“Jordan did a great job with our kitty! She was very prompt, followed all of the instructions left for Ruthie wonderfully, and did an excellent job communicating. She even sent the cutest pictures of our very pleased cat who was insisting on more pets and cuddles. I was very confident that our cat and home were in good, reliable hands. Jordan was thoughtful, professional, and showed a really kind heart for animals. Will be hiring again!”
“I truly appreciate the way Hajnalka cares for my kitties. She shows them the care and love that I do, as if they were her own. When I go out of town, I always know my kitties are in good hands with her!”

“Sophia is amazing!! She did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Oreo. Oreo is a loving cat also and looked forward to Sophia’s daily visits. He would start meowing before she could even open the door. She cleaned up his litter that he tracked through the house and ensured he got a full 30 minutes of playtime. She also checked that he had fresh water daily. I would definitely use her again if I’m out of town.”
About: I am currently a dog walker and have worked at shelters since I was 13. I love animals more than I love anything on Earth. Time spent with dogs is time well spent. My passion in this world is to take care of animals and make sure that they are the happiest they can possibly be at all times. I hope to one day open my own dog boarding facility where I can fulfill my dreams. I love dogs of all shapes and kinds. I have dealt with special needs dogs, senior dogs, sick dogs, etc. I am friendly and enthusiastic. I would treat your pet like my own at all times and love it like I would mine. Please ask me any questions you may have! I work a full time job, but have plenty of time before and after shifts that I can make myself available for your pet needs. I love doing drop in visits and dog walks for my clients. I get to bring a little bit of fun to the pets day and still fit that into my daily schedule.
“We are beyond grateful for Jayla! She took amazing care of our two Sphynx babies while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated with photos and messages every visit. Thank you!!”
“Jariah was great with my cat! My cat is super skittish with new places and people, and Jariah was super understanding of that and kept her as calm as possible.”
About: I've cared for animals my entire life, from their earliest days through their senior years and end-of-life care. My experience spans a variety of pets, including fish, birds, reptiles, cats, and dogs. I'm new to Rover, but not to pet care! As someone who uses pet care services myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, attentive, and communicative. I treat every pet with patience and care, follow their routines, and provide updates to give you peace of mind while you're away. Your pets' comfort and your trust are my priorities! I have a flexible schedule and am willing to work with you in order to find the schedule that works best for you and your pets. Your pets' safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain their routines, and make sure doors, gates, and their surroundings are secure. I treat your home with the same respect I would my own, keeping things tidy and following your household rules. I also believe in clear communication and regular photo updates, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.
“Ashlee did an amazing job taking care of my three cats while I was away! She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural way with animals—my cats absolutely loved her. It was such a relief knowing they were in such good hands. She also took the time to water my plants, which I really appreciated. Everything was well cared for and I came home to happy pets and a thriving home. I highly recommend Ashlee to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was little. I have a mischievous rescue chihuahua named Bolt and a sweet hearted chiweenie named Louie. They’ve been family members for over 7 years now. I have also volunteered at the SPCA taking care of their puppies and older dogs. I am currently working part time and am available to care for your animals most mornings and afternoons. I am usually available weekends as well! I live in a townhouse with plenty of room for animals with a park nearby. Most of the services I offer are drop ins, but I am very attentive to the details and instructions provided by my customers.
“Jason watched our two cats — one elderly and independent, and one young, shy, and anxious — during our two‑week international trip, and he was amazing. He came twice a day, handled meals, litter boxes, and even supervised their outdoor patio time. He never missed a visit or check-in. He also spent extra time on the visits if he could, and helped us with mail/packages that arrived while we were gone. Really above and beyond. He sent photos and detailed notes every visit, which made us feel totally at ease while we were away. The best part was how he bonded with our extra‑shy cat. She usually hides from everyone, but Jason spent extra time with her each visit, letting her warm up at her own pace. After a few days, they were basically best buddies — she wasn’t hiding anymore and actually came out to greet him. It made us so happy that our babies were happy! We’d book Jason again in a heartbeat.”

Any rules and procedures that you lay out will be followed. Once I get comfortable with your pet I’ll treat them just like my own and provide anything I can to make sure they receive the best care while waiting for you to come home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Carrollwood
Thank you for taking such great care of my cats and home. We really appreciate it and your rover card and photos are such a welcome and rejoiced treat for us while we are on vacation, it brings us such comfort knowing you are watching them. Thank you for going out of your way to get crickets for my leopard gecko and all the slow blinking and photos of our shy girl Poe. Grey and the kittens and Poe in her own way all love you!
Morgan was amazing and I already plan on booking her again! She did hourly check-ins on my cat while I was traveling, and my cat is somewhat of a sassy girl, and takes a while to warm up to people. Seeing their relationship progress through the photos was so cute, and after a couple days she was snuggling Morgan and in her lap - which does NOT happen easily! I came back to a kitty who I knew was well taken care of, and my place was in perfect condition, with a nice note from Morgan. 100% recommend her!
Anessa is by far the most amazing sitter I’ve ever had. My cat Nunu warmed up to Anessa instantly by her calm demeanor. Anessa was incredibly patient and respectful of his boundaries. Instead of forcing interaction, she simply stood still and let him come to her on his own terms.She took such great care of him, followed all of my instructions carefully, made sure he was fed, and spent time playing with him. I also really appreciated all of the pictures and updates she sent throughout the visits. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. You can truly tell that Anessa understands animals and genuinely cares about them. She went above and beyond to make sure my shy little guy felt safe and loved. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive pet sitter!
Alyssa is great. My pets take to her very well. She really engages and interacts with my fur babies and ensures she’s mindful to accommodate any requested needs for either of my cats. She’s punctual reliable and communicates well. I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with her!
Jordan was amazing as always! She took great care of our new puppy and our cat who she has cared for before. She is great at communicating and takes amazing pictures to let us know everything is going well. I can’t recommend her enough, we can tell our pets love her too!
Marisa was absolutely phenomenal with our two cats! We have honestly never seen someone care for them the way she did. She treated them like they were her own and always made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She even stayed longer than scheduled if she felt they needed a little extra attention, which meant so much to us. Her communication was 10/10. We received thoughtful updates, plenty of photos, and always felt completely at ease knowing our cats were in such great hands. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond, Marisa is the one. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Jessica was amazing! She came twice a day for a week to care for my cat, Luna, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She sent lots of pictures and updates of my little buddy playing, being fed, and getting plenty of love and attention, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Jessica even brought Luna extra treats and toys, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about Luna and treated her like one of her own. I would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Carrollwood is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per visit.

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 .

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.
