“Shannon was amazing! Gave my baby so much attention, monitored the litter box and automatic feeder every visit, and had the absolute best communication. I will def be using her again!”
“Annie took good care of my two cats while I was gone for a few days. She was very communicative and left my home clean. My cats seemed to like her from the start too. I’d definitely recommend her.”
“Christine is excellent! What I like about her is she communicates well and clearly follows every instruction you ask her. Paris our cat was well taken care of. She was on time and updated if she's on her way and once she finished the drop-in. Definitely a trusted sitter! I will highly recommend her. Thank you so much Christine! :)”
“A little late on this, but this was the second time August sat for my senior diabetic cat and I had zero worries about my baby stressing out while I was gone. This was the longest stretch I'd ever been gone, and when I got back she was perfectly healthy and happy! August does such a great job with her, from feeding to cuddling her 24/7, and sending me videos and pics. Cannot recommend her enough.”
“Julieth was great. She got along with my cats immediately. She always sent pictures and didn’t have any issues with helping apply mousse and giving a pill for Catalina. I will be using her for future drop in visits.”
About: I have always loved fur animals! I was raised having dogs in the home and helping with neighbor pets when I was available. I am trained to care for puppies, small to medium-size dogs and cats. I do work full-time during the week but flexible with timely bookings and advanced notice. I do believe in giving the pets all the tenderness, love, and care they deserve. I do work full-time during the week and do commute daily. However, the early evenings are my available time. I do often have 3 day weekends and open to checking and being with the pets if needed. I do ask to have some flexibility to run errands, and I do attend classes on the weekends if scheduled. I am a grad student. I treat the client's home as my own. I am a very clean, tidy and responsible person. I am open to overnight visits but do request some flexibility depending on my schedule. I am open and available to walk pets as needed once I am back from work or not attending classes.
“We've hired Ken for house sitting our cat. He was very responsive and communicated everything with us. Since we were out of the country during this horrific heat wave, he was kind enough to water our yards for us. Ken sent us pictures and videos of our pet daily. I highly recommend Ken's services.”
“Mara was great with our cats from the moment she arrived for the meet and greet. Both cats were friendly with her on day one, which isn’t typical for our cats. One or both of them usually takes a moment to warm up to new people. That put me at ease right away. I appreciated how thorough she was in asking questions to understand our cats’ needs while we were out of town. We were gone for two weeks, and Mara dropped in each day and stayed a few nights. When we came home, our cats were happy and healthy, and our home was well maintained. She even offered to water our plants while we were away, so those were happy and healthy when we returned as well! We’d absolutely book with Mara again. She gave us peace of mind while we were away from home so we could enjoy our time with family and be present.”
“Lucia was amazing! We’ve never used Rover for our cats but so glad we did. Lucia was responsive, loving and caring the whole way through. She sent pictures on each visit. We have one cat that’s pretty shy with new people but she warmed up to Lucia pretty quick which says a lot.”
“Leslie is awesome!! My cat was super comfortable with her and enjoyed the check-ins. Leslie was thorough with everything I had asked for, very communicative, punctual, and sent over a bunch of cute pics! I'll definitely be reaching out to her again when I need a sitter in the future!”
About: I’ve never not had pets and I’ve taken care of other people’s dogs and cats since I was 10. I will walk, feed, cuddle, bathe, and play with your pets as I would my own. Each of the individuals in my photos are beloved pets that I have taken care of over the past several years. Some belong to my family and friends, some are housemates from the same client, and there have been many more that are not pictured. I am happy to accommodate any special needs, sensitivities, behavior concerns, or instructions. I look forward to meeting your furry loved ones! I am building a client base to shift my focus to full time pet care. I am very flexible and accommodating, and I’ll work with you to make sure your needs, and your pet’s needs, are met. I will treat your pets and your home as I do my own. No messes, and no hungry or thirsty animals. Just lots of love and attention!
About: I'm a local Austinite who grew up always having a dog in the house and currently have three dogs who spend their days hiking through the greenbelt and exploring the great outdoors. I've had extensive experience dogsitting with dogs of all shapes and sizes and have no problem with multiple, long walks each day to make sure the dog is getting the appropriate amount of exercise. I have also volunteered many hours for Austin Pets Alive and fully support their mission to help the struggling animals in our city. Whether you have a big dog who needs to be tuckered out while you're away at work or a little pup who just needs to be let out and given some quality attention, I'd be happy to help!
“Watson’s stay with Isabelle could not have been better! She was super flexible with my last minute planning, thorough when it came to maintaining my kitty’s routine, and so communicative as I received multiple updates and pictures each day! Helped make my week long vacation worry free!! Really the reset I needed, will be booking with her again :)”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Barton Creek is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $33 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.

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 Barton Creek. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
