“My wife and I had separate last minute week long trips. Kelly was gracious enough to watch over our cats while we were gone. She was able to stop by beforehand to get an idea of how our cats operate and what their schedules are. She constantly kept us updated with how they were doing and the work she did while at the house. Very much recommend if you’re looking for an awesome Rover!”

About: Since a young age, I had always been the go to person for my friends, family, and often times neighbors as well for pet-sitting. From care-taking for a friends tortoise for over 8 years, to having a rabbit, birds, dogs, and more myself, leads me to have such a deep rooted passion and interest for care-taking, spending time, and bonding with all ranges of sizes and ages of pets! As of right now, I am dedicated to being available as often and frequent as possible for pet-sitting, walking, and/or care taking. My current schedule outside of these things are very flexible for now, so if ever needed, please send a direct message and we can work things out! I have a lot of previous experience in caring for all kinds of animals with a ranging variety of needs, whether a senior animal who needs more attention, carefulness, and patience; or a small puppy who is exploding with energy and needs to direct it elsewhere! Any notes, tips, and personal preferences are always appreciated as well when it comes to your pet and how they need to be cared for. (:

About: Hi! I’m Lindsey, a lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like family. I share my home with two friendly, well-socialized dogs and two cats, so I am very comfortable managing multi-pet dynamics and slow introductions. Over the years, I have cared for family pets of all sizes. I even have hands-on experience caring for backyard chickens! Whether your pet needs high-energy walks or quiet company on the couch, I tailor my care to match their exact needs. Because I am available most days and have pretty flexible hours, your pet will get plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, and regular photo updates so you have complete peace of mind while you're away. I am currently in school with my classes being online. I am flexible to work around my daily school schedule and should also be available on short notice some of the time. I will only be available to care for your pet in your home. I would be able to dog walk anywhere near your home as well if that is something that is requested.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up around German Shepherds, Dobermans, and a variety of cats, so caring for animals has been a lifelong passion. Today, I have three dogs of my own: an Italian Mastiff, a Husky, and a Hound Dog! Living with such different breeds has given me experience with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, and I’m happy to care for other types of pets with the right instructions to ensure they receive the proper attention and care they deserve. I offer dog walking and in-home pet check-ins, so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings while you’re away. I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m reliable, attentive, and detail-oriented. I take the time to follow instructions carefully, pay attention to the little things, and make sure each pet’s individual needs are met. Whether your pet needs a walk, some company, fresh food and water, or a little extra attention, I’m happy to help! Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them with the same patience, care, and respect I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! ❤️🐶🐱 I am currently available during the week and on weekends depending on how far in advance you book. I can tend to your pets morning and night. I will care for your pet in the comfort of your own home. This way they can be comfortable and cozy in their own home.

About: My experience started when i was about 14. I started watching family dogs and cats for money and it slowly became a passion. I work now at a dog resort which has daycare, boarding, bathing, and is now adding training. There I do bathing services, doggy daycare, feeding, administering medication. And that includes Cats as well. My aunt fosters cats/kittens and I have raised 2 dogs starting at month 3 as my grandpa adopted puppies. I helped and have experience with both little puppies and kittens. I love animals so much. I am super happy with this passion and hope to experience and learn more in the future. And am excited to work with you! I work currently at a Resort facility who works with both cats and dogs. And our goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your pets. I work day to day in that facility walking, feeding, medicating, and so much more. I have learned so much about animal behavior and have a pet of my own at home who I take care of day to day. So i work with pets daily. It will depend on what service you are looking for. I can do a basic bath for your pet in your home. (No nail trimming, and you would provide the bath and products you would like used.) For Boarding, either coming to me or me coming to you I can provide playtimes, long/short walks, administration of medication, litter-box cleaning, and more. For walks I can do walks in the neighborhood or take your dog to a dog park! And so much more! I am open to suggestions and ideas of what I can add/offer!

“Kathryn was absolutely amazing for our little grumbly girl, Kora. We were going to book with Kathryn back when our cat Dannica was still with us. I was always so anxious to leave her especially when she started having her health problems. Kathryn is the only new person that was not only able to see Dannica, but she was able to pet her. There was no other choice once I saw that. Kathryn is communicative, friendly, and thorough when it comes to caring for animals. Kora loved her, and I absolutely recommend booking with her.”

“This is our third time having Jessica over. She is very conscientious, responsive, prompt and responsible. She works hard to befriend our kitties even though they are not cooperative, and we appreciate that a lot! We feel very safe giving her access to our pets and our home! She is a blessing and we’re very thankful!”

