“Angela gave good and kind care to our three cats for six days. We really appreciated her being available to us on pretty short notice and keeping us updated on the kitties! She’s a kind person and communicated well with us!”
“Mary did a good job of following all my directions for caring for an indoor cat and outdoor cats, and left the house very clean. Plus, she even figured out my directions for watering multiple plants, which were complicated! I'll hire her again.”
About: For 15 years I ran a successful dog walking business outside of Boston, and have now returned to the northwest to help my mother age in place. I'm missing my animal friends, and am ready to help with yours! I'm experienced and mature, conscientious, reliable and careful, with the same high expectations for myself that you have. I understand the importance of good relationships with anyone you bring into your pet's life - both for your pet and for you - and building relationships and community is what I most loved about my dog walking business. My schedule is quite flexible! Being retired definitely opens up my availability, and I aim to be as accommodating and helpful as possible to meet your pet's needs. Safety and privacy are important priorities, and I am always respectful of both. I have years of experience accessing clients' homes and caring for their pets - more than 250 pets over the years - without any problems. I am professional and experienced, with a proven record.
About: Hi, I’m Talena! I've always had a natural passion for dog handling and consider myself an amateur dog trainer. I use positive reinforcement techniques to keep dogs engaged, happy, and safe. Whether your little one needs a high-energy playtime or structured guidance, I'd love to provide the dedicated care they deserve! I work at a local credit union, which provides me with a highly stable and structured schedule. This flexibility allows me to easily commute to your home and dedicate plenty of quality time to caring for, feeding, and playing with your pets in their own comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strictly follow their established routines, secure all entry points, double-check leashes during walks, and keep harmful items completely out of reach to ensure a safe, stress-free environment.
“This was the first time we had left our kitties alone for the weekend, so it was so reassuring to have Theresa stop in to check in them. We are so glad to have found her and know our kitties are in good hands!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life — my mom has always had dogs and my dad has always had cats, so I’ve learned how to care for and connect with all kinds of pets from a young age. Right now, I have a playful kitten of my own, and my mom has two dogs that I help care for whenever I visit. I’m patient, responsible, and always attentive to each pet’s unique routine and personality. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just quiet company, I make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and cared for exactly how their owner would want. You can always count on me for reliable care, consistent updates, and genuine love for every furry friend I look after. Pet care is already a part of my everyday life — I have a kitten at home and spend time with my mom’s dogs regularly, so feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles are built into my routine. My work schedule is flexible enough to allow plenty of time for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. Whether it’s morning visits or evening check-ins, I make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel comfortable and safe. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walks to playtime and bedtime — so everything feels familiar. I take extra care to keep their environment clean, secure, and stress-free, and I always communicate with owners so they know their pets are happy and well cared for. I take pride in following every detail of your pet’s care instructions — from feeding schedules to favorite walks and play routines. In your home, I make sure everything stays tidy and that your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I always provide updates and communication so you know your pets are happy, healthy, and cared for exactly how you’d want.
“Nicole was awesome and I could tell Bug really liked her from the many pictures she sent while I was gone. I’ll definitely book with her again in the future. Thanks so much Nicole!”
About: I have dog sat multiple times for family friends, usually 3 dogs at a time, no problem. The owners always return to their dogs being happy and healthy. I am self employed now so I am very flexible and will be available pretty much all day to take care of your fur babies. I am very flexible caring for your animals in whatever way you’re most comfortable with and whatever ways work well for your fur baby.
“Bridget was great! She did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 cats. She had to administer medication for 1 of my cats and kept me informed on how she was eating. I felt reassured she was eating enough because without her meds she just doesn’t eat. I loved that she sent me a daily picture of them, which wasn’t easy because they’re shy and don’t come around to any company in the house. It was like playing hide and seek but she managed to find them, lol. I recommend Bridget to care for your animals, she is trustworthy and I will definitely have her care for my cats again. Thank you so much Bridget!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 6. I grew up with a dog, people we knew had dogs, and we always had at least 1 cat in our care. Animals were what I knew. And still do. I’m intuitive when it comes to your furry child’s needs and currently look over the pets of my family and friend’s while they’re away. I can generally get somewhere after work at around 530pm. I love to walk and can provide daily walks for pets. On the weekends, I can make myself available for all day and care :) I’m in a small new studio so I’d prefer to watch pets at their homes. Many animals feel more at home in their familiar environment, removing the extra anxiety since they may already be stressed without their caregiver. I’m very attentive to your furry child’s needs, with water, food, walks, playtime, basic training etc. :)

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Charter Oak
Mckenna cared for my very shy cat Tulip while we were away at a wedding. She was very reliable and did a great job with the litter box routine as well as feeding. Tulip refused to engage with her, but Mckenna continued to talk to her under the bed. This is nothing new - Tulip is a one person cat and I appreciate that she was well cared for in my absence.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 3,317 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Charter Oak. 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 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.
