“I had a great experience with Cathy! Her communication was excellent - she was responsive, clear, and kept me updated with detailed messages. She recognized my cat was overly anxious while I was away and she was more than willing to adjust the plans to fit my needs. Would highly recommend and will be booking for future services!”

“Helen was absolutely incredible with our two cats! They are seniors with special needs and very human-oriented, and Helen put our minds at complete ease when she house sat for a night and two days while we were out of state. She provided updates, photos, and kept in touch with us throughout the whole time we were away. She even very kindly brought our mail and hellofresh inside, and made up the bed so we could just drop our bags and settle in at home when we returned. Definitely rebooking anytime we need her services in the future!”

“Stephanie is a wonderful sitter and I felt completely relaxed keeping my Gumbo with her and her wonderful family. Her cats and dogs are very sweet and calm and welcoming to new pets so Gumbo was happy at her house! She sent pictures and updates which kept me in the loop with what Gumbo had going on. Thank you for your care, Stephanie!”

About: I’ve been a cat mama since our family cat chose me as his favorite nap spot the day I came home from the hospital! I raised my next bestie from the day she was born until she crossed the rainbow bridge, and I’ve loved my Fiona for nearly 14 years. I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages, including administering medication, accommodating quirky needs, and navigating sassy attitudes! I also grew up with a family dog and helped care for him while living at home and during college breaks. That included feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I bring patience and attention to each pet’s personality and routine, and I’m happy to learn all the little details that help yours feel comfortable and loved. I currently work freelance and have a very flexible schedule so my days are built around what bookings I have in a given week. Let me know what your needs are and we can work something out 🙂 Each visit comes will include a food, water and liter refresh plus treats, playtime and plenty of cuddles. I have plenty of experience with cats of all temperaments and will adjust care according to your instruction.

About: I just love critters! I love hanging out with your furry legged friends and would love to take care of yours if at all possible. I do work full time: however, I have my own transportation and can be somewhat flexible on my office hours. I’m used to working crazy hours all day! Can do drop ins as well as overnights, but will need to go into the office during the day. I make sure they’re happy and comfortable, following instructions to a T and spending as much time as possible with them to ensure they’re happy and healthy!

“Alex did a great job housesitting and I highly recommend them! One of my cats is usually pretty scared of strangers and immediately was interested in and felt comfortable with Alex. They have a lot of experience pet sitting and I felt very secure having them house sit for me while I was out of town for the weekend. They were great about sending photos while I was gone and keeping me updated. I will definitely book with them again in the future.”

“We had a last-minute trip and needed someone to stop by our house and let our three dogs out, and Lili was so sweet to accept our request on such short notice. She was responsible, caring, and made us feel completely at ease knowing our boys were in good hands. Our dogs can be a little challenging, Huck, our 14 yo Lab, is hard of hearing, and our other two are energetic doodles, ages 4 and 2. Lili was amazing with all of them! She kept us updated, sent pictures, and took such great care of them. She was absolutely wonderful, and I highly recommend her. We will definitely be using her again!”

Randi went above and beyond to make sure our animals were taken care of. She even voluntarily took home a chick that could not walk and fixed it's leg so it can get around on its own now. She also watered our plants and brought in mail while we were gone. She seems to know a lot about dogs and is a wealth of info on chickens, as well. Some of my chickens were not doing so well and thanks to her advice, they are looking healthier. I'd highly recommend her.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Ashcake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Ashcake is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $27 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.

As of October 2026, there are 1,243 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ashcake. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 , 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.
