Declan is an extremely friendly and reliable sitter! He's great with our new kittens and has been very gracious working with us on short notice with our relatively erratic schedule. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!

We had an outstanding experience with our Rover sitter: Sarah and couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She was punctual, professional, attentive, and genuinely caring with our dog from start to finish. Her communication was excellent, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing our pet was in such capable hands. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of, and it was clear she truly enjoys what she does. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter. A well-deserved five-star experience!

Hope was somewhat new to Rover but I found her to be a wonderful pet sitter. She was always prompt, sent pictures and became good friends with Oliver. He looked forward to her visits. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting job. I definitely would use her again. Oliver really liked her and that was important! Great job Hope! Thank you!

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I know every dog is unique and needs unique care. I want to make sure your dog is treated with care and understanding while you're away! I have experience giving oral medications (both pills and liquids). I currently have an open schedule for summer! Whether you need a dog walk or multiple visits for feedings while you're away, I've got you covered! I want to build a trusting relationship with you and you're pets. For home visits, I will take time to ensure your pet is eating and drinking well, make sure litter boxes and crates are clean, and each pet knows I'm there to make them feel safe and loved. Is you're pet a little shy? No worries! I'll give their privacy after making sure everything is taken care of.

I have lots of energy myself and will love your pet as much as both of mine! I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets, I’m around most weekends if needed. Typically I don’t work past 2pm and can do early mornings before 7am.

About: I have worked professionally in the dog care industry for 3 years as a Doggy Daycare Attendant and Professional Dog Bather. During that time, I have cultivated skills that include puppy and senior canine care, administering topical and oral medications, and assisting physically disabled pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am happy to tailor my care to the specific requirements a pet parent has described. I am available 9 am-6 pm, Tuesday through Saturday, every week for drop-in visits, walks, and playtimes. My schedule will be updated if and when my responsibilities change. I am happy to follow specific instructions in your home and on your property when taking care of your pet. Please let me know if you'd like shoes removed at the door, rooms to remain unaccessed, where you would like pets kept once I leave the premises, and any other important details about your home and pet.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs of many different kinds and have several years of hands-on experience caring for them in addition to caring for my own family dogs. I’ve pet sat for friends and family and have helped care for my roommates puppies since she first came home. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and sticking to each pet’s normal routine. I know every dog has their own personality, so I always take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they have peace of mind. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care throughout the day whether your pet needs morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, and overnight care. I’m more than happy to work with your schedule to meet their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep the routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I will follow your pets regular schedule for meals, water refills, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other care instruction you provide. I believe every pet deserves plenty of attention, patience and affection, so I’ll make sure they receive the companionship and exercise they need while you’re away. I also value open communication and will keep you updated with messages and photo so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

This is the second summer in a row that we've booked Hannah to care for our cat while we were away on our extended vacation. We can't thank her enough for the wonderful care she gave Edison. Her regular updates and photos gave us great peace of mind, and it was clear that Edison truly enjoyed Hannah's company. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter. We'll definitely book her again!

I appreciated Sydneys prompt response to my initial inquiry and questions/messages. She was flexible on short notice to come to meet us and do a drop in the next day. Followed all instructions (in my way too long note), checked in, sent pictures and all was well with my pup on return. Sydney is nice, mature and trustworthy. She is just starting out on Rover so for just figuring all that out — she was great. Sometimes I look for a lot of reviews but glad I gave Sydney a try for sure. Don’t hesitate — I recommend Sydney and I’ll book with her again!

Ayla is awesome! Trustworthy and attentive. She brings a good, calming energy that is needed for my very excitable dog. I specifically booked her because of her PM availability. I work 12 hour night shifts I and needed someone to let my dog out for a pee break around 11pm. She also takes great care of my cats when I’m away for the weekend. It gives me great peace of mind to leave my pets in her care!

Brianna took amazing care of my 3 kitties. They absolutely loved her. Her communication was excellent and my cats barely noticed I was even gone. She did the cutest arts and crafts projects with them, brushed them, took out the trash and left my place spotless (other than the amazing arts and crafts I came home to.) All of my instructions were followed perfectly, she never left any trash behind, and brought so many treats and toys for the kitties! She came to meet the kitties ahead of time and bonded with them so fast. I would trust Brianna with my cats in a heartbeat and I don’t even trust my parents with them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Antioch on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 1,278 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Antioch. 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 Antioch. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
