“Monique and her husband were professional and flexible with my schedule. It is clear they took very good care of Arti and she looked forward to their visits! Would book again for sure”
“Indiana was awesome! Great communication leading into the visits and throughout, nice pictures of the pets (which my kids really enjoyed), and the pets were well cared for. Plus her rate was very fair. I highly recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting near Chester and look forward to having Indiana care for our pets again!”
About: I am a highly responsible, attentive, and compassionate dog lover dedicated to treating your pups with the exact same care and affection I give my own. With a strong focus on safety, punctuality, and clear communication, I ensure that every dog gets the physical exercise they need and the mental stimulation they crave. Whether managing high-energy breeds on long walks or providing calm, soothing companionship during in-home sitting, I prioritize your dog’s unique routine and well-being above all else. Im currently free at any time looking to make extra money and wanting to show off my skills of caring for animals I am excited I would make sure to provide food and water, regular exercise, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. I maintain a clean environment by cleaning up after them, washing food and water bowls, and keeping litter boxes or outdoor areas tidy. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health and communicate any concerns promptly. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine to help them feel secure while their owner is away.
“Darnell is the absolute best. Has been great with my cat and sends tons of photos, including pictures of litter, food, and water so you feel extra reassured your pet is well taken care of.”
“Hana is amazing! She’s so flexible and understanding when it comes to schedules and demands of each animal in the home. She truly cares about our animals (she will leave our tv on for our dog so she isn’t lonely) and does enrichment treats without us even asking her to. I trust her with our babies 100%”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for a few years now, and what sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for all kinds of animals, and my determination to provide a safe, loving, and harm-free environment for your pets. I’m currently a college student athlete at Virginia State University, and a member of a social organization on campus, those are my only responsibilities, and I am unemployed while at college. I give my pets a lot of love and rubs whenever I can, I also feed them reasonably and clean their litter box frequently. I also leave my door open in case my pets want to sleep and spend time with me.
“Jessica has dropped by on my pupsters on two separate occasions, and I would trust her anytime I need some help. She always provides adorable updates and is communicative. The pups have a great time with her. I will book Jessica everytime if she's available!”
“Kayce communicated very well with me and took such good care of Tucker! She was prompt and on time with her visits and ensured to keep him busy the entire time she was there. I received many pictures that helped reassure me he was in great hands! We will definitely have Kayce come back in the future!”

“We had peace of mind knowing Grace was taking care of our cats. This was a long trip so the photos and reports we received connected us to our cats and made us smile. Thanks for doing such a great job Grace.!!”
“Lilliana was excellent and extremely professional. She was on time and went the extra mile to make sure our pets were taken care of. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Lauren is great! We had a mixup on the first morning time but she honestly apologized. She came each time requested other than that morning and was awesome with my 3 dogs. My dogs are not the easiest to take care of (I have a 17 year old blind one who wears diapers) but Lauren was a champ and cleaned up messes. I will use her again for my next trip.”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets. I’m committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll follow your care instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping your fur baby company. Being able to care for them doesn’t feel like a job—it feels like spending time with some of the most pure and loving souls.

About: I've had pets my whole life from the biggest of dogs to cutest of cats. I'm a very active mom, and fitness lover that could always use a furry partner. 🐕🦺🐈 I'm currently working mornings 7am-3pm, so anytime before 6 am or after 4pm drop off works best for me. I have a back yard as well as 1 lovely cat that usually doesnt mind other cats or dogs being around. My home is clean warm and inviting to all animals. Hooray! As a mom pet care fits into my schedule perfectly. My kids have a lot of fun with all animals that come to our home. I currently moved into a smaller place but my 6 year old son and a young wild & free 3 year old son, who can't get enough of the running he gets to do during my sits.
About: Lifelong experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, monitoring behavior, and providing a safe, attentive, and comfortable environment for pets. I am currently going to college and have too much time on my hands. What better time to spend my free time than with your pups. Safety, trust, and creating a positive environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. Having been around dogs my entire life, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. I always ensure pets are supervised, comfortable, and treated like family while maintaining a clean, secure, and stress-free environment. I believe strong communication, reliability, and genuine compassion help build trust with both pets and their owners, allowing every dog to feel safe, happy, and cared for while in my care.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ettrick
Absolutely wonderful sitter! She took such great care of Remy and Gimlet and went above and beyond while we were away. Her updates were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear how much she genuinely cared about them. We came home to happy cats and everything in the house taken care of. We would absolutely book her again!
I HIGHLY recommend booking with Emily, she was a god-sent! Emily quickly replied to my request; was very thorough and mindful when discussing Luna's needs; responded within a timely manner AND follows through with her "Personalized Pet Companionship" motto. Not only was this my first time using Rover, it was my first time leaving my fur-baby behind and Emily soothed my nerves and anxiety every step of the way. With every visit I received multiple photo updates and a full report of the visit- food & water intake, play time, cuddle time, the full works, etc. And when little things needed to be added to the visit or Luna's routine, Emily did not hesitate to provide. I would definitely rebook with Emily whenever a cat-sitter is needed again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,228 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ettrick. 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.

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.
