“Jonathan was awesome with my dog Thor. Absolutely loved every picture he sent on all drop in visits with him while I was away for a weekend, Thor was always super excited to see him and it was like he had been taking care of him for years based on his reaction. Highly recommend”

“Our cat, Chumley, took to Madison right away. She has a wonderful kind and loving energy. We felt very comfortable having Madison come into our home while we were away. Madison sent us the cutest picture of Chumley while visiting with him. We are very pleased with her service and highly recommend her! Thank you Madison!!!”


About: I have been sitting for animals on the side for about 3 years. I am currently attending school for pre veterinary science! I adore animals, my background lies within cats mainly but adore dogs and have testimonies from friends and family who report reliable care, thorough communication and attention to detail! I would love to sit for your cat or dog while you enjoy time away!! I manly handle weekend getaways or short trips! We can work out a flexible price that works for the both of us! I’ll meet you where you’re at. I will be free most of the time during the summer from May-September! I love when my pets sleep with me, cuddle and love to play! I cannot get enough belly rubs or tug of war time with my pups and quiet lap time and zoomies with my kitties! I will make sure your pup or kitty is enriched at all times while maintaining a healthy balance of rest and hydration.
“Rachel was very kind and attentive to my dog & I felt very comfortable having her check-in on him from the first day they met. She was always been very prompt and reliable.”

“Kara was wonderful! It was my first time using Rover for cat drop-ins and she made the whole process stress-free. She was very gentle and understanding when it came to dealing with my shy boy. She was very professional and quick to respond, as well. I'll definitely reach out to Kara again if I need another sitting. Thanks so much!”

About: Hi! My (preferred) name is Daisy & I've been taking care of dogs ever since we adopted my very first canine best friend in 2011! Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their fur babies and I've been handling & working with dogs almost every day for almost two years as a doggy daycare attendant, kennel staff, special pup advisor, and group coordinator. I love taking them on walks and practicing sits, stays, downs, give paws, etc... I absolutely love all animals and promise to take care of your babies as if they were my own! I currently work part-time so I'll have plenty of time to check in on & spend with your pets! I'm available Saturdays before 12pm, Sundays all day, & most holidays before 3pm. Weekday hours vary and I will always be super transparent about my availability! Your pets' safety is important to me so please feel free to leave detailed instructions and I will follow them to a T. I will also keep consistent contact with you, providing (p)updates with photos! I can crate your dog(s) if needed as well. I'm also Red Cross animal first aid certified. I've handled several scuffles and am able to remain calm in any situation that may arise. Your pet will always be safe with me!
“My babies are typically not too comfortable with people they do not know. Tatyjana Communicated with me that the dogs went under the bed but did not give up. She said she was trying to get them to warm up to her and they did. We will definitely have her back again.”

“Elisabeth took incredible care of my cat while I was away! I got plenty of photos and she was even kind enough to give in to his daily demands to be brushed. It was such a relief to know he was well taken care of while I was gone for two weeks. Elisabeth was able to step in and extend her visits when my return trip was delayed for a day. Highly recommended!”

“Kevin kept an eye on my cats while I went away for Christmas. He was awesome! He was attentive to the cats when he came over, cleaned the litter boxes and gave them cat food. He even took the time to warm up and play with them for a while when he came over. I’ll definitely be using Kevin again anytime I need a drop in visit!”

“Christina is a very sweet girl. My 2 kitties went right up to her, Nala is a little shy but she loved her. Christina did an awesome job! I had to book at the last minute and she was able to accommodate us. I will be using her in the future. Many thanks to Rover and Christina for being there ❤️”

About: I've been around animals ever since I was born (dogs, guinea pigs, cats, hamsters), and I've taken care of pets for 20 years. As a kid, I pet sat consistently for many neighbors down my block. I love animals and care deeply about every pet's well-being. Animals make me genuinely so happy and any chance I get to be around them, I'll take it! I currently work full-time with 3 days in the office and 2 at home. I am available evenings (5:30pm and on), mornings (6:00am to 8:00am) and I am flexible on the weekends. I will work hard to accommodate your schedule--so just send me a message and we can chat! Thank you for considering my services. I am most available on the weekends but can accommodate days during the week as needed as I do work from home 2 days a week. I am currently only doing drop-in visits for 30-60 minutes or weekly walking. I am not doing overnight or full house sitting at the moment. I will ensure the best care for your pet in their home by spending time with them, giving them the proper attention they need and, making sure they feel comfortable with me there! You will never have to worry while they are in my care. I will pay special attention to older dogs and dogs that need medication.
About: Hello. Thank you for considering me to take care of your pet. I am Kimmy. I love animals but do not have the money for one myself. I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs, cats, birds, and fish ( even did a stay for over 2 months with two pugs). I understand how difficult life can be so let me help you while I get some relaxing time with your pet. It's a win win! Again thank you so much for the consideration and if you choose me you won't be disappointed. I am currently available everyday for house sitting visits and walks. I work Monday Wednesday Thursday and Friday from 4am-12:30pm, so if your pet is ok be left alone during that time then we are a great match. I will update my calendar if anything changes. I am very communicative. I have reliable transportation. I will take pictures and send updates as often as you would like. I do not have the ability to board.
About: Hi my name is Samantha, I have a home I share with my toddler son and we have 1 pup. We have our 10yr old small spaniel mix, Daisy, that I’ve adopted from Texas. She gets along well with other dogs & loves to play. It was apparent that she never experienced her puppy days before our family took her in. I've had her for 8yrs now and she has become so comfortable and happy in her forever home with us and is very active. She loves to go out on walks and is an even better snuggler. I have had animals my entire life so I love to play, walk and go for runs with them. They have free-roam of the house and the fenced in back yard, and I'm ok with them on my furniture. My dog loves to walk when we can get out, but if not, she loves playing outside before I leave for work and as soon as I get home she runs the back yard. I work during the day M-F, however I work from home 2 days/week. I typically spend my nights home. I am in the military reserves so 1 weekend a month I am away from my home and try not to accept sitting during those long days. I would like more company for my dog as we recently lost her older fur-sister, this has been a transition for us all losing our sweet girl. I have plenty of toys and treats, and I ensure dogs always have free roam of our space. I would just ask that I'm made aware of any restrictions, allergies, behavior issues, etc. ahead of time. I will make sure your dog has the best service and attention in my home and will keep you up to date with their activities by texting pictures and video's through out their stay if you ever wanted! I work M-F, mix-matched teleworking days (flexible). I get up in the morning to let my dog play in the back yard, then she eats before I leave for work. We like to play in the back yard every 1-3hrs and we take breaks frequently so there would be some indoor and outdoor exposure for daily play (weather pending). My yard is fully enclosed so I like to bring my dog out with me to play, sniff, lounge and anything else. I have an outside pool that is for dogs so they can get water, play in it or lay down to cool off whenever they’d like. I have a fenced yard and a friendly fur baby to play with. I also have 2 crates available as needed if it’s a preference of yours. In your home, I can follow any instructions left to make sure your fur-baby feels as comfortable as possible at home in their space without you there.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Alden on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 473 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Alden. 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.

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.
