“Aracely is the ultimate cat whisperer! This was our third time having her look after our home, and even for just a short visit, she continues to impress. Leaving a big pet family behind can be stressful, but knowing our six cats are in such great hands gives us total peace of mind. Aracely handles everyone’s individual quirks and needs like an absolute pro, ensuring they are not only well-fed but genuinely comfortable and content for the rest of the day. Every time we get back, everything is perfect and it’s clear our crew is happy and at ease. Huge shoutout to Aracely for taking such amazing care of them—we’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“She took great care of our dog. Maggie was nervous in the beginning but Mandy was able to help her feel comfortable, which we saw in the picture updates she sent us. Great experience!”
“Sarah was great with my cats, tracking down my shy boy each visit. This is her 2nd year with us. Gave the cats their meds and sent timely updates. I highly recommend!”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life. From tiny shih tzus, heelers, golden retrievers, I’ve loved spending time with all the dogs I’ve had, and the ones I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of. My typical work hours range from 8-3:30 Monday-Saturdays! I have time to take care of pets in the afternoon and evenings, as well as all day on Sundays. I try my best to make sure pets are comfortable, which is why I enjoy pet sitting at a client’s home. Having a plan and schedule helps myself and the pets out.
About: I've worked at a Veterinary Clinic for a year where I worked with pets all day! I have owned two dogs, one being a puppy! I’m currently working part-time at Clinic, so I am able to come check on your pet during my lunch break! I am also available to come to your house after work to care for your pet! I am unavailable to board or do doggy day care, but I am able to dog walk, house sit, and dog/cat sit! I love taking care of animals! Working at a clinic has been the best thing for me to know exactly what your pet wants and needs! When staying in your home I will make sure to know how he/she thrives! I will also give daily updates along with a little pic of your pet!
“Annette was great! She watched May for three weeks while I was on a business trip. She was very responsive and always sent lots of update photos. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Allison was a great sitter and friend for Smitty for the three weeks we were out of town. There were many visits involved over this time period and Allison did a good job communicating with us about Smitty's various walks and play-times, what kind of mood he was in, whether he drank some water after play-time, and other info. She really cares about Smitty and enjoys the work. We highly recommend Allison!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats through owning family pets and helping care for animals belonging to friends and relatives. As a pre-veterinary student at Grand Valley State University, I am passionate about animal health, safety, and well-being. I have also gained hands-on experience through veterinary shadowing, where I observed animal handling, patient care, and communication with pet owners. I am attentive to each pet's unique needs and committed to providing safe, reliable, and loving care while you are away. I currently have full availability for the summer and can provide flexible pet care throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. As a pre-veterinary student at Grand Valley State University, I enjoy spending time with animals and am excited to dedicate my summer to caring for pets. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, playtime, or companionship while you're away, I am committed to providing reliable, attentive, and loving care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide consistent and attentive care. Whether I am caring for your pet in your home or during a visit, I will follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household rules. As a pre-veterinary student with veterinary shadowing experience, I understand the importance of monitoring animal behavior and well-being. I strive to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while you are away.
“Marissa is an outstanding and reliable person to be offering her impeccable services in the EL area. We had a quick trip that we had not planned, and Marissa was quick to answer- even with the short notice! She’s very attentive to ensure that if you’re leaving an animal at home for a couple of days. That not only is your pet taken care of, but they have not gotten into any pesky business while you’ve been away. We always think of Marissa when it comes to animal services!”
About: I have 5 dogs of my own, ranging from a cattle dog to a pitbull.I have no problem taking care of any type of animal and I have experience in all fields of care, including bathing, walking, nail-trimming, and more. I’m free from 6am-11pm on weekdays! I do work full-time but my boss is lenient and he’d have no problem with me tending to your furry friends! I personally have 5 dogs in a non-fenced in yard but they are all very well trained. I would prefer to keep your animals in the comfort of their own home though due to my dogs being very playful, if your dogs are comfortable being in a high-energy setting it would be no problem but they don’t need added stress from my rowdy bunch.
“Had Megan for a repeat service. She does an incredible job with a grumpy, antisocial cat. Megan is very responsive to communication and asks questions if necessary. Will be using her again for our next get away.”
“Emily was wonderful to work with and took great care of my cat while we were away. She made sure to send pictures frequently and was great with communication and updates. She played with our cat well and made sure that she got attention during visits. I would recommend!”
About: I've been a part of a foster family for dogs of all ages since 2010 and will continue to do so even longer. The puppy litters I watched over the years have consisted of 4 puppies or less. The oldest "puppies" I've fostered were just about 6 months old but they are usually around 4 to 8 weeks. The oldest dogs I've watched were two small dogs: one was 16 years old and the other was 14 years old. Even before fostering, I watched and walked my neighbor's two dogs during all seasons. If she had not moved away, I would still be walking and caring for them now. I've always had a passion for dogs and my current dog, Ruby, is my second .
“Charity did an awesome job watching Sophie! She was always on time and provided us with detailed updates. Our dog really enjoyed spending time with her. Charity made us feel very confident Sophie was in good hands while we were out of town!”
About: I've had pets since I was 14 yrs old. I have done the puppy stage to helping my senior dog at the end of her life. Your pet will be allowed on all the furniture. Cuddles are a must in my household. I am comfortable with giving medicine or any other treatment your pet may need while in my care. I work full time, but I am able to come home on my lunch break. I am avaible for long visits or short visits. I am very accomodating to your pets schedule and needs. I live in a townhouse. I do not have a fenced in yard, but they do have a small fenced in area for your dog to run around in. There is lots of room for long or short walks. I also live right next to The Ravines if you are comfortable with me taking your pet to the dog park.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 784 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Burnips. 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.

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.
