About: Hi there! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and can’t imagine living without them. In college, I worked for two years at a local animal shelter, where I cared for dogs and cats of all kinds. From energetic puppies to senior pets needing medication and extra attention. That experience taught me a lot about animal behavior, health, and the patience pets deserve. I now have a flexible job that makes it easy for me to check in on your pets. My dog loves being around other dogs and cats. Whether your pup needs a play buddy, a calm presence, or some TLC, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved while you’re away I have a full time job time job that I live 5 minutes away from. I get an hour lunch where I come home and let my dog out. However, I am lucky enough to work at a flexible workplace that would allow me to drive home a couple times throughout the day if need be. I do not have a fenced in back yard, but do have a yard that my dog plays in every day. My dog Lady May, LOVES playing with other dogs. She is a very chill dog and cats alike!

Lilian was amazing! I am so thankful we met her. Very responsible - makes leaving home so much easier. Your fur babies get to stay at home and get wonderful, loving care I couldn’t have asked for anything better. I will definitely be sharing and telling other about her. I will be using her again in the future!!

Great service, wonderful people. Thank you! Rachel and Albert take great care of our senior dog. They have watched him on several occasions now and I will book with them next time I need a sitter.

Samantha has cared for our two cats periodically over the last three years. She always does a great job and I have peace of mind knowing our cats are well cared for while we are away.

About: In 2024, I became a first-time pet parent to two amazing cats, Leia and Fig. Growing up, I never had animals in the house because my father was allergic. With that said, starting out with raising the two kittens at the time was scary and challenging. Trusting someone with your own pets can be scary or challenging. It is my goal to make the experience of watching out for your pet as easy and safe as possible. In my time as a pet parent, not only have I gained confidence in caring for other animals, such as senior dogs and fish, but I have also gained a lot of knowledge about animal behavior (mainly cats and dogs). I am confident in my ability to take care of your animal in any capacity that suits your needs, from walking to feeding that requires special attention to grooming, and so much more. While I may not have 10 years of experience, I have a full heart and am committed to learning and providing the best care for your family member. I am currently a part-time student so I will have time sprinkled throughout the week to take care of your pet! Typically, Tuesdays and Thursdays are my "days off", but I am more than flexible. During weekdays, anytime after noon works best. On weekends, I am usually available from morning to evening times all around! I always want to respect the home, the homeowner, and the pet I am taking care of when in the space to work. Saftey and comfort of the pet is my #1 priority and I take precautions to make sure the pet is well fed, comfortable in the environment, and that any restrictions are met.

Kaitlyn was great! She came over and met my dogs before the booking, which I appreciated. I got lots of pics of my crazy puppers while she watched them. I can tell they had a good time. I’ve already booked with her again. ? Thanks Kaitlyn!

She did a great job coming to my house to feed my cats while I was away. She gave them their meds as well and I will book her again if she is available next time.

Alese was WONDERFUL! She is so sweet and kept us updated with thoughtful texts and photos of our kitties while we were visiting family. 10/10 would recommend her services to anyone needing kind, compassionate care for their pets while they are away. Thanks so much, Alese!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Hays on Rover is $11.1 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 9 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hays. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
