About: Dog and cat lover. Plenty of experience with dogs with anxiety. Will make sure to give your pet all the love and care they need. This will be my only endeavor. I am available weekdays and weekends. Walking and caring for your pet is the most important thing for me. I have two dogs and i am responsible for caring for, feeding, and playing with them. Caring for a pet is about understanding their individual needs, and making sure that they are happy and safe at all times.

Jessie was phenomenal watching Keena! I highly recommend booking Jessie to care for your pets. The level of genuine, positive care Keena received was amazing. My original care plans fell through and Jessie was kind enough to accept my last-minute request. Not only was Jessie gracious enough to accept help me out, but Jessie came by to meet Keena and make her feel comfortable before watching her. Jessie gave many updates, sent photos, and was always playing with Keena during visits; clearly making her feel comfortable. Jessie also dealt with some fear issues my dog was having, and did everything possible to make Keena feel better. When I returned from my trip, Keena was wagging and happy as could be, which told me she was well taken care of while I was away!

Thanks for taking such good care of our Allie! She was in such good spirits when we came home! Jamie did an excellent job of checking in with pictures and updates. Our black lab Allie was happy spending time with Jamie during her stop-ins. She even brought our mail and packages in which was greatly appreciated.

About: Hi, I'm Brooke! I’m 19 years old and have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, I was never without a pet, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. My first cat, Hunter Patches, was a huge part of my life before he passed last year. Since then, I’ve welcomed two new cats, Loki and Marie, into my family. I also have a 10 year old rescue dog named Gunner and recently rescued a bearded dragon named Dino. I’m comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and reptiles, and I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check on, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all kinds. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have a flexible routine and enjoy spending time feeding, playing with, walking, and giving attention to pets throughout the week. I will care for your pets like they’re my own by keeping them fed, comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their routines closely, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they feel calm and cared for in their home environment.

About: Hi, my name is Rachel. I have been around all types of animals basically my entire life, dogs being my favorite of course. I've been around small dogs, average sized dogs and larger dogs. Because I'm a highly energetic person and love to run and play, I will be able to provide a great and fun environment to your pup. Since I've moved from home ( New York ) I am no longer around my family pets, whom I miss very much, Rover gives me an opportunity to make friends with your pup's, so for that I'm extremely greatful and excited to get started. I am eager to meet yourself and your fur child, and I'm even more excited to become their very good friend! ?

About: While I do not currently have a four-legged friend of my own, I have raised and cared for dogs and cats over the past 30+ years. I have also cared for dogs and cats for friends and neighbors. My experience includes fostering rescue dogs of different breeds (mostly pit bulls), size, age and temperament. I love all dogs and appreciate their unique personalities and energy levels. I will provide basic training, lots of playtime, walks, belly rubs, cuddles, whatever your fur baby needs… I will treat them as my own and give them lots of love & affection. You can rest easy knowing that while you are away, your paws are in good hands, receiving the attention they deserve. To ensure that our time together is stress-free and safe, I will not watch dogs from multiple households. 🐶❤️ As of January 2024, I am semi-retired and self-employed. My flexible schedule allows for plenty of time for playing fetch and going for several daily walks. I currently have no other animals of my own in my home. Therefore, I have lots of room in my home and my ❤️ to care for your fur baby. I have a fenced in yard and a dog-friendly, quiet neighborhood for walks and play time. I will base activities on their age, size and energy level. I have patience and understanding in caring for dogs who may be a little nervous at first, especially if it’s their first time away from family. I will keep you updated on our adventures so that you can rest easy and feel confident that your four-legged family member is in good hands.

Ginnie was able to do drop-ins with our two cats through the Thanksgiving holiday, which we were very grateful for! She was even able to come Thanksgiving day. She was delayed a few times due to snow, but she kept us updated so we knew what was going on. She followed our feeding instructions and the cats were well-cared for while we were gone.

About: My family adopted our first puppy when I was 5 years old and I assisted with the training and care of all 3 of our dogs since then. My childhood pal lived to be 16 and I helped take care of him throughout all stages of life. I work a 9 - 5 in person but have plenty availability before and after work for early morning or early evening walks. Weekends and weeknights are no problem for my schedule. Please lay out any specific care instructions for long-term visits so I can ensure that your pet is getting the same care and regimen from me as they would you.

Mikala was awesome! She was very responsive and friendly. She communicated every visit on the status of Dipper. He was well taken care of and got some play time every visit. I am happy with Mikala’s service and hope to be a repeat customer of hers next time we need a dog sitter.

Thank you again to Ginnie for taking care of our two cats. They both need a little extra care with their food because of medicine and sensitive tummy issues and Ginnie took care of that. She also was able to water our 3 outdoor potted plants which we really appreciated!

Mikala did an excellent job taking care of my kitty. She was able to give her an oral medication every day while also making sure all her needs were met…scooping litter, changing her water and making sure she had clean dishes and fresh food.i would absolutely recommend her and use her again myself.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Fairmount

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fairmount on Rover is $16.65 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 304 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fairmount. 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 Fairmount. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.
