About: I always been around animals since I was little, either it been my friends, neighbors, or strays. But every animal would get love and care from me. I only owned a pet for a day due to family issues but always wished I could have pets of my own. I am currently available part time, for me and brother share a car for work. I am also restarting school so I am able to work with the owners on a scedule. When ever I go to my friends house, I always make sure I follow the rules my friends have for the pets. I show them love and care and spend time with them while I am at the friends house.

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m a veterinary assistant graduate and gained hands-on experience during my internship at an animal shelter, caring for both dogs and cats. I’m patient, gentle, dependable, and comfortable working with different personalities and energy levels. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and I’m happy to give them plenty of attention, exercise, and love while their family is away. I have an open and flexible schedule, so I’m able to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always important to me. I’m gentle, attentive, and respectful of your home, and I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine.

About: I am currently a biology major in veterinary school. My love for animals began as a child with my mom being a crazy cat lady and with the start of FFA in high school. I have now decided to carry my love of animals into my young g adult life. I am in college and work part time as a nanny for a divorced dad along with 2 other families that use me about 1-2 times a week only for a-couple hours. The dad I work for has his kids every other week so during the off week my schedule is very open. When he has his kids I work for him for 2-3 days out of the week. I provide a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment for every pet. My home has a spacious backyard for outdoor play, and I have two cats, a leopard gecko, and a tropical fish tank. I’ll follow your pet’s routines and care instructions closely, and I can keep pets separated as needed to help everyone feel secure.

“I was impressed with Suzie from the minute she walked in the door. My German shepherd is anxious and kiddish, and she warmed to Suzie with in minutes- this is unheard of! Suzie kept me updated with messages and photos, and was able to drop by our house twice a day to walk/feed/ tend to Raya. we came home to a happy, well cared for pup. I would highly recommend Suzie!”

About: I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every pet with the same love and respect I’d give my own. I have two of my own doggies! I always adapt to your pets individual needs. I’m patient, gentle, and never in a rush. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate same-day bookings or last-minute requests. Whether you need a regular walker or occasional drop-ins, I’ll do my best to work around your need just send me a message! I totally get how important it is to know your pet is safe and in good hands. I always do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, calm, and cared for whether we’re out on a walk or just hanging out during a dropin. I’ll follow whatever routine you give me, keep a close eye on them, and treat them like one of my own.

Paesha is the perfect sitter for my two cats! They are shy and slow to open up to new people, but she was able to help them feel comfortable within a few visits. She follows care directions perfectly and went above and beyond with her attention to care and detail for my babies. I would highly recommend her for any pet needs!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Gosford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Gosford is $20 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 34 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gosford. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gosford. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
