“Molly was amazing! Went to Jersey shore for 2 weeks and she handled EVERYTHING! Feedings, extra walks, picking up the mail… she was above and beyond. Great at communicating and lots of photos and details. Always on time. So responsible and mature.”
“Emily did a great job with our Gordon! This was our first time leaving him and she made us feel as comfortable as we could leaving him. Emily was on time for all walks and sent us at least one pic each visit. Very thankful for her support and for taking care of our boy!”
“Courtney was fantastic! The updates I received from her drop-in visits were so detailed and thorough. Communication was proactive in terms of scheduling/asking any questions about care instructions. She’ll take great care of your pets!”
“My kitties loved Tina! She kept me updated with photos and was easy to communicate with before during and after the booking. We would 100% recommend her as a sitter and look forward to booking again. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was caring for the kitties.”
“Cece is very sweet. She followed all of my directions and took care of our kittens while we were briefly out of town. She also managed to impress our one kitten who is apprehensive of strangers. She sent pictures which we greatly appreciated. Thank you again!”
“Amy took very good care of our kitten, played a lot with him and made sure he was happy. She communicates a lot, which was reassuring for us. We highly recommend her and will be happy to work with her next time we'll have to leave town.”
“Amanda is such a great sitter for our kitties! She is attentive, caring, and communicative. We have trusted her twice with our cats on long tips and she has always been so caring and helpful.”
“Leah has been an excellent resource as I’ve returned to work following the passing of my 12 year old shepherd’s sister/long time companion dog. Leah’s updates are detailed and include astute behavior observations that have helped me to gauge how my dog is coping when I’m at work (and she takes cute pics).”
“Danielle was excellent with our dog and cat! She sent loads of pictures while we were away, and went the extra mile to make sure our animals were well taken care of. Would definitely use her again!”
“Jordan has been phenomenal with my puppy! He's very communicative and gives great recaps, this is so important when you’re trying to train and create a routine with a puppy. I’m so glad to have him helping us, my dog Leroy and I both are thankful for his service!”
“Madeline was reliable, efficient, caring, and respectful. She cleaned dishes my cats used without me asking, clean us the unexpected messes the cats made, and provided updates with pictures throughout the process. This was my first time using rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience”
“We booked a last minute vacation, and thankfully Sara was available to check in on our cats. Our overall experience with Sara was an 11/10. We have three cats with three very distinct personalities and different needs, but Sara was ready and willing to make sure they had the best care while we were gone. Her communication was great. We could tell how much the cats enjoyed her by all of the adorable (and funny) photos she shared each visit. We hope that Sara will be available to check in on our cats next time we are out of town. 🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛”
“Wojciech took great care of our dog Nutella while we were at a wedding. This was our first time having a drop in visit in our home. He was super responsive and kept us updated on how much she ate and made sure she went to the bathroom. Nutella definitely appreciated the long walk as well! We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Abigail did an amazing job! She left great notes and was responsive. It was my first time using this app and she exceeded all of my expectations! Will definitely have her again if the schedule works out!”
“Joy was very responsible and kept me updated with lots of pics & videos. She always made sure my cats were well taken care of and would often stay a little longer to play with them and give them some extra attention. I really appreciated how caring and reliable she was and would definitely book her again!”
“Emily is a huge cat lover! She was attentive to details and provided detailed updates with photos for our two cats, including one with special needs. I would definitely recommend booking her to take care of your cats.”
“Shannon did a great job with my dog! She was happy when I got home from work. The pictures made my day while I was at work. Will definitely use Shannon again in the near future”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Bala-Cynwyd
Mo is fantastic! From our first meeting I knew she would be perfect for watching my kitties, they went right up to her which is always a great sign. Her rover card updates further confirmed I can be rest assured that my girls were in the best care. She was thoughtful and thorough with her care and reports. Couldn’t recommend Mo more.
My cats and I love Madeline! She is so sweet and very dependable. Being a whole ocean away from my cats was nerve wracking, but I felt very safe with them in her care. She earned the trust of even my shy cat, and kept me updated on things that seemed off (ie no poop in a litter box one day). She also sends so many of the best and cutest photos ♥️ I will definitely be booking her again and would recommend to anyone who needs a reliable sitter.
Kimberly took such great care of my two kitties at extremely short notice. She was super communicative throughout her visits, which I appreciated being away from my babies, and followed my instructions to a T. I highly recommend Kimberly and will be using her services in the future!! ☺️
Joy was very responsible and kept me updated with lots of pics & videos. She always made sure my cats were well taken care of and would often stay a little longer to play with them and give them some extra attention. I really appreciated how caring and reliable she was and would definitely book her again!
Julia has watched our cats, Remy and Daphne, twice now and she is so great! She is super responsive to messages, respectful of our home, and so caring with the cats. She captures the funniest pictures of them while we're away, and the cats seem so happy when she's here. I would absolutely recommend Julia!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Bala-Cynwyd on Rover is $22.2 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 4,614 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Bala-Cynwyd. 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.

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.
