About: I’m a passionate and open-minded individual who loves animals and enjoys spending time caring for them. I take pride in being responsible, attentive, and ensuring pets feel happy, safe, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or long walks, I’m here to provide the best care possible! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine as I enjoy staying active and being outdoors, which makes things like dog walks or playtime with pets a natural part of my day. I also value creating a calm and structured environment, so caring for animals aligns well with my sense of responsibility and attention to detail. Whether it’s feeding schedules, grooming, or just spending quality time, I make sure to prioritize their needs. I approach pet care with attentiveness and compassion, whether in my home or my client’s. In my home, I ensure pets have a clean, comfortable space, plenty of attention, and a safe environment to play and relax. I stick to feeding schedules, provide enrichment through toys and activities, and offer lots of affection to help them feel at ease. In a client’s home, I respect their routines and preferences for their pets, maintaining their feeding, exercise, and care schedules as instructed. I make sure their home is left tidy and treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel loved and secure.

About: I am looking forward to hosting dogs in my house. I have a 4 year old dog I recently adopted. He enjoys having other dogs come to visit! I'm a teacher so I am home weeknights and weekends to care for and play with your dogs. Your dog can sleep in my room or can be crated if that is preferred. I am also excited to explore my new neighborhood with dog walks in the evenings. I have recently moved to a new home that has a small front yard. There are trails nearby that I can use for dog walks.

About: I have experience with a variety of animals - I've adopted 6 cats, 3 dogs, 2 parakeets, 2 guinea pigs, and a ferret in my lifetime! I have experience with both kitties/puppies and geriatric cats and dogs, and everything in between! I love all animals and I am constantly going through trial and error to ensure they have a long fulfilling life, whether that's making fun and enriching toys for them or finding picky eaters food they love! I am taking a semester off of college while I work to become a pet groomer, so I am available most days and times! I cannot do long stays in order to take care of my pets at home as well, but I am happy to do visits and short stays! I am very conscientious of doors and safety hazards when it comes to pet proofing. Ferrets and kittens really know how to test how pet proof something is, so I am very keen on delivering a safe environment. I will make sure to supervise your dog if you have a backyard and I know the proper way to secure a leash when taking them for walks!

“I have both an indoor cat and an outdoor stray that I care for and Paige did a fantastic job taking care of both of them while I was away for a week. She even managed to get my timid cat to trust her, which is no small feat. I can absolutely recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”

About: Having grown up around dogs and cats in my house ever since I was a baby, made my love and bond for pets very strong. Being around them so much made it very obvious that they all have their own unique personalities that make them different from the rest of the other pets. I provide personalized and attentive care tailored to their unique needs I work from home so I’m very available to care for pets and give them the attention they need. I am also completely available during the weekends. My cat has plenty of interactive toys and cozy resting spots throughout the house. For in-client-home care, I follow detailed instructions to maintain their pets' routine and comfort, offering personalized attention and ensuring a smooth transition between environments

About: Hi! I’m Camille, and if there’s a dog at a party, that’s probably who I’m talking to. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal is different. Some pets want nonstop playtime, some want cuddles, and some prefer their space. I take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop in visit, or company while you’re away, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. Expect lots of updates, photos, and communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: a happy pet, a stress free owner, and plenty of tail wags along the way. 🐾💕 Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. As a server, I’m used to being active, managing my time efficiently, and staying attentive to the needs of others in a fast-paced environment. My work schedule gives me flexibility during certain parts of the day, allowing me to dedicate time to walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care is a natural fit for me. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household rules to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe in my care. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends before 3pm. I have a fenced in yard and 3 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if it’s needed.

About: I work from home M-F, but could certainly come before 8 AM and after 5. Your cat and I can unwind from the day together! If you are close by, it might be possible for me to come mid-day. On the weekends, I’m generally wide open! I want to make sure I understand where your pets feel safest and how much interaction they are craving. It’s all very personalized to the animal. For social cats, I want to ensure they have all their favorite toys at their disposal, and we can play where they like best. For more quiet, shy cats, I am happy to be a companion for them in the same room or another, just so they know they have a friend nearby if needed. You’ll tell me what’s best for you, and I’ll learn from the cat as well!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals of all ages, shapes and sizes for 5 years now! Whether you need to get your puppy’s energy out, make sure your senior pet gets their medication or need a quiet friend for your shy cat, I treat every animal as my own. I pride myself in clear communication and reliability. I’m comfortable giving oral medications. And of course always ready to snap lots of photos so you’re fully in the loop! I work full time as an Animal Care Technician in Spring House. I am usually finished by 3pm on weekdays. I am available on weekends fully. I can walk, feed and play with all animals! I love all species. I’m excited for the opportunity to meet new fur babies to take care of.

Amanda is so great with animals. We have an extremely anxious cat that most other sitters never see, but came out for pets with her! Had she not taken pictures of the event, we probably wouldn't have believed it happened. She's responsible and accountable and we will definitely book Amanda again in the future.

JJ is trustworthy, reliable, and took excellent care of my two kitties while I was away for almost two weeks. She dropped in every day to ensure they had their daily wet food, scooped their litter, and kept sufficient dry kibble and water available to them. My home was kept neat and clean, and she brought in my mail each day. Most importantly, she is an animal lover herself so my boys had playtime on the sunny enclosed porch - their favorite space - and affection! My experience with JJ was very positive. She is a genuinely nice person and I will definitely use her services again whenever I travel. Thanks, JJ!

My weird cats and I adore Allie. I volunteered at a couple of shelters / rescues and truly have some quirky cats, but Allie acted like they were as normal as they come. She was not fazed by their individual eating preferences, oral meds, and sometimes cranky attitudes. Allie also sent daily updates with photos and I have not felt this at ease traveling in a very long time. I'm sure Allie is excellent with dogs, but if you are looking for someone who is amazing with cats, this is your sitter!

We selected Julie when our normal Rover sitter was no longer available. I don’t have enough good things to say about her. She went above and beyond in every possible way. I felt like our cats were in great hands and I’ll be looking to her the next time we need our boys cared for.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Cheltenham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Cheltenham is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,505 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cheltenham. 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.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
