“Laura took wonderful care of our cat while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t be happier! It gave us such peace of mind knowing our furry family member was in such caring and dependable hands.”
“Amanda took amazing care of our two cats while we were out of the country for two weeks. She sent a bunch of cute photos every day and detailed updates, including how they were eating/drinking and using the litter box. She spent plenty of time playing and cuddling with them, too. Knowing they were getting so much care and attention made it much easier to enjoy our trip. We’d book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Kelly was a wonderful sitter for our cat and dog while we were away for an extended weekend. She's very kind, and both our animals were well taken care of. We especially enjoyed that she added photos at our request, despite our cat hiding often. It gave us some sweet photos and peace of mind.”
About: As a family of animal lovers with past pet‑business experience, I know how to give pets the gentle, reliable care they deserve. Our own pup, Duke (1.5), is a special‑needs dog himself, so we truly understand patience, routine, and calm support. He’s playful, friendly, and loves making new furry friends at their own pace. I have plenty of time to play with your pet. I’m available every day after 4 PM, and on weekends we’re flexible as needed. I have a fully fenced yard and a friendly dog who can keep your pup company if they enjoy that. I’m very comfortable caring for pets with special needs — whether they need a calmer environment, slower activities, medication, or extra reassurance. I always adjust to whatever helps them feel safe. They’ll get supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, and lots of attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely and can send photo updates throughout the day.
“Lauren & Layla are life savers! They accepted my very last-minute request and quickly accommodated all of my cat's needs with no questions asked. They were even available for over two weeks while I was out of town. My cat loves their company and attention. Will definitely be booking again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Kathryn was so gracious in accepting this assignment with short notice and communicated very well while I was away. She took the time to give my love-bug feline plenty of attention and sent photos from each visit. She followed my care instructions and asked questions when they were not clear. Would feel comfortable booking her again”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. My oldest is currently 14 (Archie my beagle/wiener dog mix) and soul pup Winston (bluetick beagle/bloodhound mix who passed in 2020). I miss having dogs of my own but know that I cannot dedicate the funds to getting one of my own just yet. I’d would be so happy to spend time with your pup(s) to give them all the love/snuggles I can! I’m very active so expect lots of walks too. I’m relatively new to Rover but have found two amazing clients (one preferred to go through Venmo instead but would be willing to provide recommendations). I do currently work full time as a graduate student researcher. My days are very variable though. If sitting your dog, I can plan my experiments around their walks/make sure I am home as long as I can be with them! Weekends are certainly preferred though as I cannot escape my classes Tuesday/Thursday/Friday I have a unit right next to my complex’s dog park, so I can let them out to run and play! I do not have crates or bowls for food/water so those would have to be provided (and food/treats too)!
About: This will be my first experience of pet care. I have a passion for treating pets with the care they deserve and give them lots of love. I will treat them as if they were my own. This would be an exciting experience to meet and take care of all different breeds of pets. I am curious of how other breeds act as I, myself have two chihuahuas and a french bulldog that are completely separate from each other. I would love nothing more than to help take care of other people's pets while also enjoying the time of playing and caring for the pet itself. I am care-free and easy going. If you ever needed more time for me to watch the pet, I would be more than happy to do so. I work full time but i’m an early bird and have all evenings free! I like to be active and go on walks anyways and it will be lovely to do it with a furry friend! I do not care for pets inside my own home but in a client home, I will do anything necessary for the pet under owners orders! I work best with a schedule.
About: I have cared for many dogs of my friends and family while they are away on vacation. I have experience bathing, feeding, and walking dogs. I recently moved to North Carolina from Ohio after getting married! I am unemployed other than being a stay at home wife. My schedule is currently very flexible! I am always working to keep my cats area clean so that he can feel safe and relaxed. I also make sure to brush him once a day. We make sure to take our dog Suki on a walk at least a couple times a week and also brush her once a day.
About: For me, pets are family, not just animals we care for! 🤍 As a dog mom to Scottie, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether that means playing fetch, keeping them company, giving extra cuddles, or sending you cute updates while you’re away, I want you to feel at ease knowing your babies are in good hands. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home! 🐶💕 I have a daily routine with my own dog, Scottie, and understand the importance of keeping pets on their regular schedules. I’m happy to fit pet care into my routine and provide feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention while their owners are away! 🐾 I offer my services at YOUR home. I feel it’s important to keep animals where they are comfortable and feel safe while you are away!🐾
“Aubrey took wonderful care of my senior cat. She provided detailed updates every day and was available for phone calls. She brushed her and made sure she had her meds and special treats. She went above and beyond. It was a longer trip than I usually take, and it was reassuring to know my cat was being cared for so well.”
“Rachel showed up when she said she would and left the home tidy. The cat seemed to be in good spirits at the end of her visit. I would have appreciated more frequent photos/communication, but otherwise everything was great.”
About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved being around them. I also have experience dog sitting for a friend, including staying overnight to care for her dogs while she was away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and company! I’m currently an online college student and work part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week and am happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s normal routine! I’ll make sure to follow any instructions you leave for your pets and keep their normal routine as much as possible. I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care while making sure they’re safe and comfortable in their own home.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 11 years old. Family, friends and neighbors have entrusted me to come into their homes to feed, let out, clean up and give lots of attention and love to their pets. I am a teacher’s assistant at an elementary school, so I’m available early mornings and anytime after 3:30 during the week. I’m also available on weekends and during the summertime. I’m currently unable to take pets in my home as I have my own sweet Labrador Retriever and Australian Labradoodle and an adorable cat, but I’m available to travel to your residence to take excellent care of your pets.
“Roselynn was great to work with! She even managed to get a picture of my very shy cat. She is a great communicator and gave me updates every day. I look forward to having her pet sit my cat Ziggy again.”
About: I’ve had pets in my home ever since childhood. I make it my priority to put my fur babies first and would do the same with yours! I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs, and I pay close attention to details so they stay comfortable and happy while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own and provide reliable care with clear communication and regular updates. I value trust, community, and long-term relationships, and I’m experienced with pets of different ages, temperaments, and needs. I do work a full-time job so my schedule does fluctuate. I am very willing to work out a time and place! I’m here to dedicate my time into taking care of your babies :) Make sure they’re fed accordingly to their diet, insure they have access to water constantly. Check on them multiple times a day and of course give them the attention they need.
“Justin was so easy to work with! He took great care of my two cats and sent a lot of pictures. I would definitely bring Justin in for future trips to help watch my angels.”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Hillsdale is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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.

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.
