“Lorraine was great with our cat! She checked in after her visit. She even went out of her way to ask if we wanted our faucets dripping over a couple cold nights. We will absolutely book her again!”
“Faith never fails to impress me. My cat just loves her so much and was looking for her when I came home. She left my home in better shape than she found it, and I came home to the content and happy cat. I’ve already booked her for another trip I have coming up.”
“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! 🩷🩷”
“Sabrina was great! The was very attentive to our cats and communicated anything that seemed abnormal. One of our kitties is pretty fussy with new people but she was able to get him to warm up and play. She was also very consistent with their feeding and meds.”
“Andrei did an excellent job taking care of both of my dogs. I highly recommend him for any breed. I have a large mastiff, and he and Andre instantly bonded. Andrea is also very communicative and responsive when needed.”
“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!”
About: I've had dogs since I was born and I gained a lot of experience caring for sick and elderly dogs as I grew up with my dogs. I've been my friend's chosen cat sitter for four years, caring for all 5 of their cats, young and old. I have a flexible part time schedule where I am available most weekdays and some weekends. I am happy to spend nights or just stop by during the day. Let me know exactly how to make your pets feel at home and safe and I will do everything I can to make them feel special all the time.
About: I am a nurse and have been a pet owner and lover since I was 8 years old. I am a caring, trustworthy person that would be happy to help you with your pet needs on my time off ❤️ I work full time, but can help for drop in visits or walks in weekends or after work if time allows. Would love to help you! I am very responsible as a pet owner myself. Their safety, comfort and care are my priority. I love taking my dogs for walks and care for my cats. Will do the same for your pets.
About: I have a lot of experience with dogs-and cats from tiny to humongous. Walking, playing, feeding, administration of meds and snuggles, cleaning litter and scooping poops of course. I have taken care of a baby racoon, fish, a reptile here and there, and rabbits. (Unfortunately I am not able to work with dogs who have any aggressive behavior with other dogs, or that are leash reactive, such as hard pulling.) I am looking to enjoy time with animals and a part time job would be great! I am flexible regarding schedule. I look forward to meeting wonderful floofs! At home, I have my Skittles (emotional support animal-Cat ( and my roommate's Great Pyrenees Zeke. Skitty is indoor, Zeke is indoor but loves walks. They are both fed twice a day. Zeke often needs medication for anxiety, and Skitty has a large litter box that is cleaned often.
About: I’ve cared for many types of animals, I take time to learn their personality—social, shy, or “don’t look at me too long”—and I go at their pace while making sure they’re safe and happy. Hi! I'm Cass. As a local pet sitter, I offer reliable and compassionate care for your furry friends. I ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for while you're away. From feeding and walking to providing companionship and administering medication, I tailor my services to meet each pet's unique needs :) I take time to understand each pet’s personality and what makes them comfortable. I go at their pace, build trust, and learn their preferences. After that, I tailor my care—whether that’s play, companionship, or space—so they feel safe and happy.
“Katelyn did a wonderful job taking care of our two kitties! She was trustworthy, caring, and detail-oriented. She took the time to play with them during each visit, and we absolutely loved receiving the pictures she shared. We plan to use Katelyn again in the future and highly recommend her to any pet owner looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
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: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for over a decade. Helping out neighbors with drop in visits or over night stays. I grew up in a household with many animals. I work a full time job, my typical hours are 10am to 6pm, so I am only available to care for your pets before or after my work day. I’m very kind and patient with all dogs/cats and can go with the flow that they need to feel safest and loved. I’m comfortable with crating and leashing pets.
“Alexis was awesome with our cats. We were expecting someone just to make sure they had food, water, and clean litter. But Alexis did so much more. She spent time with our cats and they began looking forward to her visits each morning. Well, Sweets did, Salty was more about the food. We have never left the cats for such a long period of time so they were stressed for sure. But Alexis gave them some stability and love while they were alone. Thank you Alexis. We have 2 more weddings later this year and really hope Alexis is available again.”
“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!!!”
About: I have had many animals growing up, from hermit crabs to guinea pigs, to cats and dogs and fish! My family has fostered previously and I have been able to help with that process. I am between jobs and am fairly flexible! Whether it be for a walk, a drop in, or an overnight stay, I have lots of availability! For dogs, I love to explore the neighborhood by going on walks, or checking out a nearby park. I enjoy playing fetch in the backyard. For cats, playing indoors and giving many scratches!
About: I’ve pet sit a variety of pets; dogs, cats, rats, hawks, fish, and I'm always looking for more. I adapt really well to each animals needs, and so I always love taking care of more exotic pets! I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years, and I'm always willing to learn how to better take care of your pet! I am comfortable feeding raw/frozen or live food to pets. I’m currently in college and since I have classes in the afternoon I’m not able to pet sit dogs at the moment. Mornings and evenings are best, and I’m free every day of the week. Your pet’s and home’s safety is extremely important to me, so I’m very careful when entering and exiting homes, and while inside, I always keep the doors shut and locked. I make sure to put your packages and mail somewhere safe. And I always double check the lock when leaving. I would love to hear your concerns because I want to make sure that you’re comfortable and reassured on your trip.
“Melanie was absolutely fantastic. Punctual, great communication and the furry babies took to her immediately. Would HIGHLY recommend her, unless it's when I need her. Thanks so much Melanie!”
About: I've been working with animals since I was 18, when I began volunteering with my local humane society, where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, socializing, and handling animals. I went on to work as a veterinary assistant at an animal clinic/hospital, where I learned more about handling animals and administering medications for cats and dogs. I no longer work at a veterinary office because I'm currently in an online bachelor's degree program that makes a traditional full-time job difficult to manage. But my schooling is incredibly flexible and I love working with animals, so part-time pet care is perfect for me! I have done pet-sitting for cats and dogs in the past, but I am also comfortable working with fish (I had a beloved betta fish in high school). I am definitely open to caring for other animals, but I would need additional instruction to compensate for my inexperience. I have particular experience with special needs animals because my own cat, Birdie, has hind limb paresis. She scoots around instead of walking, wears diapers, and has daily oral medication. "Special needs" encompasses a wide range of conditions, so I won't pretend to know how to care for all disabled animals but my personal experience provides me with the patience and flexibility to learn about the particular needs of your pet. I'm currently in a flexible online degree program that allows me to shape my schedule around my clients. Pet care through rover offers me supplemental income and ensures that I get out of the house regularly! I understand that every animal is different, so I don't have a universal approach to pet-sitting. I believe enrichment is essential to an animal's wellbeing and I incorporate that into my pet care. I make sure to take time to play with pets as well as feed, walk, or clean after them.

Sabrina did a fantastic job! She was thoughtful, communicative and proactive. She even checked in about packages that we received. We feel reassured knowing our two cats are in her care. We appreciated how attentive she was and would definitely recommend her!
I can’t say enough great things about the care she provided for my cats over the weekend on short notice. I was a bit worried as I have never had any experiences with a pet sitter prior to this and my cats are a little bit more on the shy side but from the first drop in they came out to greet her and were happily playing! She was always providing me with updates during the drop ins as well as the best quality pictures. I am forever thankful to have found the best pet sitter to take care of my kitties whenever I need it!
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!
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.
Kelly was fantastic! I appreciated that she asked me questions during our initial meeting so she was fully prepared to watch my two cats. This gave me a lot of peace of mind in leaving my babies alone. I will definitely ask her to watch them again, in the future.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Cary is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $31 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 .
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 .

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.
