Karina and Jared did a great job looking after my 2 cats while we were away. Jared did the drop in visits to feed, water and scoop. Karina was available for any questions I had and provided help with the Rover scheduling. They kept me up to date on the cat care and were great with communication. Thanks!

Amanda was great! She was consistent and made sure my cats had everything they needed. Including taking care of cleaning the cat bowls and picking up after one of them got sick. She gave good updates. Would use again and recommend to others.

This is the first time we used Heather to take care of our 13 1/2 year old goldendoodle, Mollie. She was awesome and Mollie loved her. Heather was quick to respond to our text and also sent pictures of her visit with our pup. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her.

Adriana was WONDERFUL. I was nervous leaving four shy cats and a 14 year old dog for three days, but she put my mind at ease by being on time, sending informative rover cards, and providing great care (even to the one cat who’s SO shy she never even saw him.) You’ve got to be good to care for an invisible cat but she did it!

Ashley was an excellent sitter and visited our 3 cats, at our home, over Christmas! Excellent communicator and took great care of our pets (including one with special dietary needs). Our house is in the same condition as we left it and our cats are stressed free and happy. Thank you for taking such good care of them and taking time to play and send photos!

We were very pleased to have Erin look after our cats while we were on vacation. She took excellent care of our kitties and was very reliable and caring. The regular updates and photos from her drop in visits were reassuring and very much appreciated. We will be rebooking with Erin in the future!

From the moment I met Lee I knew that my dogs would be in good hands. He was sending me photos of my dogs every time he went to visit them so I wasn't worried about them at any time. When I returned from my vacation I found my home clean and my dogs well taken care of!! I will definitely hire Lee's services again.

About: I've taken care of pets of several species as well as several different dog breeds since I was a kid. I run, hike, and trail run with my dogs. I've had cats and dogs through every life stage from puppy/kitten through senior. I've raised 2 high energy puppies in the last several years and train with them a lot. I have given medications to my dogs as well as friends dogs. I would love to make your pet happy and provide for their specific needs! I currently have an open schedule after I complete my own pet care in the mornings (and evenings). I can do drop-ins for potty breaks, play, and pets. I can do regular walks or hikes. I can do a quick drop in for a midday potty break and some play or go out for a walk or hike as well. *For boarding, I have 2 dogs (1yo and 6yo) and 1 cat. For safety, my puppy is crated during alone time and guest dogs are introduced gradually and separated in their own area when unsupervised. Boarding for cats will not require introductions as they will have their own space.

Tara and her cat-whisperer of a daughter did a wonderful job checking on our cat this weekend. She checked in exactly when we needed her to, and kept us updated the entire time we were away. We’re so grateful to her for making our weekend away that much more enjoyable because we had peace of mind our cat was cared for. Highly recommend Tara for your pet-sitting needs.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - East Hartland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 974 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across East Hartland. 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 East Hartland. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
