About: I have grown up around all kinds of dogs, from chihuahuas to house hippos. I am always determined to win over a dog’s trust and affection. I’m a college student with a lot of time on her hands. Most of my classes are online this semester so I have a very flexible schedule. I will always respect your dog’s boundaries and I’ll do my best to ensure their safety. I’m very thorough and detail oriented so any rules you set will be followed to a T.
About: I will take great care of your fluffy! I have had years of experience with both house pets and farm animals! I’ve spent many years working on farms and have worked professionally as an in-home pet sitter for two years. I’ve had experience with elderly animals, puppies/kittens, special needs animals, and with administering medications. I am home full time, with plenty of availability to care for your fur babies! The backyard is fully fenced and there is a dog park close by! We have a spacious house that your pup is free to roam. The backyard is medium sized, safe and well enforced. We have a safe quiet neighborhood that is excellent for long walks, and the dog park is only three minutes down the road!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat of my own! Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m new to the area and excited to meet other pet lovers in the community! In addition to caring for my own pets, I regularly pet sit for family members when they travel, so I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable, happy, and on their usual routines while their people are away. I also have experience administering medications and caring for my dog with epilepsy, so I understand that some pets need a little extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I’m happy to work with you to understand your pet’s individual needs and make sure they receive thoughtful, reliable care. I’m open to all kinds of pet care, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting while you’re away! Whether your pet is an energetic pup who needs a good walk, a senior pet who needs a slower pace, or a shy kitty who just needs some company, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I know firsthand that pets are family, and I would treat yours with the same love and care I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! 🐶🐱💕 I’m currently a master’s student and work from home, so my schedule is very flexible! I’m home with my own pets most of the day and typically don’t leave them alone for more than 2–4 hours at a time. Having a dog with epilepsy has also made me especially mindful of providing attentive, consistent care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual routine and needs, whether that means daily walks, drop-in visits, daytime companionship, or caring for them while you’re away. I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved! In My Home: I have a fenced-in backyard and three friendly dogs who may be happy to have a new playmate! I’ll make sure any introductions are safe and appropriate for your pup’s personality and comfort level. Whether your dog loves playing with other dogs or prefers relaxing and getting one-on-one attention, I’ll do my best to accommodate their needs and keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. I want your pup to feel at home while you’re away! In Your Home: I’ll follow your instructions closely and stick to your pet’s usual routine as much as possible. Whether that means walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to provide the care your pets need. I know how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your furry family members, and I’ll treat both with respect and care!
About: I’ve had dogs for all my life. I have taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors. I also have experience with cats, fish, birds, and even some reptiles! I have some experience with bathing and walking. I have no problem cleaning up after them if they have an accident :) I am available at anytime for owners’ peace of mind. I want to advance my range of experience with all kinds of dogs and at any time of day. I believe in maintaining a peaceful but fun and interactive environment for my dogs. Due to the dogs maybe feeling unsure or nervous around new people I will never force them out of their comfort zone. The dog is entitled to its own space.

About: I’ve cared for animals throughout my life and professionally work in veterinary medicine, where I care for dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all personalities, ages, and energy levels, and I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s individual routine. My veterinary experience has also taught me to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall well-being. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, attention, and the same love I give my own. My schedule gives me flexibility for pet care, especially evenings, weekends, and days when I’m not working. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific routine and make sure I only accept bookings that I can give my full attention to. I’m especially interested in weekend boarding, drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I take pet safety seriously and treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. My veterinary experience has taught me to be attentive to behavior, health changes, medications, feeding routines, and individual needs. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully, provide regular updates, and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable in a safe environment. I also have a small fenced in yard.

“Mel did such a great job at making sure my fur baby was taken care of while I was away! With the few instructions I gave him, my kitty was all set and looked after and I felt at ease the entire time I was away! Especially with all the pictures!!! Thanks so much Mel !!”
“Leana is great! Very communicative while we were away and kept us updated with pictures of the both the kitties which I really appreciated. Also, the house was definitely cleaner than how i left it which was so nice. I came home to happy cats and a clean house, which is pretty much the dream when you have to travel. I would absolutely trust Leana to care for our pets again and highly recommend!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Universal City
Brianna worked her magic on these two cats which being old and set in their ways, they are more relaxed and pleasant. In fact, when I returned they me met me at the door, I think they expected Brianna, as it was close to the visit time. I know she worked hard to get Nala out from under the bead and is acting more relaxed. This is surely the type of care giver we desire to look after our four-legged friends.
Kimberly has watched our animals multiple times. She always goes above and beyond to make sure they are cared for. When she arrived at our house this last time, she found water all over our kitchen! She cleaned everything out under the sink, turned our water off, dried every off, and put our rugs outside to dry. I can’t imagine the mess we would have been in if she did not take care of this for us. We are so thankful for her help!
Jasmine was awesome and I would definitely use her services for my outdoor cat again! She made sure to send me detailed updates every day along with pictures. She is very friendly, great with animals, and easy to talk to, I would recommend her to anyone who needs help caring for their pets!
It’s been a few months since we had Angela cat sit for us. Since she had been her before, she was ok w us leaving a key hidden and photo instructions since it had been months since she has seen our cats. Cleo always comes out because she is social, but was so thrilled that our shy girl Luna came out for Angela as it takes a few visits. She came out after a few minutes and again today. I always will use Angela for our cats, she’s a great asset to the Rover app! Thank you for the wonderful care, as always!
5/5 Stars – Highly Recommended! Elizabeth did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my cat. From our very first interaction, it was clear that she is a true animal lover who treats pets with the utmost care and respect. She was incredibly reliable and followed all feeding and care instructions perfectly. What I appreciated most were the regular updates and photos she sent, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My cat, who can sometimes be shy around new people, warmed up to her and enjoyed her attention. Elizabeth went above and beyond to make sure my cat felt safe, loved, and comfortable. I cannot thank Elizabeth enough for her exceptional service. I will absolutely be hiring her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
