“Megan did a great job checking in on our pups! She was very communicative and prompt with her responses. We got many photos and videos that were nice to see while we were away. We will definitely be reaching out again!”
About: Anyone else really wish they could pick up every stray animal? Yeah, me too.🤦♀️🤷♀️ Hi there, I'm Ariel. Lover of All Animals (minus snakes), Lint Roller Carrier, and Treat Giver. I used to do Rover around my job but I recently became a stay at home mom so I’m available most whenever to see the fur babies. Respecting pets starts with respecting owners. How do you prefer your pet cared for? Do they have any special needs? Please let me know so we can make this the best experience for your family.
“Used Taylor last minute for a quick Houston trip. She checked on our dogs three times for us. On time each time and the dogs looked like they were having fun in every picture we got. One of my dogs got sick in his crate and on our carpet when we were gone and she cleaned it up and stayed longer to finish the cleaning. I was mortified she had to do it but she was so understanding that things happen. We can appreciate her enough for taking care of our dogs last minute. Will 100% use her again. Thank you so much again.”
About: Hi! My name is Hannah. I’ve been around animals my entire life. You know those funny people who go to a party and find the pet as soon as they can? Yup! That’s me! Currently I have the sweetest standard poodle named Ranger and the most loving Pittie/Rottie mix named Ozo. I have two cats as well. One is my old lady named Midnight (Midi) and the other is a terror of a cuddle bug named Squeak. I’d love to be able to help and assist with your own animals. I’m able to walk, check-in, give pills, and a list of other things to make your and your fur-babies life a little easier. I am lucky enough to have a very flexible job so I can pop in and out as needed to be there for your fur-baby. Currently I would have to check in and take care of your fur-babies from your home. Hopefully in the future I hope to be able to have them stay with me.
“Kate did everything we asked of her! Our cat, Miller, was having allergy issues and she was ready to administer nose drops if he was having a flare up. Our cats loved her stopping by. I would highly recommend to anyone who needs a sitter in the future!”
About: I have been a pet owner ever since a was a small child. I have always been around animals and cared for them as if they were my own. My parents have had a pet boarding kennel for 8 years and I’ve always helped take care of the pets that we babysat. I have a beautiful German shepherd of my own and is well trained and vary friendly I am a 23 year old stay at home mom of a 2 year old. I have free time all day and will be vary flexible with timing I have a fenced in back yard and lots of time to give your fur baby the loving they will need while you are gone.
About: I've been pet sitting since college and have cared for dogs with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs. As a medical student, I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pet while you're away. I have an AKC Canine Good Citizen certified dog who is truly part of my family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. While I'm not an AKC-certified trainer, I have experience with obedience training and recently fostered and trained a dog from the ground up, helping them build confidence and good manners before finding their forever home. Although I'm not a veterinarian, my medical training has made me comfortable following medication schedules, recognizing when something seems off, and paying close attention to details. I know how important it is to notice changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or mobility, and I'll always communicate any concerns promptly. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having someone to cuddle with, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away. I am currently on clinical rotations so my schedule changes every 4 weeks. This is something I want to fit in when I have time because pets deserve the world. I will say I’m available unless I can provide your pet my full attention. I have a friendly dog at home who is comfortable with large and small dogs. He is very social. Although I don’t currently have my own yard my appartment had a beautiful dog park! My dog and I go on two walks a day rain or shine. If it’s summer and we go later than 8am I have him wear boots to protect him from hot pavement. I like to practice training with him and taking him to the dog park.
About: I have raised dogs all my life. Currently my family has a large home on 5 acres. We have two, large dogs, a cat, and chickens. I am available for drop ins and boarding. I am available for feeding and/or caring for farm animals as well! I also have experience with rabbits, ferrets, and bearded dragons. If needed I can give shots and oral medication as I do have experience with this as well. I hope to see you and your pet soon! My husband and I both currently work full-time, both of us are home by 5 pm each day. My day schedule is flexible and allows me time to do drop ins when needed. When home we spend a lot of time outside. We do not have a fenced in yard, but have no problem with walking on a leash if needed. We live on 5 acres of land that allows plenty of room to run and play. If needed I can crate your pet as needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 37 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across DeRidder. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
