About: Hello! My name is Haley and I am excited to be able to help you in your pet care experience! I am a proud owner of two cats, a puppy and a snake. I have spent my life growing up around animals and training them as well. I know what love and care is needed for your animals as I will take care of them the same I would take care of mine. I have come to learn that patience, love and fun are the best qualities to have when caring for any animals. I will be sure to take the time and dedication that is needed to ensure your animal feels safe, loved and well taken care of while you are unavailable. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask! * I work with a flexible schedule, which allows me to consistently build pet care into my daily routine. * As a pet owner myself, animal care is already a major part of my everyday life. * I intentionally plan my schedule to give pets reliable attention instead of rushed drop-ins. * I prioritize: * Feeding and fresh water * Playtime and enrichment * Litter box cleaning and maintenance * Medication routines if needed * Quality interaction and companionship * I understand how important consistency and routine are, especially for cats adjusting to new people or schedule changes. * I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care feels like a natural and rewarding part of my routine rather than an extra obligation. * I create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment for every pet in my care. * I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, medications, playtime, and comfort preferences. * I respect every animal’s personality and boundaries and never force interaction before they feel comfortable. * I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing. * I keep litter boxes, feeding areas, and pet spaces clean and sanitary. * I double-check doors, gates, and safety concerns to help prevent escapes or stress. * I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while away. * In clients’ homes, I treat both the pets and the space with care, cleanliness, and respect.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since 2011 and have been caring for them my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to check in on, feed, play with, and give personalized care to their pets. I’m comfortable with cats of all personalities as well as dogs — from energetic pups to calm seniors. I always make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. As a recent college graduate, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times, including evenings, weekends, and last-minute requests. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, daily check-ins, or overnight sitting for both your cats and dogs at your home. I provide calm, loving, and reliable care in your home. Having grown up with both cats and dogs, I’m experienced at giving each pet the personalized attention they need — playtime and cuddles for cats, walks and enrichment for dogs, plus feeding, litter boxes, and medication if required. Your pets will be safe and well cared for while you’re away.

“Heather is always so wonderful with our two orange floofs! We always feel so much better about leaving them knowing she is visiting and taking care of them each day!”
“Lauryn is fabulous as a pet sitter! Her calm but fun presence was just what our dogs respond to well! She sent so many great pictures capturing what was happening while we were away. Baxter is not initially warm and friendly and he was cuddling in her lap in no time. She knows animals of all kinds! She handled all their needs including the three times a day medication Baxter needs.”
About: My while life has been surrounded with pets. I have always had dogs of very many sizes. I also have a 6 year old spoiled rabbit named kyle, a bird, a snake and 2 dogs.

And now I walk dogs at the Humane Society for my job. I am saving up with this job and my job at the Humane Society for college! I am going to mizzou majoring in animal science to then go onto vet school. Beyond money this is an opportunity for more experience and fun as I am surrounding myself with my favorite thing which is animals! I am free to be scheduled at any time whether it be to walk, watch, or drop in on your pets any day of the week other than mon-fri 2:00-4:30 pm while I'm working. Other than that I am very flexible and happy to help out with your pets! I will happily follow all your requests and respect your space when I am pet sitting or walking your dog. I will be very attentive towards your animals as I care about them just like my own! I will also give them endless amounts of love!
“Claire took great care of our dog, Monte, who can be a lot to handle. We were sent pics of him playing on her visits and he looked very well cared for! She was extremely thorough on her visits making sure he was good to go before leaving.”
“Our boys feel so comfortable with Allison. She checked in on them after a bad tornado came near our place late at night. She handled our long trip like a cakewalk and we could not be more thrilled to have her as our go to cat sitter.”
“My cats were in good hands with Katie checking in on them and spending some time with them as well! She even left some cute treats and toys for them. Katie went above and beyond and also collected my mail while I was out of town. I’ll definitely Italy be reaching back out next time I need a sitter.”
“We were Katie’s first Rover experience and she handled drop in visits for our 3 pups perfectly! She was prompt, communicative and friendly sending great updates and went above and beyond. We’d highly recommend utilizing Katie for all your Rover needs!”
“Great job! Thanks for taking such good care of my girls. You must be a “cat whisperer” to have gotten them both out to visit with you so quickly! You made my time away bearable for them and worry free for me. I would definitely book your services again.”

As always Heather is great with both our cats - the new one who loves to help her with all the activities she's doing (the litter, feeding, etc) and the old one chats to her the entire time about he can't believe we left him (AGAIN) with the new one who is now his cross to bear all by himself.
Sonja is so kind, sweet and genuinely so caring when it comes to my little kitties. She followed (medical) instructions and tended to my babies with care and love. She provided the best, well thought out and thorough updates for each visit! It felt like I never left home. Can’t thank her and recommend her enough!!
Devon was great with our senior cat! She helped feed and medicate her, scooped litter, etc while also spending some quality time to help make her less lonely while we were gone. She sent pictures and updates daily, asked clarifying questions to ensure the best care was given, and even made recommendations for care when she noticed a change in our cat’s digestion. Highly recommended!
Asa was wonderful. I received pictures and updates. She took time with each of my cats as they have to be kept separate. I came home to each of my cats being well taking care of, everything being tidy, and both of the kitties having attention. I am so happy with Asa’s care!
My loving kitty Sherbert passed away today. Katie was so kind and supportive to Sherbert and to me throughout. She notified me of Sherbert’s deteriorating condition right away and stayed with him as much as she could while still honoring her other appointments. She came back for him and took him to the emergency hospital while I was driving home to St Louis to be with Sherbert in his final moments. I couldn’t have asked for better kindness and care from anyone. I will continue to rely on Katie with complete confidence to take care of Callie, my other kitty. She and I both with miss Sherbert with all our heart. 🐈
Lauren was wonderful! She took great care of our cat while we were away and sent updates that really helped us relax knowing everything was going well at home. She was reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals. Our cat was comfortable and well cared for, which means a lot to us. We’re very grateful for her help and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Diane went above and beyond to make certain my Sheltie and Ragdoll cat were well taken care of, loved and happy. I especially enjoyed the pics of Charlie she would send twice a day. I know now who to request when I need someone to care for them again. Thanks Diane!
Lillian did a great job taking care of my cats. Some may think that caring for cats can't be that difficult, but I have had many problems over the years. This time I came home to no problems--everything was clean and cats were healthy and happy. And Lillian is so sweet. I felt very comfortable trusting her as soon as I met her.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Affton on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 1,314 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Affton. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Affton. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
