About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life—rescues, purebreds, young, senior, feathered, and scaled. My deep love for animals drives me to provide attentive, compassionate care to every pet as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with pets who have medical needs, including diabetes, and understand the stress that can come with managing those conditions. I aim to offer not just reliable care, but true peace of mind for pet parents. I’m currently in Cedar Park, TX and available for pet sitting and dog walking through August 17th. After that, I’ll be heading to CU Boulder for my freshman year. As a student, I’ll have a busy schedule but plan to continue pet sitting when possible. I have my own car, so I’m flexible with travel and timing while I’m in town! I’m happy to pet sit in your home and will always leave your space just as I found it—clean, respectful, and well cared for. Whether you need overnight stays, drop-in visits, or just walks, I’m flexible and here to help however you need!
“Abigail is the absolute best sitter I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting..And I’ve met a lot. My favorite thing is how descriptive she is in how Michaels(my cat) day went: I was speaking about how wonderful she is to my travel partner and immediately they asked for Abigail’s contact info. I will absolutely be recommending to everyone I know! Thank you Abigail, you put me at ease with my very finicky male cat ! Think I found my forever sitter 😝👼❤️”
“Tonnie was great with our furry baby!! She was very communicative and punctual. She also took him out in our garden daily per our instructions and he really felt happy and full of spirit when we returned.”
“Holly is amazing! She takes such good care of my puppy, Kevin! She is punctual, efficient, communicative and super caring and fun with Kevin😊 Simply put, a working dog dad’s dream! Thanks so much Holly!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood. I’ve had cats, dogs, birds and rodents as pets growing up. My current household consists of 3 cats and two large dogs (a Newfoundland and a Great Pyrenees). I have experience in giving medication to both cats and dogs due to my current animals needing daily medications. From my experience using Rover I know how important it is to find the right person to care for your pets, I’d love to help take care of yours. I’m currently working full-time which unfortunately limits my availability to only the weekend and a select few week days. The days I do have available I’m free to check in anytime.— I’m cautious when entering a home due to my experience with my own door dashers. I appreciate any and all instructions given to make sure all animals in the home are happy and safe.
“Sofia did a great job of taking care of my two cats. She followed all of my instructions and even went beyond what I asked. She kept me updated and my cats looked perfectly happy in all the pictures she sent. Highly recommend.”
“We are so grateful to Lisa for helping take care of our kitties while we were away for the weekend! She was very communicative and provided plenty of pictures. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Rikku was great! He got to know our cat Boots quickly and boots warmed right up to him. When we got home boots seemed happy and comfortable. Would recommend Rikku!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 4,165 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Altona. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Altona. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
