“Our cats immediately took to Basil, who clearly adores animals and took fantastic care of our pets while we were out of town. They were communicative & also provided photos after every visit. Will happily rebook!”
“Felt like both our cat and house were in good hands. Got lots of pictures and updates and our kitty looked happy and comfortable. Wouldn’t hesitate to have Keira cat sit again!”
“I was very lucky to have found Robert when I did. He was a wonderful sitter and even my little spicy Miku seem to warm to him. She can be afraid of strangers, yet Robert was gentle and patient. Could not have asked for a better sitter.”
“Emily was great-- reliable, responsive, and took great care of my cat, Sputnik, while I was away for the holidays. She kept me updated with photos, which was a lovely touch. I will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“Livia took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town. She spent quality time with our kitty, making sure she got treat, love, and that all was well with her food, water, and litter box. Thanks so much, Livia!”
About: I’m a long-time pet sitter who took care of my neighbors’ dogs, cats, hermit crabs, birds, and fish growing up. As a child, I took attentive care of my hamster, betta fish, and snail and loved growing up with cats. In 2020, I fostered and then adopted my cat, Cruz, from the SPCA. We lived with two humans, two dogs, and three rats. Cruz and I now live with my partner and her cat, Moo Moo, in Belmont. I regularly commute through Rio Road and can easily spend time with your pets on my way to and from my part-time job at the library. I live in Belmont and regularly commute through town and Rio Road. I work part-time, allowing me to spend time getting to know your pets during visits. I notice and respect the boundaries that nervous cats and dogs lay out. The patient and calm energy I bring minimizes stress to anxious animals.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve had big and small dogs. I currently have two small Morkies, Pickle and Penny. Pickle requires a special diet and pills to be given daily. Penny loves to be close and cuddle. My parents dogs is a black lab who over the past few years I’ve helped take care of. She has Addison disease and requires medication daily. She also needs a special routine to help keep her from getting overwhelmed. I’ve also had cats throughout my whole life and frequently had to give medications to my last cat Tilly. I really am looking forward to an opportunity to help be involved in your pets life. Whether it’s for a short walk, a play in the park, or just cuddles. I can’t have cats or other dogs because my wife is allergic to them. I’ve recently moved away from my family and looking to be able to still be able help other animals. That’s why I know getting on Rover is a great choice for me!! A little about me is I have been a nurse for ten years, and currently am a charge nurse. I love caring and helping people but I also love caring for animals. My schedule is different every week but I am able to visit anytime I am off. I have two dogs of my own at home. We have a dog park in the neighborhood that is fenced. I am able to be flexible with your animal needs. I can walk and play or just hang out with them. I can crate them before I leave, or give medications. I am overall very flexible and willing to meet your animals needs!
About: My family had labradors from the time I was an infant. All of ours were raised as puppies, well behaved and successfully potty trained. I also had a French bulldog raised from a puppy as an adult. In recent years I have learned love cats through my wife, and we now have 4 lovely adult indoor cats who we rescued all as kittens. I work from home 9-5 Monday through Friday. I can be flexible for mid-day visits, although mornings and afternoons/evenings are more reliable. I am generally available at all times of day on weekends. I have my own transportation and I’m happy to accommodate your needs. My own pets mean the world to me, I strive to be the person they see me as. I treat all animals the same way: with kindness, respect, and love, especially for rescues who may not have had the easiest lives. I have a white collar job where I’m expected to have high professionalism and customer service standards, and I bring that ethos to my work with animals as well.
About: New to Rover, but experienced 5-star house sitters on TrustedHousesitters. My husband Mikhail and I are a married couple based in Charlottesville. I teach high school math online, and Mikhail holds a PhD in Materials Science. We have flexible schedules and spend much of our time at home, which means pets in our care receive plenty of companionship, attention, and consistency throughout the day. Over the past year, we have completed successful house sits in multiple cities, caring for both cats and dogs while homeowners traveled. We have received wonderful reviews for our reliability, communication, and the care we provide to pets and homes. We are happy to share screenshots of our TrustedHousesitters reviews and references. One thing previous hosts often mention is how much attention we give their pets. We genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s a cat who wants to sit on a lap all afternoon, a playful kitten who wants constant company, or a dog who loves walks and outdoor adventures, we adapt to their needs. We also understand that owners miss their pets while traveling. That’s why we provide regular updates and photos so you can relax and enjoy your trip knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. We treat every home with the same care and respect we would want for our own, and our goal is simple: to make your time away completely worry-free. I teach high school math online and currently have a very flexible schedule, especially during the summer. My husband, Mikhail, is currently focusing on pet sitting full-time. Because of this, there is almost always someone at home to provide companionship, attention, walks, potty breaks, and care throughout the day. We are able to easily accommodate feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication schedules, and other pet-specific needs. Pets in our care are rarely left alone for extended periods of time. For house sitting, we believe pets are happiest when they can stay in their own home and maintain their normal routine. We take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, preferences, and personality so we can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. We follow feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication routines, and any special instructions provided by the owner. We spend a lot of time at home, so pets receive plenty of companionship, attention, and supervision throughout the day. We also understand how important communication is while you’re away. We provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pets are doing and enjoy your trip with peace of mind. In addition to caring for pets, we treat every home with respect and care, keeping it clean, secure, and well maintained while its owners are away.
About: I grew up on a farm, I am familiar with caring for anything from a lizard to a horse. I have been a trusted pet sitter and walker for a few families for years. I have volunteered at vet clinics since I was in high school and am versed in dog CPR and have a background in dog training. I truly love all animals they have my heart and utmost care always. Any animal in my care will be left in luxury. As a pet owner myself I understand the need to know your loved one is left in good hands. I am flexible, so please feel free to reach out with any questions! I am a personal trainer in the Charlottesville area and have a flexible schedule. This is perfect for allowing me to take breaks even throughout a normal work day to take ample care of your fur babies. It is your fur baby so I will follow whatever routine you guys have set for your household. My goal is to make them feel like they are on vacation too!

About: Hi! My name is Kylie, and I’m an animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I currently have one cat, Nova, who keeps me company, but I grew up surrounded by animals, including cats & dogs. My professional experience includes working for 5 years as a kennel technician at a boarding kennel in Culpeper, where I cared for a wide variety of dog breeds, personalities, and energy levels. During my time there, I gained valuable experience with feeding, exercise, cleaning, monitoring pets’ health and behavior, and administering medications to dogs who needed them. I understand that every dog is different, and I strive to provide care that fits each pet’s individual needs and personality. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, companionship, or simply a little extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your pets are family, and I treat them that way! I look forward to getting to know you and your furry friends. 🐾 I’m available anytime for drop-in visits to care for your pets, ensuring they receive the attention and love they need while you’re away. I appreciate your interest, but I currently do not provide pet care in my home. I focus on drop-in pet sitting for your furry friends.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Eastham
Carolyn was absolutely fantastic. Not only did she take excellent care of our kitties during the original planned sit while we were on vacation, but agreed to extend the sit twice when our travel plans unexpectedly changed and we were stranded away from home for an additional 5 days. She was quick to respond to all of my anxious cat-mom questions about how my boys were doing, sent great pictures at every visit, and took care of our boys like they were her own. We were so incredibly grateful to have booked with her during this trip, and it meant the world to have one piece of our unexpected travel delays be taken care of.
Keira did a great job dropping by to check in on my two cats. She went above and beyond the care instructions to get eyes on Max, who hides from strangers, and by turning on the fans when there was a early heat wave. I live in an older building that hadn't changed over to AC yet, and she made sure to let me know what was going on and the steps she took alleviate the heat the best she could. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 346 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Eastham. 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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
