“Jill did a fantastic job taking care of my 3 kitties. Feeding, scooping litter and play time was clearly documented for each visit. I know she spent quality time with my cats and I greatly appreciate her care and attention to details. Great job and thank you, Jill!”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life and have a deep love and compassion for them, and other animals of all shapes and sizes. I prioritize custom care to fit your pet’s unique personality and boundaries to ensure that not only they are happy & safe, but you are at ease and comfortable with me caring for your precious baby! Small to medium dogs only please ❤️🐾 I am highly available throughout the week, Wednesday through Sunday. I can come by as early as 7am and as late as 10pm to make sure your furry friend has their food, water, and necessary medication at the time they need it, so you don’t have to stress! I have one indoor-only cat who is the love of my life! I work part time as a receptionist at an animal hospital so my cat is up to date on all of his vaccines and exams. He has a sensitive tummy and feline asthma as well as a heart condition, so I am highly familiar and flexible with cats with any kind of conditions requiring medication administration, special diets or processes.

About: Hi! I’m Sara, and I’ve always had such a big love for animals, especially horses and dogs! Growing up, animals have always had a special place in my heart, and I truly believe they deserve all the love, patience, and care in the world. I love spending time with dogs, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them some extra cuddles and attention. Every dog has their own little personality, and getting to know them is honestly one of my favorite things! I know how much our pets mean to us, so I’ll always treat yours like my own. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind while you’re away! My typical day is pretty relaxed and flexible, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! I love starting the day with a nice walk, some fresh air, and of course, lots of playtime and attention. Throughout the day, I make sure there’s a good balance of exercise, potty breaks, meals, cuddles, and downtime. I also love getting to know each dog’s personality and sticking to their usual routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I do work night shifts on select days, but I’m always upfront about my availability and make sure your pet’s needs and schedule are a priority. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and little updates throughout the day because I know how reassuring it is to see your babies happy and well cared for! 🐾 I live in a safe, pet-friendly gated community with its own secure dog playground, plus the Quincy Dog Park just around the corner—perfect for plenty of playtime and socializing! 🐕✨

About: I have been around dogs and other pets my whole life! I grew up with Rottweilers and my family currently has Bernese mountain dogs and boxers so I understand the energy that fuels these big babies. I have experience with cats along with other animals ranging from farm to reptile. I have changed dog diapers, administered medications, and have provided care from puppy to senior. My current life does not allow for a dog and I just have a lot of love to give! I’m a teacher on summer break who also does not have much of a social life. I am very flexible currently and can fit with your schedule! I’m comfortable with what you are comfortable with! I have administered meds, changed dog diapers, and understand the importance of a watchful eye (my family dog will eat poop if she could).

About: I’ve spent my whole life around animals ranging from cows and horses to cats and dogs. I’ve raised many puppies and kittens and taken care of many livestock animals. Taking care of animals has always been a passion of mine and it gives me something to do. I’ve owned a variety of different dog breeds so I know how they all differ just a little bit. I’d love to have the opportunity to take care of animals because it gives me the option to meet so many beautiful animals. I think it’s very important to match and animal with the right personality that way they can be happy healthy and safe! Please let me know if you have any other questions that you need answered. I am basically available anytime of the week and love to go on hikes and walks so I would love to do that with your animals! I do not have a yard but my apartment has a dog park and plenty of space for walks around the harbor! I’m a pretty active person and would love to get your pets energy out

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and truly love caring for all kinds of pets. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters of my own, and I’ve also boarded dogs and cats for friends and family. I have experience fostering kittens and understand how much patience, attention, and care animals need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a long walk, some extra playtime, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with pets of all personalities and love getting to know each animal’s unique needs! My schedule is very flexible because I work remotely, so I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with each pet parent’s schedule and can often be flexible with timing. I’m also available for boarding and overnight care depending on the dates and needs of your pet. I take pet safety and comfort very seriously and always make sure pets are supervised, secure, and cared for according to their owner’s instructions. I’m comfortable caring for pets in my home or a client’s home and will maintain their normal routines as closely as possible. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care.

About: I am experience with caring for several types of dogs and cats in size and breed. I have cared for multiple dogs at the same time and meeting their needs at any age. My greatest strength is my patience and my willingness to communicate with your pets to ensure a working relationship that is based on love and care. I work remotely at home, and I am happy to take breaks to care for pets in between my work. I am flexible with early morning walks to late evening strolls. I love walking through parks and working at pet friendly cafes. I am transparent with my work. Working at clients home is something I understand that must be rooted in trust and care. I respect people's property and schedule to the best of my ability. I am actively aware of the need for communication, and I place that trait above all.

About: Hello- I have cared for dogs of every kind since I was around 10, walking dogs in the neighborhood. Finally, after putting it at the top of my Santa list every year growing up, my first family dog came in HS. He was an Italian West Highland Terrier , so we landed on the unique name Buddy, naturally. I love dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. I believe in nurture over nature. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Dog parks , forest walks and the beach are always options ♥️ Currently serving South End, Savin Hill, Squantum and South Boston neighborhoods I am currently very available, especially during the week. I am able to take your dog out as frequently as they may need. Available at short notice as well. I can wake up early and can wake up at night for puppies as well. I have a fenced patio and a nice surrounding neighborhood for walks. I have no pets. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can also bathe your dog if they’re willing 😍

About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m caring, patient, responsible, and will treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and get plenty of attention while in my care. I am currently enrolled in an automotive program! I am looking for a job where I can temporarily make my own schedule. I am available most days after 3:30pm, depending on location. I have availability everyday except sundays. My home is very safe for animals. I live in a douplex with other family members. I have my own floor separated from all of the animals. I live in a neighborhood where I can walk them, and I am very close to a nice walking trail as well! I do live on the third floor so animals with bad hips may not be a good fit!

About: I'm new to Rover, but not new to pet sitting! I have multiple 5-star reviews from TrustedHousesitters and years of experience caring for dogs and cats! I’ve had my big baby boy “Rocky”; German shepherd dog for 15 years, so I have a lot of experience and comfortable taking care of and handling big and reactive dogs. I also grew up with Stella (a small Chihuahua mix) and Sesame and Leo (2 cats ) so I also have experience with cats and smaller dogs . I love all animals tho; if an opportunity came to take care of an animal other than a cat or a dog I’d be happy to learn and sit with them! :) I am a freelance art director. I only do when I'm free between projects and able to be 100% present for your pet, since spending time with animals genuinely makes me happy until it’s the right time for me to have my own again. I make sure to gain their trust on their own terms, letting them approach me when they feel ready and comfortable. Then I give them lots of affection and attention while following my client’s directions. I’m always attentive to how your pet feels and behaves and will keep you updated as you’d like.

“Raul has stayed with our cat, Flopsi, twice now. I can happily say my cat and I were comforted by the care and attention Raul showed him over both visits. Raul has a gentle, calm nature that helps put even a nervous boy like my Flops at ease. Raul also took great care of our home, keeping it clean and tidy. We’re so happy we found such a reliable, responsible sitter for Flops. We already plan to have Raul back for a longer stay during an upcoming trip.”

We had a great experience with Jill! She braved a nor'easter numerous times over the course of a few days to ensure that our cat Dusey got her insulin shots every 12 hours. And when our flight was inevitably delayed coming home she willingly came back for an extra visit to keep Dusey on schedule. We appreciated her detailed updates and cute photos as well!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Allerton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Allerton is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $33 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,479 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Allerton. 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Allerton. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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 , 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.
