“Amy was great checking in on my pup, and I love that she was just as responsive as when I booked her for daycare. She sent me photo updates which I loved! I can tell she and her kids really love spending time with Lilo which is so comforting.”
“Bekah has proven to be dependable, punctual, and trustworthy. During my time away, Bekah regularly sent photos, and messages, which gives us peace of mind. Even my timid pet warmed up to her. Furthermore, she left my home clean, tidy, and secure. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Bekah look after their pets.”
About: Taken care of my medium sized dog for ~6 years. I've cat sit for many of my neighbors, cats of various temperaments and health issues. I've also done senior care (mainly memory issues & food check ins), and am an Eagle Scout. Currently unemployed, so I'm quite open to any time for cat or dog care. Within normal day time hours preferred, but no real preference otherwise. I unfortunately cannot take your pet into my home. My dog has not been acclimated enough to other pets enough for comfort. I am more than willing to help in a place they're more comfortable with.
“Rhianna was so great with our old man. He has arthritis and cannot hear well and she was so patient and attentive to him. She was on time and gave updates every time she dropped in. Overall she was wonderful and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Brooke was amazing and took such great care of my two cats while I was away. She was a great communicator and always told me when she was heading to my place. She also always left a thorough review of each visit with pictures included. I was confident that the cats got the best care possible!!”
“Robert was amazing. He's very sweet and attentive and JuJu loved him. When we returned everything was fine. Robert video chatted with us, sent video, and pics every day we were away. He let himself into our home and we had 0 issues! I would definitely book with Robert again and again!”
“We were pleased that Presley was available to watch our senior cat at rather late notice. She very kindly came to our home prior to watching our cat to meet me, our cat, Bentley, and to see the house and routine. Bentley, who can be unpredictable, warmed right up to Presley during their visits. Presley sent a photo and message each day letting us know that he was happy and well-cared for while we were away. Thankfully for us, Presley also helped us in a pinch with a pool maintenance issue. Thank you for all your help, Presley! We would be very happy to book with you again!”

“Titeara was AMAZING. She was like family to my babies. They were so comfortable with her, especially my shy one. She sent many updates and photos and even cleaned up behind them, without asking. She was great and made me being away care free. She was very respectful and treated my house as her own and my babies as her own as well. She is a blessing for sure.”
“Fran is great! She cared for our 4 pups with the utmost care and respect. She updated me as soon as she arrived. She sent me photos and gave me behavioral updates. Fran followed our directions for feeding, training and special care for our dogs. Fran also gave me an update as she was leaving to let me know how the visit went. Our dogs seem to really enjoy her company. When I arrived home, I could tell how appreciative our dogs were for Fran’s visit. They were quiet, calm, and acted like they had a fun day while I was at work. Fran is a kind, reliable, and honest animal sitter! Thank you so much, Fran”
About: Hey, I’m Caroline!😊 I have had pets all of my life including dogs(small&large), cats, and even guinea pigs! I would love to help care for your sweet babies whenever the time comes🩷 I currently work a part-time job at a nutrition shop! I usually work during the day, so no biggie if you need a night sitter! I am comfortable doing anything asked in your home! Whether it’s kenneling up or free roaming. I can walk them if you don’t have a fence or let them play in the yard!
“Samantha met my wife and I before her first visit with our cat. She was friendly, knowledgeable and put us at ease immediately. She visited with our cat Marbles for 4 days and she kept us informed prior, during and after each visit. She took pictures, played with him, made sure he had food and water and made sure his litterbox was cleaned. I couldnt ask for better. I will be contacting her everytime we need a sitter. I highly recommend her to care for your pets.”
About: I am very conscientious and caring. I have owned and cared for a lot of different animals. I will put your mind at ease and will work with you for the top quality care of your pet. I have a wide open daily schedule. I am an early riser and very flexible to meet your needs. I have a horse I visit and want to fill the rest of my time helping others with pet care. I have experienced firsthand how hard it is to get someone you can trust to look after your furry family and realize it is a need in the community. I currently work with my own two dogs every day to ensure they get the exercise needed and make their dog food from scratch so they remain healthy. I understand that your pet needs interaction and breaks from being by themselves while you are away. Commercial pet boarding just doesn’t cut it and takes them out of their safe familiar environment. Raising their stress levels. They don’t need that in your absence. I can take that stress away and make some friends in the process.
“Danielle was amazing. I couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care my dog Simba received. From the beginning, her communication was clear, professional, and friendly. She took time to understand Simba’s routine, personality, and needs. She updated me with pictures and videos which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Danielle as a dog sitter for anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet care! Thanks Danielle!”
“Jennifer is the best. The dogs love her and she was very attentive. She sent me wonderful pics and communicated often. She had a family emergency during her sitting time, but still made sure my pups were taken care of. YES!!! I will use her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Arlington on Rover is $39.96 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 327 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Arlington. 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 Arlington. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
