About: Hello! My name is Brianna! I have a French bulldog named Stella who is my world! I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds! I also don’t mind helping out with other animals in your home! My personal dog takes daily medication so if that’s something your pet needs I’m used to that already! I'm currently working shift work with a pretty flexible schedule. My days off and hours always change. Please reach out and we can figure out how I can best take care of your pets. I understand that pets are family members. I will make sure that they are taken out at the agreed upon times. I can send you photos throughout their care. I want to take the stress away from you while you are away knowing that your pet is in great hands.

About: I am a dog handler for work and have been doing this job for 3 years now. I grew up with big dogs and cats my whole life, and have so much love and compassion for all animals. I am currently working full time with a monthly schedule change. 1st month I will work from 4am-5 pm. 2nd month I will work 8am-5pm. And my 3rd month I will work 4pm- 5am shift. I will sometimes have to leave the local area for work but will be notified in advance! My schedule can seem kinda crazy but I love to work! I currently live in an apartment and won’t be able to do any pet care in my home, but I have no problem with traveling to your home to let your fur babies out for walks, play time, feed and whatever else they need!

About: I currently work at a veterinary hospital, where caring for animals is part of my daily routine. I have hands-on experience with feeding, administering basic care, monitoring behavior, and handling pets of all temperaments. I also have cats of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, comfort, and routine. I’m confident caring for both dogs and cats, including those that may need extra attention, and I always treat every pet like my own. I work Monday through Friday at a veterinary hospital, so I’m already actively caring for animals throughout the day. I’m available for pet care services in the evenings after work and fully available on weekends. My schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care while still giving your pet plenty of attention and time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With my experience in a veterinary setting, I’m trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or unusual behavior. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and needs to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment and follow all instructions closely.

About: Hey there! I’ve been caring for animals for over 25 years…or really, my whole life! From dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even fish, I’ve shared my life with animals of all kinds. I currently live with four cats who have taught me even more about patience, play, and intuitive communication. I’ve also helped friends with pet care, walked dogs of all sizes, and provided loving attention to pets while their humans were away. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I feel deeply connected to them. I believe in meeting each animal where they are, tuning into their energy, and ensuring they feel safe, seen, and nurtured. Whether it’s a playful walk, cozy check-in visit, or overnight care, I’m committed to showing up with love, attentiveness, and a calm, grounded presence. Your pet will be treated like one of my own! Pet care fits beautifully into my current schedule. I’m seeking flexible work that keeps me close to home so I can care for my four cats and continue pursuing my passion for baking. My days are open and adaptable, and I love spending time with animals. I’m currently available most days and times, and I genuinely enjoy being outside for walks or tending to pets’ unique needs. This work is a natural extension of my lifestyle. I treat all pets like family, tuning into their needs with care and calm energy. Whether in my home or yours, I create a peaceful, loving environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, maintain clean spaces, and follow feeding or medication routines exactly. My four cats are well-loved and cared for, and I bring that same intention and presence to every animal I care for.

Ramon has also been in care of plenty of his family dogs growing up as well! There was always no less than 4 dogs in the house at a time. We love dogs so much and there will be an abundance of love to go around with my family. We can't wait to play with our new furry friends. My boyfriend and i have plenty of time through out the week together to care for your beloved pets! I have a full time job so i help where i can but my boyfriend is currently in school and has plenty of time in between classes to care for your furry friends! In our house, my partner ramon and i try to create a warm, inviting, and loving atmosphere. With my senior yorkie mix along with my 2 young cats we have everything your furry friend may want or need: toy galore, bottomless treats, long walks, and all the affection in the world. From long boarding/ house sitting to as small as a walk we aim to provide care to your furry loved ones just as they were one of ours! <3

“I had a great experience with Ademide. She agreed to cat-sit on short notice and looked after my Luna for a whole week and some days. Our communication was smooth and reassuring and I received timely updates, cute videos and photos that showed my cat was comfortable and happy. My cat seemed relaxed and well looked after when I returned. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Ashbox

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,921 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ashbox. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ashbox. On Rover:

  • 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 87% 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.
