“Anna was wonderful with our Bean and Boba. She did everything we asked of her while we were away for a night. I will definitely contact Anna for a drop-in next time.”
About: I have taken care of my own pets (two cats and a dog), as well as those of my friends and neighbors since I was a child. I am experienced with reactive and anxious dogs, and am experienced in administering medication. I can take your dog on long walks (5+ miles) and hikes if that’s their thing. I will always give your pets the same care and affection I give my own! My work schedule is extremely flexible. Most of my work obligations are mid-morning, and the rest of my day/evening is free. I walk several miles per day on my own, and would love to bring your dog along with me. I will show your pet the same love and affection I give to my own pets. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness are my top priority, and I will adjust my services to fit their individual needs.
“Mya was great! Very communicative. It was a very stressful trip for the humans, so having Mya there with the pups made it a little easier knowing that they were in good hands and safe. 10/10 will definitely request again.”
“Lisa is wonderful!! We video chatted beforehand and I felt very confident in her capabilities and attention to my Remi. She left little debriefings at every visit and let me know when she was concerned about his urine production (as he has a medical condition). She played with him and even checked to make sure my flat was not getting too hot during a heat wave. She’s lovely!”
“I’m so thankful to have found such good folks to look in on my little one. David and Lisa were professional, reliable and kept me updated daily with great photos. I highly reccomend them!”
About: I'm reliable and have cared for a wide variety of dog sizes and ages. I have cared for senior dogs and other dogs with special care requirements. I'm available to take care of any pets any day of the week at your house. My two dogs are not guaranteed to get along with yours and they are both adverse to new people so I cannot host any pets. I can do overnights at your house as my pets have other carers in the house. I greet your dog when I see them, let them outside if that's an option or go for a walk immediately. I will feed them, refill their water bowl and play with them. We will go on a walk if not already done. I make sure they have enough water and pets before I leave.
“10 out of 10, I recommend! Jennifer was amazing! This was my first experience with Rover and when I messaged Jennifer she responded almost immediately to set up a meet and greet with the pups! She was also very thorough asking care questions that I forgot to mention. I will definitely be reaching out in the near future!”
“Valerie was amazing, we are very grateful for her care of Bisou. We felt incredibly comfortable knowing Bisou was taken care of and Valerie was to attentive to her special ways 👑🐈”
“I had to cancel with Kimberly because my Lady was hospitalized before my vacation started but she was so gracious and responsive and kind. Got back to me very quickly every time I had a question. I look forward to using her in the future”
“Allison was the sweetest! I felt totally at ease leaving the care of my fur babies in her hands, she was super respectful of my place and kind enough to make a pre-visit meeting so we could go over things in person, especially appreciated since my travel plans were last minute. Would book again in a heartbeat.”
About: I will start off with saying, I am insured with PCI! I’ve had dogs my whole life, I have 5 at the moment. 2 cats, a (Yearling), tortoise, frog many animals. I have experience with plenty of animals. I have animal sat for multiple families and friends and they have loved me! I work fulltime but can make time for your babies. I treat your babies like mine. I make sure they get the love and care they need. I slowly introduce myself, if you need your dog crated I can do that. If all we need to do for your pet is we meet a few times before petsitting that is okay, or if you need me to bring my dog so your dog can meet mine. Whatever helps with your animal to feel comfortable and safe.
About: I've always been a pet owner since I was a little kid. Cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, you name it. I've had my own cat, Sebastian with me for the past 5 years :) Happy to watch any other furry friends! I am free all weekdays and work from home so I am always here to give your furry friends lots of attention and walks when needed. I have lots of toys and treats in the house and live in a safe and friendly neighborhood with lots of parks and grassy areas for walks with dogs. There is also a cat in the home for them to play with :)
“I'm very happy that I found Hailey & Joshua. They took great care of my shy, rescue kitty, making her feel comfortable while I was away on a long vacation. They provided excellent communication every step of the way, exceeding all of my expectations. I would absolutely rebook them again.”
About: Note: I now have a toddler and a newborn so please be aware I will be bringing them with me to jobs. My toddler is extremely loving and gentle with animals and responds immediately when told to leave an animal alone. Additionally, please be aware that I am recovering from several years of physical disability. I'm doing MUCH better but still get winded easily, so I can take your dog on a gentle walk but not a run. -------- I come from a family of pet lovers: my mom raised guide dogs for the blind before she had a family, and ever since I was a baby I've been around animals of all kinds. My first pet care job was caring for a friend's cats when I was a tender 6-years-old! Since then, I have cared for numerous horses, cats, dogs, birds, fish, poultry, reptiles (including snakes!), emu, donkey, goats, rabbits.... You name it! My strongest experience lies with domestic dogs and cats. Starting at age 17 I helped a neighbor raise and train two rescue pups from the middle east, which presented a very unique set of challenges and, more recently, two other sweet doggos who needed regular medication. I am very involved with each pet, taking time to learn their unique personality. I make a point of focusing on the loved pet I am with at the time, with physical play and mental stimulation a huge part of my time — even older pups just need patience, encouragement, and a gentler style of play! As of Spring 2026 I am currently available pretty much any time! My only limitation is not having a car while my husband is at work during the day but I'm also able to use the bus when needed. I have 14 years of experience sitting both indoor and outdoor pets, helping continue and enforce training, administering medication in a variety of ways, and encouraging the unenthused to move and exercise. When you book me I will ask a series of questions to help best understand how I can help you and your pet in the specific situation YOU are in! Pets aren't one size fits all and neither are my services. :)
“Julie is always great! She goes above and beyond. I had a mini-issue at home unrelated to Norman (my cat) and she helped me resolve it after leaving my house. She always shows care and pays close attention to Norman’s needs as he is…interesting. I highly recommend Julie! Norman loves her so much, we refer to her as Norman’s Julie.”
About: Raised with dogs but current owner of cats. I'm comfortable with all breeds large and small. I was raised with Jack Russell Terriers and went through dog training with them. Rover is a great way for me to get some dog-love. <3 Use promo code link below for discount: https://www.rover.com/sit/jessib36134 I work from home and own my own business. This gives me lots of flexibility to care for pets and give them dedicated time when THEY need it, not just between meetings. Our home - cats only. We have a bedroom across from our master that will keep your cat(s) separated from our house cats, while still keeping them in the center of our attention. The room has windows to watch birds and I often bring my laptop into the room to keep our guest pets company while I work. Your home - I can drive to your residence as needed to check-in on, feed, play with, and/or walk your pet.
“Naiomi is the best! She takes such amazing care of all of my animals (cats, dog, frogs), but she also goes above and beyond in every other way. Everything is so neat and clean after she has been here and she thoughtfully brought in a very large heavy package from chewy in my absence. The peace of mind I have when she is here such a gift.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gilberton
Emma was awesome, we had her do multiple day time drop ins for about a week. We had a couple of last min modifications and as Rover was able to, she was able to accommodate. We have dogs (great dane and an American Staffordshire terrier), cat, chickens and bunnies and she was able to check on them as well. Very helpful, communication was great and we got pictures for every visit she made.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 6,309 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gilberton. 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 Gilberton. On Rover:
- 92% 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.