About: I have a lifetime of experience with animals starting from my first day as an infant. I grew up with multiple cats in the home with learned, gentle-respect and patience that cats require. I also grew up with a shetland sheepdog, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish. As an adult I have significant experience with caring for dogs and cats alike both in my home and in other homes. My own animals, two dogs, a cat, and a 70 gallon fish tank, remind me daily of the joys and importance of animals. I have an anxious 74 pound hound and a nervous 30 pound beagle of my own, so I understand the needs of special breeds and animals coming from previously difficult situations. I have the patience needed to address nervous dogs and have experience with clicker training and am educated in techniques for dog training. I do not breed discriminate. I have fostered kittens and adult cats and have experience with syringe feeding and medicine administration. I also have my own rascally kitten, Hazel, who keeps me entertained. In my experience with fish and aquariums I can clean, feed, and help with tank design or water cycling conditions. Note: I am selective about in home care due to a cat being in the home - this is for the safety of my own animals. Thanks. Your pets will be the utmost priority and I can adjust my schedule to meet your needs. I can assure timely feedings, walks, and potty breaks so your pet is comfortable and you are assured! I will treat them as my own. Our daily routine is FULL of pet fun and enjoyment. First thing in the morning is a walk and potty breaks, followed by feeding, the rest of the day would follow similarly with 4/5 mini walks and dinner at ideal time. Potty before bed time and no pet will be left alone for more than 3 hours and if preferred never at all.

About: I grew up around animals big and small, from horses and llamas, to cats and dogs, to hampsters and reptiles, I love them all, except spiders, please no spiders! I am an avid outdoors person, I love going for runs and hikes. I'd be more than happy to take your dog with me! Its great exercise and helps to poop them out! I do own my own German Shepherd, she is one and full of love. She loves making new friends, so if your dog wants to make friends too I'd love to get them playing! Otherwise I like to keep as close to your pets schedule and routine as possible. I am more than happy to stay at the house or do drop ins, whichever works best for you! I currently work full-time in Centreville, VA, with 4 longer workdays typically a combination Monday-Friday 7am-6pm, plus commute time. If your pet cannot comfortably go ~10 hours without a bathroom break on these days, please consider this when booking. However, on my days off, my schedule is much more flexible, and your pets will be my top priority. I ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care to keep them happy and comfortable. I provide attentive and compassionate care for every pet entrusted to me. When outdoors, pets remain on a leash at all times unless otherwise agreed upon with the owner. Inside the home, I closely monitor their behavior, ensuring they are comfortable and safe. If I notice any unusual behavior, I promptly check in with the owner to keep them informed. Before each booking, I conduct a detailed discussion with pet parents to understand their pet’s typical behaviors, routines, and any special needs, ensuring personalized care tailored to their well-being.

About: I am 33 years old, happily married, a licensed paramedic, and have been pet and house sitting since I was 12 years old. Growing up I worked at my family's business for over a decade, a Daycare for Dogs, and have vast experience with all shapes and sizes.

In my personal life I also own take care of Cats and would love to meet and take care of all your furry family. I believe that pet sitting does not just stop with your pets, but the job continues to the house. Whether you need your mail picked up, your packages brought in or your plants watered, I consider that I’ll part of the job. "Everyone thinks that they have the best pet and none of them are wrong" "Be the person your dog thinks you are." "All you need is love from a cat" I'm newly located in Manassas and have enough schedule flexibility that I can provide morning or evening pet care. We can discuss any specific scheduling needs you may have. I'm unfortunately living in an apartment and not able to care for your pets in my own home. I'm a licensed paramedic and have a 100% clean background - I'll always leave a client's home exactly as they left it.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have had experience with animals since I was growing up. I had a dog, a rabbit, and birds, and I currently have a cat that I love and care for. My aunt and uncle also have a small farm with lots of roosters, so I often help them take care of the animals, raise them, and spend time playing with them. Caring for animals is more than just a responsibility to me; it is something I genuinely enjoy and have a passion for. I’m always willing to make time in my day to give animals the love, attention, and care they need. I always make an animal’s safety and well-being my top priority. I stay attentive to their needs and surroundings at all times, creating a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment.

“I had such a great experience with Zoe! She watched my cat for a few hours and made sure I felt completely at ease. When I asked for an update, she responded quickly, let me know he was doing well, and even sent pictures—which I loved! When I picked him up, she filled me in on how he’d been and I could tell he was comfortable and happy in her care. I really appreciate her communication and the calm, welcoming environment she provided. Highly recommended!! :)”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for animals and over a decade of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. While I don’t have formal training, I’m highly dependable, quick to adapt to each pet’s unique needs and personality, and treat every animal as if they were my own. My focus is always on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule to care for pets as a recent college graduate seeking employment. You tell me when you need me and I’ll be there! Taking care of someone’s pet in their home is actually taking care of a pet in their home. It is my priority to know your pets schedule, likes, and dislikes to ensure it’s comfortability while your gone. (Some extra treats too!)

About: I have had animals all my life, and quite the variety!!! I am experienced in caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, reptiles, spiders, ferrets, etc! I have some horse experience as well, although I'm a little rusty, however, if you gave me a list I'd be sure to figure it out! I'm not afraid to ask questions, and I'm always making sure your furry friend(s) are handled with only the best care! I am very patient and observant, and I always try to stay calm in stressful situations. Currently I have open availability! I am spending my days with my babies and I am happy to take on some new furry friends to help out with! No worries if it's last minute, feel free to contact me and maybe we can work something out! I live in a nice neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks to walk on! I plan on taking your pup on plenty of walks outside, or maybe even to a near by dog park if permitted!!! When going outside for walks or to a park, I am always very aware of my surroundings. I always will make sure there is a limitless amount of water offered as well.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Auburn

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Auburn is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 November 2026, there are 825 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Auburn. 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% 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 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.
