“Eleshia was amazing with my senior cat that requires medicine 2x per day. Very communicative and followed care guidelines perfectly! We will definitely be using her again when available!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and trained vet tech with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, and both saltwater and freshwater fish. As a mother of three and the proud owner of 5 cats and 2 dogs, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I bring patience, reliability, and a calm, compassionate approach to every visit. I specialize in drop-ins and overnight care in your home, helping pets stay comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m also available for holiday pet care, so families can travel with peace of mind knowing their pets are being loved and cared for like my own. Caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I’m available in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and for overnight stays, which lets me give pets consistent attention and companionship. Whether it’s a walk to start the day or a cozy check‑in at night, I make pet care a natural part of my routine. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their own home. I follow their normal schedule, meals, walks, medication, playtime, and quiet time, so everything feels familiar and stress‑free for them. I’m attentive to safety, always checking doors, gates, and surroundings, and I keep their space clean and calm. When I stay overnight, I make sure they have steady companionship and a peaceful environment. I also send regular updates and photos so owners always feel connected and confident while they’re away.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for a while. I know how to take care of a wide range of animals including dogs of different sizes and breeds. I am a full time college student but I am free in the afternoons and evenings every day and open to working with schedules to make something a good fit! I am comfortable staying in a clients home and will provide a great service. I will maintain a clean and safe environment during my stay and will respect my surroundings as they are my own.
“Hope has been great with communication and attention to detail. I have many specific requests with my elderly dog and Hope has confirmed every one while also being patient when I was out of cell/wifi range. I plan to continue to work with her 😊”
“Christine is AWESOME! I wish there was a 10 star option. She was so patient with my grumpy, old man cat. After five days together, they were best friends. She was on top of communication as well. Highly recommend!”
About: Aloha! I’m Amber, a pet sitter based in Grand Junction, Colorado, with 14 years of pet care experience. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, as well as a wide variety of breeds and sizes, ranging from Yorkies to Great Danes. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, and I tailor their care accordingly. - I currently offer boarding in my home for up to three dogs from the same household at a time, allowing me to provide each guest with plenty of individual attention and care. My goal is to provide a comfortable, home-like environment where your pets can feel safe, settled, and cared for while you’re away. - In addition to dogs, I have previous experience caring for cats, birds, reptiles, and other small animals. I’m not currently offering standalone boarding services for these pets; however, additional pets from the same household may be considered when boarding your dog. - At this time, I’m only offering boarding in my home and am not available for in-home pet sitting at other locations. Feel free to message me with any questions or to discuss your pet’s individual needs! I work from home, so I’ll be available throughout your pet’s stay to help maintain their normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable and secure. Home Environment: My home has a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. We also live just a short drive from a local trail and park. I have a 20 lb male Havanese who lives in the home. - Drop-Off & Introductions: I typically do a quick door hand-off at drop-off to help keep the transition calm and minimize distractions. Once your dog(s) come inside with me, they’re given time to explore the space at their own pace. We’ll unpack their things and give them some time to settle in and get comfortable before introducing them to my dog. Introductions are done one-on-one, gradually, and under my close supervision. Feel free to get to know my dog by viewing his profile below! Please note that my dog does not participate in meet & greets. - Exclusive Care & Multiple-Household Bookings: For safety and to help everyone adjust comfortably, I accept no more than three guest dogs at a time. For dogs who are reactive or have higher exercise and enrichment needs, including some high-energy and sporting breeds, I may limit this to two depending on my partner’s schedule so I can provide each dog with the attention they need. I’ve recently opened up my schedule to accept weekend daycare bookings from different households at the same time. At the time I respond to your initial request, I actively consider your dog(s) on my schedule while we’re ironing out the details. If another household is interested in the same dates, I’ll always let you know and discuss it with you first. I will not accept another household once your dog(s) are already in my care unless it has been discussed and approved by you prior to arrival. If you prefer exclusive care, please let me know! There is no additional charge for exclusive care, and once your booking is confirmed as exclusive, I will not accept another household for the same dates or overlapping drop-off/pick-up times. If there happens to be a same-day drop-off/pick-up conflict due to close timing windows, I’ll work with you to see if your dog(s) are comfortable riding in my car or truck and whether pickup or drop-off at your home would be a good option. Certain households will automatically receive exclusive care, including females in heat, intact males, puppies who are still completing their vaccination series, and senior dogs with modified vaccination schedules. For multiple-household bookings, I will confirm that all dogs are up to date on core vaccinations plus Bordetella. Safety comes first, and multiple-household bookings will always depend on each dog’s temperament, needs, and compatibility. - Supervision & Separation: Playtime is supervised, and separation from my own dog using a playpen or kennel is available as needed for individual enrichment, personal space, or throughout the stay if your dog(s) are more comfortable on their own. Dogs are also separated during mealtimes based on their individual needs, feeding habits, and comfort levels. - Routines & Training Tools: If your dog normally sleeps or eats in a crate, please bring it with them when possible so I can maintain their usual routine. Depending on the size of their crate or setup, I may not always be able to accommodate their typical arrangement, so please let me know in advance. Barking is completely expected, so please don’t worry if your dog tends to be vocal. I just appreciate a heads up! If your dog currently uses a clicker, e-collar, muzzle, or other training tool as part of their established routine, I’m happy to continue using it during their stay. Please let me know ahead of time and provide any instructions needed for proper use. - Last-Minute Bookings & Availability: For last-minute bookings, I may have prior commitments that require me to be out of the home for a short period. If so, I’ll let you know prior to confirming. My partner, Dalton, also works from home and would be here during that timeframe to watch over your dog(s). I also have two Furbo cameras set up in the home so I can check in while I’m away. - At this time, I only offer pet sitting in my home and am not available for in-home sitting at other locations.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Appleton is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of November 2026, there are 44 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Appleton. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Appleton. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
