“Catrina was amazing as always! This was my second time booking with her and she does such an amazing job sending photos, being responsive and respectful! Love her!”
“Michelle was fantastic! Extremely warm and caring with my cat. I enjoyed every photo Michelle sent daily multiple taken. Michelle even watered my plants without me asking. Her love of cats is evident I highly recommend Michelle.”
About: Hi! I am Christy! I’m married to Jefrey, and we have 3 lively, happy children who love dogs! We currently have no dogs ourselves but we have do have chickens in a coop. I’ve grown up with dogs and provide care for friends pets when they need. We love to provide people with trustworthy, loving care for their pets and know how important that is. I am comfortable with daily medication giving. Although I will be the only one responsible for caring for your pets, we do ask that all dogs be friendly with children and we make sure our children respect dog boundaries. We have a large 6ft privacy fence in the back yard with the front and sides of the fence being privacy fence, and the back part of the fence is chain link. The dogs will be free to go in and out throughout the day as they please. I recently had to leave my job to stay home and care for my children, so I have plenty of time to be home and take care of your pets while you are away! In the morning, we would get up and let the dogs outside to go potty and get some fresh morning air. They will have plenty of opportunity for cuddles or playtime throughout the day, and will be able to go in and out as they please. I have three children who love animals. All dogs must be child friendly, and I will make sure that my children are respectful of the dog's boundaries. We have a fenced in back yard and plenty of space for them to run and play.
“Another great experience with Chanel! She was very helpful and accommodating. She really took her time and got to know my babies which I greatly appreciated. 10/10, would recommend.”
About: I have extensive experience with animals in all aspects of life. Having worked in both veterinary medicine and in an animal shelter I have a wide knowledge of animal behavior and body language. I currently work an always changing schedule and therefore have ever changing availability. Scheduling in advance is always recommended but I am also pretty flexible if need be. I have years of experience with pet sitting both with drop in visits and staying in home for pet care. I am able to provide care for multiple pet homes as well.
“Danielle visited our cats twice a day for over a week during the busy holiday season and was absolutely phenomenal. She was so caring, loving, and attentive during her visits.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Chan and the exceptional care he provides for my fur baby. He truly goes above and beyond to make sure my pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What I appreciate most is the peace of mind Chan gives me when I have to travel. Leaving my pet behind is never easy, but Chan is one of the very few sitters I completely trust. His reliability, compassion, and attention to detail allow me to travel feeling comfortable and stress-free, knowing my pet is in wonderful hands. Chan also keeps me updated with the sweetest pictures and videos, which means so much while I’m away. Those little updates reassure me that my fur baby is not only being cared for, but is genuinely happy and loved. Chan is truly an exceptional pet sitter, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have someone I can trust so completely. He deserves recognition for the dedication, care, and peace of mind he provides to both pets and their owners.”
“He was incredibly responsive, communicative, and accommodating when I needed a last-minute drop-in for my dogs. He adjusted his schedule without hesitation, kept me updated, and gave me peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of. I would absolutely book with him again”
About: Pets, specifically dogs, have been a part of my family since I was born. Love all animals and care for them deeply. Currently, I have 2 dogs and a cat. All my children! Even have tattoos of them to honor each one! In late 2022, I helped my 1st dog, Pearl, cross the Rainbow Bridge after 16 and a half years together. Want to honor her by helping others❤️🐕🐈 Currently looking to make this my primary means of income. I want to make animals my priority! Willing to play, walk, feed, yes...even BATHE your dog (not cat...ha ha) if needed! Potty breaks can be 5 minutes or an hour! Playtime, walks, cuddles, lunch/dinner, naps can all be included! Willing to make your pet MY priority!
About: I have cared for dogs and cats over the last 25 years. I have my own dog and cat but have also cared for friends dogs and cats. I currently cannot have them in my home but it is easy for me to let them out, walk them, feed them, brush them and give them love. I have given medication to both dogs and cats and have cared for seniors as well. I am available evenings and weekends. I work Monday through Friday, with a volunteer job Sunday mornings. I am able to care after 4:30pm during the week and pretty much all day on Saturday. If I am letting your pet outside at your house I will be with them and watch them the whole time. I am unable to have them in my home at this time. I will spend time playing fetch or whatever I can to make your dog/cat happy.
“She is the one if you have a cat/cats! So this was my first Rover experience and I didn’t have anything to compare it to other than having a friend check on our cat while we were gone. I haven’t gone away longer than a couple days since having Hunter because I worry about him being stressed and confused. If you love a cat/cats, you know how it is. We want to take them with, but it is even more stressful and sometimes dangerous for some of them. As far as Victoria goes, she has set the bar really high and I only want her to pet sit for us for as long as she is on here. Our meet and greet went well and her energy was very pet friendly and warm. My cat can be a weirdo about changes and new people, but he did approach and smell her during that initial meeting. While we were away she took great care of him and sent photos which helped us to relax and enjoy our time. We really lucked out and I hope good people continue to sign up to do this service especially for us cat owners. Rover itself was easy to use and I think the fee (separate from the daily rate) is fair as of 10/2024 because the ease of finding someone, reading reviews, entering payment info, messaging, and photos. I would absolutely use this provider and Rover again.”
About: I have 9 years of experience taking care of dogs, I enjoy that they are happy, I try to give them love, care and protection Currently I can offer this service from 8 am-2pm and at night (depending on what can be agreed) on weekdays, on weekends my schedule is usually longer so I will be able to adapt to the schedule you need. I hope that any change can be notified in time so that our communication is always ideal I know that walks are a special moment for dogs therefore they will always be the leaders, I do not rush them, I allow their sense of smell to be free (with caution), play with them either inside or outside the house and continue supporting if the dog is in training. If your pet is a little crazy, don't worry, I'll be patient so that your pet is happy and safe
“Did an amazing job at keeping my kitties happy, safe, and living in a clean environment! Always kept me updated with pictures and updates. Definitely would recommend her to care for any of your pets.”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Gum Branch is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 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 103 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gum Branch. 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.

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.
