“Reagan is amazing! She was so attentive to instructions for our elderly labradoodle who takes several medications throughout the day. Reagan was prompt to every drop-in time and super communicative. We came home to a reenergized dog who was clearly so very well taken care of!”

“Kelly was AMAZING!!! Her timing was prompt & she went above and beyond my expectations. Working long shifts in healthcare leaves me so stressed knowing my furbabies are at home alone & knowing they got such good care from Kelly was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Seriously, I can’t thank her enough. For taking the extra time to walk her, making sure she got multiple potty opportunities, and the photo updates. Highly recommend 🤩”

“We left our cat, Moses, in Aaron’s care for 31 days. When we returned, Moses was well fed and well hydrated. Now that we are back home, I think Moses misses Aaron more than missed us! 😊 Aaron not only cared for our cat, he provided kindness and love. I could tell from the photos Aaron sent after every visit that Moses was comfortable being around him. Thank you Aaron, we will 100% contact when we leave for our next extended vacation.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals. Cats, dogs, lizards, snakes, hamsters, etc. I have also owned all of those animals. I will imitate what you do at home so that their schedule remains intact because as a pet parent I know how important that schedule can be. I only work at night three days a week. I have a lot of free time on my hands during the week. Especially in the day time. I will take care of your pet just how you would. Everything you do I will do my best to replicate it. I’m here to make them as comfortable as you would.

I have a lot of experience with walking, bathing, and feeding pets, and am flexible to assist other needs specific to your pet.

About: Hi! My name is Lyndsey, and I’ve been working professionally with dogs since 2017 as a full-time dog groomer. Caring for animals is something I do every day, and I have experience handling pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience, I understand that every animal has unique needs. I currently share my home with both dogs and cats, so caring for pets is a big part of my daily life. My professional grooming experience has taught me how to safely handle nervous, shy, excited, and high-energy pets while helping them feel comfortable and secure. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand how important routines are to pets, and I do my best to keep them comfortable while their owners are away. I work full-time as a dog groomer Monday through Friday during daytime hours. Because of my schedule, I am best suited for morning visits, evening visits, overnight stays, weekend care, and holiday care. I always communicate clearly with pet parents and provide updates so you can feel confident your pets are receiving excellent care. My goal is to treat every pet like one of my own and provide dependable, loving care while you’re away I’m a full time dog groomer, currently working 9-5 Monday-Friday. I am still able to drop morning or afternoon drop ins also overnights as needed I care for 4 dogs and 2 cats who have their own schedules. I also bring one of my dogs to work with me everyday

About: Hello! I’m Carley. I’m 32. I have been around and cared for pets my entire life; big and small, young and old. I have been a veterinary assistant for the past 4 years. Therefore I have the experience and knowledge that others might not. So when your fur babies are in my care, you can have peace of mind knowing that they are in good hands. I am willing to adjust to your pet's needs in any way possible; scheduled meal times, administering meds, etc. I believe pets are family and I will treat yours like my own! I hope to hear from you! I currently work 4 days a week as a vet assistant but otherwise my schedule is open. I am pretty flexible and willing to adjust my availability to you and your pet’s needs. Anytime a pet is in my care, their safety and well-being is my number one priority. I have a big heart for animals and their little lives are very important to me. I will do whatever I can to keep them happy and healthy during our time together.

About: Hi, I’m Janine! I’ve been pet sitting since 2017 and have built years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs through in-home sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I also have volunteer and fostering experience through Pawmetto Lifeline, where I’ve worked with animals of all ages, temperaments, and care needs. I’ve grown up with cats in my household my entire life and currently have 3 cats of my own, so animal care is something I’m deeply familiar with on a daily basis. This has given me strong awareness of routine, behavior changes, and the importance of consistency, patience, and trust when caring for pets in someone else’s home. In addition to cats and dogs, I have experience caring for a wide variety of small animals including rabbits, hamsters, and fish. I also keep snails of my own, so I’m very comfortable with unique care routines and smaller or less common pets. Truly, no animals are off limits for me! I enjoy learning each pet’s individual personality and needs. I’m also experienced with administering oral medication (including my own cat who takes a daily pill), nail trims, feeding routines, enrichment, and structured walks for dogs of all energy levels. I work a regular 9–5, but I’m available for pet check-ins during lunch breaks and after work throughout the week. I am also available on select weekends. I work remotely on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which allows me to check in more frequently or stay with your pet during the day while working from home if they need extra attention or company. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable when their owners are away. I always follow care instructions closely and pay attention to routines and any behavior changes. Whether it’s drop-ins or in-home care, I aim to keep things calm, consistent, and stress-free. I’m respectful of your home, reliable, and will keep you updated with messages and pics so you always know your pet is doing well.

I’m so happy that I decided on Nontombe! :) I have booked with them 3x over the past few months, and am always happy with the turnout! They’re always thorough, communicative and friendly to my kitties! I’m sad to be moving out of state, because I’m sure most sitters won’t be able to compete with Nontombe!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Crane Forest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 153 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Crane Forest. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Crane Forest. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
