“Kandice did an amazing job checking in on our cat, ensuring that he had food and water and giving him company while we are gone. She made sure to do all the things we asked during the visit and we’d gladly reach out to her for her again in the future!”
“Gabriel was attentive, caring and wonderful with our pets. He was reliable and we will definitely be using him again. We loved seeing the updates. The pets loved him too! Thanks for all your help!”
“Janice is amazing with our special needs chocolate lab. Lulu looks forward to her visits each week and we appreciate Janice’s flexibility and willingness to care for Lulu.”
“Callie was great with communication and solved a problem with a food mixup to make sure our dogs were taken care of. She is definitely someone I recommend for drop in support. Thanks Callie!”
About: As I've grown up I have taken care of my three family's pets (two dogs and one cat). Additionally, I've also occasionally assisted my neighbors in taking care of the pets as well. I am very comfortable in working with new pets and will work my best to provide them with the care that each one of them needs. I am a full-time student at Miami University. I am in class generally between 9am to 3pm on weekdays, I will work with you to find the best care that will fit your pet's needs as well as my schedule. I am willing to stay overnight at client's houses so that your pets feel more comfortable. Otherwise, I am willing to check in on your pets throughout the day so that they are not left alone for long periods of time. I will work with you to determine what is best for your needs and your pets.
“We love working with her! We are in the process of moving states so throughout the process we have had to travel back and forth at the last minute multiple times. Her willingness and commitment to our babies has been unmatched. ✨”
“Corinna was fantastic! She was so attentive to the dogs and just sat and played with them the entire time she was there. She communicated well and took pictures so I could see what they were up too. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: Ive had all kinds of pets my entire life-everything from dogs and cats to hamsters and guinea pigs to lizards and snakes. I love all animals! While I dont have a lot of experience pet sitting, I'm always ready for a challenge. My second ever pet sitting client had 6 dogs! I understand the important of routine for our furry babies and I do my best to follow their regular routine, including meds or other special instructions necessary for their comfort! I am also willing to help with other pets if needed- including rodents, reptiles, and amphibians! I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently work full time but am able to do drop ins before and after work! My schedule is flexible when I need it to be so mid-day drop ins may be an option if you are near my place of employment. I take special care to follow instructions on how to keep your pets comfy, safe, and secure! I also prefer to meet the pets and owners before I sit so that the pet has an opportunity to meet me with their comfort person around!
“Jenna did a wonderful job caring for our 5 animals! Jenna came twice to meet each animal and go through the process of caring before final booking. She provided updates and photos throughout the sitting sessions and we came back to happy tails! Thank you Jenna 😊”
“Alexa was truly a cat whisperer with my two cats. She approached them on their terms (because cats don’t always warm up immediately!!) and I was rewarded with many pictures and videos of both my cats enjoying her company. She made sure to play and snuggle the cats, giving them fulfilling visits alongside the basic food/litter necessities. I also appreciated that she paid careful attention to the litter habits. I have two boys, and those are known to get urinary problems as they are older. She did a wonderful job communicating her visits and sent plenty of pictures and videos so I could get my cat fix from afar! Alexa also proved flexible when my flight was almost cancelled, confirming that she would be available to continue checking in on them. I’ll definitely book with her again!!”
“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with high-energy dogs, senior dogs, shy dogs, and puppies, and I always adjust the walk or visit to what your dog needs most. Safety is extremely important to me, so I pay close attention to leash handling, surroundings, and your dog’s comfort at all times. I work from home and can be available at anytime to take care of your furry animal. I can also be available during the evenings to make your life easier after a busy day stuck in traffic! I have a large backyard that your furry animal can run around in to keep them safe. Sounds like one happy and exhausted pup to me!
“Bethany was great! She helped me on short notice when my something came up with my usual sitter. She was very friendly and thorough with the care instructions for my babies and even left a gift for Dipper! Would highly recommend her as I can tell she truly loves animals and will take great care yours as she did mine.”
“I just met Scott for the first time today. There was a possibility I would have to go out of town to the hospital in the next day or two. I have one cat sitter but I need additional one. I immediately felt at ease with him. He carried some heavy cat litter down my steps into my basement and did the litter boxes. He's very kind and although my cats really didn't meet him today I feel very comfortable in leaving him his care.”
“I D K if my other reviews showed up as my phone is not right!! I can’t see them. Courtney V is fantastic, has a sweet personality, is confident and exceeded my expectations!!! I will recommend her to all who need her ❤️💜”
About: I have 3 dogs of my own that I have trained myself. I have looked after friend’s animals numerous times. I have walked, fed, bathed, cut nails, and groomed dogs before. I currently work 8am-5pm, but can be flexible when needed. I'm off every weekend. I can work my schedule around what is needed and am willing. I don't normally have things scheduled after work other than taking my pups for a walk. I have three friendly and energetic pups that can keep yours company! I have a plethora of toys, treats, and my apartment complex has a dog park. I have a balcony that my dogs love to sit out on and play/sun bathe. I will love your pups like they are my own!
About: I have an unconditional love for all animals. Ever since I was a young child, I have always wanted to care for animals. I have a mini American Shepard puppy named Buster, and love spending as much time with him as I can. If okay, Buster will be with me at almost all times. I guarantee to give your dog as much love as if they were my own. Other than being able to spend almost every night (overnight) with your dog, I am available Monday evenings (after 4) and Saturday Mornings (before 2) to be with your pup. I am a full-time college student, with a part-time job looking to earn extra money. Please let me know of any questions, and I hope to see you soon!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,225 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Collinsville. On Rover:
- 96% 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.
