“Sarah was wonderful! She spent the hour taking excellent care of my cats, including playing with them with their favorite toys. She sent wonderful pictures and videos, and I will be booking with her again!”
“This was our first time having Madalyne watch our three kitties. We have a few shy cats and they managed to come out for Madalyne which was really amazing. She took really good care of everybody and sent some pictures. I would highly recommend.”
“Carla did a great job watching our three cats. We had a tougher situation needing to separate one from the others but she did an excellent job communicating with us how they were doing and spending time with them!”
About: I have 1 cat at home and my partner has 1 dog who basically acts like a cat, so I am looking for an excuse to be around dogs (preferably <25 lbs) who may need some company. Friends and family have entrusted me with their pets for years (both for walks and overnight stays) and I take that responsibility incredibly seriously. I have a full-time hybrid position that has me at home on Mondays and Fridays with some flexibility from Tuesday - Thursday. On days when I am in the office, I will be home before 4:30pm for any afternoon feeding times. I am also available on weekends with advanced notice. I have a large unfenced yard and live less than a block away from a dedicated dog park. I have one small dog (15 lbs) and one cat who are happy to keep your pet company or can be kept in a different part of the house depending on your needs.
“Hannah was incredibly attentive and responsible while taking care of Delta during our time away. She kept the litter box and food bowls clean, and we really appreciated the thoughtful care she provided. We’d be more than happy to book with Hannah again in the future!”

Please feel free to contact me with any questions! I look forward to meeting your furry loved ones. I’m currently working remote, with one day in the office so I am able to do frequent bathroom breaks and afternoon walks. My husband is able to assist with care on my days in office.

About: I currently have a senior dog and a cat so I’ve had a broad range of experience with different ages of pets. I’m accustomed to giving animals medications as well as catering to an animals needs such as diet or activity level. I love all pets equally so whatever they need, I’ll give them! I currently work part time while I am finishing school. I am free during the week on Wednesday and Friday as well as weekends for walks or during the day check ins.

Whether it’s going on a walk or simply being a person to share the room with, I want your pets to have the best time possible.
“Autumn took good care of our 3 cats, even though they hid from her during each visit. I expected that from our formerly feral bunch. They were happy and healthy when we returned.”
About: I’ve raised and taken care of my own pets, friends and neighbors over the years. I work from home where I run my business and would be happy to attend to your fur babies. My home has a fenced in backyard and we also have a very walkable neighborhood. Our community is very safe and clean as well as my house. Our basement is the perfect indoor space for pets of any size so they can have their very own room in the house, but of course they are welcome anywhere. I create my own schedule and work from my house. I miss having a pet around when I’m not traveling so find this as a happy alternative. Whatever accommodations your pet needs I can provide it. We have space indoors and outdoors for any pet and I pride myself on being a very attentive caregiver.

About: Hi, I’m Andrea! 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years, from tiny kittens to senior pups who need a little extra TLC.

You can count on me for reliable communication, daily updates, and lots of cute photos while you’re gone.
“Great sitter! Katherine was communicative and did great with my cat Luna who is normally pretty skittish around new people. I felt confident that my cat would be taken care of well during the time I was away.”

About: After caring others pets to my own, I realize that no two furbabies are the same. Some require more patience and attention, while others need their freedom and a guiding hand. I am here to offer all of that! I have always been a dog and cat person. Growing up, I had a sweet little guinea pig since we didn't have the room for something bigger. However, he was never just a pet, he was a part of my family. I always think about him when caring for other people's pets. Over the years, I have cared for cats, walked dogs, and even housed a few pets for a short time (although, one of my relatives is rather allergic so I cannot offer that service anymore). I cannot wait to connect with more animals! I am currently a student at Oakland Community College pursuing a career in computer science. Most of my Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday's are crammed with classes in the afternoon. However, I have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings. The rest of the days are free. Regardless of what animal you share your home with their everyday messes are inevitable. I like to keep them in a happy and clean environment at all times. Their physical and mental health is always my priority.
“I would HIGHLY recommend Ciara to anyone looking for pet care of any kind. She takes such amazing care of Angel everytime I board with her. I get lots of pictures and video updates of her and she is played with and watched 24/7. I trust her fully and she treats my cat as if it were her own. Ciara goes above and beyond any pet sitter I’ve had. Angel & I will miss you in Nashville!”
About: Hi! My name is Coryn. I am currently a 4th year medical school student in my clinical rotations here in Michigan. I have had 25+ years experience with taken care of dogs. I have cared for my family's dog for many years while growing up whether it be as big as a Bernese Mountain Dog, Great Pyrenees, or as small as a Scottish terrier. I have had a dog of my own but has unfortunately passed on to the rainbow bridge at 11 years old. I have now had 2-3 years of experience watching dogs a few years ago before I started medical school and took a hiatus. I am back to hopefully help my community with dog sitting or walking. I love dogs and am comfortable with any dog you bring my way. I can play with your dog and take them on many walks and play with them outside either at the dog park or the state park. I have a welcoming apartment home for your pet to stay if needed. I am able to watch your pet full time. There will either be me or my husband at home to take care of your pet 24/7. I am highly compassionate, sensitive to needs, and have 100% attention to the pets I take care of. I make sure your pet gets all their needs taken care of whether it be to go outside for potty time, walking, or play and if they are hungry or just need a treat.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy being a calm, caring presence in their day—whether that’s for a visit, a walk, or time spent in my home. I work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. I have a friendly 20 lb doodle named Teddy, who’s great at reading other dogs. He’s happy to play or just relax, depending on what your dog prefers. I also have Violet, my sweet 12-year-old doodle, who has fully embraced her “retired lady” era and mostly spends her days napping in cozy spots around the house. At home, there’s a large, fully fenced yard with shady spots and plenty of space for fetch, sniffing, or lounging. I provide treats (with your approval), playtime, and lots of love. You’ll get photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing and what adventures they’ve been on. I’m always easy to reach if you want to check in. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and visits throughout the day, give pets consistent attention, and adjust timing based on their needs and your preferences. I make sure every pet has fresh water, a clean and comfortable space, and plenty of attention. After walks, I’ll dry off paws if it’s wet outside and check that they’re clean and settled. I follow your routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, playtime, and any specific instructions—so your pet feels relaxed, happy, and at home whether they’re with me or in your space.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Franklin
Emily took perfect care of my kitties and did everything I asked. She gave me thorough updates and even cleaned up their messes. They don’t like strangers and they were out playing with her and trusting her to give treats during visits. I plan on booking her again! 🤗
Lizzi was awesome. This was our first time leaving our super social under 1 year old kitten and I was really nervous. It was so great seeing updates of Zuzu happily playing, sleeping, eating and drinking.. being her happy self while we were away. Lizzi’s communication and kindness made this all a really easy experience for each of us when usually leaving a pet for the first time is very anxiety inducing. Lizzi is exactly the person I was looking for to take perfect care of Zuzu while we were away. That lextra level of attention and care that goes beyond being in a safe place and being fed, but truly knowing that someone with experience and compassion has their best interest at heart.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Franklin is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $56 per visit.

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.

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.
