“Absolutely amazing pet sitter! I had to book last minute and extend with an additional visit - she was super accommodating. Sent lots of updates, photos, and actually interacted with my cats. My babies loved her and will definitely re-book in the future. 🐾”
About: I am very caring and compassionate for animals and pets. I have a cat of my own named Bruni and he is my best friend. Attentive and reliable pet care is assured with me as your pet sitter! I work as a teacher so my morning and afternoons are busy up until 3:30pm. However, I am available after those hours. I do have days off due to breaks, for example, winter break, where I can be reliable all day during those times. I have a cat of my own that I attend to 24/7. Therefore, I am very familiar with pets’ needs. I will assure you great communication and punctuality.
“Lauren was absolutely amazing watching my dogs for three days! From the moment we connected, she was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved on the entire time. She followed all instructions perfectly and treated them like her own. When I returned, everything was clean, organized, and my pups were calm and content — which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your fur babies, but Lauren exceeded every expectation. I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care. Thank you, Lauren! 🐾💛”
“Lexi is amazing! I was fortunate to find her in a last-minute situation, and she enthusiastically took on three drop-in visits with less than 24 hours’ notice. My timid rescue beagle warmed up to her immediately, she followed very specific instructions perfectly, and I will definitely be using her services again!”
About: I have raised 2 dogs since puppies until older age. I have experience with older dogs and puppies. Love them all. I have no pets at the moment so any pet I care for will receive lots of love. Love all pets I can provide care in the morning and afternoon. I am available for many services. I can walk pets, play with them, feed them, take them out, cuddle them, and give them love.

“Natalia was absolutely amazing. From our first message to her first meeting my dog and through her multiple drop-in visits while I was in the city for work, I was really impressed with her responsiveness and care for Archie. I rescued him a few months ago and work remotely, so this was the first time he'd had someone who wasn't me come to visit him, and he immediately warmed to her and was excited to see her. Natalia was prompt, followed all instructions clearly, and was great about letting me know when her visits started and sendig pictures of their time together. I will definitely be using Natalia again and can't recommend her enough!”
“Grace is such a fantastic cat sitter! She’s experienced with cat coupled with her friendly and approachable personality won the heart of our cat named Mr Miyagi. We highly recommend Grace, especially if you’re looking for a dependable, and professional cat sitter.”

About: Hi! I'm a dedicated pet lover and current cat owner/former dog owner who understands that leaving your pet in someone else's care requires trust. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you're away. As a cat owner, I'm experienced with daily feeding routines, playtime, litter box maintenance, and respecting each cat's unique personality and comfort level. I also grew up with dogs and have experience with walks, exercise, feeding, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I offer dog walking, cat drop-in visits, and house sitting services. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, your cat needs care and company at home, or you're looking for someone dependable to stay with your pets while you travel, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own pets. I know how important updates are when you're away, so you can expect regular communication, photos, and check-ins throughout my visits. I'm dependable, attentive to details, and committed to keeping your pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and help give you peace of mind while you're away! As a part-time worker, I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care, with availability for mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires a high level of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. When caring for pets in a client's home, I am respectful of personal property, follow all household instructions carefully, and maintain a professional, reliable presence at every visit. I prioritize the safety and well-being of both pets and their homes by ensuring doors, gates, and windows are secure, keeping living areas tidy, and adhering to any specific care routines provided by the owner. I communicate clearly and consistently, providing updates, photos, and prompt responses so pet parents can feel confident and informed while they are away. My goal is to create a positive experience built on trust, dependability, and respect, giving owners peace of mind that their pets and homes are being cared for responsibly.
“First time using Rover so I was a little apprehensive at first using a drop-in sitter. However, I found using Rover was a great experience and found Kimberly to be very professional at all times and be a fantastic pet sitter. She took wonderful care of my cat Kristy and I really appreciated the great photos, Rover card updates & follow-ups to any questions while I was away on vacation. I would absolutely have no hesitation about using Kimberly and Rover again. Great job!”
“Angelina did a fantastic job looking after out ancient and fragile whippet. She looked after his special needs perfectly. When our schedule changed unexpectedly she accommodated the changes easily. I will definitely have Angelina look after him again when I need someone.”
“Max was very helpful when I booked him last minute. He was on time for all of his visits, took great photos of our elderly dog and was extremely gently and kind. He definitely has a special touch for animals!”
“NaBeela took care of my 2 senior cats in my home while I was out of the country. She was kind, an awesome communicator, and easy to work with. Thank you for taking such great care of things and giving me peace of mind while I was away!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Forest View
Jessica kept us fully informed, with photos, about our cats every day she looked after them. We felt fully confident and reassured throughout. She also went above and beyond, attending to some pet-inspired messes (a vase knocked over, for example, spilling water everywhere) with the utmost care. We could not have been more pleased and gratified by Jessica’s dedication and skill and would recommend her without qualification.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Forest View on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,832 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Forest View. 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.
