“Thank you for taking such good care of our kitties! Everything went smoothly for our first trip away from them. Reliable and caring sitters with true love for cats!”
“Taqauashia was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me updated, sent pictures, and took such good care of my cat, Moxie. Moxie is a little shy at first, but she warmed up quickly and was super comfortable—which made me feel so at ease. Everything was smooth, my home was in great shape, and she even brought a package in for me which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Tracy is a fantastic dog sitter! I recently hired Tracy to look after my two dogs, Dixie and Kaya, while I was away, and he absolutely exceeded my expectations. From the very first communication, Tracy was professional, responsive, and genuinely enthusiastic about caring for them. He arrived on time for every feeding, and play session and sent daily updates with photos and messages so I never had to worry. If you're looking for a reliable, caring sitter, I highly recommend Tracy. My dogs were in great hands, and I'll definitely be booking him again the next time I travel. Thanks, Tracy!”
“Very happy with the job Rachel did taking care of my cats while I was away. Very good communication and always provided updates and photos. Will definitely rebook this sitter again. Highly recommend!”
“Hannah was incredible again! Our dogs adore her and they’re always so happy when we get home. This says a lot since we have a rescue who is normally very shy and reserved after we are gone for a bit! We cannot wait to use her again!”
“I’m so grateful for Katrina and the amazing care she provided for my cat while I was out of town. She was flexible and understanding when my travel plans changed due to flight delays, which made a stressful situation so much easier. My cat was clearly well cared for, and it was such a relief knowing she was in good hands. Katrina is not only reliable and professional but also a genuinely lovely person. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I'm Courtney! I have been caring for dogs for over 20 years, both as a pet owner and a professional sitter. Me & my pit bull, Tulip, love new friends and we guarantee that your babies will be loved, well fed & given all the belly rubs while you’re away!! I currently work from home so I have a flexible schedule. I have a large fenced in backyard corner lot with a gate that provides so many places to run & play all day! I am happy to adhere to your babies food schedule!! My fenced-in corner lot provides ample space for running and playtime! My dog, Tulip, loves to make new friends! If your dog is best suited to a one-dog-only home, this would not be the best fit for them!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Arlington
Marie was a life saver. I had just moved to Montgomery and then had to leave the next day for a work trip. Marie accepted the request on short notice and came over the next day! Pickles (who usually hides from everyone) even let Marie pet her! Marie fed and kept Pickles happy and sent me pics and detailed updates daily. I was worried about leaving Pickles so soon after a move and having Marie care for her put me at ease so I could focus on my first conference at my new job. I will use Marie every time I need someone to keep Pickles happy and fed and cares for. Marie also knew when Pickles had had enough of being nice to a new person and gave her space. Oh! And I so appreciated the pics and updates after Marie’s visits. Thank you Marie!
This was my first time using this service and I am GRATEFUL to have chosen Antonio. He was patient, kind, and fully engaged with my senior fur baby. Dutch does not typically gravitate to people easily but there was no barrier in care with Antonio. I will definitely be reaching out again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Arlington is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $26 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.

- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
