Kimberly did a spectacular job watching our cats. She saved all the worry we typically have when we leave our pets home while away. I recommend Kimberly to anyone who needs pet sitting!

Taylor was absolutely incredible with our two cats from daily updates to pictures. Our one cat has diabetes needing insulin twice a day. She came for a meet and greet and was absolutely wonderful with both our cats. I would highly recommended Taylor especially if you have animals with medical conditions!

Jennifer was excellent, especially when it came to meeting my 12 year-old fear reactive Australian Sheppard. We took the meet and greet slow to make sure everyone was comfortable. It worked because their first check-in visit went very well.

Turin did an amazing job with our cat Noah! For the first time we left him for 10 days and felt a bit uneasy about it, but Turin took great care of him. She sent pictures daily so we always felt comfortable and Noah seems to have taken a quick liking as he was even photographed on her lap! Thanks so much Turin! Highly recommended and whenever we go away again I will be sure to call you.

Tammie was an absolute lifesaver while I was on vacation! She came three times a day to care for my cat, including administering oral medication, which can be a challenge—but she handled it with total professionalism and care. She was always on time, incredibly communicative, and sent regular updates that really helped me relax while I was away. When our flight was unexpectedly delayed, she didn’t hesitate to make additional last-minute visits to make sure my cat was safe and comfortable. Her flexibility and dedication truly went above and beyond. It’s such a relief to know my pet is in such capable and compassionate hands. I will 100% be booking with Tammie again and can’t recommend her highly enough!

About: I have taken care of family animals my entire life & recently rescued my current dog three years ago. I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I am happy to do a meet and greet to make sure we are a good match :) I WFH several times a week so I can be available on different days / times! When I work from home I am able to do multiple walks / drop in visits a day In / from your home I will provide long walks in nearby parks / the sidewalk, play catch, and explore. If you have a fenced in yard or common area and prefer your doggo play there, that’s great as well

About: I've had pets since I was born and have always cared deeply for their happiness and health. I've been asked by many friends, family and acquaintances to watch their animals and have always done a wonderful job. Part of what makes me good at it is that I genuinely love each pet I take care of, even if I only see them once. Also can administer medication’s and have experience with giving insulin shots. I’m currently working but retiring in June 2026, but I can try to accommodate as best as possible until then… after that I will have an open schedule. I can do drop-in visits to walk, feed, give medication and play with your pets while you are away. I will treat your pets as though they are my own.

Kathryn was great. She willingly agreed to take care of my girls at 5 am. She arrived earlier than expected knowing my dogs need a little extra love and sent me a lot of pictures. We will definitely use Kathryn again to help care for my 11 year old pups.

This was the first time I used Rover or needed a sitter at all. I found Brenda and Francis and communicated shortly and set up a meeting day. Brenda came by and we hit it off. She's an animal lover, very caring and genuine. All throughout my time away, she was always reachable. Went the extra mile with maintaining the space my cats live in. And I even needed her to do some trouble shooting with the cameras in my house ( cats are fun ) . I will definitely be reaching out in the future to have this duo check in on my babies again. Trustworthy, responsible, and caring.

About: Hello! We’re Chris and Melissa, and we’d love to welcome your pup into our home! 🐾 We’re a dog-loving family with two friendly dogs of our own and a two-year-old, so we’re a great fit for pups who are comfortable around children and other dogs. We have a fully fenced yard in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood, and someone is always home, so your dog will get plenty of attention and won’t be left alone for long stretches. We love taking our dogs for walks, spending time outside, giving lots of belly rubs, and, of course, spoiling them with treats! When your dog stays with us, they’re truly part of the family. We’ll do our best to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine while you’re away. ❤️ And honestly, most of our furry guests seem to have such a good time that they don’t want to leave! We can’t wait to meet you and your pup! 🐶 Our Daily Routine Your pup will be part of our family’s daily routine while they’re with us! We have a flexible schedule and someone is typically home, so they’ll receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. We’ll make sure they get regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, outdoor time in our fenced yard, meals and treats according to their usual schedule, and lots of love and attention. We’re happy to follow your pup’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home. Every dog is different, so we’ll adjust their day based on their individual needs, energy level, and personality. Our goal is for your pup to feel safe, happy, and completely cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. Our home is located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood that’s great for walks. Dogs will have regular potty breaks throughout the day, typically every few hours, along with opportunities for play and outdoor time. We’ll always keep a close eye on the dogs while they’re outside and make sure they’re comfortable and supervised. Your dog will also be staying in a home where someone is typically present, so they’ll have plenty of companionship and attention throughout their stay. We’ll follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and any special needs to help your pup feel safe and settled. We treat every dog in our care like one of our own and want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pup is being well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my own pets since I was 10. I also worked at a dog kennel and as a dog grooming assistant when I was younger, and I’ve dog-sat for other families. These experiences taught me how to safely handle dogs, help with bathing, and keep them calm and comfortable in new places. What makes me different from many sitters is my experience with senior, disabled, and recovering dogs. I’ve cared for pets after surgery and illness, including staying up overnight to watch them, hand-feeding, helping them move around, and gently taking them outside. I also cared for my disabled Lab whose back legs didn’t work, helping with bathroom needs, cleaning, and daily comfort. Because of this, I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who need extra help, medications, or a slower pace. I treat every dog like family and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I complete my schoolwork through flexible online classes, which allows me to be home most of the day. Because of this, I’m able to give pets frequent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I’m used to caring for pets as part of my daily routine at home, including feeding, cleaning, and making sure they are comfortable and safe. This flexible schedule allows me to be reliable and fully present for the pets in my care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get walks or potty breaks, and receive lots of attention and playtime. I also give any medications if needed and keep their space clean. I respect the client’s home and keep everything tidy, including cleaning up pet messes, washing bowls if needed, and making sure doors and gates stay secure. I send updates and photos so owners know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and cared for while their family is away.

About: Experienced pet sitter and animal lover. I've worked in animal rescue, done trap-neuter-release, cared for a colony of feral cats for a decade, and fostered more kittens and adult cats than I can count. I offer visits, walks, overnight stays, or I can live at your house while you are away. I am a nature and wildlife photographer so I have gotten to know, to one degree or the other, all of the animals around my home, which, I believe, helps to make me comfortable with all types of pets. I also offer pet portraits! I have experience with all of the usual pets, plus a few unusual ones too. I will take good care of your dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small animals and even tarantulas or insects. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and I will let you know how the visits are going. Your pets will be safe and well cared for with me. I have a regular part time job with a flexible schedule so can be available just about anytime. Let me know what you need and we can work it out. Home visits run about a 1/2 an hour and include, depending upon your pet, a walk, poop scoop, litter box cleaning, feeding, watering and treat dispensing, and pats and cuddles.

This is the first time I have left my boys in the care of someone other than family and I couldn’t be happier. Ashley was not only quick to respond (which is important to me) , but also left me with such peace of mind. She sent me pictures and went the extra step to make sure I felt comfortable. I highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 1,336 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Franklin. 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 Franklin. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.
