About: I’m particularly fond of taking care of the most finicky and quirky pets with care, firmness and patience. Skilled at administering meds, going for long walks and spoiling with treats. I work per diem, so I have a lot of time to spare with your pet! Available for boarding on the weekends anytime after 2pm. I have a cat tower at home that’s strategically placed in front of a birdfeeder attached to the window. It makes for an excellent front row seat for hours of birdwatching.
About: I am a big animal lover! I have had many animals growing up (cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pig & ducks!) I also pet sit for a family who had 3 cats, I have worked with them for 1 year now. I currently have an orange tabby named Theo, he is my world. Me & my spouse adopted him 2 years ago from the Humane Society & he has been the perfect addition to our little family. I am here to love your fur babies! Please feel reach out me with any questions. Thanks! I work a regular full time job. I have fostered 2 cats before and it was a wonderful experience. Most of the time spent with the cats, would be in the morning and all evening long after work to take care and love them. I have an apartment building that is very secure, you can only gain access the to building if you have a key fob. The animals have plenty of space to move around and be free, or sleep super comfy on my furniture.
“I’d highly recommend Rachel! She took care of my mom and my cats while we were away for a couple of days. She kept us updated on how they were doing each day and sent us picture updates.”
“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.”
“Leah is the best! On top of taking care of my skittish and curmudgeonly cats perfectly, she takes the best photos and has a great sense of humor. I would trust her with my kitties again anytime.”
“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!”
“Jun was super responsive and great with our cat Mobi. Mobi is usually extremely shy but not with Jun which says a lot! Would gladly work with Jun again:)”
“Once again Kelli is amazing! She is so kind and stepped in when we had a no show. I am so thankful we found her and our pup adores her. Thanks again Kelli!! You are a rockstar!”
“Olivia was very responsive and did a great job watching our 2 cats! She followed all directions and was thorough, sending pics and playing and loving on our kitties who really seemed to enjoy their time with her :)”
About: I’ve always grown up with dogs and cats, so I have lots of experience caring for both. My mom currently has 3 lab mixes and one of them is, unfortunately, getting up there in age and when I visit her, I try to help as much as I can, so I have experience caring for older dogs. I have one dog of my own who is my best friend! He’s a 6 year old black lab with nonstop enthusiasm for walks, chasing squirrels, and sniffing his way through every park in Baltimore City. He is also a fearless rat patroller! We have had him since he was a puppy, so I have been able to get experience training him and learning to work with, and love, all of his quirks, and I’m excited to do the same for your pets! I work a normal 40 hr work week, but am happy to fill in to help with your pet needs. I work from home mostly, so outside of my occasional in office days, I’m available to be with your pets through the day during the week! I am always available on the weekends. I have my own dog and a partner who works occasional odd or long hours, so there are times I will have to head back home to check on my own pup! In my own home, our dog has free range over the house! He rules the place and, unfortunately, doesn’t get along with other dogs, so I’m not able to offer boarding services in my home. While I’m at yours or with your pet, I will treat them like my own - lots of love, occasional treats (as many as are okay with you), and whatever else they may need! I’d love to have detailed instructions on how to care for your pet, so I can make sure they are as comfortable as they can be!
“Brianna is an amazing Catsitter! Not only did my cats really love her but she was amazing at sending updates and being attentive towards them and their needs! Will definitely be booking her again for my future cat sitting needs!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I had a dog for 16 years and cats for 10 years. I love animals and taking care of them. Aside from my love of animals, I am looking to get exercise in, so doing long dog walks are something I am looking forward to. I can provide services any time between 6am-6pm M-F I have 4 cats, but live in a 3 story townhome with an extra bedroom just for my cats. I have plenty of space and can pet sit small dogs or cats
About: I can care for all ages. Your baby will be one happy camper with me. I have 5 cats and 3 dogs at home so I know pets. I have two cool cats with health issues so i Can medicate if needed. Im free alot of the time so I can take care of your furry family. I dont mind doing hoildays or weekends! Im available most of the time I can feed, walk and play with your furry family members and i can medicate if needed too. We all need someone that can be there when vacation comes or just daily life comes up!
“Rebeccah was excellent! She asked really great questions with our meet and greet to ensure she understood Phoebe’s needs and wants. The Rover cards were detailed and gave me comfort to know she was in good hands. Will definitely book with Rebeccah in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was a kid. I grew up with a tabby cat who was with the family for 16 years. I also have a small terrier mix named Jackson who I’ve raised since he was 8 weeks old—he’s 9 now! I also have my baby girl Nestle, who is a 2 year old aussiemo mix. She loves to play, cuddle, EAT, and go on long walks. She also loves to play with other animals and would welcome your pet with open paws! I currently work remotely, so I am home and available to care for your pet everyday. I take my own dog out every 2 hours for fresh air & a potty break. We also get some fun time in between that with the on-site dog park my apartment has. I have plenty of space in my house for pets to reside comfortably. I also have room to crate them if needed. There is a fenced in back yard where I live that will also be great for some fun running around and zoomies
“Jojo was great! She checked on our anxious Savannah cat both morning and night when we were out of town for the weekend. She was able to get him out of hiding to give him both of his oral liquid medications via syringe. She sent a couple pics with each check in, and was prompt in responding to any of our messages. She also was sweet enough to stop by the week before for a quick meet and greet, too.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Brooklyn
Stephanie did a stellar job in taking care of my cat for a couple of days. She provided me with lots of pictures as well as a detailed report of her visit, which collectively gave me tremendous peace of mind. Stephanie is also a very conscientious sitter and made sure every one of my cat’s needs were addressed. I would not hesitate to use her again in the future, or recommend her to any of my friends seeking a dependable, responsible and competent pet sitter. What a great experience!
Bri was absolutely wonderful from start to finish! She asked good questions and took notes when we met initially and was excited to meet the cats. I have a gregarious kitty and a very shy kitty and I was a little worried about leaving him with a stranger, but Bri met him were he was and earned his trust to where he was coming out to the common areas instead of hiding. She even helped feed our stray cat! Can't praise her highly enough. Thank you so much!
Alex was absoltuely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were doing well and were comfortable. She kept their litter box super clean and was always trying to find them when they were being shy to make sure they were doing good. I also very much appreciate the daily photos and thorough updates!
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.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Brooklyn is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 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.
As of November 2026, there are 1,177 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Brooklyn. 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 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.

- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 89% 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 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.
