About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for the last 7-8 years for my family, friends, and neighbors. They have trusted me with walking, feeding, and overall loving their furry friends! When my family first got our dog in 2020, I assisted in training him and learning how to take care of a puppy. I have also helped to take care of my roommates pet dog and cat in these last few months as well! During the summer of 2024, my dog suddenly went paralyzed and lost function of his back legs. We had to learn how to take care of him and walk him using unconventional ways, while teaching him how to learn to walk again, so I have experience with a dog who has been partially disabled (but he has regained his ability to walk and is doing great!!) I recently graduated from Miami University, Ohio with my masters degree in speech-language pathology. I just moved back to Illinois and am looking to do some dog walking and pet care/love this summer before starting a new job in the schools this upcoming August as a speech-language pathologist. I will adhere to any requests that the client has. I am willing to put them in their crates, give them treats, play with them in the yard, or go for a nice long walk with them. It really comes down to the clients preference and I will stick to their normal routine!!
About: I have taken care of animals for it seems like my whole life. I have experience administering medication both orally and through syringes and love to spoil dogs when walks and cuddles. I work for a school district so I my school day runs from 7:30-2:30, so no pet would be alone for long. I can do weekdays and weekends. I have experience going into someone’s home and watching their animals from there. I find it’s easier for on them when they are in their own home environment. I follow your routine and instructions and will let you know if I have any questions or anything comes up.
“Madeline did an AMAZING job with my reactive, anxious pup. I was nervous to leave my girl with a sitter, but Madeline took great care of her, and sent me lots of photos and updates. I will definitely book with her again!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jessica. She is truly a delight—patient, caring, and incredibly attentive with my dog. Her calm and loving nature puts me completely at ease, knowing my pup is in the best hands when I can’t be there. I feel so much peace of mind knowing she will be there for my dog, and I’m truly grateful to have found her. Highly recommend!”
“Doreen took great care of my two cats, one of which needs 1/2 pill with his food. She posted updates after each visit with tons of wonderful pictures! Will definitely rebook with her for any future trips. :)”
“Janet is our go-to Rover when it comes to caring for our pets. Always does an excellent job at giving them attention and care. She is an excellent communicator - highly recommended!”
“Rachael did an amazing job taking care of our babies! We loved the photo and video updates at each session! We would definitely rebook and recommend anyone else to book with Rachael! Thanks!!”
About: I’ve grown up taking care of both cats and dogs, including small and large breeds. I currently have a chocolate lab who I walk, feed, and play with every day. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and cats, and I understand the extra patience, attention, and care they may need. I love cats and am comfortable feeding them, changing litter, playing with them, and giving them lots of attention. I’m reliable, caring, and truly enjoy being around animals! I’m home from college until August 10th. I’m available all day on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 8 AM–3PM for dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits for both cats and dogs! I’m also available on weekends and am flexible with timing. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and safe. I’m always mindful, respectful, and responsible when caring for pets in someone else’s home. I make sure to keep a clean and safe environment, follow instructions carefully, and handle everything with care. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and home, and I’ll always do my best to make both you and your pets feel comfortable and secure.
“Katy did a great job taking care of my dog. She was on time and provided great updates. She spent time playing and cuddling with my dog so I feel very comfortable using her services again.”
About: hihi I'm Ariel! I have owned, fostered, and rehabilitated animals my whole life. I have grown up in a home full of dogs and cats at all times and fostering even more!

I have experience with dogs big, small, old, young, disabled etc. I have fostered and pet sitted for plenty of cats, kittens, adults, seniors!

“Ellie and Pork Chop warmed up to Jaime very quickly! She was great with them and they really enjoyed their walk with her. They are definitely looking forward to more visits.”
“So happy Jessica was available to drop in for my Golden Retriever on short notice. She fed and walked her and provided lots of photos throughout. Thanks for caring for Samantha!”
“Iwonka was awesome! She graciously accommodated a (very) last minute booking request. My cats warmed up to her right away. Will definitely book again! Thank you!!”
“Audrey went above and beyond for my three babies while I was away this weekend. She is so sweet and gentle with my animals and followed all instructions perfectly. Took great pictures and spent extra time with them if she was able to. Super flexible hours and days as well. I’ll hire her any time I need a sitter in the future. Thanks so much, Aubrey!”
“Morgan did an awesome job taking care of my 4 cats. She dropped in every day in the scheduled timeframe and ensured the cats were fed, their boxes cleaned and spent time with them. She even cleaned when one of the kitties threw up.”
About: I have had a long love for animals,growing up with cats and dogs. As an adult we had a beloved German Shepherd mix that was our ring bearer. And we were blessed to have him for 11 years. Now I'm a proud dog mom to 1 terrier mix. I've taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since I was in Middle School for neighbors and friends. I love going on walks and playing fetch. I work part-time at a school so right now I'm off during the summer but during the school year I would be able to work around my schedule and have several days off during the school week to pop in before and after or on my days off. I would love to pop into your house for visiting. I will follow your dogs normal routine. Please let me know how to help your animal feels most comfortable.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Gilberts on Rover is $16.65 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 2,025 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gilberts. 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 Gilberts. On Rover:

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.
