About: I love dogs and I can handle any size: big or small or anywhere in between. I went through a dog obedience training with my dog who was a fox terrier. As well as took the Rover training course and I think I did very well on it. I can do long walks and short walks, in the city or in the country, morning or evening on most days. I did have to pick up a full time job, so I'm available weekends, with weekdays on a as needed basis. So I'll need all information before booking. I've always enjoy working with and watching animals. My home is currently not an environment that I'm comfortable bringing your pet into. I have roommates and not a completely fenced yard. I'm more than willing to spend time with and work around your animals comfort. I have found keeping to what they are used to makes for a happier furry family member.

About: I've had pets my whole life so going 50+ years. After having some bad experiences from other dog sitters, my son and I decided we could do it better. We know that our 4 dogs are our life and their well being is our top priority. I am retired so I have plenty of time to dedicate to taking care of your precious family. There should never be any worries when you leave your pet with someone. I worked in a vet hospital when I was younger and assisted in bathing, walking, feeding animals that were well behaved and not so well behaved. Our goal is to make your life easier knowing that your fur babies are well taken care of. We hope you'll try us out. I have a lot of availability to come and care for your pets. I am available for drop in visits as well as overnight care. We are available to come to your home for visits as well as stay at your place and provide home care. We can provide care at our home but the animal must be ok with other dogs & cats.

About: I've cared for four elderly dogs in those years. My mom's dog with kidney failure and special food requirements. Grandmother's dog with paralyzed back legs needing to be washed now and then when she had potty accidents on herself. My neighbors two dogs one old and one round. The older one was a fragile deer head chihuahua having no teeth. I cut wet food up small enough so she could eat and put her carefully into a sweater to take her potty out in the cold weather. The younger was another chihuahua with bladder problems kept peeing every two hours all over. Currently I'm open from whenever and can come stay with pets during daylight hours if need be.im available all days of the week. I'm open to discussing needed times and hours for care. I care for my pets in cages or rv environment. Currently those pets are staying in my mom's place as where I'm living currently doesn't allow pets. I clean up messes when made and make sure to prevent disasters by cleaning up potential hazards.

About: Hello! I grew up with chickens, ducks, and pigeons (along with my siblings!). I currently have 3 cats and they are my favorite part of every day. I absolutely adore cats and firmly believe in full bellies and clean litter boxes! I have raised two kittens, adopted an adult feral cat, have experience with hyperthyroid cats/medicating them 2x daily. I have also had a dog from puppy to adulthood. I love hiking with dogs, enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood, playing fetch, and taking them swimming. And yes, I will absolutely take your dog for a 1-8 mile hike or walk if that's something you're interested in! I promise to take great care of your pets and send daily photos (you can opt out of photos). Thanks! My day-to-day varies. I am generally available in the mornings before 8am and in the evenings after 3-5pm on weekdays. Weekends are available and will absolutely work with advanced notice! I enjoy walking dogs and making sure they get quality exercise and attention. I took my dog on frequent walks, hiking, swimming, and to the park. I am a huge fan of hiking with dogs! I also love cats and frequently do drop-ins. Depending on the cat I sometimes bring a book and cuddle. I will give your cat(s) as much or as little attention as they seek. Just let me know what you're looking for and I'll try my best to help you and your family.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life since I was a baby. I believe pets are a family member they should be loved and respected. I can assure I would take very good care of your furry friend! I like to go beyond expectations to take care of a pet. I’m very active so walks are always fun for me! I’ve volunteer in shelters and I’ve pet sit for family and friends too over the years. Thank you in advance for considering me in this important decision! Let me know if you have any questions for me, I would love to answer. Have a wonderful day! I’m a stay at home mom so I have all the love and time to care for a pet as my own through the day I have a fenced backyard and I like to go on walks and play with them. I am really aware of safety and triggers to keep the pet calm

Savannah was awesome taking care of Jack while we were out of town. She did everything expected and then some and as would be expected from anyone letting someone in Their house when they are gone she respected our boundaries. She went above and beyond and I would recommend her for anyone and she would be my first choice for a rebooking.

About: Have been an animal lover since I was 5 years old and grew up around lots of domesticated and wild animals. I have lots of experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes (yes, even the stubborn ones!) Also, I dabble in photography and WILL take lots of photos of your pet if permitted! I work fully remote, so I’m always home and can be as attentive as your furry friend needs me to be! I’m very active and like to go on walks when I can, but also have no problem lounging. Wallace Park is a short 3 minute walk if your dog likes to socialize and play with others! I am happy to be a home for your companion or come to you. Some dogs and cats get anxious when they leave their homes and I like to make sure that everyone is comfortable. At the same time, I can be flexible! I have 6 very sweet kitties and a gentle one year old, too.

About: I grew up taking care of animals since I was 10. I took care of all 6 of our dogs and trained them. Now I have a dog of my own and her obedience is skyrocketing. I get off work at 1pm on weekdays and have nothing better to do then want to be involved with fur babies. I love animals so much. I can do all the basic necessities of caring and handling a dog. I can crate a dog if needed i also know when a dog needs to be corrected and properly handling stressful situations.

I felt so comfortable having Kris do drop-ins to care for my pets while I was out of the country for a week! The regular updates after each visit were so reassuring, and I trusted that he would let me know about any major issues (luckily, there weren't any!)

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Columbia City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Columbia City on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,138 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Columbia City. 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 Columbia City. On Rover:

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