“I booked Laurelyn, last minute booking to help me with my litter box issue as I am 3 hours away from home, and she was BEYOND HELPFUL! Asked her to fix the litter box and she even went ahead cleaned up the litter outside the box, changed my kitties litter and refilled their water! Beyond greatful she was able to help so last minute. Will definitely rebook in the future if I ever am out of town!”
“Sophia was able to help us when a trip came up last minute. Birds can be tricky but she provided him great care and kept his cage clean. We are so appreciative she stepped up and learned all she could about his care before we left town.”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life — I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and know firsthand what it means to love a pet like family. Over the past two years, I’ve had the joy of regularly pet sitting for two rescue dogs, giving them the patience, comfort, and care they deserve. I also look after a close friend’s pets and check in on a cat whenever her owner is away on weekend trips. Whether your pet needs a walk, a sleepover, or just some company while you’re gone, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. Your furry family members are in good hands! I work part-time at my own business, which gives me the flexibility throughout the week to step away and check in on your pets whenever needed. I’m also available on weekends for house sitting and dog walking, making it easy to accommodate your schedule — whether it’s a quick weekday visit or a full weekend stay. You can count on me to be there when it matters most! I follow your pet’s routine — feeding schedules, medications, walks and playtime for dogs. For cats, I provide in-home care, litter cleaning and feedings.
“Maecy was right on time and very professional and observant. She had a concern about our fireplace. And wasn't familiar with gas fireplaces. She spotted the pilot light and was concerned it may be abnormal. Reached out to me and her fathervwho explained it was perfectly normal. Rather error on the cautious side than not. Will definitely ask her back again.”
About: I have owned and lived with a variety of animals. From dogs , cats, birds. I worked also at a pet store where I handled turtles, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I had my hands full caring for these animals ensuring they went to the right homes. The only animal I get nervous about is a snake. I have raised my own corgi from eight weeks old to his three year-old self as well as I have cared for my families elderly dogs up until they passed. I do not shy away from a pet regardless of age. The reason I decided to join rover was to meet and learn more about other breeds of dogs and cats.I have always wanted so many animals and working on rover will curb my need for more babies of my own. (Although I will treat your babies like they are my own.) I do work full-time 8 to 5 Monday through Friday. However, I am available before, after and during lunches if necessary or possible. This will also depending on location for lunch time check ins. I do have two pets of my own, however I can be flexible. And will work with you all the way. My dogs are fed twice a day. They’re given a multivitamin and a hip supplement. As both dogs are prone to hip dysplasia. I typically try to come home during lunch to let them out in the middle of the day however they are house trained up to eight hours. They have unlimited amounts of water. As for my clients home, I would follow strict instructions on how their pets would want to be taken care of whether it be mid day potty breaks or walks. If medication is needed, I would follow instructions on when those would be administered. I understand some animals are skittish of new people. I typically will leave them be let them get used to me and do what I can to ensure they are safe and taken care of.
“Tifffany was great and took care of Sherbert like he was her own, she provided daily updates and even let me know that Sherbert was sick and cared for him. If you ever need a sitter I would 100% recommend tiffany to you and I would love to use her again!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.

“Thank you very much Brittny. It was so nice to travel and not worry. You were detailed and lovely with our cats. We can always travel and count on you (hopefully you’ll be available) knowing that you’ll love on our fur babies. Great and pleasant service!”
About: I have been taking care of all kinds of animals from dogs and cats to birds and horses since I was a young girl. My neighbors have trusted me with pet care for years. I most recently have been working for a pet sitting company in North Carolina before moving to Virginia and received multiple five star reviews. I can assure you your pets will be well taken care of as I treat them as they are my own. I currently have a full time job with two to three full days off and lots of flexibility during the mornings and late evenings to stop in and do visits. I care for pets in my client’s home and I treat them as my own by making sure they get plenty of attention and playtime. I will take care of the animal’s needs like they are my pets keeping their health and safety my priority.
“It’s been a crazy summer but Autumn has helped to make sure I don’t have to worry about whose going to take care of my cat, Ana. She’s always ready to help, even though sometimes I give short notice she always comes through. I still have 4 more trips this summer and I wouldn’t even think about booking anyone else. Thanks again Autumn!”

Ashley did such an amazing job taking care of our 2 cats, Nala & Luna!! She followed my instructions for their meds & food to a T! Both cats loved her & enjoyed their extra attention, treats, & playtime while we were away for a week! Ashley also brought any mail or packages in & took our trash & recycle out to the curb on pickup day. I thoroughly enjoyed all the updates & pictures at every drop in visit! We will definitely be having Ashley watch Nala & Luna again!! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fort Monroe is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 350 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fort Monroe. 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.

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.
