About: I’ve taken care of dogs for well over 4 years and have had the pleasure of watching some of the sweetest pups. I’ve dealt with dogs on a schedule, some who require medication and those who just need some extra snuggles. I will take the time to learn the care your pet deserves. I work a full time job during the weeks but will ensure all pets are taken out before I leave and return as soon as possible to allow them to be taken out again, I spend my afternoons with the dogs and try to provide enrichment play so they don’t get bored. I’m available all day on weekends so the same things goes. I normally stay with at a clients home to ensure dogs have minimal stress dealing with new environments. I follow any schedule my client has given me, from early morning walks at a dog park or allowing them to roam their fenced in yard while I prepare any food or water that is left while I’m away. I enjoy playing with them in the afternoons and getting them tired and rewarding them with treats when necessary.

Jorie was amazing!! She came over prior to sitting so that she could meet my dogs. She was always timely and treated my dogs so well!! They are German shepherds and she seemed so comfortable with them even though they are gigantic and high energy. Will definitely be using Jorie’s services again in the future!

Amber was once again amazing with my kitties. I came back to happy healthy well-fed kitties, and she made sure to keep me updated with pics and little blurbs about how the visits went. She also went above and beyond as always. 10/10 would book again.

About: I first began caring for animals when I lived with my sister & helped care for her toy poodle, taking it on walks or administering a pill when it had a seizure. She later had 3 dogs & 5 cats at one time to care for! Since then, for other people, I have taken care of as many as 5 dogs (Cavalier King Charles Spaniels), 4 birds & 1 cat at a time! I have had 2 cats of my own a total of 7 years. I have walked dogs & cats (even taking them in a stroller together!), given topical flea meds, oral meds, trimmed nails, given baths, combed & brushed them. I love giving them lots of cuddles & pets (even taking naps with them!), insuring they have clean bowls daily, fresh water / food 2x daily, & whatever amount of treats the owner thinks is good. ;-) I make sure dogs get an adequate number of potty breaks daily to avoid mishaps & to ensure s/he is not uncomfortable from a full bladder. I scoop cat boxes 1x/daily (if non-clumping litter is used) or 2x/daily (if clumping litter is used) & completely clean out the box & change litter 1x/week. When walking dogs, I make sure the harness / collar & leash are secure & I carry waste bags, vinegar spray to discourage other dogs from attacking us (happens more often than you'd think!) &, of course, my cell phone if something serious were to happen, I could phone someone quickly. In a nutshell, I want to be sure that the animals in my care are happy, healthy & safe!! :-) I am currently retired and so my schedule is completely open. I am open to a recurring booking, such as every day or every week. I make sure food is fresh (within the last couple days) & not "crusty" (use a lid) & has no bugs in it. Water should also be clear & have nothing "foreign" in it. At the client's home, I make sure backyard gates are shut before taking dogs out for a potty break. If client permits, I also take that time to "scoop" the yard of previous "droppings" to provide a cleaner place for the dogs & their owners. :-) If taking dogs for a walk, I make sure I have safety gear & my cell phone handy & that their leash/collar/harness is secure. I watch to make sure they don't eat something they're not supposed to. If taking a cat(s) for a walk in a stroller, I make sure it's securely fastened & that the cat(s) would not be able to get out of the stroller. I try to make sure dogs / cats in my care don't play rough with each other or get into a fight. I make sure cats don't climb into places which are unsafe or which would knock over fragile items.

Couldn’t have asked for better! She was reliable, communicated great, and was very thoughtful and thorough. She handled everything we asked of, and more. She truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful for the peace of mind she brought us while we were on vacation and worried about our cats :)

Miranda was excellent!! Went above and beyond even cleaning up the back yard waste when she didn't have to. Dogs were in great care and took very well to Miranda's visits . Definitely will be using again! She even took care of the cats and made sure they were ok while there even though her booking was just for the 3 pups. Highly recommend this sitter as she takes photos messages you updates and checks in everyday while she's in your home and notifysnyou of any matters that need addressed right away.

Tori made sure our dog got plenty of attention and playtime even with the rain, which really showed how much she cared about making sure he was happy and well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We truly appreciated her reliability, kindness, and the extra effort she put in. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family!

About: As a dog owner, I know how challenging it can be to find reliable, quality, trustworthy care, and I promise to be just that! I've had and loved dogs my entire life. In our house, our pups are like family and yours will be welcomed with open arms. In addition to my two, I also foster for The KY Humane Society which has given me plenty of experience with puppies, senior dogs, giving meds and tending to your pups every need. Your dog will be cared for like one of our own! I work from home so your pup will very rarely be alone. If your dog has separation anxiety, then I am the perfect sitter for you! Our current feeding schedule is 8:00 and 6, so please let me know if your pup needs a different schedule. Unfortunately, I am not able to accommodate free feeding, so your pup will be on a feeding schedule while they are in my care. I require meet and greets for any new clients. I want to meet you and your pup(s) and I want you to meet mine. Even if you have the friendliest dog, not all dogs will vibe, so this step is important. **Meet and greets can be waived for dogs under 6 months but am happy to have one if that is your preference. We have a large, fenced in back yard as well as live in a safe, quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood. In our house, there is no furniture off limits. Your pups will be welcome to sleep on the bed, on the couch, or on the floor. If you prefer your dog crated at night, we can do that too! My house is set up to host dogs in the safest way possible. This includes multiple safety gates for feeding times or some alone time for your pup to chew on bones or toys. I will accompany your dog(s) on any potty breaks outside that include my dogs. My dogs are also crated when I leave to ensure everyone's safety. Both of my girls are vaccinated to boarding standards and I would prefer yours be too! This helps to keep all our pups safe! **I am happy to provide their vaccination records upon request. If you have additional concerns, please let me know and we can discuss.

About: I’ve spent the last 15 years caring for my own dog, Oscar, who is nearly 15 years old, as well as helping friends, family, and neighbors care for their pets, including cats. Oscar is in his senior dog era, so I am knowledgeable and empathetic to what senior dogs may need. As a teacher, I am dependable, patient, and attentive to detail. My schedule also allows me to be especially flexible during the summer to meet you and your pet’s needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing on the couch, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours as if they were my own. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule during the summer and am available throughout the day to provide attentive care for your pets. During the school year, I am available after work, on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I understand the importance of consistency and will work with you to maintain your pet’s routine as closely as possible. I will treat both your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. You can count on regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My camera roll is probably 90% pictures of my dog, Oscar, so it’s safe to say I love sharing updates and photos while you’re away!

Jessica jumped in and saved us (during a holiday!) when our sitter unexpectedly had to leave town, while we were already away. She took great care of our SIX babies at a moment's notice and we couldn't be more thankful. Would definitely recommend!

Caisey was both professional and friendly! She really took the time to get to know my cat and made sure to accommodate care to her level of comfort. She was reliable, communicative, and overall a really great pet sitter! It was our first time leaving our fur baby for longer than a couple of days - Caisey was very understanding and sent TONS of photos throughout the care experience. Definitely recommend her to anyone needing an invested pet sitter!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Ashville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 586 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ashville. 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 Ashville. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
