Heidi was great and kept me informed (including photos) every day. She was punctual and spent time with my dog each time she visited. I know Pepper was in good hands. Highly recommend!

Taylor is prompt, professional, and very good with dogs! She clearly has experience dealing with dogs and was able to adapt to some changing conditions we had. My dogs loved her and got all the exercise they needed when she stopped by. I will definitely use Taylor again!

About: I’ve cared for pets from all walks of life, including small and large dog breeds, cats, and even specialty pets such as bearded dragons and fish. No matter what kind of companion you have, your family member will be in caring and capable hands with me. I also have several years of experience caring for high-maintenance, special-needs, and senior pets, so I understand the extra attention, patience, and individualized care they may require. Having worked in healthcare for several years as well, I recognize the trust involved in entrusting a loved one to someone new and take that responsibility seriously. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me! Please feel free to message me if you’re interested in booking or have any questions—I’d love to see if I’d be a good fit for you and your pet. I work full time during the week, but I am available most days after 4/5pm. I am usually open most weekends without time constraints I regularly rotate walks and runs with my own large, high-energy pups to help keep them active and happy. They eat twice a day and enjoy a mixed diet. My cats require a little less hands-on attention, but they can be higher maintenance due to their asthma and picky eating habits. While this is how I care for my own furry family, I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m always happy to adjust to your pet’s individual needs, routine, and preferences

Aury was so flexible with our Pepper. Originally booked for 3 days drop in visit, but due to our flight cancellations, we had to extend 2 extra days. Aury went above and beyond to make sure Pepper was fed and got his medicine, and the ease of adding extra days made me feel a lot better about not being home in time. Will definitely be using Aury again for our next vacation.

Doug was great with Rose and sensitive to her needs especially during the rain storms over the weekend. Rose is scared of the rain and he took extra care with her. He communicated well with us on each visit. Highly recommend Doug.

This is the first time that Jessica has taken care of my cat. I am so pleased with the care she gave him and I am ready to rebook for my next trip. Jessica showed up as I requested, spent time with my cat, sent me pictures and notes on the visit, then locked up when she left. I’m so happy I chose Jessica for my cat care.

Brianna took care of my cats while my fiancée and I were out of town. It’s a bit difficult to find sitters that can administer oral medicine to cats, and Brianna was able to meet the task, give love to my 2 cats and make sure their area was well kept. She responds quickly to texts as well. If you need a cat sitter, I would recommend her to any client!

About: hello! my name is charlize i’m 22 i’ve grown up with animals my whole life and now i currently work at an animal hospital helping taking care of the dogs and cats that come in to see the vet. i’m very experienced with animals and taking care of animals and i love all different kinds of animals. i’ve worked at the animal hospital now for two and a half years and its been the most amazing two and a half years of my life. i am also going to school to practice becoming a veterinarian so i am really excited to meet all new furry friends for more experience. i am good with administering medication, i am good with dealing with aggressive dogs, i am good with any diabetic cat or dog with dosing insulin. you name it and i can do it!! i work part time hours at the animal hospital during the summer months and full time during fall and winter but i am extremely flexible, as i work on my terms and conditions. i am willing to fit last minute accommodation if it works with my personal schedule but i can also take time out of my day if needed to walk a dog etc. i unfortunately cannot have pets in my building but i am more than willing and able to go to anyone else’s beloved home to pet sit, or walk, or feed animals. i come in with a soft expression and wait for the animals to get used to me and my scent and then i wait for their approval to come further in their home/space. i am very careful to not touch them when they don’t want to be touched and i am always patient with animals especially if they’re new to my route.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Deer Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Deer Park on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,362 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Deer Park. 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 Deer Park. On Rover:

  • 91% 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.
