“Savanah is the best and our dogs LOVE her! She takes the absolute best care of our two large breed dogs while we travel. She makes sure they get a great amount of play and activity during her drops in while making sure the essentials are taken care off (food, water, etc). Her communication is top tier and we are super thankful for her help!”
“Lilie was amazing! She sent pictures of Welsey and went over the top with comminication. 10/10 would recommend and will be reaching out to her again in the furture.”
“Giuliana has been absolutely amazing! I don't leave many reviews online, but she 100% deserves the recognition. Giuliana has gone above and beyond, I will definitely ask for her to pet sit next time it's needed.”
“Lyndsi was absolutely amazing with our senior cat and kitten who needed daily medicine. Our senior is shy but warmed right up to her. The detailed updates and numerous photos helped keep my worries away. She even left the cutest drawing of our kitties. I will always book with Lyndsi!”
About: I have been looking after animals my entire life. I watched pets for neighbors growing up, walking, feeding and administering medicine. I have looked after dogs and cats for friends whenever they go out of town. I currently work weekday mornings, and two days a week I also work afternoons. My morning shifts are 6 hours, so I will have time to check on your fur babies early in the morning, and again around 2pm most days, or until 6pm the other two days. I’m free all day saturdays and sundays! I will follow whatever instructions you leave for me regarding how you’d like me to care for your pet while you’re away. I can administer medicine if necessary, and will give lots of love no matter what!
“Our experience with Heather was excellent. We just moved into a new house with a new kitten, and she handled everything without a problem. She was communicative, flexible, and great with all our critters. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“She is very communicative and prompt, consistent and thorough. I have cameras so I got to see how much my dogs loved her. So reliable and I’m grateful she could keep my dogs safe and happy!”
About: Hi! I would love to help care for the fur babies in your family! I do house sitting, pet-sitting, and dog walking. I have had pets of all kinds from guinea pigs, to cats, to 100+ lb dogs! I even have experience with taking care of newborn puppies. I am a very active person and can take your dogs out for a run if you would like. Also, I’ll bring your loved ones little treats while they are in my care, with your approval of course. If your pets need a bath or a grooming, I’ve got you covered. For house sitting, let me know if you need some things cleaned. I can help you out. I hope you consider me for your dog walking, pet-sitting, and house-sitting needs! I work as a supervisor at Mission Hospital from 7am -3:30pm each day. I am available on weekends and before or after work. On the weekends, I tend to take time to enjoy the outdoors for a few hours and go for long bike rides or hikes with friends. I can stay with your pets during the work week and on weekends. I can take them out to potty and crate them if need be when I am not there. Whatever you need, I've got you covered.
“James was great with my wild boys. I needed someone last min and he was on it! He's attentive, communicative, warm and put my dogs at ease. Glad to have found him and will use his services again.”
About: I'm that go to friend that everyone always asks to love on their pets while they are busy or out of town. I've had all sorts of pets in my life too. No requests to weird. I love to send selfies of your furbabies so you know they are safe and happy. I live in west Asheville and am able to travel to close towns. I have taken care of the special needs of animals I cared for. Pills and special food is all good. I do require a meet up drop in visit before we book a stay. I want to meet you and your pet in their own home and learn about their particular needs. This is so we both feel that your fur baby is being cared for the way they are used to. Less stress for pets and pet parents this way. I do work outside of pet sitting, but still have free time for pets. Im available for overnight stays as well. I will treat your home as I would my own. And yes I can bring in the mail(or packages) for you too. I appreciate written care instructions. That way if there is ever an emergency I can take the best possible care of your pet in a timely manner. LGBTQ+ friendly (obviously lol)
About: We both love animals of all kinds. We have always had pets in our lives and have loved being dog sitters for friends and family over the years. We are currently the proud parents of two wonderful dogs, Honeybee and Charlie. We have experience with special care for senior dogs. Our dog Carlos was blind and deaf for the last few years of his life, and had diabetes, requiring insulin shots every 12 hours. We have some dog training skills and have helped Honeybee on her path, starting as a wild rescue puppy to being the well-behaved young lady that she is now. We believe in positive reinforcement training and understand dog behavior enough to know when to step in and intervene. I (Ethan) am currently working a very flexible schedule of driving for Uber and Lyft. My schedule allows me to be home often and to stop by and check on Charlie and Honeybee and any visiting dogs frequently when I am working. If we have doggy daycare clients I am able to stay home all day. Hope is around on evenings and weekends and is always ready for playtime and snuggles with the pups. I am currently sharing residence with my partner Hope (who loves dogs as much as I do!) and she shares in the care of all the dogs. We have a large, fenced-in yard in the heart of West Asheville. We won’t leave your dogs outdoors unattended and will respect any special requirements as to the safety of your beloved babies. We understand the need for routine in a dog's life and will be happy to abide by whatever feeding/medication schedule, exercise needs, etc. that your dog has.
About: I have worked in the veterinary medicine industry for approximately 9-10 years. I am now a Vet Assistant in a small animal hospital. I have worked with and been around maybe different animals since I was young. I have also worked with horses for approximately 14 years in many different settings. I am fear free certified and truly enjoy giving an owner peace of mind that their pet is in great hands! 💛 If my schedule does not reflect your needs, please message me, I can be flexible at times. I am employed full-time with a 4-day work week. I am available on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays at any time. Other days of the week, I am available for PM drop-ins. When pet-sitting, I follow instructions from the owner and do not vary from the directions unless advised. I understand the importance of a pet's routine and sticking as closely to that as possible. I care for all animals with the same gentle, caring approach I use with my own pets. I am equipped to administer medication if needed.
“Autumn took great care of my 3 cats . This was the second time I had Autumn do daily visits and I highly recommend her as a reliable and thorough pet sitter. She responded quickly to any questions I had and I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing they were doing just fine ! She also brought in my mail and packages and sent photos each visit .”
About: I have grown up with animals of all shapes and sizes. And have professionally pet sat under a licensed & insured LLC I owned for several years before dissolving it to focus on my career in nursing. I have 2 mini Aussie pups myself, Biscuit & Gravy! Who’d love to have friends come visit to play :) I work as a labor & delivery nurse 3-days a week! And enjoy having things to breakup my schedule; like spending time with furry friends :) I live in a spacious 2/2 apartment & my complex has a large dog park. I also promise to treat your home like my own if I am staying with your furry friend(s)

Jane was amazing with our cats! She was so communicative and went above and beyond to make sure they stayed warm during the below freezing temps while we were out of town. She was very sweet with the cats and made sure to give each of them attention. We will absolutely be using her again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Candler on Rover is $14.43 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 578 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:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
