“Lisa was very professional and respectful. She always sent me pictures of the visits and what my animals were doing. Through the app, Lisa always sent me notifications of when she visited and when the visits were over. This was especially important to me. I will definitely rebook her when I take another trip and recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I grew up on a small farm in the Maryland agricultural reserve and have experience caring for animals big and small, from dogs and cats to sheep and emus! You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and treat your pet like they’re my own. I’m grateful that my work schedule as an environmental scientist is flexible and remote. It’s easy for me to prioritize pet care to fit within your schedule. While caring for your pet, I promise to treat your home as well as your fur baby with care and respect. I love being outdoors and am happy to take your pet for lengthy walks whether or not you have a fenced in yard.
“Jasmine took great care of my fur babies and did a wonderful job keeping me informed on everything that happened alone with plenty of pictures. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”
“Ellen again did a fantastic job caring for our two cats. Initiative, superior service, excellent communications and genuine care for our pets are her trademarks and we wholeheartedly recommend Ellen to anyone who wants total peace of mind while traveling or being away! .”
“Felicitas did an amazing job taking care of my doggos. Both of them looked like they were loved and well taken cared of when we got home from vacation. My doggos loved her instantly and weren’t as stressed when we were gone.”
About: Hi! I've worked with a lot of different sizes and breeds, as well as different temperaments when it comes to dogs and cats. I can also administer medications and take care of exotic fish or other animals if needed. A little bit about me: I am a very calm, patient, and dependable person with 5 lovely dogs between my husband and I( I had 3 and he had 2 when we met!). I’m a former RN currently at home while finishing up my Doctorate. I would love to get back in to walking, drop-in visits, and recently decided to try out out doggy daycare. We have a nice big backyard! I am open to learning and providing your pup with any accommodations that they may need during my visits and/or their stay. I understand how important it is to make sure they feel safe and loved. Feel free to ask any questions. I look forward to working with you! *I do have a toddler at home most days, so it is important that your dog is friendly with children when considering doggy day care. She will not join me for drop on visits or walks! I do my best to provide service at the times requested. I am very dependable, however I may suggest an alternate time if there is a conflict. I will make it work! I am very organized and respectful when making a visit to a pet parents home. I also make sure doors are locked and light are off when I leave.
About: I have grown up around animals and always felt a connection with them! Truly, I like spending time with animals more than humans! I’ve had all types of pets and love taking care of them I am currently in school at ECPI Newport News, but I am very flexible with my times and days! I am very well organized and easily keep track of all my responsibilities I will not be housing pets at my house but more than happy to go to others to watch and take care of pets when needed
“Megan was AMAZING! Our pup can be stressed out with new people and we just lost our other pup, so he was extra stressed meeting someone new this time. Megan took her time with our baby and was so patient. She kept us informed and we are just so grateful that she cared so much! Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and love caring for pets of all kinds! I’ve helped care for stray cats and dogs growing up, have pet sitting experience, and I’m currently a cat mom myself. I’ll always make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away :) I work full-time, but I’m available after 5pm on weekdays and all day on weekends. I enjoy using my free time to care for pets, go on walks, and give them attention while owners are away. I live in an apartment with my own furbaby and I’m willing to go sit at your place or check in on the animals when needed.
“Ezgi is kind, responsible, and took great care of my cat, Fable, while we were out of town on short notice! She left my home clean, Fable happy and well-cared for, and Ezgi was responsive and easy to communicate with. I’d recommend her :)”
“Kat was amazing! She helped us with a last minute trip and was super accommodating with our scrambled planning. She took care of our kitty super well. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Kim was truly a lifesaver when I had to go out of town. I had to find a last minute dog sitter and she was available and came right over for a meet and greet. She took great care of my dog and cats! Some of them are senior pets and she was very accommodating to their needs and sent pictures as well. It is nice to be able to leave your pets with someone who is dependable and responsible and you don't have to worry. Thanks Kim!”
About: I have spent the better part of my life committed to the care of animals, I love them and hope to use my skills and innate passion to be a blessing to someone. I am currently working and going to school online so this provides me with a very flexible schedule with all oddities of availability for you and your pet. I have an extra large fenced in yard, live alone and have an amazing dachshund named, "Koko." He is an old boy and doesn't mind the company. I am a big advocate of cuddles, praise and sticking to training measures in place by an owner. I respect these animals and it really rewards me to see them happy, safe and healthy!
“Barbara was great, I felt so at ease while I was away from my cat Piper for the holidays. She was consistent and sent great pictures daily, with great communication throughout. Will definitely be booking her again”
“This was our first time using Rover or trusting anyone other than family with our pets. Shelbie immediately made us feel at ease with how attentive, professional and friendly she was with us and our pets. She was on top of everything and gave our pets quality care and love while we were gone! She provided thoughtful updates and helped our pets feel comfortable and come out of their shells. For the first time ever we were able to take a vacation and have peace of mind. I highly recommend her as a sitter!!”
“My children can’t even give this cat his insulin! Dalenne is amazing. I feel blessed to have found her. Hoping she can help my next trip! Thanks for asking Beth Pierce”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Monroe
Laurelyn treats our senior pet like she would her own. She’s really patient and took the time to get to know our cat. She sends lots of reassuring pictures and details about his mood, eating and bathroom habits if little changes come up. We really appreciate her.
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 for Cat Sitting in Fort Monroe 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 1,172 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 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 Monroe. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
