“Responded quickly, pleasant and did well with doggies (I have one large dog and one small), they took to her immediately and I was very happy about this.”
“Megan is an awesome person, so kind, professional and full of love for little furry friends. I’ll ask Megan for her service any time I have to let G home alone. I’m very strongly and heartfelt recommending Megan to take care of little four legs friends.”
“Lilla has been amazing with our dog and communication with me. Lloyd was having severe anxiety and Lilla communicated with me every step of the way, on his behavior, shyness, and even when he got a bit aggressive towards her. She comforted him and gave him the space and attention he needed as we devised a plan. I appreciated her openness, understanding and thoughtful approach to our dogs needs!”
“Alexandra was great for our stop-in visits with the catboys while we were out of the country. She communicated well and took great care of them. Will reach out to her again in the future when we are out of town.”
“Your fur baby will be well looked after of with Daniela. She is very caring, thoughtful and has excellent communication and follow through. My dog fell in love with her. I was able to go out of town and feel confident that my girl was in good hands!”
“Emma’s Great. My puppy Rosie warmed up to her right away, she sent pics and updates during her visit. I couldn’t be happier with choosing Emma to watch her:) 10/10 recommended”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind. I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether they’re energetic puppies or gentle seniors. I have experience with basic training for young pets, helping reinforce good habits, and I’m patient and compassionate with older animals who may need extra support or mobility assistance. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while giving owners peace of mind. I can work part time and spend as much time as needed with each pet. I love taking care of animals. Pet care is a part of my daily routine I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to accommodate different needs. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment. I follow their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks and any specific instructions. I also keep the home tidy, provide updates (Pictures), and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. At the end of the day I want each pet that I meet to have a loving care experience and feel relaxed and well cared for at all times.
“Camila is the best! Not only is she an amazing and thoughtful pet sitter, but she also takes the time to do extra things like grab packages and clean around pet areas!”
“Lindsay is awesome! On time and super communicative. Her comfortability with Kai and overall experience is very comforting and Kai loved her. Looking forward to booking again soon!”
“Carla is great! It didn't matter that we booked at the last minute, or that the weather was really lousy while we were out, she kept our kitties nice and happy day after day, and always on schedule ? This was also the first time I've hired a cat sitter, everything from booking till the last day of kitty sitting went smoothly. Would recommend!”
“Lucy took wonderful care of Oakley over a long weekend while I was away. She was attentive, punctual, and very sweet to my boy. Stop the search and book her for anything you need.”
“We really appreciate Zach being available and taking such good care of our three cats and our one foster cat! He navigated our house well and treated all the cats with tenderness. Thank you!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life, from taking in puppies to rescues, and there is nothing more important to me then providing them love. I am currently working part time, but can happily work my way around taking care of your dog. Mornings work best and afternoon on weekends. I will constantly take them on walks to get them some fresh air. Check up on their food and water. Provide any other services requested.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - East Riverdale
For the third year Sharmily made sure Kitkat was well taken care of while we went on vacation. We were gone for two weeks, when we returned, Kitkat was still the happy cat we left. Thanks a million Sharmily, could not have been possible without you. Have a great summer.
Erica watched our cat Kot for 2 weeks with daily home visits and she was fantastic. We got photo updates after every visit, and it was so clear she genuinely loves cats. Kot’s warmed up to Erica fast — we even got pictures of him playing! Erica got to our cat new toys that he loves! Litter, food, and water were always taken care of, and she kept our home tidy. Coming back to a calm, happy Kot made our trip so much easier. We’ll definitely ask Erica again next time we travel.
I can't recommend her enough! She took such wonderful care of my two cats while I was away. She was incredibly responsible, reliable, and attentive throughout the entire time. She also kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my cats, not just completing the job. When I came home, my cats were happy, healthy, and well taken care of. I truly appreciate all of her hard work and kindness. I would absolutely trust her with my cats again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!
We really appreciate Sarah being able to drop in on our cats with very short notice due to an emergency trip we had to take. Our kitties took to Sarah right away even though they have shied away from strangers before. I hope Sarah won't be a stranger to them for long because we will definitely request her as a sitter for any future trips we will take.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 8,227 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across East Riverdale. 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.

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.
