“Kirsten was fantastic, she did a pre-visit check beforehand and visited our cat early each morning. She sent updates and photos, and let our cat outside to play, just like she’s used to. We would recommend Kirsten and would definitely book her again.”
“Makaila was wonderful with my 3 big dogs! They loved her the moment she came for a meet and greet. I knew they were in good hands and didn’t have to worry while on vacation. She sent lots of pictures and videos, which I absolutely loved! I will absolutely hire her again, and I highly recommend her!”
“Dawn was great! Gave me so much peace of mind to know someone was checking on my little guy while I was gone. Plenty of pictures and made sure to give my cat a lot of love every visit.”
“If I could give a 1000 stars I would!!! Torie was absolutely a gem. It was last minute and she truly is Mrs Dolittle. Willow our dachshund had such an amazing time. And went right to Torie i know he felt loved because, the pictures really tell a story. Thank you soo much Torie for loving him the way we do. We will be forever thankful to you. Love Willow and his family.”
“Terry was so amazing with our little Wrigley. I am a high maintenance owner and Wrigley is a high maintenance dog and she exceeded every expectation. She came to see him three times a day while we were away and provided detailed updates, pictures, and lots of love for our boy. Can’t wait to book with her again!! ❤️”
“Carolyn was fantastic! This was the first time we used a cat sitter while we were away, but we had nothing to worry about with Carolyn. She was so great with our cat- she really took lots of time with him and made him feel comfortable and loved while we were gone. She kept us updated each day (and made us laugh with her daily reports and photos of our cat). Would highly recommend Carolyn!”
“Marii is the absolute sweetest, and did such a great job checking in on our doggie! She was kind, communicative, and made sure to give us a thorough update/lots of pictures, even though the check in was just an hour long! She also came up meet Lucy before the actual check-in, which was so nice of her! Thank you, will definitely be booking again!!!”
About: What sets me apart is my commitment to providing a truly elevated standard of care. I approach every pet with a tailored, detail-oriented mindset—taking the time to understand their routines, preferences, and personality so their experience feels seamless and stress-free. I prioritize reliability, clear communication, and consistency, ensuring you’re always informed and confident while you’re away. Beyond basic care, I focus on creating a calm, structured, and attentive environment where your pet feels secure and genuinely cared for. My goal is not just to meet expectations, but to exceed them with professionalism, trust, and a high level of personal attention. Pet care is a natural part of our daily and weekly routine because my partner and I work together as a team to provide consistent, attentive care for every animal we look after. We structure our schedules so that one of us is always available, which allows for flexibility and ensures pets get the time, attention, and exercise they need. On a daily basis, we prioritize walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins, making sure each pet’s specific needs and routines are followed closely. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening care, we divide responsibilities in a way that keeps everything running smoothly and stress-free for the pets. Throughout the week, we also plan for longer walks, park visits, or extra enrichment activities depending on the pet’s energy level and personality. Because there are two of us, we’re able to provide extra reliability, backup coverage, and more personalized attention. Caring for animals isn’t something we squeeze into our schedule—it’s a central part of our routine and something we genuinely enjoy building our days around. My partner and I work together to provide attentive and reliable care in our clients’ homes, always focusing on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy in their environment. In a client’s home, we make it a priority to stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—so they feel secure and experience as little disruption as possible. We also keep the home tidy, provide regular updates, and make sure pets get plenty of affection and attention while their owners are away. Because there are two of us, in the times both of us are present, we’re able to offer extra flexibility, consistent supervision, and dependable backup. This team approach allows us to give each pet personalized care and plenty of one-on-one attention.

“Excellent experience with Jessica. Professional, reliable, and great communication throughout. She truly went above and beyond, which gave me complete confidence leaving my dog in her care. I would absolutely book again.”
About: I have years of experience taking care of pets, both professionally and at home. I am a former dog groomer, so I understand dog and cat behavior and know how to keep them feeling safe and comfortable! I'd love the opportunity to take care of your furry family members. I currently have open availability to take care of your pets in the comfort of your home. I would love to go on walks with your dogs, and even offer in home bathing and grooming services for an additional charge. I will be sure to keep your pets safe and happy during our visits, playtime, and walks. I would love to send you updates throughout our times together if you'd prefer!
“Emma saved the day! I had a last minute trip out of town come up and Emma was able to do three drop in visits with my cats. She kept me updated with pictures the whole time and even got my normally shy cat to come out for some love. I would recommend Emma in a heartbeat.”
“Communication was a little difficult, and we benefited from a flexible schedule, but they got my normally reserved cat to open up and play with them, so I can wholly believe that they were taking the absolute best care of my pet.”
“Olivia accommodated a short-notice request without missing a beat. Took the time to meet Rosco and Roxy beforehand, sent great updates and photos throughout the day. It was clear they enjoyed every visit and were well taken care of. Reliable, communicative, genuinely caring. Highly recommend.”
“Tara took wonderful care of our 10 week old puppy! She came to meet her beforehand and spent time with her to get to know her. She asked a lot of questions and gave us some great advice from her past experiences with dogs. She is very knowledgeable and loves animals. We will definitely be asking Tara to come back again!”
About: I have been house sitting overnight since I was 14. I have experience working with dogs, cats, mice, and flying squirrels. Believe it or not, I have taken care of dogs who were indoor-trained only.I am also an experienced dog walker- not just with my own dogs but with friends' dogs that I've loved as my own. **serious inquiries only** please do not send me a booking request if you're going to ghost me after I respond or if you plan to book with another sitter. You'd be surprised by how often this happens. I abide by the safety precautions at the homes I stay at (fences, ring cameras, etc). When I stay with indoor cats, I take extra precautions when leaving the house to make sure the cats don't escape.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Groton
Melissa is the absolute best. She took amazing care of our cats while we were away on our honeymoon. It was the longest we had ever been away from them, but we had completely confidence in Melissa. The cats (especially Milo) love her, which is so much peace of mind!
Brianna did a great job of taking care of our two dogs and one cat. We are new to our home and did not want to leave them alone for a full day and evening. We were very reassured to leave them in such capable hands. Everyone was just as calm and relaxed when we returned as if we had been there with them all day!
Destiny did such an amazing job taking care of my fur baby. She is such a pleasure to work with. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter honestly. Destiny was very communicative and my cat bonded to her faster than he has with any stranger. As long as she is available she has my business

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Groton on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Groton. 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.
