“She did an amazing job taking care of my cats over the holidays. The daily photos showed how happy they were, she played with them, and even vacuumed their area without being asked. I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her care.”
“This is for the stop in visits. Allison was wonderful with our very timid dog Lola. She showed up on time, fed her, and patiently let Lola get to know her. We received photos, and several updates on things. Allison was great with her!”
About: I just love animals just like everyone else and am looking to help out. I’ve cared for animals the majority of my life as my parents had that responsibility put on me, I’ve house sit animals plenty times before. I’m available pretty much always, I’m taking the summer to rest as I am a very busy college student but I need something to keep me busy. I don’t have the most optimal space to care for a pet at my place but at your place I am very flexible and willing to accommodate as needed.
About: Growing up with pets instilled a love for all animals. I adopted my first cat 21 years ago and loved her-she was family. She inspired me to adopt even more family members, four dogs at once long ago. We now have a multi cat and dog house and would love to help take care of your family fur-babies! I currently work full-time but am available from Friday-Sunday for dog walking, home visits and overnight boarding in our home. We have a loving family with two children who love to dote on all animals. We have a large fenced yard with two playful dogs. We also have two indoor only cats. Our pets always have plenty of water, shade if outside and regular eating schedules.
About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs for just over 6 years and ran my own petting sitting business before I moved. I can administer medicine, do training reinforcement, and care for senior dogs and dogs of all temperaments. I am currently a full time student but am taking a variety of online classes so I have lots of time during the weekday and weekends. This also allows me to be free in the afternoons often. I provide dependable pet care including daily walks, overnight stays, training reinforcement, and medication/wound care. I have consistently built lasting relationships with families through frequent, responsible service.
“Thank you Tommie for taking phenomenal care of our cats! Coming home to a clean apartment, happy cats, and plants still in their pots was a great relief after a long trip. I wasn’t expecting her to, but she tidied up well after the cats and even introduced some small toys into the home for our rambunctious kitten! I’m so thankful for all your help, and the cats miss you already!”

About: I’m not as experienced in caring for dogs. However, I am flexible and willing to learn and help out wherever I am needed. I am more comfortable with small dogs for now. I’m a substitute teacher during the school year, so while school is out, I have plenty of time to drop in to give your pets companionship and care. In my own home I do my best to always make sure my cat has several sources of water and a clean litter box and plenty of ways to entertain herself while I’m away. While caring for others’ pets I make sure to follow instructions closely and follow established routines.
About: Experienced in taking care of ill and healthy dogs, they are like children to me. I seem to have a knack for homeless dogs, they trust me, they come to me - they know when someone means well. I have never found a dog that I was afraid of. Very experienced at administering medication.

“Rachel is sweet and so kind to the pets. I felt very comfortable going out of town knowing she would come check in on my cats. Excellent first experience with the app and Rachel’s services.”
About: I’ve gained most of my experience working directly with animals in a veterinary clinic, where I assist with daily care, handling, and monitoring of pets. I regularly work with dogs of all sizes and personalities everything from playful puppies to senior dogs that need a gentler approach. A big part of my role is also helping care for boarding pets at the clinic. I assist with feeding, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and ensuring medications are given accurately and on schedule. This has given me strong experience maintaining routines and providing attentive, reliable care for pets staying away from home. Outside of the clinic, I’ve also cared for pets in home settings, making sure they stay on their normal routine, get proper exercise, and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to balance structure with a calm, loving environment. I am a pre vet college student right, I have lots of free time during the weekend. I am available to house sit in the comfort of your home on the weekends Friday-sundays. I also offer dog walk during the week, more availability in the weekends. I approach pet care with a focus on safety, trust, and comfort. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I work closely with each pet parent to understand your dog’s routine, preferences, and needs. My goal is to create a calm, secure environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. Every dog is different, so I take time to build trust and adjust my care based on their personality. Whether it’s sticking to their walk schedule, maintaining their feeding routine, or helping them feel less anxious while you’re away — I work with you to create a plan that supports their well-being.

