About: Hi, my name is Oksana, I'm an animal lover and i would take them all in. I'm ready to care for your pups and give them what they need. I have taken care of pups from st. Bernard size to dachshund size. I have taken care of aggressive dogs and dogs that have had a litter of puppies. I also have a cat and am comfortable with watching your cats as well. I love to walk and exercise if that's what your dog is needing.
“Elizabeth took great care of our cats! She took pictures and provided detailed descriptions of each visit, and took initiative when necessary. We would absolutely hire her again!”
“Gigi has been absolutely fabulous with my dog Thor these past few weeks. She takes excellent care of him. Takes him for a walk around my house, fills up the water bowl and sits on the porch with him. She also gives a great detailed update on the rover card of what he did during her stay with him and sends lots of photos. I have been so happy to have her take care of Thor while we are at work and puts me at ease knowing she is there to let him out on those long days. Will definitely rebook again!!!”
About: I have 10+ years of experience working in the pet-care industry. I have worked both full time and part time as a pet sitter/dog walker. I have familiarity with a large number of breeds and personalities. It doesn't matter if you have multiple animals in your home needing care, or just one. I am currently full time for pet sitting and/or dog walking and available days or nights, including weekends. Mornings, midday, evening, and late night. I will meet with you prior to caring for your pets to go over their routine and care so we are able to keep the same schedule while you are away. The goal is limit stress for both you and your pet during the separation.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, so that’s 25 years of loving animals, but just 11 years as the sole caregiver of my own. From Labradors to Chihuahuas, to Police K-9s, I’ve loved them all, though I’m currently a cat lady. For the first time in my life, I don’t have any dogs at the moment, as I don’t feel like I have enough space for it to be fair to them. So this is how I get my dog fix, and my steps in at the same time 🤭. I currently have 2 cats and 1 hedgehog, I’m a sucker for an exotic pet. I’ve also had 4 snakes in the past (my husband is terrified or else I’d have some right now). One of my cats is leash trained, and one has some medical needs, so I’m familiar with oral medication administration as well. I do work full-time during the week, so I am only available after 5pm. Sometimes I’m able to step away for breaks as I work from home 3 days per week, but my work is pretty irregular, so afternoons and evenings are the best bet for my availability. I live in a relatively small condo, so I don’t have much space. As much as I would love to offer boarding, I don’t think it would be fair to your pet, as I also do not have a yard.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats by my side for almost my entire life, gaining hands-on experience with a wide variety of dog breeds, from small to large. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies and kittens as young as four weeks old through senior aged. learning the unique needs of every life stage. I’ve also spent time fostering dogs, preparing them for successful adoptions by providing love, training, socialization, and medical care. This deep, lifelong experience has given me the knowledge, patience, and skills to confidently care for other people’s dogs and cats as if they were my own. I'm currently taking a break from the corprote world and looking for new adventures. This gives me plenty of time to care for your pet(s) as needed. I will happily care for your pet in a way that keeps them safe and makes you feel at ease. Meeting your pets individual needs.
“Nishat agreed to a multi-day, multiple visits per day, booking with less than 2 weeks notice. She stopped by to meet them in advance of our trip and took her time to get to know each of them. She was very calm, gentle, and caring. Our dog and cats took to her right away. She did a great job caring for them while we were away, even diligently providing them medication that was prescribed *after* she had agreed to the booking. We are so pleased with Nishat and grateful to have found her!”
About: I love animals and dogs and had them all my life including other pets. I had a dog, black lab, named Glory for about 13 years, I’ve had lots of cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits and I’ve also volunteered at a wildlife rehabilitation facility numerous times. I currently have two cats! I can work with all kinds of animals and if you have special needs or instructions just let me know and I'll do my best to meet your demands. I just graduated college this past May and I will be doing pet care part-time. I’m available Monday through Friday 10am - 5 pm. I can use a keypad or hidden key to securely access your house for drop in visits, play, walking and care. I will then leave the house secure until I return.
“Sara is wonderful, her attention to detail, thoughtful communication is one of my favorite qualities. Tatertot was well taken care of on her drop in visits. We will rebook, when she has availability. Your pets are in good hands! I highly recommend”
“Meghan has been terrific with our little old anxious dog! She has stayed with him twice and taken care of our house, filled bird feeders, etc., and she came during a holiday week (most recently) to let him out mid-day, staying long enough to play, give him treats, and take him out a 2nd time. And send a pic! Really appreciate her willingness to do this the day after Christmas!”

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Buxton on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 504 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Buxton. 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.
