“Dana was fantastic with my dogs and cat while I was away. She gave great updates and pictures and everyone was happy and well when I got home. Her experience was apparent from start to finish and our dogs and cat all loved her.”
“Madison was very prompt and even showed up early for drop ins. She handled our babies with care and made sure they were well taking care of. Will definitely use her again in the future if we are away from the home again!”
About: I have taken care of 10+ dogs that stayed in my home. I like to take them on walks and give them the attention they love they need! I am a college student who only has class three days a week. I like to go on walks and exercise. I do homework in my apartment for the most part. I have all the free time in the world and would love to take care of your pets for mutual companionship! I do not have a yard in my home but I have beautiful trails and green spaces where I would walk or run with your pup! I have a living room where the dog would be fed. In a clients home I would feed pets in the designated feeding area and would take them outside and spend time with them!

About: I am a long time pet owner with hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and fish. I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when leaving your pet in someone else's care. I currently have two pets of my own and I am very attentive to routines, personalities, and individual needs. I have experience with daily care tasks such as feeding, walks, litter box maintenance, playtime, brushing, and providing companionship. I'm comfortable with pets who need a little extra patients, including senior pets, shy cats, and animals who prefer calm, consistent care. I approach pet sittign the way I would want someone to care for my own pets. What sets me apart is my calm, dependable approach and strong focus on trust. I'm organized, communicative, and respectful of both pets and homes. I currently work full time during the day Monday-Friday. I offer pet sitting services such as check ins before and after work on weekdays. I also will consider overnight house/pet sitting in the local area through the week. I am willing to do overnight house/pet sitting at greater distances on Friday and Saturday nights. I don't rush visits, and I take time to make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I'm especially mindful of routines and instructions, and I provide updates so owners feel reassured while they're away. I work best with clients who value reliability, clear expectations, and thoughtful care over a one-size-fits-all approach.
About: I’m a student at UWG, sadly I couldn’t take my dogs with me but I’m hoping rover opens up an opportunity for me to still be around animals! I have pet sit multiple times before for friends but have never signed up for an app, I’m excited to get started! I’m currently in school, but only for around 4 hours a day so I am very flexible and have plenty of time to care for your pets! If I am house sitting, I will walk them through whatever routine is told to me, and be sure to play with them often. I will make sure all of the doors are locked when entering and leaving the house, and make sure all belongings stay safe.
About: I’m here to help! I’ve worked with dogs from puppies to seniors. But also worked with dogs with behavioral problems and overall shy dogs. Also have trained a few dogs as well! I’m always available on weekends but on week days I’m free after 4:30pm to walk and check up on any of your pets! And if it’s in the only on week days it would be anytime before 8:30am. I’m huge into following directions and having good communication with my clients. Making sure I know if there’s any triggers or problems your pets have before service.
About: Hi! I’m Mya, and I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. I’ve always had pets and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all different personalities. I currently have an 8-year-old cat named Frankie. She’s very sweet and independent and prefers to keep her distance from visiting pets, so I make sure every animal has a comfortable space and take introductions at a relaxed pace. When your pet stays with me, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping them as close to their normal routine as possible. I’m happy to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so I’ll keep you updated throughout their stay with pictures and messages. I’d love to meet you and your pet! I work Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 7 PM, so my boarding schedule is best suited for weekends and overnight stays. For weekday boarding, I prefer drop-offs after 7 PM when I’m finished with work and can give your pet my full attention. If you need care for a few hours in the evening after 7 PM, feel free to message me and I’ll be happy to discuss availability. Weekend drop-offs and pickups are flexible and can be arranged in advance. I have two cats in my home who are very friendly and love all animals, they are very well socialized. However, they can be moved to different rooms if that is what’s best for your fur baby.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life. Throughout college and after, I have had two dogs and two cats of my own. One of my past job experiences is as a vet tech so I have a bit of handling/caring for all types of animals. I currently have a senior doggie so I am able to provide senior dog (or cat) care if needed as I know having older dogs requires more patience and understanding (which should be regardless of any age) due to it being hard to get up and move around than the younger babies. I will go over and beyond to make sure your fur baby (or babies) are comfortable with me as they normally are with you! I am in my 2nd year of medical school and currently studying at home for a couple exams so can easily make time to care for your baby as a drop in or while staying in my home with my dog, Pixie. I have a fenced in yard and large single family home which I have one room that is completely empty that could be ”the fur baby(ies) room” if need be. I can also bring my study stuff over to spend the day studying and playing with your baby in their own safe environment, but will need to run home occasionally to take care of my own dog, Pixie.

Paul did a wonderful job looking after my two fur babies. Even if they weren't very sociable with him! His daily reports and his pictures of them ( when he could actually find them) were very reassuring while I was away. I appreciate the peace of mind Paul gave me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 513 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Abilene. 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.
