Caiti was exceptional. She was available last minute and communicated well. Caiti was punctual and kept me informed of everything. If there were any questions, she asked immediately and the resolution was always found quickly. For a first time user, I will definitely be utilizing Rover and Caiti again! Thank you!

About: Hi everyone! I am currently in higher education, looking to spend my time away taking care of furry friends in the neighborhood. I have experience with animals going back to my first job at 14, working as a pet bather for a groomer for about 3 years. This gave me a range from working with rowdy fun labs to small and fun chihuahuas. I am very active so taking your friend on long walks is perfect for me as well. I am also fine with any different dog breed or cats. Also, no allergies for me! I love all pets large or small, cat or dog, and thank you for trusting me with an important piece of your life. Please feel free to contact me with any more information or questions you may need! I am currently working in higher education, and have some flexibility in my scheduling! Message me anytime if you have specific dates in mind as I will always try and accommodate. I have my own puppy with a fenced in yard. But I am also an active runner and hiker and am able to go on long walks as needed with your pet. I will am very willing to do a meet and greet with you to make sure I can care for your furry family member as needed.

Erica was incredibly flexible, transparent, and a wonderful caretaker for our two cats. She made sure to play with them every visit and provide numerous photos of the cats during each visit. She even made sure one of our cats got the medication they needed twice a day. I would gladly ask Erica to take care of our little guys again.

About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds. I have a deep respect for all animals, including those that are shy or have special needs, and I'm committed to giving every animal the care they deserve. I'm available on most weekends and holidays. During the week I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule and occasionally I do have weekdays available, as well as most Fridays in June and July. I can also do late afternoon or evening drop ins during the week, but unfortunately Rover does not provide a way to block out specific times so most weekdays show up as unavailable - just message me and I'll let you know my schedule! When introducing myself I allow the animal to approach me first, I take things slow if they're shy or nervous. I'm familiar with dog and cat body language so I can recognize signs of stress. When walking dogs I'm always aware of my surroundings and will adjust the route if I need to.

About: Hi! I’ve lived with animals my whole life and now have a two year old cat and a one year old Australian Shepard we’re raising along side our 5 and 2 year old daughters! I have an extremely flexible schedule and would love to help out other local dog parents who need a hand when they can’t be around. I look forward to meeting you! I’m a nanny who currently works part time! My oldest goes to school and my youngest will be joining her in the fall. I’ve dog sat for friends and they’ve often come with me so even if they’re around and my husband isn’t, I could still be available. I love playing with our high energy dog and have trained her to do some pretty cool tricks. I definitely have a lot of patience for our animals as well. We stay pretty active and while we’re working on our fence we have a long lead in the back yard. I have a large playpen as well as a few crates if needed while having a dog in our home! Our dog loves all other animals and so do our kids so as long as yours is comfortable around other dogs and kiddos they’re welcome to come play!

Mollie is extremely responsible and communicative. We’ve had sitters for years, but she especially impressed me because she came to the meet and greet with her own questions and took notes to be sure she understood all about our dog, Cookie. She kept in touch before the drop in visit and worked through a problem with us right away. She earned my trust and we will call on her again for drop in and house-sitting needs!

About: For a year, I walked my neighbor's Cavalier King Charles spaniel while she was recovering from a hip injury, until she could walk better. She and her daughter greatly appreciated my help and have said to me that their dog Cooper has been so much happier ever since he met me. I am a college student that goes to school 5 days a week from 7am to 2 pm. I can do early morning walks before 7am since I am a morning person, and I can do walks or come over after class. I am free on most weekends. I am free most of the time in the summer from June to August. I cannot bring pets into my home since I have two cats that are not very pet-friendly. But I can do all the care you need me to do at your house.

About: I am an occupational therapy graduate student and an animal lover. I do not have a fur baby of my own at the moment due to my moving around, but whenever family or friends need someone to watch their pet, I am always the one they ask! For the summer, I am taking online courses with asynchronous work allowing for a flexible schedule. I work a respite care job on Tuesdays and Wednesdays; other than that, I am free. It is important to keep your pets as comfortable as possible. I am attentive to any special instructions regarding medication or diet. As an OT student, I have a lot of experience in caregiving and am patient. I also provide updates and photos to owners, so they know what their pets are up to!

About: I have years of experience taking care of my dog who is dog reactive, extremely energetic, occasionally resource guards, etc. I also have experienced going through professional training with said dog. I also have experience taking care of my senior medical needs cat. My schedule is very flexible. I have to give my own cat her medication each morning and night, however that is my only schedule perimeter. I am available most days of the week and weekend except for a select couple weekends this summer. My availability ends mid August. I care for the animals I am in charge of with acute attention. These pets are peoples loved ones, their furry children, and I don’t take that lightly. They deserve love, attention, engagement, and a safe environment for them to succeed in.

Katharine was great! She was very communicative throughout the entire time. It was my first time using rover and she made it very easy. If I ever need to use rover again, I will definitely be using Katharine again. She is very kind and detail oriented. I cannot say enough about how great she is.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Delmar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Delmar on Rover is $19.98 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 579 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Delmar. 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 Delmar. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
