About: Besides caring for my dogs I have a lot of experience. I’ve fostered old dogs until they happily passed. I’ve administered medication. I’m also a medical assistant so injections are not scary. I work full time and am available for dog walks and drop-in visits during evenings and on weekends. I plan visits around my work schedule so I can give your pet dedicated attention without rushing. Boarding may also be available on select dates, please message me to discuss your pet’s routine and the care you need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions while maintaining a clean and secure environment. I have friendly resident dogs, and introductions will be supervised to make sure everyone is comfortable. I’ll also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.

“Audra was as sweet as can be, and just as wonderful as can be to my baby! Although my dog is standoffish and not as warm to strangers, Audra was able to get her to be friendly and polite during her stay. I would strongly recommend her as a sitter any day of the week!”

“Brandee is the absolute best! She replied to my booking so fast. Eventhough she wasn't available for the entire booking, she actively searched for friends who could help. Other sitters just turned down the request, or didn't reply. We agreed on some days that would work. The request was to care for tiny, sick, shelter kittens. The job was not easy, it involved an application to the animal shelter, wearing full protective gear, coordinating with the foster coordinator, and then caring for sick kittens. She handled it like a pro! She found her way in and worked with the kittens and even sent pictures. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

About: As a proud dog mom, I understand that pets aren’t just animals — they’re family. Caring for my own dog has taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of routine, exercise, and lots of love. From daily walks and playtime to recognizing subtle changes in behavior, I’m attentive to every detail that keeps a pup happy and healthy. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — with safety, affection, and reliable care at the forefront. I’m currently in the military so my schedule is very unpredictable. There are times when I have significant time off allowing much flexibility or there are times when my availability will become much limited.That said, I’m big on communication and keeping my calendar updated. I only take bookings when I know I can fully show up and give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. If I commit to you, you can count on me! When I’m caring for a pet in their home, safety is always my top priority! I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure before and after walks, and I’m careful to prevent any escape risks. I follow all instructions exactly as given — feeding routines, medication schedules, crate use, and house rules — to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I’m mindful of potential hazards like foods left out, small objects on the floor, or anything that could be chewed or swallowed. During walks, I use secure leashing practices and stay alert to surroundings, other animals, and traffic. I also provide regular updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. Your home will be respected, and your pet will be cared for like family. ((:

About: Growing up in our house meant being around all sorts of animals. Anywhere from, dogs, cats, reptiles, small critters, and big critters. Being the oldest I often took care of my siblings pets. Which is how I became well acquainted with rearing puppies and kittens. It also lead me to have a love for small animals such as rats. I'm not easily spooked by animals. I work 8 hour shifts and am available from the mornings till 12. My work schedule is 12-8p.m If your pets are OK with that schedule I'm available for house sitting. My current days off are Wednesdays and Thursdays. I always like to introduce myself to new pets, by letting them sniff me for a bit. Most dogs and cats love being spoken to softly that usually helps with easing a pet.

About: I have owned dogs the majority of my life from big to small. I have had 2 cats in my life for the past 9 years as well. I am very knowledgeable in training and taking care of animals as its a big passion of mine to connect with animals, a long term goal is to become a Marine Biologist! I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I work part time at Chuze Fitness for about 3-4 days a week. I go to the gym about 3-4 times a week for 2 hours for each session. I enjoy exploring foods a lot and going to the movies! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I feed my dogs and cats twice a day. I usually take my dogs out on an hour walk a day when it’s not too hot for them. I try and take my dogs to the dog park 2-3 times a month for some friendly exposure. My cats are indoor cats so they just play around with their cat tree and sleep as they don’t enjoy being outside.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old. Not only have I been responsible for my own family pets, but I’ve also helped care for the pets of friends and family members over the years. These experiences have taught me the importance of being reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m committed to following your pet’s routine, providing plenty of attention and care, and maintaining a safe environment. I communicate clearly, follow instructions carefully, and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind.I will treat your pets with the same care and affection that I give my own. I’m available all day Monday through Saturday. On Sundays, I’m available after 1:00 PM. I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. Safety is a nonnegotiable and I will do everything I can to keep your pet safe. When it comes to instructions for your animal, I will ask as many questions as I can do to ensure everything is planned out to your liking. When it comes to trust with animals I will give them all the space they need to get use to me.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life. From cats to dogs and even a goat, I’ve experienced it all. My family and I regularly house puppies and kittens from Tijuana, Mexico in our home until we are able to find them their forever home here in the states, so it is safe to say that I am well equipped for the needs of your furry friend(s). As someone who drives to the beach for a sunset walk on a daily basis I’d love to be able to bring your friend(s) along for the ride ☺️ I currently am working Monday - Wednesday full time but am open every other day of the week as I am still in school. That being said, I would be completely open to care for your pet(s) and give them the same attention they’d receive at home Thursday- Sunday! I have ample space for your pet(s) with a large backyard that includes grass and a large fence to ensure that they are safe. I’ve always made it a habit to regularly check on pets’ food / water and in a cats case, their litter box. If your cat needs a relaxing environment with endless amounts of pets I can do that. If your dog / puppy needs a long walk or even a run, I can do that. I understand that leaving your pets with a stranger can be nerve racking but rest assured that they’re in good hands 🙌

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover and would love to help care for your pets while you're away! I offer overnight house sitting and drop-in visits, whether your pet needs some company, playtime, walks, cuddles, or just someone to make sure they're happy and comfortable. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time at home with your pets throughout the day. Whether that means taking play breaks, heading out for walks, or providing a warm lap to curl up on while I work, I'm always happy to have a furry coworker! I know every animal has their own unique personality, and I love getting to know their individual quirks. I understand how important it is to respect their boundaries, be patient, and let them build trust at their own pace. Whether you've got an energetic pup, a cuddly cat, or a shy, independent little companion, I'm happy to follow their lead and stick to whatever routine makes them feel most comfortable. I'm also very respectful of people's homes and happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you're away so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands! I recently finished school and am currently applying to jobs, so my schedule is very flexible! I'm available for daytime walks, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable. I’m tidy, respectful, and follow your instructions closely—whether that means administering meds, sticking to a walk routine, or just keeping your pet company. I’m also happy to send photo updates!

