It was very good to know that Montana was checking in on Jett while we were away! She was even able to get a couple of photos, he’s very shy and elusive. Many thanks for a great job. I’m getting ready to rebook for another trip.

Debbie was so good with my cat, Toshi. She was always on time, communicating during each visit with updating me with photos. She cared for him exactly as was needed. I would definitely recommend her for your own pet care needs.

Kim was amazing. We lost track of time as first time parents and were lucky enough to book her just a few days before the holidays, for a lengthy stretch. She went above and beyond caring for our 2 cats. Always daily pictures with a note. She noticed when our anxious cat started stress licking and was able to use our diffuser to help provide some calming smells for them. She even set our trash out on the last day which was not expected. Could not recommend her more!

About: For the last 20 years, I have been the loving fur/scale mom to dogs, cats, snakes, and geckos! If you have chickens that need to be tended to, I don't mind filling up a feeder or collecting a few eggs for you! I just moved to the Ocala area and would love to take care of pets part-time or full-time. I am available daily and will advise on any days I am no going to be available. My cats currently have a 3 bedroom home, with one room dedicated to being a cat space for them. We are planning to add cat shelves for them to explore on later.

Jonathan was willing to help me out super last minute to give my Gargy a good long walk when I got called into work. He let me know when he was on the way, walking him, and heading out and left a few pictures as well! I will definitely be keeping him in mind in the future :)

Bethany was a huge blessing to my family and our Beau. She was timely, and took her time with Beau. She was very communicative; she sent texts, photos, and videos. She made me feel super confident about leaving Beau at home and knowing that he'd be taken care of. I will ABSOLUTELY use her again in the future and you should, too.

About: Hi! I’m Christy, and I absolutely love caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers naps and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away for peace of mind. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. My goal is to make your pet’s time with me as fun, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’d love to help care for your pup! I only have school Monday 11-3 and Wednesday 11-3 I’m free whenever you need me. Give me a quick call and I’ll be on my way! I have harness and leashes for small and medium dogs. I have a medium size kennel. If you need me to bring any of the dogs items, I have a big car to pick them up. I also have a nice neighbor hood that I can walk the dog. I can only care for 1-3 dogs at a time though.

Chantel was excellent, would definitely use again. We were just in the area for Thanksgiving week and needed someone to come by our rental house to walk our dogs while we did some sightseeing. My standard poodles loved her.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years. I speak fluent Spanish! I’ve raised my dog Zoso since I was 14 when she was a puppy, she recently passed away at 17 years old so having other dogs around makes me so happy. I also have two cats who are young, orange, and friendly, and I own horses, so I’m experienced with pets of all sizes and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am an expert on giving medication too from having a senior dog for many years! What sets me apart is my reliability, genuine love for animals, and the peace of mind I give owners knowing their pets are safe, comfy and happy. I spend most of the time at home working remotely so they will get all my attention! I currently work part-time from home, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets during the week and weekends. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and boarding. I love spending time playing with animals, giving them attention, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where pets are treated like my own. I have a private yard linked to trails that I walk daily, and I’d love to bring your dog along for exercise and fresh air. Most importantly, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to make sure every pet feels secure, comfortable with routine, and well cared for!

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own because I know how much they mean to you. I don’t just “watch” animals I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and little quirks so they feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ve worked with both puppies and senior pets, so I understand how different their needs can be. Whether it’s helping reinforce potty training and leash habits for younger dogs, or giving extra patience, gentle care, and medication support for older pets, I adjust to what your pet needs. You’ll never be left wondering how things are going. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. At the end of the day, my goal is simple: Give your pet a stress free, loving experience and give you total peace of mind. Throughout the week, I stay flexible so I can accommodate different routines, whether it’s early morning visits, evening checkins, or multiple visits per day. I also build in time for updates, so pet owners always know how their pet is doing. Since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, it’s not just a task, it’s something I look forward to, making it easy to give each pet the care and attention they deserve. I provide care based on what makes each pet most comfortable, whether that’s in my home or yours. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and quiet companionship, so they feel safe in their own space. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and consistent.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Citra on Rover is $27.75 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 530 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Citra. 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 Citra. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
