About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since I was young and continue to care for my senior cat whom I’ve had for the last 12 years. I have experience walking dogs ranging from small to large sizes, and live near a forest preserve trail that would be perfect for their walks! Friends and neighbors have also relied on me to do drop-in feedings as well. I work full-time, 4 days a week, evening shift. So I am available most mornings and have a pretty flexible 3-day weekend schedule. I live in a building complex that has a fenced in little dog park for your pup to run around in. I’m also near a forest preserve trail if they prefer longer walks to explore nature. Cats will have a safe, quiet space to stay with a large window to sun bathe in the mornings and cozy blankets to snuggle in.
“Super sweet. Definitely my new designated cat sitter. My kitties love her!!! Attentive and communicative. You can tell she loves all the pets she watches.”
“Tiffany was able to take on a last minute requests after an emergency medical situation with our previous sitter. Great communication - making sure we are updated on our cat’e welfare and care. I’m glad we gave her a try - and so should you.”
“Samantha was awesome! Great communication both while booking and during her dog sitting, timely arrival, and just a lovely person. We felt very fortunate to find her on rover!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my household quite literally since birth. I’ve cared for animals since I was a small child. I have also fostered a dog. I have a hound mix named Mila and a cat named Cindy Lou. I raised both since they were very young so I have experience with caring for a puppy and a kitten. I just have a genuine deep love for animals. I just left my last job in search of something more fulfilling so my schedule is extremely flexible at the moment, so my availability has a lot more to do with when I am needed. My animals are like babies. They really, truly are my family. So please know that I don’t underestimate the importance of caution when dealing with the safety of other people’s fur babies.
“For anyone looking for a sitter go ahead and just hire Jacqueline now! Jacqueline dropped everything to come and meet my cat and then take over watching her for 10 days when our previous sitter cancelled at the very last minute. She truly loves animals and was so happy to take care of my cat! She provided amazing detailed daily feedback on my kitty, was immediately responsive to any messages I sent her, and really just made me feel that my cat was in great hands when I was away. I can’t recommend her more! Absolutely hire her now!”
“We had a great experience with Jackie. She came to our home daily to feed and check on our cat. Jackie was always on time, reliable, kind and cared about making sure our cat was comfortable and well taken care of. We loved seeing pictures she sent. Her son played with our cat which made us so happy and reassured that our cat was getting extra love and attention. It gave us a real peace of mind when we were away. We would definitely recommend her and happily book her again!”
“This was my first time with a pet sitter and Amina gave me all the confidence to use this as an option!! She is the kindest and has superb communication and genuinely cares about cats :) don’t hesitate to book her!!”
About: I have about 15 years of pet care, not just with my own pets, but as a dog walker, a pet sitter, and a rescuer. I have experience with dogs and cats! As someone who believes that animal rights are super integral, I tried to go above and beyond for the animals in my neighborhood, even rescuing, squirrels and raccoons to make sure that they have a fighting chance of survival. In addition, I have experience with special-needs animals as well. I know how to administer insulin, do different kinds of oral medication’s, and even eardrops. Lastly, my experience ranges from puppies and kitties all the way to our senior puppies (older dogs never stop being our puppies). Pet care is ingrained into every part of my life. Mainly because I have my own pets, so everything from waking up early to take them out, to feedings and making sure that they get enough playtime! In terms of how I fit into your life, I do have a very flexible schedule as I’m an independent contractor, so I do have more flexibility. I love an early morning of dog walking, so for any early birds, I’m your girl! I’m someone who believes that there are fundamentals for all care and those need to be followed but I also understand that a lot of pets have specialized care. For example, I have a wobbly cat so everything from how she goes potty where she gets to hang out and how she gets her food is very specific because she has a disability. I am open to Pat who might need some specialized care or need medication. As I have the experience of dealing with pets who might need a little bit of extra care! I also try my absolute best to make sure that my environment fits the needs of a pet so that they can feel comfortable and feel like they are right at home.
