I cannot say enough good things about Kelly. This is the second time she has worked with my dogs and I can confidently say that she is a kind and caring animal caregiver. I felt relaxed knowing my elderly dogs were with her because she is attentive and thorough in following instructions. My dogs adore her. She loves on them as if they are her own babies. She is respectful of our home and communicates regularly. I strongly recommend Kelly for sitting and drop-ins, and plan to use her for all future dog sitting needs.

Wonderful is the best description. I have three dogs that they cared for at my home, while I was out of town. My oldest dog was treated with the needed TLC she required. The other two are very high energy and were given the attention they demand. I do not hesitate to recommend their services to others! My dogs have been complaining that I had to come home and stop their visits... :)

Really took her time to learn my cats’ needs and kept me updated throughout the day. Her medical background made me feel comfortable leaving my cat with her just a week after they had surgery.

Courtney was a perfect first-time Rover experience for our family! She sent frequent updates and went above and beyond with our cat's care. Courtney even went as far as to offer to check on the house after a particularly nasty storm. Thank you so much for your care and attention!

Noah came to our house and checked on our two dogs three times! He was respectful of our home, and so sweet to them, and took amazing care of them and gave them tons of love and attention. He was on time, in no rush, and fulfilled all of my requests and more. Noah was so friendly and kind—We would 100% have him care for our dogs again!

About: All my life I’ve grown up around dogs, rabbits, fish, and most recently cats! So I’m no stranger to the cuddly, silly, and sometimes unpredictable behaviors pets can throw your way. I have experience volunteering at the Carroll County Humane Society working in the cat room to socialize kitties, and in the dog area providing them with enrichment activities! As a longtime pet lover and owner I understand that every animal is unique and has their own quirks and personalities, and I’m capable of learning your pet and giving them the best care I can! I always treat my clients homes and pets with care and respect. I’m sure to clean up after myself and the pets. I’m not just a pet sitter I’m also a house sitter so I’m willing to get the mail, take trash out, etc…

About: I have been in a home with dogs all of my life, as well as volunteered for shelters in my area. I am comfortable with caring for basic necessities and can administer certain medications if needed. I owned two dogs myself, who are the highlight of my life. Unfortunately, my cattle dog mix passed away in January 2025 due to unforeseen health problems, and I miss him every day, but I focus on making sure my surviving dog has the best life possible. 🖤 I am a basic obedience dog trainer, too. If your dog pulls on the leash while walking, we can talk about ways to fix that too. Being as I focus currently only on basic obedience, I can not assist with behavioral problems and will recommend a trainer who is more suited to help you. I know that you only want the best for your dog, and I could not agree more! I want to help you get the best dog you can out of your companion. I can work any day, anytime. I am new to Westminster and am getting to know the area but look forward to getting out there I have never had any issues with a pet escaping. If your dog has those kinds of impulses, I am prepared to teach them impulse control to help curb that behavior.

About: I’ve always helped out neighbors, coworkers, friends, and family friends with their pets. My simple pleasure is taking dogs on long walks and being outside. I’m currently working part time so I’ll be free for walks and playing with your animals very often. I’m easy to schedule if you need mornings, afternoons, or both! I take dogs on long long walks (at least a mile) I can of course do less if your dog isn’t up to the challenge. I love to play after a walk as well.

About: From house sitting and petting sitting for neighbors when I was young, to fostering pets for the past 5 years, and caring for friends pets when they go away, I have always enjoyed meeting new dogs & cats and caring for them, feeding them or administering medications, playing with & walking them, or just sitting & talking with them, even bathing them! I have a calm and friendly personality that animals gravitate to. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible. My kids are 17 & 18 so they drive themselves around. I can help on weekends, overnights, weekdays, nearly any time, as well as on short notice. I would offer my own home as well but I have a cat and a dog so sometimes the guest pets don't get along with other animals. In your home I can sit with them and talk to them if they're a lazy pet, or take your pup for a walk or running if they're high energy. I could also take him or her for car rides to get a pup cup at Starbucks or to my large fenced in backyard to run around. I live off Sunshine Way in Westminster near the Wal-mart.

I like to know what behaviors & routines need to get accustomed too so that my clients feel comfortable because I know how to care for them based on what their parents tell me.

First time using Rover. Ana was super responsive and immediately came over to meet the dogs and go over any concerns. During her visits, she communicated very well and really made the process easy. Would highly recommend her to everyone.

Shaelin took wonderful care of our four cats, fish, and chickens while we were away for the weekend! She had great communication throughout our trip, sent lots of pictures and updates, and gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear from the photos that our cats were comfortable and happy with her. We came home to well-cared-for pets and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We would absolutely book Shaelin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!

OH MY GOSH!!! Even though I have extensive experience caring for animals, I have never hired anyone to take care of mine. I had a unique situation and was desperate for help. If I was not able to find care, my daughters and I would not have been able to attend my brother's wedding. I found Sam's profile pretty quickly and didn't need to look any further. I see why she has all 5 stars and numerous repeat clients. She was timely with communication, thorough, considerate, compassionate, on time, responsible, trustworthy, and reasonably priced. If I ever hire through Rover again, Sam will be the person all others will stack up against. My brother's wedding was wonderful, and Sam made our trip possible. THANK YOU, SAM!!!! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Avondale on Rover is $14.43 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,872 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Avondale. 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 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 Avondale. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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 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.
