“Sherri was great with my 3 kitties. She went consistently at same time every day, sent daily communication, played with them and sent lots of great photos. I will definitely request Sherri when I need a future cat sitter.”
“Jess was amazing with our dogs and even did extra to play with our kitties. She included so many pictures of our babies it was nice to see them being so happy while we were out of town. Would definitely recommend using her to watch your fur babies.”
About: I grew up taking care of puppies and dogs of all types. I tend to gravitate in any situation towards animals first. While I have no formal training in dog training, I have learned quite a bit throughout my years. My schedule sometimes varies through out the week but it is 99% night shifts, so 3pm until about midnight at the latest. I am available anytime during the day. I live alone with just my 4 year old cat in a decently sized 1 bedroom apartment. I am on the second floor with no elevator. I will be very respectful to your home and your pets, just as I expect someone to be in my home. I pay attention to details and will make sure to take great care of your fur babies.
About: Hi! My name is Isabel and I truly love animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets for friends and family and I treat every dog like part of my own family. I provide a safe, calm and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy walking, playing and giving dogs the attention they deserve. I always send photos and updates so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness and comfort are always my priority. During the week I am available in the mornings and early afternoons (8 AM – 4:30 PM). I attend classes from 5:30 PM to 8:15 PM, but I am available again in the evenings after that if needed. On weekends I have more flexibility and can work mornings or afternoons. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. When I stay in a pet owner’s home, I follow their routines and instructions carefully to keep their pets relaxed and happy. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, just like they were my own.
“Claudia has cared for Milo at least five times now, and every experience has been outstanding. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such loving and capable hands whenever I’m away. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely treats Milo like he’s part of her own family. She always pays attention to the little details, keeps me updated, and makes sure he’s happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The moment Milo sees Claudia, his tail starts wagging and he gets so excited—that says everything about the bond they’ve built. I couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter. Thank you, Claudia, for always taking such incredible care of my sweet boy. I wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pet as if it were their own!”
“Cristina did absolutely amazing!! She is extremely responsive and very caring about the pets she watches. Hands down the best, would highly recommend to anyone!!”
“Whitney was amazing! We had some first time bathroom issues with my senior dog and she was so great about the modifications needed to keep him happy and comfy. She ended up having to do quite a bit of unexpected cleanup and was such a champ throughout. Wonderful and responsible sitter!”
“Amanda is absolutely the best. Always gives the cats plenty of love and they feel comfortable with her. She also is super communicative and actually leaves notes on visits unlike most sitters. 10/10 always.”
“Dana was absolutely fantastic with our two cats. Such peace of mind! She even managed to give one of them the asthma inhaler which I wasn’t sure our cat would accept from someone else than me. Highly recommend!”
About: Over the past four years, I’ve cared for dozens of dogs and cats for friends and family—walking, feeding, playing, and giving them love while their people were away. What started as doing favors turned into something I genuinely enjoy and feel confident doing, so I thought… why not finally offer it professionally? While I’ve never had a pet of my own (yet!), I treat every animal I care for like they’re family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re gone. I’m attentive, gentle, and great at reading an animal’s vibe—whether they want playtime, cuddles, or just someone calm nearby. I’d love to meet your furry companion and be someone you can count on. Let’s chat about how I can help! I currently work part-time most of my work days are during the weekend so throughout the week I am home all day pretty much every day! I am to make sure I learn the routines of each of my clients and ensure that the pets feel like they are at home!
“Lindsay have been doing check ins on my Boston lilly for 2 weeks now. And she has had good communication and always make sure lilly gets plenty of exercise and has time to cool down safely after play time. Atm I plan on keeping her as a sitter for a long term. Thank you Lindsey 😊”
“My cat was safe and happy upon the return of my week long trip. 😸 That was the best he has behaved while I’ve been on a vacation. I also appreciated the daily updates with pictures. Thank you! 🙏”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gibsonton
Sherri was such a wonderful sitter for our furry babies. She lovingly took care of their food, litter box, and water, and went the extra mile to spend quality time playing with them. The report pictures clearly showed them having fun and feeling comfortable around her. She has a natural warmth and gentle spirit that's perfect for kittens. We would definitely love to use her services again in the future!
Thank you very much for everything. The animals seem to be doing great and are very happy. Of course now they see their humans! We are traveling again next month from August 24 through the 28th. I’m sorry the 23rd through the 28th. Would you be available then?
Nakisha was so nice and easy to work with! I reached out to her last minute on a holiday weekend and she was able to take the booking and schedule a meet-and-greet all within a short time frame. While we were gone, she updated us every day with pictures and description of our cat’s attitude/well being. I felt completely at ease with her handling the care of our cat and will definitely be using her from here on out!! Hiring Nakisha is a blessing for your pet care
We couldn’t be happier with our pet sitter! They were reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring with our pet. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pet was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Gibsonton on Rover is $18.87 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 3,547 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gibsonton. 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.
