“Tyler is just so great! She really goes the extra mile in taking care of my older cat - administering multiple medications, checking on her health, and just being extra sensitive to her needs. My normally shy cat really responds to all the extra love!”

“Paris is terrific! Zane, who is quite shy as he is new to my home, took an immediate liking to Paris. He cuddled with her every time she came to visit him. She took great care of him and kept me well informed either pictures after every visit. I am fortunate to have found Paris and I will always ask her back to take care of Zane whenever I am away!”

“Vinny looked after Walter for six weeks and went above and beyond in looking after him. He has looked after him several times now and I would wholeheartedly recommend him as a sitter.”
About: About Me Hi! I’m a recently retired teacher who loves cats, dogs, and the joy they bring to everyday life. I’ve owned both cats and dogs since age seven and truly enjoy spending time with animals, learning their personalities, and giving them plenty of attention and care. I currently have my own cat, so I’m unable to board pets in my home. However, I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort and familiar surroundings of their own home and have schedule flexibility to provide pet visits that are convenient for you and your pet(s). I have recently retired from teaching and moved from Florida to Connecticut to be close to my son, daughter-in-law, and beautiful new granddaughter. My schedule is very flexible and I would love to meet some new pets to give my care and attention. Retirement has given me a flexible schedule, and I’d love to help care for your pets while you’re away. I’m available for: - Overnight stays in your home - Drop-in visits - Walks and playtime - Feeding, companionship, and routine care As a former teacher, I’m responsible, patient, dependable, and attentive to details. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pets—and your home—are in caring hands
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over ten years. I grew up with a wheaten terrier who I loved for 14 years, and since then I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and sizes. Whether your pup is playful, sensitive, or needs a calm, steady presence, I’m very comfortable adapting to what they need. Most clients book me for in-home dog care, as it allows dogs to stay in their familiar environment and maintain their routine. I offer structure, gentle companionship, and clear communication every step of the way so you can travel or work confidently, knowing your dog is happy and supported. I also work as a realtor, which means I’m extremely respectful in people’s homes and very used to handling keys, security systems, and property access professionally and discreetly. Pets warm to me quickly, and owners tell me they appreciate the calm confidence I bring to their home. Although I do offer boarding on occasion, my space is best suited for dogs that aren’t excessively vocal, as I live in a condo. All normal barking is perfectly fine — I just may not be the best match for dogs that howl or bark nonstop. My goal is always the same: to make sure your pup feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m looking to add to my day with some exercise and fun with your dog(s)! I particularly make sure I am available at regular meal times for pets. I can provide companionship, exercise and care for your pet at your home or at my home. While I am out of the house for about 3-4 hours some days, I work from home a lot.
About: I have a 10 year old dog and regularly dogsit for friends and family. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter a couple times a week, where I enjoy walking and spending time with the dogs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and want owners to feel confident knowing their pet is in good hands! Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy! I have a 10 year old dog and I frequently dogsit for friends and family so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities. I enjoy spending time outdoors, doing for walks and making sure dogs receive plenty of attention, exercise and affection. It is most important to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable and loved. I enjoy going on walks, spending time outdoors, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I understand the importance of maintaining routine and consistency with feeding schedules, exercise and daily routines.

“Both my cat and I love JJ! As nervous as I was to leave my beloved kitty behind as I traveled for the holidays, I knew when I met JJ that I would have nothing to worry about. Clearly an animal-lover, JJ made sure my cat was well taken care of physically and emotionally. Each day she sent me photos of him doing a variety of things - eating, drinking, playing, lounging - so I knew he was happy and healthy. Even though my cat is typically shy around strangers, he warmed up to JJ after the first visit. I would absolutely recommend JJ for any of your pet care needs. If I ever have to leave town without my cat again, JJ will be the person I trust to care for him while I'm gone. Thank you, JJ!”

About: I’ve had cats since I was 13 and have many years of hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs with different personalities and needs.

I’d love to get on a weekly schedule of dog walking to make activity normal for their lives and mine! I’m very respectful and professional about being invited into someone’s home to care for their pet. I’m a stickler for rules and standards, and will always communicate what the proper care is before I arrive for your pet.
“Shannon did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away. She kept him entertained and gave very attentive care to him. She was prompt and reliable the entire time. And my cat loved to have her around! Will definitely book her again!”

“Catherine took wonderful care of my boys, 2 large male cats, on 2 separate occasions. What I particularly appreciated so very much was that when I came home after being away, they were very calm and not at all needy, which is a sure sign to me that they were well taken care of. It was just so reassuring to me to know that! I will be using Catherine regularly in the future!”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Guilford is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $29 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.

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.
