“Taylor checked in on my cat twice while I was away for a few days and kept me updated each time. I came home and my cat, who's known for having an attitude after a few days away, was super chill and acted like no one had ever left! So glad I found Taylor, highly recommend.”
“Dale was a fantastic sitter for our kitty! He was super resourceful when there was an issue with our door on the first day. Dale is a great communicator and often shared notes and pictures that made me smile and laugh. I had no doubt Lucy was well taken care of and entertained! We plan to use him again in the future when we need a sitter.”
“Molly was a great sitter!! My cat is super shy, but Molly was very persistent and patient with him. This proved incredibly important when I got home, because my cat doesn’t like it when I’m away for more than a day, and he’s prone to hiding for a few hours when I return. But since Molly was so good and attentive with him, he was so so quick to bounce back and be back to his regular self :) I’d highly recommend Molly!!”
“This was our first time leaving our kitten at the care of someone he didn’t know yet. We felt very reassured throughout the process and received photos and notes about his time. We came back to a happy kitty so we’re so glad! Thank you do much!”
“Avary was an amazing sitter for our dog, Luca! When Luca got stressed while we were away on vacation, Avary went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and cared for, which gave us real peace of mind. I highly recommend Avary for your pet care needs, and I will absolutely be booking again for all of our pets.”
“Kate was terrific! From the moment Bob met her he responded positively to her calm & assertive demeanor. She is one of very few walkers we've met who knows how to lead a dog on a leash without any tension or letting the dog sidewalk surf. We were very happy to know Bob was in capable, conscientious and caring hands. Would definitely use Kate for future walking & feeding needs!”
“Just days after moving into a new home I had to travel for several days to attend a funeral. While I was away Alexandra dropped in twice a day to take care of my two disoriented and stressed cats. They both warmed to her very quickly - including my male cat who is stranger shy in the best of situations. Alexandra’s presence, and my cats’ quick acceptance of her, gave me the freedom to not worry about them during what was already a very stressful time for all of us. I would highly recommend Alexandra for your pet care needs.”
“Vivian was so attentive to my cat and very communicative. I love the pictures she sent of my cat while I was away. Would definitely recommend Vivian to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
“James was very communicative and did an excellent job taking care of my two very shy cats while I was away for Christmas. I appreciated the daily updates and that he stopped by to get the tour of my apartment beforehand!”
“Laura was fantastic with Ember! She took great care of her and adapted to her needs, even hand feeding her kibbles when Ember wouldn't eat 🥹. Ember had a great time with Laura and was a happy dog when I got back from my trip. I highly recommend Laura and would book her again!”
“I’m so glad my babies had her dropping in on them while I was/am away. I knew from our meeting that she would be a kind spirit to allow into my home and I’m glad she made herself available for us.”
“Harriet was amazing! She was communicative, responsive, and alleviated all my concerns at leaving my skittish kitty for the first time. Highly recommend and I won’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Stefanie is very reliable and responsive! This is our second time booking with her, and we always feel comfortable that she’s looking after our two cats well. We highly recommend her services!”
“Amazing !!!! 10/10 would re-book. I needed a sitter last min and Tamim went above and beyond to accommodate me. Tamim gave detailed updates with lots of photos and made sure the 30 min drop in visit was filled with affection. My fur babies were very happy !!!”
“Liudmyla is a perfect cat person through and through. She completely understands how to take care of cats and gives them everything they need. There is not a better person in Brooklyn to take care of your loved one!”
“Elizabeth was great! She was able to fill in cat sitting last minute which we really appreciated, and was super communicative and sweet w our kitty. Thank you Elizabeth!”

Olivia was so amazing our 2 cats while we were away! Especially with one of them being a 4month kitten, and needing extra attention. She even agreed to our last minute extra day request when our flight home was delayed. She sent us detailed daily updates, did their separate feedings as we would at home, and sent a lot of amazing photos of them which we always love ❤️ We felt so assured that our cats were with someone who gives them lots of love and attention. We’ll definitely be asking Olivia again for our next trip ☺️
Sebastian has always been wonderful in caring for and getting along with our cat Tuna (a total diva) but for the first time we needed someone to take care of both Tuna and our elderly dog, Mira (a genuine sweetheart). Sebastian was so accommodating with us to learn Mira’s routine before we left town. While we were away, Sebastian was again wonderful with both pets but Mira especially adored him. He sent great updates and was prompt in responding to our questions. Sebastian’s care, compassion, and communication are why he’s our #1 choice for pet care. We were so at ease while we were away. We don’t have a real vacation unless Sebastian is watching our pets! Thank you! =^..^=
Kseniia took great care of my cat while I was away. She was reliable, friendly, and made sure all of his daily needs were taken care of. She was communicative throughout the stay and kept everything running smoothly, which I appreciated. I came home to a well-cared-for cat, and I would recommend Kseniia to anyone looking for a dependable and responsible cat sitter.
Kira was easy to communicate with and thorough with her cat care. I loved the photos she shared because I could tell my cats were comfortable around her, even though they often take time to warm up to new people. I was grateful to be able to relax on my vacation knowing my cats were well taken care of.
Mila is truly the best. There’s no one else I’d trust to watch our spicy cat 🌶️🐱. Its so hard to leave our cat, but Mila makes it a bit easier. Mila is super responsive & sends daily updates/photos— which we so appreciate! Our cat usually hides when new people enter the apartment. But with Mila’s patience & kindness— our cat is taking small steps toward warming up. Thank you so much, Mila!!
Taylor is the best! She takes the best care of my cat. She’s responsive, attentive, and thorough. I travel a lot for work so I feel at ease knowing that Taylor is watching my cat because I know she’ll take amazing care of her. Will definitely continue to book with her when I’m out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Brooklyn on Rover is $26.64 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 12,414 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 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 Brooklyn. On Rover:
- 88% 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.
