“Rosemary is a fantastic pet sitter. She took incredible care of our cat and he loved every visit. She had excellent communication, gave us detailed updates on our cat, and went above and beyond to understand our and our cats needs, including feeding, supplement, toy, treat, litter and other needs. We would absolutely work with her again.”
“Deb is an absolutely wonderful cat sitter! One of my two cats has severe separation anxiety, but Deb's loving attention and fun playtime really put her at ease. Daily photos and updates definitely put me at ease as well. When I came back from my trip, both cats were happy and content. Deb is my new miracle cat sitter. Thanks so much!!”
“Olga was amazing! She took great care of our cat, sent lots of photos and thoughtful updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She also spent time playing with our kitty and even brought her own toy to make playtime more fun. She is kind, reliable, and clearly truly loves animals. We would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐱❤️”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and have experience caring for all kinds of animals. I’ve had both cats and dogs since I was a kid, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, ages, and needs. I currently have a five year old Carolina Dog who I adopted from a rescue at 8 weeks old. Raising her from a puppy has given me hands on experience with puppy care, training, patience, and all the little things that come with helping a young dog grow into a happy, well adjusted companion. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away I'm currently working a part time job at home with a very flexible schedule. I have open availability during the week as well as some weekend availability. I’ll mainly care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and keep their normal routine. I’ll follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, and medications, while making sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and lots of attention. I want them to feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.
“David was wonderful with our German Shepherd, Jake. He was on time, followed our directions, cared for Jake, communicative, and for the first time ever it was the best experience for our dog while we were away.”
“My cats were looked after really well by Aqsa ! We were grateful to have Aqsa agree to look after our cats within a weeks notice. We felt comfortable and relived to keep our cats in her care and was very responsive.”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my cats while I was away! I especially appreciate you going above and beyond to help with the faulty fire alarm that kept going off. What could have been an incredibly stressful situation was so much easier knowing they were in such good hands. I’m so grateful for your kindness, flexibility, and care! 🩷🩷”
“Lori is amazing!! She always sent detailed notes and pictures of my cats and all the chores. She took the time to gain the trust of my nervous cat and they had lots of play time (:”
About: Hi, my name is Kira. (Preferred name: Chanell) I may appear new to Rover, but I promise this isn’t my first rodeo. Pre Covid I was a sitter here on rover with a close friend of mine. This is MY first solo rover account so I’m open to question if anyone has any reservations about my abilities. I’m a big animal advocate. Since a little girl I’ve always had deep feelings when it came to animals. I believe their feelings matter so much and if you pay close attention they do communicate with us. I’d love to care for your babies while you’re away. I’m here to help in anyway I can & provide peace of mind for you & them. It’s more than a gig. It’s my life’s goal to make a difference. One pet at a time. I work M-T and my weekends are always free. I’m very into fitness and getting moving. Caring for your fur baby would be a great addition to my routine. I want your fur baby to be as comfortable as possible which is why I currently only provide drop-in visits & walks. I want to keep them in their world instead of trying to pull them into mine. I adapt to their space so that they can continue to feel safe and secure.
About: Hi! We are Anjali and Ryan, lifelong animal lovers that wants to help take care of your loved ones. Based on schedules, sometimes do visits separately or together, meaning your loved ones get double the care and we can give you more flexibility! We like to focus on you and your pets needs, and adapting myself to y’all’s specific ways of doing things. We are big on taking photos and giving you lots of updates! Anjali currently work from home, so your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and care if you’d like me to stay with them! Our goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether that’s multiple walks, feeding schedules, or just lots of cuddles. I work from home, so outside of meeting times, I have lots of flexibility to meet your pets needs and wants! I also send regular updates with photo/video so you always know how your pet is doing. I have always been a conscious guest in homes. I’d be extra diligent to be sure I’m taking care of your pets and your home during any services. Being welcomed into someone’s life and home is a big deal to me, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll be sure to go at the pace of your pets, giving both you and them the reassurance that they can trust me.
“Sydney was great with all of our kitties, including giving medication and extra TLC! She was communicative and willing to do anything needed. (She was also wonderful with our dogs, who traveled with us, but loved meeting her!)”
“Olivia did a fantastic job watching over my two cats--one of which is a kitten. When she noticed he was knocking over my LEGO sets, she put them out of reach which is going above and beyond! I highly recommend her services and will be reaching out again when I need someone to watch my kitties.”
“Suzanne was phenomenal with my dog and took great care of him during visits while I was out of town. Walks, belly rubs, and play time, she sent detailed updates and ensured he was well taken care of.”
