“Melina was attentive, experienced and accommodating. She even cleaned up after our cat after she vomited a mouse up onto the carpeted stairs. That is going above and beyond... we are forever grateful!”
“Mikaela is amazing! One of my cats is pretty skittish, but both cats absolutely adored her and would come out to see her! We are so thankful to have found her and look forward to having her watch our cats in the future!”
“Thompson was very communicative, so helpful and understanding. She took great photos, wrote nice notes and was able to quickly befriend our standoffish cat. We will be hiring her again in the future!”
“Caitlyn did a great job taking care of my cats! She was communicative throughout the stay, followed all of my care instructions, and I felt confident that my cats were well taken care of while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and I would definitely recommend her and book with her again!”
“Fiona was amazing!!! This was our first time using Rover and we seriously got really lucky choosing her. She took care of our two cats while we were gone, sent so many great photos the entire time, and gave detailed updates. They were so clearly taken such good care of. We appreciated all that she did, going above and beyond our expectations. Would 100% book with Fiona again!”
About: I’ve grown up with and have had 4 Great Danes throughout my life! I also regularly dog sit for a family friend, which includes an anxious dog with a specific diet, specific feeding times and medications! I’m currently working part time mornings, and will be available for overnight boarding at my home throughout the week! I provide a calm, homey environment and will plan my schedule around potty breaks, meals, and quality time. My boyfriend is the other occupant of our home! I live in an apartment complex with a park and trail directly across the street. My home is very quiet and calm, and I can be with them all day!

I have over 10+ years of experience with my own furbabies but this will be my first time dog/cat sitting. I have house sat for friends and family but not the general public. I'm a full-time LMT.

We clip all of our 3 cats and they are so good with it cause they get treats after lol. We have 10yr grey torti/10yr tabby/8yr old black maincoone mix.
“Charlotte was a most excellent caregiver from start to finish for my elderly cat. She came by for a meet & greet with us before I went out of town which put me and my cat Dude at ease. During her check-ins she provided awesome updates and photos which I greatly appreciated & enjoyed. We will definitely reach out to her again. Highly recommend this sitter for your pets needs.”
“Maddy and Nicole did a great job taking care of our cats, Gus and Kit Kat, while home sitting our place for two weeks. Kit Kat has had sitters previously that he never warmed to and half way through this trip we were getting pics of Kit Kat coming out of hiding and taking pets. There were no surprises when we got home, the house was clean and cats were happy. You can't ask for more and I wouldn't hesitate to book with them in the future.”
“Jordan did a great job! They kept the space clean, litter boxes tidy, and the cats fed and entertained with lots of pictures and updates! Very grateful for their care.”
About: I had the privilege of working at a state-of-the-art cat rescue (Cat Depot in Sarasota, Florida) for three years before recently beginning my career in water treatment. During that time, I was part of a team that helped get over three thousand cats adopted, four of which came home with me! I also have experience from cat-sitting for friends and family members for several years. I promise to provide the same high standard of care for your cats that I do my own ❤️ I only work 15 days out of the month which allows me to dedicate many of my days off to pet care. On days that I do work, I am also available after 6pm. My drop-ins include feeding, scooping litter boxes, refreshing water, playing and/or chilling together, and sending photos. I am also experienced in administering oral medication to willing cats.
About: I have been taking care of animals for nearly 25 years, with 15 of those years in professional settings. I have three large breed dogs in my home at the moment, and grew up with 5 Rottweilers, a Jack Russell, an American bulldog, & a German Shepherd, leading me to rescuing as an adult. Along with our pack, we also did rescuing through Cody‘s club, which is a Rottweiler rescue in Pennsylvania. I have rescued and rehomed over 1000 dogs of all temperaments and feel I have the patience for any personality. I have worked in chains like Petsmart as an animal caretaker and am well-versed in many species. If you select me as a sitter, I will be happy to be the bonus best friend your animal didn’t know they needed! I am currently a stay at home, dog mom. I go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I am available any other day of the week. I am willing to stay for a week at a time if needed, but will leave the house to go to school. All in all I have plenty of time to spend with your pet and ensure they are getting all of the love and support they need while you are out of the house. I have dogs of all ages with various needs and specialized diets. My animals adhere to a feeding schedule, so I have no problem with ensuring that your pets are fed in a timely manner according to your everyday schedule. I know pet CPR and know where the closest ER vets are in case of extreme emergencies. My oldest bully has seizures, so I am aware of how to handle medical situations and have the ability to remain calm. My oldest dog was also reactive, and I have spent the last 2 years integrating him into his pack. He was our first dog and now lives with a female Doberman and a male American bulldog who are both larger than him with absolutely no issues. I state this because I want to make you aware that I am confident in working with reactive dogs, especially fear aggression towards other dogs. Not all dogs are the same, but I have gone to classes to develop the skills to keep your reactive dog safe on walks. I have a vast background with hundreds of different dogs and want to reassure you that your pup is in the safest of hands with me.
About: You can count on me to be a reliable sitter for your pets. Happy to learn anything needed to take proper care of your loved one. Have senior dog & puppy experience I currently work full time Wednesdays through Saturdays. I am available Sundays through Tuesdays. I am occasionally available on Friday & Saturday evenings. Feel free to reach out for visits or walks on Fridays or Saturdays after 6:30pm I live in a two bedroom apartment with our own furry loved ones, so I cannot offer in home stays. Will happily hangout with your pets in the comfort of their home & neighborhood. Have crate experience for your pets if needed

Silvia took amazing care of our cat. She was thorough, followed every instruction to the tee, and best of all was so genuinely affectionate and warm with our sweet girl. We could tell that our kitty was happy and content while we were gone. I'd book Silvia again in a heartbeat. Thanks Silvia!
Victoria did an absolutely incredible job taking care of our three cats! She gave incredible updates and photos the entire time. She made sure to give all of our cats tons of love, play time, and attention. I couldn’t be more grateful for her service. Highly recommend!
Stephanie is great! Would definitely ask her to watch my bengal cats again! She was very communicative, especially since one cat was finicky about her food while I was gone. Sent tons of photos, which I appreciate, and I didn’t have to worry about my cats at all!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Applewood is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
