“Lucy did a phenomenal job taking care of our nervous cat. Her updates were so fun to read and thorough, and she has a way with animals because our cat actually warmed up to her really well which is unusual! Highly recommend Lucy!”
About: I have worked for the WAG! app for over a year now. I've always enjoyed caring for friends and neighbors pets when they were away from home. I've also always had at least 2 pets of my own. I'm currently taking the year off to go back to school. Since all of my courses are online, I am able to remain home each day to care for the animals in my care. I have a large yard that is partially fenced in with a very long run setup across the yard. I also live extremely close to walking trails and have private beach access.
“Brittany is an amazing pet sitter -- professional and reliable, and more importantly, my cats loved her! Even my shy cat was comfortable and enjoyed her visits. Would definitely rebook her!”
“Sally was absolutely lovely and left me a great update for when I got home. I would absolutely recommend her and have her come again without hesitation :) Thanks Sally!!”
“Linh was absolutely amazing. She kept us updated the entire time we were away and provided thoughtful, consistent communication. When our flights were delayed due to THE blizzard, she showed up without hesitation to make sure Sienna was taken care of. I would honestly recommend her to anyone using Rover who wants great service, excellent communication, and someone who will truly care for your fur babies like they’re her own.”
“Wendy is kind and trustworthy. She took the time to get to know my dog and made sure she was comfortable at the first visit. My dog is a unique breed so I really appreciated the patience. She was very professional!”
“Danya was very responsive and great at communicating. She left us great summaries after every visit and sent pictures of our 3 cats. Also really appreciated her willingness to come for a free meet and greet before our trip. Will definitely be booking with Danya again!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. As a cat owner of two, I’m very familiar with daily feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing changes in behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. In addition to caring for my own cats, I’ve also looked after two medium-to-large dogs for friends. This included feeding, walks, playtime, providing companionship, and making sure they stayed on their regular routines while their owners were away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I always strive to provide patient, attentive, and loving care so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a part of my everyday life as I care for my two cats. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making sure they get the attention and care they need. For drop-in visits, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, clean up after them as needed (including litter box cleaning for cats), provide playtime, affection, and companionship, and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications (if needed), or your pet’s preferences.
“Ari was fantastic with my kitties! My cats both need oral medication every morning so I was a bit worried to leave them, but Ari took great care of them. I recieved thorough notes for each visit and multiple photos every morning. I was very reassured they were in good hands. I will be rebooking in the future!”
About: I am a long-time pet parent with 2 cats and a dog. I am new to offering pet-care services, but have used Rover for care of my own pets and had some very good experiences. I hope to offer the same peace of mind to other families. I am currently seeking recreational employment (like pet sitting) but am otherwise unencumbered by work outside the home, so I have plenty of time to devote to care-giving work. Both my husband and I, along with our dog and 2 cats are at home all day most days. We take lots of walks and have a fenced-in yard for dogs to play and lounge in. Our cats are strictly indoor cats and spend their days moving from napping spot to napping spot and enjoy watching the birds at the feeder. The care I would offer your pet will depend on what they like. Walks, playtime, and cuddles are all on offer, as is, of course, any necessary feeding, watering, and cleanup.
“Booked Aga for a second time to check on my cats while I was out of town. She fed them as asked and was on-time. I really appreciate how reliable she is and I will continue to book her as long as she is available. Thanks Aga!”
“Sarah took care of our cat and fish for 7 days. She regularly sent pictures and summaries for us to review and my 10 yo and 6 yo anxiously awaited every day:) she does a great job and we highly recommend!”
