About: Hi! I go by Kat and since I was ten I've been around animals, from living on a farm with three Great Pyrenees, four Australian Shephards, two Pugs, and two chihuahuas and numerous litters and a cat rescue of twenty-six cats to my current situation of three dogs and six cats. I have also owned rats, mice, rabbits, and a gecko, so I have experience with all sorts of pets. Aside from what I own, I have cared for cockatiels, doves,geckos, a lorikeet, great danes, and pittbulls. I also worked at a vet office for a year before I started college, and seven months at a cat hospital in Maine, along with six months of professional cat boarding. Currently I work part time night shifts so I cannot do any drop ins after 9pm or before 8am. I work part time nights only and am available all weekend, Friday through Sunday, full time, so I will have plenty of time to ensure your pets will be well cared for! I am very flexible with how to care for pets, from crate training to leashed walks or free roaming. My animals are a mixture of them all, crate trained when guests are over and free-roaming during the day when I'm outside with them.
About: I’ve watched multiple of my family members dogs, ranging from big to little dogs. I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I also enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood or to the park. I’m currently taking care of my grandma so I don’t really have a set schedule. So I’m always willing to help out. I have a dachshund and she is very nice towards animals and people so if I were to house sit she would also be very welcoming.
“Micaela did a drop-in on my dogs on a very short notice. That was very much appreciated. She did everything I asked. My dogs seemed to take to her so that was nice to see. She took lots of pics and updated me when she got there and when she left. I would have her take care of my “babies” any time. Thanks Micaela!?”
About: Hi! I’ve worked as a kennel technician for about a year and a half and have experience caring for dogs in a boarding/daycare environment. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, cleaning, handling high-energy dogs, recognizing signs of stress or discomfort, and providing a calm and safe environment for pets. I also have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions to help keep pets comfortable and on schedule while their owners are away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and understand the importance of patience, consistency, cleanliness, and paying attention to behavior changes. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to provide updates/photos during visits so owners can feel reassured while away from home. I currently work part-time, so my availability may vary week to week. However, I keep my schedule updated and am happy to accept bookings that fit around my work schedule. I’m especially interested in flexible drop-ins and short-term care. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I always try to follow routines closely, pay attention to behavior changes, and provide a calm and patient environment. With my kennel/daycare experience, I’m comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels while making sure pets are cared for safely and responsibly.
“Rusty has been great with my dog, Kota! Since Kota can be nervous around new people, we scheduled a meet-and-greet prior to any visits. Rusty took the time to get to know his quirks, and allowed for a slow introduction. He has been very reliable and flexible, and always provides detailed updates. I highly recommended booking with Rusty!”
About: I have worked in the pet industry for 10 years. I have done everything from cleaning kennels, to working as a vet assistant in a clinic. I also have experience with farm and exotic animals. I currently don't have furbabies of my own, but I find them very therapeutic to interact with. Life is boring without furbabies in my life. I will enter the home as instructed by owners, and proceed in a professional manner. I will use my education as a vet assistant and future vet tech to ensure the animal(s) experience minimal upheaval of their daily routines.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tunnelhill
Amanda was AMAZING! She went out of her way to do a meet and greet before we left for vacation and fell in love with our senior dog from the second they met in our driveway. Our old grey pitbull barked at her and Amanda went right in for the belly rubs and didn’t skip a beat…. they were friends at first sight. She gave detailed check ins and made sure we felt comfortable and were able to enjoy our trip knowing our cats and dogs were safe at home. She monitored their eating and water intake and even dealt with the cats bringing in “gifts” from outside and made it no big deal even though to us we know that’s definitely an above and beyond ask lol. We can’t wait to book Amanda again so our animals can hang out with their new friend again soon.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 143 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tunnelhill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
