“Raegan took great care of my two cats! My cats unexpectedly got into a bag of treats making a mess and Raegan cleaned it all up and gave us peace of mind while we were away from home. She even brought in a package for us which we really appreciate. Great communication throughout and we would definetly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since 2019 and gained professional experience working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, kittens, and older dogs. I’m comfortable with medications, special diets, and individual care needs. I’ve also raised my own pets, including my current puppy and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and especially comfortable with anxious pets. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is fairly flexible, with school being my main set commitment. I’m available throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and needs. I’ll communicate with you about availability ahead of time and make sure your pet gets the consistent care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and following each pet’s normal routine. For drop-ins and walks, I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and other needs. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure and will keep pets supervised throughout my visit. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well.
About: Right now I am a dog sitter and would love to keep expanding and meet more pets 🥰. I love animals and treat them as my own babies. I am reliable and like to get things done. 🤗 It will be on availability. Will be 100 percent if it’s a no then there really wasn’t a way for me to do it. Just communication with one another 🤗 I will be very considerate. Only do what they ask. If there’s like an accident clean it up. 🤗But I would be very loyal 🤗🥰
About: Throughout the years, I have had the privilege of caring for a multitude of pets. From energetic and playful youngsters to wise and delicate seniors. I have gained valuable experience in tending to the needs of beloved animals. Rest assured, I am fully equipped to handle all the responsibilities that come with caring for your cherished pet! I currently work from home and am able to care for your pet as if you were home. The most I would be away is for an hour or so. I am fortunate to possess a dog-friendly haven, perfect for leisurely strolls and a large fenced in yard for play! My home is always clean for myself and my guests, regardless of how many legs.
About: I have experience with both cats and dogs, making sure they have fresh food and water, clean spaces, and lots of attention. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and keeping cats’ litter boxes tidy. Above all, I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time in education so during the school year I’m available after school (2:30 PM), evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I keep my Rover calendar up to date so you always know when I’m available. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize keeping them comfortable and maintaining their routine. I ensure they have fresh food and water, clean up after them, and provide attention and playtime. For cats, I clean litter boxes regularly, and for dogs, I take them outside for bathroom breaks and walks as needed. Routine Updates: I’ll send updates and photos to keep you informed, so you can have peace of mind while away.
“Francesca was awesome! I needed someone to watch my cat very last minute and Francesca answered right away. She sent me updates and took very good care of our cat. Would highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve raised my dogs from puppies to seniors. I have experience with dogs that are reactive and might yell a little when new people come to their home. I love large dogs, especially ones that think they fit in your lap! I work from home, part-time, and with flexible hours so pet care fits easily into my weekly schedule. I do have regular health appointments, but those are known well in advance for scheduling. Up front, I am physically disabled; I can take your dog out to use the bathroom, but I cannot take them on proper walks. Everything else is fair game. Your dog will still get lots of play time, treats, cuddles, and attention while I care for them :) As for cats, don’t worry, I can still scoop the litter box!
About: Your animal will receive plenty of affection, treats, and playtime. I have spent about five years babysitting and caring for animals. Because my neighbors foster cats frequently, I have handled many kittens and bottle feeding, and I have provided proper care for any animals found on the streets, ensuring they receive the necessary treatments and medications. I enjoy giving animals the attention they deserve, playing with them, and learning their needs; I believe an open mind is essential for understanding what they truly want. I recognize that every animal is different, so I apply my best effort to accommodate any animal’s needs. I can assure you that your furry companion will enjoy time with me. Your furry friend will have a blast with me. I’m currently a swim instructor at aquatics for you. I teach babies the basic survival skills of how to swim and float. I’m also attending HCC right now to pursue a degree in diagnostic sonographer. I just graduated from Riverview high school where I played volleyball for six years club and school season. I love going outdoors playing soccer and volleyball. I also enjoy listening to music and dancing. I believe life is way too short, so you have to soak in every moment that you can. I’ll make sure that every animal dog or cat is completely put in a safe and welcoming environment. I think every animal just wants affection and love and they definitely will receive that with me. Any expectations or rules that are given to me will be followed to the T. there are no excuses for any sort of disrespectful or bad behavior on my end. I’ll make sure to provide any service that you would like.
About: I have had and cared for animals my whole life, lots of dogs, cats, rodents and even hermit crabs! Additionally, I highly value your pet's wellbeing and having fun!! I am a senior in college with my classes being online, additionally I work part-time in retail. My schedule is highly flexible and I can give my full attention to your animal friends! I do not offer care in my home, however I will treat yours with the same level of respect and regard as my own. From making sure doors are closed/locked to tidying up on longer care sessions (if requested), I'm Ms. Get it done.
About: Over the past four years, I’ve cared for dozens of dogs and cats for friends and family—walking, feeding, playing, and giving them love while their people were away. What started as doing favors turned into something I genuinely enjoy and feel confident doing, so I thought… why not finally offer it professionally? While I’ve never had a pet of my own (yet!), I treat every animal I care for like they’re family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re gone. I’m attentive, gentle, and great at reading an animal’s vibe—whether they want playtime, cuddles, or just someone calm nearby. I’d love to meet your furry companion and be someone you can count on. Let’s chat about how I can help! I currently work part-time most of my work days are during the weekend so throughout the week I am home all day pretty much every day! I am to make sure I learn the routines of each of my clients and ensure that the pets feel like they are at home!
“Christian has been amazing with my two dogs. He is very detailed oriented and makes sure that he checks all the boxes of care before he leaves for the day. My dogs have definitely taken to him. Christian is reliable and trustworthy, and I look forward to continually working with him.”
“Joshua was great. Came by for a walk though before I left on my trip. Even picked up around my cats feeding bowls everyday before pouring him new food. Was detailed with my bearded dragon and timely everyday.”
“It was our first time using a pet sitter and Donna really put us at ease! We appreciated her professionalism, her friendliness and how she loved on our kitties. She was great with communication and sending pictures. We will definitely use her services again in the future and recommend her to all pet parents.”
About: I have cared for my own dogs as well as others. I have experience as an animal care assistant. I've worked with puppies, older dogs and dogs with special needs.

