“Had 4 drop in visits for 2 cats over a weekend and was very satisfied; on-time, very knowledgeable, cats liked her, respectful, and did very well. 10/10 would recommend for any pet care needs.”
“Avery is amazing!! The only cat sitter I hire. She is attentive and loves my cats. She keeps me informed and sends lots of pictures. My vacations are so much more enjoyable knowing she is checking on them daily. I will never use anyone else. She is the best!!”
About: I grew up with animals in my house including a dog, cat, frogs, lizards as I am a biologists daughter who taught me my love for animals. I love spending time with animals and taking care of them I work 8-5 Monday - Thursday and 8-12 on Friday but am available before and after work and on the weekends. I can check on the animals multiple times a day! I am cognizant that all animals have different personalities / needs. My cat has boundaries that I have gotten to know, and I will make sure to do that with any animals I take care of. I keep a routine with my pets so I would be glad to implement and keep yours going
“Leo had very unheard of off day and wasn’t feeling his injection, but Christina did not give up. I appreciated her willingness to make sure the job was done and was very communicative during the drop in.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my parents believed that helping care for pets was an important way to build responsibility, so animals have always been a part of my life, and I’ve truly never gone without having a pet in my home. Over the years, I’ve gained experience helping care for animals of all ages and needs, including temporary foster pets, senior pets, and pets with special needs. I’m comfortable supporting animals who require medications, extra patience, mobility accommodations, and individualized routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level, and I strive to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, quiet companionship, or needs a little extra support, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would give my own. I’m an occupational therapist at a nursing home in Cincinnati! My work schedule is flexible for me as I need to be. I don’t work weekends! I live in a house with a fully fenced in backyard with a wooden privacy fence. My dog is crated anytime I’m not home! My cat roams free and mostly naps!
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and have been a longtime animal sitter for friends and family ❤️ I LOVE walking and couch cuddles equally 🐶🐈 I also have experience as a long-term sitter (6 months). I am self-employed, working as a part-time consultant and content creator, so my schedule is flexible and I can usually be available any time between 6:30AM-9:30PM for walks/check-ins/feeding/potty breaks. I am extremely conscientious, and I care deeply about honoring the trust people give me when they ask me to take care of their pet and/or home. I have been trusted to stay in and take care of others’ homes multiple times—I treat others’ homes and pets with the same love and care that I would my own.
About: Animals have been my passion since I was old enough to understand. I’ve trained puppies and worked with feral kittens, cared for animals ranging from dogs and cats to sugar gliders, and even worked with medically fragile animals. I currently work full time as a medical assistant however after work I’m an open as can be as well as on the week ends. My house is child free as well as animal proofed. I also have a fur baby, my cat Walter, who is a friend for everyone.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and after recently saying goodbye to my own, I’m excited to share my love with yours. I also have a cat of my own, which has given me an even deeper understanding of different pet personalities and care needs. I provide compassionate, reliable care for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies needing playtime and patience to senior pets requiring extra gentleness and understanding, as well as cats who may need a calm and respectful approach. What sets me apart is my genuine passion for animals and treating each one like family. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7–3, but I’m still available to provide reliable, loving care for pets before or after work and on weekends when needed. I’m always happy to be flexible, just ask! 🤗 I live in an apartment, so dogs will have to go on leash walks for exercise and bathroom breaks. I also have a cat, so any dogs in my care must be comfortable and able to get along with cats. I can crate them if needed, or they’re welcome on all furniture ❤️. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment, making sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and happy while in my care.
About: I am … obsessed with animals. I have been taking care of pets my entire childhood and after graduating college, started raising my own! I was a nanny and dogsitter all throughout college and I have a genuine love for all animals, big and small. I am currently working a hybrid job, so my schedule is very flexible. I also live with my husband, who has been a veterinary technician since 2016. We can handle all kinds of medications, special needs, etc plus one of us is almost always home! I consider myself to be very patient and kind when dealing with others’ pets. I know how important it is to me that my fur baby is taken care of when I’m away, so I promise to treat yours just like my own. I love meeting pets of all ages and kinds, and promise to give each and every one the love they deserve!!! Between my husband and I, someone is almost always home! I wot a flexible hybrid schedule. My husband is currently in school so he’s away for a couple hours for classes a few days per week and then comes right back home. But we’re always willing and able to accommodate things outside of our schedule, just ask! If providing care in my home, I have one older dog named Teddy. We also have a dog park at my apartment complex and lots of places to walk nearby. If providing care at your home, let me know your preferences! I’m happy to walk your baby or just snuggle, whatever you want.
About: I have most of my life in experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, goats. We always had animals at the house and i always would dog sit for my friends and family if they needed me to.

