About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 9+ years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets (plus family pets growing up). I recently lost my dog, and I’m turning that love into extra care for other people’s pets—so your dog, cat, or other companion will get genuine attention, patience, and affection while you’re away. My home is kept pet-safe and tidy (no accessible food, unsafe items, or fragile objects within reach), and I take supervision seriously. I’ll follow your routine closely—feeding instructions, potty/litter schedule, leash rules, medication directions if applicable, and any home preferences—so your pet feels comfortable and secure. I’m happy to care for dogs of all sizes, cats, and other small pets, and I can accommodate special diets or needs as long as you provide the supplies and clear instructions. Expect regular updates and photos, and feel free to share anything that helps me make your pet feel right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I keep my schedule flexible and plan my day around consistent check-ins, walks, playtime, and feeding. I’m available most evenings and weekends, and I prioritize clear communication, punctuality, and sticking closely to your pet’s usual routine. Safety is my top priority. I keep a calm, pet-proofed home (no accessible food, unsafe items, or breakables) and I closely follow your instructions for feeding, walks, litter care, medications, and any special needs. I supervise carefully, respect each pet’s comfort level, and provide a clean, low-stress environment with plenty of attention and updates.
About: I am a fun and trustworthy pet caregiver and would love to help you with all of your pet care needs. I am comfortable walking dogs, feeding, bathing, and playing. Is this your first time using Rover? Ask me about how to get $20 off your first stay! For cat care I offer drop in visits to your home and do not currently board cats. But in your home I am happy to care for them and will meet them were their at! If they need distance I'll be respectful of that, if they want cuddles, I'm all about it. I am comfortable feeding and changing litter. I bathe dogs by request. Let me know if you would like this service. I am home all day. There will always be someone with them. I have experience with older pups, pups with separation anxiety, and health issues. Please reach out for questions about your dogs unique needs. I have a medium/large sized fenced in yard and no other pets of my own. In my home I will provide loving care including playing, walking, feeding, and bathing as needed. I will take your dog on two walks a day as a minimum, and take them out for potty breaks several times per day in the back yard where they are able to also run and play. During the day dogs in my care tend to like to sit by me at my desk, or on the couch near my desk. I live in the subdivision of Bay Lakes, which is right by "restaurant row" on Sand Lake rd. I am 10 minutes from Universal/Islands of Adventure, 15 minutes from Sea World, 15 minutes from Disney Springs, and 20 minutes from Magic Kingdom. I'm home all day so I'll have plenty of time to care for your loved ones! We'll go on walks and play in the yard. I have a medium sized fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run around and play in. Dogs are permitted to go outside any time they like, and I take them out every 2 hours for potty breaks. When we're inside and I'm on my computer they often like to lay next to me. :D When caring for dogs at my home, I maintain a structured schedule to ensure their well-being and happiness. Each day typically includes designated times for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. Additionally, I adhere to consistent meal times to regulate their digestion and provide ample opportunities for exercise and mental stimulation. Furthermore, I establish a bedtime routine to promote relaxation and ensure they get enough rest. This structured approach helps maintain their routine and provides a sense of security during their stay. In both my home and my client's home, prioritizing safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for pets is paramount. Here's how I ensure optimal care: 1. Safety Measures: I conduct a thorough pet-proofing of the space, removing any potential hazards such as toxic plants, small objects, or electrical cords. Secure gates and barriers are utilized to prevent access to off-limits areas. Additionally, I keep cleaning supplies and medications stored securely out of reach. 2. Trust Building: I establish a bond with the pets through positive reinforcement, patience, and consistency. Spending quality time with them, engaging in play, and offering treats help foster trust and a sense of security. Following the owner's instructions and routines also reinforces trust between all parties involved. 3. Comfortable Environment: I create a cozy and familiar setting for the pets by providing comfortable bedding, favorite toys, and maintaining a consistent daily routine. I ensure they have access to fresh water, proper ventilation, and suitable temperature conditions. Additionally, I offer plenty of opportunities for exercise, mental stimulation, and relaxation to keep them content and happy. By prioritizing safety, trust, and a comfortable environment, I aim to provide the best possible care for pets in both my home and my client's home.
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! I had a last minute request and needed help getting my dog home from daycare. She was so responsive and amazing to work with. She took great care of my pup getting her all settled in and included plenty of photos! Made my busy day so much smoother and lighter. Will definitely work with her again”

I felt so much better leaving for a long trip knowing I was leaving my cat in great hands with Lindsay! From the meet & greet, Lindsay was very communicative and on time. She kept me informed while I was away and made sure to always send photos. She made it a point to not only check on my cat's food and litter but also spend time giving her love and playing with her each day. I would definitely recommend Lindsay for your pet sitting needs!
Megan is a ROCKSTAR!! I can’t emphasize enough how detailed, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and caring she is. We get extensive notes and lots of beautiful pics of our babies every day. She really understands cat care and their special little personalities and challenges. This is the second time she’s watched our little crew, and we feel so confident leaving them under her care…one less thing to worry about while traveling. 🩷 Trust me, book her!!
Lillian was AMAZING! Caring, sweet, kind and obviously loves animals. She came to visit us even before booking to make sure it was a good fit and discuss how to take care of my cat. Great updates, speedy replies and some really cute pictures. This was the first time I left my cat alone and Lillian really helped ease my anxiety of this. Already looking toward my next trip and booking Lillian again. Thank You!
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).
My niece used to watch my cat and she’s moving away so I had to find a sitter for her and I was very anxious about it. Sarah came over and did a meet and greet, was very kind and my cat didn’t run and hide from her which was a great sign. She too great care of my cat and sent pics and kept me updated. It was huge relief! I would recommend Sarah and use her again!
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.
When we had to leave town unexpectedly due to a family loss, Elizabeth stepped in to care for our cat, Inka, just as she did during our previous vacation. She took great care of her with the same love and attention. Updates kept us at ease, and her reliable, compassionate care makes her our go-to pet sitter!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Doctor Phillips on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 2,368 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:

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.
