BJ has done an awesome job of caring for two very shy cats. They are even letting her see them once in a while now and that doesn't happen with anyone outside the family! Thank you BJ.

Paige was awesome! Our 3 fur babies loved her. She was very punctual, attentive, and loving and even managed to win over our shy baby that usually hides under the couch!

Had a great experience with Madison, she did 3x daily drop in visits for our cat and dog while we were out of town. She was a clear communicator, easy to get ahold of, and sent pics every visit showing the pets playing and getting treats. She also collected our mail and put it on the table. Would recommend!

About: Since growing up, I have always lived in a household with at least one pet. Various different types of dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and I also had a pet crab I cared for when I was younger. As I grew older I continuously learned to give them care and love, and now my brother often asks me to care for his cat, and others rely on me to care for the animals while on vacation. My schedule is mainly flexible to take care of your furry ones. I am a college student, and starting in August. I will still have plenty of time to take care of pets during the college season as well! I make sure it’s a clean, and a comfortable environment for the animal(s). They are always fed, hydrated, given affection, looked after, and the environment they are in is clean and safe!

About: Work from home empty nest Mom. I have a sweet, 9 year old bichon shihtzu that is spoiled rotten 🙂. My kids are at college and come visit on the weekends. I have a flexible schedule during the day and I love to play and walk my dog multiple times a day. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and I offer a fenced in yard, plenty of play time and snuggles! I’m happy to send pictures throughout the day if you want. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I work from home with a flexible schedule during the week. My weekends are mostly home too. I do occasional zoom calls and pretty regular phone calls, so I do need a pretty quiet office space. I usually do walks in the morning and at 4/5pm. Backyard time around lunch time and chill time after 7/8. My dog and I have a calm, easy going manner. I have a fenced in yard and a cute fur baby to keep your pup company. I have extra bedrooms if your dog needs to be in a crate or kennel.

About: I have been a nanny and dog sitter for 8+ years. I have experience with all sizes and ages of pets. I enjoy taking care and spending time with animals. I love getting to know their personalities. I am a freelance artist, my current schedule is pretty flexible. I open currently to new clients that are looking for drop in visits or walks.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up with animals taught me how to read their behavior, provide daily care, and make them feel comfortable and safe. I have experience feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, administering basic care, and giving them plenty of attention and exercise. I also have experience helping train puppies, including basic commands, leash manners, house-training routines, and positive reinforcement techniques. I enjoy working with young dogs and helping them learn good habits while building their confidence. I currently care for my own pets and understand how important it is to treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care so pet owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and am available most weekdays, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. This allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, or overnight stays. While I generally prefer not to work weekends, I may be available on a case-by-case basis with advance notice. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and lots of love while their owners are away. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and wellbeing and will communicate with owners if I notice anything unusual. I understand that trust is important when someone is caring for a beloved pet, so I treat every animal and home with respect and care. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

About: With over 10 years of experience, I combine a passion for animals with professional expertise. As a nurse, I understand the importance of compassionate care, and that’s exactly what I provide for your furry family members. Meet the Team: As a seasoned pet sitter, I’ve cared for countless dogs, cats, and other critters. My own pets are my pride and joy, and I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. My Little Helpers: With three children under the age of 7, our home is always bustling with energy and laughter. Your pets will enjoy the playful company of our little ones during their stay. I am also a professional photographer and would love to capture some fun photos of your furry friend! Ask me about my add on photography service! Between my husband and I, someone is always home. It would not be a problem if your pet would need frequent bathroom breaks. As a part time nurse, I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I also have a cat that keeps to himself. He is allowed to free roam the main floor. They play outside whenever I am out. Your animal will be treated like my own pet with your typical rules and requests respected.

About: I've provided pet services and pet/house sitting for a small group of people I've known and been referred to. I've been wanting to expand my clientele, as I have a lot to offer. Although I consider it to be a small side gig, I like to refer to my business affectionately as "No Place Like Home". I have 20 plus years experience, including managing a dog day care for two years. It also includes working with special needs, administering medication orally and through injections. I have references as well as my own personal experience with my cat. I am energetic and can keep up with even the most active dogs. They are my passion. Not only that, pet sitting in your house creates a calmer and safer environment for your pets, as well as keeping your home safe and occupied. I am semi retired. I have a lot of time to spend with your pets in your home ensuring several potty breaks, play and exercise. I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I follow instructions left by the owner and will ensure play and exercise

About: My significant other and I live in a house with 3 dogs. We take our dogs (who are more like our kids)on a walk in our neighborhood or fenced in backyard and let them run around at least twice a day! Our dogs are spoiled and loved as they should be! We play ball and snuggle and they sleep with us too:) We'd love to love your pet while you're away! I work part time at WagZone dog day care so I have a lot of free time for my own pups. I love walks, hikes on our land outside of time or just fetch time in the yard. Fenced in yard allows dogs to run freely all day with a dog door to a sheltered garage. My dogs get along with all other souls.

About: I have such a big heart for dogs! I have a lot of experience dealing with dogs, I have volunteered at a humane society while in school walking, feeding, and bathing dogs. I have 2 dogs of my own and I keep them very active; I take them running, swimming, or walking with me every day. I love to have fun with them, but also believe discipline is necessary. I like to spend most of my time outside, I am very attentive and will take great care of your pup! I’m lucky enough to work from home so I’m around mostly all day long. I like to play with them outside when I have breaks but also give them the space to relax inside. I have a fenced in yard for my two dogs. They have full range of the house otherwise. I am open to crating if that makes them feel safe. I would not leave the house without them fully leashed.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Garretson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Garretson on Rover is $13.32 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 134 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Garretson. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
