Great Sitter! The best I ever worked with. Ms. Shay treats my dogs as family and sees them as her dogs. Ms. Shay was so nice to take pictures and give constant updates, she also was so nice to give my dogs some of her own dog treats and snacks. I highly recommend. Going to be a for sure repeat customer.

Susan did a great job watching my cat. She was very friendly. My cat allowed Susan to pet her. My cat is pretty standoffish towards most people. Susan really helped me out while I was gone.

About: Over the past two years, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. From an energetic 8-month-old Staffy puppy I cared for over 6 weeks to sweet senior dogs who need gentle, patient love, I tailor my care to each dog's unique personality and needs. I've worked with a variety of breeds including Great Danes, Border Collies, terriers, and rescue dogs. Whether your pup needs high-energy playtime, calm companionship, or specialized attention, I'm here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away Over the past two years, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. From an energetic 8-month-old Staffy puppy I cared for over 6 weeks to sweet senior dogs who need gentle, patient love, I've worked with Great Danes, Border Collies, terriers, rescues, and more. I love going on walks while listening to music or audiobooks, so adding a friendly dog companion is never a hassle! Whether your pup wants to stop and smell every smell or needs a brisk walk to burn off energy, I'm happy to match their pace. I'm also available for drop-in visits to check on your pet, let them out in the backyard, or provide midday company. For cat parents: I understand that cats need patience and respect. I've cared for both indoor and outdoor cats, including seniors requiring medication like steroid treatments every other day. I always let cats come to me on their own time—no forced cuddles, just calm, reliable care. Unfortunately, I'm not offering boarding at my home right now, but I'm happy to provide walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting at your place! Since I'm currently offering drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting at the client's home, I focus on making your pet feel comfortable and keeping their normal routine. For dogs: I follow your feeding schedule, take them on walks that match their energy level (whether that's a leisurely sniff-filled stroll or a brisk energy-burner), and provide plenty of playtime and attention. I'm happy to let them out in the backyard for potty breaks and will stick to any special instructions you have. For cats: I respect their independence and let them approach me on their own timeline. I'll handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and medication if needed. I'm experienced giving treatments like steroids to senior cats. General care: I'll send you photos and updates so you know your pet is doing well. I can also bring in mail, water plants, or adjust blinds to keep your home looking lived-in while you're away. My goal is to provide stress-free care so your pet stays happy and comfortable in their own environment, and you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

About: I have always enjoyed being around animals and have been the pet sitter and housesitter for my family. I’ve watched a variety of different dogs, with a variety of temperments, and needs. I am tidy and polite and will be a sense of security when leaving your furry friends. I am currently working from home and temporarily take phone calls that can last 3 to 5 minutes long. I would have plenty of time to play with your pups and long morning and evening walks. I would prefer to housesit your dog in its own environment, as well as have the opportunity to work from home. I would treat your pet as if they were my own. I would be able to provide any special needs your pet required, and would try my best to make them feel comfortable and safe. Lots of loving and pay time!

About: What Pet Parents Can Expect Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 35 years of experience caring for pets of all kind, from pampered pups to quirky cats, bunnies, and everything in between. When your pet is with me, they’re not just getting care, they’re getting love, snuggles, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I specialize in senior pets, special needs animals, and those who just need a little extra TLC. Whether your fur baby is shy, spunky, or somewhere in between, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. You can expect: Regular updates with cute photos and notes A calm, nurturing environment A clean, safe space for play and rest Patience, reliability, and tons of love Experience with administering meds and handling special diets Think of me as your pet’s favorite extended family member, the one they’re always excited to see! Hope to meet your dog(s), cat(s), horse(s), etc soon! :) Pet care isn’t just part of my day. It is my day. From sunrise snuggles to sunset strolls, my entire routine revolves around the animals I care for. Whether I’m feeding breakfast to a sleepy pup, giving midday meds to a senior cat, or ending the evening with playtime and cuddles, every moment is planned with pets in mind. Caring for animals has been my lifelong passion, and I’ve built a lifestyle around making sure every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and understood. I’m always home or nearby, so your pet will never feel alone or neglected. This isn’t just a job to me. It’s who I am. When your pet stays with me, they become part of my heart and my home. The care I provide is 100% customized to whatever that pet's parents do as a routine with them. My goal is to make their stay with me as close to what they are used to as possible.

Katie was excellent in providing care for my kitten and cat. She played with the cats, fed them perfectly as my kitten is high maintenance. She took care of the litter boxes, brought in the mail and did extras as well. I felt very comfortable knowing my lives were well taken care of. I highly recommend Katie. Just excellent!! ♥️♥️♥️

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Candler on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 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 .

As of August 2026, there are 427 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Candler. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Candler. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
