About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs through various experiences. I am responsible and dependable. I have owned dogs my entire life and currently have a 3 year old energetic boxer mix. I trained my own pup from 7 weeks old and attended a 12 week training course with her. Positive tones and patience are key. I love being active and getting outside and can guarantee your dog a happy and active experience! I am a full time teacher! I have summers and other school breaks off. I will be available for dog walking in the afternoons starting May 29th. During the month of June I work summer school but am available for dog walking any time after 1:00 pm. I am looking to help during vacation times and long weekends. For house sitting, I am willing to stay from 7am to 11pm but will not be available for overnights for initial clients. I am available for meet and greets beforehand! I am reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. I will treat your home and animals as I would my own. I have reliable transportation and can be there for your pet several times a day. I love being outdoors and active and would love to walk or run your dog as you see fit. I will send updates including photos and videos to let you know how your pet is doing.

About: My husband and I have a lot of experience caring for cats, dogs, and birds. I've been house sitting /animal sitting for around 7 years on the side. I absolutely love animals, and I've had experience caring for a large variety of them. I've watched 4 large dogs at a time, all of whom needed special medication and attention. I care for every animal like they're my own, and just absolutely love being around dogs. I have a spacious home and I am very attentive. I live in a safe neighborhood, and I am by my phone 24/7 so can be in contact with you at any time. I work remotely and sometimes have to go in to the office. My husband is almost always home, and we always make sure someone is at home to be with the animals. Care is always personalized to the dogs needs. We go for regular walks, follow any dietary restrictions, and always check with the pet-parent if there's anything else needed.

About: Animals have always been my happy place. I have two dogs and a cat of my own, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life. I’ve also helped family and friends by letting their dogs out, taking them on walks, and caring for them while they were away, including keeping a friend’s dog in my home for a week during vacations. While I’m new to Rover, I’m dependable, patient, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands, and I’ll do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I currently work part-time Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Outside of those hours, I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting. I’m also available most Thursdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any routines your pet is used to. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

Our German shepherd is a little shy and also a ball of energy once warmed up and he loves her and we are so thankful for that because he can have a hard to warming up to people. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!

Christina is great! She took perfect care of my dogs. She showed up right when she said she would be there. & even a little early just in case. She stayed a little later if I needed her to. She went above and beyond to make sure my pups were being cared for. She’s a great person to have watching your fur babies!

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I always find a way to work around my schedule no matter the situation. I like to make animals a priority at all times if possible. I like to spend time with the pets if their parents are gone for a long period of time. I think it helps with their anxiety and sadness of them being gone.

Lauren came to the rescue during a really chaotic time in my life. I was dealing with a lot of major change and needed to find a sitter ASAP. My dogs can be a handful and I was really worried about a stranger coming in but she blew my expectations out of the water and I'm so grateful for that. They warmed up to her right away, and I knew right from the meet and greet that it was all going to work out. Her schedule was flexible and fit my needs perfectly. She always left me detailed visit notes and updates too which was awesome. I would not hesitate to highly recommend her services to anyone needing a trusted sitter! 😊❤️

About: I have been taking care of the pets of friends and family for years, ranging from dog-walking to week-long pet sitting. Experience with a wide range of breeds and ages. I am a substitute teacher with a very flexible schedule, so I can take care of animals pretty much any time during days when I am not subbing. For sitting at other’s’ home, I try and keep the pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible! I prefer sitting in other’s’ homes just to keep things simple for the furry babies.

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience, a deep love for animals, and a calm, reliable approach to care. I’m 31 years old and have spent my entire life around dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Whether it’s caring for energetic puppies, giving gentle attention to senior pets, or just understanding each pet’s unique needs, I treat every animal like my own—with patience, affection, and respect. I’m confident in administering basic medications, recognizing pet body language, and keeping animals safe, comfortable, and happy in any environment. I work full-time from 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, but I’m available for pet sitting on weekends and for walks or drop-in visits after 5pm on weekdays. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to give them the attention, activity, and affection they need when I’m with them. I have a fenced in yard with enough space to run and play, I also have a chocolate lab who is laid back and loves other dogs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Claypool on Rover is $17.21 per visit (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 11 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Claypool. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