About: I've been surrounded by animals for 30+ years. My experience runs deep and hands-on. I spent a year working on a farm. Fun fact: I've successfully delivered three litters of puppies — every single one survived and thrived. At home I have two cats and two large senior dogs, all fixed, up to date on their meds, and flea-free. Caring for senior pups every day means I know firsthand how to handle slower walks, medication schedules, achy joints, and the extra patience and gentleness our older companions deserve. What you can count on from me: reliability, genuine love for your animal, and someone who treats your pet like the soul they are. I'll follow your routines to the letter, keep you updated, and make sure your furry family member feels safe and happy while you're away. So whether your pet is a bouncy puppy, a dignified senior, or somewhere in between, I'm calm, confident, and capable in just about any situation. I'd be honored to care for yours. 🐾 Pet care isn't an afterthought for me — it's woven into my daily rhythm. I already care for my own animals every morning and evening, so feeding times, litter scooping, medication schedules, and check-ins are simply part of how my days are built. Adding your pet to that routine feels natural, not like an extra errand. I keep a flexible schedule that lets me be reliably present throughout the day, so I can accommodate everything from quick drop-in visits to longer sessions and consistent walking times. I'm happy to match whatever cadence your pet is used to, whether that's a strict feeding window, mid-day company, or a steady morning-and-evening routine. Most importantly, I show up when I say I will. You'll always know your pet is being cared for on schedule, every time. In my own home, your pet joins a calm, animal-friendly environment with my two cats and two gentle senior dogs — all fixed, vaccinated, on their meds, and flea-free. I keep food, medications, and anything hazardous safely out of reach, maintain clean litter and feeding areas, and can give a nervous or new pet their own quiet space to settle in. If separation is ever needed, I'm comfortable crating or sectioning off rooms so every animal stays safe and stress-free. In your home, I treat your space with the same care I'd want for my own. I follow your instructions exactly — entry, alarm codes, feeding, litter, medication, and lock-up — and I keep doors and gates secured so there's no risk of a pet slipping out. I stay alert to your pet's behavior and comfort, and I'll always reach out right away if anything seems off. Whether at my place or yours, my goal is simple: a safe, clean, loving environment where your pet feels secure and you feel completely at ease. 🐾

Audra took such wonderful care of our two senior cats while we were away! She arrived at the agreed times, sent photos and thoughtful updates after each visit, and was always responsive to our messages. She handled their medication routine with care, cleaned up their many messes, and left everything looking great when we returned. Audra was so incredibly sweet with our boys! She spent extra time giving them love and attention and even offered to help with other things she noticed. It was clear how comfortable they became with her when our shyer boy even started requesting belly rubs! We’re so glad we found Audra and will be booking her again soon.

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Jovi. She consistently goes above and beyond and I genuinely don’t know what I would do without her at this point. Having 4 cats can be a lot… especially when I’m away but knowing Jovi is taking care of them gives me complete peace of mind She doesn’t just stop at making sure they’re fed and taken care of… she treats my cats and my home like they’re her own!!! During this stay, she brought in a HUGE delivery for me that I definitely wasn’t expecting her to have to deal with, went out and bought cat litter when it was needed, and even cleaned up around the house. I came home and somehow my house was cleaner than when I left!!! 😭😭😭 None of that was expected or asked of her, which just shows the kind of person she is. What means the most to me is how much my cats genuinely love her. All 4 of them are comfortable with her, and even my extremely shy cat, who normally takes forever to warm up to people, has started trusting her and coming around her more. That alone says so much!! Cats know when someone is patient gentle and genuinely cares about them, and it’s obvious that they feel completely safe with Jovi 💖 She pays attention to the little things keeps me updated, and always makes me feel like my babies are in the best hands possible. I never have to worry about whether they’re getting enough attention or whether something at home is being overlooked. She takes care of things without me even having to ask 🥹🥹 Finding someone you can completely trust with your pets & your home is rare, especially when your pets mean as much to you as mine do to me. Jovi has become someone I can genuinely rely on and that is priceless 😭😭😭🫶🏽 I’m beyond grateful I found her and would recommend her over and over again. If you’re lucky enough to have Jovi available to watch your pets, book her. Your babies will absolutely love her!!!!

Heather took great care of our 2 cats and pet hen while we were away. Our cats quickly took to her kind and calm demeanor during the meet and greet. She provided a written note with fun pictures for every visit. We looked forward to the updates, which helped alleviate stress of our travel. She handled a couple requests that came up and was very responsive throughout. We arrived back to happy, well cared for pets and a tidy home! We highly recommend Heather, and absolutely will re-book in the future.

Jaime was such a heaven sent! She was so accommodating to my requests (even a last minute request to drop in a day extra) and sent our family so many photos of our animals! She responded super quickly to my texts and gave me such peace of mind. Prior to booking she came and did an initial visit to meet our animals so they would be comfortable with her presence. Our animals, with all their quirks, took to her so quickly and looked full of joy when she was visiting. She even helped with obedience training for our dog so her schedule wasn’t interrupted! Our family will definitely be rebooking Jaime on our next trip so we know our animals are safe, provided for, and loved while we are away. Thank you so so much Ms. Jaime!!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Boal

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Boal is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $39 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.

As of October 2026, there are 3,943 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Boal. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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 , 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.
