About: I’m a huge animal lover and have been around all kinds of pets all of my life! Chickens, dogs, cats, iguanas, birds, snakes, and even rats, ferrets, and guinea pigs. I have two large, energetic dogs of my own (Doberman and a Cane Corso) so I’m very comfortable handling big, strong, high-energy breeds. I also regularly walk and care for my mother-in-law’s Pomeranian, so I’m as happy working with little dogs and their very big personalities! I’m a cat lover originally, so I’m comfortable caring for cats and understand that they have their own personalities, boundaries, and routines. Whether your pet is big, small, energetic, shy, or just wants some company and attention, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and help keep them happy, active, and cared for while you’re away! I’m a full-time student and also work full-time during the week, so my pet care availability is focused on weekends. I’m happy to dedicate my weekends to walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets! I do not currently offer boarding services. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’ll also respect your home and keep you updated so you know your pet is safe and happy.
About: I’ve lived with a dog for 6 years of my life and have loved every moment of it. I am agile and energetic, and can keep up with even the most playful of dogs. I love going on walks on my own time whenever I can, so adding your dog to my little routine will do nothing but good for all of us. I’m currently on a break between high school and college, so pet time can be scheduled at almost any time of the day, any day of the week. Very few things will get in the way, and if they do, they will be indicated on my schedule. My schedule fills up sporadically, but most of it can be reserved for pets. I am very respectful of any home I enter, and will make sure to leave your space better than I found it. I will keep my eyes on your pet throughout the duration of my time with them, and will make sure that they are safe the entire time.
About: I have years of experience in cat rescue but I also love dogs! I would love to become your dog’s new friend and learn all their favorite things. I currently work part-time and my schedule is flexible, especially on weekends. I am available for drop-in visits and short walks during the week as well. I have cats at home, and making sure they’re healthy, happy, and spoiled is my top priority! In my experience, a cat who is engaged with play and affection is a cat who feels safe and is less likely to be destructive.
“Chanel was very sweet and responsive. Always making sure to send updates on how my kitty was doing and kindly helped water my garden plants too. Highly recommend for your pet sitting needs.”
“Zoe & Ava did a great job watching our 3 cats for a week while we were traveling internationally. During one of their visits they found an issue with one of our feeding devices. They communicated the issue well and were able to resolve it promptly! I would recommend!”
About: I have always had a soft spot for animals, I even empathize with the crickets and the critters. I have worked in doggy daycare settings, where I have given baths, nails trims, Bordatella Vaccines as well as created special relationships with pets and parents. Additionally I have also done dog walking, dog sitting and fostered. During each and every interaction, I treat every pet as my own, I’m patient and I’m understanding. I’m excited to make new friends! I do work full time, however i always work around that schedule. Most of my current clients ask for a couple of walks throughout the day. Typically what that looks like is, we do a walk first thing in the morning, breakfast, a walk before my shift, and a walk after my shift and dinner. My most frequent client usually has me stay with him overnight, at my home, and during my work day he stays primarily at his home Usually I always ask what the client prefers. Whether that be free roaming, crated or gated off in a specific area in the home. My most frequent client asks that pup be gated into one room that way pup has the options to move around a bit more and also not get into anything. I typically do not do overnights at clients homes, however I will be present for however long, and I am capable of being up and at it as early as possible to make sure pups needs are met
“Abigail was an amazing cat sitter for my cat Mochi! She went above and beyond—bringing toys, giving super thoughtful care, and always being on time and responsive. Her daily report cards (with photos!) were the best part of my day. Mochi was so happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking her again! I highly recommend booking with Abigail”
“Julianne was a great sitter for our two cats. She was prompt with the scheduled timing, followed care instructions thoroughly and to completeness, ensured that our guys were healthy and happy, and would play with them for any extra time she had during the visits. We also really appreciated the pictures of our cats that she’d send after every visit. Our cats get antsy/restless when we get back from weekend trips when we leave extra food/water and forego a check-in, but they were clearly relaxed and calm when we got back: the best sign to see that they were well taken care of while we were away. Thank you again Julianne for your great care of Chai and Bean, and I’m sure they will see you again when we next go out of town!”
“Mary did a lovely job taking care of Kitten and sharing daily updates and photos. It was great to know Kitten was in such good hands while I was out of town. Would definitely recommend Mary for any pet sitting needs and will book again!”
“Heather is a polite and charming young person who took excellent care of my two elderly cats when I was away for 8 days. Everything was neat and the cats were just fine without me, thanks to Heather.”
“Ava has been such a big help when we had to leave town for family emergency. My dog warmed up to her right away and he usually takes a minute. I can tell she didn’t just come by to let him out and feed him for a drop in, she played with him and made him feel loved which I really appreciate! She even volunteered to poop scoop in the yard what a rockstar”
“Morgan took the most incredible care of my baby!! I came home to the happiest kitty, which is difficult because he has such high social needs! Morgan made sure he was snuggled and had plenty of playtime and kept me updated with pictures and messages! Thank you Morgan for loving on my baby! ❤️🐈⬛”
About: I've lived in homes with pets of all kinds since early childhood, and love all animals! I have owned two special-needs dogs over the last 15 years, and feel comfortable with challenging pet situations. I tailor my care to the needs and personality of each animal. I'm passionate about making animals feel safe and loved! My children are in school full-day, and my other work consists of odd jobs, so I have lots of flexibility to take care of your animals on a schedule that works for them! I treat every pet and every home like it was my own. I will leave your home in the same condition it was in when I arrived, and give your pet the love and care s/he deserves!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Welby
Jenny really spent time with my cat! I have had other cat sitters (from Rover) who spent 5 or 10 minutes, but Jenny spent 25-30 minutes to give my cat some play time and lots of love. I have a camera on my front door so I know how long the sitter stays. Jenny sent regular updates and was easy to work with.
Laura checked on our cat while we were away during the holidays. Laura is very responsive to all communication. She provided daily updates with pictures (even though our cat is super shy). It was great knowing that someone was checking on him every day. Laura, thank you so much for taking care of Fez!
McKenna took great care of our 2 cats while we were out of town. She fed them, played with them, and gave them attention. She left our house just as clean as when we left and took care of a excited eater's vomit. The cats love having her visit and we know they are in good hands.

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 .

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.
