“Chloe was absolutely amazing! Very knowledgeable about animals and I had no concerns about leaving my babies in her care. She is detailed oriented and sent me great pictures and notes letting me know how everyone was doing. Will definitely be using her for all of our trips away!”

“Gwen was an amazing home- and petsitter for our cat, who took to her immediately. Great communication, timely, responsible, and daily photos and updates. We were out of the country for a week and didn't worry once. We are frequent travellers and will absolutely use Gwen's services again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for pet care in the area.”

“Stephen was fantastic. He came to my rescue for my cat as the other sitter I had was not working out and I was already overseas. He came and spent more time than request with Reno.”


“Katie was reliable, caring, and great with my cats! She kept me updated with photos and I came home to happy, well cared for animals. I highly recommend her and would book with her again.”


“They took excellent care of my kitten and took heed to the special instructions I had left! I’m grateful I could find this quality of care on such short notice!”

“Ali is simply a lovely human. My dogs took to him immediately. Gus was especially excited to meet his new friend and Ali responded with nothing but patience and understanding. Ali has an energy that is simultaneously enthusiastic and calming. We’re excited to have him back :)”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11 years old. I’ve worked with a variety of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and bearded dragons. I'm currently in grad school so I work during the day. Weekends work best but I can also do weekdays; just ask! I'm happy to discuss scheduling with you. I do not care for pets in my home, but for my clients' homes, I make sure that the house is in perfect order when my client returns.
About: I have cared for pets my entire life, as I have grown up surrounded by them. I have extensive knowledge about their care and also possess basic veterinary knowledge. In addition to giving them baths, I know how to trim their nails and, on some occasions, I can also groom their hair. I can adjust to the care schedule that best fits your needs. I believe it’s especially beneficial for your pet to go for a walk in the morning and in the evening, since those are times when they often have the most energy. I also find it very important to dedicate around 30 minutes exclusively to training, to help develop their learning skills and overall growth. Depending on the owner’s preferences, different activities and moments with the pet can be planned. For example, if it’s a pet that can only stay indoors, I would likely focus on indoor activities and spend plenty of quality time with them. On the other hand, if outdoor activities like walks or trips to the park are possible, I can easily adapt, as I love walking and believe it’s important to let pets safely explore their surroundings. That’s why I consider it very valuable to give pets the opportunity to go outside and enjoy the world.
About: I grew up with dogs since I was 12, from a chihuahua mix to a labrador mix. I've had my current dog, a shi-tzu poodle mix, for 8 years now! I also have 2 cats as well. I have fostered kittens and have found furever homes with trusted friends and neighbors. I've cared for my neighbors' and friends' dogs when they vacation. They have entrusted me with their dogs and cats to walk, bathe, and feed them. I love animals and deeply care and respect every little critter that comes my way. Aftering graduating App State this past May, I stay in Boone and sometimes travel back home. I currently have time more time on my hands than usual. I welcome any pet and will treat them like my own. I live in an apartment and love going to the Greenway trail so I'll be sure to exercise your pet and am willing to care for them in the comfort of their own home.

About: I have been watching people’s furry family members for 10 years, giving them the love and care they need while their humans are away. I have experience with special needs pets, elderly pets, and other pets (chinchillas, bearded dragons, chickens, fish). I am comfortable administering medicines and other treatments, as well as cleaning up after/bathing animals when needed. Please keep in mind when booking that I require a weeks notice for jobs. I have another part time job that I have to give notice to. I am currently working full-time at a cafe/brunch restaurant. My typical shifts are 9-4 Wednesday-Thursday. If needed I have no issue with visiting your pets on my lunch break, given that they are a feasible distance from my job. I am available to watch your pets/home for any length of time. I am aware of how stressful it can be for your pet to not only be without their family, but to have a stranger come into their home. I make a point to gain your pets trust using experience and respect. I adapt to the needs of your pet, making sure their are cared for to the fullest, while also staying within their boundaries.

“Ana was great! She went above and beyond taking care of our furmans and even administered IV fluids to one of our cats! She sent us pics every day and gave us a little report of how everyone was doing! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Audrey did a wonderful job checking in on our dog and 2 cats while we were away. We got report cards with pictures for every visit and she kept us updated on any concerns that arose. We would be happy to book her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 10 years, and I genuinely love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and routine. I have experience caring for kittens, senior cats, and cats who need a little extra attention or medical care. I’m comfortable giving oral medications, eye and ear drops, topical ointments, and inhalers, and I’m also Animal CPR trained. Most importantly, I want every cat in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. 💜 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give your cat plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m available for cat sitting throughout the week, including drop-ins and extended visits. I’m happy to work around your cat’s normal routine and provide consistent care, attention, and companionship while you’re away. I also send daily updates with photos so you can see how your cat is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away. Your cat’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m respectful of your home and your cat’s routine, and I follow care instructions closely. I take the time to make each cat feel comfortable, whether they’re social and playful, shy and independent, or need extra patience and attention. 💜
About: I have grown up around and caring for various species of animals including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I have experience with animals of all ages through personal pet care, caring for friends and family's pets. I currently own a dog, bearded dragon, and a holland lop bunny.

It will have plenty of room for your baby to run around and have a great time. I have one dog that I own. He’s wonderful around other dogs and he loves to make new friends! There are also 3 other large dogs in the house from my roommates. They are good around other dogs and love making new friends, too! They are fixed. There are 3 cats, one outside and two inside. One bearded dragon and bunny which are in my room and shouldn’t be an issue.

About: I have grown up around animals and throughout that time have gained skills that help with sitting and with that it allows me to be a better sitter. I have been around all ages of cats and dogs my whole life and have been sitting regularly since I was thirteen. I’m currently in school and not very busy with classes, so I’ll be readily available to fulfill any petting sitting needs that are needed. I will usually check in and/or walk in the morning or in the evening. My dog gets walked twice a day at minimum because he tends to want to get that much energy out. This usually happens at night and I would be able to walk any dogs at the same level which I do mine.
About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life and have been trusted with family and friends pets . I have raised two puppies into well-behaved dogs. Daily walks, training, bathing, ball-throwing, all things. I had a momma cat birth four kittens in my garage, my mother and I took them in and managed to care for them for 12 weeks until we found safe and trusted homes for them. I currently have a part time job. My schedule varies week to week but am very flexible and open to any days/times you need me. I will care for your animals with pure love and patience while respecting your home. My care will include walks, feeding, changing water so it’s fresh, playing, and of course, pets and cuddles.
About: Hi, all! I have been surrounded by animals my whole life. I’ve had 3 dogs, and 4 cats of my own! I enjoy all animals and I enjoy taking care of them even more. I have had experience with all types of dogs/cats, so if needed i can handle both. I am currently unemployed, so most of my time is free! Weekends are usually busy for me as I am in a long distance relationship, but some weekends I can manage! I can do most anything I am asked to provide special care for your fur babies in your home! I will take as much time as needed to make them feel safe and loved!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,497 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Haywood. 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.

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.
