And they arnt the cleanest cats so she was just amazing! The cats loved having her! She had great communication and great photos! I will definitely be calling her for next time!! You can just feel her love for your animals!! THANK YOU AGAIN!!”

About: A lifelong animal lover and your new reliable pet sitter. Im available for drop in care/walks, overnights and dog park trips. I am comfortable providing medications and working within strict dietary guidelines. I have a 13 year old terrier mutt named Jack, he's the sweetest boy and will stay with my adult son when I'm tending to the overnight care of your pet(s). My hobbies include reading, yoga, spending time with my family and learning how to sew! I currently work part time as a yoga instructor. Most of my classes are in the evening. My schedule is very flexible to meet the needs of your pets care! When I arrive into your home, I immediately greet the pet(s), having them sniff me and gauge if they want any pets. I'll spend time with the pets if they are ready/willing. From there I'll tend to water, litter box and come back to direct cuddles and play. If your pet is very cuddly, I'll spend as much time as they need during an overnight stay cuddling and giving pets.
“Kayla is amazing. My three cats love her and they were all bright eyed and bushy tailed when I came home. She took great pics of the boys every day I was gone and I was able to travel with no worries.”
“Our cat couldn't get more attention and care. He's very social and loves attention, amd she gave it! Proof was in the amazing pictures we received. Battlecat is super special and our fur baby, so this means a lot. Its heartbreaking to leave him, but when we do, we know he is treated so well by MacKenna. ❤️”
“Karolina was on time, communicative, and followed the instructions given. I would definitely use her again to watch my pup. It was comforting to know my dog was well taken care of during her check-ins.”
“My cat LOVED Jacqueline!!! My cat is very picky and she was absolutely right at home & happy as can be. Jacqueline sent me pictures every single day and that have me so much peace of mind because I could tell Lily was super comfortable & getting lots of love and attention. I highly recommend Jacqueline!”
“We couldn’t have ask for better pet caretakers with Syndie and Jack! This was our first vacation away from our kittens and we couldn’t have been luckier to have them care for our precious little gems. From day one, they were punctual, friendly, and thorough with our kittens. They took plenty of cute pictures and left thoughtful notes with every visit, quickly easing our worries. They were super responsive and caring. It’s so obvious they are true animal lovers and are a rare find. To top that off, we came back from our vacation to discover a heartfelt, hand-written card and treats for our cats! We can’t believe this is our first experience with pet sitters as I don’t know how anyone else will ever do a better job! We can’t say thank you enough and we hope we will be lucky enough to have Syndie and Jack care for our cats in the near future! Five stars all the way!”

“Lizette looked after my two cats while I was out of town for about a week and a half. She was extremely dependable and communicative. I would definitely recommend Lizette to anyone and would be thrilled to have her look after my cats again!”

About: The reflection of a person reflects how a domesticated animal will come to be. Thoughts like these make me want to understand more of why we were put on this world. Animals make me happy. They do things so flowingly and naturally and it’s so unique because it’s so simple. They don’t want to do it, they just do it. Each dog and cat all have their quirks and differences which is why they are so special to me being that all animals are special as well. These thoughts and experiences help me into exploring more of what I want to be as a person with animals and how this could help me to become what I aspire in being and beyond. I go to the gym almost everyday about an hour and a half. I go out most of the weekends usually between 2pm to 1am. 3 adults also live in our household and they already take care of most of the pets in our household. Every single moment counts as animals are in every single moment as well since they are being. To this moment I am still learning to understand all of my pets, they all have their differences and that is what I love so much. I have be different with each one. Adapting is such a big challenge for me because it can require a vast amount of patience and effort. Sometimes things will not go the way you want it to and that’s ok. There will always be another moment to try. These thoughts and reasons are what I want to apply when I’m studying new animals and how I can gain their trust.

We hired Seren for the first time for drop in visits for our cat for 5 days. She visit our Karma twice a day and provided plenty of photos and updates on how our kitty was doing and what she did during the visit. This was my first time leaving my cat home alone (we normally do housesitting) so I was a little nervous and worried she would be lonely. But Seren provided excellent care and attention, I know our Karma enjoyed her staycation! Thanks Seren!
Isabel took care of our two cats for two weeks while we were away. She did a wonderful job. Both of our cats loved her, and they were happy and relaxed when we came home. She was reliable and caring, and we never had to worry while we were gone. We highly recommend Isabel and will book her again!
Radhika is the best in her job and it’s not a surprise she has this many good reviews! She’s great at reading animals and adjusting her methods accordingly. She’s been the best at handling my feisty cat and inspires me a lot. I couldn’t have been more thankful for everything she has done!
We needed a cat sitter for two a day visits while we were on vacation. We met with Dawn prior to leaving to get to know one another and to go over our expectations. Our cat, Molly, is typically shy with strangers. Dawn took her time with Molly and she let Dawn pet her, give her chin scratches and brush her on each visit. Everything was well taken care of, the house was clean and we received regular texts and pictures to let us know how everything was.
Yeji did daily check-ins for my 15 years old cat while I was out of the country for two weeks. Everything went really well, she communicated well and was able to accommodate additional requests with grace. I highly recommend her and she will be my number one choice in the future when available.
Ailen was a wonderful pet sitter for our cat and 2 dogs! She was able to watch our pets for a week on short notice and was extremely thorough with her care for them. She is an exceptional communicator, and kept us up-to-date on all things happening while we were away.
Hoai did a wonderful job caring for our two cats! We went away for a week and we really appreciated the updates that she provided each day, which included photos and videos. She was also was great about asking us questions about the cats or their supplies to ensure they were receiving the very best care. The clear communication made us feel confident that the cats were in good hands. This was our first time using Rover and we would definitely book with Hoai again!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Galivan is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $41 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.

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.
