“Laura was just fantastic. She sent numerous photos (some are SO CUTE!!!) and videos, left everything clean, and my babies were clearly well cared for. She was truly wonderful, and I will employ her again.”
About: My lifelong love of animals began with my mom’s senior calico cat and my dad’s anxiety fueled black lab. They were far more patient than I deserved and kept me well supervised. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to adopt and foster some of the sweetest, quirkiest felines while soaking in time with loved one’s dogs. As a foster, my specialty is anxious personalities who need extra support to come out of their shells. I have experience caring for kittens/puppies, seniors, multiples, disabilities, and personalities big and small. Being away from furry family members is hard and I understand the excitement of that first snuggle when you’re back home. My goal is to prioritize your pet’s individual needs in thoughtful, consistent ways while maintaining as much normalcy as possible until they’re back in your arms. Thank you for your consideration and for being a great fur parent! I’m currently very flexible with scheduling. Showing up consistently for your family is very important to me and strict adherence to the established schedule is very easy during the available time slots. The more information you can share regarding your pet’s habits, preferences, and favorite hiding spots, the better! This information allows me to care for your pet as efficiently and unobtrusively as possible. It takes a lot of trust to welcome someone into your home while they care for your family member and it’s not something I take for granted. During a typical visit, we’ll tackle the great outdoors right away for a bathroom break. Then I like to complete any food or water needs so that the last part of the visit can be solely focused on affection for your pet.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have six amazing fur babies! 2 senior dogs, my childhood pets, and my four cats. Two of the cats were a bonded pair I rescued from SPCA while my other two cats were strays off the streets! I just love taking care of animals in any way, shape or form! I am excited to meet all the fur babies I soon take care of!! :) I have a remote marketing job so I am extremely flexible when it comes to taking care of fur babies! I also volunteer at Pitt county animal services to help show those babies some love as well! I spoil all of my babies. They sleep with me, get lots of treats and lots of pets!! My senior pups aren’t able to enjoy dog parks anymore so I love to just sit out in my back yard with them while they sniff and walk around!!
“My experience with Madi was great! Showed up right on time. Great interactions with my cat, lots of play time as well as cuddles. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: Im a nursing student who would love to meet and care for your furry best friend! I am in the area and i don’t have class everyday so im pretty available! I have always had a dog in our house for about 7 years. I have babysat neighbors dogs and cats. I have had 4 dogs at a time before and we have adopted rescues. I have had young pups to senior animals. I have clincials on Monday from 6:30am-12:30pm and it’s about an hour away so i’ll be available around 2:30-3pm. Free on Tuesdays! I have classes on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 8am-3pm. Always making sure they have water and feeding is on time/ the right amount. Checking the temperature for the animals' safety and their comfort. Gentle with senior animals so they have a sense of security while I am there. If not too hot, we would take walks, but also being cautious of their paws on hot pavement and overheating!

About: I have had pets, such as cat and dogs, since I was a kid. I have many years of experience pet sitting dogs and cats. I have pet sit for family, and friends, in addition to having experience working as a kennel technician. I love working and taking care of animals! I work full-time as a pharmacy technician Monday to Friday. I am available to pet sit/drop in anytime on weekends, and I am available for drop in visits during the week.

About: Hi there! My name is Hannah and I work at the hospital. I have one medium sized dog, one very large dog (Great Pyrenees) and three cats currently, and if it were feasible, I would have 100 more. I love animals of all shapes and sizes (ok, maybe except spiders & roaches), but in particular I love cats and dogs. Nothing turns my bad day to a great one like when my dog greets me when I walk through the door! Please give me the pleasure of meeting, loving, and wearing out your dog! Can't wait to meet them! I have an inconsistent work schedule, so my availability changes from month to month and sometimes even day to day. I will only list availability and accept bookings if I know I have the appropriate amount of time and energy for them! I treat every pet as my own and I love the opportunity to get to know new animals. No matter what type of service, they will undoubtedly feel loved.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for every pet I care for. I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. With reliable communication, attention to detail, and a calm, caring presence, your pet will be treated like family. I am usually free everyday until around 3pm. Some weeks are different but I would love to communicate and find a way to fit your pet in. I create safe environments for pets by making sure they feel secure, relaxed, and respected at all times. I follow each pet’s routine closely, use positive reinforcement, and always supervise during play and feeding. I pay attention to their body language, give them space when needed, and keep their surroundings clean, quiet, and hazard-free. Whether it’s a cozy spot to nap or a calm walk outdoors, I prioritize their comfort and well-being in every moment.
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs since I was little. Being at college without any pets is surprising hard and I’d love to have pets to take care of again I currently work a standard 9-5. Outside of that, I am a homebody with no other responsibilities and plenty of free time to care for your pets. I am unable to care for your pet(s) in my home, but am more than happy to take care of them in your own home. My mom has used Rover on numerous occasions to take care of her cats when she travels to visit me. I understand the responsibility of caring for your animals in your own home!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Baywood
Heather was amazing and just what we needed for our weekend trip! My cat has never been alone for longer than maybe 8 hours so we were a little bit stressed about it but Heather made us feel much much better! She sent very thorough updates and lots of pictures. She really cares about the job and it shows!! I couldn’t recommend her enough.😊
Sabrin did a great job! She sent pictures daily which was a nice touch. All 5 kitties seemed very content when we arrived back from our trip. I am sorry that I am unable to tip at this time. My husband is a military vet and we are on a very tight budget. My daughter paid for everything and thought the tip was included up front. Again, very sorry but Sabrin did a great job and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.
Ashley is passionate about cat sitting. She was always on time, kept the litter boxes cleaned, made sure the two were fed and played with our two kittens. She constantly interacted with the kittens giving them plenty of attention and love. This was my first time using her and plan on using her again. She sent pictures from each visit. It was great to know how good the cats were being taken care of.
Jessica is a wonderful pet sitter. We have been using her services repeatedly and we are absolutely comfortable when she is taking care of our precious cat Bella. She’s always on time and very well organized.She sents a lot of photos and updates us on everything that is happening and takes time to make sure everything is in order before we come home. We will gladly recommend her as a pet sitter.
Did an excellent job looking over my two cats. Left the place very clean. My cats are often a little traumatized after I leave for a while, but with Dima they were completely happy when I got home. I could tell she really cares about cats and gives them lots attention and love.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Baywood is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $38 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.

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.
