Alexis goes above and beyond for our dog! She makes sure he has a lot of love and gets his energy out while we are away at work. I feel much better leaving Kirby alone knowing that he is in good care with Alexis.

Emily sent photos each drop-in visit and adapted when I anxiety-ridden Chihuahua decided to escape the inside enclosure. Emily was so calm and gentle with our doggos.

About: Grew up in Alaska always with a pack of dogs by my side. Have tended dog sled teams. Would love to work with your dog regardless of size, breed, or temperament. Available before 11am M-F and after 8pm M-F. Available most weekends and holidays. Reach out with your needs and I'm sure we can figure it out! Will work with your animal based on their specific needs in their own home. No two dogs are the same and I understand that proper animal husbandry cannot take a one size fits all approach.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small animals since I was a child for my family and neighbors. My first pet sitting job was watching a cat and a rabbit for my neighbor. As an adult I’ve also had to care for injured dogs and cats. I love animals and want to enrich their lives within my abilities. On a daily basis I take Maggie out several times a day for walks and play sessions in our dog park. Combining my high energy with my love of animals and the outdoors made dog walking a natural choice for a new opportunity for me. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I am attentive, playful, accommodating, loving, and so much more. If you have a specific exercise or feeding schedule or ANY specifics that you want me to adhere to I am very detail oriented and happy to oblige.

About: I truly love animals and have been around them my entire life. I currently have dogs and cats of my own, so caring for animals is part of my everyday routine. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs patience, attention, and love. My home provides a safe and welcoming environment, including a fenced-in yard for dogs to play. My pets are friendly and accustomed to being around other animals. I treat every pet like a member of my own family and will provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel comfortable while they’re away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I have multiple dogs and cats of my own. I work full-time during the day, but I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and regular potty breaks. Your pet will be treated like family and cared for in a loving home environment. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean, pet-friendly home with a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time. I currently have four friendly dogs and five cats who are well-socialized and used to being around other animals. I carefully monitor all pets, follow feeding and medication instructions, and provide a loving environment where they can feel safe, comfortable, and at home. If for any reason, you don’t feel comfortable with your animals being around mine, my dogs can go to my mother-in-law’s.

We have 4 cats: 3 indoor, 1 outdoor. Two of the indoor cats hid from Emily the whole week. For the 2 cats that interacted with her, she sent us updates and photos. She played with our kitty and had no issues feeding the outdoor cat. We will definitely be asking Emily to cat sit for us again. We are thankful to have her.

This was our third sitting trip with Theresa and she was lovely as always! Everything was in perfect order when we came back and we loved the updates we received while away. 😄

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Elkins

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Elkins on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of June 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 .

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.
