Ashley is amazing. Reliable, responsive, flexible, trustworthy and incredibly kind. She did drop in visits for us for a week while we were away and sent us updates, pictures and videos and made us feel so comfortable knowing our girls were being cared for. Will definitely book with her again!

Leslie was great! She left our house the way she found it and loved on my sweet kitties while we were away. She sent pictures letting me know they were ok, which I very much appreciated! She followed my food directions perfectly. She was very accommodating and didn't mind changing out my cats' stinky litterbox lol ? If I have to leave town again, I will definitely use her again! Highly recommend!

About: I’ve been rescuing animals since I was 11. I’ve spent many years managing a 5 doctor veterinary hospital. I treat your pets as I would treat my own. All the pets I’ve cared for have come to know me as their Aunt Sunny. Your pets will receive the type of care you want them to receive. I won’t just drop in and go. Time is spent walking, brushing, playing and loving your pets. I’ve trained many dogs and have spent time as a vet tech. I’ve owned my own pet sitting business for many years and always the go to person for my family and friends. Many references available. I’m semi retired so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I come when you want me to be there. I’m available 7 days a week morning, noon and night. I care for your pets as you would. I encourage your detail instructions so they receive the same care as they would if you were home. Pictures and videos are sent so you can be ensured of your pet’s happiness.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have cared for dogs, cats, and even bunnies throughout my life. I worked with dogs with all types of personalities at a dog daycare. I played with them, fed them and cleaned their kennels. I volunteered with guide-dog organizations, helping socialize puppies in training, and I’ve looked after pets of all ages and needs. I also cared for my own senior dog when she had cancer, giving her daily medicine and making sure she felt comfortable and loved. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m very flexible and make time each day for check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I plan my schedule around my visits so each pet gets consistent, reliable care. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by following their normal routines and any instructions you provide. I take care to keep doors secure, clean up after them, and monitor their behavior closely. I treat every home with respect and every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I give my own.

About: Hi! I have grown up with pets my whole life. I have cared for labs and dachshunds to birds and hamster so I am well versed in interaction and first aid. I can also care for reptiles, amphibians and insects/bugs as I have proper training in labs and rehab centers. I am currently going to school for zoology and black world studies and have worked two years as a zoology and lab tech assistant. So you can be assured you animal is in good care. I am versed in behavioral activites, nutrition, training, and age grouped interactions between animals and humans as well as many of the signs for common sicknesses and fatigues within breeds. I love being outdoors and playing games in order to give the animals the ability to express their energy in an appropriate manner. You animal will be in great hands. I also make usually make pet friendly treats if I have advanced notice! I am currently self employed so my schedule works around me. Animal care always comes first, after all a steady schedule makes for a happy pet I have two small dogs one is a baby one is an old man but they get along great and play like puppies. They are friendly and would love to keep your fur baby company. However, if your dog is not up for company for any reason there is a nice sized crate in which the animals that reside here or your own (which ever you are more comfortable with) can reside it. I love to play, study mannerisms and behaviors, I like toys that make their brains work so they feel fulfilled and tired after a good session of play. Walks, breaks and water are a good way to bond and pass the time. Cuddle bugs are always welcome as well. Nail trimming and grooming available if needed.

Kelsey did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She was very responsive when we updated her with tips and last minute concerns with our cats. She updated us with pictures and made sure each of our cats was doing well while we were away. We will definitely be trusting Kelsey to care for our pets in the future.

About: Pet care is my full time job, so I have open availability! I am also a proud owner of a fully trained German Shepard. I’m open to doing dog walking/playtime, day sitting and overnights! I’m a full time student graduating in criminal justice with bachelor degree this coming summer 2027 who is responsible and dependable. All prices are negotiable depending on the needs. I’ve been a pet lover and caretaker since I was 10 years old. I’m 22 yrs old now and a proud owner of a 5 yr old German Shepherd who is fully trained.

About: I’ve had pets as far as I can remember. I’ve always been the one to take them outside for walks or potty breaks. Always fed them. I have volunteered at a dog rescue for 3 years training and handling dogs of all sizes. I have a dog of my own. My beautiful husky. Whom I spend as much time as I can with him. But am willing to show that love and attention to your pet as well. I prefer to keep the pet in the comfort of their own home. Being somewhere new and not familiar can stress pets out. I’d rather they be comfortable in their own home.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Catawba

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 1,899 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Catawba. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Catawba stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Catawba. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
