“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!!”
About: I have 10 years of watching, bathing, and taking care of dogs. I definitely make sure that I give 125% whenever I take care of pets I can walk pets after I get off work at 6 and anytime during the day on the weekends. I can also watch pets over the weekend at a moments notice. I make sure that the safety of the pet is the priority whenever I watch the pet. I make sure that the animal is comfortable and knows that he/she can trust me.
“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!”
About: Growing up on land in Oklahoma, I've had experience with at least 30 dogs.... raising and caring for canines of all ages, breeds, and sizes; from a Chunky Chow-Chow, to a chattery Chihuahua... I understand dogs (and cats) very well. Whether it's 10 days, 10 months, or 10 years... Let's keep our pets happy while the'yre here! Over the summer my availability is generally pretty open. You can reach out the same day, but of course earlier is better. If you are in a situation where you need your pet walked, or cared for while you are away and it came about at the last minute, I can probably help you out. I learn the dog or cat I'm working with. Each pet is different even within the same breed. For dogs the day looks like a walk, some play, rubs, and their food and water if needed. For cats the day looks like butt scratches (when allowed), something stimulating, food, water, and peace 😽
“Amanda took great care of my 7 year old tortie cat Skyler! She was very responsive , followed the care instructions perfectly, sent pictures, was punctual, and spent extra time giving my cat lots of love! I will definitely be reaching out again to Amanda for pet sitting and would highly recommend her.”
“We highly recommend Nick! My dogs immediately took to him. He’s a calm and mature person who instinctively knows how to effectively handle pets and any situation. We will be using him for in-home pet care and more.”
“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!”
About: I grew up on a ranch and have been around dogs and cats my whole life. I’m reliable, active, and love caring for pets through walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or extra care while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own. I have a relatively flexible work schedule so I can swing by anytime prior to 8am, during lunch hours, and anytime after 5pm, Monday through Sunday. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they’re in my home or their own. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: A deep love and understanding of animals runs in my veins — my father is a veritable animal whisperer who passed on his love of fur babies to me. I grew up with multiple dogs in our house and personally believe pets thrive on attention, love, nurturing, and a stable schedule. The love, patience, kindness, gentleness, respect, and playfulness that comes so naturally when caring for a beloved pet is something I believe all animals deserve — and something I’m excited to shower on your fur babies! I appreciate a detailed list of eating/potty schedules, favorite toys/treats, appropriate cadence and frequency of walks, daily playtime, preferred vet, food specifics, medicine specifics, ANYTHING ELSE YOU CAN THINK OF TO MAKE THIS A FUN & RELAXING EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR PET. I work from home and I make my own schedule so I have all the flexibility needed for an awesome experience for your fur baby! I have a fenced-in yard with lots of room to run and play, as well as a covered patio for them to cool off. We spend most of our time outside, but if it’s raining or they just want to come in, we’ll hang out in the living room where I love playing interactive games — if the pup is up for it!

Also, I work from home most Mondays and would be available to drop in on your pets and take them on walks throughout the day! My weekends are free for whatever you need.

About: Hi there! I've grown up with dogs all my life. I currently have my rescue love pitbull Duke, and I've fostered dogs of many kinds through a local animal rescue sanctuary. I am comfortable with all dog breeds and sizes. I am happy to run with dogs or play games in the backyard. Just like humans, I believe it is important for dogs to get fresh air and exercise every day. I am happy to help meet this need for your best friend. My husband and I work full time but have flexible schedules. Our dog is let out every 4-6 hours so you can expect the same for yours. Our backyard is fenced, and our house is set up so that we can separate your dog from ours if they need time to decompress. Dogs are allowed on furniture if they mind their manners. No kids, smoking or toxic plants.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 635 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
