Katherine is great! She was available for a last-minute booking, and is always great with communication. Our puppy Sirius gets so excited to see her, and I know he's in good hands while I'm out. Thanks so much!

Natalie is the sitter of our dreams! This was our first time away from our cats and from the get go, knew that they were in good hands. Natalie went above and beyond in her care towards our Bonnie and Clyde and we would not hesitate to use her again in the future. Thanks again!

About: Cats and dogs have a special spot in my heart; caring for them brings me so much joy. I have been caring for animals for 10+ years, from puppies and kittens to seniors with special diets. I also have some knowledge in puppy training. I will walk your pets as frequently as they need and give them the care and attention they deserve. I am available most days at any time; my schedule is pretty lenient, and my pets here have other family members who care for them when I am caring for new pet friends. I am able to care for pets at the client's home, offering 1:1 attention, including brushing, walking, feeding, play, and bathing if needed or requested. I will provide text and photo updates throughout our visits.

About: I love all kinds of animals. I'm a cat parent myself but love to walk and play with dogs. I'm not very experienced with lizards, fish, birds or rodents but am happy to learn their specific needs. I'm new to Rover but have always looked after cats and dogs for my friends and family. On weekdays I'm available for feeding and walks before 8:30AM and after 5:30PM with some flexibility. On weekends and holidays I am generally open and available. I am detail oriented and focused on providing the up most care for your pets and your space. No stranger to cleaning littler boxes, attending to hairballs and other messes, or deep cleaning a water fountain. I'n happy to take care of your plant babies as well.

About: I love animals especially dogs. I love dog walking and just hanging out with dogs they are so fun and cute. I have ample experience being around and caring for animals I work in the arts and currently have a few weeks off before I start my next job so looking to fill my time with some dog or cat sitting. I am very reliable and dependable. It’s preferable for me to walk or care for the animals in their home as it’s more familiar to them. I love to walk/play/cuddle dogs. I enjoy just being around them and playing with them.

About: My wife and I have been fostering dogs and cats from the Humane Society and other rescues for 5 years, in addition to being pet owners ourselves. We have specifically taken on animals with health complications in need of special care, e.g. medication, physiotherapy, pregnancy, etc. As a bonus, my wife is a dog groomer with a salon attached to our home, so if your pet needs some sprucing up, we can help with that, too! Both my wife and I work from home and I am currently on leave from work, so I have lots of extra time to devote to your pet 🙂 We have a large, fenced yard that provides ample space for play. We currently own three cats (Mouse, Graham, and Rudy), two budgies (Nigel and Fergus), and one fish (Oscar). The cats are used to foster pets (about 60 cats and dogs over the past 5 years) coming in and out on a regular basis and the birds are up nice and high.

About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of dogs, from big to small and high energy to low. Family, friends and neighbours have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pups over the past 4 years. Also having trained and cared for my own fury baby the past two years, I know how much attention they can require. Currently my schedule is very open, allowing full flexibility for any on the go pet parents. Being busy doesn’t have to mean compromising your pet care. Of course, any care instructions will be thoroughly followed. Whether your dog has dietary concerns, needs a lot of exercise, or just a lot of snuggles, I am happy to accommodate any way I can.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Stratford on Rover is $22.76 per visit (as of July 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 .

There are 369 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Stratford. About 86% of Stratford 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.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 369 sitters in Stratford, 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 Stratford 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 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.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
