“Hannah did a great job with my cat Maisie! I didn’t have to worry a bit that she was being well cared for and I could tell from the photos that Maisie looked forward to Hannah’s visits!”

I can also offer morning and evening visits during the week. I’m happy to come to your home and give your pets the love, attention, exercise, food, potty breaks, and companionship they need while you’re away. 🐶🐱💕 I work Monday–Friday from 11:30 AM–8 PM, so I’m primarily available Saturday & Sunday. I can also offer morning and evening visits during the week! I will travel to your house to take care of your baby! I have animals myself so currently I do not provide boarding at my home. I will send pictures and updates if desired, and can take walks, travel to parks or just play at your house/back yard!

About: My parents used to breed dogs when I was growing up and I’ve always loved animals. I have multiple animals including dogs and cats that i absolutely adore!! I own a salon in downtown Sheffield and am very flexible with my time. Animals make me happy in my day to day life so i can’t wait to meet all new ones🥰 I can take them out when needed, play with them and make sure they get their exercise, give medicine if needed and prepare food, i can also just spend time with them if that’s what they need.

About: I have had pets and cared for animals since I was a child, giving me years of hands-on experience with both indoor and outdoor animals. Growing up on a farm allowed me to work closely with a variety of large animals as well as young and baby animals, helping me develop a strong understanding of animal care and responsibility. I am experienced in feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with animals while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My lifelong experience around animals has made me dependable, patient, and attentive to the unique needs and personalities of each pet. I am a third grade teacher and have a plenty of time off in the summers! I love animals and would love to have a part in taking care of your furry babies. I have a fenced in yard, plenty of acreage, and live on a safe drive with very minimal traffic. I take my dog for walks daily on our drive and we play in my backyard to get all of our energy out! I also can crate animals indoor and/or out with an extra large kennel in our fenced in yard!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Florence

If there were 10 stars, I would give them all to Lisa. She was amazing with my cat. I tell everyone that my cat is neurotic. She doesn't like anyone, even me a lot of the time. She bonded with Lisa right away. I think she is indeed the Cat Whisperer! She was so attentive. Not only did she send pictures from every visit but sweet notes about her visit. If she happen to be running a little late for her scheduled visits, she would let me know why. On her last day she even ran the vacuum and cleaned up so I wouldn't have to do it after my vacation. I highly recommend Lisa to take care of all of your fur babies. I didn't worry about my Callie one minute while I was gone. Lisa is precious and I was so blessed to have her with my kitty.

I could not recommend Lisa enough! I was gone for about a week and she took AMAZING care of my baby (cat lol). Her communication was great and Lincoln absolutely loved her! She went above and beyond to keep him happy and healthy, while keeping me updated in the process! Will definitely book with her again!

Tara is the best. I can tell my cat is happy and comfortable with her. She sends good photos, she scoops the litter every day, and she is very dependable. Yay Tara!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Florence

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Florence is $13 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $20 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 35 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Florence. 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 Florence. On Rover:

  • 90% 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 , 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.
