“Jessica is so great!! My puppy is 8 months old and is going through a new fear period. Jessica was so great and worked with us and him until he got comfortable! I’m a nurse so my schedule is very inconsistent so Jessica being super flexible is awesome! She also saved us one day when my roommates flight got delayed and went over to let our pup out. She does puzzles and crafts with him! I would highly recommend!!”
“Alyssa is very reliable, on time, and took wonderful care of my cat, Oggy. I really appreciated the updates with photos and notes, it made me feel so much more relaxed while I was away. When I got home, my cat was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with her again.”
About: I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs. I even took care of my senior childhood dog. I now have two dachshunds of my own. I also did some cat and dog sitting in high school. I love to go on walks and am looking forward to meeting new pet friends! I am currently working at Target as many hours as I can. My schedule is inconsistent and changes week from week. However, I’m willing to work around my work schedule to book with pets! I can take dogs out as much as needed, feed them, take them on walks, and play with them! Every pet is different! I will tend to their needs.
“Ashley did an AMAZING job checking in on our Theo. She spent time with him, loved on him, and made sure he had everything he needed. We will definitely rebook her in the future!”
About: I started my care for dogs when I was 14. I often sit for friends and family when they need me. I am an animal lover who just loves spending time with new animals. I love getting to know all of their sweet personalities. I am currently a student with no more than 2 classes a day so lots a free time to spend with your pets. I would be free to let out your pets multiple times a day and even spend the night if you would like. I am very accommodating when it comes to all types of animals. We can discuss what your animals need in your house and find some type of system.
“Definitely the best!! Cares for my pup like it’s her own, very respectful and great communication. Meet and greet was amazing, she took notes and asked questions :) I have absolutely no regrets and we will definitely have her again in the future! :)”
“Liz was great!! My fur kids just loved her. She even took time to come over before the scheduled date to meet my kids and learn their routine. She was so good with them and sent the best pictures!!”
About: Hi! I'm Emily, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to five furry family members—two dogs and three cats. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including puppies, senior pets, multi-pet households, and pets with anxiety or medical needs. As both a pet sitter and pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I have experience administering medications, caring for pets with separation anxiety, and providing individualized attention based on each pet's unique needs and routine. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, while giving you peace of mind through reliable communication and updates. When I look into the eyes of an animal, I do not see an animal. I see a living being. I see a friend. I feel a soul. I work full-time as a preschool teacher during the week, but I am available for evening, weekend, holiday, and overnight pet care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for multiple pets of my own. I'm committed to providing dependable care and will work closely with you to maintain your pet's normal schedule and routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and household rules. I take time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and any special needs before care begins. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important communication is, so you'll receive regular updates and photos while you're away. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or stopping in for visits, I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience.
“Our cat loves Melissa!! We trusted her completely with our older cat and our home..and she never disappointed. We would be happy to be a reference for Melissa’s character as well as her reliability and care for looking after animals.”
About: I’m a proud pet mom to both a dog and a cat, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of each. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and lots of attention. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a routine, I make sure your pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I also offer weekend availability, perfect for those quick getaways! I am a student so I have plenty of time! Specially on weekends. I have my dog and my cat already and they would love to make new friends I just moved to a house and it’s just my husband and I with our cat and dog and they are super friendly with other animals and we all love cuddle time
“Gabrielle has been doing drop in visits for a while now; she does such a great job! She is reliable, flexible and she treats our dog like she is her own pet. Would highly recommend!”
About: I I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and temperaments. My responsibilities have included daily walks, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, and providing companionship. I understand how important routine and reassurance are when owners are away. I currently work from home. So my schedule is pretty flexible! Plenty of times to go on walks and playtime! With advanced notice I am very accommodating to meet your needs. I provide loving, reliable care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. My top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure and stress-free.
About: I’ve always had at least one animal since i was a child, I’ve worked as a kennel tech and I’ve been to vet school! I have a couple cats and a dog, they are my WORLD!! My dog had a bad life before I adopted him, and I completely trained him myself with very little help. He is a perfect, well behaved angel now! My schedule is pretty open! I am a stay at home wife and I’m in school, so I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I am thoroughly knowledgeable on all things dog safety related, my pooch has had a rough go at it so I’ve take courses on animal CPR, de-escalation training, and I am familiar with taking care of animals with health issues. Every pet is different and they all need varying levels of care and comfort requirements.
“Linda provided excellent care for my cat while I was away and was very good about sending photos and videos. I will definitely hire Linda again to check in on my cat.”
About: I have loved animals since I came out of the womb. I have 2 cats myself and I absolutely love dogs. I have taken care of animals since I was 10. I also have volunteered at the humane society. I would absolutely love to meet your fur babies and the owners of course. I do online school, so I am very flexible when it comes to watching over your pets. I can wake up early and stay late. Whatever you need. I would love to keep your fur baby company, take them on walks (short or long), play with them, and obviously learn all about their little quirks.

Therese was so sweet and helped me out in a short notice pinch when my normal sitter and backups weren’t available. She did a great job taking care of my cat, who needs meds at a certain time of day, was very responsive, and kept me in the loop at all times. Would definitely recommend!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 666 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ashland. 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 Ashland. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