I care for pets by providing feeding, walking, bathing. If you have a pet with a special need I am open to providing the accommodations for your furry friends!
About: I grew up around animals and have taken care of them as well. I help my friend with foster cats. I have experience with bottle feeding kittens and puppies. I'm currently currently unemployed so I'm currently available at any and all times. I can walk dogs, brush cats and dogs if needed. I can play with the pets as well to help keep them active and happy. I'm currently unemployed, keeping me available all the time. I do internship at a stables in the mornings, the timings vary.

Sara did an exceptional job caring for our cats! She spent so much extra time with them, kept their food, water, and litter boxes clean, and was incredibly communicative throughout our trip. She sent photos and updates after every visit and truly went above and beyond, even helping with a few things around the house. We felt completely at ease knowing our cats were in such good hands. We highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive, and reliable sitter!
★★★★★ I had such a wonderful experience with her caring for my cat through drop-in visits! She did an amazing job, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and was incredibly attentive and reliable. She went above and beyond to make sure my cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing everything was taken care of. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets. I will definitely book with her again! ❤️🐾
Camila was excellent with my kitties. I am so pleased with how she took care of feeding them and cleaning the litter boxes. I know I will be booking Camila in the future. I was skeptical about using a service for my kitties. They have never been looked after except by family. I am so grateful to Camila for her attention and care!
My husband and I did a spur of the moment thing and took the kiddos to Sea World. Abigail took good care of my fur babies and kept in touch with messages and photos. It was so nice not to worry and have a good time with my family. I truly appreciate her doing this at the very last minute. I highly recommend her 😊

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Balm is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
