“Mariah was an unbelievable kitty sitter. I would say, the best I’ve seen. She was always prompt, and provided great report cards with pictures. She is truly a professional, and went beyond like bringing in packages. I will always try to book her before anyone else going forward. We really appreciated her taking care of Lily. Thank you so much Mariah.”

“Sughra was wonderful with our two cats. One cat requires medication and is a little shy, but he warmed up to her right away. Sughra spent time playing with them, and she took really great care of them. I would highly recommend Sughra as a Petsitter!”

About: Since a young age, I had always been the go to person for my friends, family, and often times neighbors as well for pet-sitting. From care-taking for a friends tortoise for over 8 years, to having a rabbit, birds, dogs, and more myself, leads me to have such a deep rooted passion and interest for care-taking, spending time, and bonding with all ranges of sizes and ages of pets! As of right now, I am dedicated to being available as often and frequent as possible for pet-sitting, walking, and/or care taking. My current schedule outside of these things are very flexible for now, so if ever needed, please send a direct message and we can work things out! I have a lot of previous experience in caring for all kinds of animals with a ranging variety of needs, whether a senior animal who needs more attention, carefulness, and patience; or a small puppy who is exploding with energy and needs to direct it elsewhere! Any notes, tips, and personal preferences are always appreciated as well when it comes to your pet and how they need to be cared for. (:

About: My experience started when i was about 14. I started watching family dogs and cats for money and it slowly became a passion. I work now at a dog resort which has daycare, boarding, bathing, and is now adding training. There I do bathing services, doggy daycare, feeding, administering medication. And that includes Cats as well. My aunt fosters cats/kittens and I have raised 2 dogs starting at month 3 as my grandpa adopted puppies. I helped and have experience with both little puppies and kittens. I love animals so much. I am super happy with this passion and hope to experience and learn more in the future. And am excited to work with you! I work currently at a Resort facility who works with both cats and dogs. And our goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your pets. I work day to day in that facility walking, feeding, medicating, and so much more. I have learned so much about animal behavior and have a pet of my own at home who I take care of day to day. So i work with pets daily. It will depend on what service you are looking for. I can do a basic bath for your pet in your home. (No nail trimming, and you would provide the bath and products you would like used.) For Boarding, either coming to me or me coming to you I can provide playtimes, long/short walks, administration of medication, litter-box cleaning, and more. For walks I can do walks in the neighborhood or take your dog to a dog park! And so much more! I am open to suggestions and ideas of what I can add/offer!

With all my past experience, I am excited to care for your pets of all ages, shapes, and sizes.

I am (typically) home and finished with work on weekdays after 3:00pm and I am available most weekends at any time to watch your pets. I currently have an indoor cat and help take care of all her needs ranging from trimming her nails, playing with her, and keeping her litter box clean. In the past, I have owned many dogs and always make sure to put their needs first. Depending on what my dog needs, I can spend the day playing with them, walking them, or just cuddling on the couch.

“This was our first time booking with Selina. We had a meet and greet prior to the sitting time. And, we knew at that time that she was the sitter for us. During our time away, Selina kept us informed and sent pictures. She even had a sighting or two of one of our kitties who normally hides from the world when we are away. Selina cleaned up after the cats eating sessions and kept our flowers alive. All of our cats were very happy in Selina's care and we will be booking again. Thank you Selina!”

About: I have been pet-sitting since I was 10 years old. I have always loved animals with my whole heart. My family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to take care of, feed, walk, and bathe their pets while they are away. I am especially praised for the amount of time I spend hanging out with the pets. I like I hang out with them as much as I can and get in all the cuddles so they know they are safe with me and feel all of my love while their owners are away! This works with my schedules perfectly! I typically work 8 hour days, so mid day check ins, and evening care work perfectly for me since I am available to stay at the pets house with them! I spend a lot of time with the animals when I am there. I always allow cuddles and honestly it is my favorite part of the job. Coming back to a pet that is excited to see you is the best feeling in the world. I make sure the dogs get plenty of time outside, and long walks if the weather permits. I love playing with the animals. Cats or dogs! I love seeing the pets be comfortable with me and building that bond between the animals and myself!

About: We’ve both grown up around dogs and have always loved being around animals. Robin has dogs of his own, and Macy has both dogs and cats and has cared for pets for most of her life. Macy also has professional experience working as a kennel attendant, where she cared for dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. We’re comfortable with different routines and needs, and we always make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with us. 🐾 Hi! We’re Macy & Robin, a couple who both love animals! Macy is the primary sitter, and Robin joins her for some bookings to provide an extra set of hands and even more love and attention for your pets. We love spending time with animals and getting to know all their different personalities. Macy is currently in school working toward her Master Esthetician license, so she has a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week. We’re both reliable, respectful, and will make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in our care. We’re also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates! 🐾 I have a fenced in backyard along with a crate, although I would prefer not housing at my house because of other pets living there.

“Allie took great care of three kitties over the weekend for us. She was super communicative, and made sure we were aligned prior to booking on expectations for timing around work schedules and cat medication needs. I felt like the girls were in good hands, which made focusing on being present with family while away possible. 🥰 Thanks so much!”

Emily was wonderful with our pets! Our dog can take some time to warm up to new people, and Emily was so patient and persistent with her — by the end, you could tell she absolutely loved her. She kept us updated throughout the whole stay with photos and messages, which gave us total peace of mind. It was clear from the pictures that both our pets were happy, comfortable, and having a great time playing with her. We'll definitely be booking Emily again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Haymarket

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Haymarket is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 1,772 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Haymarket. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Haymarket. On Rover:

  • 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% can help with daily exercise

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.
