“She was absolutely amazing got good pictures of my babies every time she visited and also had very good communication. My cat seemed very happy and healthy when I got back!”
“Taylor was so great with my Cleo! She was available on short notice and was willing to meet us prior to going away for a few days. I was really worried how Cleo would react, he is an older dog and protective, but she handled him so very well! Thank so much Taylor! I will be reaching out again!”
“Marie has been super sweet and patient with my nervous pup! It’s been incredibly helpful to have some extra support when we will be away for longer than usual during the day.”
“Keerie is the perfect pet sitter! We use her services every time we go out of town! She is so excellent with our dogs and us!! She always sends great pics Anne’s keeps us informed. We love her!!”
About: I am and have been vegan since I was a child. I’ve always had a deep love for and towards animals ever since I can remember. I like to be in animals energy and presence. Even when giving “care” it’s enjoyable and pleasing for me to offer that for your pets. I bring a calm and peaceful vibe to any situation. I want to be a safe and comfortable space for your animals. ~ If you book the house sitting option, I am only available to sit throughout the day. No sleepovers. I currently am a part time student studying vet tech with a fine arts minor! I have a great amount of free time and flexible schedule to accommodate “different” jobs and care. I live in an apartment with 3 cats. I don’t have any closed off areas at the moment and my cats free roam around the house.
“Anna was great with my pup! She had never been cared for by anyone and was very afraid. Anna was very patient with her and made her feel comfortable. Would definitely book her again!!”
“Michele was great! She was very patient and kind with my kitty who can be a little hissy. You can tell she truly loves animals and treats yours like they were her own. Would definitely recommend her!”
About: My husband and I have owned dogs and cats our whole lives and I have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was in high school and have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My husband and I are both approved rover pet care takers so one or both of us may be the one to help! I’m a stay at home mom with a husband who works remote so I’m very flexible! This allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of supervision and companionship while in my care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets supervised, ensure doors and gates are secure, and pay close attention during walks and outdoor time. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life and always enjoyed learning their unique personalities and social hierarchies. I am still (forever) mourning the loss of my childhood dogs and funnel my love for them towards any dog I encounter. I was a 4Paws sitter in college, so I have experience with socializing puppies and some basic training, while adapting to the dog's different ages. I have a cat of my own that I love like my own human child, and I spread that care and joy to any kitty I encounter! I am currently very flexible as I am new to the area and between jobs. I have the time to show your pet the care and love that it needs while you are gone! I have my own car so I can easily travel to care for multiple pets if necessary. My yard is not entirely fenced in, but there is grass in the back and front. I have one cat in my home, so I require cat-friendly dogs that can ideally be crated for short periods if needed. As far as other cats, I know it can be situational, but I do have the space to keep the cats separated to begin with/ the whole visit if necessary. All of our indoor plants are pet-friendly as well!
“Dave was fantastic! He was quick to respond from my initial inquiry. The meet and greet was a success as I could tell my pup loved him right away. Dave was communicative, on time, and followed all instructions. He was tidy and respectful of my home. I felt so at ease knowing my puppy was in good hands and having fun and the photos showing how happy Corbin was were the highlight of my day. Thank you Dave for being so wonderful and taking such great care of Corbin. I know he'll miss you. Hope to book with you again and will absolutely suggest you to friends and family!”
“We had the best experience with Maria! She watched our cat for us for 1 week while we were out of town & it could not have gone any better. She dropped by twice a day, gave our cat plenty of love & affection, & sent us lots of pics & updates while we were away which we appreciated so much. Our cat can be very shy but she warmed up to Maria almost instantly & we knew she was in the best care while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Maria again & would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their furry friend :)”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and have experience with pet sitting as a teenager. I currently have two regular clients, I have 5 pets of my own and would love to help with cats or small dogs when you need it! I’m a probation officer, and a reliable animal lover. I work from home typically Tuesday-Thursday depending on my work schedule, so I have more flexibility on my lunch break on these days to help out with drop in visits. If you trust me to keep your pet at my home, I’ll be with them all day and can provide frequent potty breaks Tuesday-Thursday. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run, and two dogs who would love a playmate and sleepover! If you have a cat, I will check in and provide company as needed.
“Laura was truly amazing. She treated my boys as if they were her own (and even cared for the outside kitty I take care of). “Animal Whisperer” is an appropriate title for her. I looked forward to each visit report, complete with the BEST pictures 🤍 She left my house cleaner than when I left! If you’re looking for someone who truly has the biggest heart to care for your fur babies, look no further. I’m forever grateful to have someone reliable when I’m in need…plus my boys LOVE her!”
About: I've had animals my entire life. When family friends went on vacation, they called me 🐶🐱 I believe that animals are more than pets, they're family. They deserve the same level of care & love that humans do. I've had years of experience training dogs to do tricks or walk properly, giving cats & dogs medicine, and grooming them thoroughly. I have taken care of puppies and senior pets. I work from home a lot so I have time on my hands that someone with a 9-5 wouldn't! My schedule is very flexible for this type of work. For caring for pets in my clients home, I believe keeping their routine consistent is key. Animals like consistently or some sense of familiar structure. Matching the energy that their parent has is also essential in my book as well.
“Charity and Mark treat your pets as their own, they are so caring! They made sure to know all of the details to make the experience the best it could be for my senior dog. Looking forward to working with them again in the future!”
“I am so very happy to have connected with Rebecca! This was my first time using Rover and my 8 year old dog has very limited tolerance for “strangers” (human and canine) so I was a bit nervous about how our full 6 days away would go for our little Luna. but Rebecca made me and my pup feel comfortable from the very start! Rebecca visited twice before we left so Luna could be familiar. Rover app is amazing in keeping owners updated on sitters arrival and departure times. Rebecca was prompt each time she visited Luna and was amazing about sharing pictures and updates. I recommend Rebecca without reservation and will be reaching out again next time we head out of town.”

Marie and Jorge were extremely attentive, communicative and kind throughout all the visits with my cat Sorrel- providing a lot of photos for each visit. They accomodated a lot of special requests for my kitty with much compassion, and assured me while I was away. I am very grateful they agreed to help with my stay and were able to care for my cat. Thank you both very much!
Dakota was amazing with my boys. She was able to connect with my shy one so quickly, which gave me even more relief with their care. She was also extremely easy to reach and she was in constant contact with me. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future for other pet sitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Ghent on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,250 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ghent. 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 Ghent. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
