“Lexi was a very dependable dog sitter while we were away for the weekend. She was kind and patient with my doggie who can be a little lazy, she checked in on time and sent details and photos in a timely fashion. I felt that my doggo, Mama Zoe, was very safe with Lexi. Thank you, Lexi!”
“Having Christina watch my cats was a great experience! I have 3 cats who all have different ways of interacting and she took the time to engage them all individually and my cats loved her. Great communication!”
“Kelsey responds quickly. She sends photos and clear information about her visit. My pets are all comfortable with her! She is flexible and able to accommodate specific requests or preferences easily!”
“Jenn took excellent care of our sweet kitty Lola. Even though Lola is quite shy, Jenn did her all to engage her and make her feel comfortable. I appreciate her professionalism greatly. Would highly recommend.”
“Emily took great care of my three kitties while I was gone. She was wonderful at communicating and following the instructions I left. The litter area is clean and she watered my plants! I highly recommend her for your pet care. A+++”
“Jen was so awesome with our dogs. One had lots of unexpected accidents and she was very understanding. She had great communication and took the great care of them.”
“Hailey did such an amazing job with our cat! She sent a thorough and thoughtful update with tons of pictures and showed our girl was not just checked on but cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Sarah did it again! We have a whole herd at our house between resident and foster dogs and she gave great care to everyone. We just feel so much better having her stop by when we are gone for a long day.”
“I’ve had a great experience with Ana! My dogs liked her immediately during our meet and greet, and I could tell she knew her way around bigger dogs. Communication was super straightforward and fast - she even asked how often I want updates, which I really appreciate. Ramses was very relaxed when I came home after Ana’s visit. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
About: From week long in-home stays to quick 15 minute walks, I have done it all! I started occasional dog walking in 8th grade and i’ve continued pet care for 9 years. I have experience with high energy and large dogs like Belgian Malinois to lower energy senior dogs that just need companionship. I can truly cater to each dog and what they need. I grew up with dogs and currently have two, a rottweiler and a lab. I currently work two jobs but they are usually pretty spread out time wise. I work in the morning from 7:30 to 2:00pm and two nights a week from 7:00pm to 12:00 am. I have weekends free so plenty of time for visiting! I will not be able to offer any in home care as I have two dogs at home that do not enjoy the company of others.
About: I am an experienced cat cuddler and cat mom who has strong caregiving skills from routine feedings and litter box scooping to giving elderly cats medications and subcutaneous fluids. I also enjoy simple feedings and light walks with dogs. I am returning to graduate school in the fall, and am looking to supplement my income. I will have quite a bit of flexibility, particularly in mornings and evenings for pet care. I am looking forward to pet care breaks from my studies. In your home, I will remember it is your pet's place. I will respect that. I will offer treats, food, water, change cats litter boxes, play with wand toys, and whatever else your pet enjoys. I will build a relationship with your pet.
“Kelsey was incredible. First she was extremely flexible as I changed my plans on her many times! I booked out in advance and she followed up with me beforehand. My cats love her and loved to play and be pet! She handled my entry instructions great and I felt very safe leaving my cats in her care and my apartment open to her! I met her in person as well she is so kind. I highly recommend!”
About: I’m the designated dog walker for family and friends because I love going on walks, and dogs love coming with me! I grew up with a dog but only have two cats of my own— so I miss having that four-legged friend to go with me! I’d love to take your dog out for a walk/run, or just let them stretch their legs. Cat owners, I’m happy to give your kitties as much or as little space as they need while making sure they feel the love :) I don’t work Fridays or Saturdays, so I am free to help anytime then! Definitely looking to fill my Fridays up with some time outside, and I’d love to take your dog with me - or check in on your cat! I usually walk my parent’s and brother’s dogs (about 80 lbs each) so I know how to handle bigger dogs on leashes who tend to stray from the sidewalk. I can clean up after them, feed them, and give them all the pets! For my cats at home, I love to play with strings or catnip - and can cater to their personality as need be.
“Cassie was like absolute clockwork. Our dog instantly loved her and Cassie has a natural way with animals. She came exactly when scheduled and kept us completely up to date on our dog's status. A definite recommend!!”
About: For 5 years, I’ve cared for a foster cat I adopted, looked after 3 senior cats—including giving medication—and am experienced with home visits to feed and play. I’m looking to spend my days off walking and playing with pets! With an open schedule, I love taking frequent walks around town and would be thrilled to have a furry companion join me for some fun and exercise. I’m available most days of the week and ready to help your pet get moving! While I don’t offer pet sitting in my own home, I’m dedicated to respecting your pet’s routine and following your guidelines to provide the best care possible in your home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Elm Grove
Cannot say enough about Dave and how amazing he is with our boys. They love seeing him in a way they don’t with other people and he always takes exceptional care of them. We’re really lucky to have him and we don’t need to worry when we go out of town at all because we know our furry family members are in such good hands.
We cannot recommend Carolyn highly enough! She did a fantastic job watching our cats, Ava and Chase. She followed all of our care instructions and made sure to spend quality time playing with them. It was so reassuring to see the attention to detail she had, like cleaning out their bowls at every single feeding. On top of the stellar care, she took absolutely incredible pictures of them while we were away! We would book with her again with zero hesitation.
Jenifer was amazing doing drop and visits for our cats. We really appreciated how responsive she was when we first reached out to her. Her communication was great, including photos of her daily visits. We felt very comfortable having her in her home and have no doubt our pets were well cared for. We will absolutely rebook with Jenifer!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Elm Grove on Rover is $24.42 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 1,074 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Elm Grove. 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 Elm Grove. On Rover:
- 92% 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.
