“I had never used a sitter for my babies and was hesitant to use a service or someone I didn't know. I found the Rover website and Karen's profile and decided to take a chance. And I'm glad I did. Karen was excellent with my dogs! I loved the communication and pictures that she sent with each visit. It means so much to know you can be away and not worry about them. I knew they were in good hands and will not hesitate to use Karen again the next time we need someone. I would highly recommend her!!”
“This was our first time leaving our bunnies home alone and Bri was great- followed care instructions perfectly and took lots of pictures so that we were comfortable that our buns were happy and eating well.”
“Heath did an amazing job watching our pups! I have 3 dogs and one is a senior dog with mobility issues. All the dogs were happy and well taken care of. Heath was also very communicative, and punctual with all the drop in times. We will absolutely book him again for future persisting needs!”
“Diana did a great job with my puppy! I’m so thankful to have found her when I did to care for my puppy while I was on a work trip. Highly recommend booking if you’re looking for a sitter that’s responsive and communicative!”
“Our dog Fitz has a fair amount of anxiety, and our recent move to a new house made him even more nervous. We were worried about leaving him to travel, but Maryann really helped with those worries! She really wanted to get to know Fitz and his situation before we left, and worked really patiently to get him more comfortable. By the time we came back, Maryann had really brought him out of his shell! She truly cares for the dogs she watches, and we would highly recommend her to anyone who wants their pets to be loved and cared for when they travel. We've already booked her to take care of our dog again!”
“Renee saved us when our planned pet sitter had a last minute emergency and could no longer come to our home to let out & feed our senior dog. Renee had no issue with such a last minute appointment and was absolutely wonderful. She asked great questions, kept us updated with her visit and took amazing care of our senior who has mobility issues.”
“It is so, so great to have a sitter that is not afraid of my zoo! As the owner of two cats, ten geckos, and ten snakes, all with different personalities ranging from shy to outright grumpy, I am very comforted by Rich's confidence in caring for them. I am a total momma bear when it comes to ALL of my critters (even the bitey ones), and I don't even worry while I'm away on vacation.”
About: Hi, I'm Ella! I'm a lifelong animal lover based in Rhode Island, and I genuinely believe pets are family. My background is in public service and childcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, communication, patience, and creating a safe environment for the people (and pets!) who depend on me. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless games of fetch, snuggling on the couch, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I'm happy to adjust to their individual personality and needs. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I make communication a priority. I'll always provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. I have experience caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels, and I'm comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and household rules. When your pet is with me, they'll receive lots of attention, plenty of affection, and the same level of care I'd want for my own pet. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work full-time for the State of Rhode Island and work remotely on Mondays and Fridays. I'm also currently pursuing my Master's degree online through the University of Rhode Island, which gives me additional flexibility throughout the week. I'm happy to work with your pet's routine and schedule to make sure they receive the care and attention they need. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a long walk, or extra playtime, I'm committed to providing dependable and personalized care. I take the safety and comfort of both pets and their homes very seriously. Since I will be caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to be respectful of the space, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and keep everything clean, secure, and well cared for. I also have experience working as a Property Manager for Universal Services LLC, which has given me experience with maintaining properties, keeping spaces safe and clean, and being trusted with other people’s homes and belongings. I understand the importance of being responsible, reliable, and respectful when someone is trusting you with their home. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while also giving you peace of mind that your home is in good hands while you’re away.
About: Hii! I volunteered at shelters but I preferred building a relationship with pets in Rhode Island :) I grew up around many dogs and cats. A fun challenge was when we adopted our German Shepherd puppy! Training him was a fun challenge, but it was harder (yet more rewarding) when we adopted his brother as well! Now they’re grown and trained but I can still see the little puppy they are in their eyes! I also have a senior dog that needs extra care, but I love making sure she’s comfy and gets her massages. I work a hybrid 9-5, so I can make time mornings and evenings for pet care. On my work from home days I am more flexible to do care during the day. Weekends are fully available! In your home I would make sure pets are in their designated areas and can’t escape! Cleanliness is the largest thing I would keep in mind while making sure your pet is comfortable!
“Jonathan was a lifesaver when prior a pet sitter canceled last minute, and in a way I’m happy it turned out that way! You can tell from the minute you meet him he genuinely cares for your animals like they are his own and makes every effort to show it. He even crocheted a blanket for our kitty! My husband and I never had to worry a day while we were on our vacation because we knew our cats were in great hands. We cannot begin to thank you enough!”
