“Lisa was perfect and treated our cats so well during her drop ins. She was friendly and communicative during her drop ins and took lots of photos! We’d definitely invite her back to watch the cats again.”
“Hailey was excellent with my cat. No need for me to worry about a thing. She kept me informed and made sure everything was taken care. If you live in the area, I totally recommend Hailey.”
“Lila was on time everyday, no issues whatsoever. Out of my 3 cats, one can be difficult to deal with because she’s scared of everything. From what I saw Lila was actually able to get close to her. Very satisfied with her services.”
“Emma Rae was wonderful and we felt so comfortable leaving our cats in her care. She came to our home to meet our cats prior to our trip. We loved the pictures she sent of the 2 of them. this was our 1st experience with River and we feel so lucky to have connected with Emma Rae. We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
“Kailyn was so sweet to my two cats and took amazing care of them while I was on a trip. She provided lots of pictures, excellent updates, and was always on time for drop-in visits. Kailyn was awesome with communicating questions and getting back to me promptly. All of this meant that I was less stressed and I came home to two happy, calm cats. She is truly a cat whisperer! A big thank you and shout out to Kailyn!”
About: I've had pets my entire life as well as foster doggies! I have learned so much through fostering and the different types of care / attention pets need as well as experience with different breeds & ages. Looking to fit visits into my schedule while still working my full-time job as an event manager. Available for early morning visits as well as evenings! Willing to do walks, playtimes, meals, anything to make a furry friend comfortable while leaving them home. I have worked with all different sizes of dogs, from being a dog foster home and had a cat growing up as well as 2 of my own now!
“Adina does a fantastic job taking care of our kitties! She sends detailed updates after each visit that we always enjoy reading along with pictures of what they're up to while we're on vacation. It gives us peace of mind to know our furry kids are in such great hands while we're away.”
About: *** In MOST cases, I NEED to bring my dog with me for overnight stays. Please take that into consideration BEFORE you reach out to me. If you just need day time care I can be a bit more flexible on the above. Thank you for understanding. *** :) I love animals, but dogs have a special place in my heart. Your animals will be well cared for when I watch them. I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I have a dog of my own- an almost 3 year old German Shepherd-who would have to come with me while I sit for you. I know our pups will have tons of fun playing together! My goal is to try and treat your pets like my own. I will make pets feel cared for and loved, even when their owners are not there. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I typically have the most availability on weekends, but can also accommodate weekday care! I make sure to follow your pet’s routine, provide the care and exercise they need, and keep their environment safe and comfortable. My goal is for your pet to feel happy, secure, and well cared for while they’re in my care.
About: I have cared for dogs since I can remember! I wish I can adopt 20 dogs and give them a beautiful life but since I can’t, I have chosen this career instead. I can understand, communicate, listen and love your pet. It would be an honor to care for your four legged baby!!! I am recently in remission from cancer, extremely stable, and I make animals my full time job! I am free anytime! Day, night, weekends and weekdays I’m free to help! I would keep a clean environment, offer play time, pet time, cuddle time, meal time and long walks no matter what the weather conditions are like!!! Your pet will love me!
About: I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for cats throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends, and I can provide consistent feeding, litter cleaning, and playtime based on your cat’s normal routine. Because I focus on cat-only care, I maintain a calm and quiet environment without the stress of dogs. I’m also able to check in frequently, monitor behavior, and give extra attention to shy or senior cats that may need more patience. I provide a safe, quiet, and cat-friendly environment designed to reduce stress. Cats are kept indoors at all times, with secure doors and windows. I keep litter boxes clean, provide fresh water, and follow your feeding instructions carefully. I also separate cats when needed to ensure everyone feels comfortable, especially for shy or first-time guests. I take time to build trust with each cat and never force interaction. I monitor eating, behavior, and overall comfort, and I’ll send regular updates and photos. If caring for cats in a client’s home, I respect your space, follow all instructions closely, and make sure your cat’s routine stays consistent.
“Chris was great! Her communication was soo appreciated! I got pics everyday of my kitties. I was able to enjoy my vacation and will definitely use her services again!”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal lover who has worked hands on in an animal shelter for many years. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with medical needs, behavioral challenges, and special routines. I offer drop in visits, dog walks, house sitting, and boarding, with light grooming available for an additional fee. I’m comfortable giving medications, following detailed care instructions, and taking the extra time needed to make your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. For boarding, I do ask that dogs are cat tolerant. I have three medically challenged cats of my own and regularly foster cats and dogs, so my home is very animal focused and used to having furry visitors! Your pets will be treated like family, with plenty of attention, patience, and individualized care. 🐾❤️ Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life! I work as a Cattery Caretaker at an animal shelter, so I’m around animals and caring for them throughout my workday. Outside of work, I have my own cats and regularly foster cats and dogs, so I’m very used to making time for feeding, cleaning, medications, walks, enrichment, and giving each animal individual attention. Currently working Full time! I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely get outside time and play. I’m also comfortable following each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fontaine is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 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.

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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 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.
