“Treates my boys so well. Spent time with them, gave them their meds, and sent lots of photos. Gave us peace of mind, especially with two anxious pups that aren't used to new people. Definitely re-booking for when we go away again!”
About: We have a 9 year old dog named Arlo. He is a bulldog, cattledog, and collie mix. He is very energetic and loves to play but if a dog is laid back.. he will get the message and give space as well. We also have a 2 year old cat at home as well. I have watched all types of dogs from small to very large. Your dog will be well cared for, and well loved. My kids love playing with dogs as well, so you know he/she will get plenty of play time! I am very flexible and can work within your schedule. I am also home a lot so he/she will rarely be alone. Can provide a discount if paid in cash Home most of the day. Really flexible most of the time but more available for last minute drop ins during the week oppose to weekend. I am home most if not all day so the dog will never be alone for long periods of time. I try to follow the same routine the dog is used to at home and ask for owners to bring their comfort items if they have any.
“Elizabeth M. Is an excellent cat sitter. She was punctual and sent regular detailed notes on her visits — including sweet photos that somehow captured the cats’ personalities and moods. It was a great comfort while I was far away on a work trip to get to see my cherished kitties. She took the time to get to know them, play, and even “chat” with Peaches, our vocal chatterbox, and quickly won over our shy-with-strangers Miso. Liz also took in stride a few unexpected meetings with my son (quick stops from college and a visit to a friend) and kindly chatted with him about school. When I was faced with impending international flight delays home due to a massive snow storm, she assured us that she would help us bridge a time gap before our neighbor could get over. It all worked out in the end but, again, Liz put me at ease, and that was welcome in the midst of travel drama. When we got home the cats were happy and healthy and calm. I will not hesitate to book Elizabeth again.”
“Hanna did an excellent job stopping by my house each day to care for my two cats while I was away on a trip. She fed them, cleaned and filled their water bowls, cleaned the litter boxes, disposed of the litter in the garbage can outside, and paid special attention to them each day ❤️. It was awesome that she sent me photos and videos of her petting and playing with them! And it let me know that they were in good hands while I was away. I can’t express my gratitude enough. Thank you, Hanna!”
“Mikayla is an amazing sitter and set my mind at ease the entire time we were away by sending pics and updates with every visit. When we met her, we could tell she has so much compassion and love for all animals. I feel lucky to have found her and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“A very happy repeat client here! Lily did an outstanding job taking care of my kitty through drop-in visits, and even went above and beyond bringing in a package from my porch that arrived while I was out of town. She's a great sitter!”
“Sydney did a super job with my two babies! They warmed up to her right away, which speaks volumes about her ability to immediately connect with my cats. She was prompt and stayed for the entire drop-in visit. Those are things that are important to me and that I truly appreciate. I will use her again and I definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals, especially dogs, and spending time caring for them. I grew up around pets and have always been the type of person who treats animals like family. I’m very patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. My schedule is very flexible right now, so I’m able to work around your pet’s routine and give them the attention they deserve. I’m also happy to send photo and video updates during visits so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing with toys, getting extra cuddles, or just having company, I’m more than happy to spend quality time with them and make sure they’re well cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule after recently graduating college. Right now, my main focus is studying for the MCAT, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets throughout the day. I’m able to work around your pet’s schedule and give them consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I always make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for by following their normal routines as closely as possible. I pay close attention to instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I also make sure owners stay updated with pictures and messages so they can feel reassured while away.

I’m currently looking for a job, so I’m able to commit a lot of hours to pet sitting at this time. I can’t wait to get started! I’m currently living in an apartment, so I will not be able to board any pets in my home. However, in the future I might be able to!

About: My whole life I grew up around animals. We had many dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. I had dogs from 5 pounds to 100 pounds. I’ve had chihuahuas, Shepherds, mastiffs, and Rottweilers. We also had guinea pigs and rabbits. I was taking care of my dogs and animals at a young age. I was also around a police dog growing up, so I knew at a young age how to be calm and gentle. I’ve had puppies to seniors who I’ve had to put down. I’ve been around dogs who are very protective of their food and their belongings. I’ve also been around dogs who have needed to stay separated because of them not getting along. I’ve taken my friends dogs to vets before. I also have two cats so I am completely okay with them as well. I own a 60 pound German Shepherd who Is very friendly towards my cats. I am in the middle of training him. He is a puller when we go on walks, so I do have experience with strong animals. I am not a picky person at all, so if your animal has any sort of disorder or illness, I will not judge nor mind at all. I am also very flexible with anything, so if you have any certain requests, please feel free to ask! I currently take care of family & friends animals on the side! They all are super satisfied with my work! I had one client who continued to book me outside of this app, it was easier for her & I watched her kitties at a 2 year duration! I am able to play with high energy animals, along with just chilling on the couch if they like to snuggle or need to sleep

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cove
We were able to book Sandy on short notice, to check in our cat while we were gone for three days. We told her not to be alarmed, if she did not see him, because he disappears when there are strangers in the house. Because there was no cat to be seen, Sandy sent us pictures of his empty food dishes. :-) When we arrived home our cat greeted us. Having Sandy was a good experience. We would not hesitate to use her services again. Thank You Sandy...

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Cove on Rover is $23.87 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 585 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cove. 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 Cove. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% 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.
