About: I have taken care of all sorts of pets since I was a kid, but dogs and cats are what I am most used to. I have experience walking dogs, dog sitting in others homes(overnight too), and some experience caring for cats(cousins and friends). I have 3 golden retrievers at home in NY ranging from ages 1-8 and I care about them SO much, so I always want to ensure their safety. I feed them, walk them, and have endless playtime with them. My goal is to always ensure your pets safety, just as I would for mine:) I’m currently a nursing student at the University of Delaware and I’m on the club soccer team at UD! Don’t worry, I still have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have SO much time between my classes during the week, time on weekends, and after my clinicals on Thursday and Friday’s! I am here to help! I live in a town house at Delaware in which I am able to bring your pet to! There is a fenced in tennis court and park a quick 2 minute walk away that I would take the doggy day out dogs to! I have taken care of pets in the homes of family, friends, and clients. I ensure to go into the house with a calm manor and let the pet get used to me before I walk them, play, or feed them. I have three golden retrievers myself that I care for and always want to ensure their safety. I will always make sure to ensure your pets safety too!

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends’ dogs throughout the past few years. I provided whatever they needed whether that was feeding, walking, or playing. I’m currently working a part time restaurant job that never ends later than 10:30 pm. So I will have plenty of time to take care of pets overnight and during the day. I provide reliable, attentive care in my client’s homes by following routines, offering playtime and affection, administering medications as needed, and keeping owners updated regularly.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats belonging to friends, family, colleagues, and other clients! I grew up with two family Miniature Schnauzers and have also helped foster kittens, which gave me valuable experience caring for animals with different personalities and needs. Over the past three years, I’ve regularly provided cat-sitting services for families and colleagues in Washington, D.C., caring for their cats anywhere from a few hours to several weeks at a time. My experience includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, interactive playtime, providing companionship, and maintaining a clean, comfortable environment. I understand that every cat has its own personality, whether they’re playful, affectionate, shy, or independent, and I always respect their individual needs and routines. I’m attentive, dependable, and happy to provide regular photos and updates while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your furry family members feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home! I currently have a flexible schedule throughout October and am available for weekday and weekend pet care, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting! Beginning in November, I’ll be working full-time, but I’ll remain available on weekends and weekday evenings after 5:30 PM. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and love incorporating pet care into my routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! I currently offer pet care in clients’ homes, where I carefully follow all instructions, feeding schedules, walking routines, and household guidelines. I respect each family’s home and make sure pets receive attentive, loving care in their familiar environment. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can feel reassured while you’re away!

About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for pets for years, including raising my own dog since he was a puppy. I’m very involved in his daily care, including feeding, walks, routines, giving lots of attention, and helping manage medical needs when needed. Because of this, I understand how important patience, consistency, and trust are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m also very comfortable with cats and have had plenty of experience raising kittens as well. I enjoy spending time with different personalities, whether they’re playful, shy, energetic, or need extra comfort and care. I’ll always treat pets like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a very open and flexible schedule! I do work part-time mostly once or twice a week on weekends, but outside of my work schedule I’m available most days and have plenty of time to give pets attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m happy to be flexible and work around your pet’s needs and routine. Since I will be caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to help them feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible by sticking to their normal routine. I’m very attentive to instructions and will make sure your pet gets the care, attention, exercise, feeding, potty breaks, and affection they need while you’re away. I also have hands-on experience with crate training through my own dog, who is crate trained and comfortably sleeps in his crate when prompted. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and making pets feel secure in their environment. I will always treat your home and pets with respect and care as if they were my own.

Lynn is great. Our two cats, who can be very shy, skittish and picky loved Lynn from the moment they met her at the meet and greet. We rested easy on our vacation knowing Lynn was taking care of them and loved seeing all her updates and pictures. She is super professional and I would definitely recommend her to any cat families!

This is the third year I have requested Jill to be with my meows. Even though there is usually a year in between visits (sometimes less), my cats always respond well to her return. She sits with them and they sit with her; I am always happy with her services. I fully intend to use her help as long as she will have me! Jill is really the best. I 100% stand by my consistent reviews with Jill.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Heritage

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Heritage is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $27 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 October 2026, there are 2,250 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Heritage. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , 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.
