“Keri and her daughter were very friendly and helpful with taking care of our cat for a week. The pictures were great to see and she was responsive in answering questions. We appreciated them and their service!”
“If you're seeking a respectful, trustworthy, responsive, caring, and compassionate pet sitter, look no further! Tiffany did an excellent job caring for my two labs over the holidays. She's earned my business from here on out! Thank you so much, Tiffany!!”
About: If loving a dog was a love language I’d be just that! I am very reliable, and giving. I have a house and a generous yard, and work remote. I have cared for plenty types of dogs growing up, and acquiring to each of their needs. It’s always my goal making them feel good when they are in my care. I work 2 days in the week at my office, and most the time home, otherwise I’m running errands. My schedule is pretty flexible. Communication is always key of course when it comes to timing, and plans. I have a nice long sized yard right next to my apartment building right out my door to take out the doggies for potty breaks, and general play time. If your dog needs to be in crate otherwise then play that’s totally okay as well.
“Lauren is amazing! She’s went above and beyond on her visits with our dog - taking her on walks, spending time with her to play, and taking extra care when she was being a picky eater. She kept us updated with pictures and notes and put our minds at ease. She even watered my flowers. She was a fabulous find, and we will definitely book again with her next time. Highly recommend!”
“We went on a long vacation in Europe and we just needed someone to spend time with our 2 pit bulls for a little bit that way our roommate wasn’t to overwhelmed with watching them and Lauren was so awesome. She had great communication and we always looked forward to their report cards everyday so we didn’t miss them too much. Most importantly though she gave us peace of mind and the ability to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our dogs.”
About: I am a lifelong cat owner, and have pet-sat for both dogs and cats since I was a kid. I’ll keep your babies well taken care of :) I’m a high school teacher, so during the summer I have plenty of time for pet care. During the school year I am available after 3pm. I’ll be sure to follow all directions you leave, keep your fur babies in their designated areas, lock your doors, and anything else you need to make sure your fur babies are safe.
“We are so thankful for Andrea!! She truly loves our fur kiddos and she went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of while we were gone. It truly helped us be able to enjoy vacation knowing they were so well taken care of! She is super responsive and always leaves a note to let us know how they are doing. Our dogs are not the easiest to walk but they got walks everyday! Highly recommend booking Andrea for any pet needs.”
“Jill does such a great job with our zoo! 10 cats, all with different feeders, two that need isolated, and 1 that needs medication. It is such a relief that we can leave for a trip and know that our kitties are well looked after! Highly recommend!!!”
About: Hi! My name is Ashley. I have a ton of experience with animals of all types. I am a stay at home mom, so I have open availability! My daughter has grown up around dogs and cats and even farm animals so she knows boundaries very well and is very respectful of animals. We would love to keep your fur babies! Just send me a message and we will see if I’m the right fit for your furry family member ☺️ We’ve recently moved to Collinsville and we have a huge backyard with a privacy fenced in yard! There’s tons of room for your dog to run around and there’s no fear in them escaping. When dogs are let outside I monitor them the entire time and stay outside with them to make sure they are safe! I care for other pets as if they were my own. I make sure they keep to their daily and night time schedules and I make sure each and every animal is loved on and cared for!
“Quenna is a very responsible pet sitter! She showed up early and was always fast to respond my texts. She was the first person I used on this app after a few people agreed and then cancelled on me. But Quenna didn't disappoint. Plus her main job is at the animal shelter. So she is the best care taker! I highly recommend Quenna as your pet sitter!”
About: EXPERIENCED IN CARE OF DIABETIC ANIMALS! I am a junior in college and have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to spend more time with your loved ones. I have two dogs, a small diabetic Yorkiepoo and a high energy wire haired, pointing Griffin. As a college student I have a lot of flexibility to provide care almost around the clock! Additionally this is my only job, no other competing priorities. I am willing to stay overnight at your house to watch them. I can watch multiple pets at a time. I am able to be with them throughout the day with an exception of when I have to go to class. I am willing to do play dates!
“Olivia is always so great with our Charlie Boy and we know he is in good hands while we are at work. She is so very good with communication and responding and we just appreciate her so much.”
“Sterling was great! He always showed up within the given time window and gave my baby some love. I really appreciated the notes and pictures he’d leave on the Rover Card as well. Seeing that my kitty was being sociable and playing with his toys made me very happy. Also, I noticed in one of the pictures that Sterling took his shoes off in the house. I appreciated that SO MUCH because we are a shoes-off home to keep the floors clean. This booking was made because of a trip that was made on short notice, so Sterling being very easy to get in touch with made everything easy and worry-free. He was very personable and clearly knowledgeable about cats, so I felt safe leaving my furry baby with him. I would definitely recommend booking Sterling and I will be booking him again in the future! Thanks again!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have been taking care of them since I was able to. I also would help my neighbors as a kid when they would go out of town. I have two dogs now and love them to death. I’m can walk, feed, bathe, and play with your pet. I am working when I am a free. So your pets care would be my first priority after getting up in the morning. If need over night that would work perfectly. If you have a fenced In yard. I would still go outside with them and have some play time if they would like. Also if we had to take them on a walk I would follow what the animal would like. I will take care of your pet just like they are my own.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Collinsville
This was our second time with Alex, they did an excellent job with our kitty and my guinea pig! Our kitty is pretty shy but after a few visits she started to warm up to them. Now our kitty can get snuggles when we are gone, especially when she's picky on who she likes.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Collinsville on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 1,188 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Collinsville. 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.

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.
