“Lenny is great! She is my go to sitter for cats/dogs (5 total) every time we are out of town. This time it was just 2 cats as we took dogs with us but she did everything according to instructions and even went above and beyond when asked to water plants outside. Always, can rely on her for my animals to be well taken care off!”

“I’m so grateful I found Melissa on Rover! My original sitter ended up going out of town, so I needed someone to take care of Iggy while I was away. She was incredibly helpful and made the whole process so easy, especially as someone who is new to Rover! She was amazing about sending pictures, videos, and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. Iggy is normally super shy and loves to hide, but he was SO happy and welcoming with Melissa, which made me feel even better knowing he was in great hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter!”

About: I regularly watch my brothers dog and take him on walks. I also have watched multiple friends dogs throughout the years including walks, feedings, boarding. My schedule is open during typical work hours, so I’m available to do feedings and walks throughout the day. I don’t have my own pets but watch friends pets often. I have both boarded pets and stayed at clients homes. I follow typical instructions and routines as provided by the owners and send regular updates. Usually become best buddies by the end!

“Cynthia was an incredible cat sitter to my two kitties for the week and a half we were away. She was extremely thorough in her notes on my cats and made sure that they got the love and attention they needed every day. She also took excellent care of my senior kitty who she monitored closely to make sure he was doing okay, even providing him special care as needed. Super communicative and friendly. Would gladly recommend to anyone needing a cat sitter :)”

About: About Me / Pet Care Experience I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet with the same patience, attention, and love I would want for my own. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I’m comfortable providing walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, litter box care, basic medication administration, and maintaining a pet’s normal routine. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet is doing well. I have experience caring for pets and understand how important consistency, patience, and following an owner's instructions are. I take pet care seriously and always make their safety and well-being my priority. I currently have a flexible schedule and am able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m especially happy to discuss each pet’s individual routine, including how much exercise, playtime, companionship, or quiet time they need. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I'm available for drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, litter box cleaning, and lots of love and attention while you're away. I've cared for a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and birds, and I treat every pet like family. I carefully follow each owner's instructions, keep pets safe and comfortable, maintain clean food and litter areas, and provide plenty of affection, playtime, and updates with photos so you have peace of mind.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Fort Hunt

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fort Hunt is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $29 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,184 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fort Hunt. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Hunt. On Rover:

  • 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 87% can help with daily exercise

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.
