“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Heather made my cat feel so comfortable while I was away. Every drop-in visit came with thoughtful, detailed updates explaining exactly how everything went. She also took the sweetest photos and getting those was such a highlight while I was traveling. I’m so grateful for how kind and patient she was with my cat, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Yen was responsive right away to my cat sitter request. It was for almost 2 weeks of daily drop ins, which is a lot! She communicated clearly through the whole booking and took great care of my two elderly cats. I’m so grateful and I will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Could not ask for a better dog sitter! Responded quickly, gave thorough updates, and ensured dogs were always comfortable and cared for! Not to mention she’s a great human. Would happily and eagerly recommend to anyone in need of pet care assistance!”
“Kelsey is the best Dog Sitter in the world! She goes above and beyond in her care for my Blue. He loves her! I have a peace of mind when she is taking care of him! Thank you so much for all you do Kelsey!”
“Alexis did a great job taking care of Bear, I received photos and feedback from every visit and she cleaned up any debris around his area. I returned to a clean environment, it was kept as if I had been home and not left. Bear really enjoyed her visits, she cared for him as though he was her personal pet. If she is available, I would book her again for house visits for my Bear.”
About: Leave your pets with someone that cares! Our family of four love all animals. I have had several animals in my family growing up. I have a strong understanding for pets and their behavior because of raising them when I was young. I will take them at any age and I am very flexible with the schedule. I have a medium size backyard and two parks to take walks right beside me. I will be your pet’s favorite sitter. I have a flexible job and kids that love to play with pets. If you are looking to have a sitter that loves pets, that would be me! I have a fenced yard and the ability to have pets sleep inside each night. I am home during the day and night time so your pet will remain safe.
“Chanahyah was absolutely amazing. She was very responsive and willing to work with me taking care of my girl! I am beyond happy I found her and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Jordan is the BEST doggo sitter! We exchanged information via email, and she made (is still making) it happen for our sweet girl who would otherwise have a very long day in her crate. Jordan is quick to respond, takes her care-giving seriously, and treats our space with respect. I'd say everyone should hire her, but if they did, I would have to elbow our way back into her schedule.”
About: I have personal experience caring for both dogs and cats. I helped care for a small family dog for about 3 years, assisting with feeding, daily care, and attention. I also independently cared for my own cat for several months, managing feeding, cleaning, and overall care. Pet care has been part of my daily routine. I would come home during lunch breaks to check on and care for my pet, and after work I handled feeding, cleaning, and attention. I’m also generally free on weekends for consistent pet care and supervision. I make sure pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following any instructions provided by the owner. I focus on keeping pets supervised, maintaining their routines, providing attention and care, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure at all times.
“Chasidee is a great cat sitter! She is dependable and went above and beyond our expectations. Our cats loved her visits, getting love from her, and all the nice treats she gave. We will definitely be using Chasidee again and recommend her highly.”
“Charytie was incredible sweet. Our dog Bella, was immediately happy when meeting her. She was great at communicating with us to ensure she met all of our standards. We found a go to girl to watch our fur baby when we're gone!”
“Thank you, Charlie! Sincerely. Our home is a handful and a half with the pets we have but he handled it professionally, was personable, thorough, and attentive. I would highly recommend him to anyone!”
“Kelsey gives me peace of mind that my two dogs are well cared for. She has given them their medication and has been helpful by picking up canned dog food to mix the meds in. From the photos and videos sent, Nala and Petal love Kelsey. Thank you Kelsey!”
“Our two low maintenance but high attention need dogs were well taken care of and Ashlee was so helpful to grab mail/packages and keep an eye on our house in general. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I was raised on a farm and have been working as a veterinary Technician for 10+ years. I have also shown dogs in obedience since I was 8 yrs old and was very successful in the show ring. I work at an animal hospital Monday through Friday. I would be taking care of your loved one before I go to work, during my lunch break and when I get off work, then before I go to bed. Since I work at a animal hospital I only get an hour lunch break and have room for only visit during my lunch break. Because of this I charge $15 for a drop in visit, $26 for morning and evening care, $36 for morning, lunch and evening care. Because I have my own animals to tend to as well, I charge $50 a night to stay at your house. I have shown and trained dogs in obedience and I’m not scared of a barking dog that is nervous because the owner is not home. I know how to safely approach a dog and gain it’s trust. I also know what to do if your dog goes off it’s food or gets to stressed because the owner is away. I offer quality service with experience in many different situations from being a vet tech at an animal hospital and working at an emergency clinic.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Abilene is $17

Kaylee did an amazing job with my kitties and I don’t feel anxious about leaving them anymore so we will be able to go on a lot more trips in the future! She made sure they were fed and happy played with them a whole bunch and sent plenty of photos! I can’t recommend her enough
I'm very glad to have booked wirh Shyla. She is wonderful and kind; we did a meeting day before the services and our dog and cat loved her since they met her. We booked drop-in visits and communicating with her while we were gone was easy and pleasant. She kept us updated every day, it gave us peace of mind to know our pets where in good hands and safe. We also have a pair of parakeets and she was happy to care for them as well, that was a relief since there's not an option on this app to include small animals. I 100% recommend her. Is not easy to let strangers into your home while you are gone, I never felt worried about her being here, on the contrary, I was happy every time I would see the notification about her starting a visit to see my pets. Thank you Shyla!

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.
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 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.
