“Katie was very attentive, helpful, and took the absolute best care of our cats. She was very accommodating and asked any questions or concerns she may have which we really appreciated. We felt confident that our babies were well taken care of while we were gone. Would definitely recommend booking her.”

“Madison is superb. She’s incredibly responsive and responsible. We were nervous about leaving our pups behind and concerned we might have trouble finding someone brave AND loving enough to care for the bully breed. Madison didn’t flinch and our dogs took to her immediately. She is professional, kind, punctual, caring, and will even send photos, which is incredibly thoughtful and reassuring. We won’t hesitate to rely on Madison in the future and highly recommend her services to others.”

About: I love animals, all of them. No matter how big or how small, they all deserve love. I love taking dogs on walks, seeing how excited they get for all the lovin from people. I’ve taken care of dogs for many years, my friends and family always ask if I can watch their dogs and make sure they go out and use the bathroom, are feed and have water. And most importantly that they play their little heart out. I’m currently part-time, so I’ll have all the time in the world to make sure your animals are well take care of and that means more play time! I’m available all week after noon. I have a fenced backyard, and I’m easily able to put my cats up, giving your pup all the love and attention they need and deserve!

About: I love animals of all kinds, I currently own two dogs, both pitbull mixes, a cat and 16 chickens.

I am available every day from Monday through Friday starting at 8 AM after I drop off my son at school until 3 PM when I have to pick him up from school again. I handle each dog and cat differently based on their needs and past experience. Nothing will be done without the owners previous permission and prior discussion.

About: I will take care of any animal and have years of experience doing so. I love all breeds and I own two large breed dogs myself, along with my pig who thinks he is a dog. I graduated from WVU in August with my masters degree in forensic and fraud examination, and am currently teaching full time. I am available most weekends for full day in-home sitting, and am available from 3-10pm Monday through Friday. If needed, and you are located close enough, I am available for early morning walks and drop in visits between 4:30am and 6:30am. My schedule consists of waking up every morning, taking care of my many many farm animals, going to work and reading in my free time. I also love going to the gym. I like to try and gain trust through treats with all animals, treats and patience go a long way when it comes to gaining respect.

About: I have taken care of our family cat, Pepper, as well as friend's cats since I was 17. After our beloved Pepper passed last October, I wanted to continue caring for other's kitties to keep honor his memory. I can change and clean litter, brush their fur and teeth, clip their nails (depending on comfortability), play with a variety of toys, and provide cuddles as needed. I'm currently studying part-time, so I have a lot of availability to watch over or come visit your kitties! My best days are Monday - Wednesday after 4pm, as well as weekend mornings from 12pm-3pm. This is flexible and other times can be arranged! I'm a patient person who can wait as long as needed if cats need time to warm up, and I respect their boundaries (no picking up or petting if they don't want it, avoiding no-touch areas, etc). If some kitties adhere to a special routine or have special accommodations, I'm more than happy to follow that.

About: I have over 4 years of pet-sitting experience, including caring for pets for the same family consistently throughout those years, as well as pet sitting for several other families! I also have two dogs of my own, an Australian Shepherd and a Dachshund, both of whom I’ve raised since they were puppies! I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs! Whether your dog is tiny or bigger than me, I’m comfortable and confident providing them with the love and attention they deserve. I also have experience with puppy training and helping younger dogs learn good habits! What sets me apart is how much I care about making both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I do my best to keep things as normal as possible while you’re away. Whether that means daily walks, sticking to feeding schedules, playtime, or morning cuddles, I’m happy to do it all! I have a very flexible schedule and am dedicated to providing dependable, loving care. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are happy, safe, and being treated just like my own! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to making sure your furry friends receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life! I’m used to daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and of course, lots of cuddles! Whether you need someone for a quick drop-in visit, daily walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. My goal is to make pet care as stress-free and convenient as possible for both you and your pets! When caring for pets, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine, so I always do my best to follow their owner’s instructions as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to maintain their normal schedule, including feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other special routines they may have. I know being away from their family can sometimes be stressful for pets, so I love giving them extra attention, reassurance, and cuddles whenever they want them! I also understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and provide regular updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your furry family members are doing well! Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, relaxing on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’m happy to give them the personalized care they deserve. My goal is for your pets to feel just as happy and loved with me as they do when you’re home!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Alanthus

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 210 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Alanthus. 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 Alanthus. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
