Our second time using Sharyn to watch our kitties - this time she kitten-sat as opposed to watching our very old men. Sharyn kept us in the loop about their various shenanigans and took very good care of them. We will definitely rebook!

Elizabeth was great with my cat, Lawrence! I was flexible with the timing of her drop-in visits, and she was very communicative with exactly when she would be here. She sent lots of photos and spent plenty of time with Lawrence. I would definitely hire Elizabeth again!

Took care of my kitty like her own. Even brought her a scratching pad. The pictures that were taken were beautiful and made me feel good while on vacation knowing my kitty was in good hands. A++

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was in highschool, when I would dog walk and house sit while owners are on vacation. I have plenty of free time because I’m currently in school for my masters and have a lot of time to care for many pets. I will make sure to ensure there harness is on correctly while I walk pets and make sure the door is closed tight when picking them up .

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a child, living with no less than 3 dogs at a time growing up, including other animals such as rabbits, Guinea pigs, turtles, bearded dragons, diamond tale doves and my current dog and cat. I’ve rescued 2 dogs from SPCA and trained them to be happy, healthy, content companions. I’ve taken care of cats, reptiles and dogs for neighbors in my hometown for over 10 years. I have experience with puppies and new litters so I’d be able to help out with that as well if needed. Everyone in my household is an experienced animal lover/owner as well :) I’m currently out of work and home for now so I have quite a bit of free time to help out with the local pets in need! I can coke for house visits in the day to feed, walk or entertain your pets as needed. Id be willing to stay and play with them a bit and or walk them.

Vee was a very thorough sitter for my 2 year old cat. She took the time to visit with my cat beforehand and really understand her needs and what she’s used to. Vee sent me plenty of photos and a very detailed follow up note about her visit. My cat is definitely very particular and Vee did a great job caring for her!

I had a really positive experience. Sue came out for a meet and greet a couple days before so my puppy could get to know her. On the days of the service she walked him, played with him, and made sure he got some attention and activity. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the visits, which gave me peace of mind. Everything went smoothly and I felt he was well cared for.

About: I’ve been working with dogs and cats since July 2020 with minor experience in a grooming salon. I’ve always loved animals and decided to start my own dog walking business in February 2022 and have loved every aspect of it. If you’re interested in boarding, please message me before booking. I enjoy getting to know pets and their families and always make time to go over all your needs thoroughly to ensure you can trust to leave your animal with me comfortably. Your dogs needs are always my top priority and will never hesitate to protect your baby in an unsavory situation. I can administer a range of medicine, including insulin and administer fluids, adhere to any dietary and exercise needs, and love going on long walks at the park. Dog walking and sitting is my full time occupation. I am usually walking dogs from 9am-3pm on a daily basis. I have a few families that depend on me daily and some for emergencies or last minute bookings throughout the week. I book most of my stays in advance and recommend that if I cannot leave your dog unattended for at least 4 hours to look elsewhere (sorry!). My calendar is updated daily, please reach out and say hello! I always make sure to meet with a family before confirming a booking. If the booking is far enough in advance I recommend at least 1 or 2 more visits prior to the families departure just to go over basic info, daily routines, and to let your pet get more familiar with me. I’m always happy to stay over night, am very friendly with neighbors, and am a quiet homebody type. I would never invite guests over while you’re gone and always make sure I leave your home cleaner than you left it. Your trust is most important to me and hope you will consider me when booking your next trip!

Tasha takes our two dogs Cody and Tobey for walks every week. Cody is a difficult one as he is a large yellow lab who is older and grumpy and can be aggressive. Tasha is patient yet persistent when it comes to caring for him. Her pictures and texts about the results of the walk always make my day.

About: As a dog owner myself, I treat every dog like they’re my own. My goal isn’t just to walk your pup—it’s to make sure they come home happy, safe, and mentally fulfilled As a dog owner myself, caring for animals has become a natural part of my daily routine. I love staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve while their owners have peace of mind. I know how important it is to run on a strict schedule. As I own a dog myself, she too is provided with strict feeding and walking times that fit our schedule. I will do everything I can to make sure your pet is treated with the same care and respect!

I’ve helped with dogs as small as malteses and as big as goldendoodles! Ive also helped dogs with specific needs such as blind and older dogs!

I also typically work 8-4:30 so I’m happy to take dogs out in the mornings before work or as soon as I get home! I’m also happy to do weekends. I have a fenced yard for any pet to wander around in and am happy to walk them around my neighborhood park! No other pets in the home!

About: I’ve worked as a manager at a doggy daycare for over three years, where I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m trained in dog handling and care, and I truly love what I do. I understand dogs’ behavior, needs, and body language, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m available from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., and again from 7:30 p.m. until late in the evening. I’m flexible and always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs and schedule. It works best for me to care for your pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and relaxed. I’m flexible and always do my best to adapt to your pet’s routine.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Applegarth

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Applegarth on Rover is $24 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,092 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Applegarth. 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 Applegarth. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
