My two cats adore Maegan - and she’s so conscientious and kind. Always above and beyond!! Even the cranky super senior old lady comes out to say hi to her - and she hates everyone.

This was our 3rd booking with Julie and we were so happy she was available on a shorter notice that we’d have preferred. Our boys eagerly await her visits! I think they look forward to us going on trips just so they can see their friend Julie!

I’m so glad Sasha was able to watch Stormy (my cat)! She always responded promptly, was precise in following care instructions, and Stormy seemed to enjoy her visits too :)

We hired Katie for our four cats and she is a pro! Was on time for each booking, communicated with us throughout, sent many excellent photos and our typically shy kitties warmed right up to her. Highly recommend Katie!

Grace is awesome! She is very communicative and happily worked with my random schedule. I couldn’t be happier. And my dog loves Grace as well. He is all about people but he knows his favorites and Grace is one of them. She is great to work with!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was 16 years old. I’ve worked with a range of young dogs to senior dogs. Taking them on walks and playing with them for extended periods of time. I am currently not working a full-time job, but I am looking for part-time careers. As of right now I have a wide open schedule to care for pets. I would not take on a job that would not give me plenty of time to care for and entertain any animals under my care. I have plenty of experience with crating animals when not in the home. As well as having animals on a leash at all times that they are not in the home and the area is not fenced in. My cat at home is an indoor cat, except for the occasional time she gets in her “Catio” outside under supervision.

About: I have been working as a dog walker since my early adolescence and have experience with all different sizes and breeds. I am an avid dog lover, and have one of my own! I know how much energy dogs can have and how much attention they deserve, and will treat yours as family. I am a work in the film industry on a freelance basis, which often means I have periods open time. I am looking to fill in the gaps with the joy of taking care of dogs and cats! I work to make sure that your pet feels comfortable and safe around me in whichever environment that may be. We will establish a relationship with one another, and once there is trust we will go about the daily routine that you have in place for them!

About: Proud dog-owner for the past three years! Grew up in a house cosplaying as a petting zoo- cats, frogs, dogs, hamsters, you name it! Extremely flexible, willing to adapt, and excited to get to know your pets! Just a teacher trying to make enough money to have a career of not making enough money #fortheloveofthegame I currently teach full-time, so evenings and weekends provide the most availability. However, with summer around the corner, my availability will be expanding! After mid-May, I will have availability from 3:30 PM onwards. I currently live in an apartment in West Harlem with my 4-year old mutt. She warms up to most doggos, but an intro would be necessary! The apartment is near multiple parks, and I am located in a walkable area.

Helena took fantastic care of my cat Liuliu. She kept me posted on the feeding schedule, shared what she noticed about my cat and apartment, and asked extremely thoughtful questions. Liuliu had a hard time adjusting to staying with friends during my leave, but Helena's steady, gentle presence helped her settle right back in. It brought me great comfort to see how well Liuliu was doing with Helena around, and I loved all the pictures and videos she shared along the way.

Hannah took excellent care of Scotch. She followed all instructions and if I had to reach for a single criticism it would be that now my cat expects me to be more generous with her treats. Hannah even went the extra step and asked if I wanted her to vacuum up the litter that my cat tends to kick out of the box.

Melinda did an excellent job taking care of Norman during our time away! This was our second time booking with her and she was fantastic from start to finish. Communication was excellent, and we received detailed updates along with plenty of cute photos from the daily drop-in visits. Norman is a lovable and sweet guy, but he can be a little shy around other people. Melinda was so patient with him and made sure he felt comfortable, and we came home to a very happy cat! She followed his normal routine, made sure he was fed and had fresh water, cleaned his litter box, and spent time playing with him. She genuinely cared about making sure Norman was happy and well taken care of. Melinda is a true professional and we always feel completely comfortable knowing Norman is in great hands with her. We will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Brighton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Brighton on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 5,036 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Brighton. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brighton. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
