“Jaya always does an amazing job! We've booked her to check-in on our cat several times and have been very pleased every time. Jaya clearly loves animals and takes pleasure in their company. We've never had a single complaint about her work and would certainly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I fortunately have 6+ years experience working in the veterinary field and I’ve also been pet sitting for 10 years, for close friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues of mine. I can take care of special needs pets, giving oral or injectable medications and changing diapers or applying creams. I got you covered! I’m currently part-time at my job so I have ample time for play dates, walks, sleep overs, whatever your pet care needs may be! I have a large fenced in yard, treats for both dogs and cats, toys for both dogs and cats, and a medium size crate if needed I can provide for those of our furry friends who are crate trained.
“Sophia is the best. She’s caring, attentive, communicative, and reliable—a traveling pet owner’s dream! She even gave my cat a new toy. Overall, Sofia’s work kept me at ease while out of town. I’d recommended her over and over again!”
About: I grew up on 6 acres of land caring for virtually every type of pet you could imagine for the first 15 years of my life. I even started a YouTube channel when I was 13 years old and accumulated 41k followers and over 26 million views, just by sharing my love and compassion for animals! I currently have 3 dogs, 3 cats, a snake, and a bird and would love to help you and your fur babies in your time/s of need. I cannot do overnight housesitting at this time, but I can spend the days at your home if you need :) I currently stay home during the day with my sweet, gentle, animal-loving 1-year-old girl, and only work 3 days a week for a few hours. When I’m not home, my boyfriend is so we have all the time in the world to give your fur babies the time and attention they need and deserve! I am an above-and-beyond type of sitter, not just an ‘only what is in the job description’. I want to give the type of care that I would want my own fur babies to receive!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years I’ve worked with animal shelters and fostered both cats and dogs, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all temperaments and needs. I’ve also looked after family, friends, and neighbors’ pets—including dogs, cats, and even horses! I’m comfortable with administering medication, as I currently give my own pets their daily treatments. One of my dogs is undergoing cancer care, so I understand the importance of patience, compassion, and consistency when it comes to pets with special needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, snuggles, or attentive care, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. 🐾 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I start and end each day caring for my own pets, which makes it easy to fit in time for yours. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I can be available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or medication, I’m used to planning my day around animals and making sure they get the attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do everything I can to keep them in their normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free. I make sure food, water, and litter (or outdoor breaks) are taken care of, and I always double-check that doors, gates, and windows are secure before leaving. I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own, building trust through patience, kindness, and consistency. Whether it’s making sure medication is given on time, keeping playtime safe, or respecting your home and routines, I aim to give both pets and owners peace of mind. 🐾
“AMAZING!! It was my first time using Rover due to an emergency housing situation, I was so lucky to have found him! Super quick and responsive and took care of my sweet boy so well with so many updates! He was so kind and attentive to my cat, truly an amazing person! He followed everything to a T, would definitely hire again ❤️❤️”
About: Pups or senior doggies, I LOVE them all!! I've been taking care of dogs since I was very young. I've cared for small, medium and large dogs. I've kept track of food and walking routines for multiple dogs at once. I love playing and giving them lots and lots of love!! I'm very responsible and when in charge of a pet they are my number one concern. I treat all pets like my own. Their paws are in good hands here :) My schedule is very open and centered around pet care, so I’m able to provide reliable, timely visits and give each pet plenty of attention. I’m available for multiple check-ins throughout the day and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. I prioritize safety by following your pet’s routine closely and paying attention to their behavior and needs. I’m careful with leashes, doors, and surroundings during walks and visits, and I treat your home with respect. I also provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I have had animals all my life and have 16 years experience at a local boarding kennel. Animal shelter 2 years. Adore both dogs and cats I am currently unemployed. I’m looking for a part time job. I’m home most of the time. I have a fenced back yard. I’m very experienced I have a fenced back yard and regularly feed and provide fresh water for my cats. Bedding is clean. Litter box also. They are inside. Successfully keeping fleas under control.
“Kylie took good care of my two cats over the holidays and was willing to help for additional days when my flight was canceled! I really appreciate her help with drop-in visits for my cats. Recommend working with Kylie!”
About: With over 4 years of professional dog handling/training experience, I aim to keep your furry friend safe and happy! Before we get to my experience, I just want to mention that I am wheelchair bound, so I prefer to stick to walking smaller dogs unless they are well-mannered on a leash! The size of animal is not a concern if a walk is not a requirement! For drop ins, it would require a mostly accessible entrance into the home. I can do a single small step, but otherwise zero-entry would be the most ideal! I have worked alongside a dog trainer who also offers boarding services for the past 4 years, I have volunteered for many animal shelters, including Pet Alliance of Greater Orlando for 2 years, I have been training my own dogs for the past 14 years, including training my current service dog, and I have previously shadowed veterinarians in a clinic environment. I absolutely love both dogs and cats, and I can assure you that they will be in great hands! I truly can’t wait to get in touch with you and meet your fur baby!! I currently work a part-time job, but often get scheduled full-time hours. I usually work between the hours of 8 and 6:30, so I can do night checks on my work days. My guaranteed days off are Monday and Tuesday, and I could complete as many drop ins as needed to keep your fur baby happy and healthy! I want to make sure that your baby stays comfortable, especially with a stranger coming into the home. I am very well versed on animal behaviour and body language, so I will never rush or force an interaction. I plan to follow the same schedule that you would as an owner, so that their schedule remains the same, even without a family member present. I will also make sure that the pet parents are staying updated with photos and messages throughout the day to maintain trust and communication!
“Adreana was amazing with my 4 cats while I was away with my partner for a medical family emergency. She and her partner are responsive and trust worthy and I can’t wait to work with them again in the future!”

Savannah provided prompt and thoughtful care for my cat. I really just needed someone to check the food and litter box but she went way above that. Giving pets and brushings to her and even going so far as to cleaning up a mess my cat made! I will happily book Savannah again for my next trip!
Monica is a star, I cannot express how much I appreciate all she does for the kitties and for us. We get to enjoy our time away from home so much more just because of her and what she does. I'm not trying to be exaggerated. I'm just saying that I can see the difference when I have tried other sitters and they don't come even close to her. Thanks!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Bellwood is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
