“Heather was absolutely amazing. She arrived on time every day and ensured my cat baby had food and water. She even checked her litter and cleaned up when my cat threw up. I was so pleased with her! She also left me a lovely card that I so much appreciated. I would definitely work with Heather again in the future.”
“Allison took great care of our senior Kitty and was attentive to the little details. Our Chloe clearly liked her as evidenced by the purrs, kneading and the fact that she was talkative around Allison. Will definitely contact Allison again!”

About: Just a country girl who's helped care for everything from livestock, household pets, to feathered friends! I'm looking forward to meeting your pet! I currently work full time and have one day off during the week & weekend free. I'm free in the evenings after 5:30 on the week days. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I'll provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks (if needed), and a safe, clean environment. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I'm happy to follow detailed care instructions, administer basic medications if needed, and send regular photo updates so you can feel confident while you're away.
About: Love & caring for animals isn't for just anyone & everyone. It takes dedication, love, knowledge & patience. My Aunt has a farm that I spent most of my summers growing up. So my love for all animals grew even more from dogs & cats to goats, horses, pigs, horses and my favorite, Rabbits! I was dog walking bathing,sitting and just loving them around age 12. Whatever my neighbors,family & friends needed for their furr babies I would be there to love & care for them. I do have some training abilities but no expert. I know how hard it is to leave your babies & I promise to always communicate, video chat with your furr baby whenever you need. Any special requests your pets needs I'll be there for them. ***IMPORTANT**Please Read***Future clients to know ***I also base my fees on miles driven to clients home, large breed dogs etc... So the price can be adjusted if needed ... Other Example.... Overnight stays, walking, bathing etc . For reasons of me having to leave home to run errands, pay bills etc... I do prefer dogs to be crate trained if possible. I have a fenced in yard with 2 dogs... Bella she's half Mastiff/German Shepherd. Bella & Bear are both create trained. Bear is a Pomeranian that belongs to my daughter. 1 cat "Sparky" Tabby that thinks he's King!!! Currently I do my own schedule, and . So my time will hopefully be available when your furr babies need. I do have other side jobs I do. So I can work around most things for care of your furr baby. (Rates can change depending on the mileage.) I have new fenced in backyard. 1 female dog Bella. She is half mastiff/German Shepherd & rescued her as a pup. Then 1 Tabby Cat Sparky who thanks he's the king! Pomeranian named Bear that behind to my daughter.
“I arranged 2 drop ins for an extra long work day. She was very professional, and very considerate of my home. She was very attentive and my dogs really liked her. She sent many pictures and stayed with them for 30 minutes each visit. I really appreciate not only her professionalism, but her consideration for my dogs and myself. I will be contacting her again next time my dogs need a walk or friendly visit!”
About: Hi! My name is Carina and Ive always been an animal lover. My friends and family call me Snow White because of it. If there is an animal around thats where you'll find me. I have experience with fostering bottle fed kittens, kittens and cats with medical needs, dog and cat ownership. I've also had experience caring for a dog with epilepsy and a dog with severe anxiety. I love all animals and tend to be the one that can get the less social ones to warm up to me. I would love to come meet your furry family and help keep them loved and cared for when needed. Animals provide us with such happiness and unconditional love. I believe we all have a duty to give back as much of that love as possible. They surely deserve it! I am currently available 24/7 to care for your pets. Whether you need check ins, full day or overnight care, I am available to help! Since I have two cats of my own, care will be provided in your home. I believe caring for animals in an environment they are familiar with is essential to their safety and comfort. All care notes and preferences will be followed to a T and all animals will be treated with the upmost caution, safety and love.
About: I have a wealth of experience caring for dogs of all ages. I understand how to create safe, loving, enriching environments for all breeds and all life stages. I have a lot of experience walking reactive dogs on a leash with no drama and no yelling. I know what it takes to be a leader for all dog breeds and all levels of reactivity. I also have experience potty training dogs of all ages, and I can help maintain basic skill training when I walk them/feed them/stay with them as needed. I love senior dogs, too, and I am skilled with insulin shots, meds, and extra special loving for senior pups who need it. I am currently an online student. I have open availability 7 days per week, and my husband and I do not have children. I am taking 3 classes online this semester, so I have plenty of time to care for your home and your pets. I am reliable, easy to communicate with, and punctual. You can always count on me to treat your home and your pets with care and respect. I care for my pets like they are my human offspring. I vow to care for your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would exercise in my personal home. I appreciate the opportunity to make some extra money by caring for your pets and or your home while you travel for work or vacation, and I will respect this role as I would my corporate retail job that I held for the last 10 years.🐾💕
“Jeri was great! Super friendly, always prompt and great with animals. She came to meet my pets before her booked visits which I appreciated. Will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“Winnie loved seeing Lily again! We appreciate her proactive communication and the care and pets she gives Win when we can’t be home. Winnie is an older cat on a few medications. Lily is great about giving the pills wrapped up in pill pockets, and makes sure Winnie eats them all.”
“We couldn’t have taken our trip if we hadn’t of found Ruben! We have old, high maintenance dogs and he was perfect for us. He’s patient, experienced, dependable and just a really great sweet guy! Would absolutely recommend Ruben to anyone I know ;)”
About: Howdy! I am a Texas A&M alum and proud dog mom of 2 little angels. I have had a passion for animals since I was a child, and am so excited to meet your four-legged friends! I have lots of experience caring for pets for friends and family, and recently fostered as well. I am extremely patient, loving, and excited to help care for your dogs! I am also an avid runner, so I would be happy to take your dog for a jog. **I live in an apartment, so I do NOT have a fenced in backyard** I work from home! I am happy to come and hangout with your dog while I work, and I have lots of flexibility to focus on your pet’s schedule! I have experience working with both large and small dogs, of all attitudes and breeds! My own dog was rescued, so I am comfortable with helping anxious pups as well.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 walking neighborhood dogs. I have three cats at home and I have owned a dog before! I love pets, and love seeing a happy pet!! I am currently a full time student athlete, but have a very flexible schedule. I am totally willing to spend nights with pets and even just stop by for a walk here and there! I am still living in a dorm styled housing, so taking pegs in my home will not yet be an option. Although I’m sure if I had to walk the pet over, there are sooo many people that would love to give some love that are missing their pets at home!!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Gastonia is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit.

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 .

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.
