“Dean was super reliable and took great care of out 2 furry babies like his own. He even reset our circuit breakers that went off after a severe storm came through (thanks so much for saving our food!). Whenever we go out of town again, we will be seeking out his services! 5 stars doesn't seem enough.”

“Nicole was polite, friendly, and professional. She inquired about the services we were looking for since it was our first time using Rover. We told here what we needed and she confirmed that she would be able to those tasks and even ones we had not considered. She had an immediate rapport with our pets and it showed when she provided reports about her visits. We give Nicole our highest recommendation.”
About: My dogs and I have been through AKC certified obedience training I'm experienced in walking multiple dogs at a time Can housesit and care for dogs with special needs Providing positive reinforcement and tasty bribes is my main method of gaining trust with a new dog friend. I'm open to meeting and discussing all forms of service ahead of time I have a flexible part time job that is generally from 9 - 4 Monday through Friday. These times are flexible so if you have a question about a particular day feel free to ask My 2 dogs and I walk almost everyday around our neighborhood just to get some adventure and smell some new fire hydrants. My house has a wood 6' privacy fence around the backyard and I have time to them out 5 or 6 times a day for bathroom breaks or to just run around an play. My dogs started being crate trained as a puppy but as they have grown older and more trusty we use them less and less. I use a lot of positive reinforcement and treat training to bond and build rapport. I feel comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes and would prefer to take care of new dogs in their home environment first. My dogs: I have a 6 year old 60lb female Portuguese water dog -- She's a big napper, cuddler and loves cats. My 3 year old, 30lb, male terrier mix is the feisty play pal that keeps everyone entertained.
About: I have lived with pets my whole life, ever since I was a kid I have had at times even 5/6 pets between cats and dogs of all sizes and ages. I have lots of experience with dogs that come from shelters but also with training puppies that come from breeders. I have a cat in my house right now but he has lived with dogs before so he won’t have any issues making new friends. I am a responsible and reliable person, always updating the owners of their pet’s wellbeing and making sure that they have the best time while staying with me. I am currently not employed and looking for a job from home to be able to continue taking care of other’s pets. I am very active so I will always make sure your pets get the right amount of exercise based on their needs. I have a fenced yard but I am also very active so I go on several walks every day. I will take your pet out daily but also give them the opportunity to play in the yard. I have a small pool for pets when it get too hot as well.
“Beth did great with our kitty Cleo while we were away. We loved the photos and updates. Cleo easily warmed up to her and she fulfilled all of her needs while we were gone. Thanks Beth!”
“Saven- was amazing. She watched our dogs for drop in visits during a long weekend. She was responsive with questions and communication. I appreciated the drop in pictures. Most importantly our 3 dogs were happy and not stressed. Thank you again!”
“Emma did a really great job looking after Florence and Reddington - this turned out to be a longer trip than planned at the last minute (almost 3 weeks) and she extended her visits with no hesitation, spending extra time with them to make sure they were well looked after and had the company needed while we were away so long. Her patience with Florence certainly paid off, I’m glad she finally warmed to her and got her head scrunches 🥰 Thank you Emma!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 952 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Amelia City. 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.

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.
