About: Hi! I’m Esme, a huge animal lover and proud pet parent. I have a Mini American Shepherd named Kita, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. While I adore dogs, I’m also a big cat lover! Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, chasing toys, or simply having someone keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I know every pet has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to get to know them. From energetic pups to shy kitties, my goal is always to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and become their new bestie! 🐾💕 Animals are already a huge part of my life! As a dog mom to my Mini American Shepherd, Kita, pet care is built into my daily routine. My days are filled with walks, playtime, training, and lots of cuddles. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so caring for pets feels less like work and more like something I enjoy. Whether it’s a dog who loves adventure or a cat who just wants a quiet companion, I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to the routines they’re familiar with, so I always try to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, meals, and, of course, lots of love. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs. Some pets love long walks and play sessions, while others prefer cuddles on the couch or a quiet companion nearby. I’m happy to adapt to what makes your pet feel most comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect both your pet’s routine and your home, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
“This is my first time using Rover for a house visit and I would 100% do it again. Annette was responsive, thorough with updates, and just gave me the peace of mind I needed while traveling. When we had something come up that changed some of our travel dates, she was incredibly accommodating. Definitely booking Annette for any future pet needs!”
“Grace took excellent care of my sweet cat. She communicated any potential issues and his mood/playfulness, along with the usual Rover Card updates. She also sent a lot of pictures each day. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a cat sitter.”
“Laurie is great with our pets and she always gives us in-depth reports about them. She’s very responsive and she has also been there for us for last minute bookings.”
“Sydney did a great job at dropping in to care for our two dogs! She was a great communicator and took really cute pictures to update us along the way. I would definitely book again and recommend to anyone considering her as a sitter option!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life — from cats, dogs, and birds to cows and farm animals. Growing up on a farm taught me how to truly understand their behavior and emotions. Animals naturally trust me, and I build a calm, safe connection with every pet I meet. I also have experience caring for senior pets and helping shy animals feel comfortable. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just giving love, your pet will feel at home with me. Pet care easily fits into my weekly routine because I work part-time with a very flexible schedule. I always make time for walks and pet visits, both on weekdays and weekends. Spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy, so I often plan my days around it. Caring for pets isn’t just a task for me — it’s a relaxing and rewarding part of my routine. When I care for pets, I always follow their usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have fresh water, proper meals, playtime, and enough outdoor time if needed. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality — whether they need extra energy, gentle patience, or quiet company. If needed I will keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are happy and cared for.
“AMAZING!! Erica is nothing short of amazing. She was punctual, communicative and just the sweetest woman ever. I cannot recommend her enough! Kept an eye on my kitties while out of town for a few months and made me feel so comfortable and confident that they were okay. 10/10!!!”
About: I've taken care of animals most of my life. I have a very flexible schedule and am willing to work with any animals. I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I have a very open schedule at the moment. I care for my sister's pets while she is at work. So I have a lot of time to spare I pride myself on following directions to a T. Any instructions left for me will be followed and I am not afraid to ask for clarification. My goal is to put your mind at ease knowing your pets are in great hands.

AMAZING!! Erica is nothing short of amazing. She was punctual, communicative and just the sweetest woman ever. I cannot recommend her enough! Kept an eye on my kitties while out of town for a few months and made me feel so comfortable and confident that they were okay. 10/10!!!
She was AMAZING. Even that is an understatement. I booked her last minute due to flights being delayed and she went right in and gave me all the reassurance I needed for my babies. She communicated fantastic and sent tons of videos and pictures. Would absolutely book her again.
Jenn was amazing with all of my pets. Each day, she had to play hide and seek with the cats to give them pills and shots, and managed to do while also making them love her. She was very thoughtful with my dogs, providing lots of cuddles to ease their separation anxiety, and even put a dog-friendly videos on the TV before she left each day (without being asked). I will definitely book with Jenn again and again.
Megan connected so quickly with my cat and he seemed to be so comfortable with her, he even let her give him his supplement. The second time they hung out together.. it gives me such encouragement in leaving him in her care. Megan is very responsive and professional. I recommend her to anyone who is in need of someone to love on their fur baby and care for them.
Kyla was communicative, reliable, and so pleasant to work with. This was our first time leaving our cat, and she truly eased my guilt and anxiety by keeping me updated and taking great care of our girl. I would absolutely recommend Kyla to friends and wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again whenever we’re out of town.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Cottonwood on Rover is $21.4 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 6,067 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.