I spend my days taking care of my animals at home, and up keeping my home. I love animals of all kinds I care for pets of clients just like I do my own! With love and compassion.

About: If your pet could choose their own sitter, I’d like to think we’d be friends. 🐾✨ Leaving your pet behind can be stressful, but my goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I currently share my home with three cats and an energetic Lab/Boxer puppy. I have over two years of foster experience and have cared for up to 13 cats at once, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and temperaments. I also volunteer walking shelter dogs, giving me experience with dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and backgrounds. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and love. I believe every pet deserves personalized care, and I’ll take the time to get to know their routine, quirks, and preferences. Whether your pet loves constant attention or prefers their own space, I’ll provide care that makes them feel safe and comfortable. I specialize in: ✅ Drop-in Visits: Every 30 minute visit includes a photo update, fresh water, potty break, playtime, and a full report card. Not just a quick hello! ✅ House Sitting: I provide daytime check-ins every 4–6 hours for meals, potty breaks, and playtime, plus overnight companionship so your pet never feels alone in their own home. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout my stay so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. ✅ 30 minute Dog Walks: a fun stroll around your neighborhood or nearby trail with a mid-walk photo update and enough exercise and mental stimulation to keep your pup happy all day. ✅ Medication administration ✅ Feeding routines ✅ Litter box care ✅ Senior pets ✅ Shy or anxious pets ✅ Puppies & high-energy dogs New to Rover, not new to pets —building my reviews one happy pup & cat at a time. 🐾 Pet care isn’t something I fit around my day , it is my day. As a stay at home sitter with a fully flexible schedule, I’m available seven days a week, mornings through evenings, with no rushing off to a separate job in between. This means your pet isn’t waiting hours for their next check-in or walk. I can accommodate early morning drop-ins, midday visits, evening walks, and last minute requests without it being a disruption to my routine. For house sitting, being home-based means your pet gets consistent, attentive company throughout the entire stay not just the hours before and after a 9 to 5. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. Since I offer in-home visits, walks, and overnight stays in your home, your pet remains in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and keeps their daily routine consistent. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, medication instructions, behavior preferences, and any household rules. I also make sure doors, gates, and entry points are handled carefully and responsibly at all times. During every visit or overnight stay, I maintain a calm and attentive presence so your pet feels secure and cared for. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.
About: Ive been around pets my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I always follow the owners instructions closely and make sure pets feel safe abs comfortable while they're in my care I currently work part-time on Mondays, Tuesdays Thursdays, and Saturdays, ( sometimes they don’t schedule me all days) and I attend college during the week. My school schedule is fairly flexible with no more than two classes per day, usually lasting around 2 hours each. This gives me plenty of time between classes and work to care for pets, provide walks, drop in visits, and spend time with pets staying with me. I'm also available for boarding and overnight care. On weekdays, drop-off and pickup times may need to be arranged around my class schedule, but I'm happy to work with owners to find a time that works for both of us. My days off from work are Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, so I have even more flexibility on those days. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space with plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, meals, and bathroom breaks based on their normal routine. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for while there away from home. In a clients home, I follow the owners instructions closely and try to keep the pets routine as normal as possible. I'm respectful of the home, keep things clean, and make sure the pet gets the care, attention, walks, feeding, and companionship they need. I'm also happy to send updates and photos do owners know how their pet is doing.

Exceptional! David took care of our two dogs & 3 cats during a short vacation for our family. He was available to us relatively last minute, handled our (at times) difficult pup with patience and excellent care (they became fast friends!), and kept us fully updated with check-ins and photos. And on the day of our return when our flight was delayed then cancelled, David accommodated two additional visits very literally at the last minute. We were so grateful for his availability and care! There’s not enough gratitude I could extend here and highly recommend his care. Thank you David, again, for going above and beyond for our crew!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 374 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Batavia. 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.

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.
