Very professional and great with our dogs. She’s also very confident around our dogs, which is very important to us, because we have two active breeds. We definitely recommend Frances for all Rover services 👍.

Margaret was fabulous with my babies while I was out of town!!! She magically coaxed my bashful kitty out to play — and that’s almost never happened before — and she kept my dog on a regular schedule without the stress and anxiety of being boarded. I’m very grateful for her help so that I could just focus on my visit! If you need someone to check on your pets, I highly recommend Margaret.

About: My lifelong devotion to animals spans decades, beginning at age 7 when I rescued ducklings and extending through a lifetime of loving diverse companions. What sets me apart is the sheer breadth of my hands-on background. Over the years, I have personally owned and shared my life with a wide spectrum of breeds—including a Belgian Shepherd, Staffordshire Terrier, Blue Heeler, and a Miniature Schnauzer. Because I am entirely unphased by size, distinct instinctual traits, or high energy levels, I am uniquely equipped to adapt to your dog's specific personality and look after them exactly as they are. ​As a self-paced online college student, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Because I can study from anywhere, I can easily adapt my routine to fit your pet's needs right in the comfort of their own home. Whether I am house sitting or dropping in for a visit, your pet will get plenty of companionship. For dogs who love to lounge, I am happy to provide all the couch snuggles and belly rubs they can handle—they make the perfect study breaks for me! If they need 100% undivided attention or an active companion for a structured neighborhood walk, I am fully available. ​My care and deep respect extend to all family members, including independent felines—having raised both a Persian and a Maine Coon. I am also uniquely comfortable with a wide variety of animals. When you trust me to care for your home and your pets, you are getting a seasoned, versatile caretaker who honors your exact routine, respects every unique boundary, and treats your animals like family. As a self-paced online college student, my day is incredibly flexible, allowing me to fully prioritize your pet's routine. Because my coursework does not tie me down to rigid class times, I am available throughout the day for house sitting and drop-in care. I can easily adjust my schedule to align with your pet's established walking, feeding, and potty break times, ensuring they experience zero disruption while you are away. Safety and respect for boundaries are the foundations of my care. When staying in your home or dropping in, my first priority is securing the environment by ensuring doors, gates, and windows are locked tight. I closely follow all instructions regarding dietary restrictions, feeding schedules, and household rules. Because every animal communicates differently, I pay close attention to body language to ensure they feel safe and relaxed. Whether it means keeping a young pup's training routine perfectly consistent or knowing exactly where a timid cat likes to hide when meeting someone new, I manage your home and your pets with the utmost vigilance and care.

Kirby was great! I needed some last minute drop ins for my two kitties and she was quick to respond. Her thorough communication with each visit really helped ease my anxiety in having to leave them. My kitties are usually shy around strangers, but I can tell Kirby made an effort to make them feel comfortable.

About: Just relocated to TX from Salt Lake City and we are doing this! Grew up in Northern California, oldest daughter of animal lovers--dogs, cats, pigs, horses--and had zig zagged across the nation before finally settling in Salt Lake City, Utah for 26 years, 15 of which was dedicated to growing my own pet sitting business, 10 of those 15 years going full-time at it. Over the 10 full-time years, I was the sole proprietor and employee, gathering all new family info, communicating about dates and making sure the calendar is 100% accurate, doing every sit and organizing my days for time efficiency, and reaching out to families to ensure they know all is wonderful so they can enjoy (to the highest extent possible) their time away from their pet. Being the sole sitter for a business of that size was intense but from the depths of that intensity came truly profound connections with these pets and their families, as well as a lot of good humorous times. Which led to another business but I digress. Before I left Salt Lake City for my new venture in Austin-ish in June 2026, I was still sitting for over 60 families, some of whom had been with me for at least a decade. I am conscientious, joyful, observant, and above all attentive to the language of animals (e.g., their behavior) so as to forever reach towards getting to watch them fully experience the sense of trust and safety they deserve. I plan to work part-time in the public schools come fall so: Summer: I'm available nearly any time with no conflicts. Fall and Winter: I'll be available early mornings (5:30 a.m.) to about 10 a.m., and after school starting at 2 p.m. on up to 9 p.m. I can only do drop-in visits rather than boarding because my resident dogs aren't so keen on other canines, if you catch my drift. Wouldn't be a good fit, so to speak.

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m a former veterinary assistant with over two years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. During my time in a vet clinic, I assisted with animal handling, administering oral medications, nail trims, collecting lab samples, monitoring pets, and helping them feel safe and comfortable during their visits. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. My own dog has special medical needs, so I’m especially attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, and overall well being. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll provide personalized care and plenty of updates while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved until you return ♥️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My flexible schedule makes it easy to accommodate walks, feedings, potty breaks, playtime, and medication schedules if needed. I strive to keep each pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m located just minutes from Austin-Bergstrom Airport, making drop-offs and pick-ups easy for travelers. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I live in a clean, pet-friendly two-bedroom home with a securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get fresh air. I provide close supervision and don’t leave pets unattended for long periods, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can enjoy your trip knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands.

About: I genuinely love spending time with animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s personality and needs. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including energetic pets that need active walks and playtime, as well as shy or older pets that need a calmer approach and extra patience. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, cleanliness, and making sure pets feel relaxed and loved. What sets me apart is that I truly enjoy building trust with animals. I’m reliable, communicative, and I treat every pet like family. I also understand how important updates are for pet parents, so I make sure to send photos and messages so owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets attention throughout the day. I’m organized, reliable, and able to adjust my schedule to make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I’m very attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s personality and needs. I live in a nice apartment community with plenty of green areas for walks and a dog park nearby, which is great for exercise and outdoor time. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, creating a safe and relaxing environment for pets to feel comfortable and cared for.

About: Caring for dogs has always been my thing. I currently have four at home that I love, care, and walk or run with them every opportunity I get! I love meeting new cute furry and friendly faces! I am a very on time person when it comes to meeting up as well as schedules to follow for your dog. In addition to caring for your dog, if you need help around the house, I’ll be more than willing to take care of things for you. I am a morning person, so if needed before work or when you go to work, I can be there to take care of your dog! Taking them to the park and playing is always fun! Hope to see you!

Megan did a wonderful job by earning five gold stars for her effort! She thoughtfully filled the cat’s water, dry, and wet food bowls every day, and even shared pictures to show her progress. It’s great to see such care and dedication!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Elroy

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Elroy on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,620 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Elroy. 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 Elroy. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
