“Mary was wonderful! She made an instant connection with my cat, LaTot, who is usually VERY selective about who she warms up to. Mary clearly has a special touch with cats and is truly a cat whisperer! Unfortunately, a change in my work travel schedule means I can't hire her right now, but I recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive kitten nanny. Your fur babies would be in wonderful hands with Mary!”
About: I have had dogs and cats in my home since i was born. I currently live with roommates who have two dogs, and I am the one they rely on when both are gone or away for long periods of time. I work full time, I work mornings mostly and occasional afternoons but they are only about 4 hours. I am able to come in before mornings but I work at 6:30 am. other than that I can stop by anytime I am not working I take dogs out often, and love to play with them. I also enjoy playing with cats and will always make sure they have fresh litter.
“Gabby is just wonderful. Extremely thoughtful and so good with Jojo. He immediately went to her as if she had been around our family for years. It was so great to see. We have already rebooked many sessions with her!”
“Dawnlea is an amazing pet sitter! My pup has separation anxiety, but she was so warm, calm, and sweet with Matilde. She cleaned up my house when she had a little bit of an accident and was extremely communicative, always providing lots of updates and photos throughout her visits too. Definitely recommended her services to everyone in the Janesville area! 😄”
About: I have been around animals my whole life and currently have 1 cat of my own! I graduated college to be a vet tech and currently have been a full time vet tech for 5 years. I also have an emergency veterinary background as well! I have dog sat many times for family, friends and neighbors.I love taking care of animals in all aspects! I currently work overnight at a veterinary emergency clinic so I am very flexible with scheduling! During the day, I am mostly free even if the calendar says otherwise! I like to go for runs in the morning and can easily incorporate your pet! My cat is friendly with other dogs and there is some parks.
“If you want someone that is going to love on your pup as if they are your own, then Haylee is absolutely the sitter for you. My dog is intense and intimidating when first meeting new people. Haylee took it all in stride, confidently handling his barking and giving him exactly what he needed to let his guard down. She spent as much time as he needed at the check-ins. I cannot recommend Haylee enough! She gives me peace of mind knowing that my pup is incredibly well cared for, whether I'm gone for an extra long work day or a multi-day trip.”
“Michael is great - we have used him a couple of times. He is very responsive when communicating and our two dogs really like him (and they aren't the easiest of dogs to sit for. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

About: I’ve grown up caring for cats and dogs and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. I have an active dog of my own who loves going on long walks, so I’m very comfortable keeping energetic dogs active and entertained. As a high-level athlete, I’m active myself and genuinely enjoy being outdoors, whether that’s walking, playing, or simply spending time with a pet. I’ve also helped neighbors care for their animals while they were away. Right now I’m training in Milwaukee and have practice at 3:30 so I can take care of your pet during the day but also after practice if needed. Would be preferred if I did at the clients house but I live in a apartment right now they have a dog park and sorts.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 298 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Darien. 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 .

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.
