“Ally was very responsive from the moment we posted the job and gave us updates on our cats during our trip. Our cats took an immediate liking to her and were well loved while we were gone. Would definitely use Ally’s services again!”

“Angel was such a patient, kind, and caring sitter! We just recently moved to the area and our cat is still getting used to our new apartment. Even though she has been a bit shy, Angel spent time just sitting near her and making sure she felt safe and was cared for while we were away. He sent us frequent updates so we weren't worried and was a great communicator. We will definitely book with Angel again in the future!”

About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my whole life. I started pet-sitting in high school, ranging from brief visits with cool cats to house-sitting with feisty fidos. I’m a fan of any and all animals! My schedule is very open most days. I currently have commitments 7-9pm on Tuesdays, and 8am-12pm Wednesdays and Fridays. I’m open to working early mornings ☀️ I keep treats on me to reward positive behavior. I’m not usually especially stern with animals, but can be if given the instruction. I make sure to keep houses clean and tidy.

About: I have helped look after other peoples pets since I was younger. I have a genuine love for all animals and enjoy looking after them. I am currently a student and coach. I would love to fit pet care into my morning or weekend routine and possible overnights as well. I live in a small apartment and would not be able to bring them to my place, but I do have a care and am a reliable person to come to your home and love your pet.

“Carolyn took such good care of our two kittens. Carolyn checked in at the time she agreed to - and she communicated great detail about each visit. She assured us that the kittens were doing well, and that our house was tidy. Her work and her attention to our kittens was really appreciated. We could not have asked for more.”

About: I’ve grown up taking care of numerous types of animals, primarily cats and dogs. My neighbors, family and friends rely on me for their pet care needs because I treat them as my own, giving them love and attention in addition to their regular feedings and potty needs. I am available on the weekends! On Friday’s, my availability would start after 5pm. I am available all day on Saturdays. Sunday’s I do take care of horses during the day from 9am-3pm; however, I am available before and after for walks and potty breaks. I make your pet’s needs my main priority. If they should make any messes while you are away, I always do my best to clean it up as though it never happened, so that you can come home to a happy fur baby and find your home just the way you left it.

LeTisha was absolutely amazing with our cat, Miski! From the moment we left, we had complete peace of mind knowing Miski was in such caring and trustworthy hands. LeTisha kept us updated, gave Miski so much love and attention, and treated her like family. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and that made all the difference. We came home to a happy, relaxed kitty, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend LeTisha to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and exceptional pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Elena was fantastic caring for my hybrid savannah cat while I was away. I recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional pet lover. Elena communicates effectively too, which isn’t a common characteristic. I was very comfortable having her visit my cat at our home. And I could tell my cat really enjoyed her company.

I needed a last-minute drop-in visit for my rabbits while I was out of town, and she was able to help on very short notice. She communicated well, checked on my pets promptly, and made sure they had what they needed. I really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to help when I was feeling worried. I would definitely book with her again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Aurora

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Aurora is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $24 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 755 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Aurora. 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 Aurora. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
