About: I have had cats my whole life and I love their quirky nature. Recently got my own dog after loving other people’s dogs for years, she just turned three and is pretty well trained and fun to play with. Now I’m branching out to care for and play with your pets so you can get stuff done and have fun. I love them all, hamsters, birds, you name it. I will boop! Right now, I’m available for your pets on weekday evenings and most Saturdays. I’m here for you! Can do. Will enjoy the experience so much. Very excited to have new animal friends to play with. I do have a fenced yard and one large dog, two cats. Mostly I am ready to come to your place for pet care, or take them out on walks as you prefer. I am here for you.
“Gabriel was wonderful with our 2 cats. Our cats opened up to him despite them not being big fans of strangers. He was on time for every visit and followed our instructions perfectly. Provided great daily updates. We would definitely reach out to him again the next time we need a sitter.”
About: I am the Proud Dog Dad of 5 amazing fur babies! I've been blessed to have a total of 28 pets in my lifetime and I would love to care for yours too! I work as a nonprofit CEO during the week, which gives me a flexible, self-directed schedule. Most of my availability is on weekends, but I also have some limited weekday availability for quick walks, drop-in visits, feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins. I provide care for pets in the comfort of their own home and yard, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow each pet owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication (if needed), and any special care requirements. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine while ensuring they receive plenty of attention, affection, and safe, reliable care during your absence.
“Katie is a wonderful find. She came to our home first to meet the guy, see the house, put up with my stories of his fabulousness. Then her evening and morning 1-hour visits were 1) absolutely on time as agreed, 2) featured many photos of his various activities, 3) the completed checklist of meals, litter box, etc. and 4) great info on his behavior, especially since this was the first time she cat-sat. That he hissed at her on first visit, was chill and lovey on his second (sounds like him). Katie has made it her business to know as much as she can about cat behavior (she is a cat owner), such as why female cats may like their rumps rubbed while my male cat might not. She is also just a lovely, attentive, curious person. So glad she's in the neighborhood.”
“Gina took amazing care of our fur baby! She was super communicative, friendly, and took amazing pictures while we were away. Our shy kitty loved her immediately! Definitely will ask her to pet sit for us again. 💛”
“Thank you Julianna! We returned home from our trip, and our it was obvious our pets were well cared for. It is a comforting feeling to know that I have Julianna and Rover there for me when I need to be away from home.”
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 11 years old, starting with the pets of my friends, family, and my own dogs. Over the years, I have learned how to understand their personalities, needs, and routines. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, companionship, or providing extra care for younger or older pets, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet care is not just something I do, it’s something I truly enjoy and dedicate my time to. I currently care for pets full-time, which allows me to give them the attention, love, and consistency they need throughout the day. I love getting to know each pet’s personality, keeping their routines, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their families are away. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I feel grateful to be able to do what I love every day. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and respected in their environment. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, routines, medications, and any special needs their pet may have. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I provide a calm and loving space where they can feel relaxed. I pay close attention to their behavior, keep their environment clean and safe, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection.
“Karyna is everything you want and more! Such a sweet and friendly person. She is super engaging with my dog, great communication, thoughtful, punctual…i could go on and on. I will 100% be calling in her again!”
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and pets and have grown to understand and love them fully and I hope to spread that love towards other animals! I can come take care of pets almost every day! I am a working Christian girl so Sundays I have church for an hour, and I just recently started a new job so far my hours are 10am-7pm Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays! I’m available afternoons on Thursdays and I’m available weekends! I believe that pets require an immense amount of attention and affection and I will always create a trusting bond with the pet owners and answer any questions the owners may have!
“Alexander was fantastic! We highly recommend him. He took such great care of our large Lab Ollie. Alexander was letting us know how Ollie was doing throughout our trip. Great Communication. We'll definitely have him back for out future travels.”
“Looked after my 17 y/o kitty!! Very detailed and easy communication between us! She did a great job and I'm very relieved to have finally met someone in town that has that cat person kind of common sense.”
About: I've volunteered at the Sonoma County animal shelter for the past year walking, bathing and training dogs. I also have two dogs of my own, Dexter and Lulu, who I walk and feed everyday. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and I love it. I am a current student at Santa Rosa Junior College studying nursing and am looking forward to gaining more experience with pet care, as I have a passion for animals. Please contact me directly regarding availability, as it can differ with my school schedule. That said, I am extremely flexible, often able to take last-minute appointments, and always do my best to accommodate. I am available anytime on weekends, while weekdays vary but remain flexible around my classes. I can also do overnights if needed. I ensure pets receive attentive, personalized care in my clients' homes, including regular feeding, exercise, and companionship, while maintaining a safe and comfortable environment tailored to each pet's needs.
About: I love animals more than people! Been petsitting all my life. First to offer my friends and neighbors to be Auntie to their little muffins. I owned a petsitting and dog training business in Portland for many years... had to move and change jobs but I still love having as many furfriends as possible! I consider myself very intuitive and always respect a pets boundaries. Listening is key and watching for body language. I will take the very best care of your home and pet!! Just like they were my own. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around what works best for you. Great at time management and super reliable. I prefer sitting at my clients homes and have extensive experience with housesitting alone. I have managed luxury homes and can offer extra things like plant watering, mail pickup, coordinating with staff, etc.
“Victoria was super attentive and a great communicator. We just needed a quick drop in for our cat this time, but we would definitely love to have Victoria take care of Johnny again!”
“Cathleen was a caring loving caregiver for my cat Shi Shi. I felt comfortable leaving her which was hard to do with fires starting everywhere. She came daily, brushed her, fed her, played with her and took beautiful photos. .”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Eldridge on Rover is $32.19 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,575 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Eldridge. 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 Eldridge. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
