“Went above and beyond and kept us up to date on everything that happened while we were gone. Left treats for my kitties and made it easy to get our key back from her. Very happy with her services. Will book again!!”
“Rachel went truly above and beyond- taking care of stuff she didn’t have to just because it helped me out (like cat vomit haha). It was such a relief to not have to worry while I was on the wrong continent. She must have been amazing with my cats too because my never-talks-to-anyone orange let her have pets! Thank you Rachel!!”
“Shyla was very reliable stopping in to care for my 6 cats. I didn't worry at all, except that 4 of them wouldn't come out of hiding when she came! That's not unusual, though. She left the house clean and in order. Everything was done properly. She was good at communicating with me and sent some cute pictures. I am so happy I found her and have another trip coming up, so I hope she is available! Shyla, please let me know if there is anything that would make your visits easier or if you have any suggestions for me. Thank you!”
About: Hi! I’m originally from Madison, WI and recently moved to franklin. I absolutely love all animals and have over 16 years of experience caring for them,especially cats and dogs! I’ve fostered cats for more than 3 years and currently volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I care for injured and orphaned animals. I’m also working toward a degree in Fish and Wildlife Science, so animals are truly a part of my daily life. I’m dependable, patient, and passionate about providing safe, loving care to all kinds of pets.whether they need snuggles, medication, or just someone to hang out with while you’re away! I work second shift, Monday to Thursday and some Fridays. I'm available until 2:00 pm and Fridays I'm either available all day or before noon. Perfect for those working first shift! I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely and make sure their home is treated with care. I keep feeding areas and litter boxes clean and tidy, and I’m respectful of the pet’s space and routine. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I create a calm, safe, and loving environment for your pets.
“Nicole was amazing!!! She took some of the best pictures of my cats and sent them every day, her communication skills were amazing and she went above and beyond caring for my cats and my home. I am amazed and so grateful to have found her. Ive had the best experience with her and I cant say enough!!”
“Kimberley was great. I had a last minute invite to my sister's house for thanksgiving. She was available on short notice and took great care of my kitties. She visited twice a day, and sent me pictures of every visit. My future travel plans will definitely start with a call to Kimberley to secure loving care for my babies!”
“Sarah was amazing!! She checked in on our cat while we were gone and our cat absolutely adored her. Sarah provided tons of photos and updates so it really put us at ease that our cat was getting some love while we were gone. Thank you Sarah!!”
“Justine took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She gave her her medication and played with her a lot! I have no doubts that my cat Effie had a wonderful time with her.”
About: Providing reliable, professional care for your pet (DBA Pawtastic Pet Sitting)--we appreciate any feedback & reviews en lieu of tips *Schedule availability update: Walks & drop-ins: Mon-Fri anytime after 3:30pm - Midnight Sat-Sun 24 hour availability Boarding: Drop offs/pick ups Mon-Fri before 6:30 am or after 3:30 pm Sat-Sun anytime My availability has changed for the holiday season. Thank you for understanding! I offer dog walking and house sitting services in your home or overnight boarding. If your dog has special care needs I can accommodate one dog at a time for a more comfortable stay. Free Meet & Greet with all new clients so we can review your dog's routine, go over your expectations, and decide if I am a good fit for you. You'll receive regular photo updates throughout your pet's stay. Please reach out with any questions! I am available for services throughout the week and on the weekends part-time with some flexibility depending on the dates. I can accommodate longer stays based on circumstances and care requirements, happy to discuss further! I will follow the owner's guidelines and treat your house and pets with respect. I use a common sense approach to safety and will stay vigilante when spending time with your loved one. I believe in clear communication and am happy to update you as much as needed. Thank you allowing me to help relieve some of the petcare duties for your dog or cat. My personal goal is to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you are away!
About: My unconditional love for all animals. Every cat or dog that I meet I treat and cherish as if they were my own fur baby. I do work a full time job, 8-4 Mon-Fri. However, I am looking to use some of my free time taking care of your fur baby! I do my best to maintain whatever routine you have with your fur baby. I am willing to go the extra mile to make your pup feel safe and comfortable while you are away.
