“Summer was amazing! Did everything we asked of her, and even played with our active pup. She even brought in one of my packages. I was very appreciative of her help, and would definitely book with her again!”
“Dawn was available super last minute due to a family emergency and I am so grateful that she was able to watch my kitties. Each time she takes care of them they are more and more comfortable with her. Thanks so much ☀️🩷”
About: I am an animal lover who has had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently, I have 1 large pup and a cat and I enjoy those floofs with all my heart. I am a very active person and I work from home, so your loved one would not be left unattended for very long, if at all during their stay. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of time in my schedule to love on your fur babies. I enjoy all animals, even fish and birds! I have a large single family home with a fenced yard and regular host doggy play dates with my Belgian Malinois, Hugo. I also have a large park nearby that is walkable.
“Jennifer is always great with my dog Harper! She is always there and on time when we need her to be. She is also super nice and watches her last minute if I need her to. She follows directions and always goes above and beyond. Harper is always super tired after I get back home. I definitely recommend Jennifer! Thanks for all you do I really appreciate it!”
“Jennifer was really great - she sat for our dog and three cats while we were out of town and was very consistent for the drop-in visits, and communicated regularly. No issues, much appreciation. 😊”
“Rilen was awesome. We were out of country and one of my dogs is older and I was so worried. I loved her reports and details along with pictures. Assured me all was good. My dogs clearly loved having her come by. Highly recommend her!”
“Lisa is absolutely wonderful!! She really cared for and spent time with them. She is an excellent communicator and sent great updates and pictures. Our trip was so much more enjoyable knowing she was taking such great care of our babies!! I will use Lisa for future events!!”
“Alyssa is an amazing sitter, that took the absolute best care of my dog while I was away for 10 days. She spent quality time with him, was always very punctual, and sent awesome photos of my dog to me while I was away. 10/10 rating and Alyssa has my highest recommendation as a Rover sitter!”
About: I am certified in low stress handling and a UL Veterinary Technician. I can bathe, express anal glands, nail trims, ear cleaning, give medications/fluids, and more! I have experience in livestock, equine, and poultry care. I am also a Military Police Officer and have worked with aggressive K9s. If you have a highly active dog, Iv got you! My schedule is very flexible. If you need extra accommodations, we can work things out! I am an online student, looking for something to fill my time. I am generally always at home/free, unless I am already booked or traveling. I’m willing to work with whatever schedule you need! I have a fenced in back yard with a dog door. I have 2 empty rooms free to put a crate in. I have one friendly large dog that is fully vaccinated. She grew up on farms, Veterinary Hospitals (where I worked), and is great/gentle with all! If you prefer your animal to be alone, I have 2 rooms available for their privacy. I have a security system as well to provide home safety.
“Matt is the absolute kindest and most patient sitter for both of our dogs, but mainly for our elderly, large lab. He goes the extra mile, every time, and allows us to travel without worrying about how our dogs will be cared for. We trust him, we like him as a person, and we highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who need training reinforcement to senior pets who require patience and gentle handling. As a veteran, I bring reliability, attention to detail, and calm leadership that animals naturally respond to. I’m comfortable administering basic medications, supporting senior dogs with mobility challenges, and keeping up with energetic pups who need exercise and structure. What sets me apart is consistency—you can count on me to be on time, communicate clearly, and treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my days so I’m available for morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care. I'm home constantly, which allows me to focus on the needs of each pet. Whether it’s regular daily walks, weekend sitting, or last-minute bookings, I ensure pets receive consistent attention and care when their families are unable to be there. Safety and trust come first in every home I step into. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to walk routes, and I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and leashes to ensure pets stay safe. I provide plenty of positive attention, consistent communication with updates and photos, and a calm presence that helps pets feel secure. My goal is to give every family peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and treated like my own.
“Katelyn is so reliable. She came the day before and met the doggies and they loved her!! Kate stopped in and fed my doggies dinner and let them out to potty. She sent me 12 pictures and was so good to both of my Aussies. They trust her and I trust her. We will be booking with Katelyn again!”
About: I am your furry friend's new bestie! For my entire life, I have cared for animals such as dogs, cats, koi fish, and chinchillas. I have experience with kittens and senior cats, as well as special cat breeds like Maine Coons. I have also cared for small dog breeds like Chihuahuas and large dog breeds like Labradors. I have experience with raising two Labrador puppies through seniorhood. I love all animals, and I love that every pet has their own unique personality and care needs. I currently have a rescue pup. His name is Mochi, and he is a 1 year old lab mix. I adopted him at just 2 months old. I raised him through puppyhood, ensuring that he was thoroughly trained and socialized. Mochi loves to run, play, and cuddle. He especially loves to play with my roommate’s two mini dachshunds. Mochi is a happy-go-lucky guy! WEEKDAYS: My work schedule is variable. Generally, I am able to provide care in the afternoons and evenings. WEEKENDS: I am available ALL DAY on weekends. For overnight stays, Friday-Sunday are wide open. If you have any questions, please reach out! I am flexible and would love to accomodate whatever care needs your pet may have. Your pet's safety is my #1 priority. I can accommodate any special instructions you give me. I can easily crate a dog and create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for them! I am a one-client sitter, meaning that if you book me for any service, I will only care for your pets during that time. For example, I will not be walking your dog(s) in a group with other clients' dogs, but I can walk multiple dogs if you have 2+ that need to be walked at once! This is one way that I ensure safety for the pets I care for, especially ones that are perhaps more shy and need one-on-one attention.
About: My husband and I have been doing Rover for over three years now! We previously lived in NC. I’ve owned dogs/cats until old age and have been around animals my whole life. I have a 9 year old lab, and adopted a 8 year old pug through dog sitting on this app. And finally we joined the Frenchie gang as well. I love animals and would love to help with your needs. If you are in need of care and it says I am not available, just message me and I will see what I can do, my preferences on here I have set just to avoid driving certain distances (gas prices) but we could possibly work something out, don’t hesitate to reach out! Also, for safety purposes we do not take in intact males or in heat females because my boy Remi is also intact. We apologize for the inconvenience but safety for everyone comes first! I do prefer pick ups/drop offs/meet and greets for my husband to be present for safety purposes, so if I ask if times can be modified I apologize, it’s to accommodate to when he will be home! Our pups occupy their end of the house, yours can occupy the rest! Safety comes first for me so let me know your preferences. However you care for your pet in your home, if applicable I will do the same if needed. I understand dogs need routine to avoid stress. *PLEASE NOTE!!! If you have a male dog that is not neutered, he will be kept SEPARATE. In some cases or most cases we still possibly will decline the sit if it will be difficult to keep separate. I understand it is hard to find care because our male is also not neutered so I want to make it easier for people like us! So please understand that it is for both of the dog’s safety and peace.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Avalon Beach on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
