Ericka is amazing! She is so kind and loving She is always on time and flexible with last minute changes. She has the patience of an actual saint. In just a few days, she got my extremely nervous dog comfortable enough to approach her. It was an absolute miracle!

EXPERIENCE: I rescued my 3rd dog and she was pregnant! I fostered 4 puppies till they were 2 months old & they recently found there forever homes! 🤍 I have 3 dogs and 6 cats(which are outside or in there own room) I’ve taken care my animals since I was 13. I love being someone any pet can trust and be comfortable with, & love meeting new animals! 🐶🐱💘💘 Since I’m home from college right now, pet care is my top priority! My schedule is completely open, giving me full flexibility to care for your pets at any time. Whether you need early morning walks, middle-of-the-day check-ins, or overnight weekend boarding, I have plenty of free time to give your furry friend the dedicated attention, playtime, and love they deserve every day. I offer a safe, spacious, and welcoming home environment! We have a large, fully fenced yard perfect for outdoor play. My own dogs are very friendly, love company, and get along great with visitors. I also have six rescued cats who are kept completely separate in their own designated room to ensure everyone stays relaxed and comfortable. My house is fully stocked with treats, food, and two crates available if your pet needs quiet time or structured rests.

About: Hi! I'm an experienced pet sitter with over 6 years of cat-sitting experience and 8 years of caring for small dogs for family and friends. I've also been a cat owner for more than 20 years, so I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or loves quiet companionship, I'll make sure they receive the care, attention, and patience they deserve. I'm happy to follow your pet's normal routine, provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer simple medications if needed, and, of course, give plenty of love and affection. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing pets feel safe, happy, and thrive while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I'll treat your pets as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I work full-time during the day, but I am available for pet care visits early mornings, late afternoons, and evenings. I am especially available on Mondays with flexible availability throughout the day. I understand how important consistency and attention are for cats, and I will make sure your cat receives the care, companionship, and routine they need while you're away. I’m happy to provide updates, follow your instructions, and give your cat the patience and affection they deserve. Your cat’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and caring environment where your cat can feel secure and relaxed. I will follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own.

Sandy is the most loving care giver in the world. She sent us a text and often a picture of how our dogs were doing each day. During the holidays she brought in packages and even our garbage cans that were blowing in the street. I would highly recommend Sandy for all your dog care needs!

I am super happy I found Alex. He cared for my two cats, dropping by throughout the weekend while I was away. He sent me lots of great photos of them playing and hanging out, and regular updates as he took care of their needs. Super communicative, even offered to do a couple things I hadn’t thought of. I’m always super nervous to leave my pets with someone, especially someone new, but Alex helped me feel comfortable that they were getting good care.

Joanne took care of our 3 pets during drop-in visits over a 3-day period. Joanne showed great care while feeding and interacting with Fiona (our 10 year old pit bull), Davlin (our 17 year old frail cat), as well as Moshie (our shy 13 year old cat). Joanne provided detailed information regarding her care for the individual needs of each of our pets during each visit. She also provided numerous photos of each animal while visiting. Prior to her drop-ins, Joanne came over for a Meet and Greet in order to go over details while visiting, as well as getting to meet our pets. In addition, Joanne kept us up to date with each interaction while visiting and any questions or concerns that she or we may have had during the visits. Without a doubt Joanne demonstrates a tremendous amount of care and professionalism in every aspect while working with us and caring for Fiona, Davlin and Moshie. I look forward to having Joanne care for our pets in the future, as well as highly recommend anyone who has a need for someone to care for their pets.

I’ve owned dogs for over 10 years in my family, I’ve dogsat before in a clients home for a week, whom was also a diabetic, so I had to also give insulin. I am a huge dog lover, and always love being around them. We can go to dog parks, take plenty of walks around the neighborhood, and have great treats! I hope to provide great hospitality for your dog or dogs, and have them enjoy their time just as much as I would be. By letting me watch your dogs, I will make sure we all have the best time together! **please ask about availability during the week as the options on here aren’t the best** I have a full time job during the week.. On weekdays I am usually available on Mondays after 6pm, Tuesdays after 5pm, and Fridays after 5pm! Weekends vary, I’ll do my best to keep my calendar updated! It depends on what the client wants me to do to care for them! Making sure they go to the bathroom, hanging out with them inside, taking them for a walk, etc. overall, I like to make sure the pet(s) are getting attention and being entertained.

This was our second time with Steff caring for our two (very needy) sphynx cats and, once again, she was very attentive and professional. As other reviews have noted, Steff loves animals and she provided great care while maintaining frequent communication while we were on vacation. Steff sent lots of photos of the cats at play, which is always reassuring when you are thousands of miles away, and they clearly enjoy her company. We highly recommend Steff to take care of your pet or pets and we hope to use her next time we are away.

Nadine is the best! This is our second time having her look after our two senior dachshunds (come January, they’ll be 15 and 17) and our 22 year old conure. All three were remembered her from her previous stint caring for them, and they were thrilled to see Nadine again. In addition to normal duties, Nadine went above and beyond by cleaning up and replacing pee pads used by my old man and by lifting him up and down the back stoop every time he went out. I will absolutely use Nadine again.

Mona is extremely professional and has been very easy to work with. She treats our puppy Mia as if she was her own. I always feel better after I get Mona’s updates in the morning on how our little girl is doing. I will continue to use Mona for daily drop-ins and I would refer her to anyone I know.

Hannah was fantastic! She came three times a day, was always reliable and trustworthy, and showed up even in bad weather. We have a large dog (over 100 lbs) and felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. We’ve used Hannah multiple times and never worry when we’re away. Highly recommend!

About: Being around animals brings me joy and I want them to feel at ease because I know they are missing their pet parents. My calm, patient and kind personality will be comforting to your pet. I’ve given medications and have cared for many types of dogs and cats as well as chickens, birds and a duck! I am also very conscientious about safety, being on time and keeping your home tidy. When you return home it will be as you left it and to happy pets! I am recently retired, therefore my schedule is flexible daily, including weekends and overnights. Let me know what your needs are and I will do my best to accommodate. I can pet sit in your home. I do not have my own pets but family members I live with have 2 cats that I often help care for. Safety and caring for your home and pets are important to me. You will return to a tidy home. I am happy to discuss how to accommodate your needs.

Ericka was absolutely wonderful! I needed a cat sitter last minute, and she stepped in while I was on the other side of the world. She was extremely responsive, caring, and communicative, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated the extra time and attention she gave Mylo—she clearly genuinely cared about him. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend Ericka to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter! ❤️ 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Brightwaters on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 9,676 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Brightwaters. 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 Brightwaters. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
