“Grace is wonderful! She is kind, considerate, and did such a great job with our cat. She stayed a week in our home and treated it as her own, accepting packages, keeping things clean, sending us pictures, and letting us know about her days while we were away. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again!”

About: I love caring for animals - both my own and for others! I have sat dogs for friends on deployment, taken care of mixed pet households (including cats and dogs), cared for senior and disabled dogs, and have experience caring for a wide range of non-traditional pets as well. I'm currently a stay-at-home dad to a wonderful daughter, and my partner works from home, so I have flexibility in my daily and weekly schedules. I understand that different pets need different care and support. Have a super energetic dog? I love playing fetch and going on long walks. Have a kitty that needs silence and space? I'm happy to provide quiet company and respect their boundaries. I'm attentive, consistent, detail-oriented, and responsive. I take caring for your animals as seriously as my own.

About: I have worked at a Vet Clinic as well as taken care of dogs, cats, and livestock my whole life. I love the animal industry and have always had a passion for animal advocacy! With working in the Vet Clinic I have been able to learn all kinds of things like administering medication, knowing signs of distress, proper cleaning, and many other things. I do student teach on Mondays and Tuesday all day so those days would be longer between being let out! I am currently a college senior at the University of Arkansas. I am currently student teaching at prairie grove high school two days out of the week. The rest of the week I will be working at Brickcity but have a flexible schedule where I can check on pets during the day before, during, or after my shifts! I student teach on Mondays and Tuesdays so those would be longer between being let out! Since I have been involved in a veterinary clinic I know when animals might be not feeling well or need medical attention. I am able to crate a dog as well as give them appropriate walks. I love playing and entertaining dogs as well.

About: I’ve grown up alongside dogs and other animals and helped take care of them since I was young. When I was sixteen, my family adopted our puppy Sal at eight weeks old, and it was my responsibility to take care of him, train him, and love on him. From there, I volunteered at Almost Home animal shelter in Van Buren for two years, where I walked dogs of all sizes and weights, played with them, fed and cared for them, and cleaned out their kennels and bowls. As of now, I’m living away from my family dog since I’m in college, but I’m helping a friend of mine walk and train her newly adopted Cane Corso (she’s a sweetie). I’ve watched dogs for friends and family all through the years, as well. As far as cats go, I’ve loved them since I was a kid, and I adopted one two years ago! His name is Walter, he’s a tabby and the sweetest boy alive, and I love taking care of him, even if he shreds my arms sometimes. Pets need love and patience, and that’s exactly what I have for them. :) I’m currently in college, so while I have a couple of busy days (Mon., Tue., Thur.,) the rest of my week is very free! And I always have plenty of time for sitting. I can easily adapt to your pet’s regular schedule, including mealtimes, bedtime, medication, if they need to be crated, playtimes, etc. The comfort and happiness of your pet is my first focus.

I know how important a dog can be to a human (mans best friend for a reason), so I will be sure to take care of your dog/ cat as if it was my own.

I love all animals, but dogs are the purest of all. I can’t wait to meet yours!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and currently have a cat, so caring for animals has always been a part of my daily routine. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so I can keep them happy and comfortable. I truly enjoy being around animals and treating them like my own. For the last 3 years I have fostered puppies from Best friends and Paws and Claws on and off! Monday – Friday: Open availability Weekends: Open / depends on dates Flexible with times and short notice bookings Open to mornings, afternoons, evenings, and occasional weekends depending on needs and scheduling availability. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine feeding them on time, going on walks, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and not stressed while you’re away. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so I can adjust and make them feel at ease. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I try to keep things calm and familiar so they feel right at home. I treat every pet like my own and genuinely enjoy making sure they’re happy and well cared for.

About: Hey! My name is Camilla, I go by Rosie. I am a big animal lover! I am a sophomore in college and would love to take care of your fur baby! Growing up I have always had either a cat or a dog in my home. I currently have two dogs (Martha and Augie) and one cat (Sirius Black). In the past and currently I have helped pet sit for friends, family members and those in my community! Because of my past of having both cats and dogs I have prior knowledge on both species and how to take care of them. I have worked with dogs that can be a bit territorial and cats that seem a bit defensive when it comes to new people, from those experiences I have learned how to handle situations in a manner that relieve the stress of both the animal and care taker. My dog Augie is young and I have taught him all of his commands in French! My other dog Martha is older in age, from watching her grow in age since being a puppy I have learned the behaviors of older dogs and how to take care of their needs so they feel comfortable. I have given medication to dogs and cats before and understand the importance of keeping them happy and healthy. I am sophomore in college and currently not working a full time job. Which gives me free time to be able to help take care of your fur babies! My availability can be flexible and I can be available during the day or evenings for both weekdays and weekends. Times may vary, Monday mostly during the day and evening but I will be able to check in on both cats and dogs twice a day at least. More if needed. Would love to discuss more information if needed. I can assure you that your home will be treated with the most up respect and cleanliness. When checking in on your pet I will make sure that they will have clean water and food. If they make a mess or have an accident I will clean it up and make sure they are left in a clean environment. With the knowledge of taking care of dogs and cats in the past I understand the seriousness of making sure nothing is in reach of them getting into something they shouldn’t.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for several years for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m happy to complete walks, administer medications, clean litter boxes, and give your babies any specific attention that you require I’m currently about to start the school year, so I am available on weekends, evenings, or early mornings. Depending on the time of year, I may have more availability. Let’s discuss what works best for your needs! I prefer to complete drop-in services as needed due to having fur babies that are very structured in their own routines. Contact me and we can discuss logistics!

Kellie is a caring and dependable sitter! She was very diligent in caring for my cats and chickens and even offered to do extra chores to make sure my home was taken care of while I was gone. Not only did she thoroughly follow all of the detailed routines and complete the chores, but she took extra time to get to know my animals and spend quality time with them. She is also easy to communicate with and very responsive. It's clear she loves caring for animals and I highly recommend booking with her.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Elkins

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Elkins on Rover is $23.31 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 396 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Elkins. 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 Elkins. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
