“Macy is going through Heartworm kill treatment and Megan knows the restrictions when dropping in on her for potty breaks. So glad I don’t have to worry that my crazy girl’s heart rate will be compromised and she will be restrained from zoomies. But Lord help her when no holds barred!! ? Thank you Megan.”
“As a first time rover user I was terrified BUT Lauren is incredible!!!! I had a last minute need for drop in visits and she not only accommodated me but went above and beyond. She was so incredibly kind about my chaos and my house being very much a dog house. She cleaned up pots that my dogs broke which was so exceptionally kind! She took great pictures of them and they were clearly happy and she checked in with me consistently. 10/10 recommend and would love to hire her again!!”
“Kristina helped me complete the booking using the app. Helped me with little notice ans was very quick, thorough and helpful! I would recommend her 100% Left the cat room as good as she found it! Brought in my packages and gave me awesome pics! 👌 10/10”
“Maggie is excellent and the pups love seeing her come through the door. Maggie is very responsive and her report cards are awesome. She definitely takes the stress out of having to leave the pups at home during work.”
“Heather is AMAZING!! We are truly blessed to have found her! I was worried that no one would want to take on four Siberian Huskies, two of them being puppies! She genuinely cares about them and goes above and beyond to see that they are shown lots of love and affection. I would highly recommend Heather, especially if you’re a worried dog parent who hates to leave their four legged babies. She has put my mind at ease knowing they are well cared for.”
“Demi did absolutely amazing with my foster cat Benito! This was my first Rover experience, and I had full peace of mind while I was away because of Demi’s promptness, communication, and enthusiasm. She sent detailed updates and so many photos for each drop-in and even left a printed collage of some of the pictures she took of Benny 🥲 Would not hesitate to recommend Demi for loving pet care and will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Wow! Kim is amazing! She is so kind! She is so loving! As a new Rover customer I was a bit nervous but she made us and our dogs feel at ease immediately! So grateful for her. She is a true gift!”
“We had a wonderful experience with this Hailey! This was our first time using Rover to book a cat sitter, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was incredibly attentive, kind, and clearly cares deeply about animals. Her communication was excellent throughout, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Meet and greet. So wonderful to meet Jennifer. She was very quick to understand things. I’m so grateful to have someone to call on for various visits for our pets. Thank you for your time today Jennifer.”
About: I’m a certified dog trainer through Animal Behavior College with hands-on training at Head of the Class Dog Training. I’ve trained shelter dogs and been involved in cat rescue and foster care, so I’m used to everything from nervous side-eyes to full chaos energy. I’m patient, understanding, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality so they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m home Friday through Monday, which makes those days perfect for boarding with lots of attention and consistency. Tuesday–Thursday I work in Winchester until 4:30 PM, but I’m available in the evenings for walks. In my home, I offer a structured routine with exercise, enrichment, and a secure 6-foot privacy fence for safe outdoor time. In your home, I follow your pet’s normal routine to keep things consistent and stress-free.
“I can’t say enough good things about Cynthia, she is absolutely amazing. She took great care of my cats and fish including one cat who requires insulin. She went above and beyond again when I asked to extend my trip, then continued to help after I got sick and had to delay it again.”
About: If your pet could choose their own vacation, I’d love to think they’d choose my home. Animals have been my whole life. I’ve shared my life with dogs for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals has always been a part of who I am. Every wagging tail, happy zoomie, belly rub, cuddle on the couch, game of fetch, and quiet nap together is my favorite part of the day. Some people enjoy quiet houses. I love hearing paws on the floor. Your pet won’t be treated like a customer. They’ll be treated like someone I genuinely adore. I work from home, so I’m able to give dogs the time, attention, and companionship they deserve. My home sits on five peaceful acres with a large, securely fenced yard where they can safely run, explore, play, and simply enjoy being dogs, all under my supervision. I’ve also spent the past several years hosting Airbnb guests and caring for many of their pets, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. When your pet is with me, my goal is simple. I want them to feel safe, happy, loved, and excited to come back. I can't wait to welcome your best friend into my home. I work for myself, I have a very flexible schedule and can adjust my time to meet your pet’s needs. This allows me to be available, reliable, and fully present for your pet. Whether it’s daily visits or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll make sure they are cared for, comfortable, and never feel alone. I treat every pet like my own, with safety and comfort always coming first. I live on a private five-acre property with a large, securely fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and enjoy plenty of space. Inside, pets have a calm, clean environment with cozy spots to relax, along with toys and attention. I always supervise outdoor time and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and truly cared for.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little, but I’ve been helping out a lot more in the past 4-5 years. I pet sit for many family members and countless friends. They rely on me to walk, feed, play, and most of all care for their animals. I also fostered a puppy for a year and found him an amazing home! I’m a huge animal lover and want to provide the best care for your animals :) I’m currently a college student and have a part-time job, but I have a good amount of availability around that. I work throughout the week mostly when I’m needed so that schedule can vary. Thus, it would be ideal for me to care for your pets in the mornings or evenings :) I have a senior dog who’s very friendly and loves to be outside. I play with her as much as I can, but since she’s getting old, she just likes to eat her treats and sleep! While caring for your pet, I’ll ensure to give them the attention they deserve by playing with them, walking them, or whatever else is requested!
“What a pleasure to have Abigail take care of our older guy. She came over to meet him before their time together. She took great photos of him (which he won’t let me do). She took extra care of our super senior. We can’t wait to have her back again!”
“Brittany always goes above and beyond to make our dogs happy while we're away, and to make sure we are comfortable being away from them. Her communication and reliability are both EXCELLENT. Thank you, Brittany & fam!!!”
“Carolyn is always so awesome with my kitties! They clearly adore her, and I always feel a little better when I have to leave town knowing that they are well cared for in my absence”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Gerrardstown on Rover is $23.87 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 585 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gerrardstown. 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.

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.
