“Cristal went above and beyond repeatedly for my boys. I have two senior large breed dogs, and they’re a lot. One has ivdd and has eaten 90% of his tail and repeatedly tries to get to it to chew more off, as well as some GI issues right now and Cristal expressed so much concern and care for his wellbeing while I attended my brothers wedding. She did such a good job that my girlfriend was jealous that she was taking care of the dogs and not her haha, silly I know. But I could not recommend anyone more than I would Cristal. An exceptional human being and incredibly caring pet sitter.”
“Sage is a great pet sitter! Our two cats took to her quickly during the meeting, and she provided great updates each visit. Sage was also very communicative while cat sitting during a bad thunderstorm, helping make sure the babies were okay if power went out. Our home and cat areas were clean and well-kept when we returned. Thank you, Sage!!”
“Our cats LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Logan! He spends a lot of time interacting and playing with them and follows all our instructions. He provides great communication, as well as many awesome pics. Our cats have been very content and happy upon our return…which makes us very happy!”
“Sara took great care of my cat Charlie and was a great communicator! We had a short meet up prior to her drop ins and she was lovely and I felt confident with my cat in her care. Thank you Sara”
“Destiny was great with my two cats! She spent time having long play sessions with my active cat and respected the boundaries of the shy one. Took great pics and kept me very informed! Very responsive!”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing while caring for our dog, Prince! We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands during our time away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. What really stood out was her consistent communication—she sent us regular updates, along with pictures and messages that gave us peace of mind and let us see how happy and well cared for Prince was. It made being away so much easier. Prince seemed comfortable, relaxed, and well-loved when we returned, which speaks volumes about the care Abigail provided. We are so grateful for her dedication and thoughtfulness. We would highly recommend Abigail to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter—we will definitely be booking her again!”
“I had booked a last minute visit and Christa was very accommodating and flexible throughout the whole process. She regularly updated me with pictures and activities. I felt like my puppy was in really good hands. Her love for animals definitely shows. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Sheyla was terrific. Timely, responsible, and great communicator. Our little kitten was well cared for and happy when we returned from holiday travel. Highly recommend Sheyla!”
“Claire was great! We had a last minute need for a sitter for our kitty, and she couldn’t have been more gracious and helpful. She took great care of our kitty and even went the extra mile by taking out our trash on trash day. We had peace of mind while we were away because our kitty was in excellent hands!”
“Thank you Teresa for taking such great care of my bunnies. I absolutely loved all the pictures and updates she sent me. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of. I loved how detailed the updates were and all the questions she asked to take the best care possible for them. Excellent service and I would recommend Teresa to everyone needing care for their pets.”
“Grayson was perfect during my time away. She took care of my big baby and made sure to send plenty of pics. My trip was last minute and she still made time for a meet and greet. Overall Grayson was very reliable and it seemed like Lilah enjoyed her very much!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was little. Anytime my family or friends need help with their dogs, they come to me. I play sports and go to school. But when I'm not doing that I have plenty of time to take care of your little/big angel. I have a dog of my own that that yours can play with. Space inside and in the backyard where they can run and play.

Jada took care of my 4 pets like they were her own. She went above and beyond to make sure they had company, and even stayed over a couple of nights a week so they could be loved up (of course as we agreed on). I 100% recommend her services! I will definitely be booking her again, I know I can trust not only my pets, but my home to her. Thanks Jada!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Harrisburg 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.

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.
