“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. 😊”
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.
“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!!”
“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!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs, including administering medications when needed. With 15 years of personal and professional dog‑care experience, I provide patient, reliable, and consistently high‑quality care. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide consistent and attentive care throughout the week. I’m available to come to your home for visits, walks, and dedicated time with your dog. I provide care directly in your dog’s home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow your established routines, maintain a calm and safe environment, and ensure your pet receives attentive supervision, gentle handling, and consistent comfort throughout each visit.
About: I adore pups of all shapes and sizes. I have extensive experience with all types of breed from minis to giant breeds as well as all ages from literally days old to seniors in their late teens In addition to dogs I also have experience with cats, chickens, rabbits, fish, goats and horses. I spent 18 months running a barn, taking care of 17 horses and the farm cats. In addition to my own pets at the time- two rabbits and a rescue cat. Since moving back to Florida I have managed to acquire more rescue cats I also have extensive first aid knowledge and am capable of giving oral or topical medications as well as intramuscular injections I now work in a vet’s office My current work schedule is 7:45am-6pm Monday- Wednesday & Friday. I also work 7:45am-12:30pm every other Saturday. So unfortunately my time during the week is limited and my availability would be best suited to older, lower energy dogs I unfortunately can not have any animals at my home. However, I find that staying in a more familiar environment is often less stressful for the animals. I treat every animal I care for as if they are my own- always following feeding instructions to the letter, ensuring constant access to fresh water, facilitating adequate and suitable play/exercise, as well as giving lots of snuggles. I have medical training and can assess injuries and treat minor wounds as well as stabilize for transportation if needed
“Our usual pet sitter was away, and Ashley saved our trip! She was super responsive, helpful, and went above our expectations, especially when it came to getting our BB medicated on time! We also had one of our outside babies get rescued while we were gone, and Ashley checked in to make sure the poor baby was okay! With the time change for Daylight Saving, our time stamps were alllllll over the place, and Ashley helped ease all my worries. We would love for Ashley to come back to check in on our boys”
“Lydia did a fantastic job taking care of my babies! She was super prompt and professional, and went above and beyond to remove the little green sticky things they get in their fur when playing outside. The daily check-ins & photos gave me peace of mind as well. The house was clean and water bowls fresh when we got back. I will definitely be calling on Lydia the next time I need pet care, and highly recommend her to anyone else looking for their pets to be loved on and well taken care of while away! Thank You, Lydia!”
About: I have been around dogs since I was 3 years old. I have always had family dogs and recently lost my German Shepherd. I have pet sat for friends and family since I was in middle school. I work from home so I will be able to drop in multiple times throughout the day. I currently do not have kids so am very flexible with my time. I can stay overnight in your house with your animals and drop in multiple times a day. I have a lot of experience with strong dogs and enjoy taking dogs on adventures or just walks around the neighborhood.
“It's definitely a leap of faith to entrust the care of beloved pets to a stranger. We've never hired a pet-sitter before so we were nervous about leaving our two cats, Leonardo and Dickens, with someone that we didn't know personally. We absolutely made the right choice with Reilly. She showed up on time for every single drop-in over two weeks, reassuring us with her updates and pictures of the boys. Just as important, it was obvious that the boys very quickly grew to adore Reilly and that affection came through clearly in the pictures. When you find someone who is both reliable and skilled at interacting with animals, that's the person you want taking care of the pets that have become a dear part of your family. Without question, if we ever need a pet sitter again we will be looking for Reilly first.”
About: I’ve always had cats and dogs growing up. I am very passionate about taking care of animals and plan to go into veterinary school! Everyone in my life knows if they need anyone to take care of their pets I’m the first person to call! I am currently in school but I am available every morning until 12:00 pm and again after 3:30 pm. I am also available every weekend all day. I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 dogs (3yrs and 1yr) and 2 cats. They are all very friendly and my dogs love to play.
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: Animals are my life! Dogs and cats have been a part of my family since I was three. I have had at least one dog (often more) in my life from that point on. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have a very open schedule to help you and your pets feel comfortable. I have owned many different types of dogs. Everything from puppies to senior dogs and cats, I can handle. In short, I am a dependable, flexible, schedule oriented individual who would love to care for your dogs and cats anyway that I can. I am located in Pace. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your animals! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions! As a stay at home mother of three. I will have plenty of time to meet the needs of your pets. I enjoy walks too. I have a fenced in yard and take dogs on walks often. I will treat your pet as my own. Only the best for our furry children.

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

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.
