“Adrianna is great, very communicative and she took great care of my cat. I have a very shy cat, but with Adrianna she felt comfortable of roaming around and even approach her. Thank you”

About: Hello my name is Tuyen (twin). I’ve been dog sitting for 8 years of all ages & sizes. I’m a dog lover and adore animals with great passion. I’m patient, attentive, loving, trustworthy and playful with dogs. I love to give them what they need/deserve. I would watch my friends dogs when they’re out of town or at work, I would feed, let them out for potty breaks or take them on a neighborhood walk. When caring for dogs, my goal is to spend as much outside as possible , go on adventures, relax on the couch & give them a lot of treats. They deserve the best love & life while they’re on earth. I work part time Monday-Friday, I am off at 5:30PM. I can do drop ins if needed before or after I work. I am also available on the weekends. I would love to take your dog on daily walks to the park if you don’t have time any of those days/times :) In order to make you feel trusted & comfortable with me to take care of your fur babies, I will take multiple pics, follow instructions what’s needed for your fur babies care & to know what their feeding schedule is. I will update you as much as I can when I do drop ins or spend the night with them. I will make sure they’re happy, fed, and give them lots of love while you’re gone.

About: I’ve always been around cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve mastered the process of giving medications. I’ve volunteered in a shelter some years ago and I learned a lot while I was there. I’ve trained all of my current and past pets and even helped some friends with theirs. I craft my own pet food in my kitchen to ensure all nutrients are available to them. I take pet health to a very serious level! Currently, I’m just in school So I have plenty of time. I’m available Mon- sun at 10am, 3pm, and anytime after 5pm! Friday is the only day that I’m available at 11am rather than 10am but I’m free for the day after 11am. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I take time to learn their personality, feeding schedule, litter habits, and any specific needs before caring for them. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I’m also attentive to doors, windows, plants, and anything else a curious pet could get into. I give pets plenty of attention and playtime while also respecting them when they need space. If they need medication or any extra care, I’m comfortable handling that as well.

About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I understand how important consistency and patience are while owners are away. I can help with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication reminders, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’m especially focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their home environment, while also keeping owners updated with photos and communication throughout the stay. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m able to plan my days around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets get consistent attention and care. I’m also reliable with communication and updates, so owners can feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well cared for while they’re away. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household rules or instructions. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and supervision. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, keep communication open with regular updates and photos, and prioritize making pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away.

About: Hey! My name is Maxx and I would love to be friends with your furry friend. I work in the vet med field so my entire life revolves around animal care and health. Working with animals has been what I’ve wanted to do since I was little. It is one of my favorite passions. I do work full time in Ankeny but my evenings are usually open. I am off 3 days a week so if daily care or a doggy day sitter is needed I would be happy to help. I give all pets that come into my home special attention. As a foster parent there have been many instances where I have needed to provide extra care from a medical standpoint. In your home I would be happy to respect any boundaries you have set for your pet and will clean up after myself as needed.

About: My friends, family and neighbors have come to me when they need someone to look after their pets. I’ve pet sit for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hedgehogs, fish and reptiles. During the week, I have veterinary school with breaks between classes. I was a vet assistant for 5 years so I gained plenty of experience with a variety of animals. Animal care is one of my passions so walking and sitting in my free time is something I enjoy! I’m am a veterinary student during the week so I’m looking to help walk dogs or pet sit on the weekends and days I get off. I have breaks between classes that I can utilize as well I live in an apartment with lots of trails and parks nearby. I hope to get them outside and walking especially during nice days. I’m more than happy to go to the pet to stay/check on them when you’re away

Kassi did a great job taking care of my cats on fairly short notice. They were happy and healthy when I returned home and she sent great pics while I was gone to let me know how they were doing. I will definitely have her watch them again if the need comes up!

Aubrie was great with our kitties while we were gone. She met them first, which gave us an idea how she interacted with them and gave us a chance to show her where supplies were. She was great about sharing 3 to 4 pictures every visit of them playing, eating, and just being cute. She made sure to send a good note each visit with the Rover Card and pictures. We would definitely use Aubrie again to take care of our cats when we leave town!!

This was my first time using a pet sitting service to care for my cat while away for 2 weeks. Alyssa was a God send! The meet and greet was great and Alyssa was on time every day and sent me details on my cat's eating, drinking and use of the litter box. She also sent me daily photos. I promise you will be 100% satisfied and your fur baby(s) will always be taken care of!!!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Crocker

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Crocker is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $16 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 529 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Crocker. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 , 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.
