About: Hi! I am a stay-at-home mom of a human baby and two fur babies. I previously worked in upstate NY for a dog training company, My Dog Hikes, as a dog hiker where we took dogs from NYC into the woods for full day dog-care fun. Because of this I am comfortable giving medication and using training commands. I also have a Cattle Dog (Clayton) and Black Lab mix (Tarzan) of my own. I would love to take your little ones on the trails, play fetch in the yard, or just snuggle on the couch with lots of pets. I have a very open schedule so can work around any timeframe you need! As childcare is very expensive, please note before booking me that my son, Eli (3), will be joining me on my jobs. We can always meet beforehand to see if it's a good fit! Additionally - I do not accept requests for recurring weekly services and prefer them to be sporadic. As I am a stay-at-home mom your typical work week is when I am available. I can be flexible around your schedule! I can also stop by to spend some time with your pets on the weekend, so you can go enjoy a trip away. (: I do not care for dogs in my own home as my Lab does not like other dogs. In your home, however, I take care to follow all instructions closely! I take many pictures so prepare for cuteness overload. I also have experience working with a dog training/walking company in NYC and am comfortable with a wide array of needs.
“Valerie is amazing! We were lucky enough that she was able to do a couple of very last minute drop-in visits, and our dog was immediately at ease with her. Valerie was also great with communication during her visits, which gave me the peace of mind that our dog was in good hands.”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs for over 24 years and truly enjoy caring for them. Every pet is different. Some are playful and full of energy, others are quiet and gentle, and I’m happy to adjust to what they need. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I offer overnight house sitting so your pet can stay relaxed at home while you’re away. I follow your instructions carefully, keep things tidy, and do my best to give your pet plenty of attention and calm, loving care I currently work part-time, so I have flexible availability for pet care. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays after 2 pm. When I’m house sitting, I plan my schedule around your pet’s routine so they get the attention, walks, and care they need. When caring for pets in your home, I try to keep their routine as normal and calm as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any special instructions. I treat your home with respect, keep things clean, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable.
“Constance spent a great deal of time at our meet and greet getting to know our dogs and me as the dog mom. I was so comfortable after that first meeting I asked her to check in on our cats that week! When I tell you she got the best photos of our “large and not so in charge” cat Henry Purrito…well, it made us happy. I could tell they were well cared for and happy. She’s responsive to requests, flexible and dependable. I’m looking forward to her walking our dogs five days a week!”
“Great help looking after our cats! My one silly boy managed to lock himself in the bathroom within a day of us leaving for our trip, so every visit Jerry made sure to check that he could see the cats before he left so there wouldn’t be anymore jailed kitties - thanks again!”
“Mary checked on our two cats while we were out of town. She did great! We appreciated all her updates and pictures. We will definitely reach out to her again for future pet sitting needs!”
“Natascha took great care of our two Maine Coon cats, Remy & Ratchet! Her dedication is truly appreciated. The feeding routine was followed precisely, ensuring they ate well while we were away. The daily photo updates showing them lounging, eating & engaging with Natascha were wonderful and reassured us completely. The prompt communication made us feel so comfortable leaving them in her care. Booking again would not be a hesitation and we highly recommend this sitter to anyone seeking a truly caring and professional cat sitter.”
“If I could give her 100 stars, I would! I was traveling and couldn’t into our regular boarding and no other boarding facilities had openings. So I checked out Rover & booked a stay with Codi! It couldn’t have gone ANY better. She would send regular pictures with updates about their activity and well being! The whole trip I was able to relax knowing that are fur babies were being loved and truly attended to! I will absolutely recommend Codi & 100% will rebook with her again!”
“My cat loved Kimberly and she was able to complete all tasks asked. She took adorable pictures of her as well which I appreciated. Would recommend her as a pet sitter! Thank you so much!”
“Katherine and her son were wonderful to work with! They took wonderful care of my two dogs and provided regular updates and photos while I was away traveling. I know my dogs appreciated the cuddles and attention they received since they both struggle when their routine is adjusted. Boscoe found a new best friend with Katherine’s son 😊 Katherine also went above and beyond caring for our chickens too! She made sure they were well fed, watered, and that the brooding box was safe as I was concerned with the safety of a heat lamp. Katherine is my first choice in dog sitter for all future travel/dog sitting needs. Thank you!”
“Princess help me out tremendously for my 30 day trip abroad. Did two weekly visits and followed the -admittedly- overly specific instructions required for all of my cats including their food, litter-robot, and more. Made my trip so much less stressful!”
“Khayl is responsible and trustworthy. Our cats are afraid of everyone. But she manages to coax at least one of them out when she drops in. I highly recommend Khayl. She keeps us posted and stress free when we are not home.”
“Sabrina was great while I was on my recent trip! My cat has very specific dietary needs and she followed all the instructions perfectly! She took great care of him with her drop-in visits and I will happily book with her again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gorst
Gina has always exceeded our expectations when caring for our two cats. This is her third time visiting our little babies and each time we leave them we can breathe knowing they will be taking care of by her. If you’re are debating whether to book her, DONT. There’s no one we would rather book with to watch our cats. We brag about her to all our friends. Thanks Gina.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Gorst on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 6,162 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gorst. 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.