“We are fortunate to find Heidi who did a wonderful job with taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She was very attentive, and clearly cared about their well-being. When we returned, our cats looked healthy, happy, and relaxed—which says everything. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would happily recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
About: I have 15+ years of hands-on pet care experience, including 10 years working in a professional grooming shop as a bather. That experience made me very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities and energy levels. I have also owned and cared for large-breed dogs throughout my life, including Dobermans, Rottweilers and pit bulls, so I am genuinely comfortable with big dogs. I understand that a 90-pound dog who is excited to see you is a very different experience from walking a 15-pound dog! I have experience administering subcutaneous medications to my own pets and am comfortable giving oral medications as directed. I am also happy to follow specific feeding, walking and care routines. Most importantly, I treat each pet as an individual. I want to know their routine, quirks, favorite things and what makes them comfortable so I can care for them the way you would. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate weekday walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, including the popular midday hours. I’m also available for morning and evening visits and can often accommodate weekends with advance notice. I’m happy to work with recurring weekly schedules as well as occasional care when you’re traveling or have a long day away from home. I care for pets in their own home with the same attention and respect I would expect for my own. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding, walking and medication instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets are safely settled before I leave. I respect your home and privacy, clean up after pets, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while in my care.
“Daniel was an excellent drop-in visitor and playmate for our cat Georgie. We really appreciated his friendliness, prompt communication, and genuine affection for our cat. Bonus points for his availability short notice during holiday season as well! We’d definitely recommend Daniel.”
“We have a cat and a house bunny and Nick did a wonderful job taking care of them, who both seemed to love him from his first visit. He was responsible, communicative, and engaging with both pets. I would definitely have him look after our fur babies again any time!”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Cochituate is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cochituate
We were incredibly grateful to be able to book Tom--someone who clearly cares a lot about kitties--for a long weekend series of twice-daily visits with our elderly cat. Tom was very thorough in sending detailed updates on the visit and great photos from his time caring for Harlan. Thank you, Tom!
Isabella took wonderful care of Roo and Moe while I was away for two weeks. She was reliable, caring, and attentive, and kept me updated throughout my trip. I came home to two healthy and happy cats, and I could tell they were very well cared for. I would definitely trust Isabella to take care of them again. Highly recommended!
Livia did a great job visiting our cuddly cat while we were away for a few days! She did a wonderful job getting him out of his shell and giving him attention at each visit. Livia was on time, ensured a clean environment, and was really respectful of our property. I will definitely be booking again! :)
Charlene took care of our shy cat during our recent 12-day trip, and she was phenomenal. Our guy can take a while to warm up to new people, but Charlene was patient and consistent with him, and it really paid off - he’s now comfortable and even chatty with her. Beyond the basics like keeping his litter box clean, she paid close attention to his hydration and emphasized for us the importance of making sure he is getting enough water, which we really appreciate. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, not just the routine tasks. We came home to a relaxed, happy cat and total peace of mind. Charlene is our go-to sitter, and we can’t recommend her enough!
Sally was wonderful. She kept the litter box clean and played with our friendly cat. She also was wonderful with our hostile cat, understanding of his anxiety and not afraid to tend to the house completely. She brought in our mail and made a key drop off and pick up plan on her own. We were so happy with her!
Sarah was extremely reliable and consistent, showing up daily as requested and letting us know what was happening with our animals while we were away. She went above and beyond her responsibilities and replaced batteries in the automated feeder for our rabbit. I would not hesitate to book Sarah again the next time we need a pet sitter!
Ashley did drop in visits for our cat while we were away. She did a great job following all of my instructions, sending photos, and was excellent about communicating. She also took care of a few extra requests that weren't in the initial instructions perfectly. She handled everything very professionally, definitely appreciated!
Morgan took great care of my cat Nami for 6 days, twice a day while I was on vacation. Not only did she complete basic routines such as feeding, cleaning litter box and sending updates per visit, but most importantly, she is really trying to playing with and accompanying my cat during all the visits. I can tell my cat likes her. I will definitely rebook with Morgan.
We are fortunate to find Heidi who did a wonderful job with taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She was very attentive, and clearly cared about their well-being. When we returned, our cats looked healthy, happy, and relaxed—which says everything. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would happily recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Cochituate on Rover is $22.2 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 5,380 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cochituate. 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 Cochituate. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
