“Elaine did another excellent job looking after my two cats! She even took extra time to get to know the shy one and to clean up a few unpleasant messes from the not-so-shy one.”

About: Dogs have been my greatest passion since childhood. Over the years, I’ve worked with a massive variety of breeds. I have experience with all seven American Kennel Club breed groups. My background includes caring for young puppies, managing multiple pet households, and specialized care for senior pets needing medication. I treat every client's dog with the same love and affection I would give my own. I have plenty of free time to drop in, walk, feed, and play with your furry friend. I am generally free every weekday Monday through Friday. I am usually available any time of day, even night time visits depending on what your schedule needs. I should be able to alter my schedule and negotiate pet care upon request if my other responsibilities allow for it, this may include weekends and holidays. Unfortunately, my place of residence does not have capacity for overnight stays or boarding. But I would be happy to visit your pet in their home to ensure their comfort and happiness. Just provide clear and descriptive instructions and schedules and I will be sure to follow them. If I have any questions i will be sure to reach out!

About: Not just have I grown up around animals of all kinds but I have taken care of several friends and families pets to ensure their well being while the owners were away. I currently am not limited to hours to come to care of your furry babies! I’m willing to work around most people’s needs within almost any hours!. I prefer to be able to go to your house to provide any care you’re seeing fit. Such as visiting your pet/animals keeping them active with play time, keep them outside as much as possible for exercise/potty time. I can make sure they are fed/watered. Just providing that time they need to get through the time you’re away.

About: Current active duty Marine stationed here in Beaufort. Have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life (and goats) and miss caring for and interacting with animals. I have a passion for dog training and would be more than happy to help anyone with the basics. I’m super active and can handle high energy dogs too. Thank you in advance for choosing me! I am currently an active duty Marine Corps Officer here in Beaufort! I am a single guy and have a ton of time during the early mornings, lunch time, and evenings to care for your animals! I live in an apartment so I unfortunately cannot board animals in my home. I am a huge softie for animals and treat any as if they were my own. I am honored to have the trust of my clients to watch a member of their family.

About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs and animals. I have kept older dogs, puppies, very large dogs, smaller dogs, deaf and blind animals, and I love them all. I am a huge dog person and I love to be able to take care of them when it’s needed. I’m a freshman in college in Beaufort, my schedule usually looks like me being done with class around 12:00 every day. However, this will change when the new semester starts. I’m usually pretty flexible with help & timing. I care for pets in the clients home however they would like. I am flexible and want to meet the clients/ dogs needs. I do not have preferences as to what needs to be done for the animals. I would say I’m knowledgeable and can provide care that meets your requirements.

About: I have worked with some insulin needs, continuing training for puppies, multiple pet homes and long durations of 2weeks plus when family has to be away. I enjoy the connection with pets and families that I've made over the years. Also I love sending picture updates too. I am a self employed Massage Therapist which allows me full control of the schedule to ensure quality care for all patients, clients, and pets. I have 3 cats in home and my mom has an outdoor cat on property. All are spayed/neutered. Strangely my 3 are siblings; Buddy and Carmella from 1st litter and Little Brother from 2nd litter. All 3 are always ready for feeding times to eat together. The brothers play and the littermates play but Carmella keeps LB in check. They're so fun to be around. Little Miss enjoys being close and follows us around on property will always take a pet and super friendly.

My pets loved Jessica! She communicates well, asks great questions, and receives feedback well. She took great care of my fur babies, followed all the instructions to the T, and left my house clean and tidy. I will absolutely be booking with Jessica again.

Caroline took perfect care of our 16 year old blind kitty, Mosby, while we were away for a few days. He is shy, but she made friends with him easily and kept him comfortable.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Academy Estates

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Academy Estates is $14 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $19 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 43 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Academy Estates. 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 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 with handling special pet needs in Academy Estates. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% can help with daily exercise

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 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.
