“Amber was wonderful! She took great care of Arti and Kiwi while I was away and followed all of my instructions carefully. She was reliable, communicative, and made the whole experience very easy and worry-free for me. I really appreciated knowing that my cats were in good hands while I was traveling. I would absolutely recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter, and I’d be very happy to work with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Amber!”
“Keerie was so nice and helpful! She took pictures of not only our cats, but the food and water and litter to show us how that was going as well. It gave us an ease of mind that our cats were treated with great care. Our cats took to her immediately and popped out for pictures and pets! Will book again!”
About: I routinely take care of my extended family's cats. I'm always the first person they contact to check up on their animals. I'm extremely reliable with lots of communication. I'm currently a college sophomore, but I have lots of free time. Nothing will get in the way of me checking up on your animals, and if there is an issue, I will definitely let you know with lots of notice. In addition to this, on Tuesdays and Thursdays I won't be able to come until about noon. :) I pay a lot of attention to my own animals, so naturally, I'll do so with yours. For me, it's not just about making sure they're fed, but also that they're happy. I'm more than able to stick around and spend time with your animals while you're away.
About: I have provided care to 2 pit bulls! I walk them, feed them, give them lots of hugs and pets! Play with them outside and inside. I am currently on summer break and will be spending all my time caring for fur babies! This is my only job this summer! So excited. I will be there for the dogs needs! If the client leaves instructions I will follow them to the T. I will always reach out to the client if i have any concerns regarding the pet i am sitting for.
“Lindsay was amazing! She took excellent care of my two kitties and sent me lots of pictures while I was away. She communicates very well and I appreciate her punctuality. I will definitely look to hire her for all my future trips!”
“Felix did a great job taking care of my three cats. He was great at communicating and very flexible with changing visiting times as needed. I didn't expect my cats to come out and say hi (scaredy cats) so I was mainly worried about the cat boxes, food and water. I have no complaints and the cats are happy and healthy. Thank you Felix!”
“Marie is THE best. She took excellent care of our senior cat while we were on vacation. He needs several meds and an asthma inhaler (YES! on a cat) and not only did she do a great job, but our sometimes shy little guy just loved her! She sent lots of feedback and photos and we were able to relax on our trip knowing he was in excellent hands! I appreciated her attention to detail, promptness, excellent communication and most of all how she truly cared for Monnie:)”
“Highly recommend! Alyssa did an absolute wonderful job watching my cats while I was away. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated with great communication, and made sure everything was perfectly taken care of. If you are looking for a reliable, sweet, and trustworthy sitter, look no further…five stars all the way!!”
“Tyler and Tara were amazing! This was the first time leaving our girls this long but they took such wonderful care of them and gave them all the love that they needed. 1000% recommend them for watching your fur babies. We will definitely be booking them for future trips.”
“Maria was great! Maria watched our cats Oliver and Benny for about a week while my family and I went on vacation. We had no issues at all and the cats seemed very content when we got home. I’d recommend Maria as a pet sitter for others.”
“Kim took great care of our cats and our house as well! She dealt with a complicated feeding schedule and kept things running smoothly at the house. She provided updates every day and pictures at several points, which gave us confidence and assurance while we traveled. When we arrived home, the cats were relaxed, well fed and their demeanor was as if we never left. Thanks again to Kim and we would absolutely recommend her for taking care of your pets and keeping an eye on your home.”
About: Hi! I’m 20yrs old from Akron, OH and I’ve had pets all my life, and grew up on a farm with plenty of em running around. Whether it’s dogs, cats, fish, or rodents. I’m happy to help with it all <33 I currently work full time. My schedule varies, but I do only work mornings, so I’m fully free anytime after 12PM to 3PM depending on the day. I currently only have a dog at home, she’s my baby. I have a scheduled routine set for her. I have lived in homes with cats, and in the past I’ve had rats. My household has kept a calm playful energy.
About: I’ve taken care of cats all my life and worked in rescue for 10 years. I have cared for and medically treated cats of all temperaments and ages! I also own four cats of my own. I currently have a flexible in and out time with my work schedule. I am able to do drop in visits in mornings and afternoons/evenings. Knowing cats can sometimes be temperamental of new people, I will dedicate time and patience for them to be comfortable with me so they feel safe while you’re away.
“Brianne was great! She was on time, stayed for the time booked, sent pictures, fed and played with Kitty, and was friendly in all correspondence. Will book again.”
“Dave was fantastic! He was quick to respond from my initial inquiry. The meet and greet was a success as I could tell my pup loved him right away. Dave was communicative, on time, and followed all instructions. He was tidy and respectful of my home. I felt so at ease knowing my puppy was in good hands and having fun and the photos showing how happy Corbin was were the highlight of my day. Thank you Dave for being so wonderful and taking such great care of Corbin. I know he'll miss you. Hope to book with you again and will absolutely suggest you to friends and family!”

Monica was incredibly attentive, caring, and thoughtful, and she took care of things that I honestly didn’t even consider part of her responsibility. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cats were in such good hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about them and their well-being. I’m extremely grateful for everything she did and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets!
I would definitely book Erin again and recommend her to anyone looking for a good cat sitter! Erin was responsive, followed all instructions, and my cats loved her! I especially appreciate it since my booking was so last minute and I wasn’t able to prepare as much as I usually do.
Marie and Jorge were extremely attentive, communicative and kind throughout all the visits with my cat Sorrel- providing a lot of photos for each visit. They accomodated a lot of special requests for my kitty with much compassion, and assured me while I was away. I am very grateful they agreed to help with my stay and were able to care for my cat. Thank you both very much!
Dakota was amazing with my boys. She was able to connect with my shy one so quickly, which gave me even more relief with their care. She was also extremely easy to reach and she was in constant contact with me. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future for other pet sitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fairlawn on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,220 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fairlawn. 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 Fairlawn. On Rover:
- 96% 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.
