“Leslie is hugely reliable and wonderfully communicative. We now done both short and (very) long stretches with her and cannot speak highly enough of working with her. If she’s within your catchment area, we highly recommend working with her!”

“Sabrina had a lovely stay with Judith. We had to last minute find her a place to go for the day as our apartment complex was spraying for pests and she couldn’t stay there. Judith quickly responded to our request to stay and was very communicative. She had lots of room for her to explore and places to hide. We would definitely look to book with Judith again in the future!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly love. For the past 13 years, I’ve proudly owned and operated my own pet care business, providing dependable, personalized care for the pets and families who trust me. I offer private dog boarding and in-home pet visits, with a focus on individualized attention and a comfortable, loving environment. I intentionally keep my home boarding small and personal, caring for no more than three dogs at a time, including my own dog, Muddy. This allows me to give each dog the attention, affection, and care they deserve. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog is staying with me or I’m visiting your pets in their own home, I treat every animal as if they were my own. As an experienced pet care professional, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your four-legged family members. I’m reliable, attentive, and passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. After 13 years in this business, I know pet care is about so much more than feeding and walking. It’s about building trust, understanding each animal’s individual needs, and giving pet parents peace of mind. Your pets aren’t just pets to me. They’re family!! Pet care has been my full-time career for 13 years! My schedule revolves around caring for animals, allowing me flexibility to accommodate boarding and in-home visits. I have a fully fenced backyard with direct access from my home. I provide personalized care, follow your instructions, respect your home, and treat every pet as my own. I limit boarding to three dogs total, including Muddy.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for friends and family all my life. I’m always a go to call for any of my friend’s pet needs due to my reliability and consistency. I’m a lover of all pets, cats and dogs alike. All animals deserve all the same love and care! I work in the construction trades Monday through Friday with time after my work days from 3pm to 10pm. My weekend availability is a lot more flexible so I would be able to do multiple visits during my the weekend. I have immense cat care throughout my years, in visits for feedings or check ins to cleaning litter boxes. For dogs, I would be able to go for walks, go for visits and check ins, and feedings as well. I am very good with all animals alike.
“Jennifer was a stellar sitter. She asked great questions beforehand that demonstrate her caution and consideration. She sent awesome update photos and even found a new way to set up our boy’s favorite toy that he’s obsessed with. Our house was neat and orderly when we returned. We’ll definitely be seeking her help again in the future.”

“Abby did a wonderful job. We have a high needs cat and she did a great job taking care of him. Our other cat is very shy and Abby made sure to find her every day and make sure she was eating her food. I highly recommend Abby!”
About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have two dogs of my own and am very comfortable with all types of personalities—from energetic pups to shy or reactive dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I have hands-on experience with reactive dogs and am very mindful of their body language, boundaries, and routines to help them feel safe and secure. I also cared for my senior dog Toni for 17 years, so I’m experienced with medication administration and providing attentive, gentle care for older pets. I truly enjoy building trust with animals and creating a calm, positive environment for them. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and will always follow your pet’s routine closely so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’d love to help with walks, drop-ins, or sitting and treat your pets like part of my own family! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a very flexible and consistent schedule throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting during both weekdays and weekends, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. Because I’m home-based, I’m able to be very attentive and stick closely to your pet’s routine, making sure they get timely walks, meals, and attention. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their own environment and routine. I’m very respectful of both your pet and your space, and I always aim to keep things calm, clean, and consistent while you’re away. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and individual needs, whether your pet is energetic, shy, or reactive. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific routines, so your pet feels safe and secure. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Tawana took amazing care of my senior cat with health issues and navigated the various medications like an absolute pro. I am looking forward to working with her again.”

About: Animals are my passion I went to high school for veterinary science, and have worked in all aspect of the animal world, grooming, daycare, walking, sitting, and even the medical aspect. My goal is to make sure that you're pet is more than satisfied and happy as well as the YOU the owner! I currently am working on building my own pet care business, so I have a lot of time for this as it's what I am trying to build and will be my only focus. I do also own two dogs and four cats of my own so animal care is not something new for me, something that just comes easy and flows into my day naturally. I have two dogs of my own that are also extremely dog friendly as well as 4 cats that are very used to the dogs, two even think they are dogs! I have a two story duplex with a mostly fenced in yard, but I do also have super long leads screwed into the ground incase of anything. animal care is my passion and what I love to do.
“Hannah is amazing! I had to take a business trip and was so stressed about leaving my older cat who needs meds 2x a day home. Friends would have stopped in but with Hannah I was sure to get excellent care. She's wonderful and now I know I can take occasional trips and not worry.”

“Having someone experienced with giving cats inhalers was the most important thing, and Liz handled it perfectly. This was by far the easiest time leaving the cats alone for me: I trusted Liz completely. Super caring and devoted to making sure our cats had the best time.”

“Natalie did a wonderful job sitting our senior cat, Luna. We appreciated all the photos and care notes Natalie sent us after each visit. We just re-booked Natalie for a second visit, and hope to continue to in the future!”

“Emily was an amazing cat sitter! She came to our home twice a day for our 5 day trip. Our cats were very well taken care of! One of our cats, Katie, required special medication and Emily administered her medication perfectly. Our cats were very healthy and in great spirits when we returned. We felt very comfortable and was able to enjoy our trip after leaving our fur babies with Emily. She was very communicative via Rover app and text and sent us photos and updates every day. We will be rebooking with Emily again soon!!!!”

Caden is our cats’ new favorite person! We have two cats Ollie and Oatey and they both have a little bit of different personalities; Caden catered to both. Oatey can be a little shy with new people and by the third or fourth day he was cuddling up on her lap. Ollie is more outgoing but doesn’t always engage with play (because his brother steals the show) and Caden brought her IPad for him to play with some mice games, which he appeared to love. Ollie isn’t a lap cat and by the end he was sitting in Caden's lap too. Caden was super thoughtful and attentive. She noticed when our litter robot was full and made sure to change it so our guys had fresh litter. She made sure the cats had fresh water during her visits. She gave us excellent updates and kept our cats happy while we were away. I could not have enjoyed my trip as much as I did without Caden being our sitter.

Sarah was great! It was the first time I’ve left my kitty Maples for more than one night and I felt super comfortable knowing Sarah was coming every day. She came exactly as we agreed on, I got a notification every time she came, and pictures too! I will definitely use Sara in the future!

Tyra is fantastic! She was looking after our kitties for a vacation week. She was very kind and attentive to them. Both cats loved her! She is also a great communicator. Every visit she was sending us photos and we could see that cats are well taken care of. We'll definitely will work with her again!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Hathorne is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $22 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.

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.
