About: I am an absolute animal lover! I have worked in doggy daycare and boarding, trained puppies, taken care of the medication and extra needs in older dogs as well as pet sat for my friends and families dogs (ranging from small to big) and cats. I have two cats of my own, but never miss an opportunity to say pspsps to another feline friend. I'm working part-time so I have plenty of availability to watch over your pet as needed. If you require walking or training, I would love to provide that service as well! I have too many pets of my own to offer to board your dog(s) or cat(s), but I have reliable transportation to come to you when needed! I love to play, cuddle, pet and train animals and I am a trustworthy, clean person to have in your home. When not actively playing with your fur babies I will most like just be reading.
About: I have two dogs of my own and I love them both so much! I volunteered at a local dog shelter, where I gained hands on experience working with dogs of all sizes! I have taken care of smaller dogs, bigger dogs, and older dogs before. No matter the size I’m happy to help! I am a college student, so my schedule is flexible -which ensures plenty of time to take care of your little ones! I usually take my dogs for a walk every morning/evening and if you need me too I’d love to do it for yours as well! I understand the stress of leaving your furry friend with strangers. I have always been an animal lover and would gladly show your little ones some love! I will treat your home like it is my own- with respect and care. When I have someone else’s animal in my care I treat them like my own -as part of my family, as I hope anyone else would do for mine!
“Angelina is punctual, reliable, and flexible! I appreciated her giving my cat his medications on time, and was so thankful that she was able to add an extra, last-minute visit when my flight home was cancelled. Even when my apartment’s gate gave her problems, she stuck around and made it to her drop-in visit. Thank you!”
“Rachel is our go to for my cat Pauly! He can be a lot of work sometimes and he is picky on where he’s at and with who. So i can tell she makes him feel comfortable at her home, he enjoys his time there. she keeps me updated with pictures all the time as well :)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Family friends and neighbors would always trust me to feed walk and bathe their dogs whenever they were away. I’m currently working part- time which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pets! I am typically always free in the mornings and afternoon while some days I am free all day. Schedule can always be discussed. I am open to provide any care your fur baby might need while you are away and cannot provide that care. That may include walking, feeding, bathing, and playing with them.
About: I have always taken care of my friends or neighbors pets! It’s one of my favorite pass times! I’ve cared for many dogs cats and smaller pets! I have a pretty open schedule I just have school a couple times a week! So Mondays and Wednesdays I’m free before 10am and after 2pm. I care for my cats at home I make sure they have the best bowls food litter and environment and I fully intend to do so for others pets! Every animal deserves a great day and care!
“We have been using Wendy for a long time now and she always does a great job. We definitely trust her to check on our two cats and administer my cat’s meds while out of town. They love her!”
About: I take my schedule seriously and I also am able to give pets space when they need while also checking if they need attention. I can provide them the service they need. I recently graduated from college and I am in the beginning of my professional career so I have plenty of time to give attention to your pet. I am able to provide pets their food and water and play with them if they need. If it is a cat, I can clear their sand box.

Everything was great! Cats didnt even hate me on my return! Samuel took good care of them and I'm already planning the next trip when I finish sleeping this one off, relieved in the knowledge that Samuel will be here to watch over my precious little beasts! Thanks again!!
Meghan was absolutely wonderful with drop-ins for my elderly cat while I was away. I was super nervous about leaving my cat with someone new after a difficult year with her health, but Meghan was super warm, communicative, and consistently on-schedule with everything going just as planned. 10/10 will absolutely book with her again. Thank you!!!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Galveston is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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.

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.
