“My kiddos all love Kylie and she does a great job. She is super dependable, always on time and always sends pictures of my happy babies. I will definitely book her again!”
“Mary is fantastic! She watched our critters for a week while we were away. She did everything we asked and then some. She checked-in every evening and sent very detailed updates. She also sent lots of photos of our girls. We will definitely hire Mary again!”
About: I’ve always loved caring for animals and have been pet sitting for neighbors and family friends for years. I recently graduated from Texas Tech University with a degree in Animal Science, where I took courses focused on animal health, behavior, and training. During my time in Lubbock, I volunteered at a veterinary clinic and several animal shelters, where I gained hands on experience socializing and training dogs and cats with a variety of personalities and needs. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to their normal routine, playing with them, or simply keeping them company, I strive to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing them with the best care possible! Since I recently graduated, I currently have a flexible schedule and am not working a full-time job. This allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to ensuring your pets receive the care and companionship they deserve. I care for pets in their own homes, where they are most comfortable. I follow all owner instructions and make sure pets receive the exercise, attention, and care they need while you’re away.
“Yazmin was amazing with xena! She went above and beyond to make sure she was happy, safe, and loved while I was away. I could tell she truly cares about animals, and her updates gave me total peace of mind. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate!”
“Can not say enough🫂I was concern leaving fur babies but after meeting and getting daily updates I was over joyed!!! I will definitely re book in the future. Very attentive to my fur babies needs🙂”
About: While I've never been paid to pet sit, I've checked in on my neighbor's dogs upon request, feeding them and taking them outside when necessary. It's impossible to estimate just how long I've cared for animals. While I'm on the hunt for a full or part time job over the summer, my availability will be flexible. As of now, I will be available at any time on any day. I've been around all sorts of animals in my life, currently living with my family's two boy dogs, Tucker and Charlie. With them, I've become familiar with using crates, feeding schedules, playtime, and of course, cuddles.
“Haley was absolutely amazing with our two cats. We also ended up getting caught by a blizzard and needed her services for an extra 2 days and she was so willing and responsive to help us. It really meant the world to us and it's exactly the kind of peace of mind you want if you're going to trust someone with the care of your furry family members.”
“Brad is great! I set out to make a more comfortable experience for my dogs while I was away and Brad provided that. The pictures speak volumes! He's on time, tentative, and involved. My boys loved him. Thank you for keeping them safe and updating me with your visits!”
“We hired Shawnette to check in on our dogs while we were away for a quick cheer competition. She was absolutely fantastic with our two greyhounds. One is super friendly and can be a handful while the other is super shy and timid. Shawnette was able to win over the shy one and handle the overzealous one. We absolutely recommend her and will be using her again.”
“Chantal was so great with my pup. She went above and beyond by walking my fur baby every visit (I couldn’t book both the walk and drop-in visit at the same time) upon my request. Chantal can be trusted: she checked in and left right on time and followed all my requests. She even played with my pup every visit. Chantal is now my go-to person every time I leave town. Thank you, Chantal!”
“We asked Alexis to come over for four consecutive days to feed, check on everything, and spend a little time with our kitty while we were away. She did an excellent job and went above and beyond. We are very satisfied with Alexis. Our cat is very sociable with strangers, so we knew that she would greet her and seek attention. She played with her, fed her, and even sent plenty of pictures. Everything was in order upon our return home and we know our cat was taken care of. Again, highly recommend!”
“Amazing, amazing, amazing sitter! She was amazing with my cats and was great with communication. She was even able to do a emergency drop in last minute. Will book again and again!”
“Courtney was terrific -- reliable, kind, and went the extra mile. My pups had never spent the night alone before, and Courtney was on-time and gave them the right amount of attention to make them feel good. She's terrific... Two thumbs up!”
“I was a bit nervous about trying Rover for the first time, but Kayla was amazing! She stepped in last minute and was incredibly flexible. She sent plenty of updates and even took some funny photos of my dog, which was so reassuring. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of many pets, I’ve pet volunteered at the SAHS for about 6 months, and I’ve done pet sitting for my friends and family and neighbors for about a year or longer and I am currently working at Barkaritaville pet Resort! I always make sure that your pet(s) is happy and content while providing all the proper care for your pet(s) During the summer my availability will vary due to my job, and I am a student, so this coming fall semester I will be working part time while hopefully taking care of your pets more on the weekends, or a few days a week. I have 3 dogs in my own home, as soon as I wake up I make sure that they are fed and that they have gone outside. For my clients I arrive early, or at a set time they would like me to arrive, make sure that they have gone potty (I stand off to the side and watch) and then I prepare their food and make sure that they eat before I leave. I do sometimes walk them if requested.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life so naturally I love caring for animals! I have experience raising my own puppy from 2 months old, so I understand the patience, attention, and care young puppies need. I’ve cared for small breeds like Pugs, Frenchies, and Boston Terriers so I understand the extra attention they may require, especially during walks and playtime. I also have experience with larger dogs, including Pit Bulls and German Shepherds, so I’m comfortable handling dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I currently live with a cat and have plenty of experience feeding, cleaning up after, playing with, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m dependable, patient, and will treat your pets like family. I’m currently unemployed. I previously worked at Panda Express and Raising Canes but quit to have a break and do something fun and something I love like caring for your animals! So that being said I have a lot of free time! Any day of the week I’m available to take care of your babies. Only times I’m not available is Tuesdays from 6pm to 8pm, Thursdays from 9am to 12pm, and Saturdays from 8am to 12pm. Those times are dedicated to training for the Marine Corps but other than that my time is dedicated to caring for your babies. I offer in-home pet sitting and dog walking services to help keep your fur baby comfortable in their normal environment. If your dog enjoys adventures, I can also take them to a nearby dog park for exercise, playtime, and fun. Your pet will always have plenty of fresh water. With the summer heat being here, I’ll make sure outdoor time stays safe and not too long. I’ll follow all feeding schedules exactly as instructed and can provide medications or any extra care your pet may need.
About: My dog of 15 years recently passed away last year and I miss getting to care for him, Rover will be my way of giving back! I work full time but I’m off every weekend and can care for your pets when you’re busy! I also can drop in some mornings during the weekday or evenings! I have a fenced backyard, I can learn easily if anything needs to be done specially for a pet and I am patient! I’m excited to get to know your pet family member <3

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Castroville
Mary did an excellent job caring for our cats! Her communication throughout the visits was outstanding, which was especially important since we were traveling internationally. Being across the globe and trusting someone with our babies is no small thing, but Mary far exceeded our expectations. Our cats really warmed up to her over the course of her visits, which says everything about how caring and attentive she was with them. We definitely hope to use her services again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Castroville on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 989 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Castroville. 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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