About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm comfortable with dogs from all walks of life. I have confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, especially larger breeds, and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve personally owned two Pit Bulls, one weighing 70 pounds and the other 132 pounds, along with a Pomeranian, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels! My family has always had larger dogs and has trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’ve also helped friends with cat sitting, so my love and experience extend beyond just dogs! For the past year and a half, I’ve been a stay-at-home mom, which has taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and maintaining a loving, attentive environment. I understand that pets are family, and I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d give my own pets! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week, including weekdays and could be flexible depending on weekends. I’m happy to provide dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship while you’re away. My 1½-year-old would accompany me during visits, so I ask that pets be comfortable and safe around young children. I understand how important it is to find someone dependable to care for your furry family members, and I’m committed to providing reliable, loving, and attentive care while working around your pet’s individual routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! While I do not offer pet care in my own home, I’m more than happy to provide care in the comfort of yours, where your pets can remain in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, as well as smaller dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has its own personality, needs, and boundaries, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Since my young child accompanies me, I only accept pets that are comfortable around toddlers. I prioritize safe interactions, close supervision, and respecting each animal’s personal space. I’m also happy to follow any specific feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, or special instructions you provide. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are receiving dependable, compassionate care while you’re away!
About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and small mammals in my home since I was a kid, so caring for animals truly comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs — a male black Lab and a female Springer Spaniel — I personally potty trained my Springer and taught both dogs general obedience. I also have experience safely introducing new cats to other cats and to dogs, and I understand the importance of slow, structured transitions. I’m attentive to body language, routines, and each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet needs structure, playtime, or cuddles, I treat every animal like my own — with patience, consistency, and lots of love. 🐾💛 I am available to assist with walks or potty breaks on weeknights after I get off work around 5pm. I have more open availability on the weekends, as I am off of work from my regular job. On weekends, I can also assist with overnights at my house on Friday and Saturday or hosting during the day. I provide a safe, loving home environment for your pet while you’re away! We have a fully fenced yard (4-5ishft) for supervised play and hardwood floors for easy cleanup. I have a gentle five-year-old daughter who is very comfortable around animals, and my husband. We have two dogs: a male black lab (not neutered) and a female springer spaniel (spayed). If your pet prefers their own space, my dogs can be kenneled in our finished basement, and kept separate to ensure everyone is comfortable. Pets are welcome to snuggle on the furniture or use a cozy pet bed. I provide food and water bowls — you just supply the food. My goal is to make your pet feel right at home!
“This chick is phenomenal! She has a great personality and is very engaged with animals. My German shepherd loves her and even gets to play in the water with her. Her communication skills are stellar. I received live updates and photos while at work. If you want someone reliable and dedicated to your fur babies, she is it. I HIGHLY recommend her! <3”
About: I’ve grown up caring for cats and dogs and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. I have an active dog of my own who loves going on long walks, so I’m very comfortable keeping energetic dogs active and entertained. As a high-level athlete, I’m active myself and genuinely enjoy being outdoors, whether that’s walking, playing, or simply spending time with a pet. I’ve also helped neighbors care for their animals while they were away. Right now I’m training in Milwaukee and have practice at 3:30 so I can take care of your pet during the day but also after practice if needed. Would be preferred if I did at the clients house but I live in a apartment right now they have a dog park and sorts.
About: Growing up I had a dog and cat so already have experience plus I have dog sat for numerous of my parents friends and have always gotten good feedback from them. I am currently taking a semester off from college to work and save money I work at a daycare part time and am looking for extra ways to make money! I cannot do it at my home due to staying with family but being at your home the pets already know the environment and won’t need to learn anything and will be comfortable in a place they know.
About: Me and my husband dog sit together and have had dogs growing up and currently have one, I work at dog daycare/boarding facility and have been there for over 3 years now. My husband, Mateo, currently works from home and can be there when I’m at work. We absolutely love dogs and have taken care of them our whole life. I work full time but am available most days and am always available. I’m also available full time on the weekends. My husband currently works from home and is available to provide care while I’m at work! We would make sure to take care of any safety precautions necessary to keep your pup or pups safe in your home while you are away!
About: I have had all sorts of pets since I was a kid - dogs, cats, fish, hamsters - so I understand body language and can know what your animal needs/wants based off that. I also worked at PetSmart, during which I was tasked with taking care of our cats and hamsters; therefore, I have ample experience with a variety of pets needs and personalities. I am currently a student, so my schedule is odd but I have plenty of time to come visit your pets or house sit! I am free everyday mainly midday and in the evening, but I can fit early morning visits as well. I can do any necessary task, be it bathing your pets, walking them, or simply feeding them and letting them out. I will also make sure they feel comfortable and safe with me before moving forward with care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Franklin is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $26 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 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 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.
