“Taylor was truly the first cat sitter I’ve had that made me feel comfortable and confident with leaving my babies! She went above and beyond with them and would send me the best photos and paragraphs about her visit with me! I will absolutely be using Taylor again when I go out of town!”
“Mabry is the best! I never have to worry about leaving when I know my pet is in her care. She is always sure to communicate with me to let me know how they are doing and she sends me photos during her visits of my pets to ease my paranoid mom heart while I'm away.”
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals throughout my life. I have had a dog and a cat and I’m comfortable around all animals. I have a gentle personality and get along with all pets! I have plenty of time during my weeks to play with pets! I am currently looking for a music industry job in the area and would love to help out the community in the meantime! I am comfortable playing with, caring for, and interacting with all animals. I have a fenced in yard and always love the company of a furry friend.
“Shane is an absolute delight. She was so good with Frank the King of Cats. Cared for him, played with him and was such a blessing to know he was in good hands. She left my house spotless! Thank you”
“Liza did excellent. Was away for a week and you know how nerve racking that can be leaving your pup with a stranger. Liza showed up on time and shared pics and videos of our Mia the whole time. Mia was happy and well taken care of when we got back. I will use Liza again with no worries.”
“Cheryl is fantastic! Prior to our trip, she stopped by to meet our cats and learn their schedule and preferences. We have 2 cats and one has a congenital heart condition (HCM) who takes medication twice a day. He can be a challenge to medicate but Cheryl was so patient and managed to get him to take his meds every single time. She also gave lots of attention, play time, and really went the extra mile to form a bond with our boys. I know she made them feel safe and well cared for as they were looking around for her after we got home 😂 She sent updates with eveey visit and really great photos (which we loved). Everything was so clean as well (our cats are messy!) Will definitely book her for our future trips. 10/10. Absolutely book with her if she is available!”
About: Have had pets most of my life. Had a Boston Terrier that walked 5+ miles a day. Have walked friends Boxers, doxies, Scottish Terriers and a coonhound mix. I work from home and have flexibility. If there’s a set time that your dog is used to walking, I will do my best to stick to their routine. We will need to discuss your pets habits & how/if I can be a fit for their habits. Typically will walk 30 minutes or let out back, clean up after them & let them back inside. And if crated, place them back in their crate.
“Sahara did a great job keeping my old kitty happy for a week while I was out of town. She is really good at communicating and kept me updated for the whole week. Thanks Sahara!”
About: I’ve been house sitting, pet sitting, and babysitting for nearly 15 years. I have plenty of references and pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and flexible to fit your needs. As a self-employed professional, pet care naturally fits into my everyday routine—allowing me to provide consistent, attentive, and flexible care throughout the day. Your pets aren’t squeezed into a busy schedule—they’re part of it. I have a fenced in backyard. I am very vigilant and attentive when it comes to animals. Very trustworthy and have plenty of references that I can provide.
“Tiana is amazing with our fur babies! We have used her multiple times for our four animals and she is so great with them. She always makes sure they’ve finished meals and pottied during her visits and put my mind at such ease when we’ve gone out of town. She even learned how to give our diabetic cat insulin so we didn’t have to board her on our trips! Highly recommend Tiana!”
“Gray was so incredible with our boys! They seemed so happy with her taking care of them and she sent the best photos and updates during our time away! We will definitely be booking her again for our boys during our next vacation! Thank you, Gray!!”
“Ashley was really nice about things. She got back with me promptly upon requesting a stay and also while she had my two cats. My babies are wild, so I definitely condone her for being able to handle them. I was coming back in town late, and I would’ve had to pick my cats up at like 2am. She allowed me to come in the afternoon the next morning; however I was charged for almost two days to be able to do this. That’s the only issue I had. I’ll for sure be booking again for my future vacations.”
About: Hey! Animals are my favorite!! I’m a full time pet sitter and part time realtor! I am available for daily walks and overnight house sitting too. I am really flexible and can help last minute. Just let me know what you need and we can make it work! Can do overnights too I will come to you. No problem. I have plenty of experience being in and out of homes. I have amazing common sense and I’m aware of our surroundings.
“Annalaura was able to visit my cat last minute after my other rover had to cancel and I appreciate her willingness to help out so last minute! Great communication and overall service.”
“Carla was an attentive sitter for our cat. She was punctual gave thorough care and was able to look after our kitty at the last minute when we had a death in the family that took us out of town. Our cat warmed up to her immediately. She even cleaned the food bowls and picked up mail and packages. I highly recommend Carla for your pet sitting needs.”

Thank you so much, Shane, for taking such great care of our cats, Mira and Luke! She completed 4 drop-in visits over two days and was incredibly reliable. We really appreciated the frequent updates and photos she sent, which made us feel completely at ease. Both Mira and Luke loved her! We would highly recommend Shane and will definitely ask her to watch them again next time.
Lauren has been such a huge help for me when I leave town with my sweet kitty… she genuinely cares for her and shows up when she is supposed to and I’m grateful for the little extras she does for me if I ask, and when i don’t, like watering my outside plants/flowers and brining in my packages. I highly recommend her!
Emily is absolutely amazing when she watches my two cats! They like to hide and gave her a scare once, but she always makes sure she has eyes on them and bribes them with treats. I try to make sure I always am able to book her specifically cause I know I’ll get a detailed update!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Franklin is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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.

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 .
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 , 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 .

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 , 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.
