“William was fantastic with our kitties! He also was gracious when my trip was cut short and i arrived home six days earlier than planned. I really appreciated him stepping and securing a refund through Rover!! We will definitely use William again and highly recommend him to others!”
“Paige is, hands down, one of the best pet sitters we've ever had. From the very first visit, it was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, not just the checklist of tasks. She sent frequent photo updates throughout each visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away — it felt like we never really left. Beyond the basics, Paige went above and beyond: she cleaned up a mess without being asked and kept the litter box spotless the entire time. Little things like that show real attentiveness and care, not just showing up and clocking out. If you're looking for someone thoughtful, reliable, and truly attentive to your pet's needs, look no further. I cannot say enough good things about Paige — I will be absolutely be booking her again.”
“They were absolutely amazing at taking care of my cat and kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated how responsive, reliable, and punctual they were. Overall, they made the entire experience incredibly easy and stress-free. I would definitely recommend them!”
“Phoebe was amazing! This was the first time we left our cat. She usually takes a bit to warm up to people, but she was cuddling with Phoebe on the first visit (which we could see from all the pics she took). Phoebe was dependable and trustworthy with full access to our apartment. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Laura is so awesome and this is the second time we have her looking after our kitty! Our kitty Cleo also very obviously love Laura as well! She treats Cleo like her own and kept Cleo super entertained and satisfied. If needed in the future, we will definitely ask Laura again. Definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. Me and my cat have been together for 12 years and we’re still going strong! I’ve taken care of my family dogs as well such as going for lots of walks and bathing them. I am currently working as a postpartum nurse but have plenty of time on my off days to take care of your small family members :) I am very proactive and will make time to give your animals the best care! In my house, I have two cats that are both very active and enjoy running around. I’ve made sure to buy toys and furniture that stimulate their minds and keep the cats healthy. In past babysitting jobs, I’ve helped take care of dogs and cats by feeding them and going for walks.
About: I’ve have had pets since I was a kid which created my love for animals and have had my own personal pets for 20 years (5 dogs, 3 cats over the years). I have also become a foster pet parent for the last year( 2 different fosters). My love for animals encouraged me to start a career as pet groomer for 8 years which gave me a lot of hands on professional experience. I can read dog and cat body language and health needs incredibly well. I have a lot of experience with handling and caring for pets. I work great with all personalities and can tell when they are shy, excited, fearful, happy etc. I have experience administering medications to cats and dogs. I have a lot of senior dog experience. Unfortunately due to carpal tunnel I had to pick a new path which lead to Real Estate and boy do I MISS MY ANIMAL CLIENTS. Currently I work from home 80% of the time and would love to once again have some fur baby clients. Working from home will give me a lot of time to spend with your baby. I am the go to person when my friends and family need their pets to be taken care of. I go the extra mile when it comes to making them happy. I treat every animal like they are my own. I work from home 80% of the time. This gives me much availability and flexibility to look after your fur babies. I am available 7 days a week. I have a lot of hands-on experience working with pets. I make sure they receive the care they need whether it is a long walk, some playtime in the home, or even just a snuggle session I’ll be there. I love to learn all about their quirks and make sure those are taken into account for each pet. I do specialize in working with fearful or anxious dogs and cats. I am very patient and have owned several pets that need extra time and patience.
“KB is magical! Our cats (who are very shy/hide from new people) went to her on the first visit. KB is calm, responsible, took care of our house and kitties perfectly. She sent us photos and updates everyday, answered any questions we had — we could fully relax knowing our kitties were safe and well taken care of.”
“We are so happy with how Jill visited our home to feed our cats and interact with them. We received lots of pictures and updates on how they were doing and allowed us not to worry about the cats while we were away. 10/10 would recommend to everyone who needs someone to trust their cats with!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 8, and I’ve always loved being around animals! I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’m currently between jobs, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your furry friends the love, attention, and care they deserve! I can be flexible with walks, visits, and playtime to help keep your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I’ll stick to their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and potty breaks, while giving them plenty of attention and affection.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover!! I used to work at boarding and daycare place. I also have volunteered at a couple rescues including Stray Rescue and Five Acres Animal Shelter. I am currently working a full time job and looking for part time work caring for animals. I my schedule varies from week to week but I am off every Thursday. The health, happiness, and safety of animals is my number one priority. On walks I always make sure to be aware of my surroundings and paying attention to anything that might be harmful to the animals and anything they might need on the walks.
“I would 100% recommend Charnell. She took great care of Attila and the pictures she sent were very cute. She also responded very quickly whenever I had a problem, she made the whole process incredibly easy. I will probably use her again if I ever need a cat sitter”
“Madison did an amazing job with our 8 month old kitten! She followed our directions, and sent updates with photos. He seemed very content and well taken care of when we got back! We will definitely book her again in the future :)”

About: I've been hanging out with animals all my life; taking care of others' animal babies for close to a decade. No mess is too gnarly; I've popped pills and dispensed hairball meds. Love a long neighborhood walk or a long snuggle. Let me help take care of your fur babies! I do not have pets of my own; I much prefer being the fun pet aunt! I have siblings and close friends with dogs and cats, who I've spent a lot of time with and pet sit often. I'm flexible! Not having my own pets also means I have plenty of time and energy to spend with yours. I work full time M-F, but most weeks I work from home 3 days a week, and that can be your home with your fur baby. Whether I'm popping in for a walk or a potty break or spending several nights with your fur baby, they will be my priority. I love a long neighborhood walk, snuggles, and will take the time to play. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or routine, and I will be sure to keep things consistent. I'll work with you to be sure I understand your pupper or kitten's daily and weekly routine--feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and any other necessities.
“Max was an amazing pet sitter for my cat Birdie and my hamster Oso. I was worried as this was my first time leaving my cat for this long and she's a rescue and very shy. But, Birdie took to Max very quickly and Max made sure to keep me updated and let me know she was ok. I appreciated how communicative he was with me throughout my time away. Thanks to Max I was able to enjoy my first vacation in over 2 years. I will definitely be reaching out to Max the next time I go on vacation.”

This is my first time using Rover and it was a great experience! I was concerned at first because I needed to be gone for over a month and my two cats have pretty different personalities that required different types of care, but Bethany was a pro in taking care of both of them and keeping them safe and happy.
Emma did a great job with my cats! Her rover cards always had pictures and video along with thorough updates so I didn’t have worry at all while I was away. It was clear my cats loved her and felt very comfortable around her. She also had no problem feeding my exotic pets and even watered some of my thirstier plants. She was always quick to get back to me will definitely book again!
Renee did a perfect job! Did all of the tasks I asked her to do and some more. She swept up some cat litter+washed the dishes the cats were eating wet food off of. I have awkward cats but she she didn't give up on trying to get along with them. Would book again.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Hillsdale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 382 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hillsdale. 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 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
