“I reached out to Debra at practically the last minute when a cat sitting arrangement I had made for my vacation fell through. Debra responded immediately and agreed to take my kittens on. She was warm and friendly, both to my kittens and myself. Her communication was excellent and she provided me with thorough updates and adorable photos and videos every day. I sensed from the moment I met Debra that my kittens would be in safe hands and she proved to be as reliable as I had predicted she would be. I would highly recommend Debra and look forward to working with her again.”

“Thanks Bette-Joe. Tillie is normally a total recluse with strangers. She might like you more than us now. Thanks for taking great care of her.”

About: My wife says I'm a Disney princess because animals follow me home. I love animals I'm patient and kind I've had animals all my life and I would not have it any other way. I work continental shifts so I have days off regularly in the middle of the week with lots of free time to hang out with dogs and cats. We do not deserve animals they must be treated with the upmost respect and love. They are better than all of us. I would put an animal's needs before my own.

BJ was absolutely amazing!! Goose seemed to not even notice we were gone for the weekend. I loved all the pictures posted in our chat. Even handing the keys off at the end was awesome, we couldn’t stop chatting ☺️ We will definitely be booking with her again when we go away next. 10/10 ⭐️

Just back from another trip and so glad to have had Debra to come and take care of my kitties while I was away. I have so much peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. I also appreciate the excellent communication I have with Debra. Right from the moment of booking, she is always quick to reply and confirm, and the updates and photos she sends while I am away are much appreciated. She has also been so accommodating when, like on this trip, my travel plans have had to be tweaked last minute. Thanks so much Debra… you’re the best!

Our cat Worm loved Julianne! She went above and beyond just feeding and checking in on him and spent time playing and keeping him company. We would rebook again for sure! Thank you!

Karyn came through for us last minute when our plans changed. Our little dogs can be a handful. Karyn looked after our babies and I think that they looked forward to seeing her every day. Would recommend and will call again if the need arises.

Jenn was great! She did daily drop in visits for our cat Monster while we were away. We could tell from the daily photos that he was having a great time with her. We could rest assured that he was in great hands!

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.

There are 71 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Orillia. About 86% of Orillia sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 71 sitters in Orillia, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Orillia choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.
