“Thanks, Felicia for taking care of Pita! She really loves you and feel happy and comfortable with you. Definitely I'll book further services with you. Kind regards and have a nice evening. Miguel Garcia”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and grew up volunteering in shelters and working at a kennel. I am completely comfortable around both cats and dogs, and I occasionally foster both through my local shelter while they wait for their forever homes. I’m experienced and certified in basic dog training for puppies. I am able to administer dog CPR and basic first aid in case of emergency. I’d be happy and proud to take care of your pet(s) for you. I am extremely flexible, and able to work with most schedules. I can do set schedules as well as one-time as needed schedules. Willing to work with my clients for whatever fits their needs. I am located very close to two pet friendly parks, and an extremely walkable neighborhood that has ample amounts of sidewalks. I love hanging out high energy animals that need a lot of play time as well as just relaxing on the couch with more low key pets!
“Kelly has been the absolute best petsitter we've ever had through Rover. She'll be the first person I check for availability for future needs. She was personable and caring, while also very professional. She sent pics and an update every day, and went above and beyond with some unexpected needs. My pets took to her too, which is the ultimate stamp of approval! This is the most at ease I've felt about the care of my fur-babies while I've been away. So glad we lucked out booking Kelly!”
“Serenity was simply outstanding! She took our dogs on long walks and played with them well! I could tell from the pictures she took that our dogs loved her! Many thanks to Serenity!”
About: There have been a couple puppies that I have house broken as well as more dogs that I have taught other tricks such as sit and shake. I have also taught dogs to not pull on their leashes while on walks I currently have a very loose part-time schedule and can very easily be flexible. Mostly Mondays and Fridays are the only days that I will not be available I have two cats as well as one dog that is fully crate trained. We have a fenced in back yard and the cats are fully indoor cats
About: I have always loved taking care of animals and playing with them. I have always taken care of family friend's pets while they were away and would love to do this for other people through this. I love to make sure new pets I take care of feel as comfortable as possible with me. You won’t ever have to worry about your furry family with me I work during the day but am always home by the latest 4 but usually 2:30. I will always work around your animals and make them my absolute priority while taking care of them. I am super flexible so we can always work together to figure out the best schedule that works best for you and your animals. I have pets of my own so I understand potential dangers to them. When I watch your pets I will treat them like my own and care for them how I would like my pets to be cared for. They will be my priority and I will try to make them feel as safe and comfortable with me as possible.

I will ensure your animals are safe and feeling comfortable when in my care! If they need a leash, I will use a leash, if there’s a yard then I will still make sure they’re staying safe!
“Jenna has been such a lifesaver! She takes great care of her pup clientele. 10/10 would recommend her! I was always sent an update, and plenty of pictures of the dogs getting some fresh air mid-day.”
About: Being an energetic and patient person, your pets will thrive in my care, getting loved like they are my own. I have many years of experience w/ dogs & cats, a couple reptiles, and an occasional hamster. Not having any pets of my own, and being an empty nester, I have a very flexible schedule as well. I am now an empty nester, with no pets of my own, so my schedule is very flexible. I can happily provide short- or long-term care for your pets. I will ensure that your pet is loved and kept safe from harm. I can also give your pet a bath if needed, take them on walks and/or runs, give medication and lots of snuggles!

“Sarah is a very caring petsitter and went above and beyond to make sure my pet was well looked after. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet. She's the best sitter we've ever had!”
“Highly recommend Debbie! She was so good with our pup. She posted pictures every visit so we could see her while we were gone. She was very quick on responding and a great communicator. We will definitely be using her again!”
“We needed a dog sitter at the last minute for our 4 large dogs for a weekend and Emma responded quickly and was able to come over and meet the dogs later that day, despite the short notice. They immediately took to her and acted like she was part of the pack. Emma took great care of them and was very communicative throughout the weekend, writing us very detailed visit descriptions and sending lots of pictures. She made our first time using this service very easy. Would definitely use her to check on or sit for our dogs again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Edinburgh on Rover is $18.59 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of June 2026, there are 27 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Edinburgh. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
