“Kristen has taken care of my 3 cats for at least 2 years. They are happy to see her, she gives lots of pets & scratches. I am very comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care.”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy giving pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine. I understand that every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, cuddle on the couch, or simply have some company, I’m happy to be there for them! I am currently working full time, Monday-Friday. My hours are 7am-3:30pm. I always check on animals before work and when I get off work. My weekends are open if needed, I typically check on animals twice to three times on my off days. I will always look after animals in their own home. This makes them more comfortable, and they won’t be scared of my animals or their surroundings. I am always willing to come by before your scheduled service and get them used to me so it’s not so shocking for them.
About: I’ve had had family dogs and taken care of others dogs off and on. Willing to work around your dogs needs! If you have any concerns don’t hesitate to reach out. I do work part-time and go to college full-time. I pet sit in my free time to pay for tuition. I will be graduating with my associates this fall. I have a fenced in back yard. My neighborhood has sidewalks and safe pathways. This also includes a dog park. There are no cats or dogs inside my current home.
About: I am very passionate about giving a pet their best life by taking them to experience new places and things because the world is beautiful and I love showing them pieces of it that I may take for granted. Being raised in a pet family, I learned lots of skills that I use in my day to day life like responsibility, integrity, loyalty, patience, and kindness. I grew up with a Golden Retriever, Husky, and American Eskimo. I loved and cared for all of them, while growing confident in my skills of: teaching tricks, bathing them, cleaning up messes, playing with them, walking them, taking them out to go potty, feeding them, grooming them, and loving on them. I cannot wait to have the opportunity of meeting more cute dogs in the future! I currently work a flexible full time job during Monday-Friday. I am always off for the evenings and have breaks in between seeing clients as well throughout the day. I am off for weekends and typically available, unless there are prior plans that I've committed to. I ensure that all pet needs are met and check on the pet at least 3x time a day (subject to change depending on the owners preferences). I take them out to go potty, I feed them food and water, and I take them on at least one walk per day. I will spend a portion of time playing with them and giving them attention to ensure they feel loved. If I am watching them during the weekend, I will take them to a park and to grab a pup cup, with the owners permission. If they get dirty or leave a mess, I will make sure to clean them up and the mess up as well. Overall, I want the owner to come back to a stress-free home and to a healthy & happy pet!
About: I have extensive experience caring for the animals of family and friends. With a great deal of patience, I can help even the shyest animals feel comfortable and secure. Over time, I build strong, trusting relationships with the animals I care for, ensuring they feel loved and well-taken care of. I'm a mom of one teenager who is an animal lover as well I'm always up at 6 am to see my daughter off to school on the bus and my husband to work I'm a stay-at-home mom I keep the house clean and other stuff around the house but I mostly love spending time with our 2 dogs and one cat When watching your loved one in my home I want your pets to feel at home and comfortable I want my house to be your pet's vacation away from Home my house is a big animal lover so your pets will get love and care with my family.
About: Caring for animals is my passion, and I have been providing dedicated pet care for over 10 years. I prioritize the comfort and happiness of every pet, treating them as if they were my own, and ensuring a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine. I manage the needs of high-energy breeds with active play and outings, maintain a clean and secure environment, and am vigilant in observing any signs of distress or health changes. I am CPR and First Aid trained. In emergencies, I remain calm, follow pre-discussed plans, and always have emergency contact information readily available. Witnessing their unique personalities and helping shy pets feel comfortable brings me joy. My kindness and empathy make me a great fit for caring for your beloved companions. I would love to use my pet-sitting, walking, and grooming skills to care for your dogs and cats! Available any time or day. Date night, work, sleep, jus need a break I’m here to help with your pets and would love the opportunity. Fenced in yard, treats and food , safe and clean house, plenty of toys and treats and care and anything extra they may need. Thanks

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - DeCordova
Daniella was an absolutely amazing pet sitter! She checked in on my 2 cats 2x a day for 7 days. Every visit included a text update and 10-14 photos of my babies. I really appreciated the communication, as this was the first time I had left them alone for such a long period of time. Daniella ensured all requests for the pets were done, she communicated clearly/often, and I came home to happy babies and a tidy home. She even helped get my mail from the mail box. Absolutely amazing person and great at what she does. I will be booking again in the future. Thank you again!
I would give TEN stars, if I could. We are all obsessed with our pets so having someone like Daniella who was so loving, funny, and kind to our fur babies while we were out of town was such a relief!!! She sent pics and messages at each visit and ensured our 2 dogs and cat were well loved for! We will be repeat customers for sure!!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in DeCordova is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $26 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.

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.

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.
