About: Hi! I have enjoyed the company of pets since I was a young girl. As an adult, I have had both adopted dogs and cats in my home for more than two decades. I have trained puppies and cared for older dogs/cats in pain towards the end of life. My beloved Sandy girl passed 4 years ago at 13 1/2 years old, but I have kept her profile on this app. Due to traveling/work I have not had an animal for the past four years. I have really missed the unconditionally loving company! I work part-time, so I am relatively flexible to walk and care for your sweet dog or cat. I’m looking for a friendly, calm, well trained pup, as well as sweet, kindly natured cats. So I’m offering to walk your dog, and care for your cat, since I am really missing a pet in my life. I try to get my pet-fix in by visiting the pet stores on adoption days, and say hi to dogs I meet on my walks in the neighborhood, but it doesn’t quite make up for it. Having used this Rover app for dog sitting of my own dog some years ago, I found this would be a good way to connect with you and your lovely pet. My specialty is walking your dog with 100% attention, without texting or being on my phone simultaneously. I’ve always found this to be so important, to actually spend quality time together during the walks. I love cats as well, and I would be very happy to come and care for your kitty/kitties. Furthermore, I might be able to pet sit at your home when you are gone.
About: Hello! my name is Zoie. I have 1 year of work experience and have done volunteer work for local shelters and have fostered since high school. I can help with pet transportation / sitting and pet walking. I am a pet owner myself, owning both cats and dogs and been around pets my whole life. I started working with animals when I was in high school with my mother fostering kittens then eventually started volunteering with different local shelters. I am currently between jobs, so I will be able to devote my whole time and attention to the care of your pets and their needs. Unfortunately boarding and related services will not work as I am currently living in a mobile home. You can trust I'll treat and respect your pets like they were my own.
“Thalia is a wonderful cat sitter! She played with Tig with all his toys on each visit, and sent great pictures each time. Tig was very happy with her, and let me know I should reach out to Thalia again the next time I need a pet sitter!”
“Samantha is a very good communicator and we got along great. She understood all of the directions we left for her and asked questions when needed. She is always on time and I had full confidence that our cats were well taken care of while we were gone.”
“Kalynn is amazing, she is caring and soo knowledgeable. My fur babies are really comfortable with her, anytime we need a doggy sitter she is the one I trust to take care of my fur babies. I 100% recommend her services.”
About: I love my experiences with my canine friends, and felines too. I have been the primary care person for numerous furry friends though my life although not currently. I have enjoyed numerous pet sitting jobs, including for elderly and crippled dogs, here in the Verde Valley and have a pet-friendly vehicle for potential nature hikes. Since I am retired, it's easy to program my personal interests (writing, web programming, music editing, reading) amongst the needs of my clients, human and non. I bring them outside if appropriate, feed them as wanted, medicines as required, walking, talking, petting, playing, and give them personal space as they may prefer.

About: I have most of my experience caring for dogs, but I also have experience watching cats as well. Along with caring for my own dog, I currently help look after three other family dogs that I live with. My responsibilities include feeding, daily walks and hikes, vet visits, administering post-surgery care, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Most of my pet sitting experience has been through friends and family. I’ve stayed overnight at clients’ homes to care for two adult dogs at a time, especially when owners wanted someone present with the dogs as much as possible. I did this over a couple of summers for stays lasting around 1–2 weeks at a time. I also regularly help care for a family member’s mini poodle while they travel, either by bringing her to my home or stopping by for potty breaks, feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m very passionate about caring for animals and always try to treat every pet the same way I would treat my own. My goal is to make pets feel loved, well cared for, comfortable, and active while their owners are away. I currently work for a high school, which gives me much more flexibility during the summer months. I will also be working another part-time job that has a flexible schedule, so I am available most days of the week for pet care. Because of my flexible availability, I’m able to spend quality time with pets throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I always try to make sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and attended to while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my own home, safety and comfort are very important to me. While I’m at work, my dogs stay in a secure fenced backyard with multiple shaded areas, a small kiddie pool with water for drinking or cooling off, and toys to keep them entertained. They are usually outside during the day when no one is home, but once I or another family member returns, they are allowed back inside. On weekends, when I’m home more often, they are free to go in and out of the house as they please. They sleep indoors on their own beds at night, although I don’t mind pets sleeping near me if that is what they are comfortable with. When caring for other people’s pets, I always make sure to follow the owner’s instructions and routines as closely as possible. If pets are normally kept indoors during the day, I would stop by for potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. If a dog does not have a fenced yard or cannot safely be off leash, I would make sure they stay leashed and supervised at all times. I’m also happy to take pets on walks or transport them elsewhere if needed for exercise or bathroom breaks. If an owner is comfortable with their dog staying at my home, I can provide a safe, secure, and caring environment for them there as well.
About: Hi there! My names Alexa. I’ve been taking care of animals from the ripe age of 15 years old. I started out working in boarding facilities, studied pre-vet in college, and have 6+ years Vet Tech experience! Taking care of animals is my passion.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cottonwood
Gail was fantastic! She was incredibly patient with my cat, Serge, who apparently decided to play "mystery cat" and wasn't exactly eager to come out and make new friends while I was away. 😹 Even with his less-than-cooperative attitude, Gail kept me updated with detailed notes about his food, litter box, and the occasional rare Serge sighting. She also went above and beyond by keeping an eye on the plants we asked her to water. Giving us updates on them too. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing everything at home was being cared for with such thoughtfulness and great communication. I would happily book Gail again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet (and plant) sitter! ~Sondra

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Cottonwood on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 144 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cottonwood. 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.
