About: UPDATE: I have a fully fenced 1.5 acres yard for dogs to run and play. I have trained dogs. I have worked at a humane society and worked on a farm. I groom and bathe my own dogs. I keep the yard picked up so that it is nice and neat for the dogs to play and do their business. I live with my husband, one dog, and two cats, I have worked with many different kinds of animals. . Both my husband and I are disabled and new to the area. This would be a great way to meet new people and make friends. My yard is fully fenced. I walk each dog separately and have toys for them to play with. I spend time with them going over basic commands. I also train them for the canine good citizens test. I have a fully fenced 1.5 acres for dogs to run and play. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to run. I watch the dogs and train them. I give each dog one on one time as well so they can get plenty of love and scratches.

About: I've grown up my whole life with many, many farm animals including dogs and cats. I always loved the pets the most and I can't wait to meet your's! My current occupation is as a Flight Instructor, so I have a very flexible schedule (since I make my own schedules). I am normally available anytime of the week since I have the flexibility to move things around my schedule. Have you ever met a pilot that's not oriented around safety? Well guess what, I can guarantee that your pet will be left in safe, loving arms.

Very happy to have found Dawn! She's caring and loves your babies like her own. Dawn was great at documenting Cashmere's glucose level (patience to get the blood draw is necessary and she was and gentle as well) and administering his insulin .... just all around very detailed in her notes and very appreciated! She sent pics too! Dawn moved any packages inside the house and was kind enough to water a plant outside when we didn't get much rain. We appreciate her detail and genuine care and highly recommend her! Thank you SO much, Dawn!!!

About: Hello! I’m Sue, and I’m excited to offer dog walking and drop-in sitting services for your pets. As someone who has had dogs and cats all my life, I bring a lifetime of experience caring for pets, both my own and others’. I currently live with a lovable crew that includes a Maine Coon mix cat, three dogs (a Tennessee Walker Hound, Chihuahua terrier mix, and dachshund mix), plus a few goats and chickens. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve provided drop-in care for birds, goats, and chickens, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals. I also have experience giving medications to dogs, and I’ve given pills to both dogs and my own cat, especially since my dog has health issues that require regular medication. I am committed to keeping clear and consistent communication with pet owners, ensuring you’re updated throughout my visits. I also ask that you do the same in the event there is a question of care, or in the off chance of an emergency. With my own transportation and a flexible schedule, I’m ready to accommodate your pet care needs and provide peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pets are well taken care of! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered) friends. I do have a small farm to tend to, but am flexible and able to easily fit it around pet sitting. I can care for your pets daily, but holidays are very busy. Because I have a household of pets of my own, I am not able to care for clients pets in my own home at this time. I offer dog walking in 30 minute increments, drop in visits to check on, feed, dispense meds, tend to cats.

About: Animals aren’t just pets to me. They are individuals with emotions, personalities, and needs that deserve to be understood and respected. You can feel completely at ease knowing their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. As an animal rights advocate, I approach every animal with genuine compassion and awareness, tailoring my care to who they are, not just what they need on paper. Whether they are energetic, shy, playful, or sensitive, I meet them where they are and give them the attention and love that helps them feel truly safe and seen. You can trust that I will show up consistently, follow routines closely, and create a calm, caring environment while you are away. I do not just watch animals. I connect with them, care for them, and treat them like they matter, because they do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I structure my schedule to allow consistent time for walks, feeding, check-ins, and companionship. I generally maintain a flexible routine, which allows me to adjust based on each pet’s needs and the specific care plan we agree on. I’m intentional about not overbooking so I can stay attentive and responsive while pets are in my care. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I prioritize clear communication and planning in advance to ensure expectations are aligned and your pet’s routine is supported as closely as possible. I aim to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment based on each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely while staying attentive to how your pet is feeling. In your home, I keep things consistent with their normal schedule so they feel secure. In my home, I maintain a clean, low-stress space with close supervision and attention to safety and care. I stay mindful during walks and interactions and avoid anything that could feel overwhelming or risky. I also provide regular updates with photos and check in if anything seems off so we can decide what’s best together. I do not have pets of my own, but there are pets in the home belonging to my roommates. They are well-managed, and I take care to ensure safe, controlled interactions. I can also keep pets fully separated at all times if preferred

About: I love spoiling dogs and making them feel loved. As a person who had a life long companion I feel like i know how to treat a dog the way they should be treated (which is with lost of treats and belly rubs). I would say that i am a really sweet and nice girl as well as pretty active too. I've worked with dogs as well at a groomers, which i think gives me advantage on understanding if there is something wrong or if the dog needs something. I will always work harder then what is conceded normal as well as super patient. Weather your dog is big or small i know i can be a great person of use when it comes to dog. Hope to see you and your big/small guy/girl! :)

About: My siblings and I had so many dogs growing up, we never even asked we just brought them home. We lived in the country (like dead end road and everything lol) so having a dog around training them and loving them was our lifeline. I work full time but am free nights and weekends. My husband is off for the summer and has been a great help taken care of our dogs and helping some times with requests. We live in an apartment complex that has a great big dog park, we also have two dogs that love to lay around. We did have ours crate trained and house trained.

About: Hello, My name is Katarina and I am currently a senior in college. I would love to help you and your animals while you are away. In my current home, I have a 8-year-old Siamese Tabby Mix cat and 2-year old Siamese. I grew up around animals my whole life. Since birth, I owned horses, dogs, and cats. I am very resourceful, responsible, and respectful. I love to go out on walks and runs, so if you have a spunky puppy I would love to help get their energy out! If you have an older dog I am very gentle and will take my time with them! Don’t worry! Due to the Florida heat, I will bring plenty of water for the dogs out on their walks and whatever time they want to be outside. I am very passionate about making sure you are satisfied with my service and most importantly your furry friends are taken care of! My times may vary day to day due to my Class Schedule and a part-time job. Regardless, please let me know how I can best help you and your furbabies! I will treat them like family! Due to being a college student, my schedule varies day to day. I work a part-time job on campus yet, I am still available and mostly flexible throughout the day. Your animals will be treated as if they were one of my own. I will make sure that your animals are well cared for and loved. I will also try to keep them on as close to their normal schedule as my schedule allows.

About: From a teacup poodle to a big mastiff, I've had pets of various sizes. I've pet-sit (or "cat-sat"), my friends and families pets whenever they needed so I'd be happy to do that as well. I'm also no stranger to helping feed pets their nasty medicine as well. I'm currently looking for a job as I've just moved down here! That being the case, I've got plenty of time (with almost an entirely free schedule), to walk and play with your pups! I have met dogs and cats of all energy levels, from pups that have high energy to those who like to make their daily rounds before plopping down for a nap. Whatever their needs are, I am happy to comply. Their comfort and enjoyment is my top priority!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Arcadia on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 11 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Arcadia. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
