“Micaela was fabulous! Everything went smoothly and she was awesome with the photos and updates. I came home to a very clean apartment and I can tell she took great care of my kitty”
“Sydney is wonderful! I was worried about leaving our kitties and had not used Rover before. Thankfully Sydney was available on very short notice to care for our little ones and immediately put my mind at ease. She was so attentive to our kitties and her communication was excellent. Sydney regularly sent photos and updates which gave me peace of mind. We know our cats were well cared for and would absolutely recommend Sydney!! Thank you Sydney! Willie & Dolly say hi!”
“Selena is beloved by my older cat, Jeff. She caught all the details of his care routine and used great discretion of when to add in extra support as needed when she did drop-in visits with him over the holidays. Even when he had an upset stomach, she took care of him and the mess in a professional and compassionate way. I appreciate her kindness, level of detail in her care, and her thorough communication.”
“Colin was phenomenal at taking care of our pup! He left detailed notes that gave us great updates and peace of mind that our dog was well cared for. Colin took our dog out for a walk, even when not necessary, to give her extra attention and stimulation. We came back to one happy dog and safe home!”
“Andi took wonderful care of our elderly cat Rhubarb! We had to scramble to find a sitter who could meet his new twice a day oral medication. Andy was quick to respond, communicative, and reassured us through our first time experience on Rover. She and Rhubarb became fast friends, and we look forward to Andi cat sitting again for us in the future. Thanks Andi!”
About: Very similarly to my history with cats, I've never known a life without at least one pup in my life! Although I don't have my own dog at the moment because I have no space for pups to play, and I know they need to be able to get energy out, and an apartment isn't the best place for that, my Mom still has two dogs that I care for often. As she did with cats, my Mom bred Lhasa Apsos on several occasions, and of course, those doggies were nothing less than completely pampered(as they should be)! I've helped with everything from bathing dogs of all sizes, to walking dogs, to actually helping with delivering puppies! I've had so many breeds of dogs, each with their own personality! I've had Lhasa Apsos, Australian Shepards, Mastiffs, a Saint Bernard, Golden Retrievers, Labradoodles, Greyhounds, and more! My Mom currently has 2 Labradoodles, and I've watched/dog sat them on several occasions. I'd love to have the opportunity to get to know you and your pup(s), and help you in any way I can! If you're in need of a dogsitter, please feel free to reach out! Have a fabulous day! I don't have many times during the week where I'm not available! I will be busy on Thursday mornings until 11:30 for the next several weeks, but aside from that, I'm very flexible and can work with what you need for your schedule. I will be able to care for dogs in your home as you need me to. I can care for cats in my apartment if needed, and if you're comfortable with your cat(s) being around my kitties. No matter what, I will be able to come to you and your cat(s)/dogs(s) and help out!
“Tina was great! She took care of my cat while I was away. Tina offered to meet a few days prior which was great. Very professional and truly cares about your pet(s). She also sent plenty of pictures and detailed check-ins of all of her visits. Came back home to a happy cat! Highly recommended”
“Kay kept our cat well taken care of. She took care of us, too! I hadn't booked the number of days we were going to be away. When Kay realized this she let me know! I am very grateful she caught my mistake. Our cat was happy with food, water, and good attention when we returned home.”
“Rachel was great! She communicated well and was always on time. But most importantly, she took great care of my cats while I was out of town, and gave them a lot of love as welll! I got a text message for check-in and check-out with photos and notes from her everyday. This Rover system and Rachel's service reduced a lot of my stress/anxiety and I can't thank her enough. I would definitely use her service in the future again. Thank you Rachel!”
“Cailen has been a wonderful petsitter for my two cats, Frosty and Joey. She spent a half hour with them twice a day and sent descriptions and pictures at each visit. I was impressed by how she engaged the felines and how wonderful her descriptions and photos were. She also left the pet areas very clean. I highly recommend Cailen.”
