“Sarah did a great job dropping in on my cats, especially my newer young cat that I just rescued. She checked in every day and made sure they had what they needed. She also helped deal with an unexpected water leak from an upstairs neighbor that occurred while I was away!”
About: I have had pets all my life. Mainly dogs. I have trained some of my personal pets in the past. I also love seeing animals personalities, and learning to work with them from there. I work 8a-4p Tuesday - Friday, and some Mondays (same hours). I never work weekends or evenings. I have an hour for lunch on the days I work, so I am able to run by for a potty break if needed. I have a big fenced in backyard just waiting for your dog to come roam! I do not currently have any pets, so I do not have a cage, water bowl, leash, etc. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.
About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.
About: From an early age, we have cared for, rescued, and loved animals of all types. Into adulthood, we have been blessed to be trusted to provide care for several fur babies, small to large. Developing and maintaining ongoing friendships with both the pets, and the owners is important to us. Earning trust and getting invited back is what drives us. We will be honored to meet you, and your four-legged family. Thank you for your consideration! Brita is currently working part time and has plenty of time to care for your pets! We are passionate about the well being of animals and will be available rain or shine. We believe the safety of your four-legged family member is very important. At our home, our cats are never without. Simply walking, feeding, and providing clean water is not what pet-sitting is all about. Our furry friends also need love and companionship. That, I believe, sets us apart.
“Addison is a fantastic cat sitter! She was incredibly responsive from the start and arrived at our home exactly as planned. She followed all of my feeding instructions perfectly and took the extra time to play with my cat, which gave me such peace of mind. I will absolutely be hiring her again. Highly recommended!”
About: I love hanging out with animals, playing with them and loving on them! I dog sit and cat sit regularly throughout the week for friends, family and neighbors. I have multiple references if ever needed. I’ve done multiple overnight and week stays in clients houses. I’ve also done multiple drop ins for first time meet with the pet. I can give out medications and do shots if needed. I have Lupus, so hanging out with animals is very therapeutic to me. I have open availability, I can do overnights or weekends. Whatever you need me to do I’m available anytime to help out with your fur babies! I will first come in and get the animal warmed up to me, then take them outside. We will then go play or eat. I make sure your animals will be treated with love and respect. I also will make sure to clean up any mess that has been made.
About: I have had cats, reptiles, dogs and fish my entire life! I have had big dogs, small dogs, kittens and geriatric animals. I currently have three dogs at home and two of them are seniors one is a little dog and one is a Rottweiler they they are on medication so I am extremely familiar with senior dog care. I currently care for one cat at home who is 2 and have three more back in Chicago two are kittens and one is 16 so also lots of experience with cats old and young. I was my neighborhoods pet sitter and have had experience with all animals! I have a cat that I care for everyday and I am very timely and consistent with care and feeding. He is extremely independent so that allows me a lot of time to take care of other animals which I am very familiar with when I go back to Chicago and seeing all my dogs and cats! I am super flexible and adaptable like I said I have dealt with all types of ages and breeds so I can handle a lot. I understand and respect boundaries with animals and will follow the owners instructions. I love playing with animals and going outside or to the park/beach so I am more than willing to do whatever is needed to provide the best and safest care.
“Cassandra was an excellent sitter for my senior short-haired tabby cat for the long Memorial Day weekend. She followed the pre-arranged schedule perfectly and performed all the requested duties completely. She communicated with me for every visit, giving details of my cat’s behavior and wellbeing, and providing photos of my cat with each visit. I am very happy with Cassandra’s service and would definitely use her again!”
“Wonderful pet (cat) sitter! Olive was very comfortable with Olivia. Maybe too comfortable bossing her around begging for treats and scratches. 😹 Great communication and pics/videos sent to us too! Will book again. 👍🏻”
About: I’ve always been a fan of animals since a very young age and they tend to like me a lot so I’m hoping that you would give me a chance. I can make time for the animals before or after work, and I will be sure to spend time with them and enrich their lives. I will make sure that your pet feels like a part of the family, and if I am in your home, I will make sure that I treat it with respect.
“Jenni was very understanding and attentive with my sweet kitty. She even offered to give regular / daily updates, which was much appreciated. I was glad she was able to stay with her while we were gone, and she was very empathetic to my concern and my instructions. We really appreciate Jenni's attentiveness and communication, it was much appreciated!”
“She took such good care of our four cats. Our youngest cat is skittish around strangers. I figured that he would hide from her the whole time. But he eventually felt comfortable to play laser with her. Yay!”
About: I’ve worked in dog daycare and boarding for six years as well as taking care of my pets. I also have some experience taking care of horses and sheep. I’m generally available weekdays from 11 AM–2 PM, with evening flexibility from 4–6 PM as needed. I’m also available on weekends. I have extensive experience caring for animals of all kinds, beginning in childhood, and I’m committed to providing your pet with attentive, dependable, and compassionate care.
About: I’m a caring and dependable pet lover who understands how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I work during the week 8-4:30p and am pretty open on the weekends! I am able to accept clients during the week if early morning and late evening work! I prefer pet sitting at the clients home due to I have 2 cats and live in an apartment. The space would be too small.
About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 12 years old, and I’ve had pets my entire life. Through caring for my own animals, I’ve been actively involved in both the training and day-to-day caretaking process. I truly love animals and enjoy being a part of their well-being by providing them with a safe, healthy, and loving environment. I’m currently working part-time, but I will make sure my work schedule aligns with the care of your pets. My schedule is very flexible, so I’ll always be able to prioritize your pets and ensure they receive the attention, care, and love they deserve! I will make sure your pet is very well taken care of and feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I can walk them, play with them, spend quality time with them, and keep them on their normal routine as much as possible. I’m also available for overnight stays if needed to ensure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away!
About: I grew up caring for a variety of pets, fur babies are my favorite! I worked at a doggy day care for 3 years. Since then I have taken care of my own cat and learned a few tips from a Veterinarian I’m close to! I moved to Knoxville to go back to school to get my bachelor’s degree. Let me know what you prefer and we can work it out! My 3-year-old son and I are excited to provide your pup /or kitty with endless amounts of love and exceptional care! I am no stranger to fur and/or slobber covering me and I don’t mind getting a little dirty having a blast playing with your fur baby. I’m good at “reading the room” I’m happy to give cats the space they need as well as all the pets and snuggles they desire! You tell me what you’d like done and I do it!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Alcoa
This was our second time using her, and once again she did an excellent job! She made three visits with Kat and Wally while we were away in Atlanta for the weekend. I was especially happy that Wally remembered her! He’s a Shih Tzu who is not very friendly or trusting with people outside of us, so the fact that he remembered her and was comfortable with her says a lot. Both Kat and Wally were well cared for, and it gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely continue booking with her! ❤️🐾
Sarah did a great job dropping in on my cats, especially my newer young cat that I just rescued. She checked in every day and made sure they had what they needed. She also helped deal with an unexpected water leak from an upstairs neighbor that occurred while I was away!
This is the first time I've used Rover and I was a bit nervous about having a pet sitter I didn't know. But, Cassandra did a great job taking care of the kitties. She sent me pictures and updates every day so that I would know everything was ok. I would highly recommend her.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Alcoa is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 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.

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.

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.
