“Our dog had another great visit with Jennie! She was a lifesaver - we had to suddenly go out of town and she was available same day to stop in and care for her. She always leaves a note on the app detailing what she did with our dog and attaches photos. She even washed her bowl for us. Highly recommend!”
About: Experienced, dependable, and trustworthy pet lover providing gentle, attentive care. Comfortable with puppies, seniors and shy pets. I focus on safety, routine, and giving each animal genuine affection. I have an open, adjustable schedule since I don’t work a typical 9–5. I’m active, at the gym daily, and can easily fit care around my daughter’s activities. I treat every pet like my own—safe walks, clean spaces, and consistent routines. In clients’ homes, I follow their rules, give lots of attention, and make sure pets always feel comfortable and secure.
About: I’m not going to sugar coat anything I’m no pet trainer, but I can most certainly be there when you need the help! Need your pets cared for while you’re away? Or your house? Give me a call! Currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care of your pets and or homes, I am available Monday to Sunday at anytime. I have been around animals (mainly dogs) my whole life. Animals just like people have emotions it’s just our job as a pet owner to know what they need, that’s what I’m here for.
About: Since I was a small girl Ive owned and cared for a range of animals, having three dogs a majority of my life along with other critters. I currently own exotic pets but have a long history with rescue animals! I currently am a part time employee at a medical office and college med student. With summer around the corner my day to day life slows down and I have more time to give back to the community I love! I currently am not allowed animals in my home due to my lease but I am more than willing to travel the distance for your pets needs!
“Trish was wonderful with our scared little nervous nelly. Trish is the first sitter that was able to get our baby to come out from under the bed. She even had her eating out of her hand. We will definitely call on Trish again when we need to have a pet sitter!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by furry friends since I was young. I’m trusted by friends and family to take care of their pets while they travel or figure out life changes. I’m diligent about brushing, cleaning and snuggling-whatever your pup needs, I’m on it! I currently work full time from 9AM-5PM on a four day schedule. In the early morning’s and evenings I am available for walks, play time, training reinforcement, as well as clean up and any additional help needed while you’re away. During the weekends- I’m available all day Saturday-Mondays for walks and plenty of enrichment time! I have a highly energetic dog to keep your pet company! If your pet does not do well with other animals, I am happy to accommodate as needed. With plenty of parks and hikes in the area, I can assure you we’ll take plenty of walks. I will crate your pet if needed for their own safety.
About: I currently work at an Animal Hospital and have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable with nail trims, grooming, and expressing anal glands. I can also help with basic care needs and transportation if needed, including pet pick-up and drop-off.

About: I’ve taken care of pets pretty much all of my life! I love animals and I make sure they feel safe and are taken care of. I’ve taken care of puppies, kittens, and senior animals. For senior pets I would massage them a lot due to their arthritis and for the babies I would make sure they are getting their proper food and naps while also prioritizing play time so they can learn and not feel lonely! I’ve had pets with special diets (mixing certain wet food for treats or special dietary needs). I am big on spending time with animals because they have feelings as well and keeping them safe is a priority! I am currently a nursing student with a busy schedule but as long as we can communicate we can make a schedule together! I do usually have two days off which are Wednesday and Friday (I usually use those days to study and I can fit more time in with pet care these days). Some weeks the schedule may be different but I will always be open about what my schedule is looking like. In my home I have an Australian Cattle Dog blue heeler. He has a lot of energy and a sensitive tummy he is on a routine with his food and has a special diet. I make sure he has enough outside time and play time due to his high energy but also make sure he gets his time to calm down and rest. For pets I have I taken care of for others I would make sure they are fed and have water while also spending time with playing and lots of pets!
About: Working in veterinary medicine, I can understand basic animal needs and care. I have been taking care of animals for over 10 years. I will treat your babies like they are my own I work two jobs, both in opposite directions, so to be able to housesit. And given a good amount of time to request days off to give your baby my full attention I prefer housesitting over boarding at my personal home, it’s easier for me, and I feel like the pets would prefer their own home over anyone elses
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals, since I was a very young child, it ranges from cats dogs hamsters to even reptiles. All growing up I have always had dogs large and small and moving out of my parents house. I also got a cat of my own and have raised two animals by myself living out of my parents home for over 11 years now. I currently have an open schedule, I'm looking to go to school here in the spring time; but as of now I have a open schedule. As approaching your home, I will assess the environment and the fur baby when I get there and calmly assure the animal that I'm there to help and to love for them as their humans do.
About: Hi! We’re a sibling team who loves caring for pets and treating them like family. This account is now shared between us, but my sister Kathy will be the primary caregiver and will be handling most of the communication, bookings, and day-to-day services. We both have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From long walks and playtime to feeding routines and giving lots of attention, we understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. We’re comfortable following specific instructions to make sure your pet stays happy, safe, and on their normal routine while you’re away. My sister, who you’ll be mainly interacting with, is reliable, patient, and genuinely loves animals. She has hands-on experience with pet sitting, walking, and making sure pets feel comfortable in new situations. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or just someone to stick to their routine, she’s got it covered. We know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, so we’re committed to clear communication, updates, and giving you peace of mind. I am a full time nursing student at the moment. I have quite a busy schedule but I am always free to give my time for dogs and cats because they bring me so much joy. I am mostly free on weekends but I do offer a full Thursday as well. For Monday’s, I have Zoom meetings every week from 4:30pm-6:45pm so if that’s something I can work on while being with your pets, it works out! I can offer to take your pets for walks, or simply play with them in the yard, or just lay around and cuddle with them if they are the more relaxed kinds. I am not offering boarding at the moment, so any services I am offering, it will be held at your place set by your rules!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Avon Park on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 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.
