Kaylee is the best! She came over to let out my shady with just a one hour notice and she leaves such detailed overviews, and sends so many photos! Shady loves her and is always happy when she comes for a visit.

David and Lauren were wonderful with Max! Very communicative, and lots of updates on how he was doing. I had a last minute change of plans, and another quick trip to book and they were extremely flexible and accommodating. I felt very good leaving Max in their hands while I was gone.

About: Part time for Rover but will give you and your baby my full time attention! I love animals and I even used to work at a no-kill Animal Shelter (I don't have veterinarian experience). I've lived on a farm for 10 years and had plenty of pets, exotic and native, so I'm familiar with the oddities that come with the territory of an animal that can't really tell you what's wrong. I own two 6 year old 20lb fur babies myself and they are the friendliest cats you could meet. They love Dogs but if you're pup doesn't like cats that's okay. We can work out dog sitting or taking them for a walk! I can't wait to meet you and your babies! Pick me!

About: I personally have had a bearded dragon, betta fish, a horse, I have worked at a barn, I worked at a vet clinic for 2 years, I have 3 cats of varying ages, I have 2 dogs. And had cared for my senior dog until she was 16 with all her medical needs. I have raised two of my dogs from puppies. I have bottle fed orphaned kittens. I have dealt with reactive dogs. My animals have taught me a lot. I work a lot already and I am in school but I am trying to save. So mornings and evenings are easiest for me to manage. I am flexible to the environment the animal is in and am willing to adapt to their current routine. If they need walks or play time or just let out in the yard.

Debra was awesome!!! I have several cats and a dog, and she made sure all were cared for and given love. She sent me several pictures morning and evening and a report on how everyone was doing. She made me feel comfortable leaving my babies with her. I will definitely be booking with her again.

About: I’ve grown up around multiple pets my whole life and truly love being around animals. Some people even call me the “pet whisperer” because I’m very patient and naturally connect well with pets. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making animals feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I’m also good with shy, picky, sick, senior, or stubborn pets and understand that every pet deserves personalized care and attention. I’m working part time, only a couple days of the week, so pet care is my main priority. days vary on the week but I am very flexible! I will be pet sitting, so in your home I will be clean & respectful of your things, while providing safety and comfort to your pets.

Ms. Jamryiah was very kind and patient with both me and my dog. I was initially nervous about allowing someone into my home and trusting them to care for my dog, but she did an excellent job. She communicated effectively throughout the process, and my dog truly enjoyed his time with her. I highly appreciate her professionalism and care.

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life, both puppies and senior dogs. I have also worked on ranches and helped take care of much larger animals. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs, especially when it come to distributing medicine and helping with any special exercising they might need. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your animals! I'm also available for overnight stays and just popping in throughout the day. At my home I love letting my dogs out in the yard and playing with them while I work on homework or other things. I think exercise is really important for dogs and I really try to prioritize that even if its only a short run around the yard.

About: I have owned dogs my whole life, mostly labs but have experience with other dog types as well. All dogs have a special place in my heart. I like to make your pet feel as if my home is their home as well. Any time your dog stays with me they will be treated just as I treat my own dog, with love, care, and compassion. I enjoy going on walks and would happy to take your dog on a neighborhood walk with me. I am happy to accommodate any other special requests you may have for your dogs visit. We have a dog park close by that I enjoy going to as well. Whether you are going out of town for a night or a week, I’d be happy to care for your pet My husband and I work Monday through Friday but have weekends and nights off. So your animal should be able to be alone for 8 hours. But on weekends and nights we enjoy going for walks or out to the dog park to exercise and play I have a fenced yard but dont leave animals outside by themselves. I will treat your dog just as I treat my own. I have a crate if your animal needs one it feels safer being in one.

Brittany was the perfect caretaker for my dogs. I would highly recommend her and would without a doubt hire her again. She goes above and beyond in taking care of the animals, communicating , and so many other duties I needed her to take care of. She is a super pleasant and professional lady. I immediately had peace of mind I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries which says a lot about Brittany. Thank you again girl!

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was little—they’re my favorite thing on this earth. I started pet sitting 2 years ago and it’s been a joy ever since. I provide feeding, watering, walks, bathroom breaks, medication if needed, and even overnight stays to ensure your pets get the best care possible. I only go to school 3 days a week and not for long at all, so my school schedule never interferes with my pet sitting schedule! I have a fenced in yard and 2 small dogs at home! My dogs do not have any problems with other dogs but I do keep them separated from other peoples dogs just in case! I never let them out my site at mine or a clients home.

About: I am an experienced pet sitter providing dependable care, feeding, exercise, companionship, and stability to pets needing some extra care while their owner is away. I am dedicated to ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work a very flexible job, so I am able to come to your pets at any time and enjoy spending time with them during the day! If a pet is in my home, I try to make them as comfortable as possible in a new environment. That includes a possible test visit (if wanted), and consistent updates to pet owners. If in a client home, I stick to the routine provided and ensure that the pets are safe and well cared for, and check in with pet owners consistently.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Central on Rover is $34.97 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 264 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Central. 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 Central. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
