“I’m so happy to have Lorraine close by to check on my cats. We have a new cat who is very shy with strangers but she warmed up to Lorraine very quickly. Lorraine also gave us a lot of extra help getting our house ready for some surprise company that arrived before we got home from our trip.”
“We had such a great experience with Faith while she watched our cats and bearded dragon for a week during our vacation. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals.Throughout the week, she kept us updated with photos and little notes about how they were all doing, which made us feel connected and reassured. One of our cats has asthma and requires a daily inhaler and Faith had no problem administering it. She also kept us updated about a few issues we had in our home. We’ll definitely be calling her again for future trips. Highly recommend!”
“We had a great experience with Sabrina and we plan to ask her help again taking care of our cats in future. She sent plenty of updates and pictures and when we came back our babies were calm as if we didn't leave.”
“Andrew was a great sitter! I left Freja for 4 days and she was clearly well-taken care of. I got updates every day about the toys she played with during Andrew’s visits. I will definitely be booking Andrew the next time I need to take a trip.”
“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.”
“Caitlin was amazing. She was prompt, she kept us updated with pictures and took the best care of our babies! I highly recommend her and will def be contacting her again in the future for care!”
“Kira was amazing with my kitty and she took care of her well while I was away. She followed all the instructions and were communicative. I’d feel at ease trusting her with my kitty’s care again!”
“Jalanie , First and foremost - I want to say thank you. You truly have a deep understanding and care for cats. I am beyond thankful to have been able to go on my vacation and to not to have had to worry. ~~~ Finding a sitter that you can trust in 2025 is extremely difficult. Jalanie was thorough with all her check ins - and made sure to spend ample time with enrichment for my cats. When pet parents are away- Sitters are there only socialization. Her spending the time to play with them- meant everything to me. Jalanie is professional, Kind , and a great person. She followed all my anxious notes left out for the kitty’s food. My kitty’s love food. She even let my sweet Eloise play in the sink…. Her favorite thing!!!! 🥰 she loves water! She took lots of pictures to make sure I saw them each day. Seeing happy healthy kitty’s while I am away made me as a pet parent able to relax - and enjoy vacation rather than worry. I cannot say enough great things about Jalanie and the care she provided. I am looking forward to many more bookings in the future. If you haven’t booked her yet- This is your sign. Thank you Jalanie. Thank you so very much. ☺️🩷🐈⬛🐈🐾🐯”
About: I've had a husky and a pitbull growing up and I currently have two cats. I get along great with both. I am outgoing and calm in hectic situations. Im currently unemployed, until I move later this month, so I have plenty of time to play/care for your fur babies. Im free Sunday-Friday and I am currently not available on Saturdays. I play with my cats on a daily basis and I love playing with dogs and can follow instructions on certain feeding schedules and can seperate feed if needed for multi pet households.
About: I’m a Junior at NCSU in the Pre-Vet program! I am a certified vet assistant, worked as a kennel attendant, and I volunteer with a local cat rescue often. I have experience with aggressive, disabled, and high energy animals, as well as all types of species! I can’t wait to meet your pet and give them the best care! I am currently taking classes but I am flexible in the mornings and evenings to take care of your pet! I am often free and have a flexible schedule on weekends. I will walk dogs with awareness and attentiveness of your pet, and during house visits I will make sure your pet is comfortable, happy, and healthy! I will make sure your pet is active and playing, and I don't mind attending to other requests while you're away.
“Claire looked after my cat Ralph while my husband and I were out of town. She was very quick to respond to my request and agreed to come at very short notice. I highly recommend her and will contact her again if I need a cat sitter.”
“Lily took the best care of our cat. He really seemed to enjoy the time he spent with her and she provided regular photos and updates. We wouldn’t hesitate to request her care again.”
“Extremely responsive and available last minute to take care of my puppy when I was not able to get home during a break. She is warm and welcoming, someone I would definitely have stay over and watch my house and animals!”
“Anna is an incredible rover who was able to bond with both of our cats very quickly! She is very helpful, easy to talk to, and willing to go above and beyond for animals she is watching! We will definitely be using her again when we go out of town!”
“Miranda did a phenomenal job caring for my cat while I was away for two weeks! Her updates were always very thorough and sweet, and from the photos I could tell that my cat was having a blast every time Miranda visited. Highly recommend!!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cary
Sabrina was fantastic! Super communicative, sent us lots of photos, and was even willing to collect an order of cat food that we had shipped to top off the feeder. We felt completely at ease having her over and knew that Lexi was in great hands - the photos clearly demonstrated a very happy cat. We will absolutely be asking Sabrina to look after our pets again in the future!
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! 🩷🩷
I have had Katherine watch my pets many times over the past few years. When she’s with my pets, I know I can relax and that they’re in good care when I’m out of town. 2 of my cats can be a bit shy, but they come out of hiding when Katherine comes over to play. Thank you once again, Katherine!
Faith is always incredible with all of our pets (we have quite the crew with lots of personality and one cat with special needs and also normally scared of other people). All of our pets LOVE Faith and I always know they are in loving hands when we need to leave them behind. Our nervous cat who needs medication remembers her even after months and is so comfortable and outgoing with her, which just melts away all the scaries of leaving! I have booked Faith for taking care of our sweet pets several times over the last two years and have never considered having anyone other than Faith take care of our animals for us. We are so lucky and grateful to have met her and would highly highly highly recommend her to anyone needing care for their animal friends!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Cary is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 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.

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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 91% 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 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.
