I have a flexible schedule and am able to fit caring for your pet into my life. Looking after the animals in our lives is very important to me. I love to help your dog get the wiggles out.

“Cheyenne was super professional caring and looking after our orange cat Cheeto! She visited him everyday we were out of town and gave us updates on what he’d been up to.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fredericksburg
We couldn’t recommend Paige more! She is so kind, reliable, and genuinely wonderful to work with. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our pets are in such good hands when we’re away. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust and can always count on!
We had a wonderful experience with Jessica! She was very responsive and communicative throughout our time away, and we loved receiving the pictures she took during each visit. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were in good hands while we were on our honeymoon, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Lucas is extraordinary. His check-in notes on our cat were thorough and he took excellent care of her while we were gone. He’s also a really nice guy: thoughtful, pleasant, and helpful. He also came highly recommended, and he did not disappoint. Thank you so much, Lucas!
Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our cats! She was dependable, caring, and treated our pets as if they were her own. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands while we were away. Katherine kept us updated, was attentive to their needs, and made sure they received plenty of love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter and would highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets!
Erin is so great. I had to arrange for drop in visits for my cat last minute. Erin is reliable. She played with my cat, sent me tons of pics, and of course, made sure she had food/water. It provides such peace of mind to have Erin looking after your pet. I highly recommend her.
Raine was honestly the best cat sitter I’ve had on this app! I’ve had a few great cat sitters over the years (about 5-6 different sitters total), but she truly went above and beyond anything I’ve experienced. I lucked out that she was available on short notice for a holiday weekend. Over the four days I was traveling, she visited twice daily and sent me detailed and well organized updates about how my two kitties were doing and what she did each visit. She sent photos for each visit and even asked if she could bring some of her own kitty’s favorite lollipops to share as a treat. When one of my cats wouldn’t take his meds, she followed up about how to handle and she also located a few items I had forgot to set out for her. I was able to thoroughly enjoy my trip without worrying about my kitties being lonely because I knew they were in great hands, especially because they’d been fighting lately and she accommodated my unique setup to keep them separated. I highly recommend her caring for your fur babies and look forward to booking her again!
We had a fantastic first experience using Rover thanks to Lucy! As first-time users, we were a little nervous about having someone come into our home while we were out of town, but Lucy made the entire process feel easy and reassuring from the start. She responded to our request almost immediately and scheduled a meet & greet within just a few days, which really helped put us at ease. While we were away, Lucy came by daily to take care of our cat, and she did an excellent job. It was clear our cat was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and attention she gave. Knowing that Lucy has cats of her own and also works at an animal hospital gave us an extra level of confidence that our pet was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be booking with Lucy again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsive, and caring pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fredericksburg is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $31 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 270 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fredericksburg. 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.

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.
