“Our Little Tux is a former feral cat and is very skittish around people other than my husband and me. Becky is a very attentive caregiver and worked with our little gal to ease her stress. We were only gone for a short trip but Becky was able to earn the trust of our young cat so that she came out of hiding. Becky is very responsive and kept us updated with both texts and photos. Thank you, Becky!”
“Kasandra gave great care to my 2 cats during her visit each day. She took great pics of both cats to share with me daily and amazed me that my tuxedo cat came out to her each day since she usually hides from new visitors. I am pleased overall and would choose her again for cat care.”
“Liz arrived at the agreed on time, sent pictures of my cat that doesn't hide, made sure all cat feeding and scooping was completed and successfully negotiated my alarm system Very, very satisfied! Hidden cat is fine by the way.”
About: I have always been an animal lover. I started off working at a pet store and quickly moved up to animal sheltering where I worked closely with the behavior and medical teams to advance my education and career. I now work at a local animal clinic and am happy to handle and care for many various animals. I work great with cats and dogs, and also am comfortable with small animals and reptiles. I am open to birds and other exotics. I am comfortable with special needs animals as I see them often at work and have a few of my own at all. If your pet needs additional care please let me know so I can confirm if it's something I'm capable of accommodating. I work at my local vet week days, and will be able to fit any pet sitting in before and after work, as well as any weekends. My earliest I work is 7:30am and latest I work is 6:30pm so will happily fit my visits before those times as needed. I can happily walk dogs, clean litter boxes, feed any exotics (small animals, fish, reptiles, etc). I'm comfortable administering some medications as well. If you're not sure, just ask me!
“Sydney was an excellent cat sitter. Super responsive and took great care of my cat. She left the house in perfect condition and even pitched in bringing in a grocery order before a impending snow storm.”

“Awesome as always and Sebastian likes Marlaina! Rover: I am completely fine with Marlaina not staying the full 30 minutes, as she gives Sebastian his SubQ fluids, and it does not take 30 minutes to administer. Thank you!”
About: I believe in getting to know each dog’s personality and providing care that makes them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Every dog is unique! 🐶 I work full-time for the Department of Veterans Affairs, with a consistent schedule of 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM, Monday through Friday. Having an early workday allows me to dedicate my afternoons, evenings, and weekends to providing loving, dependable pet care! I believe keeping animals in their own environment helps minimize stress and allows them to maintain their normal routines while their families are away. ❤️

Current healthcare professional ready to assist others when things get busy, available when needed the most. I believe in cleanliness in the home as well.

“Heather took the best care of our Maisey! She treated her like she was her own. Heather also took the greatest pictures and sent us videos of her. They were amazing! Look no further, Heather is your girl! PS-Maisey says thanks for her new toy! ♥️”
About: Hello! I’m Natalie and I would love to be the sitter you choose for your pets! My experience ranges across all breeds of dogs from Pitties to Chihuahuas, cats, rabbits, rats, reptiles, fish and everything in between!. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs at once and it is not a challenge for me. I am a professional veterinary assistant and have been practicing for over 5 years! I have been trained in giving injections like insulin and am able to medicate properly. I am also CPR & First Aid certified for dogs & cats. The treatment of an animal determines their personality and the way they view people. My goal is to make sure every animal is taken care of and treated the way I would treat my own and that is with the utmost affection and patience. I look forward to working with you and your four-legged, two-legged and no-legged friend(s)! Just reach out for specific costs not applicable to just dogs and cats! :) I have a part time job other than this, so all walks and drop in visits will have to be scheduled around that. However, I look forward to fitting your pets into my schedule! I will always care for a client’s pet(s) as if they were my own. Any exercise and playtime needed I can offer. As a veterinary assistant, I understand how important it is for your pets to have a great vacation, just like you may be!
“Tori took amazing care of our kitten and went above and beyond in every way! It was our first time leaving him alone, and she made us feel so comfortable leaving him. She went out of her way to send us lots of pictures and updates! She was amazing with our kitten and had great communication. We will definitely be asking her to come back.”
About: I have taken care of pets all my life. Family, friends, and colleagues. I love to serve all those around me and help to make their lives simpler and less stressful I am a graduate physical therapy student at Messiah University with a predictable class schedule. I am available most mornings, evenings, and lunchtime hours for walks or quick visits. My current housing does not allow me to keep pets in my own home. However, I am available for overnight stays in your home and ensure complete safety and reliability while entrusted with your home.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and I have learned how all dogs have different needs. I know how to be patient with them and how I need to be in order to care for them. I work as a groomer and I am constantly learning how to take care of different dogs and what needs they have. I am able to work with any dog and I am always patient with them. I make sure to give my dog daily exercise and give him appropriate nutrition to keep him healthy. I also clean up outside and bathe him when needed.
“Sophie was wonderful with my puppy! She kept great communication throughout the entire time, sent me the cutest photos every day, and took him on nice walks. He looked so happy and comfortable with her, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She followed all of my instructions very well, and I would definitely trust her to take care of him again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always loved dogs. In 2021, I adopted a German shepherd and joined a training group. Practicing and training with my own dog every day led to me developing a passion for walking and working with dogs. Since then, I have walked many dogs, including structured walks where we practice heel, sit, place, and other basic commands. I also have experience assisting my trainer with client lessons and dog sat overnight for a home with multiple dogs. I have experience with large dogs, and could also help them to practice walking nicely on a leash. I have worked with and walked small, medium, and large dogs, and even a very large dog. I truly care that dogs get enough mental and physical stimulation so that they can live their happiest lives. Even in rainy weather, I enjoy taking out my dog. I’d love to help more dogs get more walks and sniffs in! I have also dropped in to care for friends’ cats and am comfortable providing cat care drop ins as well. I have a fresh water aquarium at home and could feed fish too! I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule. Currently, I prefer to walk dogs during the day or in the afternoon, but I could work with other times. I would be available to walk dogs or drop in Mondays through Fridays and some Saturdays. I’m willing to work with you! I am very respectful of others’ homes and their rules for their pets. When pet sitting in the past, I have used a lock box to access a key and returned the key to the box upon leaving the home. I am also familiar with crate training and can follow instructions for how you’d like your dog to be greeted and let out. I am able to drop in to let your dog out to the bathroom, either in your fenced in yard or on a leash. I am also available for walks, taking dogs to the park, playing, or practicing training.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Good Hope
Sara has been a fantastic sitter for our little furbabys. She gave them so much attention, took photos of the visits and even got them some more play toys to run off and hide. She always goes above and beyond for us and we truly appreciate the service she provides.
Brooke is a wonderful cat sitter! She is never short on affection and attention for my cats, and they are very taken with her. It's hard to find that, and that's why we truly love her so much! I trust Brooke with my babies, as well as my home, which is why she is always welcome here. I very highly recommend Brooke!
Margaret was great! She came twice a day as scheduled and my cat and parrot were well cared for. I was nervous as I had never used Rover and didn’t know Margaret. She was professional, responsible and gave me updates at every visit. I would not hesitate to use her again.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Good Hope is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 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.

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 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.
