Spent quality time with my kitties and engaged them in some enrichment activities like their treat puzzle. My elderly gal got her medications as expected. We would love to have Danielle back again!”

“Shannon was amazing. Penelope is very anxious and aggressive with strangers when I’m not around and Shannon handled her with patience and compassion. She even went out of her way to get some calming treats for P. Shannon was an excellent communicator and gave several updates per day about Penelope’s mood and eating habits. I’ll definitely be using her next time we go on vacation”

About: I work from home M-F, but could certainly come before 8 AM and after 5. Your cat and I can unwind from the day together! If you are close by, it might be possible for me to come mid-day. On the weekends, I’m generally wide open! I want to make sure I understand where your pets feel safest and how much interaction they are craving. It’s all very personalized to the animal. For social cats, I want to ensure they have all their favorite toys at their disposal, and we can play where they like best. For more quiet, shy cats, I am happy to be a companion for them in the same room or another, just so they know they have a friend nearby if needed. You’ll tell me what’s best for you, and I’ll learn from the cat as well!

About: I have been house sitting for pets since I was a teenager. Both for cats and dogs. I have a very great spirit and love animals. Animals tend to come to me and feel comfortable at first meeting. I've owned dogs growing up and I take care of one now thats my own. And I love it. Everyone that has hired me has appreciated and loved the care that I provide to their pets. I'm on time and always give the pets a good time on a walk and or at the dog park. I love being out doors. I have my own transportation, very easy and flexible schedule and can be on call. I work for myself so I'm available and have flexibility in scheduling. I can do over night stays or regular scheduled walks throughout our the week. I care for the animals if they were my own. With warm hellos and happy playfulness. I comfort them and play with the animals to give them full attention.

About: Trips can be ruff (pun intended) when you do not know what you are going to do with your furry family member! Look no further! Current pet owner with tons of care giving experience to a wide range of animals. Hello, I am Taylor. I currently have a house full of cats! Dachi, my oldest- my dear boy *tears of joy*, then there’s Sorrel the queen of all things prestigious and righteous- but who can forget about Kale? Nobody! This hunk of meat has been described by many as a fat Italian man trapped in a cats body. Along with almost a life's worth of experience caring for dogs in many sizes and tempers, cats, horses, birds, rabbits, rodents, lizards, and fish. I love animals. It brings me joy to give care to any kind of animal. I also enjoy networking with fellow animal lovers! If you ever have any different tasks such as trapping of strays, grooming and things of that nature please feel free to let me know. I have a car, so transportation is no issue. Sitting, walking, first-aid, giving oral and topical medication, and more. My life is based around my cats needs. I have a cat with hyperthyroid and I ensure that my babies are well fed with the best of the best food and probiotics. Some will call it insane. I call it normal. I have a large row house, a small fenced in yard but we would enjoy walks to the park! Your pet will also have the best of snuggles!

About: I am looking forward to hosting dogs in my house. I have a 4 year old dog I recently adopted. He enjoys having other dogs come to visit! I'm a teacher so I am home weeknights and weekends to care for and play with your dogs. Your dog can sleep in my room or can be crated if that is preferred. I am also excited to explore my new neighborhood with dog walks in the evenings. I have recently moved to a new home that has a small front yard. There are trails nearby that I can use for dog walks.

About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds including not just cats and dogs, I currently care for 2 cats and 2 dogs and love them all. I volunteered at an animal shelter for multiple years and want to continue animal based experiences! I work currently part time but often have my weekends free and enjoy a good walk after getting off of my job, I do part time teacher work so the mental refresh is helpful I believe in utmost safety priority, including surveying surroundings constantly for threats, adjusting to it situationally and avoiding drawing attention to it incase it excites the animal.

About: Loving pets since age 10! Experienced with newborn puppies, small dogs and cats, and caring for recovering kittens under veterinary guidance—with a heart full of love. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, but your furry family member will still receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care before and after work. I’m available after 5:00 PM most weekdays, after 3:30 PM on Thursdays, and after 2:00 PM on Saturdays and Sundays. Whether your pup, dog, cat, or kitten loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your beloved pet is a big decision. I will care for your fur baby with the same patience, compassion, and attention I’d give my own. I’ll follow their routine, provide fresh food and water, plenty of playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them), walks, litter box or potty care, and lots of love. I’ll also send regular photos and video updates, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving the care they deserve while you’re away.

Jamilah took care of our 2 cats for several days while we were on vacation! She treated them (and our home) so well. We loved the pics she sent after each visit-one of our cats can be very shy, but she clearly loved Jamilah right away! She also made sure our picky senior cat ate all his meals, which put our minds at ease.

Daniel is a Cat Whisperer! I have not left my cats since they were born in my home over 5 years ago. I had no idea if they would even eat while I was away? Daniel's vibe is one of peace and compassion and he had matters well in hand! Even Mercy showed great progress; Daniel helped her overcome her inherent anxiety.

We left for a holiday weekend trip and had Juntae check in on our furbabies while we were gone (two cats). We got tons of photos and the cutest 'report card' talking about how his relationship with them progressed over the days we were gone. Very flexible, thorough, and kind. Will absolutely be rebooking next time we leave on a trip!

Amanda is so great with animals. We have an extremely anxious cat that most other sitters never see, but came out for pets with her! Had she not taken pictures of the event, we probably wouldn't have believed it happened. She's responsible and accountable and we will definitely book Amanda again in the future.

Hadiya is wonderful! It's difficult to find someone you can trust with your fur babies and your home. As soon as we met Hadiya, we knew she was the right person. We have two shy kittens (other cat sitters had taken care of them for weeks at a time and never even saw them). But they warmed up to Hadiya almost instantly! We couldn't believe it. Hadiya is detailed oriented, reliable, thorough, and so sweet with our cats. She took the time to build their trust AND got all the care tasks done too. We can't recommend her enough.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Fern Rock

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fern Rock is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,545 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fern Rock. 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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fern Rock. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
