“Jada took great care of our cat Grayson while we were away. She sent updates and pictures every visit so we knew how he was doing and never had a worry on our trip. We cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and genuinely love getting to know each pet’s individual personality and routine. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and understand that every animal has different needs, whether they’re playful and energetic or prefer a little more space and patience. I’m attentive, dependable, and will always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am available all day Friday-Sunday. If necessary I can open my availability up from 10am-2pm Monday-Thursday. Open to discuss whatever works best for you! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I’m attentive to their behavior and surroundings and will always treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own.
“The 1st time I had to leave my cats, Pookie and Ziggy, with a Pet-Sitter. Sandy was PROFESSIONAL, PUNCTUAL, and stayed and played with my Furbabies. Sandy sent me pictures each day, which put my mind at ease. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Sandy!!! I will use her again!!!😻😻😻”
“Our 13 and 14 y/o high-maintenance kitties were so delighted with Kristie's care. They took to her right away which is definitely not common. She communicated with us well and understood our action-packed kitty schedule. We felt at ease while we were away for a weekend trip with Kristie at the helm!”
“Chris and his wife took very good care of my Kitty Ember! They sent frequent updates and photos it her on an earring schedule that actually suited her better then mines did. As a first time pet sitting service user, I was ver anxiety ridden. I was unsure of leaving Ember with someone I didn’t know personally but they showed me why they have 8 repeat clients! Next time I go on vacation, I hope they’re still on Rover because their service was very much to my liking.”
“Sydney took great care of our three cats while we were away for two weeks. I was really nervous leaving them behind but they were well taken care of and got comfortable with Sydney pretty quickly. Sydney sent lots of pictures and did a great job keeping us updated. I think the kitty gang would love to have her back anytime!”
“Wendi was wonderful with our cat! She was on time, very communicative, and took great care of our cat. She gave us peace of mind that our cat was in good hands while we were away!”
About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, having been born into a family with two dogs and two cats. For the past 15 years, I’ve been pet sitting on and off, even as a kid, when my friends were babysitting children, I always chose to pet sit! I truly believe every animal has their own unique personality, and I have never met a pet I didn't like. I even adopted my own animals while living abroad in Ghana, and while they can be a bit "evil" sometimes, I love them entirely! I know how to appreciate and care for pets with all kinds of quirks, boundaries, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs at all stages of life, from energetic kittens and puppies to seniors needing gentle care. Drawing on my background in medical school, I am highly comfortable and capable when it comes to safely administering animal medications. Most importantly, I will strictly adhere to your pet's schedule, diet, and daily routine to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I have reliable transportation and a huge heart! Can’t wait to meet your fury family! Pet sitting is my main focus, giving me full-time flexibility and open availability to dedicate entirely to your pets. Because I have an open schedule, I can seamlessly adapt to your pet's exact daily rhythm, whether they need early morning walks, strict mid-day medication times, frequent potty breaks, or simply quality companionship throughout the day. Your routine is my routine. Integrity, trust, and clear communication are the foundation of how I care for your home and pets. My top priority is giving you complete peace of mind while ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and deeply loved. I treat every home with utmost respect, leaving it spotless and exactly as found (or better, handling any senior pet accidents immediately and thoroughly). Experienced with walks, bathing, feeding, medication administration, potty breaks, and plenty of affection. I customize communication to your style, sending daily photo updates and detailed check-ins if you like to stay in the loop, or keeping it quiet and simply handling everything so you can fully disconnect.
About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life, including neighbor’s, family’s, and friends’ pets! I have experience with senior dogs and puppies with my own dogs. I have cared for creatures of all kinds including dogs, cats, fish, birds, bunnies, and more! I recently graduated high school and am available for most of the summer and over my school breaks. During the summer, I occasionally babysit and I volunteer at a dojo on Saturday mornings. I only have a few small vacations so I am free the majority of the time. I have a dog of my own and do not want to risk conflicts so I am offering services that do not require pets to visit my home. I have a background in teaching so I am very observant and energetic if needed so your pet will have someone to watch them and play with them. I love being outside so I will gladly take your pet on walks and play with them outside.
“Theresa was wonderful and attentive and communicative. It made me feel at ease to know that my cats were in good hands. She clearly loves animals and is knowledgeable about pet care. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Attention to detail and timeliness and super important to me. Trust me and I’ll watch your loved one like a member of my family. I work a simple 8-5 Monday-Friday. Looking to add a second income during these trying times. I do not do anything halfway. You’ll get the best service and communication you’ve received, which will make it hard to use anyone else after. 3-4 walks per day as well as at least 30 minutes of play time fully dedicated to my pup where he can let out all of his energy. I can tailor my routine to whatever your animals need.
“Rachel was so great with Cinnamon! She did 4 drop-in visits on the hottest day of the year and made sure to refill her water and food bowls. She sent pictures and short videos during each drop-in showing her and Cinnamon playing and getting cooled off with the hose, which Cinnamon loves! Will definitely be using her in the future!!”
“Ja’Vae was a great sitter to work with! She was quick to communicate, very flexible, and totally understanding. She sent lots of photos and ensured my pet would be in good hands for the week. I came home to both a happy cat and a very clean apartment. Thank you so much!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,263 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Elrama. 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
