About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs, including my previous dog, an 80-pound Golden Retriever. She could be reactive toward other dogs while on leash, so I became very comfortable handling strong dogs, staying calm in challenging situations, and maintaining control even when she was pulling. In addition to caring for my previous dog, I have regularly looked after neighbors’ and friends’ dogs by walking, feeding, and ensuring they were well cared for while their owners were away. In my personal life I love going on long runs up to 6 miles so if you have a higher energy dog that would like to join me I would love to take them with me! I am currently a university student, and I have off of school until the spring semester begins in February. I am free most weekends, and weekdays Monday-Friday. I am comfortable your dog or dogs in any environment. I have taken care of dogs that used special harness’ or prong collars so I know how to work those if needed. I love to run and hike so I can also bring your dog along if they are extra energetic!

I cannot say enough about Laura. We love our kitty, Dolly, and she in turn is very attached to us. We booked a last-minute vacation and learned that our kitty-sitter had moved out of the area. The minute Laura arrived for a meet and greet I knew I had found the perfect person to care for Dolly. She did everything we asked, and did it well, graciously accepted on-the-fly schedule changes, sent photos and warm, loving messages with each visit. She is absolutely wonderful. We've already asked her to plan for our next two trips.

Roger ROCKS! He took great care of our doggies while we were away, and truly cared to make sure they were comfortable and happy. We arranged for daily house-sitting while we were away, and couldn’t have been happier; Roger even swept up the house and deck, cleaned up the dog crates, and even did a bit of weeding — all of his own volition! It was great knowing the dogs were in good hands, and a big treat to come back to an even cleaner house. We’ll definitely be checking in with Roger next time we’ll be going away!

Cayton is very kind, personable, and flexible! She has great communication and provided us a thorough report and photos on every single visit with our dog. She even sent us a notification when she was checking in and out of her visits. She was kind enough to bring up both of our garbage cans up our long driveway as well and she did that out of courtesy! Highly recommend her for your pet care needs.

A picture is worth a thousand words! The photos Ly-Linh sent showed my dogs being their goofy selves. My senior dog who tends to be shy made a friend. Ly-Linh made sure he received all his meds, inhaler included. Ly-Linh was professional, communicated promptly and regularly, and loving! ❤️ We could enjoy our trip without worry!

About: I have been house sitting overnight since I was 14. I have experience working with dogs, cats, mice, and flying squirrels. Believe it or not, I have taken care of dogs who were indoor-trained only.I am also an experienced dog walker- not just with my own dogs but with friends' dogs that I've loved as my own. **serious inquiries only** please do not send me a booking request if you're going to ghost me after I respond or if you plan to book with another sitter. You'd be surprised by how often this happens. I abide by the safety precautions at the homes I stay at (fences, ring cameras, etc). When I stay with indoor cats, I take extra precautions when leaving the house to make sure the cats don't escape.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received! Serenity was absolutely amazing, she went above and beyond to make sure they were not only well fed and safe, but also loved and comforted while I was away. She provided regular updates, photos, and was incredibly responsive and kind. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!

About: I have experience with pet sitting, walking, and drop in visits. I am looking forward to hearing the needs of your fur baby to have them enjoy their time to the max! I have free time to care for your pet as I work from home and my family is prepared and ready to help when needed! We have space for your pet to enjoy and share our home. We have places and a bed they can go to relax and we love to take them out to play and sniff around in the yard.

Vincent was a very attentive sitter and took great care of our cats. One of our cats got sick while we were away. He was in close contact with us regarding his condition and also reached out to our vet to get their advice. I can highly recommend him as someone who can be trusted to look after your pets as he would his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him as a sitter again.

Sarah has been amazing to work with. She’s incredibly reliable, very communicative, and just an all-around friendly, positive person. My dog loved her instantly and now gets so excited every time she sees her, which says everything. She takes her on long walks and always sends great photo updates, so I feel completely at ease knowing how well she’s doing. It’s clear she genuinely cares. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to care for their pet!

About: Hi there! My name is Ellie, and I’m a passionate animal lover with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have pups of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your furry family member — and I treat every pet I meet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a drop-in to check on meals and snuggles, or full-on overnight care, I’ve got you covered. I’m reliable, patient, and fully committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them the care they deserve! I currently work full-time during the day, but pet care is truly a passion of mine and a fulfilling part of my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins and walks in the early mornings before work and in the evenings after I get home. In some cases, I’m also able to swing by during my lunch break for a quick visit, depending on location and timing. I also offer overnight stays, which allows me to spend quality, uninterrupted time with your pet — perfect for dogs who need extra comfort or company while you’re away. While my weekday daytime availability is limited, I’m dependable, communicative, and always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve when I’m with them! When your pet is in my care, their well-being is my top priority. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs, routines, and personalities — and I take the time to get to know them so I can provide care that makes them feel safe, seen, and loved. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like one of my own, with patience, affection, and respect. I’m mindful, responsible, and always keep safety at the forefront — whether that’s making sure harnesses are secure, sticking to feeding instructions, or giving them their favorite toy at just the right moment. I believe animals know when someone truly cares for them — and I make it my mission to create a peaceful, loving environment where your pet can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

Fran is the best! She went above and beyond in taking care of our three cats when we were away. One cat was far from cooperative and she adeptly handled a difficult situation. I would highly recommend Fran as she is very responsive and cares for the animals that she is watching. Your mind will be at ease knowing that Fran is keeping an eye on things. :)

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Deep River Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 1,113 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Deep River Center. 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 Deep River Center. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
