“I've had the pleasure of Jayde taking great care of my furbabies! Her communication and reliability have made calling her again, a very easy decision to make!! Thank you so much again!!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner since birth. I have been watching pets and taking care of them for over 10 years. I love animals with all my heart. I currently work as a paraprofessional in an Extended School Year program during all July during the week Monday to Thursday for 4 hours. I have open availability after 1 pm and on the weekends. I will meet your pet at the their needs. I’m great at following any routine or instructions you leave for me since I love rules. If I have any question or concern, I will ask at once. I’m a problem solver so I can figure out most things before I need to interrupt a date night, vacation or work.

“This was my first time using Rover. Jenny made m comfortable with the process. We met ahead of the service. She was great with Gatsby and provided many pictures that made me more relaxed that she was taking care of him. I would definitely recommend Jenny!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I have experience with dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, litter box care, potty breaks, and spending quality time with pets. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets as well as pets who are shy, anxious, older, or simply need some extra patience. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and provide photos and updates throughout the visit so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m dependable, communicative, and happy to arrange a meet & greet before a first booking. Pet care fits well into my routine, and I make sure I only accept bookings that I can give the proper time and attention to. My availability can vary throughout the week, so I communicate with pet parents ahead of time to make sure our schedules work together. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding, with more flexibility on certain days and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I understand that being away from their owner or in a new environment can be stressful for some animals, so I’m patient and allow them time to get comfortable with me. I keep pets supervised, provide a clean and comfortable environment, and will always communicate with you if I notice anything unusual. I’m also happy to do a meet & greet beforehand so both you and your pet feel comfortable!

“Greg was really great with our three cats! He took care to make sure everyone was ok during his daily drop ins, and was very thorough with all of the feeding and care tasks we had for him to do.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cologne
Jazmin did a great job! She seemed to genuinely care for our cat, Cleo, even though it was her first time watching her. She did Cleo’s routine, played with her, and gave her attention. Cleo can be a picky and talkative senior cat, and Jazmin was dedicated to providing good care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Cologne is $30 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $40 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 136 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cologne. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cologne. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
