“Meretta is amazing! She went above and beyond for my cat while I was gone. She really won her over and loved her check ins by the end of the week! Meretta is very trustworthy and communicative, I would highly recommend her to anyone! I loved getting lots of cute pictures of my kitty while away.”
About: Hi, I’m Paola! 🐾 Professional pet spoiler, part-time treat giver, full-time animal lover. Whether your furry friend needs belly rubs, playtime, or just someone to tell them they’re a very good boy/girl — I’m your human! 🐶🐱💕 I treat every pet like they’re my own (yes, that means baby talk and extra snuggles). Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch — I’ve got this! Pet care is a big and joyful part of my daily life! 🐾 I work a part-time job, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. I plan my schedule carefully so your furry friend always gets the attention, exercise, and love they need — whether it’s morning walks, playtime, or relaxed cuddle sessions. Because I only take on a manageable number of pets at a time, I can give each one my full focus and care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and making them feel safe and happy is a top priority in my routine — every single day. 💛🐶🐱 In My Home: Your pet will have a blast in my big, fully fenced backyard — perfect for playtime, sunbathing, and zoomies! 🐕☀️ I’ve also got a safety gate for the stairs, so everyone stays safe, whether they’re a curious pup or a relaxed senior. Inside, it’s a cozy, calm environment with plenty of space to nap, play, and feel right at home. Bonus: lots of snuggles are included at no extra cost. 😉 Every pet is treated like family — because they are! 🐾❤️

“Kelsey was able to do a last minute drop in visit on a holiday. I couldn’t thank her enough! I loved the photos and was so glad to see my little guy taken care of. Thank you again!!”
About: I have a loving family of six with AWESOME indoor and outdoor space to take great care of your furry besties. I am home most days and nights full time. 3 of our kids homeschool, and assist with much of the work and care. I’ve cared for pets large and small, young and senior, my whole life.

My space offers many options for play, rest, and I’ll make sure they’re loved, happy, and healthy. I am home often during the day and always at night. Part of our children’s education is to learn responsibility and to work well and often in the home. Caring for others pets as a business teaches love, care, empathy, work, and so much more. Their care will be a high priority in my home! Fully fenced large backyard with lush grass and shade. Roomy indoor pet-friendly spaces. Daily exercise and play for friends with lots of energy. Many opportunities for caring human interaction.
“Brianna was fantastic. She came and sat with our little anxious Millie twice a day. She sent us pictures while we were away and contacted us with any questions. She also was kind enough to keep an eye on our outside plants to make sure the drip system was working properly so all my plants didn’t die. Will definitely have her sit for us again.”

“Very happy with Grace and Lance. They were able to come play with our dog with very little notice and flexible with a willing attitude. Even noticed the water needed filling and took care of that!”
“Great care in making sure our cat was cared for. Our daughter lost her brush somewhere and they made sure she had one for the consequent visits since she’s a long haired cat. Pancake really enjoyed her which is great as our cat isn’t too friendly with others normally.”

Kaylie is the BEST! My cat is so shy, but Kaylie was able to help her feel comfortable and play with her while we were gone. She is great at communicating and was very caring. I would highly recommend her if you need someone to check on your animals when you’re away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 458 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Elk Ridge. 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 Elk Ridge. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 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.
