About: I’ve owned pets my whole life, I have experience with dogs, cats, and even experience with some exotic pets as well!! I currently own 2 guinea pigs of my own. I’m currently working a part time job however that doesn’t stop me from being able to provide for you and your pets! Feel free to reach out so I can give you my schedule. I know that everyone has different rules/regulations for how they want their pets handled in their home, so I’m always happy to take the time to meet with or speak to you about boundaries for you and your fur babies!

“Catelyn was very conscientious. She admitted that she was new to sitting for cats, mostly has taken care of dogs, but my cats got on with her well. One is 20 and basically sleeps. Catelyn had her playing with a felt ball. The other is usually very shy and gets snarky with strangers, but Catelyn got her to play as well. She contacted me if she had concerns. She sent pictures frequently. She offered extra assistance if needed. The house was clean when we returned home. Overall a good experience and I would recommend her.”

About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life! I love them both equally and don’t have a favorite I promise!! I always treat my animals as if they are family, because they are!! My cousin is a professional dog trainer who now works in Boston so I have acquired a lot of knowledge from her over the years! It would be a pleasure to take care of your four-legged friends for you!! I am currently a full time medical assistant student. I go to school in Canton Monday-Friday until 2pm with a one hour break at 12 for lunch. My availability is wide open on the weekends. My dog gets nothing but the best when it comes to food, treats, and toys. She is spoiled rotten with more than she could ever dream of. She has an egg allergy so I am very aware of the caution needed when an animal cannot have a certain food item. The same goes for my little kitten miss Wednesday who gets the best of the best and is spoiled rotten.

About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m caring, patient, responsible, and will treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and get plenty of attention while in my care. I currently work as an automotive technician in Braintree MA. I work from 7-5 most days, with a lunch break at 12:30. I am more than happy to provide service on my lunch breaks as well! I am off Wednesday and Sunday every week, along with some holidays off. I am able to house sit any day of the week, and able to walk, or care for three times a day on work days and all day on days I don’t. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight house sitting, and boarding. Having cared for four cats and two dogs of my own and through family pets, I’ve developed a genuine love for animals and their unique personalities. I’ve also occasionally pet-sat for family, and I always go the extra mile to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I believe every animal deserves patience, affection, and personalized attention, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving plenty of love, attention, and the best possible care while they’re away. I do also have my own floor in my apartment that I can have pets in!

About: I have been around dogs and other pets my whole life! I grew up with Rottweilers and my family currently has Bernese mountain dogs and boxers so I understand the energy that fuels these big babies. I have experience with cats along with other animals ranging from farm to reptile. I have changed dog diapers, administered medications, and have provided care from puppy to senior. My current life does not allow for a dog and I just have a lot of love to give! I’m a teacher on summer break who also does not have much of a social life. I am very flexible currently and can fit with your schedule! I’m comfortable with what you are comfortable with! I have administered meds, changed dog diapers, and understand the importance of a watchful eye (my family dog will eat poop if she could).

About: I have 1-2 years of experience of caring for dogs and pets throughout college! I have specifically cared for medium to large sized puppies and seniors! I am great at dealing with energetic dogs who love to play as well as chiller dogs who love to lounge. I am currently a full time graduate student at Boston University, but I am largely available on weekends and nights! I can house sit on Friday and Saturday nights, and can go on walks everyday at night! My apartment building has its own fenced dog park with room to run and play. I can bring my own pee pads, treats, and toys!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting regularly for the past four years for three wonderful families! I have experience from energetic labs to mellow mixed-breeds dogs and cats! I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, administering basic routines, and giving lots of love and attention! As someone who loves being outdoors, I enjoy long walks and making sure dogs get plenty of movement and adventure. I know every pet has a unique personality, and I strive to get to know their quirks to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos (as much or as little as you prefer) so you can have peace of mind but also know your pet is in good hands. 😇 I'm currently working as a server, so my schedule can be very flexible and I can typically request time off to make time for your pets! I can care for your pet in your home! I feel this is most comfortable for pets as opposed to getting to know a new person and environment simultaneously.

About: I volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am great with both dogs and cats. I grew up with my cat, Hepsiba, born before me who died when I was nearly 20 years of age. We were best friends before I knew what that was. Then at the age of 12 or so, my parents adopted 2 English cocker spaniels, brother and sister. Robbie and Flora. So I was taking care of three pets. Then I raised Bruce, a rescued black lab mix from August 2013 until 2025 with some breaks for the US Army. And I taught him very well; he passed in June 2025 but he will always be my companion at my side. For some time I carried him, 120 lbs, up and down flights of stairs. Sometimes from here to there, carefully, comfortably, gingerly. I have a background in psychology, and I’m a dog trainer and a bit of a behaviorist. I’ve taken care of pets for family members and friends. And did so professionally in the past prior to Rover, after friends got me into it, which I started in August 2025. I’m great with animals. After spending even just a short time with them we can often establish a connection or rapport, especially when training a younger pet (or caring for an older dog). I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, I could run with your dog, play with them, but mostly we’ll be doing what they want - within reason. I will basically be spending the entire time with your pets. We’ll wake up between five to eight in the morning, and we’ll go bed between eight and eleven at night. I’ll be up with them as they need and we’ll be in and out much more than is required. I am delicate and meticulous and believe in leaving no trace that I was there. I want my client after their time away from home and their animals to not be met with the mess that I could be leaving behind. I am committed to performing an act of cleaning based on the tools available.

“Mindy was amazing, she kept our cat, Willow for several days while we were out of town. Mindy kept me well updated with lots of pictures and information throughout. She eased my anxiety at being away and made everything so easy. She was a joy to work with and super understanding of needs. She went above and beyond to make me and Willow comfortable — I would highly recommend her and will absolutely use her services again!”

“I would give 10 stars if I could. I went on a two week vacation and very anxious about leaving my two Maine Coons for such a long time. We had JB house sit and she not only took care of the cats but my many plants as well. I am so relieved to have her as a trusted care giver for my fur babies!”

About: I’m an extremely empathic, detail-oriented, very patient and fun-loving human who really loves creating connections with people and animals. My spirit animal is a lion! I have a flexible schedule. I’m currently pursuing my real estate license, so I make my own schedule for the most part and can work around you. I am unable to care for pets in my home, as my family members are allergic; however, I am happy to assist with drop-in visits, walks, or pet-sitting in your home.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years, and what sets me apart is my hands-on experience and personal dedication. I successfully trained my own dog from 4 months old to ring a bell when he needed to go potty, bark to communicate when he needed to go outside, and follow basic commands like sit and wait. I’ve also cared for senior pets and have experience adding medication to food for both dogs and cats. I genuinely love connecting with animals and take pride in providing calm, consistent, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day—whether that’s for walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and cared for. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean environment with a spacious, secure yard where they can play and relax. When caring for pets in apartments or condos in Boston, I’ve had great experiences following each pet’s routine closely, ensuring they feel comfortable and safe. I always prioritize cleanliness, clear communication with pet parents, and a calm, respectful approach in any space I enter.

Lea is awesome. Dependable and communicative. She was excellent with our cat during a long holiday break and we’ll certainly be rebooking with her in the future. Thanks Lea!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Duxbury

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Duxbury is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $26 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 608 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Duxbury. 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 Duxbury. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 89% 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.
