Christa took great care of my cat while I was gone! She was very attentive, followed instructions, and made sure my cat was happy and comfortable while I was gone. I got very detailed updates and lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away!

Amanda took amazing care of my senior cat, making sure her medication was given on time and handled with care. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was not only attentive to her needs but also spent quality time with her, giving her plenty of cuddles and comfort. She also kept me updated with lots of pictures, which I really appreciated—it made being away so much easier.

Lauren was amazing! We've lucked out and have been able to have family or friends come over to let our pups out when we have to be away for long periods of time, until now. We reached out to Lauren via Rover to come over and check on our pups. One was extremely worried about her presence and the other warmed up after a while. She is communicative and pleasent to talk with via the app. Her Rover Report Cards were detailed (with adorable pics) and helped put our minds at ease with a stranger caring for our pups. Thanks Lauren ?

About: I have had and cared for a variety of pets throughout my life, including dogs, cats, reptiles, etc. I have a passion for animals and ensuring they live a great life to the best of my ability! My wife and I have a sweet cat named Poe who welcomes any visitors. I have experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, and everything in between and have been trusted among friends, family members, and neighbors to care for their dogs deeply and ensure all needs are met. I currently work Monday-Thursday and I am available after hours through the week or any time Friday-Sunday. I can be flexible as far as coming to you or hosting your pet! I live in a safe, private apartment close to several parks and great outdoor areas. I will cater the needs and schedules specific to each dog or cat and ensure all their needs are met. I am happy to host your animal, come for a check in/walk, or anything in between to ensure your time away is stress-free when it comes to care for your pet.

About: Hey, y'all! I had 3 dogs for about 8 years, walked and fed them daily, I have experience with almost all dog breeds from great danes to chihuahuas! I've also had bunnies, guinea pigs, flying squirrels, hamsters, and mice! I absolutely adore cats and have experience with animals of all ages ☺️ Sitting or playing with my cats has become part of my daily routine. I loved walking my dogs when I had them because I don't go outside enough. As long as I know where food, leashes, and pet supplies are, I can guarantee your pet's safety and comfort :) I look forward to meeting you!

About: Hi there! I'm a former veterinary technician who spent years working hands-on with animals. While I loved the work, the field could be a bit emotionally heavy at times—so I decided to step back and find a happier, more balanced way to stay close to the animals I adore. That’s what brought me to dog walking and drop-in visits! I truly enjoy long walks and runs with my own dogs, so if you have an active pup who needs a good workout, I’ve got you covered. I share my home with two big dogs and two cats, so I’m very comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. All of my animals have special diets and unique needs, so I’m extra careful and experienced when it comes to following feeding instructions, administering medications, or keeping routines just right. Your pets will be treated like family—because that’s exactly how I see them. I'm an aspiring actress and also work as a bartender, which gives me a flexible schedule. I typically work Wednesdays and Thursdays from 7 PM to close, and Fridays and Saturdays from 12 PM to 7 PM. While I have other commitments throughout the week, I’m great at managing my time and can usually adjust my schedule to make room when needed. I take the care of animals very seriously—both in my home and in my clients’ homes. My own pets have taught me how important it is to be attentive, patient, and detail-oriented. I have two big dogs and two cats, all of whom have special needs. One of my dogs only has three legs and has been through extensive rehabilitation and medical care, so I’m very familiar with mobility issues, post-op routines, and the importance of adapting exercise to the animal’s capabilities. All four of my pets are on different prescription diets and medications, so I’m experienced in administering meds properly, sticking to feeding routines, and keeping a close eye on health and behavior changes. Whether I’m caring for animals in my own home or visiting yours, I bring that same level of attentiveness and compassion. Every pet is unique, and I always take the time to understand and follow their specific needs and routines to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

About: Growing up and throughout my life I've had many furry friends of my own including a Tortoiseshell Cat, a Bernese Mountain dog, a Maine coon, a black lab, a bunny, a few chickens, and currently a Bombay Cat named Lady who I love so dearly. I have also worked at multiple doggy day cares and boarding facilities. Balancing the responsibilities of caretaking for multiple pups at once. Administering play time, bath time, making sure medication is accounted for and taken, as well as feeding them breakfast and dinner. I was also responsible for breaking up any altercations between the pups, certain forms of training, and learning the individual personalities of each and how to regulate their moods. I am a Craft Cocktail Bartender so I tend to work later evening shifts. The daytime is perfect but nights can still work as well if I'm off or working a shorter shift. It truly depends on your needs. I will remain flexible and communicative about my availability. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for animals with different personalities and I truly take the time to learn each pet's routine and needs. I provide regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you can feel confident while you're away. Because I have a cat at home, I mainly offer care in clients homes, where your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. This helps to keep their normal routine and reduce stress. For dogs I'd very happily provide walks, outdoor adventures to the park or the beach. Plenty of playtime and attention for their energy levels.

About: Dogs have always been huge part of my life. My home and lifestyle are designed to provide my own animals the ideal conditions to be happy and safe! You can trust me to provide the same care for your dog as well! I currently work mostly nights on the weekdays so am available during the morning and early afternoons! My life has always revolved around caring for animals and my flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent care for your beloved pets! My property is designed for ideal animal care. We have 1/2 acre of fenced in yard located in Down Town Wilmington. There is a doggy-door leading to the yard so your dog will always have the opportunity to explore, play, and use the bathroom at any point. We always have a water jug that dispenses water throughout the day so all dogs stay hydrated and happy! Engaging with our dogs is a top priority.

About: I have had a furry friend in my life in some form or another since I was very young. I have experience with both more reactive and friendly breeds and have no preference on the kinds I work with. I use patience and understanding to make them feel safe. I worked professionally as a dog walker and pet sitter for two years to multiple dogs and can bring love and affection to any animals in my care. I am responsible, punctual and a great communicator and can be an asset in caring for your dog or other animals while you are away or on a regular basis for walks. I work 4 nights a week from 3pm-11pm downtown. I am not opposed to early morning visits or late nights visits if required and am available for overnights. I do a walkthrough with owners of exact locations for all your pets, learn their quirks, the things they love and don’t like and what might come up during my stay with them. I answer all phone calls and texts from owners while they are away to ensure they feel safe and comfortable knowing their animals are properly cared for.

About: I have experience with loving and taking care off my family pets. Our current household is at 1 dog and 5 cats so I am no stranger to multitasking.

Brittnay took really good care of my cats. I booked her for four months while I was in the hospital and she was communicative and sent me pictures and even let me talk to my cats on FaceTime. She was courteous and tidy. She went above and beyond. I knew my babies were well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.

This was our 2nd time hiring Amanda to watch our 2 cats and she will continue to be our #1 choice. This was the first time we've ever left the cats for two full weeks and it was so reassuring to know she was looking in on them. Great communication, super reliable, and overall highly recommended.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Hightsville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 602 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hightsville. 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 with handling special pet needs in Hightsville. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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 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.
