“Dani is so great with Jade! She took the time to ask me about Jade's needs and is so professional and caring. She has a lot of experience with dogs so I had no concerns having her walk my dog, who can pull sometimes. Great communication too!”

“Kristen is very patient with my dog, who can be a bit wiggy on walks when he sees other dogs. She is very experienced,and therefore, knows how to handle him. I'm very appreciative of her style and experience.”

About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!
“Falecia is a fantastic pet sitter and I highly recommend her services. She took care of our older male cat for four days recently. Initially, Falecia was responsive when I contacted her and immediately set up a meet and greet. She was timely for the meeting, very professional, listened carefully, had a number of good questions for me and was willing to help with watering and mail while we were away. She sent updates with photos and videos daily. She interacted with my kitty by bringing in a laser pointer for him to chase around. I felt very confident that he was well cared for”

“Jennifer is a true professional! From her initial communication, to the meet and greet, to detailed notes and follow ups on our dogs everything she did was top notch. Could not recommend her more and will definitely be using her again.”

“Lynn has watched our cats several times and has been very reliable. She takes the time to give them the attention and care they need. It’s so nice knowing they are being taken care of so well by her and we can come home to a clean and happy home. Thanks, Lynn, for being there for us and our cats!”

“Bridgett took excellent care of our furr babies while we were away for a week. This was the longest we have been separated from them and it a great reassurance to have Bridgett care for them. Bridgett was very communicative and observant and spent lots of quality time with our cat and dog. I highly recommend Bridgett for your loved ones.”

“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!”

“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.”


“Otelia was such a great Rover! I had such an easy experience. She is very communicative which helped alleviate any anxiety I felt about leaving my kitty. She even left me a handwritten note at the end!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have had five dogs growing up. I currently have two Great Pyrenees mixes, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities! Along with caring for my own pets, I’ve also pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors, including overnight stays, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to care for cats! I’ve cat sat before and am comfortable with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving them attention while respecting each cat’s unique personality. I’m home from law school for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the care they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, chasing toys, or just relaxing with a familiar routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Schedule I’m home from law school for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule. I work three days a week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a one-hour lunch break, which allows me to check in on pets during the day if needed. Outside of those hours, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care, and I do my best to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. Safety, Trust & Environment I provide care in my clients’ homes so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any other care requests. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Regular photo updates are always included so you can have peace of mind!
About: Hello! My name is Mikayla, and I am a freelance dancer and pointe shoe fitting specialist. In my free time, I would love to come to your pets to provide them adequate care and love throughout the day. Over the last decade, I have provided responsible care for my family's cat and two dogs as well as friends, relatives, roommates, and clients. This includes overnight care, playtime, walks, visiting the dog park, mealtime, oral medication, and more! One of my dogs, Toby, I helped to train as a puppy. I have lots of experience working with anxious pups, finding soothing solutions and providing love and compassion, while meeting their needs. My time spent with your pet would be on top of my current work. I am willing to work with you to accommodate your pet’s needs! I will always come to you to take care of your pet. On top of the information we discuss regarding your pets environment and habits, I am very attentive to the environment that I am in and double check that what I am doing for the animal and for myself is a safe choice. I am open and flexible, and I try to get to know each pets’ unique personality to understand how they will behave in certain situations.
“Victoria is responsive and dependable whenever we need her, even in last minute situations. She is great with our dog who requires a bit more care then most and we will absolutely continue to use her!”

“Chelsea was able to help us out last minute when we needed to travel for my Grandmothers funeral. I came home to happy and calm cats and all the photos she took during the visit looked like the cats were enjoying their time during Chelsea’s check ins!”

“Mary was so helpful with dropping in 2x a day to take care of our two cats. It was great to see the check in photos. We appreciated the quick communication when one of our cats potentially had an issue. We would be happy to ask Mary to pet sit again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 4,138 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.
