“Mickela was amazing with Ash Pãozinho! He can be shy with new people, but she was very patient with him and let him get comfortable at his own pace. By the end of the booking, he was clearly relaxed around her and happy to spend time with her. She stayed with him, played with him, took care of his food, water, and litter, and kept me updated with photos and messages every day. She was also very communicative and respectful of my home and instructions. I felt much more comfortable being away knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely book with Mickela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter.”
“Elizabeth took great care of my cats. She fed and cleaned litter boxes daily. According to the cats, she gave out treats and pets as they demanded. I definitely recommend her for cat sitting!”
“Definitely an excellent sister for my kitties. Vivi took great care of our two kitties they were happy to have her around. She was caring, professional, and give as the peace we needed while we were gone. Thank you again Viví.”
About: Throughout my life, I have been the go-to pet sitter for my neighbors, friends, and family. Whether it’s providing a high energy walk, managing feeding schedules, or simply offering a calm and comforting presence, I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine so they feel secure while you are away. My experience ranges from caring for playful puppies to providing the gentle attention required by senior dogs. I work from home full-time, ensuring your pet has constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of playtime. My own friendly dogs provide built-in company. I prioritize routines and close supervision. Without a fenced yard, all outdoor time is leashed. You will receive daily updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Fantastic service, will book again! Really appreciate the excellent care and communication, and the kindness and flexibility when I needed to extend my booking because my travel schedule changed. Felt assured that my cats were safely integrated into a new temporary family and well taken care of while I was away.”
“Cynthia was an amazing support for me! I had never left my two 1 year old cats alone before, and she made me feel so comfortable. Not only did she walk me through everything I needed to sort out before I left, she checked in throughout the week and sent lots of pictures of the boys doing their favorite activities. Will definitely use her again!”
About: Hello! My name is Kayla I’ve been taking care of animals for over 6 years! I started pet sitting with my grandma at age 12 and started doing it on my own shortly after. I’ve worked at a shelter for over a year and now currently work as a vet assistant. I’m comfortable with all animals of any age or size! My number one priority is for you to feel at peace knowing your fur baby is in good hands:) At the moment my schedule is completely open. I can come anytime needed or do overnights. I will always make sure my calendar stays up to date! My main goal is to always prioritize the safety of the animal! I will usually ask for a time schedule/ and how you wish your dog to be cared for, whether it be walks only, only in the fence, etc.
About: I have experience caring for my family pets in my hometown in California as well as experience caring for pets of other family members, friends, and acquaintances. I am a lover of animals and treat pets with kindness and patience. I am also respectful of owners’ homes and belongings and always do my best to leave the Home looking the same or better than it did when I arrived. My new job does not begin until the new year, so I have plenty of flexibility for the months of November and December. While my preference is to work on weekdays, I can be flexible with weekends as well. I will care for your pet according to your preferences as the owner. I will respect the limits you set for your pet (e.g., providing the appropriate amount of treats, certain areas being off-limits) and protect them from hazards. I like to make sure animals feel safe, secure, and cared for.
“Ziiomi did an excellent job taking care of my pug. I was really in need of a last minute drop in visit and they not only replied promptly but also had time for a meet and greet to make sure we communicated everything my Eva would need. She was on time each and sent me multiple pictures of my pets as well as the additional care they provided which wasn't even required. 10/10 and I will be booking with her again!”
“Jessica took excellent care of my cat, who takes daily medication and has special separation anxiety needs. I was very happy to see my cat was at ease while I was away. Jessica took great care tending to my cat's food and litter boxes, and was consistently on time for daily visits.”
“Brenna took really good care of my two kitties. She sent great photos of them so I could see they were happy. She even dealt with all the upset tummies from the new food they were trying. I would highly recommend her for your next sitter!”
About: I lived with and took care of my sisters 2 dogs (1 husky puppy and 1 adult husky/german mix). I then moved to Austin and wanted to continue having dogs in my life, so started up a Rover account! I continued sitting through Rover during my two years as a Masters Student at Georgetown, and am glad to be able to continue sitting after graduating! I just graduated from my Masters program, so am very available as I continue to job hunt! My weekends are very busy due to weddings out-of-state, but during the weekdays I am available! Before confirming on a booking I go through an extensive list of questions regarding anything from leash reactiveness and appropriate ways to approach your dog, to walk routes that are familiar and comfortable for your dog. I always want to ensure my sitting periods are as stress-free and “normal” as I can make them.
About: Since growing up at a young age, I’ve always had a pet by my side and now that I love daily unconditionally. If there is one thing I can teach them is to get along with others animals as well as people. My patience and understanding will keep them thriving and healthy. I only want to give them more than they need. I am available 5 days of the week to care for your pet, including the weekend if needed! After all, someone has to be there for them. No pet under my supervision has ever been in harms way. I have a big cage with food and water. Pet toys, cleaning supplies, and pet proof items to keep them safe.
“Thank you, thank you! Bex was amazing to my cats Simba and Cookie. They took excellent care of my cats and provided a report card (and pictures) after every visit. They were on time and kept the pet areas in clean order. Thank you so much, Bex. When I travel again, I will definitely send you a request.”
“Kristal was great with my two kitties. She did drop in visits while I was on a multi-day vacation. I got updates and pictures everyday and she even cleaned up kitty cat puke (from one of my babies who has a sensitive tummy). Would absolutely book again!”
About: I have had 2 dogs and grew up taking care of both my own pets and friends pets. I am attentive to details and love helping my animal friends. I do not accept boarding rq right now. I can house sit: take care of an animal and your house while you are away: I.e if your dog/cat really needs attention and/or someone to stay with them and get some chores around the house finished. I work part time so I have plenty of time to stop by and help as well as to walk at times that fit into others schedules I am very attentive to details and love to follow systems. if you let me know requirements for pets whether that be medicine, allergies, or other situations I am very good at remembering and adhering to guidelines.

Shelby always takes such great care of Tulip when we’re away. We haven’t found a sitter we can rely on like Shelby in such a long time! We always know that when we book with her Tulip is in great hands. I’d highly recommend to anyone looking for someone responsive and reliable. The pics and videos are always a nice touch!
We had a great experience with Neisha. She took wonderful care of our cat with daily drop-ins over the holidays and was always communicative, efficient, and reliable. We really appreciated the consistent updates and knowing everything was handled so smoothly while we were away. Would absolutely book again and highly recommend!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Hillcrest Heights is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $41 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.

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.

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.
