Griffin was great! He helped Momo when we needed a sitter last minute. He asked thoughtful questions and really hit it off with Momo during their meet and greet. 10/10 would recommend as a sitter and we’re looking forward to scheduling more visits!

Joy was very easy to work with, took great care of our cats and even our house too. She fed, watered, played with, loved on, and cleaned up after 5 cats for a week straight with just a few days of notice. She dropped our keys off the day we returned home and provided lots of updates on our pets. Really good experience and would ask her to watch them all again.

About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs for many years. I have two wonderful dogs Kona and Beans, both over the age of 10! Have yet to meet an animal who doesn’t like me! Can move around my schedule for whenever your pet needs! Available for after work drop ins as well! Please reach out if you need a sitter! Love playing in the yard with dogs, especially throwing the ball and playing fetch. Always make sure they have plenty of water afterwords. As well as lots of pets and belly rubs!

Kelly is the absolute best! We’ve used her multiple times for both drop in visits and house sitting. She has always taken great care of all our animals and able to give meds no problems. She has gone above & beyond and we will absolutely use Kelly again-highly recommend!

Brandi is the best! She took notes on what needed to be done during the drop in and made sure to do them all (and some!). She was great about taking some photo updates and giving Copernicus plenty of attention before leaving. So happy we found her to watch our furbaby while we were gone!

Jill was WONDERFUL!! So nice to be able to have the puppers/kitties stay at home and not be worried the entire time we were away. Jill sent lots of pictures and updates and even cleaned the cat litterbox which was unexpected, but certainly appreciated!! I would use Jill again in a heartbeat...the dogs miss her already!

About: I grew up with dogs of every kind: German Shepherds, Dalmatians, Cocker Spaniels, Lhasa Apsos, and plenty of friends' Poodles and Sheepdogs. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I'm comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring new trails, or just wants company while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I'll treat your dog like one of my own. I work full-time during the week, so I'm available for evening walks, overnight care, and weekends. I don't mind long walks if needed and even some extra attention like belly rubbing. I currently cannot host pets in my home due to condominium rules. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll also keep your home tidy, respect your instructions, and provide updates so you know your pet is safe and well cared for while you're away.

About: As a lifelong dog owner and current dog mom myself, I love all pups! I'm an early childhood special ed teacher who's looking to love on some fur babies this summer. Whether your dog needs a serious power walk or a chill potty break and snuggles, I've got them covered! I'm comfortable with basic command reinforcement, can stick to mealtime routines or a quick brush-out if needed! I'm happy to treat them as my own! :) I have not had cats before but am happy to feed or give your kitties some love as well! I'm a special education teacher on summer break which means my availability is flexible! I will be off of work beginning May 26th. I do have my own pup at home so I prefer to do check ins and walks as needed! Because I like to stay active with my own family, friends and pup during the break, I do require at least 48 hours of notice for bookings. I am generally available between 8am to 8pm. Since I have my own pup, I'm only doing house calls! Your dog will get my full attention in the comfort of their own neighborhood. I will make sure to check pavements before a walk and make sure collars/harnesses are firmly attached before we head out. You'll get plenty of photo updates!

About: With a nurturing touch and an innate ability to quickly bond with animals, I provide exceptional pet care by treating them as cherished family members. Specializing in both puppy training and senior care, I ensure that each pet receives personalized attention and the highest standard of care. Drawing from my experience of owning multiple dogs since the age of 12, I understand the unique needs and dynamics of canine companionship. After completing my morning workouts, basketball training, and studies, I have plenty of free time throughout the day. I find solace in spending time with pets during these moments of relaxation. It's a genuine joy for me, and I'm always available to make new furry friends whenever the opportunity arises. I create a safe and cozy environment for pets, whether it's at my place or yours. I make sure there are no dangers around and follow your instructions closely. Your furry friend will get all the care they need, so you can relax knowing they're in good hands.

About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 800 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Barnett. 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 Barnett. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
