Payton was an absolutely fantastic cat sitter, and I can’t recommend her enough. She cared for my cat over multiple days and consistently showed dedication and reliability with three drop-in visits each day—early morning, midday, and late at night. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was being checked on regularly and thoughtfully. What really stood out was her communication. Payton is incredibly responsive and always lets us know ahead of time if there are any changes to her usual schedule, which I really appreciated. It made it easy to stay informed and feel confident everything was under control. After every visit, she sent a sweet update along with photos, which truly made my day and reassured me that my cat was happy and well cared for. On top of that, she was very attentive to our home—bringing in packages and making sure everything, including the alarm system, was secure and functioning properly. Overall, Payton went above and beyond. She is reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful pet sitter.

TLDR: Giselle is amazing with both immediately friendly dogs and reactive dogs who need longer to warm up. Giselle was amazing with both of our girls! We have a labradoodle who is a true velcro dog and a terrier mix who is not a fan of strangers. We went through rover because we wanted our dogs to start getting used to new people. I was extremely nervous about leaving our terrier mix with someone new. She's not a biter but she does bark and charge at strangers who go near her. We scheduled a meet and greet a few days early with Giselle and she stayed until the terrier settled. During the actual drop ins, at first the terrier did not want to go to Giselle at all but Giselle was patient and sat with her to show her she was safe. By the second or third drop in, the terrier was not just okay with Giselle but genuinely excited to see her! We were so relieved that our dogs were comfortable while we were away.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I have also taken care of guinea pigs, small birds and fish. I have always been an animal lover and have a passion for them. I treat them like my own children. I even have a two dogs and a cat of my own. I believe in treating them with gentleness, kindness and compassion. I am currently a homemaker of an older child. I am available everyday to care for your pets. I can stop by and do potty breaks, walks, playtime etc. I can also spend more time with them to give them company and affection. House sitting with your fur babies is also an option. My husband can take care of the needs at home while I care for your pets. I can offer playtime, medication administration if needed, walks, potty breaks, attention etc. plus any other needs that are special to your fur babies. I can also crate your pet if need be. I pride myself on the safety and protection of all fur babies.

About: 30+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes—from Chihuahuas to Malamutes. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, and seniors needing extra patience and care. I’ve volunteered at veterinary offices and trained under a professional dog trainer, so I understand dog behavior, basic health needs, and safe handling. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or sitting, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and on their routine. Reliable, attentive, and experienced—you can trust your dog is in good hands. Currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for care. I’m available for daily walks, drop-ins, and playtime throughout the week after 4pm, with open availability for boarding, extended stays, and weekend care. I’m happy to accommodate both regular weekly schedules and last-minute needs whenever possible—your dog’s routine and happiness come first. Safe, two-story home with a fully fenced yard in a quiet, low-traffic Lake Houston community. Nearby trails and dog parks for plenty of exercise. I prioritize supervision, secure spaces, and a calm environment so your pup feels safe and at home.

About: I have fallen in love with every kitten whom I've ever met, and I would love to add yours to that list. Whether your baby likes to play or prefers to lounge in the sunlight and enjoy royalty status, I have the perfect most loving home for them to visit. I am located in the heart of Kingwood and have a medium apartment with plenty of space for your kitty to roam around, sunlight for basking, and wood panel floors for a worry free stay. I have a convenient hybrid work schedule allowing me to be at home an extra two days out of the week (Monday and Friday), and for Tuesday through Thursday I work downtown typical hours, allowing me to be home around 5ish. This leaves me plenty of time in the evenings and all weekend to spend some quality time with your baby, outside of just seeing to basic needs. For most days I should be able to meet internal clock meal times to a T, ensuring consistency and peace of mind for your kitty. I do not currently have a cat of my own, so if your baby prefers not being looked after with other furry friends, they'll have nothing to worry about. I have plenty of space and window-cast sunlight beams for any cat to feel at home and comfortable. It is just myself and my son at home, so there is plenty of attention available to love and dote on your baby. I have space for any accommodations needed, such as litter boxes and/or larger toys or scratching posts. For those cool cats who enjoy outdoor walks and some fresh air, I have the Town Center park practically right outside my front door and would love to go enjoy a nice walk with them.

About: I have two dogs of my own back home, Bonnie and Clyde, that I am absolutely obsessed with! Being away for school makes me miss them so much. I love every dog like it’s my own and give them all the care and attention I can! Both my roommates have dogs so I have experience and the responsibility to take care of pets that aren’t technically mine. I love helping people and being someone they can rely on when they are in need! I have house/dog sat for multiple people and have always had success. I work in the athletic department for WSU which gives me very good time management skills and discipline when it comes to jobs or tasks that need to be completed.

About: Hi, My name is Paige and I'm a Pet Sitter. I'm 26, I love animals and have great experience with them. I have 2 dogs of my own. I'd be happy to work with you and your pet. When I take care of animals these are things that I do - 1) Feed and water animals according to schedule and feeding instructions, 2) Mix food and food supplements according to instructions, 3) Provide treatment to sick animals according to veterinarian directions, 4) Discuss with clients their pet needs, 5) Perform animal grooming duties such as washing, brushing coats, trimming nails (on cats). I am very friendly and outgoing, I would love to get to know you and your pet. I look forward to meeting you. Sincerely, Paige R. I work at the local Mont Belvieu H-E-B. I do both H-E-B and pet sitting at the same time. I work around my schedule accordingly to pet sitting jobs. I'm currently not taking pets in my home. As for taking care of pets in my client’s homes. I'm very respectful, I put the pet before myself. I make sure your animal is taking care of, loved and feels safe.

About: Hi there, I have always had an animal growing up and therefore have always loved caring for them! Ever since I was little I have said I get along with animals more than I do humans! I would love to help assist in caring for your fur baby while you’re away. I also want to mention that I have a fur baby of my own named Teddy Winston. He is currently a 2 year old Labradoodle who loves to play outside, go for boat rides, and go for car rides! I am a full time SAHM! My life is very busy between being a new mom and taking care of my family. Please reach out and I will talk with you regarding my schedule. I am very protective of my dog Teddy and always want the best for him. He is apart of the family and will always be treated as such. He gets high quality food, regular vet visits, and lots of attention. I promise to treat your pet just like my own and he/she will be in the best of hands with me. My goal is to bond with your animal and vice versa.

I am also available for walks and exercise if your pet needs to run and play while you are away. Let me take care of your four legged friends while you are away or in need of pet sitting services of any kind. Thank you for considering me and have a great day.

About: I’ve had dogs as part of my life since I could walk growing up in Trinidad. Migrating to the states, we didn’t own pets for awhile and it always was a void for me. My oldest sister adopting Pebbles (pictured) was the best experience and reminded me that I love being the fun/cool Aunty. I have taken care of dogs from a young puppy age all up til adult hood, and I would be honored to care for yours even if for just a few hours. I work from home but I enjoy taking walks around the neighborhood whenever I get a break to do so. This is a dog friendly neighborhood so it won’t be an issue walking with a dog or two. I also like to drive to the park in the mornings for a brisk walk, depending on how comfortable owners are, I would love to take their dogs with. I would prefer to utilize whatever household items the owner utilizes, however I am willing to buy a crate etc in order to make things more comfortable if that’s what’s needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Dayton on Rover is $11.1 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 642 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dayton. 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 Dayton. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
