“10/10 recommend. Jen was phenomenal and little Junipurr took to her immediately (and that’s saying quite a bit). Jen was respectful of our space, communication was spot on. Best of all I felt ? comfortable knowing Junipurr was in Jens care. If you’re looking for a wonderful human to care for your fur family while you’re away- look no further!”
“Sam did such a great job with the kitties!!! She went above and beyond to make sure my cats had everything they needed while I was away. Definitely very happy with her visit and felt very at ease that my cats were well taken care of!😊”
“Shannon was great! She did a meet and greet prior to the sitting so she could meet Bella and I could go over instructions. Shannon provided updates for both of the days she dropped in on Bella and Bella seemed happy and well taken care of when I returned home!”
“This was the second time I’ve had Eliza take care of my kitties; she is the absolute best! Very thorough, communicative, and she makes sure to take a lot of pictures at each drop in. One of my cats got trapped in the bathroom on the first day of my trip and went wild; Eliza cleaned everything up and was so gracious about it! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a conscientious and thoughtful sitter. Thank you, Eliza!”
“Mersadi was a joy to work with and took wonderful care of my 2 cats while I was away! Mersadi was very easy to communicate with, and sent me drop in notes and pictures every day. The peace of mind knowing my boys were taken care of while I was out of town is priceless!”
“My roommate and I are very happy with Kathy’s work. I was out of town, so she coordinated with my roommate and helped to clip nails for my 3 cats! We are both very grateful and I will definitely work with Kathy again.”
“Ben is great! Punctual, reliable and responds quickly to messages. Our kitties love hanging out with him when we’re away. One of our babies needs daily medication and he’s handled it all! We’re very happy and grateful and will use him again!”
“David did an excellent job caring for my senior cat! He dropped by twice a day for a week to feed my kitty, scoop litter, and give him some playtime and affection. My cat occasionally throws up a hairball, and this unfortunately happened on my couch the first night I was away. David cleaned up the mess as best he could, which made it a lot easier to get my couch slipcovers clean when I got home. He also took out my trash to the basement when it was getting full and brought in my mail. David was very communicative, sending photos and a little update with each check-in. David’s reliable and compassionate care for my cat gave me peace of mind, allowing me to enjoy my vacation! I would highly recommend David as a cat sitter!”
“James was lovely! He was attentive, reliable, and made sure to send daily updates and photos while we were away. We will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”
“minori was great. she was able to help us out on short notice and went above and beyond on her visits. her updates were great and informative as well...our kitties were obviously well taken care of when we came home and we will definitely be calling on her again if she's available.”
“Claire was wonderful with Georgie! She took the time to meet us beforehand, and she and Georgie hit it off right awa, you could tell Claire genuinely loves getting to know the dogs she cares for. As a puppy, Georgie needs midday potty breaks and some playtime when I can't get home from the office, and Claire gave her a great visit. I felt completely comfortable knowing Georgie was in good hands. Highly recommend Claire for anyone needing reliable, caring midday check-ins. I will be using her in the future!”
“Ariel is a consistent and reliable pet sitter who responds quickly to messages! I'm so very glad that she is taking care of Maggie for me while I'm away.....I know that Maggie is being well-cared for!”
“Benjamin is wonderful! Great communication and reliable. One of my cats is verrrrry shy and made himself known to Benjamin much sooner than he typically does, so I know they are very comfortable with him. I know my cats are in great hands when I am away!”
“I couldn’t be happier with Natasha and how well she cared for our cats and sugar glider. She is very attentive, meticulous and our cats love her calming energy. So thankful to have found someone so kind and responsible that we can trust while we are away. Will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Elizabeth took great care of our cats while we were away. While they’re too shy for socializing, she ensured that their food, water, and litter boxes were maintained. We would recommend Elizabeth and schedule with her again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Asheville
Alex made us feel secure that our cats were well taken care of: well fed and litter box kept clean. He made sure we got many pix and updates each day and our cats were attended to and kept happy while we attended some family events in Europe for over two weeks. We know we can count on him in the future and he is incredibly warm and intuitive with animals. We look forward to future travels knowing our pets will be cared for when we do. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Alex.
Jeanene was absolutely fantastic! I feel like I hit the jackpot cuz she was able to accommodate my cat on such short notice. She was super responsive and a great communicator. It was a huge relief knowing Puff was well cared for while I was away. The peace of mind Jeanene provided was worth it and more. Thank you!!
Shannon took great care of my animals while I was away! Her communication was solid, visits were promt and she kept me updated on how things were going. She made sure all of their daily needs were met, and my pets were happy when I got back. She is reliable and dependable, and I appreciate the care she provided. I would definitely recommend her to other pet parents!
Jen has been an exceptional pet sitter for our cat on several occasions. Her consistent ability to show up and provide comfort and daily task to Miss Pipi Ann has brought peace of mind to our family during a difficult time. Jen has taken ownership of the duties and shown total respect for our home. She bonded quickly with our senior feline and reported daily on her well being. We will absolutely continue to have Jen in our home and seek her out when care is needed for our most precious fur baby.
Jessie is the ultimate professional: a skilled trainer, compassionate, prepared and protective, kind and considerate, and always willing to go above and beyond to meet the needs of our animals, home, plants, and us humans. Jessie has cared for our pets and house on several occasions now, the most recent being for 3 weeks while we were out of the country. We could rest completely assured that Jessie was on top of whatever happened while we were away (the water being turned off to the house, severe storms!) and that our pets were in the best hands possible. We cannot recommend Jessie highly enough!
Carolyn was the perfect sitter for our three cats -- she came on time every day that was scheduled and left us updates, and multiple pictures and videos! It was something we looked forward to every few days during our honeymoon! Carolyn was also very responsive and communicative.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Asheville on Rover is $22.2 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 582 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Asheville. 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 Asheville. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
