“Alexandra always takes such excellent care of our boys. We base our decision to be gone on whether or not she is available to care for them. You couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter”
“Valerie is truly the best! She did everything we asked and more! We highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs! Thanks a million Valerie for taking such good care of our kitty cats!”
About: I’ve been pet/house sitting since I was 13! I have experience from puppies and kittens to senior pets in diapers! I am very open to adjusting to whatever you and your pet needs to feel the most comfortable while you’re away! I am pretty flexible! I work a job at Orangetheory Fitness in Destin. Sometimes that means a few hours in the mornings or evenings I need to be at work. If necessary I’m able to find coverage fairly easily. I also do training at Eglin airforce base some days which can take a few hours of my time. Again, that is also fairly flexible when it comes to scheduling! I love to stay active-so I’m always up for making sure your pets are well cared for with the time I have around my commitments! I am more than happy to stay overnight with your pet if needed. Or, if your dog does well with others I would be happy to have them in mine. I am very flexible when it comes to arrangements for your pets care!
“Cheryl rocks! Truly a professional pet sitter with experience with all kinds of critters! I highly highly recommend her if you are in the area and in need of a sitter.”
“Clarissa was great to work with and took good care of my girl! Easy to communicate with, was extremely considerate and kind. Will gladly book with her again in the future!”
About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember, from fostering and caring for pets to gaining hands-on experience with wildlife rehabilitation growing up. Those experiences taught me patience, how to read animal behavior, and how to stay calm and attentive when an animal has unique needs. I also have a dog of my own who is a tripod, so I understand firsthand that every pet may require a different level of care, mobility support, patience, and routine. My background in healthcare has made me especially detail-oriented, dependable, and comfortable following specific care instructions. Most importantly, I’m outgoing, compassionate, and genuinely love building trust with animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and ensuring they have fun while their owners are away. As a stay-at-home dog mom, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve! I love spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, potty breaks, and fresh air can easily be part of our day. I’m also happy to adjust my routine around your pet’s normal schedule, whether that means specific feeding times, medications, extra exercise, or just plenty of snuggles and company. I have a medium sized 25 pound female dog who is incredibly friendly and loves to play with all sized dogs but also does a fantastic job minding her own business if another dog isn’t interested. I live in an apartment complex with two large fenced dog parks and are within walking distance of many safe trails. Additionally I have two dog washing stations here if needed! In client homes I am incredibly respectful and very trustworthy of whatever rules and wishes are stated to ensure the highest level of care for your pet!
“Nadia was one of the absolute best sitters I have used in last 3 years. She did everything we asked and even went above average to ensure Harley was comfortable during inclement weather. We had a last minute and same day sitter cancelation and Nadia saved our vacation. She is very reliable and thorough...... 5 stars is not enough.”
“We had a great experience with Erika. She handled drop-in visits reliably, was caring with our pet, and followed all instructions carefully. It was reassuring to know our pet was in such attentive and trustworthy hands.”
“Ginny was fantastic! She was dedicated to caring for our animals! She was also happy to send pictures along of our happy pets which made it all more comfortable knowing they were in good hands while we away on vacation! Thank you Ginny!!”
“Caitlyn has been sitting almost a month for my fur baby. Shes fabulous. Goes above and beyond and loves on my dog and even the cat. Always gracious in providing my working dog with alot of exercise. She provides wonderful report cards each visit. Most of all my pets enjoy her company and I feel at ease.”
“Can't recommend Gina enough, she really went above and beyond in taking care of our cat while we were away for a week. She is kind, thoughtful, responsible, timely and provided us with plenty of updates, photos and videos, which were so appreciated. She even took the extra steps of handling our mail and packages while we were away. She was very sweet with our kitty and was so thorough in tidying his litter box room that it looked even cleaner than we had left it when we returned home! Gina is amazing and we will definitely be booking her again!!”
About: i’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, I love animals so much and always will be with them at any house😁. i am responsible i’m currently working part time and i still in school, but i still have tons of time to play and hang out with pups! I usually work 10-2 or 4-8 on weekdays I have fenced in backyard, and can easily crate animal up if needed. I can feed them and listen to rules about the house so yay
“We were very pleased with the care Liznel gave our kitties! She was available to watch them after our initial Rover person cancelled the week of our vacation. She was flexible with drop off and pickup and handled giving them meds very well. The cats adapted to their new home well and enjoyed the attention from Liznel and her daughter. A great experience overall.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been walking and caring for dogs for over 9 years, and I currently share my home with six animals of my own, so I truly understand how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. I absolutely love both dogs and cats and enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing outside, or just needs a calm companion, I’m happy to match their pace and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Because I’m a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always focus on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. I’m reliable, attentive, and love sending updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is having a great time. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐶🐱 I'm currently working part time two days a week as a registered nurse. When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my own pets and volunteering at Panhandle animal welfare society in their clinic, recovering dogs and cats after spay/neuter surgery, as well as walking dogs. When I am caring for your animals, I will be focused on their needs 100%. I've been caring for animals in foster, at the shelter where I volunteer and at my home for the last nine years.
“Alexis was very flexible and kept us up to date. We had to make last minute changes to our travel plans and she worked with us very well. She took very good care of our little pup :) Thank you Alexis!”
About: I’ve always had pets. I grew up with dogs, cats and now chickens I had a pit bull named Molly Elizabeth for 12 years. She had a wonderful life with my family. The new addition to the household is Sadie Mae. She is a furry Golden ball of energy! She is well taken care of and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to spoil your pets too. I’m currently working part-time, I’ll have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets as needed, full-time. Having a dog of my own, my previous experience with pets, and my growing experience with Rover, pet care is more than just a side hustle for me. It’s a lifestyle. This makes me equipped to handle a variety of needs. I take great care of my dog and chickens. Attention to detail is important. Thank you for your consideration in trusting me to care for your pets and home too.

Erika did a wonderful job taking care of my cat, Tig. I really appreciate that she spent time with him and even went the extra step to refresh his water and sweep up. This is the second time she’s watched Tig, and she continues to be reliable and caring. Highly recommend!

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.

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 .

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 .
