“Alexa was so great with our doggos while we were gone! They are pretty protective and she didn’t hesitate or waste anytime getting them warmed up to her. Very evident she has a lot of experience with all types of dogs. Definitely recommend!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Ashley! She watches my pup frequently and I always feel very comfortable leaving him knowing he's being well cared for and getting lots of love. I highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“Madelynn was amazing with my kitties, and gave them loads of love and attention. She sent great pics & kept me updated the entire time! I felt so much more comfortable with her there. She was warm & friendly, wanting to introduce herself beforehand, and gave some information about herself, which made the whole process that much better!”
“Ashlee is the very best; our dogs and cats love her! She is reliable, kind, and always on time. We will continue to ask for her help anytime we need, and we highly recommend her!”
“Thank you, Anna for taking care of our Goldens! It was so nice coming home from our trip to happy dogs and clean floors. Our boys get nervous when they are left too long and they were not stressed at all when we returned. Thank you again!”
About: I grew up in a family where our dogs (specifically Labradors) were equal members of the family, and spending time with them is a treasured part of my childhood memories. I grew up around dog care, and while every pup is different, the basics of dog care are intuitive for me. As an adult I am the proud “parent” of two lively, playful cats, who have taught me to expand my pet care knowledge and skills. I do commute to northeastern Oklahoma and back each weekday for work, but I can always plan around early morning visits or nighttime visits (after 7pm). Weekends are much more flexible for me. Regardless of the day or time, visiting with your pet is the best part of my day! It is my policy to treat your pets with the same care, respect, and love as I treat my own. I ensure to carefully uphold any routines or regimens that you establish for your pet with an interest to maintaining a sense of stability and normalcy for them in your absence. I understand that all pets are different, and I will respect your pet’s demonstrated comfort levels in getting to know each other. I am a guest in your home and will behave as such, treating your belongings with the respect and privacy they deserve. As far as pet safety goes, I believe in over-communicating rather than under-communicating, so you can rest assured you will hear from me if anything seems amiss.
About: I worked in an animal daycare and also volunteer at animal shelters. I know how to clean and take care of all sorts and sizes of animals. I also know how to care and love them. I currently work a part-time job with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. With a couple days’ notice, I can usually adjust my schedule to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding times, and overnight care. I am happy to work with each pet’s normal routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by owners and make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I am patient and allow them time to become comfortable with me. I will give your pets plenty of attention, love, and care while keeping you updated during your time away.
“Holly did a great job taking care of my cat Phantom. She followed directions and was very responsible. I would highly recommend Holly and thank her for taking such good care of Phantom.”
About: I grew up with pet dogs. I've since become a "cat lady" but continue to love dogs. Out on neighborhood walks I have to stop and pet every dog and cat I meet! There's nothing like a bright dog face and and a wagging tail or a cat purring and rubbing against my legs! I'm recently retired and have lots of time to spend taking care of your pets. I'm available weekdays and weekends, daytime and evenings, and holidays. I'm flexible and open to hearing about your pet sitting scheduling needs. I grew up with dogs, but now I'm a cat lady who loves and pampers my little boy, Mr. Kitty. I prepare special food for him, give him lots of attention, and take him for long walks in his cat stroller. I'm an energetic and responsible recently retired hospice nurse. I'll pamper your pets and give them the greatest care. I'll also treat your space with respect and maintain a clean environment in your home.
“Marilyn did a great job communicating ahead of time and during her visits. She sent lots of pictures of our cats, their food being filled, and their water running. This gave us peace of mind while we were away! I’d definitely recommend her for anyone’s fur babies!”
“Kaylee was wonderful. She was very prompt and I appreciated the photos she took as well as the notes from the visit. My Trooper boy seemed very happy!! Will definitely use Kaylee again!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Appleby
We went on a cruise and hired our first pet sitter. We were so nervous about it but Breanna went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and informed. She came and met our dog beforehand, and explained how things work and met Maverick and made me feel very comfortable with the whole thing. She did an amazing job caring for our pets and sent photos with updates everyday. She even vacuumed up my dogs hair!!! Can’t recommend her enough.

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

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.