About: I’ve cared for my roommates’ two dogs while they were at work during the day. We’d spend time relaxing together, watching TV, going for runs, and practicing basic commands like “paw” and “sit.” I really enjoyed getting to know each dog individually and learning their unique personalities, needs, habits, and learning styles. While I’ve never personally owned a dog, I’ve always loved caring for and walking my friends’ dogs whenever they need someone they can trust. I currently work from home so I have a very open and flexible schedule! I enjoy walking pets just as much as I love laying around with them. Especially when the weather is nice I can turn our walks into a longer stroll. I would love the opportunity to be a friendly, dependable, and caring sitter and walker for your pets! 🐾❤️ I live in a one bedroom apartment with an upstairs loft and additional outdoor balcony with more than enough room and furniture for your fur baby to roam and relax on. My complex includes a dog park along with a nearby shady trail for walks.
About: I’m a caring and reliable animal lover with experience caring for a variety of animals. Most of my experience is with cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable providing plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, and basic daily care. I also have experience caring for smaller animals, including rabbits, goldfish and other animals found in my pictures. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs companionship, exercise, feeding, or simply someone trustworthy to keep them company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own! 🐾 I work four 10-hour shifts per week as a nurse, with two of those shifts being remote, which gives me added flexibility to provide care and attention throughout the day. I also have weekends and holidays off, allowing plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and quality time with your pet! I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, attention, and plenty of love. I take the time to learn each pet’s individual personality, routine, preferences, and needs so they feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I’ll follow their normal feeding, medication, exercise, and potty routines as closely as possible and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, cared for, and right at home while they’re with me.
About: Huge animal lover here! I’m the live-in aunt of two sweet Golden Doodles (Winston and Winslow), as well as the cat mom to two Siamese (Boots and Kiwi) - all of which I’m totally obsessed with. Having taken full time care of all of them for 4 years, as well as many family and friends’ pet sitting opportunities, I’m excited to expand and offer the same attentive, loving care to your pets. Whether it’s daily walks or cozy drop-in visits, I treat every animal like my own with reliable updates and personalized attention. I work later afternoons at 3:30 so I’m available for morning and afternoon walks before 2pm! My schedule is very consistent so I’m available for recurring visits. I’ve gone to many homes to pet sit for multiple days at a time. I help keep the animals calm and feel comfortable even with separation anxieties.
“Anna Naomi took care of my dog Chloe while I was on vacation and she was amazing. Great communication, flexible schedule, attentive to every detail on the care instructions. My dog enjoyed her company and felt comfortable with Anna Naomi while I was away. I highly recommend Anna Naomi to take care of your fur baby.”
About: I have been taking care of animals (as pets) since 2010 including dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I respect pets’ boundaries, but always down for a cuddle! I would be able to assist with routine pet care: walks, being fed/filling up water, cleaning litter, etc. I do not have any background in training puppies or taking care of pets with disabilities. However, if you provide thorough instructions, I am confident I can follow them adequately. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I enjoy building my day around walks, playtime, and quality time with pets, making sure they get attention and consistency they deserve. I make sure to set aside time to play with my pets (two cats - a tabby and black cat) to make sure they are active and get that necessary playtime in. Additionally, I am in tune to their communication and what that means for them. Also, love to give them cuddles as they are cuddly cats. However, boundaries are super important. Like cats, I love my personal space.
About: I have vast past experience in animal behavior-training, nail trims, medication administration for specialized care. My compassion for animals towards their happiness, health snd safety Pet care fits into my everyday life of employment and my day to day routine. It balances out my work life being as taking care of animals is my passion and enjoyment. I care my pets as if they were my own child, by tending to their everyday needs, feeding, cleaning and making sure they have play time!

Tori did yet another absolutely phenomenal job taking care of our cats while we were on a trip! She went above and beyond for us, was extremely communicative and our cats were sooo happy to see her again. Thank you so much! We look forward to booking with you again in the future!
Hannah was wonderful! Our automatic feeder wasn’t working and she was able to come over that morning to check on our babies! Thanks so much for responding right away and giving us peace of mind while we were out of town. Hannah is the best and we’d recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter who always gives our kitties lots of pets and play!
Ben was great! He was on time for each visit, did what was asked for our pets and plants, asked questions, reported issues, and communicated about the pets throughout the week. He was tidy and even walked the dog for miles in the summer heat! I will definitely hire him again.
Kaitlin was amazing with my cats while we traveled for the holidays. You can tell that she loves animals and made sure they were safe and well cared for. I will be using her again for whenever we travel ( we travel a lot). Our chonky boy smokie totally fell in love with her ( I am a little jealous lol). I came home to happy pets who made a new friend. I would totally recommend her.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Carpenter is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $29 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.

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 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.

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 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.
