“We LOVE Tracy. My cats, well at least 4 of the 5, took to her immediately (one cat is just stand-offish). Professional, timely & friendly plus Tracy has been willing to go way beyond the call of duty, which is much appreciated.”
“Nichelle was AHMAZING! Decades of caring for animals professionally and a love of animals personally, I had zero concerns. She showed love and patience for my scaredy-cat, and was rewarded with cuddles by the end of the stay. Excellent for mil families- no issues with getting her a pass. I would highly recommend her, just not for the same dates as me! Loved how Rover would send an update daily along with pictures and a narrative of how the day went. Love, love, love!!”
“Taylor was great! We were worried about leaving our cats for so long, but she kept us in the loop the entire time. One of our cats needs to be medicated twice a day and it seems like she was well taken care of. Very glad to have found Taylor.”
“We used Rover.com for the first time over the Christmas holiday. We needed someone to care for our cat, Cabernet, once a day in our home while we were out of town. We were fortunate enough to get Kelsey J. for our person! The first time meeting her we knew she would do a great job and she didn’t disappoint. Each day she would send us pictures so we could see he was just fine. Kelsey was thorough, trustworthy, and did an outstanding job. Any time we need a cat sitter again, she will be the one we request and will hope she’s available! We thank Kelsey and thank Rover for providing such a valuable service. We appreciate it so much!”
“Victoria took wonderful care of our cat while we were away and is extremely communicative, courteous, and professional. I wholeheartedly endorse Victoria for any animal care needs and look forward to having her back to take care of our kitty!”
“Grace is very sweet and very good with cats! She was able to get our anxious cat out of hiding one of the days, which NEVER happens!! Was very happy, we'll definitely try to book her again for our next trip!”
“Josie was so patient with my dog Nori who can be anxious at first. She showed up when expected, played plenty of ball with our dog and even got the cats to come out! Will definitely use Josie again!”
“Christen was great! She checked in on my cat Christopher several times while I was out of town. Each time, she made sure his litter, food, and water were in good order, took several pictures, and provided a nice write up. Chris is normally fairly shy, but he seemed to warm up to her pretty quickly. Christen was also great at communicating—she always gave me a heads when needed. I'd definitely recommend her!”
“Dakota is awesome!! He was always quick to respond to my messages and he made sure to keep me up to speed with what my cats we’re doing. I will definitely rebook with him in the future!!”
“Cambrye did a few drop in visits for us recently and it went perfectly and was a piece of cake. She’s super sweet, easy going and took great care of Miller. I highly recommend her as a great Rover sitter and will for sure use her again.”
“I loved having Anna watch my kittens! She sent updates and really understood my pet anxiety! I have a specific way I give them their supplements and meds in the morning and she followed everything to a tee! I’d recommend her and definitely will rebook!”
About: I have had family pets since childhood. As an adult I have always had one or two dogs at a time. I’m the friend of my friend group who is always down to watch their pets while they are out of town. I love all animals and want them all happy and safe. :) I’m currently on a job hunt so I’m extra flexible and available! I was (and hope to continue) working from home which was very helpful to be flexible to accomodate watching pets at different times throughout the week. Feel free to provide detailed instructions on the care for your pet! I understand how important routines are especially in special circumstances for some pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, geckos, snakes, including FERRETS, and many more! I’ve been responsible for cats and dogs within my family since I was 13. I fed, changed litters, fetched, gave love and kisses. Snake, I was 12. I had a BOA snake. I always watched my mother feed the snake, loved to play with it, & gave it love. Many of my friends have lizards (even bearded ones), hamsters, rabbits, FARM animals (of course, followed by instructions), and many more!! And the ferret I rescued passed last year. I will love ANY animals. I’m right here to help if no one will take care, not just for dogs and cats. I’m right here! ❤️🐾 🐾 I have mostly experience in taking care of (definitely not every animal, tho), taking care of them. I love them! Yes! I feed exotic animals with no issues. I'm sure this wild part of who I am is with animals, exotic animals, and FARM animals, definitely apart from many people, perhaps. I enjoy pets, willing to take out for a walk, or to housesitting. I make friends with pets, even with aggressive ones. Easy to show no fear. Maybe I'll become a trainer one day. The home I’m staying at is not my home, but I can take care of your animals at yours, I love to play what they play. Dogs can fetch in the backyard or the dog park close by. Cats, I like to play with sticks to earn their trust. !!!!!!! ***I have no fear of any type of home animals*** !!!!!!!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Forest Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 655 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 .

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
