“It’s hard to find reliable pet sitters who show up on time and follow directions so we’re so glad we found Ashlee!! She was great and we’ll definitely book her again.”
“Kaitlin was so wonderful and attentive to our 6 cats while we were out of town! She communicated with us consistently about how they were doing and sent pictures as often as she could (whenever they came out of hiding)! It made us feel much more at ease with being out of town for such an extended period of time knowing that our cats were well cared for!”
About: Personal pet owner for 15 years and go-to pet sitter for the neighborhood. I’ve had experience looking after all kinds of pets: young pups, elderly dogs, chill cats, cats from hell, and everything in between. I’m first to show a little love, but not afraid to reinforce a little training and discipline. I’m currently on a job hunt right now, so not sure what my week may look like. I’m basically available, but if something comes up I’ll let you know ASAP. I will do the basics. Check food, water, medications, bath, litter, poop, ect. But I will try to spend some time with your pet, whether that be playing or chilling for a little while. More or less, “reading the room.”

About: Current business owner that caters to the well being of pets. Knowledgeable in your pets health and emotions. No small kids in the house with plenty of room to play. Being self employed and working mainly from home allows me to have the flexibility to do pet care. This also allows me to give your dog or cat the attention they need. We have a fenced in yard with acreage, and working on an outdoor play area. We also have space inside with lots of natural lighting. Comfortable doing drop in’s for your cats and elderly pets.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I was the kid who always brought home stray pets kittens, turtles, you name it and begged to keep them. That early love for animals only grew stronger over time. I spent most of my Easter and summer breaks on my aunt’s farm in Virginia and my friend’s farm in North Miami, helping care for everything from dogs and cats to goats and chickens. What sets me apart as a sitter is that I truly understand how different each pet is. Whether it’s the patience and consistency needed to train a puppy, or the gentleness and extra care senior pets deserve, I bring calm, confidence, and compassion to every situation. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I run my own business virtually, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m able to adjust my day around your pet’s needs, whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits. Having that flexibility allows me to be fully present and reliable, making sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my approach is always centered around creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality—everything from feeding schedules and walk times to favorite toys and spots for naps. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I make sure everything is clean, secure, and that your pet feels calm and cared for while you're away. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a cozy, pet-friendly space where they can relax and feel at home. I follow any instructions provided and keep communication open with regular updates, photos, and check-ins, so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Kailie was amazing with Koolaid! She was so sweet, attentive, and kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so thankful for her and would definitely recommend her! 🐾🤍”
About: I stand out because I combine professionalism with genuine love for pets. I have experience with both energetic puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require gentle care and attention to detail. My background gives me the skills to handle medication, follow routines, and keep pets safe, happy, and loved—just like family. I have a busy but consistent schedule with ROTC training in the early mornings and college classes during the day, which leaves me plenty of free time in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. In your home, I can make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick closely to their usual routines for feeding, walks, and playtime, and I give plenty of attention and affection so they feel right at home. For puppies, I focus on structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement. For senior pets, I’m extra patient and mindful of their comfort, medications, and mobility needs. Whether it’s exercise, cuddles, or just quiet companionship, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs.
“We recently relocated and we were a little worried about finding the right person to continue to drop in for Annie. We just started using Kristen and so far has been a great fit for us. She is reliable and cares about her customers, a great fit for us, so happy we found Kristen.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all different ages and backgrounds with many different needs for many years. One of my passions is helping people and loving on their pets is a bonus for me! I have worked with animals that need regular medication administered to just a little love every couple hours! I am currently a college student and I do a lot of pet sitting/housesitting while I am on break or home! During this time my schedule is very flexible! I offer full services depending on what my client needs for their fur baby. I feed, walk, play, and keep up with the daily needs of the home (per clients request). I am very flexible and am willing to help with daily chores like checking the mail as well!
About: I have had animals my entire life and currently have 5 dogs, 5 cats and a horse. My full time job is on a farm taking care of horses so I have the ability to administer fist aid and medications and am comfortable with all sizes and shapes of animals. Also have experience with goats and pigs. I currently work part time and travel some for work so my schedule is flexible and easy to work around. I have the ability to work evenings and weekends when needed. I will make sure to follow all the instructions given to me to properly care for your pet. I have extreme attention to detail and am able to recognize if there might be a problem with an animal because my job has been to have an awareness about how an animal is acting for the past 10 years. I also have extensive experience with my own pets and different issues they have had through my life.
About: I grew up in a multiple pet household, loving both dogs and cats. I raised my dauschund from a puppy, and rescued my three-legged feral cat! I have extra patience for pets with specific and special needs. I have been my friends and family's go-to person for taking care of their pets while they're on vacation for many years. I have flexible availablity seven days a week, so I have plenty of time to hang out and play with your fur babies! Most days I am available morning-night. I have years of experience making pet care house calls for friends and family. I will treat your space and pets with respect. I have my own vehicle if an emergency situation arises.
About: I have experience caring for puppies and senior dogs, including handling medications, providing frequent bathroom breaks, and making sure they are loved. I understand older and younger pets need different specialized care. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and I make it a priority in my daily routine. I’m happy to work around my schedule to care for your pets needs. I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I always follow feeding schedules and give them plenty of attention.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Harker Heights
Natalia makes it possible for us to take trips. My cat has some medical issues that require medication and keeping track of his urine output. Natalia provided detailed notes and sent plenty of pics to keep me up to date on his health and to ease my worries. She knows I’m a bit of a worrier. I could see in the pictures that my cat enjoyed his time with her each day, and they have really bonded. She plays with him and sits with him, giving him lots of pets. And he is not a cat who will let just anyone pet him. If you want someone to care for your pet with loving attention and who is 100% reliable, I can highly recommend Natalia.
Ashlee is super kind and friendly and very reliable. I booked for two days for my three cats and they were perfectly happy and even though they are shy cats they all came out to greet her. Ashlee is definitely an animal person and cat friendly for sure 😊 I can’t say enough nice things and positive things.. she sent me photos after each visit😊 Just very reassuring and I would book again any time and recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!
Stacey was great. She was punctual and always spent her time being meticulous. She changed litter, food and water and took time to snap pictures and was thoughtful enough to turn on/ off lights and TV to entertain the cats. I was very greatful for the care and attention she showed our purrfect pets.
Ashleigh is wonderful. I considered not leaving a review because if everyone knew what a tremendous sitter Ashleigh is, she wouldn’t have time to sit for me. But that wouldn’t be fair. If you hire Ashleigh as a sitter, you’ll never want anyone else to care for your pet(s).
Super fast responses and made sure to check on each cat regardless of if they came out or not. Was willing to change plans on very short notice which was a life saver. Kept me updated with pictures every visit and will definitely ask to pet sit again if I ever need!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Harker Heights is $14 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $6 and $21 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.

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.
