About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and stay overnight with their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with specific routines or medication needs. I understand how important consistency and patience are, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available most weekdays after 2pm and have open availability on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or house sitting. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to work with your pet’s specific routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I do not have a fenced in yard but I can accommodate and make your pet comfortable at all times. I can crate your dog if needed and always supervise playtime. I follow feeding schedules carefully and will provide updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. In a client’s home, I respect your space and keep everything clean, secure, and just as you left it.

“I was honestly in a panic when I messaged Christine last minute because the sitter I had booked months in advance suddenly couldn’t watch my dogs anymore. Christine responded so quickly and completely saved the day! She truly is a star and took such great care of my babies. I didn’t even have time to do a meet and greet beforehand, and I still felt completely comfortable with her. She was amazing from start to finish. Thank you so, so much for saving me and my dogs! ❤️ I would absolutely book with her again!”

About: I have taken care of all different types of pets since I was young. I’m very comfortable administering medication to those who need it, playing with the young energetic animals, and being sensitive to older ones who may need extra care. I currently work full-time but I am one a hybrid schedule so I am home all day on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. I usually have things to do on the weekends but with enough notice I can certainly work around that. I have one 3 year old cat who is very friendly, quiet, and a bit of a cuddle bug. He is comfortable with other dogs and cats. I have a fenced in porch and a walkable safe neighborhood.

About: I have extensive experience caring for animals of all species, especially dogs and cats.Through both personal and hands-on experience, I have developed strong skills in animal handling, feeding, health monitoring, and maintaining clean, safe living environments. I have a genuine passion for animals and am committed to providing compassionate, reliable care that promotes their health, comfort, and well-being. Pet care is already a central part of my daily routine. As the owner of my own pet sitting business, I carefully organize and schedule my days around my clients' needs to ensure every pet receives reliable, consistent, and attentive care. I plan visits according to each pet's established routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication administration, litter box or enclosure maintenance, and companionship. Having spent years caring for and rescuing animals, I am accustomed to structuring my schedule around their well-being. My flexible routine allows me to provide dependable care while giving each pet the time, attention, and individualized support they deserve. I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owners are away. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care is always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, medical needs, and any special instructions provided by their owner. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I maintain a clean, calm, and secure environment and closely monitor pets for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. I understand that every animal is unique and deserves individualized care, patience, and attention. I follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and household rules exactly as requested. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident and reassured while they are away. As a lifelong animal caregiver with extensive experience caring for animals, I strive to build trust with both pets and their owners by treating every animal as if they were my own.

“I’ve never left my kitties behind when I travel and was quite worried about it. I’m VERY pleased with the job Jack did. Although my cats are super shy and wouldn’t be social and play, Jack sent a daily pick to reassure me they were fine. I’ll definitely rebook with Jack should I need to travel again.”

Sharon is a sweetheart. Unfortunately, she was never able to watch our three kitties because one of them got sick, but Sharon went out of her way to meet with us before the date to get to know us, and she kindly refunded us monies for the stay she was supposed to be here for. We will definitely be in touch with her in the future. She's a responsive, reliable, and kind person. Looking forward to her watching my babies.

Erica is an amazing person and a caring pet sitter. They helped take care of my two kitties fish and plants while I was away. During our meet and greet Erica was engaging and attentive when I was explaining the tasks I would like done. Erica went above and beyond. My kitty got a nervous stomach while I was away and Erica helped clean the mess so I wasn’t extra stressed when I got back. Skittles takes a long time to warm up to pet sitters but she didn’t hide this time and Erica made sure to feed her separately from her brother. Tiberius is happy Erica gave love and attention when we were gone as he gets extra lonely. Thank you again Erica. Best pet sitter I had on rover.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Delmar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Delmar is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 193 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Delmar. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
