I have assisted in training exercises and am well versed in counting and reinforcing trained behavior. I have 5 years of experience with doggie day care and basic grooming services. I am available on weekdays and weekends for walking, pet sitting, or general pet care needs. I am a full time artist, so my schedule is relatively flexible.

Selena was able to watch my cat with only three days notice. My regular sitter canceled at the last minute before my vacation. My cat was happy and healthy when I returned home. The feeding schedules were a little different than he was used to because we were squeezed in at the last minute.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats ranging in ages my entire life. I would love to treat your pets like my own. I have experience with separation anxiety in dogs, mischievous chewers, puppy training, and severe food allergies. I am confident in giving medicines to your fur babies as my own often find themselves taking medications. I also know how important maintaining your pups daily routine can be while you are gone. I am a teacher on summer break, therefore I am available all day to work with your pet babies! Would love to hang out with your pet on the greenway or just in the yard and fill my days with some puppy smiles. I currently have two dogs of my own Biscuit and Rusty with very unique needs. Rusty has been my companion for the last 9 years. He’s been through many moves and adjustments with me. Currently Rusty is beginning to show signs of arthritis so we are adjusting our care to best fit our little old man. More recently, my husband and I adopted a 1 1/2 year old Pit Bull named Biscuit. Biscuit has allowed me to gain experience caring for a dog with extreme allergies. She is the most playful of the two and is always keeping us laughing. I have experience giving daily medicine as well as dealing with an upset doggy stomach. We love our two fur babies and treat them as part of our family and I will extend this love and care to your fur babes too!

We were so worried about our non social dogs getting to know a new person. Whitney knew exactly how to handle Hank. After a couple visits he loves her or the treats (not sure) but we feel comfortable with her being able to come in the house without us. Whitney is great!

Lejuana did a wonderful job taking care of my kitties. One was sick and needed multiple pills. Lejuana went to great strides to get her to take the meds. Also provided extra TLC for a very unhappy kitty. Would definitely get Lejuana again whenever needed!

I was most pleased with leaving my cats with Katie for 2 weeks. She came by twice a day to feed and tend the litter box. She was punctual everyday and gave the cats the attention they needed. I will definitely book with her again.

About: I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m patient with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention so every dog feels at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekends. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks for exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. I also provide plenty of attention, playtime, and follow the pet’s normal feeding schedule and routines. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away.

Will is awesome! This was our first time using Will and he did a great job. I was gone for 9 days and was updated constantly. One of my cats gets spicy and temperamental. Will handled it with ease and got her back to feeling comfortable within a few days. When I came home my cats were happy and my house was clean. Everything was just as I left it. Thanks will!

About: I have had a dog of my own for 8 years until I moved out of my parents house, and have assisted my roommates with many dog sittings/walks. I'm currently available all days of the week since school is not in session, I do not have a job so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have a yard, but not fenced in. I am comfortable with taking dogs out on a leash and have a comfortable neighborhood to provide great long walks!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Catawba

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 317 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Catawba. 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.

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
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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.
