“Elizabeth was great! We just needed a few short drop in visits and our cats were totally comfortable with her by the end of the trip! Will definitely be rebooking next time we need someone to check on our cats!”
“Krysten was great and we couldn't have been more comfortable with her caring for our two cats while we were away! One of our cats can be a little difficult and she handled it no problem. Would highly recommend and will use again!!”
About: 15+ years of experience in raising animals and caring for them. Familiar with socialization and training for puppies and kittens. Always provide a safe and comfortable environment for all fur babies, they deserve the world! Weekends and most weekdays I am working from home so have plenty of availability to spoil and care for your pet(s) like my own! The few days I am working I am only gone half the day so still spend the majority of my time at home spoiling my own pets. Your cat(s) can expect an entire bedroom to themselves. Fully furnished with all cat amenities including litter box(s), water fountain, food bowls, toys, beds, tree, scratchers and a wheel. I also have a large Catio space with plenty of scratchers, cat trees/toys and turf so they can enjoy monitored sunbathing. All spaces have cameras so I can send you video clips or pictures while they are lounging during their stay!
“Abigail was absolutely amazing! She kept me updated throughout the entire visit, followed all of our instructions, and even went above and beyond what we asked. She cleaned our dogs’ paws when they got muddy, played with them, and made sure everything was taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! I 100% recommend her! 💕”
“Pei-Wen (Irene) is amazing! She has cared for our two cats numerous times. She's caring, reliable, responsible, hard working, and a great communicator. She is definitely our favorite cat sitter.”
About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life having grown up with 3 dogs in the household at all times and 2 cats. My neighbors would often rely on me when I was younger to take care of their animals when they were away, and I have had several coworkers now as an adult ask the same of me. I love pets, and I often find that even the shyest pets warmup to me. I have lots of experience with all ages of animals, and with taking care of all sorts of medical needs they might have. I am also excellent at following directions. At the end of the day this is your pet, and I would love to have the honor of taking care of them while you are away. I am currently studying at asu west MWF 9-10 and 3-4, so depending on how close to campus you live, I will be able to come see your pets in between those classes! Tuesdays is just 8-11am, but Thursdays I teach science in the mornings to homeschooled kids, and then have class right after from 3-6, making me unavailable from 8-6 unfortunately. I am living with my grandma, so my house is not available for sitting, but I will always be respectful of your house and your wishes on how you like your pets to be taken care of. I am also comfortable with creating when I leave if that is something you do.
About: About Me 😸 Hi, I'm Maggie! I bring extensive, professional hands-on veterinary industry (including ER) experience to every pet I care for. For me, pet sitting isn't a hobby—it is a commitment to providing the absolute highest standard of safety, comfort, and specialized care. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walking partner or your senior cat requires a gentle, patient companion, I tailor my routine entirely to your pet's unique personality and medical needs. Why Choose Me? • Advanced Medical Knowledge: With my veterinary background, I am completely comfortable administering oral medications, topical treatments, and injections. I can expertly read animal body language to spot subtle signs of stress, discomfort, or medical changes before they become issues. • Special Needs & Senior Care Experts: I welcome senior pets, puppies, and animals recovering from surgery or managing chronic illnesses. I know exactly how to maintain strict care schedules. • Safety First, Always: My industry experience means I treat emergency preparedness as a top priority. You will receive regular, detailed updates and photo check-ins so you can enjoy your time away with 100% peace of mind. Please reach out with any questions or to schedule a Meet & Greet! Because pet care is my primary focus, your pet will never be left alone for long periods. • Boarding / House Sitting: I maintain a consistent, predictable routine. Pets are never left unattended for more than 2 to 4 hours at a time, ensuring plenty of potty breaks, mental stimulation, and companionship. • Drop-Ins / Walks: I offer flexible scheduling windows throughout the day. I arrive promptly within our agreed-upon time frame so your pet's feeding and medication schedule remains perfectly on track. Safety and respect for your property are my absolute highest priorities. I treat your home with the utmost care and maintain strict safety protocols to ensure your pets remain secure and comfortable in their own familiar environment: • Home Security & Vigilance: I strictly follow your locking preferences, arm security alarms precisely as instructed, and ensure all windows and gates are securely closed before leaving or going to sleep. I keep a low profile to ensure your home looks occupied and secure. • Escaping Prevention: I am incredibly vigilant about "door-darting." I use careful entry and exit barriers to ensure pets never have the opportunity to slip outside accidentally. During walks, dogs are always kept on secure, reliable leashes—never off-leash in unsecured areas. • Health & Behavioral Monitoring: I perform daily, subtle health checks (monitoring appetite, energy levels, and bathroom habits). Because of my professional background, I can spot the earliest signs of stress, bloat, or discomfort and act immediately. • Emergency Preparedness: I keep the contact information for your primary veterinarian and the nearest 24/7 emergency pet hospital easily accessible. If an unexpected home issue arises (like a leak or power outage), I will handle it calmly and contact you immediately.
“Francesca was the best! She took very good care of our 3 kitties, and sent lots of pictures and videos. She is also very nice and communicates well! I would highly recommend her and would hire her again!”
About: I’ve been in the petsitting business for 10 plus years now, and I’ve never met an animal I didn’t like! With two cats at home, and being a regular sitter for my brother with a German shepherd and friend with a Golden and a Collie mix, I’m confident I’ll get along great with your pet, whatever their shape or size. I’ve got experience at giving out medications, making sure pups do their business on walks, and I excel at giving ear scratches and belly rubs. (: As a full-time worker (8:30 am to 5:30 pm, M-F), my availability is limited to early mornings and evenings. If you’re needing someone to check in on your pup or cat in the morning and around dinnertime, I’m your gal! During those times, I’m happy to make sure your pet is happy, healthy and fed. If I’m housesitting, I will stay overnight and give lots of cuddles! (: I completely understand that it’s hard to leave your home and pet! I will always respect your boundaries within your home and make sure I leave it better than I found it. A petsitter is often also a housesitter, and I will make sure I honor your space. With cats at home, I understand how quickly messes can accumulate, and I’m fully comfortable with cleaning even the grossest of them up. (:
About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have trained just as many. Big or small, I care for them all. I have an open schedule. I've got plenty of time to care for the cuties. I'm available from early in the morning to late at night. Firstly, I make sure the pet is used to my presence, I then try to build enough trust for the animal to let me pet them, I will then proceed with my duties.
“I am so glad I found Holly. She is excellent! My dog Simon loves her. She is reliable and responds very quickly. She takes her time with Simon walking him, giving him time outside and spending time loving on him. Her notes of the visit are detailed. FShe gives him alot of love. I highly recommend her !”
“Maddie was great with Jade over the 11 days and nights with Jade! And even helped me out when I had to go out of town for a few days after returning for only one day. It was so reassuring to know that Jade had company during the day and especially overnight when cats do get lonely and sad. I loved the photos and videos she sent throughout the day too! I am sure Jade missed Maddie already!”

