“Megan was an amazing caretaker of my cat. She was very attentive to detail and her visits provided the comfort my senior cat was longing for while I was away for six nights. I’m looking forward to provide her services whenever I’ll be out of town.”
About: I’ve recently started pet sitting for friends and family and found it very rewarding. At home I am use to looking after my dog Remy who is an 90 pound poodle mix along with my cat Mia. They both are a handful but they are members of the family that have prepared me for looking after others. I am currently attending graduate school and am looking to start work near my home. I am always looking for opportunities to pay my way while helping others. I will work to make time in my schedule to accommodate yours! I always try and be friendly and patient. At home my dog Remy takes medication nightly while also having quiet the personality. His boisterous nature can be hard to rein in but when he is given his time he settles.
“Sarah did an amazing job looking after my ~9 month old cat while I was gone! She sent lots of photo updates to let me know that things were okay, and the my baby seemed very well taken care of. She cleaned the litter box and gave her lots of fresh water, just like I asked. I would definitely use her services again!”
“So glad we found Bayley as our husky's new friend! Our pup took to her right away when Bayley dropped in to give her dinner. We're looking forward to her boarding at Bayley's in a few weeks.”
“Lidia was our dog sitter for the Labor Day weekend and did a wonderful job! She visited our pups exactly as scheduled and made sure they were well cared for — playing with them, letting them out, refilling their water bowls, and feeding them. She gave them lots of love and attention, which made us feel at ease while we were away. One of the highlights was how well she kept us updated. Lidia sent us plenty of pictures from every visit and shared regular updates on how our dogs were doing. We felt completely confident that they were in great hands. We truly enjoyed having Lidia take care of our dogs, and they clearly enjoyed her too! We will definitely be booking her again.”
“Ariel did a great job taking care of our two cats. She was very respectful of our space and reliably communicated with me about our shy cat who likes to hide. We’d be happy to book her again!”
“Hannah was great. We booked her for a weekend to watch our cats, one of which has special needs. She took great care of them and made sure he got his medicine. Will definitely book her again.”
“Tabitha was great. We were leaving our kitties for the first time ever, and it was for over a week, so I was feeling pretty anxious. Tabitha put me at ease from our first meeting. She was communicative, timely, and did everything we needed. Very appreciative of her!”
About: I have dogs since I’m a teenager and currently I own a lovely golden doodle. I'm committed to giving each pet the individualized care they require with compassion and attention. I put their comfort and wellbeing first by keeping up with their routines, providing lots of fun, and making sure they know they are loved and safe while in my care. I’m currently studying online so I have plenty of time to be there for your dog! I have a pretty flexible schedule so I’d be able to provide dog care anytime you need! My apartment complex have a dog park! I also have a sweet golden doodle that loves playing so she can gives you dog company and make them busy!
“Rebecca is an amazing cat sitter! She is so kind, attentive, and incredibly responsive. When my cat's automatic feeder stopped working, she handled it right away—making sure my cat got fed and fixing the machine herself. Knowing my cat was in such caring and capable hands made my trip stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch care!”
“Christopher was amazing! Our anxious cat came right out to him and loved him! His updates were detailed and he kept us updated on everything! I’ll definitely book again!”
“Courtney was great with our 9 year old German Shepherd. Very responsible, professional and timely with drop-ins. Loved the notifications and pictures. Highly recommend and will derfinetly use Courtney as our dog sitter again!”
“Grace did a very good job of feeding and playing with our cat and giving him affection. Our cat is very fond of her so we felt completely reassured that our cat was happy when we were gone.”
About: I have a Chihuahua dog who is 6 years old, I have been assisting her in two births, I have been with her mother. and I have another male dog that is 4 years old. I love them with all my heart and I would like to work helping dogs who have no way to go out while their owners work. I take my dogs out to relieve themselves three times a day, and once for a long walk.One day they eat chicken, the next day they eat eggs, and I mix it with their dog food. I take my dogs outside to walk and do their physical business. I do this 3 to 4 times a day. And since they are chihuahuas, they like to be with one, they are next to me when I am watching TV. They only eat boiled eggs , chicken and dog food.
About: I’ve been a pet owner most of my life and have taken care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I am the one they always rely on to care for there’s pets and I hope to do the same for you. I’m currently looking for a job, so I will have lots of free time to care for your pets, and with flexible scheduling to what days you might need. Caring for pets at the client’s home I would make sure to ask where they keep the food, treats, toys for the pets, and cleaning supplies just in case if they make an accident by chance.

Stephanie did a fantastic job watching Ollie again! I always feel so comfortable knowing he’s in her care, and it’s clear that Ollie feels the same way. He is really starting to fall in love with her, which means so much to me. She is attentive, dependable, and genuinely caring with him, and I never have to worry while I’m away. It’s such a relief to have someone I completely trust with my boy. I will absolutely continue booking Stephanie whenever I need someone to care for Ollie. Highly recommend her!
Brittany was fantastic as my cat sitter taking great care of my "Babba" as I just returned from a 5 day trip. Her love of cats, attention to details, promptness, tidiness, etc., etc. was exceptional! She is also so nice and easy going. I highly recommend Brittany for anyone looking for a reliable, trusting, kitty loving sitter.

Hannah was ACTUALLY the best!! We went on a week long trip and booked last min but Hannah was extremely flexible. I got SO excited every evening to see our cat photos because Hannah always took the best photos of them playing and being silly little beans. She always took like 10 photos and sent us lovely messages on how the cats were doing and made sure to play with them.
Finding someone you trust to care for your pets is never easy, but Quintunya has been everything I could have hoped for in a pet sitter. She has been caring for my two cats, Pudd and Puma, for the past year. From the very beginning, Quintunya has treated my fur babies with so much love, patience, and kindness. It's obvious that she genuinely cares about them. Knowing that Pudd and Puma are safe, loved, and receiving so much attention while I'm away gives me incredible peace of mind. If you're looking for someone who will care for your pets as if they were her own, I wholeheartedly recommend Quintunya. She is truly one of a kind, and Pudd, Puma, and I are so lucky to have her in our lives.
My wife and I have had Sylvia petsit for us a few times now, from a couple days to a week or more. Everytime she is thoughtful, communicative, and addresses our wide array of pets needs with the utmost professionalism. Having 3 cats and a few reptiles with different care routines means we ask a lot but she always steps up to the plate. Sylvia really goes above and beyond and we couldn’t recommend her more!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Brooklyn on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
