“Katie took extra care with my shy cats, and made sure to give everyone lots of cuddle and play time. I felt very comfortable while I was away. Will definitely use her services again!”

“Laura was great!! She sent me SO MANY PICTURES and a very detailed synopsis of her drop-in visit with Beauie and Beauie looked super happy and remembered her from our meet and greet (he can be a little bit shy with people but he loves her). 100% will be a repeat client with Laura again.”

“We had an excellent experience with Andrew caring for our two cats. He provided thoughtful updates, followed all instructions perfectly, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our cats were happy, comfortable, and clearly well looked after. We’re so grateful for his care and would highly recommend him to anyone needing a dependable sitter.”
“Harrison was great! He was super flexible and communicative. He also checked in a couple times before the drop ins to ensure he had all the necessary information to care for Guillermo. He sent multiple pictures and provided an update for each visit, which I really appreciate. Thanks Harrison!”
“Hannah did a great job checking in on Arlo while we were out of town. She provided great updates and made sure to give him attention and affection. She was also very communicative and provided helpful updates after each visit. Highly recommend!”
“Thanks Phoenix. Reliable, got the job done well and a caring person to trust with my cat visits. I appreciate you watching my kitty kid and will be in contact again for your great services ASAP.”
“When Sophie , CoCo and I first met Katherine we knew immediately that the girls were in great hands. The moment we met Katherine we knew she loves dogs and that is really important. Wayne and I went on a vacation with no worries at all . We would highly recommend Katherine for your next dog sitter. We were completely satisfied with Katherine’s care of our doggies!”
“My cats love Courtney! Especially my super shy boy comes out of shell when he sees her. I’m super happy with her taking care of my two little ones, she spends quality time with them and doesn’t cut her visits short. I also really appreciate the detailed write up and the cute photos. Thank you, Courtney!”
About: I've had numerous experiences caring for dogs of different temperaments and medical conditions, whether the animal was closely related through family or friends or through my place of work. Additionally, I am a former animal studies major and have spent several years learning and understanding different ways domesticated animals can communicate their needs. My goal is to ensure each animal is given the proper mental and physical enrichment they need to thrive in their loving home. Through my extensive research and knowledge, I foster a safe environment that ensures your dog/cat will receive the best care for their specific breed's needs and requirements. I strive every day to give each fur baby the love and life they deserve:) I have taken a few months away from my job to pursue personal passions of mine before I return to college, so my schedule from Monday to Sunday is very flexible and readily available. Times and schedules may vary depending on personal appointments or familial obligations. If for any reason an emergency visit is needed, I can swing by and check in with your fur baby. I can crate dogs easily and work on building confidence with shy/anxious dogs. Additionally, I update owners about patterns of feeding, bowel movements, or any changes in everyday life to ensure comfort. The safety of your pet is my top priority, and I strive to uphold that through attentive one-on-one play and monitoring of any physical or mental changes.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring pet lover who understands how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I provide drop-in visits and dog walking services for both dogs and cats, and I treat every pet like part of the family. I have years of hands-on caregiving experience and am comfortable with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels — from playful puppies and active dogs to shy cats and senior pets who need a gentler approach. During drop-in visits and walks, I focus on giving pets attention, exercise, and consistency with their normal routine. I always provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured their pets are doing well. Cats deserve just as much attention and care while their owners are away. I’m happy to provide: Feeding and water refresh Litter box cleaning Playtime and enrichment Medication assistance if needed Quiet companionship for shy cats Daily updates and photos

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Anchorage
Leigh Ann was an absolutely fabulous pet sitter! Not only was she available with fairly short notice, she spent extra time with our pets to make sure they were comfortable with her. She walked our dog when she only needed to let him out back, she checked on the cats multiple times each day when she only needed to check on them once a day, and she thoroughly cleaned up their accidents in the house when she didn’t have to. It was great to find someone so responsible with our pets. We will definitely be using Leigh Ann’s services again!
Lynn did a great job caring for my two cats while I was away. She gave me peace of mind knowing that nugget was being well cared for and receiving his medications as scheduled. I would for sure recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
Elizabeth was great with our two cats! We had specific instructions about keeping them separate and mixing medicine into food, & she kindly agreed to a meet & greet to make sure she received the details & met our girls. We felt good about leaving them in her hands, & everything was the way we left it when we returned. Thanks Elizabeth!
I have probably said this before, but I always have such great peace of mind when Kylie looks after Guillermo. I am typically gone for a few days at a time — this time around I was gone for much longer but I felt at ease knowing he’d be in great hands. As always Kylie was communicative, caring and adaptive to the changes in Guillermo’s feeding routine. I can’t thank her enough for being so great with him!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Anchorage on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 6,176 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Anchorage. 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.
