“Dylan was great with my dog Bo. He encouraged my old lazy dog to get out for potty breaks on our drop in visits. He’s detail-oriented and clearly cares about animals. We will absolutely use him again.”
“Amani closely monitored our kitties and gave timely updates. Loved the pictures of them rubbing up against their brush and her breadth of animal care knowledge helped make us feel secure.”
“Suz went above and beyond caring for Luna and Zozo. It was such a relief knowing they were safe and taken care of by someone who loves animals just as much as I do. She even was okay with a last minute plan change which is so deeply appreciate. Highly recommend!”
“Appreciate Flora for taking our last minute request and drop in for our cat Reggae over weekend. Communication with her was prompt and easy, and she did a great job taking care of Reggae. She also took some of the best looking cat pics. Thank you Flora!”
“Stacey is such a blessing to take care of my fur baby even on a short notice. She is easy to reach out to and very responsive, which is super convenient. Thank you Stacey bfor taking care of Tintin during the Christmas weekend as well.”
“Mary is an amazing cat sitter , she stayed more than the 30 minutes I paid for and went above and beyond to make sure my cat was comfortable and well cared for while I was away .I would 💯 percent recommend her”
“Lucy was great! We had a last minute trip and couldn't get ahold of the other pet sitters we work with so I reached out to Lucy. She was very attentive, asked great questions and gave me lots of suggestions to make this work last minute. And she was right. We went on the trip and had complete peace of mind having Lucy take care of our lovely cat. It was nice knowing that our cat had a friend to spend time with and was happy and healthy this whole time. We can't thank Lucy enough! She is now definitely at the top of the list and I will be surely reaching out when we need again.”
“We had a great experience with Hsuan-Chu. She took such good care of our cats and really spent time playing with them, which they loved. Clove is usually pretty shy and nervous around new people, but she actually felt comfortable with Hsuan-Chu and even warmed up to her, which meant a lot to us. Cumin also enjoyed spending time with her and clearly had a great time playing. Communication was easy, we always got thoughtful updates, and we could tell they were both happy and well cared for. We’d definitely book with her again.”
“Nasrin was great working with my small dogs while I was away. They loved her caring approach. She was also responsive and always sent updates and pictures which I really appreciated. :)”
“Shawna was attentive and truly cared for my cat Kitty. She was on time and never missed a day in two weeks. If I could give her 6 stars, I would. Thank you Shawna, job well done! Dr Jim”
“Ashley was amazing during her drop in visits with our 2 kitties! She was communicative, on time, and made sure to send lots of pictures and videos - Guapo our spicy male kitty really seemed to enjoy her company as well! We would absolutely reccomend her to anyone in the area looking!”
About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, and small pets like gerbils. I have a calm, patient, and friendly demeanor that helps me quickly build trust with animals of all personalities. As a dedicated animal lover, I treat every pet like family. I understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates and photos to keep you reassured. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and pets who require medication, and I’m attentive to their individual needs and routines I am available most days out of the week, and on weekends. I currently work from home, so I can assure you that your pet will get all the attention and love they deserve! When boarding pets in my home, they are provided with a private, comfortable space in a dedicated spare bedroom to help them feel safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am respectful of all household rules, maintain cleanliness, and provide regular updates and photos to ensure peace of mind while you’re away.
“Rachel was available on short notice when I needed help with my puppy, and from the start she brought a calm, responsible presence that put me at ease. I had previously met her at a volunteer food drive, which spoke to her integrity and character before I ever entrusted her with my dog. As a Velcro-dog owner (especially doodle and cockapoo families — you understand), leaving was hard. While I was away, she took time to speak with me on the phone, listened thoughtfully, and helped me reframe my fears in a sound, steady way. That meant a great deal. She was flexible, trustworthy, and attentive. Nearly two weeks after returning home, my puppy is actually better adjusted than before I left — he gained a healthy sense of independence, and I gained peace of mind. Rachel is top-notch. I would absolutely trust her again.”
“Joleen was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my two cats while away on a trip, was able to give my diabetic cat his insulin, and treated them like her own. I was extremely happy with the status updates and never had to worry about anything. If you need a reliable pet sitter who will give your pets the best treatment, look no further!”
“Soyoung was amazing while we were out of town during Thanksgiving! She took very good care of our cat Lily. It was clear she has a lot of experience caring for cats. We’d definitely ask her again to take care of her in the future!”
“My pup loves Katerinne, he is very excited to see her for walks. She is also very thoughtful and recently brought in a heavy dog food package inside for me while I was out. Highly recommend!”
“Natalee went above and beyond in all aspects. I felt so comfortable leaving my pet in her care. She was diligent about my pets needs and so thoughtful about it all. I am so grateful I got to work with her!”
“Wandis was very well cared for, and I really appreciated the love and attention she received. Anna was kind, reliable, and made me feel at ease while I was away. I’m very grateful and would happily book again.”
About: I grew up with English Setters and an American Bulldog, so big dogs with big personalities have always felt like home. I even helped with training our Bulldog, which taught me that consistency, patience, and understanding body language go a long way. Every dog is different, and that’s one of my favorite things about them. Some want to sprint around the neighborhood, some would rather stop and sniff every single blade of grass (and I’ll happily wait while they conduct their very important investigations). I enjoy figuring out what makes each dog feel comfortable, happy, and engaged. Whether your dog is high-energy, a gentle giant, or somewhere in between, I’ll meet them where they are. My goal is simple: make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. As a mechanical engineering student, my schedule varies a bit throughout the year. I keep my calendar updated to reflect exam weeks and semester schedule changes, including the transition at the end of August. I believe pets deserve unhurried, attentive care, so I only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to. That means when I’m with your pet, they have my full attention, not just a spot squeezed into a busy schedule. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision. I’ll always treat your home with the same care and respect I’d expect someone to show mine. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, respect any household rules, double-check doors and gates, and make sure your pet has fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe and happy.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Buena Vista
Estefania did a wonderful job taking care of my cat! She was very reliable, attentive, and kept me updated while I was away. My cat was well cared for, and I felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Estefania and would be happy to book with her again!
Responsible. Sweet. Humble. Communicative. Fabulous person. These are all qualities that Yukie has. If I already didn't have a regular pet caretaker through Rover, I would hire Yukie every time. She has definitely become our first backup in case our regular Rover person isn't available. Thank you Yukie for taking such good care of Dante for us, and for leaving the house immaculate. You get an A+ from us!
Rachel did a great job taking care of our 2 cats! We had a last-minute trip come up, and she was quick to agree to watch them. One of our cats needs insulin shots twice a day, and she was comfortable giving them to him. We felt completely comfortable leaving the cats in her care and would definitely have her watch them again!
Kathleen is a warm, compassionate person who loves animals. She exudes the type of calm energy that my cat immediately felt safe in. I could tell by the fact that my cat didn’t spend the whole time hiding! Her pet report is detailed and well written and her pictures of my cat were so cute. I highly recommend her
This is the second time booking with Hannah for a few weeks, and it gives me real peace of mind knowing she takes such good care of my cat—especially when I’m far away! I love getting updates, photos, and videos during every visit; I missed my cat a lot while I was on vacation, but knowing she’s in good hands with Hannah is truly reassuring. Thanks, Hannah :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Buena Vista on Rover is $27.75 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 3,070 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Buena Vista. 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 Buena Vista. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
