Hayley was wonderful with our cats and we loved seeing photo updates too! She kept the house clean while we were away by vacuuming too and was quick to respond to requests and questions. Would highly recommend her!

Mariah is truly incredible! My dogs absolutely adore her and get so excited for her visits. We use her every week, and she’s been so flexible and accommodating—even with last-minute schedule changes. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re in such loving and reliable hands. I’m beyond grateful for Mariah and couldn’t imagine a better pet sitter to trust with my pups!

Wendy was amazing with our 3 kiddos! She was able to step in for a last minute booking and “saved the day!” She sent pics of our kiddos and kept us updated on who ate all of their food, who went out to potty and who was being a bit finicky each night We would recommend her to anyone who uses the app!!! 10/10

Jenn is an excellent pet sitter! She checked in on my cats twice a day while I was out of town, and she took care of every little detail including meals and litter boxes. At the last minute, one of my cats needed to be given medication twice a day so Jenn took care of that too. Throughout the entire process, she was easy to communicate with and incredibly detail-oriented. I really appreciate how easy it was to book her services, and I plan to book her again in the future. I would recommend Jenn to anyone who needs help with their pets.

Brianna was amazing.. and always kept me informed. She dropped in on my 3 rambunctious cats and did extra duties like getting my mail and cleaning up where she didn't have to.. will definitely use her again if the need arises!

Jennifer is a great pet sitter. I had her sit my 2 cats and 2 chickens. The cats were in the process of being toilet trained. Jennifer went beyond expectations and encouraged them like I do. They were so comfortable with her even my one picky cat that hides from strangers. I couldn't have lucked out any better than finding her to take care of my babies!

About: I have two dogs of my own and I promise to treat them like one of my own! For dogs, I can walk them, feed them, bathe them, and play with them! I’m a junior at Tennessee Tech University studying at the nursing school there! Even though my major relates to humans, I’ve always been dedicated to taking care of animals if they needed it. I have a dog of my own that I’ve done plenty of research for in order to take proper care of him! I’ve also had two more dogs and seven cats of my own back in my hometown! Safety is my biggest priority. In my client’s home, I will utilize every safety resource that is offered: fences, leashes, crates, and more. I will always make sure your fur baby is taken care of!

Ensley was very easy to work with, and our dog Chonk seemed to like her as soon as she came in! She sent several pictures during both drop-in visits, listened to our instructions and seemed to remember everything just fine, and even stayed for longer than she had to which we really appreciated! Overall, we have no complains and would recommend her

About: Having grown up in a family that adores cats and dogs, I’ve been surrounded by furry friends my whole life. From nurturing playful kittens and energetic puppies to providing tender care for senior dogs, I’ve experienced it all. My love for animals is matched by my commitment to their well-being, ensuring they receive the attention, care, and love they deserve. Whether you need someone to watch over your pet for a day or an extended period, I’m here to provide peace of mind, knowing your beloved companion is in good hands! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. We have one dog that is very friendly with other animals, any additions are welcome throughout the weekdays and weekends. I don't have a yard yet sadly, but I live right across from Tech and that's usually where I walk my own dog a couple times a day. I live in a townhome and your furbaby will be able to free-roam unless you prefer them kenneled.

Emma did awesome with strawberry and kept me up to date with everything and was responsive on any questions and concerns I had. She did things like opening my balcony for my cat strawberry to get some outdoor time and relax for the little time she was with her and I believe it helped considerably. I never used this app or service before but I know anytime I have future trips I will be booking with Emma, she was great and gave me ease of mind while focusing on visiting family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Cookeville on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 77 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cookeville. 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 Cookeville. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
