“Laura did a great job of cat sitting for our cat! Our cat is notoriously feisty with new people, but Laura put her at ease. Would definitely recommend and book Laura again!”
“Couldn’t recommend Elizabeth enough! She was watched my dog and 2 cats while I traveled internationally. She was incredibly accommodating and communicative. This was our first time leaving our dog for so long and she did a wonderful job of making him feel comfortable and relaxed. One of my cats also is usually incredibly shy around strangers and Elizabeth is the only sitter I’ve used from Rover who he comes out for. Our flight got delayed and Elizabeth was very accommodating to the change in the schedule. We are so appreciative!”
“Stacy was fantastic! This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous but Stacy made it easy and took great care of my cats. Will be re-booking her for my trip next month!”
“Stacie did a wonderful, wonderful job with the kittens. I was extremely nervous, as it was my first time getting a cat sitter, but we are extremely lucky Stacie was available. She is very thorough and kind. I would recommend her to any cat owner looking for someone to make a house visit.”
“Kamron was amazing, will definitely book again! He was very communicative and sent pics each visit, and two of my cats needed meds and he had no issue giving them (a pill, liquid oral med, and asthma inhaler). Highly recommend!”
“Megan did an incredible job - following instructions, sending cute photos and lovely messages to describe the visit - giving me great peace of mind during a long trip away. I will definitely be rebooking Megan in the future. Great job Megan! You are a life saver.”
“Solange was a godsend for me when I unexpectedly adopted a 5 week old kitten the week before my beach trip. She did all of my special request for my little guy and the check ins throughout the day helped ease my worries so I could enjoy my trip. Trust your animals are in good hands with her! I will absolutely be booking with her again for help in the future”
“Deedee did an excellent job taking care of our cats! Her daily updates and photos gave us great peace of mind and always left us with a smile. She made sure to give them plenty of playtime and attention, and it was clear how quickly they warmed up to her. I sincerely thank Deedee for her care and happily endorse her services. I will definitely call on her again in the future!”
“My second time booking with Zerandrian and another wonderful experience! I had a last minute change to my travel plans and Zerandrian was super flexible and communicative. Will definitely be re-booking again next time my 4-legged babies need a sitter! Thanks so much, Zerandrian!”
“Jax is great. She is reliable and we feel at ease when she takes care of our 2 sweet doggies. She is very responsive, understands what our dogs’ needs are, and always sends pictures to check in. We are so grateful to have found her both for our overnight care and our daily drop ins when needed.”
“Ella is the BEST. She is responsible, warm, thoughtful, and reliable. She took excellent care of our cat while we were away - I had total peace of mind that he was being lovingly cared for!”
“Julianna provides great feedback about my dog during her visits and is super responsive! I appreciate the support system of an experienced pet sitter while adjusting to new routines and discovering new behaviors of my new rescue dog.”
“Jessica was amazing with my dogs! They can be challenging, and they absolutely love her! She is wonderful and provides time with each of my 3 dogs. She is extremely patient and affectionate! I will definitely ask her to watch them many more times in the future! Thank you so much!!!”
“Melanie was fantastic with both our cats. Our skittish kitten opened up to her, as did our older cat. They were well fed, litter was good, and they were played with. Our cats were not super desperate to see us when we got back, which we take as a sign that they were in good hands.”
“Kaitlyn was great with my sometimes ornery kitty, Peaches! I’ll be using her when I go to Clayton, GA to visit my sister! Such a relief to know pets are in good hands! Thank you, Kaitlyn & Rover!!!”
“Ryan is great with our dog Wylder. He drops in over the weekend and takes him for walks/potty breaks. He sends photos of him playing and info on what they did. Wylder definitely seems happier and calmer since Ryan has been dropping in.”
“Andre was very detailed and thorough, and he took care of our cats very well. He communicated excellently, sending detailed updates and quality pictures. His updates made us not worry about the cats, because we knew they were well cared for.”
About: I've taken care of house animals for over a decade, working with all types from small dogs and puppies to my very large white lab Drake and a few different cats! I'm comfortable walking, feeding, crating, managing potty breaks, and diffusing stressful situations (I have a dog who was abused as a puppy and struggles with certain new people so I'm no stranger to barking/feelings of threat). As a sitter, I believe a gentle touch and strong boundaries truly help our pets thrive and grow safely. I can't wait to meet your furry friends! I'm currently babysitting part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule during both weekdays and weekends to check in on and take care of your pets! While caring for pets in others' homes, the first thing I seek to establish is trust. I get it, I'm a new person invading your pet's space and it's scary! That's why I initially take some time to build rapport through playing and petting, and I start with slow, gentle movements. Once they feel more comfortable around me, my focus shifts to making sure they have all of my attention, everything they need (food, water, clean bed, etc.), and keeping the home a safe space for them while you are away!
“Lynn was a great pet sitter for my cats! She watched them over the holidays while we were out of town and sent tons of photos which were so cute. Even gave them some extra treats for a Christmas Eve feast which was so sweet. The cats seemed very well taken care of when we arrived home. Definitely recommend Lynn’s pet sitting services!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Decatur
Remington is such an amazing sitter! Incredibly kind and goes out of his way to help when he doesn’t have to. For example, my kitten smashed our glass soap dispenser in our sink and he (without hesitation) picked up all the pieces and tossed them to prevent any kitty injuries! I was recommended Remington by a friend who also had a great experience, and he definitely exceeded expectations! 10/10 recommend!!
Emilie is super easy to work with, responsive, and leaves awesome checkin notes and pictures. She went above and beyond helping check an AC issue during the last few visits, which I greatly appreciate. I feel totally safe leaving her in care of my cat, and definitely recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Decatur on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,564 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Decatur. 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.

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.
