“Robin was absolutely amazing! She was respectful of our home, incredibly responsive, and always checked in and out on time. She showered our cat with love—playing with him, snuggling him, and sending us daily photo updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. When he didn’t come home on time one day, she even returned later to make sure he was safe—truly going above and beyond. We were able to fully enjoy our holiday knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend Robin!”
“Karolina has been a lifesaver for us this summer. She is very responsive, always sends photos, and is willing to go the distance (figurative and literally—we live pretty far off the beaten path). She took the time to get to know our kitty. I was surprised when Klaire, who is shy, was on Karolina’s lap by the third visit. Thank you, Karolina!”
“Lyndsay took wonderful care of our little man! Merlin took to her immediately and seemed to love his time with her. We would absolutely hire her any time to take care of our cat, and would recommend her highly to care for any animal.”
“Samantha is great with our 3 year old cat. She really plays and cuddles with her, and our house is perfect when we return. She has come several times, and we are so lucky to have found someone as caring as Samantha.”
“Ariana dropped by to visit my cat over the weekend, and he was so happy and content when I returned! She was very flexible, responsive, and a great communicator - I received lots of great comments and photos while I was away. Thank you Ariana!”
“Thank you for everything Jasmin. You are so reliable and a great sitter. Thank you for taking great care of my fur babies. I will definitely rebook for my next service. Appreciate you a lot!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teen. Neighbors relied on me to care for their dogs. I enjoy walking dogs, and will make sure you dog gets a nice walk. I can walk dogs and or care for your pets in the early morning and after 4pm on weekdays, and anytime on weekends. I am an excellent option especially for weekends. We have a fenced yard, and a nice big house. We live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood. Your dog will be spoiled at our house.
About: I have a natural passion for all creatures great and small! I have experience with pet care from cats and dogs to fish and reptiles. I also have experience with reactive dogs and also with administering medication to pets who need them. Rover is my only gig currently so I am able to devote as little or as much time as you need for you to feel comfortable and secure about your pets care in your absence! I take great care in not just looking after your pets while you’re away but also looking after your home. I will bring in packages and make sure your home is fully locked and secure before leaving!
“Veronika was a perfect choice to look after my feisty cat! She worked hard to earn her trust and even got her to play after the first visit! I would highly recommend her for attention to detail and genuinely caring for the well-being of furry family members. Thank you Veronika!!”
“Madison was great. She took excellent care of my 19 year old cat who also needed thyroid medication twice daily. She was quick to understand what was needed and left the house looking clean and tidy. Sent the cutest photos too! I will definitely ask for her help with my cat again.”
About: Hi my name is Ella! I'm a college student and aspiring veterinarian with a passion for caring for animals, and hands-on experience working with animals of all kinds. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and no matter what that is, I am happy to provide the care they need. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering basic medications if needed, and taking care of larger animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I'm available to care for your pets any time, any day of the week throughout August and into late September! Whether you need a last-minute sitter or are planning ahead, I'd love to help. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to follow your pet's routine, and I'll carefully follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions. I'll treat your pet like one of my own and make sure you receive regular updates while you're away.
“I highly recommend Kaetlyn for your pet sitting needs. She was respectful and patient with my dog who can have stranger danger. She was prompt with her visits and I felt that she really cared for my dog. I plan on hiring her again in the future! Thanks, Kaetlyn!”
“Jordan took incredible care of our two cats while we were out of town! Jordan went above and beyond for us and sent us sweet pictures every drop-in! We definitely will use Jordan again in the future!”
About: I have experience working with different types of pets for 10 years. I started providing services when I worked at a veterinary clinic. I have provided services to different dog breeds and cats as well. I also provided services for some reptiles and a quail. I send updates every day and photos, unless otherwise advise not to. I make sure that your pet is treated how I want my pet to be treated. Pets are our family and should be treated as such by the people you entrust them to. Also able to pet sit small critters: guinea pigs, hamsters, hedgehogs, chinchillas, and turtles. I have experience with pet sitting and walking. I have walked plenty of different dog breeds, even ones that I require specialized walks. I pet sit in home and my home. I’ve owned pets throughout my life. I lost my own best friend, Chai Tea in 2023 to cancer. He meant the world to me. Now, I pet sit and try my best to make every pet feel loved. I treat my clients pets with the same respect I would treat my pet. I’ve had plenty of clients that appreciated the service I provided and love the photos I would send of their pet. I make sure that your pet is returned the same way you gave them to me. I make sure they’re well fed and bathed. If there are any Issues, I immediately communicate. My stepmom is a veterinarian, so any questions or concerns, I can directly address them to her if I cannot get a hold of the client in time.

Lynne was great! We were out of town for our wedding and of course our litter robot was acting up. She assured us everything was handled and that we didn’t need to worry at all. We would highly recommend her and would be happy to book with her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 599 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Allen. 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 .
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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