“I've only ever had family members check in on my best cat buddy, Vinny, and I was apprehensive hiring a sitter for my 4 day vacation. I have to say Saskia was amazing and was able to get my shy cat to warm up to her within just a day or two. Saskia sent me plenty of pictures and her report card on her visits were thorough and put my mind at ease. She was on time at every single visit (and for our pre-interview), and she was very responsive and communicative, which I love. Vinny, my 10 year old domestic short hair became comfortable with Sas and allowed her to brush him and give scratches. He doesn't warm up to just anyone, so that says a lot. I will 100% book with Saskia going forward, and I'll recommend her to anyone who asks. 😻😊”
“My cat received caring and helpful attention from Kara, the cat sitter. Especially when, as she is so friendly, kitty Francine did let her approach! It's the first time ever in this former hoarding victim's life, a stranger was allowed to see, and photograph, Francine! Thank you so much Kara!”
About: I've always taken care of my dogs growing up. My dog right now requires a very in depth feeding and medication regimen. She is 13 years old and has a special diet with a very timed out schedule for her medications. I also have experience with young dogs/puppies. I have lots of experience with older cats and a little with kittens, but not a ton. I work in food service during the day, so I have tons of time in the afternoon/evening and night to care for your pets! I can also move my schedule around if needed I've had dogs throughout all my life that have had vastly different temperaments, so I know how to care for animals of all kinds.
About: I have taken care of my friend's pitbull. His name is Blue and he is the cutest most dog ever. If I could post a picture of him, I would. But I would take care of their dogs when they went on vacations or on work trips. I would go into their house to feed, clean, and play with blue. The owner would want me to take a picture of blue every time I went. They would be out for a while, so I had to stay the night, or I would pick up blue and take him to the park or Starbucks for a pup cup. Blue was not the only pets they had! They had a cat and bunnies, so I did go out to their coops and feed, clean, and take care of any other responsibilities needs with the animals. The cat named lea that would not stop talking when I entered. I did the same for her as the other animals feed, care, and play. I am a flight attendant and I am flexible. I have a couple of days off during the week. We can communicate my schedule even a month in advance because we are awarded our schedule every 18th of every month. On my days off I can start early, mid-day, late, let talk about it :D If there is a certain way that the animal needs to be taken care of, I take the precautions and care for that animal. For example, blue the animal I took care for my friend stool was watery she told me it happens a lot because he either eating too much or he is lonely. So, at first, I was giving him less of what he is used to and the problem persisted. Next action was to spend more time with blue, and I did that and his stool improved.
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I grew up with two dogs of my own and have since had the opportunity to pet sit for many different kinds of animals. One of my most memorable experiences was caring for 10 newborn puppies by myself, which taught me just how much patience, attentiveness, and responsibility goes into caring for animals. Whether I’m looking after a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a cat who prefers to do their own thing, I always take the time to understand each animal’s individual needs and personality. For me, the most important part of pet sitting is building trust, both with your pet and with you. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing that your animal is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friend! I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m happy to accommodate your preferred feeding, walking, playtime, and care schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, learn your pet’s routine and personality, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and safe.
About: Since I was a teen, I've always been the go-to person asked to pet sit for people when they went on vacation. I've done it for 10+ years. I recently graduated from law school in May, and I am currently studying for the BAR. I would love to make some money on the side, caring for your special guys and girls! Currently, I have full availability because my sole focus is studying for the BAR. So I can make myself available at any time day or night! I love animals, and I recognize how much they crave attention, especially when they're missing their owner. I would love to provide that necessary attention in your absence. I will make sure that your place is the same as it was when I got there. With a fresh litter box cleaning for cats.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and size's. Friends, neighbors, and family often rely on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with senior dogs, energetic puppies, and pets with special routines. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight care, I always treat every pet like my own. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide morning, midday, and evening visits during the week. Weekends are open for walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I’m responsible, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands. I live in a pet-friendly apartment that’s clean, safe, and comfortable for your furry friend. I take frequent walks and make sure pets get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I’m very mindful of leash safety, secure entrances, and keeping pets calm in new environments. Whether your dog loves outdoor strolls or prefers cozy naps, I make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Golf
Jiayi was terrific! She kept Me updated with excellent photos of the cats and chores completed, feeding, litter, taking in mail. She was very thorough with daily communication. The Cats are happy and calm and the house is as I left it. I would definitely use her again!
Tiffany checked in on my cat, Tofu, while I was gone on a week long trip. She was very communicative and sent lots of cute pics. She brought an issue with our automatic feeder to our attention and went above and beyond to help us trouble shoot the issue. Tofu loved Tiffany and we will be booking her again in the future

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Golf is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