About: I've had animals my whole life! I currently take care of my own 2 senior kitties and know they need special attention. I also had two dogs (puggles) from the same litter for 10 years before sadly losing one to cancer. This experience helped me learn how to care for sibling pets and a pet that is grieving the loss of another. Additionally, in high school, I took many companion animal classes and learned from industry experts how to care for pets. My neighbor was a dog groomer and showed dogs professionally, and I accompanied her at times to help with the dogs. IMPORTANT SCHEDULING NOTE: I am typically available between 5-11pm Monday to Friday, or anytime Saturday and Sunday. I am typically available anytime Saturday and Sunday. Monday-Friday I am available between 5-11pm. I am a very routine person and am known for getting to places early/ on time. No special request is too "weird" to me! I can ensure your pets have free roam of the place or are secured in a crate! I can take dogs outside in a fenced yard or on a leash if there is no fence. I also fully understand pets can be messy and never mind if I have to clean up any accidents (my experience with senior pets and a dog with bladder cancer taught me that).
“Jamie did a drop-in for our pup and we couldn't be happier. She took great care of him, re-filled his water bowl, sent great pictures, picked up his #2s, and even let us know about a wayward tennis ball that ended up in our neighbors yard during a game of fetch! We'd definitely have her come again for additional visits in the future.”
“Maya is great! My dogs loved her! She was very attentive with my 14-year old dog and went above and beyond to take care of her! My other 2 dogs adored her, too. I would definitely book her again.”
“Carse was great with my two boys, even getting my shy guy out and rolling around on his back for belly rubs by the second visit. She was great and I’ll definitly re-book with her.”
“Ashley was so kind to my cat while I was away. She was patient and loving with little feisty Inzo and she showered her with love and treats. Ashley followed house rules and left detailed notes of the visit and sent pictures. I would definitely recommend Ashley to take care of your fur babies! Thank you Ashley! :)”
“Natasha is great! She fed my pup who has several medications with his dinner and walked him after for a drop in visit. She even kindly washed his dish. Sounds like he gets excited to see her and I trust she will always come on time and take good care for my boy.”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Auburn is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Auburn
Ashley was more than accommodating when we had to alter our trip last minute. She provided a mix of informative and fun information with her check ins. She was also comfortable and great with giving two of our cats medication. Our house was clean and our 5 cats were well taken care of while we were gone for 5 days. We were very happy with how sweet, organized, and loving she was with our kitties. We would definitely work with her again!
As always, Christa was fabulous with our cats! We contacted her with short notice and luckily for us-she had space in her schedule. Christa always sends pictures that include all of the cats. They had plenty of fresh water and food while we were away And all their litter boxes were in great shape!! She is the best!
We had a wonderful experience! Emily was able to help us on very short notice, which was a huge relief. She took excellent care of our two cats, making sure they were well fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.
Jessica is a PHENOMENAL pet sitter and has taken such good care of my kitty girls more than once! She goes above and beyond to make sure that they're taken care of and even went out of her way to get my picky shy kitty her favorite treats 🥺 I would recommend her so so highly to anyone looking for someone they can trust to watch their fur babies 💓
Rebecca took excellent care of my slightly anxious and socially awkward rescue cat named Garage while I was away. I was a little worried leaving her for 3 days because of her behavioral issues, but found that she was in great hands with Rebecca. We will definitely be requesting her again!
Nicole took excellent care of our cat Moe while we were away. She clearly understands his personality and needs, and they picked right up where they left off from her previous caretaking visit. We received daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind. Most importantly, Moe was happy and completely himself when we returned. I highly recommend Nicole - she did a fantastic job!
JONATHAN IS THE GREATEST. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him for all your pet care needs. I had to leave town to deal with a very difficult situation and Jonathan did an amazing job ensuring that I had nothing to worry about back home with my cat while I was away. If Rover has an MVP, it’s Jonathan L.
Mia is a perfect choice for your cat sitting needs. She’s responsive, responsible, and very compassionate. You can tell she really cares about animals and goes the extra mile to provide you and your pet with the best care. We received detailed updates during the visits and when we came home our cat Whittington seemed comfortable and relaxed after being taken care of so well. We would definitely utilize Mia for services again, she’s super sweet and kind.

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.

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.
