“AMAZING!! It was my first time using Rover due to an emergency housing situation, I was so lucky to have found him! Super quick and responsive and took care of my sweet boy so well with so many updates! He was so kind and attentive to my cat, truly an amazing person! He followed everything to a T, would definitely hire again ❤️❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little kid. Animal care, or animals in general have always been a major passion of mine. Neighbors and family friends have consistently relied on me for pet care whenever they’re heading out of town or are just gone for the day! I do have experience with a variety of different breeds (both cat and dog!) as well as many other reptiles, fish and birds. I will always meet any and all needs that may be required for your furry or scaly friends! It is my top priority to make sure your pets are safe, happy and well taken care of whenever needed 🙂! I am currently working part time while I am in school so my availability is pretty flexible 🤸! I am not available for boarding at the moment, however, I am open consistently throughout the week 😆! While in your home, I will make sure to adhere to and respect all rules and expectations given to me regarding your pets specific care as well as general house rules! Tell me to fly and I will 🚀, especially since you are trusting and welcoming me into your space to care for your babies! 🐾
About: Hello! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. From playing fetch with energetic pups to snuggling with couch potatoes, I treat every dog like family. I'm a proud pet parent to two pups, Fizz and Aurora, and I have 15+ years of hands on pet care experience. I always send plenty of photos and updates so you know your baby is in great hands. I can't wait to meet your furry friends! I currently have so much free time that I am willing to give your pets the love and attention that they deserve. I can do anytime between 9am-2:00pm and 6:00pm-8:00pm at the moment! But I am open to other schedules! Your pet’s safety and well being are my absolute highest priorities! With over 15 years of hands on experience caring for animals, I have a deep understanding of pet behavior and know how to maintain a secure, hazard-free environment. I treat every animal with the same love and care that I give my own pets,
“It was our first time trying out Rover for care for our senior cat, second cat, and 2 Guinea pigs and we’re very happy we went with Pamela! Pamela was very reliable and a natural with our pets. She was professional and communicative and we had full confidence our pets would do well in her hands. We will be coming back for Pamela for future pet sitting needs for sure and recommend her to anyone else looking for quality care for their pets.”
About: Pups or senior doggies, I LOVE them all!! I've been taking care of dogs since I was very young. I've cared for small, medium and large dogs. I've kept track of food and walking routines for multiple dogs at once. I love playing and giving them lots and lots of love!! I'm very responsible and when in charge of a pet they are my number one concern. I treat all pets like my own. Their paws are in good hands here :) My schedule is very open and centered around pet care, so I’m able to provide reliable, timely visits and give each pet plenty of attention. I’m available for multiple check-ins throughout the day and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine.

I even started a YouTube channel when I was 13 years old and accumulated 41k followers and over 26 million views, just by sharing my love and compassion for animals! I currently have 3 dogs, 3 cats, a snake, and a bird and would love to help you and your fur babies in your time/s of need. I cannot do overnight housesitting at this time, but I can spend the days at your home if you need :) I currently stay home during the day with my sweet, gentle, animal-loving 1-year-old girl, and only work 3 days a week for a few hours. When I’m not home, my boyfriend is so we have all the time in the world to give your fur babies the time and attention they need and deserve! I am an above-and-beyond type of sitter, not just an ‘only what is in the job description’. I want to give the type of care that I would want my own fur babies to receive!

“Emily is so sweet and was great with our kitty. She is very communicative and we got lots of pictures of playtime! Thankfully, she noticed that our automatic feeder was malfunctioning and let us know right away. She left our house cleaner than it was when we left and we would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,205 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Christmas. 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 Christmas. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
