About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and have worked in an animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience safely handling pets, walking dogs, assisting with their care, and working with animals of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I've also cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. Whether your pet needs feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks, playtime, or simply some extra love and attention, I'm happy to help. I'm dependable, patient, and detail-oriented, and I understand how important it is to follow your pet's routine exactly as instructed. I'll provide photo and text updates during every visit so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, allowing me to provide dependable and consistent visits. Whether your pet needs a morning check-in, a midday visit, or evening care, I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule. I understand how important routine is for pets, and I’m committed to providing reliable care and giving each visit the time and attention your pet deserves. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big decision. During every visit, I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, make sure they have fresh food and water, provide walks or playtime as needed, clean litter boxes or pick up after your dog, and spend quality time with them so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also send photo and text updates after each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every home with respect and every pet with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting all my life. I also fostered a mid-size mixed terrier. I have two cats of my own. I love how all animals have amazing personalities! I can do dog walking, cat check ins with waste clean-up or over nights which ever you may need. I know how to administer meds to both cats and dogs. It is so important to have your furry loved ones pampered while you are away! I am retired so my availability is flexible. I also enjoy sending photos of your four legged loved one while you are away! I have also watched chickens, turtles, guinea pigs, snakes and iguanas. Looking forward to hearing from you! I am retired so I have a flexible schedule! I can go during the day or stay overnight at your home. Whichever you feel most comfortable with would work! When I come to your house, besides walking/feeding, I do waste cleanup as well. Of course, playing is a must! I will definitely send photos and videos so you know how your furry family member is feeling!

About: I’m a caring, responsible, and easy-going person who truly loves animals. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for I’m very flexible and I can work around a lot of times and make a lot of times work. We can work together to find what works best. I always make sure that animals are put in situations where they have the ability to thrive and are never in situations where their safety is in jeopardy.

About: Hi there! My name is Kat, and I have a deep, well-rounded background in animal care. With 3+ years of hands-on experience in animal rescue and 10 years of personal pet sitting (and 22+ years of animal-loving!), I bring calm expertise, safety awareness, and specialized care that goes far beyond standard pet sitting. I'm also a certified Wilderness First Responder and American Red Cross CPR Certified. Rescue Training: My time in animal rescue taught me to read subtle animal body language, prevent stressful situations, and keep pets safe and relaxed in any environment, while also serving as a friend and comfort to animals in need! Medication Administration: I have experience giving oral, topical, and routine medications to a wide variety of animals, ranging from kittens to senior dogs. Experience in All Sizes & Energy Levels: From toy breeds to giant dogs, I understand how to handle different temperaments and physical needs. I love taking high-energy dogs on extensive, engaging walks (especially on our local hiking trails!) to keep them physically exercised and mentally happy. I am a full-time student supporting myself while working toward my paralegal certification. I take my courses online from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. (Monday-Thursday), so I am available for in-home sitting, drop-in visits, or whatever your pet may need! Since I offer only In-House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, and walk services, your pets will receive 1-on-1 attention without leaving the comfort of their familiar surroundings. My priority is maintaining their daily routine while keeping your home secure and your pets safe. With every visit, I will provide consistent photo updates and detailed reports after each drop-in/day! Flexible, personalized pet care (drop-ins & sitting): Regardless of whether it's a quick 30-minute stop-in for food, meds, play, and potty breaks, or an overnight stay, I adapt entirely to your pet’s individual needs and routine. I strive to keep homes tidy, secure, and maintained, reducing travel stress for everyone and helping pets feel their best! Outdoor Safety: During walks and outdoor breaks, safety is paramount- I practice attentive situational awareness and strive to maintain large distances from any off-leash dogs, as well as ensuring your pet is safely and securely harnessed/leashed. Overall Safety Precautions: From my rescue experience, animals are curious!- In this, I ensure all doors, gates, and deadbolts are latched securely during every entry and exit, double-check that food and medications are sealed out of reach, as well as keeping a watchful eye out for subtle changes in pet health or behavior. Home Maintenance/Overall Peace of Mind: During house sits and drop-ins, I am happy to bring in mail, water plants, keep your living spaces spotless, or help with any other tasks.

“I cannot recommend Victoria enough! She was so wonderful with my cat. My cat is usually very shy around people she doesn't know so I was shocked to see pictures that Victoria sent me of her petting my cat or sitting with her! She clearly has the magic touch. She also dealt with her own emergency one day and still found a way to do a check in. I am so appreciative and will definitely use Victoria again!”

