“I’m a teacher, and Jesse did drop-in visits with my senior dog throughout the school year. She’s very personable, reliable, and flexible, and it was such a relief to know that she was checking in on my old boy during the school day. I hope she’ll agree to work with us again this fall, and I would recommend her to anyone for superb pet care!”
“Aubry was great with my senior cat Lincoln!! She is very fast to respond and also sent me a few pictures each day. When my flight back got cancelled and I was stuck for one extra day, she was more than happy to do a VERY last minute booking to check in on my cat the same day. I really appreciated it :)”
About: I have been in love with cats and dogs for as long as I can remember! I grew up with 2 cats and 1 dog in my household as well as chickens, a bearded dragon, a turtle, fish, guinea pig, and a rabbit! Currently I have no animals but I still have the same amount of love for them! I have taken care of my friends and families animals and I’m always happy to meet some new animal friends!! 😍 I am currently a musician part time which means my schedule is flexible and I’m happy to visit your animals whenever is best for their schedule! I will happily send you picture and video updates for your animals! I love to play with them using their favorite toys and don’t mind spending some extra time for some snuggle sessions while I’m there :) I am a musician which means work comes and goes and I make my own schedule so I am extremely flexible and happy to visit whenever! We always had an "electric" fence for our dog which would gently vibrate her collar if she got out of the boundary. She was well trained and very attentive. Our cats were indoor cats and we made sure they knew they shouldn't try and get outside or on counters. The chickens and rabbit were fenced in outside in a giant chicken coop and since I was handling animals at a young age I am very familiar with how to gently care for them.
“We set up a drop in before having Clowee stay with our two Great Danes for the weekend. She was wonderful — she was warm, great with our two dogs, and she has experience with animals who need medication. Our dogs got on well with her right away—she asked great questions and was very open to caring for two high maintenance pups. We can’t wait for her to stay with them.”
About: I have been in the animal care taking field for about 5 years now. I went to school to get my vet tech degree as well as working with rescues for the last 3 years. I am currently going back to school to earn my BA in wildlife conservation. I currently work part-time as a daycare teacher and the rest of my time is dedicated to the animals in my care! I'm currently a foster / volunteer for Pet Pack Rescue Initiative. We have our own building which is dedicated to all of our boarding / daycare clients! We have a large playroom and two separate kennel rooms, which ensure the safety of keeping dogs separate if needed! We have staff here 7 days a week / 24 hours a day, so your pup will never be left unattended. We have our own office space that is dedicated to our fosters and pet sitting clients, we have a fenced in dog run on the side of our building (that is shaded) and gives the perfect space for your fur babies to run, play and enjoy the outdoors. We also have three separate rooms inside set up with kennels and toys! Our separate kennel rooms ensure the safety of everyone's fur babies! We also have staff on the premises 7 days a week, 24 hours a day so your fur babies will never be left unattended.
About: I have always had dogs in my family. Or some kind of pet. I have grown with the connection of any type of pet. Especially dogs. I have pet sat for both cats and dogs for a long time. For example other family members, neighbors, friends of friends, and connections! I am available weekdays anytime after 3! And weekends any time of day! I am currently jobless and I have lots of extra free time! I have a fenced in yard, I make sure my dogs go on lots of walks to stay active and give lots of attention! In a clients home, I would follow instructions carefully, to make sure myself, and the pet are both comfortable! Giving everyone around a positive experience!
About: With experience from a pet store where I learned about nutrition, training service dogs, and handling a variety of animals at the zoo, I offer well-rounded pet care. As a dedicated pet parent to four dogs, I understand the unique needs of different breeds and provide personalized, knowledgeable care. As a masters student, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine. I balance my studies with caring for my own pets by ensuring their needs are met before I do anything I have to do When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their comfort and well-being. I follow their routines, offer plenty of attention, and ensure they feel safe and loved while maintaining a clean, stress-free environment tailored to their needs.
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I have a special place in my heart for all of them. I currently share my home with one Great Dane and four kitties (all rescues!) I am here to help on weekday evenings, holidays, and weekends. My home has a dedicated room for cat boarding and my goal is to be safely equipped for dogs soon! I have house sat for many families and their pets throughout my life, have volunteered at and donated to local shelters, and have been a contributing member of the ASPCA and WWF for 10+ years. A “fun fact” about me is that I was featured in the National Geographic World magazine in 1999 for raising money and awareness about both local and national animal welfare needs 🩷 I work approximately 15 minutes from my home and utilize lunchtime (NLT 12:00 PM) to check on the pets. My schedule is typically Monday-Friday one week then Monday-Thursday the next week (alternating) and am home by 4:15 PM each day. I work two weekends out of every three month period and have all federal holidays off. My home has a small bedroom that is set up for cats 🐈 to enjoy, with more to come. Their room includes a scratching post seated under a window, tons of toys, and an automatic litter box connected to my phone so that I can always monitor it (two large stainless steel litter boxes or a Breeze pellet system are also available, if preferred). There is also a camera in your room for an extra set of eyes! You will have stainless steel food, drinking fountain (stainless steal bowls available, if preferred), a large pet bed, soft blankets , treats - only if allowed - and plenty of other options depending on your kitty’s needs and preferences. My cats have their own spacious, separate area set up downstairs. They are all friendly, altered, and vaccinated (records available upon request). My dog 🐶 is house trained and vaccinated as well. Though he loves everyone, especially kitties, your fur baby will stay in their own room for everyone’s safety and comfort. Floors, litter boxes, and food/water bowls are sanitized daily. The closest vet is approximately 15 minutes away and the Peoria County emergency vet is around 25 minutes from my home. I am happy to provide additional information, photos, and references upon request.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 82 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Allentown. 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.

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.
