“Lisa was kind and our cat, Felicia, happily went to her when she came to meet the cats pre-visit. She checked in and sent pictures. We were very thankful for her help.”
“Angela was great! She came to meet Kitty before we left on our trip to get to know her, which really made me feel good that she would not be a stranger on her first visit. She came and did everything we asked: food, water, and played with her. She also took lots of pictures so we knew that Kitty was doing well! It was such a relief knowing that Kitty was in good hands with Angela! Thanks!!”
About: Hi, I'm Gary! With over 30 years of dedicated experience in animal rescue, rehabilitation, and caregiving, your pets will be in highly capable and loving hands. My approach centers on a simple truth: pets are family, and every single one is a unique individual who deserves personalized care, respect, and patience. My extensive background in animal welfare grew in stages. I started decades ago with local strays and rescues, learning the foundations of animal behavior and ensuring our community cats and neighbors pets were safe and healthy. By 1997, I started volunteering with the Inland Valley Humane Society. Later, I volunteered with the Yolo County SPCA while attending UC Davis, learning from top veterinary professionals from the top veterinary school in the nation. Upon graduation, I volunteered with multiple animal welfare groups elsewhere in the state, synthesizing this institutional knowledge helping numerous rescue groups in the Inland Empire socializing dogs and cats, managing several cat colonies, and assisting fosters and pet owners with specialized support for sick and injured wards. While I am not a veterinarian and can never diagnose ailments, I am exceptionally experienced in the rehabilitation and recovery process. Through it all, I have become uniquely qualified to ensure your pets' safety and well-being. I have worked with animals from about every point on the socialization continuum --- all of them with very unique personality quirks. Every animal is an individual. And, while broad themes can be drawn, understanding and catering to individuaistic needs divides true caregiving from generalized maintenance. Even the most experienced rescuer and caregiver must remain humble and adaptible. Like people, no two are the same. I look forward to meeting your delightful pets and helping you with your pet care needs. The type of care they deserve! I am not altogether sure what this prompt is asking because animal care isn't necessarily something that always conveniently fits into one's schedule. I've done hour long socialization visits, companionship visits, all the way to all-nighters providing fluids and medications to parvo afflicted puppy liters. An animal's well-being and quality of life are the only components we must consider. Whether that's a bit of exercise, a clean water bowl with nutrious food, a nervous pet with separation anxiety, socialization needs, or treatment and rehabilitation, they all have to be considered as fundimental to a pet's welfare. My experience has exposed me to just about everything I can think of. I will be teaching soon, hopefully for the Fort Worth ISD or some other local public school district, but work has never been a constraint. Pet welfare is a 24/7 affair when the lives and well-being of our family members are at stake. Boarding outside of their familiar territory is not the most ideal situation for an animal. However, I have several crates, x pens, toys, portable catteries, etc. with which to provide them a sense of comfort and security, so long as we fill that space with things for which they can find a sense of familiarity. But, again, I prefer to not remove a pet from the territory where they feel most comfortable whenever possible. Not only are they separated from their guardian, they would then be in a new environment, with new scents, new sights, new social dynamics, new animals, etc. It's not the most comfortable situation for them to put it mildly. For creatures that derive their security from routine and familiarity, one change can be overwhelming; but multiple changes can send them spiraling. And traumatizing a pet is the very antithesis of caregiving, in my opinion. However, after a few visits and they get to know and trust their caregiver, these dynamics can change dramatically. But, the key is always make their visit as seamless and comforting as possible. With that stated, routine is the most reassuring agent. The times they eat, exercise, sleep, take medications, treats, etc, whatever their schedule is, adhering to it as strictly as you can is crucial. That's how a caregiver maintains tranquility in a period of potential high anxiety for pets.
About: ⸻ I have 5 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, including dogs and cats. I truly love animals and treat them like family. I can handle energetic puppies, playful cats, and older pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m reliable, trustworthy, and focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals every day as long as I’m not in class. I am flexible with mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I make sure pets get plenty of attention, play, and care throughout the week. I always focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free while in their own home. I carefully follow feeding and care instructions, keep things clean, and give plenty of love and attention so owners can feel at ease.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westover Hills
Very kind, great at communication and most importantly great at getting to know your pet. She made my first experience using Rover an amazing one. TBH, 1 of my dogs has a hard time trusting people while the other is easy going. She turned that around and gave me a peace of mind knowing and feeling that both of my dogs were cared for.
So sweet and very accommodating! She updated me with pictures of my cat’s litter boxes, food station, and my kitty that wanted to come out. My cats seemed to enjoy her presence and I can’t thank her enough for helping me out on such short notice. Thank you Michele!
Heather is amazing! She has watched our kitties for us a couple of times now and we are grateful to have someone trustworthy when we are out of town. Our kitties are pretty shy, so it has been amazing having someone who can meet our kitties where they are at and create a comfortable environment for them while we are gone. I highly recommend Heather and we will be using her every time moving forward! ⭐️🐾🤩
Was able to come before the booking to meet Maverick as he was a recent adoptee to the family and got along great with him. Super friendly and understanding and continues to be a great sitter for when I’m out of town. Asks questions and follows instructions and very responsive. Thank you once again!
Always glad to rebook with Hana to take care of my cat while I’m out of town. Hana even went the extra mile this time and put out food for some neighborhood cats that hang out on my porch. Also, this time, my cat is having some new health issues which made it hard for me to leave her for a week. But, I felt so much more comfortable knowing Hana was keeping an eye on her. I’d recommend Hana to anyone.
Adelaide was fantastic! My dog is normally nervous around new people but she warmed up to Adelaide right away. Adelaide was very responsive, made sure to keep us updated throughout the duration of our trip, and always uploaded photos from her visits with our pup. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!
First time visit at sitter Sarah’s home, along with several other dogs around; wonderfully warm and welcoming atmosphere; very pet-friendly; GREAT grassy backyard; my dog Nikita felt super comfortable there, with Sarah and with the other dogs; excited to have Nikita experience future DayCare and Boarding in Sarah’s care.

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.

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.
