“Cody was great! He took time to meet my German Shepherd pup and really get to know her. He took great care and entertained her. He sent plenty of photos and updates too. Would definitely use him again!”
“I do not work close to my house so after adopting 2 dogs, which are still in the puppy phase. I was looking for someone responsible and flexible to come by during the day to let them out of their crate, spend time with them letting them run & play, and just love on them. Carson has been great and exceeded my expectations. She is responsible, communicative, and keeps me updated. She sends pictures of them and how they are that day. It’s been good for me to not have to worry about someone showing up or not.”
“Devin did an excellent job looking after my two cats. She followed the instructions I left for her, sent plenty of pictures each day, and kept me informed about their individual health and behavior while I was away. This was my first time traveling without them for an extended period of time, and I'm glad I left my cats in Devin's capable hands.”
“Sass did an excellent job taking care of our 2 cats! She was able to get 3 meds into our cat with her creative food mixtures! We recommend her highly and will use her again!”
About: I am an animal lover to my core. I’ve worked with animals throughout my life helping out my neighbors, friends, family, and colleagues. I enjoy taking my own pups to the dog park and throwing a ball and watch them run around! I’m currently in college however 4 out of my five classes are online, that being said, I am unavailable from 2-4 on Monday and Wednesday. But available before or after during those days and available any day of the week. Your pup will get to play with my pups unless specified otherwise. I have a local dog park that I take all my dogs that I sit. With me, you can be sure that your dog is being cared for and I will make sure they’re being watched at all times! I’m currently in school from 1-3pm Mondays and Wednesdays but I am available throughout the week if it’s not during those times! I do not have a fenced in yard but I take my own pups to the dog park, yours are more than welcome to tag along!
“Claire was amazing with my babies!! She cared for them while I was away like they were her own. I came home to happy babies and all thanks to Claire!! I will absolutely book with her again 😻”
“Monica and Mitchell were great with our pups!! We made a last minute request and they responded super fast and did an amazing job! Our 3 labs were super happy when we returned home ☺️”
“Tatiana was the best pet sitter! This was our first time using the Rover app l, and we were nervous at first. But from my video call with Tatiana, to the meet and greet, I started to relax. Once I started getting all the videos and pictures, I knew we had found the right person. Tatiana accommodated all of our pets’ weird needs and habits, and they loved her. We will definitely book Tatiana again.”
About: Hi! My name is Carli, and I am a student at Auburn University! I am home in Birmingham for the summer and cannot wait to take great care of your pets! I have been pet sitting for about 8 years now, and I absolutely love it! I have always been a HUGE pet lover since I was young. This is also due to the fact that I have never had less than 3 dogs and one cat in my household at all times; so it is safe to say I understand the responsibilities of taking care of animals! I do think I am a great fit for the job, and I cannot wait to give your pets all of the love and attention they deserve! I currently have a part-time job, but I only work four hour shifts. So, I still have an incredibly flexible schedule in order to make your pets a priority! At my client’s home I promise to love on your babies and give them the attention they deserve! I will stay for as long as needed and follow instructions well!!
“I highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a top-notch pet sitter. She recently watched my cat, Lea, and did a great job. She was patient with my cat’s “ways” (sorry she’s not the most sociable!), but Caroline was on top with the visit cards and pictures, and very reliable. It's such a relief to find a sitter you can trust. Thank you so much, Caroline, for taking such wonderful care of my baby Lea!”
“I asked a lot from Katharine for her 30-minute visits & it seems she handled everything very well. She was very sweet and helpful. I will call on you again. Thank you! Anne Armstrong”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so pleased with how well my cat was cared for. Piper is so communicative! We had bad storms one of the days, and she made sure Jasper got the extra supplements he needed and kept me updated throughout the entire process. I will definitely have Piper take care of Jasper again!!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I was #1 dog sitter for about 5-6 neighbors through high school and college. I’ve taken care of many other dogs and cats as well. As a current medical student, I wish I could have my own dog but the time and finances won’t allow until I graduate. So for now, I can help take care of your pets and you can help me get my snuggle fix in! As a medical student, my schedule is often changing. I do have most evenings and weekends free for studying and I could always use a study partner or walk break! School is priority - but I will do my best to work with your schedule as well as my class schedule! I do currently live in an apartment, so boarding pets in my home is not a great option. I’ve stayed at very many homes to care for pets. Your pets health and safety will be my main concern - and I will always respect your home as well!
About: I love cats and dogs. I have two cats currently but grew up caring for our family dogs. I still dog sit for family members from time to time. I am passionate about animals and their well being. I am dependable and honest. I do have a full time job with weird hours so I am excited to spend my mornings working with animals. I have a calm disposition that most animals respond positively to. I look forward to hanging out with your dogs and cats. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. This minimum word count is ridiculous lol. Just twenty one more words. Almost there. Almost. Dogs are awesome. Really awesome. Thank you and have a great day! Yay! I currently work 8 to 5. I can be available for afternoons and early morning if needed. I can also have pretty open availability on the weekends. I've owned and been around pets my entire life. I understand the importance of caring for them and paying attention to their needs. I am overly cautious when it comes to pets.
About: I have had experience with dogs of every kind since I was born. I have cared for dogs of all ages between eight weeks and eighteen years old. My family had no less than four dogs and two cats when I was growing up. I got to care for large golden labs and for elderly yorkies and I love them all! I have extensive experience with all kinds of dogs, and I would love the opportunity to love on your pet. I am a college student here in Birmingham and my schedule is flexible! I can easily customize my availability and accommodate my clients as needed. Due to dorm living I am unable to have pets in my home. Due to dorm living I am unable to have pets in my home.

Kaitlyn was amazing with Stevie and Garfield! She kept me updated, sent pictures, and treated them like they were her own. It made being away so much easier knowing they were getting lots of love and attention. I came home to two happy cats and a completely stress-free experience. I’d absolutely trust Kaitlyn to watch them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
I've only ever had family members check in on my best cat buddy, Vinny, and I was apprehensive hiring a sitter for my 4 day vacation. I have to say Saskia was amazing and was able to get my shy cat to warm up to her within just a day or two. Saskia sent me plenty of pictures and her report card on her visits were thorough and put my mind at ease. She was on time at every single visit (and for our pre-interview), and she was very responsive and communicative, which I love. Vinny, my 10 year old domestic short hair became comfortable with Sas and allowed her to brush him and give scratches. He doesn't warm up to just anyone, so that says a lot. I will 100% book with Saskia going forward, and I'll recommend her to anyone who asks. 😻😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Acton on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.

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.
