About: I have a very calming, peaceful and patient nature. I let an animal approach me when they are ready. I start with appropriate treats and see how they react to me in order to build a relationship. I work part time various days during the week. Sometimes I work during the day, sometimes I work in the evening/night. It is mostly on weekends that I work in the evening/night. My day shifts start at 11 and end at 3. My evening/night shifts start between 3-5. The longest I am away at night is 6 hours, of course the earlier I start the earlier I leave. I try to accommodate everyone’s needs as best as possible. My schedule is pretty flexible so I am able to work and give loving care and exercise to my dogs on a daily basis with the support of my family with all of us pitching in. As well as enjoying other things than work such as travel, reading, riding my bike, getting together with friends, and more. But at the end of the day, there is nothing like just being able to spend some quality time with my fur babies. In my home I have two dogs. I take them out twice a day for walks. They get plenty of belly rubs and kisses. One sleeps with me in my bed and is kind of my therapy dog, and he knows it!
“We drove into Apex, NC, from Ohio. Scott made time for our two dogs on a busy Saturday. He met them at our hotel at 8 a.m. and returned in the evening so we could attend a local charity event. He fit us in-between other drop-in appointments. I appreciated Scott’s photos and texts, which let us know how the dogs were doing. Scott is experienced and flexible. One of our dogs was anxious over the weekend, and Scott managed the situation. We felt our dogs were in good hands!”
“Savannah has a wonderful personality and has SUCH a way with animals. Our Louie quickly fell in love with her and was well cared for during the check in. She truly provides quality care and it’s more than we could ever ask for! Thank you so much for everything Savannah! We can’t wait to use you again in the future!!”
“Aqsa was wonderful. Dependable and conscientious with my two kitties. They can be a bit challenging but she excelled at winning them over. I was able to travel worry free which was so important to me. Aqsa, Thank you so much.”
“Rachel is wonderful. She sent pictures of my cats and the things she did for them. She also grabbed a package that came in for us at the apartment Amazon locker. She is wonderful, very communicative, loves animals, and you won't regret hiring her.”
“I was initially nervous about having someone come in to check-in on my 14 week old puppy, Rosie. After meeting Shannon, I felt confident that Rosie was in good hands. Shannon was very communicative leading up to the first visit, let me know when she was with my pup, and shared pictures of their visit. Will definitely be using Shannon again!”
“Rosemary was great with my boys, sat with them on every visit and sent me pictures of them while she was taking care of them. This was the second time that I have used Rover and both times I’ve been very pleased with the care of my animals.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets on and off since high school. In the summer of 2023, I helped my neighbor walk two dogs regularly—an older Golden Retriever and a young Pomeranian. I’ve also walked a large Standard Poodle and have experience with dogs of different sizes and energy levels. Some friends have trusted me with pet-sitting at my home; the longest stay was nine days, caring for a medium-sized Poodle and a small mixed breed dog. I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in a new environment. In the past, I also raised a rescued orange tabby cat from kittenhood. He was with us for many years and remains a very special part of my life. I currently work part-time on weekdays and have flexible availability after 5 PM. Right now, I offer dog walking or cat care—this includes feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and giving your pets plenty of love and attention. I’m not offering boarding services at the moment, but I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and routines. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, energy level, and preferences. Whether it’s a shy cat or an energetic dog, I make sure they feel safe and loved while their humans are away. I’m also happy to hear about any special notes or things I should be aware of regarding your pet.
“Wendy is the best cat sitter we've had. She communicates professionally and is flexible with key pickup and drop offs. She is reasonable with her pricing, even on holidays. She did drop-ins with our cat for 10 days over Christmas and we never had to worry about him. She sent a note and photos every day which brightened our days when we'd see them. Thanks Wendy!”
“I had a great experience with Pamela. She was very attentive to my cat and paid close attention to her eating and bathroom behaviors. She sent great pictures and notes after each visit. I appreciate all she did during her stays!”
“Jenny always takes such good care of my two dogs! I can tell that they both love her, and I am able to fully relax during vacations knowing that they are in excellent hands with her!”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Apex is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Apex
Roxanna was a great friend to our kitties and fish while we went away. She is very personable and good with animals. She was patient with our Bowie who has a big personality! She gave great feedback and pics from her visits which also made us at ease. Would recommend her care!
Jessica is the best!!! She has watched our cats a few times now and I feel so at ease with her caring for our cats. She handles the medications, food, litter, and even offers to do some cleaning up after our very messy kitties. Shes a great communicator and sends wonderful pictures of our pets. She even brings toys from home sometimes! We really appreciate her.
Sriya always takes such good care of my two cats! She is highly detail-oriented, punctual, and an animal-lover to her core. She gives us great peace of mind with plenty of pictures and thorough updates. Whether it’s daily drop-in visits, or a multi-day overnight stay, she has been incredibly respectful of our home and the boundaries of our (admittedly difficult) cats. I highly recommend her services!!
Courtney is a wonderful sitter for our little old lady cat. She gives her cuddles and treats every visit and makes sure she gets fresh air on the porch if weather allows. She is also a great communicator and follows directions for care exceptionally well. She is one of our go-to sitters :-)

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

As of August 2026, there are 2,732 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Apex. 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 Apex. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
