“This was our first time using Rover. We are so pleased with our experience with Zoey! She was very communicative, trustworthy and kind to our kitties. She sent photos everyday, even of our super scaredy cat who hid in tight spots during visits. She made sure everyone was doing well and gave pets to the ones who came out of hiding for attention. Zoey is our first pick for our next pet sitting service need!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for animals of all ages and personalities! As a pet parent to a senior German Shepherd and four cats, I understand that every pet has their own unique needs, routines, and quirks. I have firsthand experience caring for senior pets, including those with arthritis, mobility challenges, and the need for a little extra patience and TLC. I also previously had a dog with epilepsy, so I’m very familiar with administering daily medications, maintaining consistent routines, and providing extra care for pets with medical needs. I’m also comfortable with energetic younger pets who need plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention! I’m patient, nurturing, dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving hands! 🐾❤️ I work from home full-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the week! As a pet parent myself, caring for animals is already a huge part of my everyday routine. I love spending time outdoors, going for walks, and making sure my pets get plenty of love and attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away! As a pet parent to both dogs and cats, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own! Whether that means sticking to their feeding schedule, giving medications when needed and discussed beforehand, keeping their space clean, or simply spending extra time giving them love and attention. I understand that every animal has their own personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also send plenty of pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

About: I won’t lie and say I’ve professionally taken care of dogs for 15 years—but I’ve taken care of dogs ever since elementary school, in my own household and in others’. I know what to look out for to prevent a dog from getting into trouble. I’ve dealt with just about all kinds of messes. And I can handle any size of dog. My main job is part-time contract work, so there are a lot of monetary and time gaps that need filled. That said, my routine allows a lot of room for pet sitting! Every dog is different, so I take that approach with each pet I look after. I follow owner’s instructions, and if I have any questions I am not afraid to ask for clarification—the dog’s/owner’s needs come first. I love giving dogs the attention they deserve (which is usually a lot), and am great at playing.

About: I have always grown up with dogs and cats. The last 20 years I have always had an Italian mastiff by my side, and I discovered my love of animals at a very young age. I understand the importance of patience, and an eye to detail when it comes to caring for other peoples animals, and I make sure whether I animal sit for a friend/coworker/stranger how important it is that the animals receive the best care as if they were my own. I currently work in dental care 4 days a week full time, and in my other 3 days of free time I would love to spend it helping someone care for their animals (or during my work week). I have a very easy going schedule and would love to fill up more of my free time with pets. I care for my own two cats currently I love making sure I have a set list of all the expectations needed to care for an animal that is not mine. Nothing is more important to me than making sure the owners mind is at ease while away, not interrupting the animals daily routine, and making sure they are cared for in the best way possible.

About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel

She sent photos everyday, even of our super scaredy cat who hid in tight spots during visits. She made sure everyone was doing well and gave pets to the ones who came out of hiding for attention. Zoey is our first pick for our next pet sitting service need!

Chrystal was amazing. Super short notice and on a holiday she was available with no issues. One of my cats can be more than a little spicy with strangers but had no problem with Chrystal. 10/10 would recommend and will be using again for sure.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Barberton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Barberton is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $27 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 312 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Barberton. 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 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.

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

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% 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 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.
