“She was great in keeping Pumpkin fed and was able to accommodate some extra stays when we had a delay in flights, which we really appreciated! Shelley is very nice and attentive, with good communication as well.”
About: For over 15 years, I have provided comprehensive, high-quality care for both dogs and cats. My experience ranges from high-energy playtime to specialized senior care and positive reinforcement training. I pride myself on creating a safe, structured, and joyful environment for every pet. What I Offer- Medical & Senior Care: Confident in administering oral medications and skin topicals, as well as managing specialized routines for aging pets. Positive Training: Skilled in teaching basic manners, tricks, and reinforcing good behavior using force-free methods. Play & Enrichment: Expert at reading animal body language to deliver the perfect balance of physical exercise and mental stimulation. Feline Expertise: Experienced in managing cat behavior, specialized diets, and giving space to timid or anxious felines. Whether your pet needs basic puppy training, gentle elder care, or just a fun day of structured play, I adapt my approach to their unique personality. Because my work schedule varies week-to-week, I am highly adaptable and can often accommodate non-traditional times, last-minute requests, and mid-day visits that standard 9-to-5 sitters cannot. I manage my calendar tightly to ensure that when your pet is booked, they get my 100% undivided attention, medical care, and training focus. As a seasoned pet professional specializing in medical administration and behavioral training, I look at safety through a clinical and preventative lens. I do not just watch your pet; I actively monitor their health, behavior, and physical surroundings to prevent accidents before they happen. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing an expert is at the helm.
“Gina was so kind and considerate to not only my dog but me as well! I have a lot of anxiety surrounding pet sitters and having strangers in my home and around my baby but she made me and Bruno feel so comfortable! She took her time with him which really made a difference, he is not the type of dog to immediately trust someone so i needed someone willing to go slow. I will definitely be contacting her for future use! I would recommend Gina to any pet parent!”
“Elizabeth was exceptional, she sent constant notes with what they did and sent adorable photos of my kitty after every visit. She kept the place just as I left it and showed my pet constant love and I could tell from all the photos they were having a great time! Will 1000% rebook when the opportunity arises.”
“I hired Taryn for a drop-in midday to let out and play with our Goldendoodle. She was on-time, communicative, took lots of pictures, and very easy to deal with! Would highly recommend!!”
“Jocelyn took great care of our two dogs, dropping in during the day to check on them. She was very communicative, provided great photos during her visits, and was great with our needy dogs. We will be happily booking her for our future dog care needs!”

About: Drop In Availability: Morning: 6a-9a; Evening: 6p-10p Dog Walk Availability: Morning: 6a-9a; Evening: 6p-9p I grew up with two Mastiffs, so I understand the importance of structure, patience, and making pets feel loved. I truly thought of Brutus and Khan (my mastiffs) like my brothers. Brutus and Khan were afraid of the thunderstorms so I learned from a young age how to comfort them. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, a reptile and some farm animals. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet and animal’s personality. I’m comfortable administering medications, including pills, powders, and injections, and I always follow care instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent. As someone who works remotely, I’m reliable, communicative, and able to give your pet the time and attention they need. I treat every pet like they’re my own, creating a calm, loving environment so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I work remotely, which allows me to be flexible and present throughout the day. I’m able to schedule drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and check-ins around my work, so pets receive consistent attention. At home, I schedule myself around a “Pomodoro Method” and include 5-10 minutes of playtime with my cat when I need a break. When I’m caring for pets in your home, my goal is to make everything feel as normal and comforting as possible for them. I stick closely to their usual routine so they feel safe and at ease in their own home. I also treat your home with the same respect I would my own, keeping things clean and giving you regular updates. At home, I keep a calm, cozy environment for my own cat. I never use the “big light” and the TV is always kept on a quiet level for her. I will turn on the CatTV when I get busy with my work as well.
“Samantha was a hit with Mulder when they first met! I saw how he immediately accepted Samantha. It gave me peace of mind while we were away for an extended period of time. We have your number Samantha and we will call you again when needed. Thank you!”
“I so appreciate Lindsey and all the photos she gives. She’s taking such good care of the kitties and is very very responsible and kind and they seem to play with her a lot! Victoria bubbles and sweetie.”
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 13 and have over 6 years of hands-on experience with dogs, and cats. I've worked n the veterinary field for the past 3 years, which has given me experience recognizing health concerns, following medication instructions, and handling animals safely and confidently. As an aspired veterinarian, I treat every animal with patience, compassion, and the same level of care I'd want for my own pets I’m a student with most of my classes online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine, whether that’s morning, midday, or evening visits. Because of my flexibility, I’m able to provide consistent care, spend quality time with pets, and adjust my schedule as needed to meet each pet’s specific needs. I provide care exclusively in my client’s home to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special care needs. I make it a priority to keep the home clean, secure, and exactly as I found it while giving pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times. I also provide regular updates, including messages and photos, so owners can feel confident and reassured while they’re away. My goal is to create an stress-free experience for both pets and their owners by being reliable, respectful, and attentive.
“Want to say a huge thank you to Victoria for the amazing care of Karma while we visit Orlando. She was super punctual, attentive and Karma loved her. Definitely recommend and will use her services again!”
“Jasmine was sweet with my cats and professional. My cats can be shy with new people, but it was clear from the pictures that my cats enjoyed their play time and getting to know Jasmine. We will book with Jasmine again on our next trip.”
“I always feel safer and less anxious going away knowing Lillian is able to watch my pets. She is so sweet and attentive she even got my newest furbaby who is very shy to come out of her shell. I'm so grateful to have found her.”
“Jonathan has been our go to dog sitter anytime we are out of town and always does an amazing job with Mia. We recommend him to anyone who will be away from their pups for an extended period of time.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Doctor Phillips
Taylor was always on time, provided excellent care to my cats. One has diabetes. So it requires an extra step. She was always communicating every visit how they pets where doing. She kept everything tidy and I can tell she loves doing this and takes great pride in her job. I will hire here every time I need help.
Lillian is THE BEST AND SHE GENUINELY CARES! I was out of town for a week, my girl had some issues and I was super worried to leave. I received great updates, and a call when there was some not normal circumstances. Lillian even offered to be “on call” if we needed more visits. Not really on call but you get it. She is so good with my cat and eased my anxiety while I was gone. She is my permanent Rover! Zero doubts with her!
Lauren is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She always takes amazing care of our three cats—Polly, Tithi, and Gordito—and I could tell they were happy and comfortable while we were away this time. She’s very reliable, kind, and clearly great with animals. Thanks Lauren!🐾
Lasharae has been great dropping in on Ferb. We had great communication and even though my requests were last minute, her responses were always fast in letting me know her availability. She also provided detailed information on how the visit went and photos as well. I definitely recommend her for looking after your pet(s).
Estoy muy agradecido con Usted por tan excelente servicio y por el cuidado de mi mascota. Volvería a dejarle mi gato. Al principio un poco de temor pero su responsabilidad y amor a las mascotas me ha demostrado que es profesional en el cuidado de mascotas. De mi parte al publico en general les recomiendo 100 por ciento a la Señora Anghi U para el cuidado, responsabilidad, seguridad de sus apreciadas mascotas. Gracias Anghi.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Doctor Phillips on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,406 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Doctor Phillips. 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 Doctor Phillips. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
