Alexis did an outstanding job! She kept informed and sent lots of pictures. She even got out mail and cleaned our sink! She also had to regularly straighten all the throw rugs from kitty mayhem and didn’t complain at all.

Scott went above and beyond to provide excellent care and service for my two pups. He took time to let my dogs get to know him and earned their trust as they are unsure when meeting new people. Excellent communication throughout the process as well. Thank you!

About: I've had dogs and cats since I was 12, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I love learning each pet's personality, quirks, and what they enjoy most. I believe exercise matters for a dog's body and mind alike — getting to know a dog well means gaining a new friend. Currently home with a senior chihuahua and an energetic puppy, so I'm comfortable with pets at both ends of the spectrum. Available for evening and overnight care. Pet care fits around my regular work schedule, so I'm primarily available in the evenings after 5pm on weekdays, plus weekends. I can reliably handle drop-in visits and dog walks during these windows, which works well for pet parents who are away at work or have evening commitments. Overnight stays are something I can also offer, but those need to be discussed and coordinated in advance since my availability for those varies more than my regular evening slots. Unfortunately, boarding is not something I can offer at my home at this time! It is hopefully something I would love to be able to do in the future.

About: Hi there! I've been doing canine caretaking on the Rover platform since 2023. My property is a located on the same street as the McClelland Dog Park, a 5-minute walk. As veteran dog owners, we make regular use of it! Prior to doing Rover, I frequently helped friends and family with their dogs for many years. Nearly everyone I know has pets and I've hosted dozens in my home. My clients love the close proximity to a public park with trails. Currently I have 2 dogs - Ellie and Bishop. My yard is fully fenced and your dog will enjoy plenty of outside play time with Ellie and Bishop, as well as trail walks and trips to the dog park. I also live a 5-minute drive from the nearest veterinary clinic, and I have room for crates. I also offer professional photography services for your pet for an extra fee. Ask about it during your dog's stay if interested! I work a regular day job, but it's very close to home so I come home daily for lunch to and for the dogs and run them in the yard. Off on weekends with fairly open schedule. Ellie and Bishop are exercised daily and worked with often, and are very well behaved with both dogs and people. The backyard is directly connected to a public park with trails. Yard gates are secured with locks and monitored with cameras.

Beth is amazing! I was nervous to get a sitter/walker for my reactive guy but he adores her and I don’t worry at all when he’s in her care. I have already and will rebook and highly recommend Beth to other pet parents.

Lauren was very helpful while I was out of town. She kept up on the litter box, made sure my cat had enough food and water, and even tried to play when he was interested. And supplied my cat with a LOT of cuddles while I was gone. 😂 She was very flexible, arranging a time to meet me and my cat before I booked her services. Very pleasant to work with. Thank you so much for all your help, Lauren!

Monica was absolutely wonderful!!! we had to cancel a vacation last month because our usual sitter went out of town for the summer. We had two other trips booked, and we didn’t know what we were going to do. We found Monica on rover.com and she was amazing! She did such a great job taking care of our kitty Salem! We will definitely refer her to our friends and family. We will also be using her in the future! I can say with total confidence, your pets will be in good hands out with Monica!

I also have experience shadowing doctors and working in the vet-med field at a vaccine clinic. I would love to take care of your pets while you’re away. I have time in the morning Monday-Friday until 11 or 12 as well as late at night to check in on and walk your pets I love walking the dogs and am meticulous about following the owner’s instructions.

I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like family keeping owners updated with photos and giving their furry friends plenty of love and attention. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I’m available mornings and evenings for walks and check-ins, and I keep weekends open for longer stays. I’m home often and always make time to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m willing to do whatever makes you and your pets most comfortable. I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals feel safe and comfortable.

About: I have taken care of dogs from as small as a chihuahua to as big as a Great Dane! I have also have experience with older dogs who might need medication or a different routine than younger dogs. My top priority is to take care of your loved one as if it was my own. As a college student, my summertime schedule is very open. I can provide priority care towards your animals, and with my experience, I can give everyday care that can be suitable towards the needs of your animal. In my apartment, I currently own a feline friend. My cat is very playful and loves company. She also knows when another animal does not want to play and respects their wishes.

About: I've always been an animal lover and have spent years caring for pets for family, friends, neighbors, and my dad's clients. Being the person people trust with their pets is something I take seriously and truly enjoy. I love getting to know each pet's personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, cat care, or house sitting, I treat every pet like part of the family. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Right now, I have an open and flexible schedule while I’m looking for work, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. I offer dependable, detail-oriented pet care for dogs, cats, and small animals such as rabbits, reptiles, and fish. My approach is centered on consistency, safety, and comfort following each pet’s routine closely while providing calm, attentive care. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, walks, or companionship, I make sure every pet feels relaxed, respected, and cared for like family.

About: My name is Olivia and I am a long time animal lover. I have cared for dogs and cats practically my whole life and have experience in a lot of breeds ranging from poodles to pit bulls to Pomeranians. I have experience in administering medications. I am at home full time so that means plenty of love and attention for your fur baby. I will care for your pooch as if they were my own. I will send plenty of pictures and videos while you are away from your fur baby or babies. It is my goal to make pet parents feel at ease leaving their pooch in my care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Erie on Rover is $18.87 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 81 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Erie. 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 Erie. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