What does that tell you?? im retired and can take dogs for walks or stay overnight, Im easy...and I also love cats....even medications. Im pretty much open within my area, I live near Cardinals stadium. Whatever you need me for, can also give oral meds to cats or dogs. You can absolutely trust me, im a retired postal worker after 31 years. I would treat your home better than my home...you can install cameras...doesn't matter to me.
“Kalin is a fantastic pet sitter! She took great care of my cat and provided nice updates and communication with me about my pet every visit. I would recommend her services and use her again in the future!”
About: I have grown up around all types of animals. It is my passion to care for them and make sure they feel loved. I go the extra mile to make sure everything is good! :) I am currently unemployed, so I have a lot of time to care for pets. Of course not 24/7 because I need to love and care for my Marty! But, my availability is pretty open. I don’t currently allow other pets to come into my home, but I am able to stop by your home, if needed to check on/feed the pets.
“Cristen was incredibly helpful for our urgent need for a drop in. She was super fast to confirm and reach out to me while I was out of town. She ensured my cats were doing well and had plenty of food and water. Highly recommend!”
“Tiffany was a wonderful sitter to our two cats, Sushi and Junior, while we were away. She provided detailed updates, clear communication, and lots of pics of our little guys. She went above and beyond and offered to take our mail in when we weren't home. The boys enjoyed her company and playtime whenever she dropped-in. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter in West PHX/Glendale!”
“Sabrena is the absolute sweetest and I was so impressed with how good she was with my dog. They adored each other and my dog is very picky about who she likes and I’m so happy my baby loved her. 10/10 would definitely recommend!”

As usual, Beth took amazing care of our medically high maintenance kitties! We have a diabetic boy cat who gets 2 shots a day and a girl cat that has thyroid disease and is very finicky about taking her meds but Beth makes sure they get everything they need when we are out of town. ♥️
Kylea took such sweet care of my two kitties while I was away! They loved all the neck scratchies and extra love she gave them and she even looked after my plant babies 🌱 She was reliable and has many animals herself so she is clearly a fellow animal lover!! 🫶🏻
This is the second time I've used Savannah to watch my two cats. It's nice to know they are in such great hands while I'm away - I don't worry about them at all. She takes the time to interact with them and treat them as I would. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Annabella was amazing! She went above and beyond to care for our cat Loki while we were on vacation. The night we left, our fire alarms became defective and kept setting off until our maintenance team could come fix them the next day. Annabella stayed extra long during her visit to reassure Loki and comfort him. Our litter robot also had a connection issue, and she was able to reset it & set up an emergency litter box I had shipped to the home. The fire alarm situation caused me a lot of anxiety at the beginning of the trip, but the daily updates and photos from Annabella made me feel so much better and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the rest of our trip, knowing our boy was in good hands! We would definitely rebook with her on future trips. :)
Im so grateful to Issy taking care of my babies. I have a regular babysitter who is gone for the summer and am always nervous to trust someone new but she honestly exceeded my expectations and I just booked her again for next month. The thorough updates she provides really puts me at ease and I was surprised that even my most timid kitty warmed up to her immediately. 🩷
Laura is awesome! She is super communicative, kind and so attentive to our fur babies and their needs. Loved the photos she sent, too. Laura was flexible and very understanding throughout our booking. When we were unreachable during our trip, she coordinated with our neighbors as needed. Highly recommend and so grateful for her services!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Bumstead is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $27 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.

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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
