“Kerry has saved me multiple times now with last minute bookings and I always love the pictures she sends over of the cats during her visits. 10/10 Would recommend booking with Kerry!”
About: I have over 21 years experience caring for dogs and cats. Through my volunteer work at animal shelters and pet sitting for family and friends I have developed an understanding for pet care needs. I currently have open availability for drop ins for early mornings and late nights to accommodate for 3rd shift. I am avaliable on weekends and some holidays for drop ins and walks but, unfortunately at the moment I'm not available for over night stays or boarding. My schedule is open for most of the day except between 4PM-8PM during the week. When sitting in your home I ensure your pets safety and follow all your care routines. I make sure your fur baby is well taken care of and loved.
“Cecil was great! Our three cats are trouble makers but Cecil made it so that we didn’t have to worry about them while my husband and I were on our honeymoon! Will definitely be booking with Cecil in the future (:”
“Saniya was amazing and took perfect care of our cats 😸💕 they are very shy so them coming out to greet here during her time at our home was shows the great energy she has. 100% recommend her!”
About: Hi! My name is Tyson, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. Growing up with pets taught me early on how important patience, consistency, and love are when caring for animals. I currently work in childcare as a nanny and babysitter, and many of the families I work with also trust me with the care of their dogs inside their homes. Over the past seven years, I’ve gained experience caring for other people’s pets, including walking, feeding, bathing, nail trimming, and general grooming support. I also have my own Cane Corso at home, so I’m very comfortable handling large and strong breeds. Because of this, I’m confident managing leash pullers on walks and working with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I pay close attention to dog body language and always aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment for every pet in my care. I’m an active person and love engaging with dogs through walks, playtime, and enrichment so they stay happy and stimulated. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and has a great time while you’re away. I do childcare as far as being a nanny from 2:40 pm to 6 PM Monday through Friday so I am available anytime before or after that time. And I am available all weekend long. When caring for pets, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for just like they would with their owner. In a client’s home, I respect their routine as closely as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions to help the pet stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while you’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, supervised environment where they can relax and stay active. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, and I make sure every dog gets proper exercise, structured walks, and positive interaction. I always pay close attention to body language and behavior to ensure all pets are comfortable and stress-free. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident that their pet is happy and in good hands.
About: Hello! I’m Adreana and I've seen the nitty, the gritty, and the nasty...nothing can scare me away, trust me I volunteered for a shelter in college lol. In terms of my tangible experience, I've logged an immense amount of hours volunteering at animal shelters and pet-sitting for various friends and family. I'm a huge advocate for exercise and fitness for pets so if you leave your dog with me, I guarantee that we will be going on runs and playing outside. I have my own fur baby and she is my whole life, I’ve even opted out of having kids ?? doggies will do. I one day hope to own my own “no-kill” shelter. If you book me I promise your dog will thank you!
“Mary was an excellent cat-sitter ! She took great care of my cat Freya when I had to be out of town for 2 weeks, she fed and even played with her. I’m definitely coming home to a happy cat! ?”
“Dazia was respectful of my home and prompt on drop in days. She is not afraid to ask questions if she is unsure and sent very cute pictures of my furbaby.”
“Kristen was fantastic with our two indoor cats and was incredibly supportive of some separation needs we had with the two during this week. Meds, play, and even a few photos of our outdoor cat kept us informed and grateful. Thank you, Kristen!”
About: I am a lover of all animals and have cared for many throughout my years. I am a pet parent of a beautiful pit who's a year and a half old and full of love and energy. When it comes to sitting for other I treat them with the same patience and care as I do with my own My schedule is fairly open, since I am a jeweler and afterschool arts and crafts teacher, so my mornings and evenings are very flexible durning the week. Weekends are on the busier side but let me know a week and a half in advance and I can make the time Being an artist I am very much about the details, I love to know your pets eating routines/schedule, medication(if applicable), how long of a walk to go for, their favorite toy, and type of play. I am also very vigilant to ensure safety for your pet the way I would my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 3,215 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Forest Park. 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 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.
