Kathy has watched our sweet cat Latte for our trips over the past two years. Latte loves her, and we are so happy with her care. She sends us great messages and pictures each day. Latte is well cared for, and we are too by knowing what good hands Latte is in. We highly recommend Kathy’s care and will certainly keep using it.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets of all kinds. I take pride in being a responsible, dependable sitter who treats every pet like family. As a local resident and mom to a sweet 4-year-old daughter who also adores animals, our home is full of love, care, and gentle energy. I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are in safe, capable hands, and I always go the extra mile to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime in the afternoon, or evening cuddles, I always make time for animals throughout the day. My daughter and I love spending time with pets, so caring for them fits seamlessly into our family’s rhythm. I’m used to feeding schedules, walks, administering basic care, and giving plenty of attention and love. Because I work locally and have a flexible schedule, I’m able to devote consistent time and energy to each pet I watch, making sure their needs are always met and they feel safe and happy. In my home, pets enjoy plenty of space to play and relax — I have a large home and a fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor time. I keep to each pet’s usual routine with regular walks, feeding, and lots of love and attention. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. No matter where I’m watching them, I treat every pet like part of the family.

Absolutely wonderful dog sitter! Excellent communication, always on time, and the photos from each visit were so comforting and reassuring. Most importantly, my dog was incredibly happy and relaxed when I returned. I felt completely confident knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!

From the moment Amelia met my dogs during our meet-and-greet, it was obvious that she was very comfortable with pets, which was extremely important to me. She was punctual for both the meet-and-greet and every visit, followed all of the instructions, and communicated very well throughout. Most importantly, my dogs were comfortable with her, and I felt they received genuinely kind, attentive, and caring care. I will definitely be using Amelia again for my future pet-sitting needs and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.

While you’re gone on, we can take walks, take naps, and make memories! I am an active 33 year old who is willing to put your pets in my heart + home and care for them like I do my own! I am an independent, reliable individual who can follow specific directions and dietary needs for your pet. Please feel free to message me with any questions or requests!

About: Growing up, I always had pets: dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, fish, guinea pigs, and birds. I loved animals, and I still do. My home is very clean, not just for myself but for them as well. Pets have always been a soft spot for me, and I make time for them every day. I can’t remember a time without furry friends in my home! I’m observant and attentive to every pet’s personality. I make sure they feel comfortable in their favorite spots, whether it’s their bed or a special corner in your home. I follow all instructions carefully from meals and treats to medications and routines to give your pet the care they deserve.

Emma was fantastic with our 8 year old dog while we were away for Thanksgiving. She provided multiple pictures and updates during her drop in visits and gave her lots of love. We were hesitant to leave our baby but Emma immediately put our minds at ease and I’m so happy we decided to give Rover another try. Thanks again Emma!!!

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, and have cared for 4 dogs in my home until. I love dogs, the outdoors, and being active, so dog walking is super fun for me! I have experience with high-energy dogs as well as slower senior pups. I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time for your pets! I’m currently available all day (including early mornings) until evening, Monday-Saturday for walks or check-in visits. I currently have Bo, a senior pitbull, who is super chill and has no problems with other dogs. I also recently got a Belgian Malinois puppy named Darth Vader! Mercury, my brother’s 6 year old Australian Cattle dog, loves to play and I take care of him on occasion. We have a large patio and pool that dogs can enjoy laying in the sun or swimming! I also have a super walk able neighborhood, with a walking trail that is off the pavement. Additionally, I do enjoy taking dogs in the car for walks in new locations or trips to the dog beach/park!

About: Taken care of many cats and dogs! I have worked in pet boarding resorts! As long as your friendly pooch and I get along well, I will gladly care for your dog as schedule allows! I am a swim teacher, but on my free days and in my other free time can walk dogs and do drop in visits for any non aggressive dog, cat or caged pets. Aggressive pets will be taken on case by case basis if I’ll be able to safely handle. I currently live in a condo with my own dog, but during drop in visits and walks I’ll be paying attention to dog or cat interests and health needs. I’m willing to cater to the individual needs of the pet and treat them like my own. Also willing to care for non cat/dog pets within home as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fruitville on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,161 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fruitville. 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 Fruitville. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
