“Cassandra is such an amazing sitter! She always does such a great job with my kitties while I’m out of town and they all love her so much. She sends the sweetest pictures and updates of my boys too and I always feel at ease knowing that she can visit while I’m away. <3”

“Alyssa did a great job caring for our cats while we were away. They are both very shy and usually keep their distance from new people, so it meant a lot that she was able to make them comfortable enough to come out during her visits. She also did an excellent job communicating, sending thoughtful updates and photos that helped us relax and enjoy our trip. We would happily book Alyssa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”

About: I've lived with and cared for dogs for my entire life; I love all animals, big, small, young, old and anywhere in between, the more animals the better! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, and fish and I get along with all of them. I am available for early mornings and late nights as well as weekends. I am also familiar with and unphased by the less glamorous sides of pet care, I don't mind cleaning up after puppy accidents, I have some experience grooming our shaggier four legged friends, and I know how to administer most puppy medications. I work from home so my availability is wide open for whatever you and your animals need. I am an extremely active person so there is no limit to much I will love and play with your pup, but I will also be patient and sensitive to nervous dog and cats. There is no puppy personality that I don't love. I can't wait to meet your dog! I work remote most days. I also have weekends and evenings available for more involved activities. When im not pet sitting i like to take my own dog for hiking/ camping adventures! A typical day starts with breakfast and a nice romp around the yard, or brisque walk around the neighborhood so your dog can go potty and get out some morning energy. I have a flexible schedule at work so i can take frequent breaks to play and attend to your critters needs. In the evenings, im free again and i like to spend time being active, whether its a long walk, a game of fetch, or even an adventure to the park

“Amanda is the perfect sitter. We felt so happy that our dogs were with her while we were gone. Our dogs were so happy the whole time and Amanda sent us plenty of photos. She even stopped by for an extra visit because we had a flight delay. Our one dog is a big, excitable Rhodesian Ridgeback but she had no problem handling him. We will never use anybody else in this area to watch our dogs.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a little girl. My family has fostered animals growing up, showing me the true meaning of giving someone love even if it’s just temporarily.

Let me know what days you need and I will get right back to you! The pets I babysit for are my first priority. Every single one of their needs will always be met and is the most important part of my day.

About: I have a lot of experience with pets, both dogs and cats from a young age. I have a five year old Boston terrier at home. I am currently working a full time job, but I would be available for drop in visits/dog walks during the week after 3pm or on the weekends either day or night time. I am currently living in a small apartment so I would not be available for boarding someone else’s dog in my own home. Thank you.

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old who recently passed away. I live with my parents who are also fellow animal lovers and love when I pet-sit for friends. It brings life and fun to our household to host your furry friends. I currently work part time waitressing a few nights a week nearby. I am off weekends so I have all that time carved out to take care of pets! I have an unfenced, medium sized open field directly across from my condominium building I can take your pet for potty breaks and play time. I can keep them leashed for their safety. My parents, who I live with, are fellow animal lovers who love spending time with animals. I have a lazy cat who spends most of the day sleeping, but he lives upstairs in our split unit with my parents. My unit is entirely separate from where he resides, so if your pet doesn’t like cats, it’s no problem!

My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home, while giving you complete peace of mind. I specialize in: 🐶 Dog drop-in visits and potty breaks 🦴 Feeding, fresh water, treats, and playtime 🚶 Walks and exercise tailored to your dog’s needs 🐱 Cat care, including feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of attention 💊 Medication administration (if needed and instructions are provided) 📸 Detailed visit updates with lots of photos so you know your pets are happy and doing well I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves to play or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I’ll care for them just the way they’re used to. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I know how much our pets mean to us—they’re family—and I’ll care for yours with the same kindness and attention I’d want for my own.

About: Dog walker & cat lover. My pet experience spans from check-in walks to month-long over nights. I enjoy the outdoors and can walk your dog in any weather. I’ve cared for big and small dogs and a variety of cat breeds. I have a lenient, remote 9-5. I can keep your pet company while you’re at work, or stop in for a walk depending on your needs. I travel from time to time but will mark my schedule. I’d prefer pet care to take place in the client’s home. Would need to spend time with your pet before considering boarding at my home.

“Carly was fantastic. She took such great care of our two boys for a week, they were fed and the litter box was spotless when we got home. The most impressive thing was when Carly sent us pictures she was petting our cats. They don't often take to strangers so quickly but loved her right away. I highly recommend using Carly.”

About: I have been around animals and dogs all my life. I was raised on a three hundred acres veil farm in upstate NY where we had German Shepherds, Mastiff, Boarder Collies and Springer Spaniels . The last twenty plus years I have worked with Akita rescue in Florida and have personally owned two Akita's of my own Jayda my heart dog who passed in 2023 and Raider who passed away in 2014. I had hands on training from an Air Force Marine who use to train Belgian Malinois and German Shepherds, but don't let that fool you, I am a sucker for the small guys too! It will be a pleasure of mine to be able to walk, or care for your pet when you need the help. I am currently working part-time. I do have most morning, afternoon and some evenings available for walks, potty breaks, play time and or feedings available. I an not able to take in pets to my home as my son has his little sweet pitty staying with me at this time and does not like to share me with other pets.

Alana was such a delight. My cat immediately came up to her on the day we met and allowed Alana to pet her. Alana did a wonderful job with my cat. She was on schedule every day. She took lots of pics each visit. If you’re looking for a wonderful, sweet caring person, Alana is the one. Pic her 1st and you won’t be disappointed.

Catherine was incredible with my cats! She was prompt and thorough with our drop in visits. My two cats were well taken care of, oral medication were administered on time, and most importantly she was great at reading their body language and giving them exactly the attention they needed! I definitely recommend Catherine!

Eleanor did an amazing job taking care of our cat Jax that is facing kidney issues. Jax requires multiple oral medicines as well as an IV injection daily, neither of which he is a fan of, but Eleanor was able to swaddle him, administer his medicines, and make it as painless as possible. Would definitely recommend.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Elam

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Elam is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $25 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 October 2026, there are 4,216 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Elam. 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elam. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , 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.
