“Mara is extremely attentive to my Samoyed, Bianca🤍. Mara is always letting me know about her behaviors, her bathroom use, and her appetite. It is wonderful to have someone who cares so much taking care of Bianca🤍! Thank you Mara!”
“Nicole was absolutely fantastic with my Shepherd. She was super patient flexible and took great care of my dog needs. Will be seeing you again thank you so much.”
“I was so nervous about using Rover for the first time but Deborah was so nice and understanding. She sent me the cutest pictures and videos of my baby to let me know exactly what was going on everyday. She also went above and beyond and got my mail for me, took beretta for walks, and even cleaned the living room for me to return home. I could not recommend her more to anyone else!!”
“Kimmeth did daily visits with our two cats while we were out of town for a week. I can tell from her daily visit notes that she spent quality time interacting with our two cats and really got to know both of them. We very much appreciate that Kimmeth was available to help us, and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of pet sitting services.”
“Alexandra took excellent care of my kitty. She was punctual, very communicative, and sent lots of pictures throughout my trip. Most importantly, my cat was happy, healthy, and well cared for when I returned home. I would gladly book with her again.”
“Having a 16 year old blind and deaf dog we are reluctant to go away at all! Having a three week trip planned made us very nervous! Finding Robin has been a blessing. She provided such TLC that Oscar didn’t miss a beat!! Robin goes above and beyond and gives her heart to her four legged buddies! Thank you Robin!!”
“Billi provided an exceptional experience caring for my two cats, Mimi and Pin-get, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Mimi is my 9-year-old tuxedo cat and is normally very shy around new people, so I was amazed when she immediately felt comfortable with Billi during the meet and greet. That moment alone reassured me that Billi truly has a natural connection with animals. During each drop-in visit, Billi kept me consistently updated with photos and videos, which meant so much to me. Seeing Mimi happily sitting on her lap and watching both of my fur babies interacting comfortably with her made my heart smile and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Billi is professional, reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. She clearly takes the time to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Her communication and thoughtful updates made the entire experience stress-free. If you are looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pets as if they were her own, I highly recommend Billi. I will absolutely be booking her again for future visits with Mimi and Pin-get.”
“Estefania is amazing. She is very reliable came around the same time everyday. Was very communicable regarding my pet and sent lots of pictures. So happy to find such a good person to help me with my pets.”

“Marianne is SPECTACULAR!! She is so lovely and kind and sends wonderfully detailed updates! My grouchy cat was the best behaved I’ve seen her with Marianne! Thank you again! 😁”
“Taylor did an amazing job taking care of my 2 kittens. This was my first time using Rover so I did not know what to expect. However, Taylor communicated very efficiently the entire time and sent great photos to reassure me the babies were ok. The house looked the same way as I left it which means the little were also behaving thanks to Taylor’s visits. Would definitely rebook for another trip!”
“The best sitter I’ve ever had. She spent so much quality time with my Gib and I truly felt so comfortable being gone leaving my kitty in her hands. Thank you so much ❤️”
“Vadim is incredible you really can’t get much better than this. While he does so many things great what I appreciate the most is how responsive he is. Any time I needed something he was quick to answer. I was away for 2 weeks and he checked in on my Dog routinely. He also took care of medical issues with my Dog flawlessly. Thank you Vadim you are the best.”
“Sandy is the best! She is always on time, spends quality time with my fur baby and leaves my home nice and tidy after every visit. Sandy is truly a gem and I’m given the peace of mind when away from home!”
“Alyssa was incredible with the pups. I had a last minute trip and she came to the rescue in a short notice. Not only that, she went above and beyond with the 4 dogs and gave them all the care they needed. To my luck she is near by so I will be definitely using her services more often. Highly recommend 💯”
“Taylor went above and beyond! She is super communicative and responds quickly, and helped me out with some tasks around the house, including communicating with FPL! My cat has been in a bit of a shy period but she seems to have become very comfortable with Taylor, and Taylor sent me the cute pics to prove it! Thank you so much!”
“Alyssa did a fantastic job looking after our two cats! She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We were especially impressed that she won over our fickle ex-stray, who is usually very aloof and spends her time outdoors. It was clear our cats were comfortable and well cared for, and we’d be happy to have Alyssa watch them again!”

Marcos took great care of my mom’s cats while we were away. He was attentive, kind, and very reliable throughout the entire booking. He made sure the cats were well cared for, sent plenty of photos and updates, and was always quick to respond whenever I reached out with a question. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing the cats were being looked after by someone responsible and caring. Everything was done exactly as promised, and the communication was excellent from start to finish. We would absolutely book with Marcos again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.
This was my first time with a cat sitter and Gary put me at so much ease. I trusted his judgement, but he checked in when he had direct questions about something I might have forgotten. I didnt understand the Rover check in messages at first but came to really look forward to pics and updates about my girls. He was also soooooo good with my girls. I have two cats. One is usually a little shy at first and takes time to approach people. But she was very comfortable rolling over and slow blinking for gary within 10 minutes of him stepping into my apartment. It was comforting knowing my girls were enjoying some parts of my time away with Gary there to provide them some comfort and company.
Karen always goes above and beyond! Our sweet girl is disabled (Manx syndrome) and has very unique care needs, and we always feel completely comfortable leaving Tilly in Karen’s care. We can’t recommend her enough. It’s very evident through the care she provides and the work she does just how much she loves animals 🐈⬛🐈

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fort Lauderdale on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,103 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fort Lauderdale. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Lauderdale. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
