About: Hello! I’m Mileydi, I have spent more than 11 years caring for pets of all sizes and needs. Over the years, I have looked after many wonderful animals, which has given me a deep understanding of pet behavior and specialized care.I am highly experienced in managing diabetic dogs, meaning I am fully comfortable performing glucometry checks and administering daily insulin shots. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet who needs medical attention, so my goal is to provide total peace of mind. I closely follow all routines and will keep you updated with photos every single day! As an independent gig worker, my schedule is highly flexible. I can easily plan my delivery hours around my pet-sitting bookings, ensuring I am always available for feeding times, scheduled walks, and plenty of play or companionship throughout the day. Safety is my top priority. I carefully follow all specific care, feeding, and household guidelines provided by owners. I maintain a clean, secure environment, double-check all entryways, and ensure your pets are safe, comfortable, and never left unattended for extended periods

About: I can’t remember a time that I have never had an animal. I have 2 dogs that love going on walks and running on our 3 acre farm. We have barns cats, inside and outside house cats. All are strays that have been fixed and vaccinated. I would love to care for your pets too. We own a small business in town and would be able to check in on your pets before, during and after work if needed. I’m very dependable and trustworthy. I don’t have anyone helping me care for your pets but rest assured, they will be cared for in your home with me. My dogs love going on walks so I make it a priority to give them exercise. We rescued a cat that had a severely injured leg. She had to have it amputated but that doesn’t stop her from doing anything she sets her mind to it. She has a friend, which is another rescue and both love each other.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I used to be certified in Veterinary Assisting when I lived out of state and worked at a dog day care and boarding facility for many years. I do work a full time job at a bank, so I have availability every afternoon to help fit in evening walks. With that being said, most of my weekends are also free. I have a fenced in yard that keeps my dogs contained while they are out and provides ample amount of running space. I have experience and knowledge in group play.

“Kyla was wonderful with our 2 cats. Her time was flexible and she was easy to book with over Christmas. During our initial meet and greet, the natural way she interacted with both Magik and Spooky, learning her history with animals, and her authenticity put my nerves at ease. During our time away, Kyla kept us up to date on her visits, how our cats were doing and included pictures. When we returned home, both cats were happy doing great. Kyla will be our go to anytime we are away.”

About: I’ve cared for pets for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and genuinely love animals. I stick to your pet’s routine, give them lots of attention, and treat them like part of my own family while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care and plenty of attention. I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine and will keep you updated with messages and photos throughout their stay. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I take that responsibility seriously and treat every pet as if they were my own. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and pay close attention to a pet’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and at home.

About: I've had pets pretty much my whole life, both dogs and cats. In the past two years I have begun fostering cats and working hard to TNR the strays in my neighborhood. I have several of my own cats who I spend time with daily, and I also dedicate a lot of time to cat rescue. My girlfriend and I have fostered cats, including several litters of kittens, and work hard to TNR our neighborhood strays. The safety of your pets is my top priority. Please let me know ahead of time of any potential safety concerns. I will gladly accommodate as needed to ensure everyone stays happy and healthy.

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.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 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.
