“Cindy was great with Zoey! She’s very communicative, sent updates and photos throughout their visit. I highly recommended using Cindy’s services, I know I’ll be a repeat customer the next time I head out of town!”
“Jaylyn did an amazing job taking care of Athena! She was dependable, attentive, and kept me updated throughout the entire time I was away. It was clear that Athena was well cared for and comfortable with her, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I really appreciated the level of care and attention Jaylyn gave Athena. She went above and beyond to make sure she was taken care of and kept me informed about how she was doing. I would absolutely trust Jaylyn with Athena again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and genuinely attentive to their pet. Thank you again, Jaylyn, for taking such great care of Athena!”

“This is the third time I have had Sophie watch my dog, and, as usual, she did an outstanding job. I don’t worry about my dog when Sophie is taking care of her. She’s so responsible, communicative, and friendly. And of course, my dog loves her too! I will continue to ask Sophie to watch over my dog when I travel- I can’t say enough good things about her!!”
“Tiffanie did an amazing job watching our cat Pekoe while we were away. Pekoe doesn't usually take well to new people, but she warmed up to Tiffanie right away. She followed all of our instructions perfectly, made plenty of time to play with and give affection to Pekoe, and gave us regular and thorough updates with each visit. Would highly recommend Tiffanie as a trustworthy sitter and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

Ajia did a phenomenal job taking care of our two cats, and kept us well-informed throughout. She was considerate, making sure she understood any specific needs, as well as thorough and diligent. Just as importantly, our cats looked forward to seeing her arrive! We would recommend Ajia to anyone.
Erin was great. I had Erin come by twice a day to drop-in on my cats. My cats are shy and Erin was able to bond with them even though they are shy. She fed, cleaned the litter boxes and played with them. She provided good updates and shared plenty of photos. Thanks, Erin
Rachel was amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! We booked her last minute after our original cat sitter had cancelled on us. She was friendly, kind and sweet. Her energy was exactly what the cats needed while we were away. Our male cat is not always ready to warm up to new people but loved Rachel. Thank you Rachel for making our fur babies comfortable while we were away! We will be booking again 🤗

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Arlington on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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:
- 89% 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 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.