Senior NMSU student with an open schedule and love for every animal. I am reliable for walks, tidy cleanup, and patient, loving pet care. Fridays-Sundays are open and all other days are flexible. I keep pets happy with energetic walks, playtime, or gentle care. I’m experienced giving medications and will support sensitive or senior dogs and cats with patience.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog for the past three years. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their dogs.

My dog is also allowed inside the house where he can play with my kids.
“Samantha was awesome! She quickly responds when we message her. She was very flexible and helpful when we had last minute changes to our schedule. She was a good friend and caretaker of our old dog while we were away checking in when she did her drop in visits and kept us updated on how she was doing. Excellent doggy sitter.”

My current housing situation is complicated to take care of your fur babies at my home.

About: Hi! I’m currently in school studying veterinary care, and caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine. I’ve been surrounded by pets since the day I was born—from dogs and cats to small animals—and I truly can’t imagine life without them. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of pet sitting for many friends and family members, giving me hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s going on walks, giving medication, or just providing a little extra love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. With my background in animal care and my education in veterinary studies, you can feel confident your pet is in safe, knowledgeable, and loving hands. I know how much your furry family members mean to you, and I’m here to give them the best care possible while you’re away! I currently work full-time, but pet care is something I genuinely love and prioritize in my free time. I’m available for early morning and evening visits during the weekdays, and I have more flexibility on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. Even with a busy schedule, I always make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. Whether it’s a morning walk, dinner-time or feeding, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after. When caring for pets, I always follow their specific routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. For dogs, I make sure they get the exercise they need with safe, enjoyable walks tailored to their energy level and comfort. I also stick closely to their feeding schedule, ensuring they get the right food, portions, and any treats or medications they may need. When pet sitting or checking in, I spend quality time with them—whether it’s playing, cuddling, or just keeping them company so they never feel alone or anxious. For cats, I make sure their litter is clean, their food and water are fresh, and they have a calm environment to relax in. My goal is always to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.
About: I grew up on a farm just outside of hutch, so we had a large variety of animals, including but not limited to cats, dogs, and even a tortise at one point! I’d love to help meet all your needs and your animals needs in anyway possible! I recently moved to new mexico, but i am at home all day everyday! I am currently a travel nurse, but I am home a lot with my schedule, so my 5 cats and 1 dog, all are fully vaccinated get a lot of one on one time. But I love taking care of animals so that’s why I’m doing this. It fits really well into my ever changing routine. I currently live in a 56 foot Sanibel camper, but it is a pet friendly camper. My 5 cats Jezabell, Bogey, Penner, Don Julio, and Eve are very friendly and easy to get along with. They have free range food, as i tried to limit it and it just wasn’t working for them so Im trying this and it seems to work very well for them. They also have whatever they could ever want in water and toys, and I clean their litter boxes at least once a day to make them happier :) Ripley goes on walks morning and night, and is out of her kennel all day with me most days. But she is crate trained and very respectful but also playful!
About: Hi there! I’m Kris, a passionate animal lover with 30 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, belly rubs, or cozy naps on the couch, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. While I am new to the Rover app. I am not new to giving you peace of mind that your pet (of any size breed, fur or scales) will be taken care of. I work in the medical field so am comfortable with any special needs or medications should the need arise. I am also a certified (not officially) belly and head scratcher of all animals and am more than capable of playing fetch at great lengths. I will make sure to communicate with you on how your pet is doing, and am happy to provide pictures if requested. I currently work full time two days a week in the medical field. This allows for ample time off to walk, play, or drop in to check on your four legged friends. My schedule is flexible and I don’t mind holidays as long as I am in town. I currently live in an apartment so dog sitting in my home is extremely limited at this time. I am more than happy to schedule a meet and great to get to know you and your loved ones needs and style. I am also happy to take your dog out on walks, have playtime, and any needed cuddle time to help you feel better when you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 218 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Vado. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