“Beyond kind to both me and my kitty! Always on time, very attentive, and sent great updates and photos! Took the time to interact and play with my cat and always responded quick! Highly recommend!”
About: Hello! I offer in-home pet sitting and provide drop-in visits and dog walking services. I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals and love giving dogs and the attention, affection, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are extremely important to me, and I will always respect your routines, requests, and care instructions to ensure they feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. A little about me: I have a strong love for animals and have gained hands-on experience through various volunteer positions working with pets. I have volunteered with Animal Aid Inc., where I gained experience caring for both cats and dogs. In addition, I am currently studying to become a veterinary technician through the Penn Foster program, where I continue to expand my knowledge of animal health, behavior, and care. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, concerns, or thoughts about working with me. I will always do my best to respond promptly and provide compassionate, attentive, and reliable care for your beloved pet. My schedule is flexible, and I prioritize keeping pets on a consistent routine with regular walks, feeding times, and attention throughout the day. I’ll always communicate clearly about availability and send updates during each stay. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I try to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible by following feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any household rules you provide. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Here is an example of the important aspects I require in a care guide: 1. Feeding Schedule/Amount 2. Walking Schedule/Best Destinations and Best Walking Routes 3. Personality/Needs (Do they have dietary restrictions? Do they pull on the leash? Any important commands I should know?) 4. House Rules 5. Vet Info/Emergency Contact I look forward to working with you and your pet!
“Wow. Jade went above and beyond for my cat. I told Jade before she watched my cat, Sister, that I was nervous because she’s such an anxious cat and I didn’t want things to be too difficult. Fret not. I come home to see my cat out in the living room- basking in the sun, not a care in the world. She wasn’t hiding like she usually does when new people are around, no, she was purring and relaxed. When I went to pet Sister, I made a crazy discovery. Her nails? Trimmed. Her hair? Washed. Not only that, I had told Jade not to worry about the litter box since I wouldn’t be gone for long. And what did Jade do? She deep cleaned it. Deep cleaned my cat’s litter box just because. I mean come on. Talk about a cat sitter! I could not recommend this girl more. She’s thoughtful, she’s kind, she’s an animal whisperer. Just when you think things couldn’t be better, Jade says just wait. 5 stars and a happy cat waiting for Jade’s return.”
“Sierra was great about communication, updates, and providing photos of my cats. I appreciated the fact that she was accommodating with schedule shifts, and with keeping an eye on my older cat's food consumption. I would definitely book her again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Dunthorpe
I want to give Sydney the highest review possible--10 stars if I could! When we had the unfortunate experience of heading to the pet emergency room for our cat the night before we left on a major trip, she stepped up and gave us the peace of mind that Pandora was in the best hands possible. From rearranging her schedule to come twice a day to experimenting with finding the best way to administer her meds, we really appreciated her dedication to the task. Sydney is the best!
Sharon went above and beyond while pet sitting my dog and cat. My cat has some chronic conditions and I needed someone I could trust with his medications. Sharon took excellent care of them, communicated well, and left my house spotless. I highly recommend her!
Anna was absolutely wonderful with Toby! She came twice a day while we were away, fed him his wet food, and stayed for the full 30 minutes to keep him company. Toby meowed, and screamed at Anna pretty much the entire time. I can only assume he had many important things to tell her about the state of the household while we were gone. Despite Toby's extensive vocal complaints, Anna was incredibly patient, sweet, and attentive with him. Knowing she was spending actual time with him rather than just giving him food gave us so much peace of mind. Anna was reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about Toby. We came home to a happy, well cared for and still very opinionated cat. I would absolutely book Anna again and highly recommend her!
Hannah was able to help me out with a last minute request to feed and care for my two cats. She collected my mail and packages while I was gone, and took great care of my kitties. Her check-in photos were great, and I was able to relax during my trip knowing that she was minding the kitties while I was traveling. Thanks so much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Dunthorpe is $14 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $20 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 1,205 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dunthorpe. 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.

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.
