“Amanda was a great sitter!! She was very attentive to my cat Buffy and she gave me very detailed updates about how she's doing each day. Her pictures were great and my cat loved her!”
About: My family has had many pets and I raised and took care of them all since I was a little kid. From Dogs, Cats, Ducks, and Parrots. I’ve done nail and beak clippings to just taking dogs for walks. I am currently a student athlete at Lipscomb University and love animals so I’m looking to make a little money on the side taking care of any pets. I take care of all my dogs and cats when I’m at home and throughout my childhood. I can feed, clean, or take dogs for walks.
About: Grew up with dogs my entire life, once I got a little older I used to watch my family friends animals all the time! Now in Nashville I help volunteer at wags and walks but I want to do more! I work remote for work so I have a flexible schedule that can adjust as needed. Im happy to snuggle with your animals or run around and play! I work remote so I am easily able to play with your animals or let them out and enjoy the fresh air for a little bit! I will follow any rules you may have for your animal. Im comfortable handling some bigger dogs on a leash or running around with them in your backyard. I've been around animals a lot so I know to pick up on if something may be wrong and will let you know right away!
About: Need a flexible, helping hand for your beloved fur-babies? I'm your gal! I grew up with dogs, and have years of experience pet-sitting for dogs, cats, rabbits, and even ferrets! :) I love all animals & open to new ones too (minus snakes). During the school year, I work FT at an elementary school, but I love to petsit during my summers off—but I am still available during the school year, after school hours and weekends. During the summer, I’m off of work (I work at an elementary school) so I’m flexible when it comes to dropping in or spending time with your pet! I'm available FT during July through the beginning of August, until school begins. After that, my availability changes to after school hours and weekends. Whether it’s a drop in for food, walks, or cuddles, or if your need is me staying overnight—I’m open! I am available to do drop ins or overnight stays with your pet, depending on your need. I’ve done both and can do multiple check-in for feedings, walks, etc. during the day. And/or staying overnight with them if you’re out of town!
About: What sets me apart is my unique blend of experience with both senior dogs and playful puppies. I understand the special care seniors need for comfort and health, while also providing the energetic training and socialization that puppies thrive on. Friends and family have trusted me to watch their fur children for years. My passion for dogs ensures that each furry friend receives personalized attention and love tailored to their age and needs. I currently am not working and caring for my toddler. I have more than enough time to fit in caring for your precious furry friend. I love all animals and know how important a routine is. I am happy to help in any way I can. In my home, we have a senior dog, senior cat and a younger cat. They are such joys and fill our hearts with so much love. My senior dog is currently on medication administered daily, so I understand the importance of making sure timely medications occur. The cats share a litter box which is cleaned daily as well as shared food. I take my dog for a walk everyday for at least an hour.
About: There hasn’t even been a time in my life where I haven’t been surrounded by animals. I grew up on a farm with mostly dogs, but also chickens, a pony, goats, bunnies, cats, and turkeys. I love them all! I work every other week with my full time position so on my off weeks I am looking for something to do that I know I’ll enjoy and animals are a huge joy in my life. I’d love to take stress off a pet parent in knowing who is taking care of their babies is truly loving on them. I personally won’t be keeping animals at my own home, but will do whatever is needed at the clients home for their baby. I am super organized, detail oriented, and reliable.
“I hate leaving my older cat when I travel, and I can’t say enough how much it helps to know Ashley is visiting her each day. She does a wonderful job and really goes above and beyond. I’m so thankful! 🩷”
About: I’ve cared for pets since I was 12! I am accustomed to big and small dogs and cats as well, all with unique personalities and needs. I have time availability to watch pets during the day or late at night for overnights! I work a night job outside of pet sitting. I love to walk and play with pets and am accustomed to crating, feeding, medication managing, changing litter, etc! I cannot watch pets in my current home at this time, but am more than comfortable to stay in your home.
About: I was petsitting 3 German Shepards and 3 Maltipus paralel at the same time. I love dogs of any size, always been able to find a way to their hearts. I’m working part time Mon-Wed 2-8; Thu-Fri 5-8. Any time beside that works for me, I am down to petsit on Saturday. Can do early morning and late night. Taking pets for a walk, giving them food/water and a lot of the attention, playing with them and can take to vet appointments if needed
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for well over 10 years now. I have 1 dog that is a rescue, so I have experience with working with reactive, timid dogs. Growing up, I also had a dog with severe diabetes, so I am familiar with administering insulin shots as well. I work hybrid-remote, so the days I’ve listed as available for walks and drop-ins are super flexible and I’m happy to coordinate with customers to find the best times that fit their dog’s needs! I love it when pet owners leave me notes on the specific things their pets might need! I’m happy to follow all directions, regularly feed and take them out to the bathroom if necessary, and play with them/spend time with them!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Forest Hills 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.

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.

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 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.