About: I have raised many puppies in my 10 years of experience. I like to take my dog and other fluffs on long walks through different parks and hiking trails. We always start the day with a high energy run/play at the park to get as much exercise in as possible. Throughout the day we go on shorter more frequent walks to keep her using the potty and help stay active. Our nightly walk consists of a long walk around our neighborhood to get out any extra energy so we can have a great nights sleep! I like to reward with treats and I don't mind animals on the furniture. Currently, I am a stay-at-home mom which makes me able to care for fluffs all day long. I still like to get in my exercise and taking the fluffs with me help keep me busy. I have a 4 month old puppy of my own who has MANY toys and places to sleep. She is very outgoing and house trained. I have space to crate your fluff baby if you'd like - please bring your own crate. I can also do basic puppy training as well - sit, lay, stay, handshake etc. I will also provide pictures and videos throughout our stay!

I have a kitten and she took special care of him. Took extra time to make sure each pet felt comfy with her. She’s our go-to sitter now!”

About: Animals are my life! They literally flock to me and I've always had a way with my furry friends. In my childhood my German Shepard, Flash, was the love of my life and always loved energetic play, beach runs, and playing in the dunes. I handle dogs both big and small and my current client has a tiny teacup mix, Riley, who despite his ten years of age, will play fetch for hours on end. He does have a heart condition and problem with his trachea, so being careful during walks (not letting him pull the leash too hard) and making sure he doesn't overwork his little heart are two safety concerns to always be mindful of. I also regularly dog sit Riley for weekend stay overs and make sure to stay with him in the bed so he is comfortable. Having grown up with all kinds of pets like parakeets, dogs, and guinea pigs (just to name a few) I've literally learned to "talk to the animals" and it's easy for me to familiarize with new pets and their needs very quickly. I'm very high-energy and can take your dog for an energetic walk at a comfortable based based on their health or general needs. And If you want your pup in tip top shape I can jog with them for hours and incorporate other fun games and exercises in the mix. I'm currently a full time "Rover" so my schedule is fairly open. I'm flexible in terms of last-minute bookings as well. The same flexibility applies if you would like to book a day or overnight sitter. I live on High Ridge Rd in Stamford near the Merritt so I'm only about 10 minutes away from the Mianus River State Park and 7 minutes from the Stamford dog park

He has a deep understanding of cat psychology, and he spent a ton of time interacting with our cats. We really appreciate him going above and beyond and will be booking him again!”

About: With over 15 years of experience in the pet care industry, caring for animals isn’t just my job—it’s my passion. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, and I also have experience caring for cats, reptiles, rodents, and other exotic pets. As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner myself, I understand that every pet is a member of the family. I currently care for multiple animals of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to provide loving, dependable care while you’re away. In addition to my professional experience, I volunteer at a local animal shelter and have experience with dog training, allowing me to confidently work with dogs that have different temperaments and training needs. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, cuddles, medication, or extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m also bilingual, making it easy to communicate with a wider range of pet parents. My goal is to provide personalized, reliable care that gives you peace of mind and keeps your furry, feathered, or scaly family members happy and healthy. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I work remotely, which means I’m home throughout the day and can provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship for your pet. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate potty breaks, playtime, feedings, medication schedules, and plenty of one-on-one care. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. I also have reliable transportation and can provide pick-up and drop-off services for your convenience. For active pups, I also offer adventure hikes and structured pack walks (with compatible dogs) if that’s something you’re interested in. Whether your pet prefers an active outing or a relaxing day at home, I’m happy to tailor their care to their individual needs and routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under supervision. My home is a spacious two-story house with a finished basement, which allows me to comfortably separate pets if needed for feeding, decompression, introductions, or if a dog simply prefers their own space. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or has special needs, I’ll provide patient, individualized care to help them feel safe and at home. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and never leave pets unattended in the yard. Fresh water is always available, and I closely monitor all playtime and interactions. For multi-pet households, I prioritize slow introductions and only allow dogs to interact if they are comfortable and compatible. (If allowed) I’m experienced working with dogs of all sizes, as well as cats and other small animals, and I’m comfortable administering medications if needed. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands.

Maddy was an amazing sitter for our kitty Penny! We had peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands when we were away on vacation. Maddy is great with all animals ( she got to see Miss P’s big brother Zeus ) and is extremely responsive and always there when needed!! It was such a pleasure having her there with Penny and we would love to have her care for Penny in the future :)

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Carmel

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Carmel is $36 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $40 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,475 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Carmel. 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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 , 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.
