As always, I came home to a happy, healthy, well-loved dog! Kim is so in tune with her and Juni adores her! She alerts me to any potential issues and follows up, gives very complete reports of their (always fun) activities, and in general makes me feel confident that our dog is in super capable hands! Thanks, Kim!!

About: Growing up, I had 4 dogs and a cat, seperated between households. More recently, I've been much more cat oriented since my partner is a lover of cats. I try to stay up to date on training research, and I'm big on communication! Your pet is your family member, and I want to know how to treat them best! I'm a freelancer so my schedule is always changing! I travel a lot both locally and further so making stops and changes in my plans are normal for me! I like to know exactly how you want your pet treated so expect lots of questions so I can ensure your pet feels safe and happy while their best friend (you) is away!

HUGE thank you to MacKenzie for doing this one-off semi last-minute visit with my pups and her continued patience with my one dog who is a little more nervous and difficult. She is a blessing and I will always be grateful for her love and care she gives my pups while I am away.

About: I have always had pets my whole life, a whole variety of them too! I have experience working with much larger animals including horses as well, which happen to be my favorite! I have cared for a handful of neighbors pets including walking them, feeding, taking out, and playing too. I am working part-time currently so I will have plenty of time to play with and care for your feline or fido! Walks are always a plus as I get my exercise too! I am always one to put the animal first. If your baby is a little more skiddish, I'll give them plenty of time to warm up! If they want to play an extra few minutes, I'm more than happy to throw their toy for them. If they would rather relax and cuddle, I will be more than happy! Whatever they want always comes first.

About: I grew up with dogs, and owned my own for 7 years. I have house sat for multiple families and prefer to stay at the home since I have found it to be less stressful for the pets. I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, Guinea pigs, horses, and even reptiles! I also have experience with animals that need medication such as anxiety meds and insulin. I am currently in esthetics school and working park time. Depending on when booking my schedule may be different. If your pet is special needs, I will adjust my schedule to fit those needs when given advanced notice. If the yard is fenced I will use that or a leash if that is provided. I can also take your dogs on a walks! When letting dogs out, I prefer to keep an eye on them so I will usually sit outside while they do their business.

We recently had the pleasure of having Gigi and Nate take care of our dog, and I couldn't be happier with their service! They treated my dog as if he were their own, providing not just the basics but going above and beyond to ensure he was happy and well-cared for. They also kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Gigi to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet sitters. They're simply the best!

Hollis was an absolute angel for my little man Peter. He kept him company, followed my directions, showed kindness and compassion. He even did my dishes and room out the trash which wasn’t part of the job! We had one miscommunication which he cleared up and made up for. I would hire Hollis again and recommend him.

About: Since I was little, I have taken care of pets and cats. I watched the pets of my friends, my family, and others. I played with them and took them for walks. When someone needs a babysitter, I would be thrilled to help. Since I have no plans, I can be fairly flexible with my schedule. If you need me at the last minute, I'll be there. I’m pretty available. I always make sure there is adequate room for the dog to play around. When there is another dog nearby, I prefer to keep the leash on for safety. Give the dog enough room and don't surround them with too much stuff to prevent damage.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Garbutt

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 470 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Garbutt. 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 Garbutt. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
