“Sophia is the absolute BEST. We always come home to a happy cat when Sophia’s been visiting. Plus - she is an incredible cat photographer and takes the cutest pictures on her visits! We feel super fortunate to have found Sophia to take care of our sweet boy 😸”

“Maddie is fantastic! I highly recommend her and would hire her again!! She’s very responsive and she took excellent care of my cats. I love that she was available during the holidays and responded quickly to my messages. Also, she would leave a nice summary about her drop-in visits. That made me feel better knowing my cats were in good hands.”

“Mackenzie did a good job taking care of my cat’s basic needs (food, water, litter, etc). My cat is pretty aloof, a hider, and easily stressed by changes in routine so I appreciate Mackenzie’s patience with that. That said, I did feel that communication could have been better - particularly with a drop in that Mackenzie was over an hour late to. I was not made aware about how late she would be until the well into then scheduled drop in time. Obviously things happen and emergencies pop up, but I would have appreciated more of a heads up so I could potentially make other arrangements. Unfortunately, I do not have a “go with the flow” kind of cat and I do think it contributed to her overall stress in the situation. On the flip side, when my cat decided to hide a little too well during the next drop in, Mackenzie spent well over the allotted time looking for her and trying to make she was safe. She also offered to come back later and look again. I certainly appreciated the extra effort and offer of extra time. Ultimately, my cat was fine, fed, and safe which is the goal.”

“Paige is, hands down, one of the best pet sitters we've ever had. From the very first visit, it was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, not just the checklist of tasks. She sent frequent photo updates throughout each visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away — it felt like we never really left. Beyond the basics, Paige went above and beyond: she cleaned up a mess without being asked and kept the litter box spotless the entire time. Little things like that show real attentiveness and care, not just showing up and clocking out. If you're looking for someone thoughtful, reliable, and truly attentive to your pet's needs, look no further. I cannot say enough good things about Paige — I will be absolutely be booking her again.”

“Sarah was fantastic! Very communicative about when she would stop by to check on Gibson and what they did together while she was here. She went above and beyond noticing that some fireworks were being shot off a bit close to the apartment and asked if she could turn on some background noise to drown out the noise for Gibson. Definitely recommend! Will absolutely be booking with Sarah in the future.”

“Sheldyn was an amazing dog sitter, and we would highly recommend her! Before watching our dogs, she took the time to meet with them and really understand their personalities, routines, and the care they needed. She was incredibly flexible with their schedules and treated both of our dogs with so much care and attention. We loved receiving regular updates about how they were doing, and she was always quick to let us know if she noticed anything that might be a concern. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about our dogs, which made us feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. Best of all, our dogs were always excited to see her and ready to play whenever she arrived! Sheldyn is kind, dependable, animal-friendly, and someone we would absolutely trust with our dogs again. 🐾❤️”

I’ve never used Rover before so I was a bit nervous, but Katie was absolutely phenomenal. She provided great care to my two cats, who can be a bit skittish, but took to her right away and even cuddled with her. Katie provided timely updates with lots of photos. She even left my cats a goodie bag with their names on it!! I will definitely be scheduling Katie again. Highly recommend her services!

The sitter we had used for our previous out-of-town dates was not available to do the daily visits for our 2 kitties. I was a little nervous about using a new person. However, after meeting Alyssa, we immediately felt at ease. She was extremely dependable and communicative during our time away (1-1/2 weeks).

Sarah took care of my two cats and two dogs, and I can confidently say she is by far one of the most responsible and reliable pet sitters I’ve had on this platform! From the very beginning, communication was great. We had a meet & greet beforehand, and her willingness to help and make sure she understood my pets’ needs was obvious from the start. Throughout my trip, she made sure all four of my pets were well taken care of. Every pet owner knows you can tell even from pictures whether your pets are happy and comfortable, and mine were clearly having the best time with Sarah! Beyond taking care of their basic needs, she made sure they were getting plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. This was my first time using Sarah’s services, and it definitely won’t be the last. I came home to happy, relaxed pets, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly, highly recommended!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Clayton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Clayton on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,326 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Clayton. 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 Clayton. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
