“McKenzie is an absolute professional! She went out of her way to make sure that we and our cat were educated, comfortable and happy! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter.”
“We are so happy to have had Belkis care for our pup. We did the Myrtle Beach Marathon and needed help with our dog while we were running. Belkis came the day before to meet Toby and find our camp spot as we were also camping at the beach. She was wonderful with him and so accommodating to us. I highly recommend using Belkis for your pet care needs!”
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have taken care of my own for the past nine years as well as fostered a few dogs for a few days/weeks at a time to give it the chance to decompress from the shelter. Dogs are the best part of me! I am currently a student at Coastal Carolina! I have customized my schedule and have more than enough time to spend with your furry friends! I love to walk and let them enjoy fresh air as well as cuddle and rest. I will adapt to whatever your dog(s) may need!
About: I have grown up around animals. I have had cats and dogs.I currently live with two dogs. I truly love all types of animals 🤍 I can be available for housesitting as well as pet sitting as this allows me to be more flexible while still working my full-time job. (Mon-Fri 8:30-5:00). I currently have Saturday and Sundays off so I can be available in the early morning, afternoon, and evenings. I can not offer availability in my home at this time but at the clients house I would make sure the animal is comfortable with me first. I would make sure of they don't have a fenced in area that they are on a leash and make sure they have plenty of exercise and cuddles before I leave!
“Kelly was so incredibly wonderful. This was the first time we had her visit our 2 cats. She really cares about their well being and spent the extra time during drop ins to make sure the cats were loved a bit. We will be using her again!!”
About: I will enjoy having the opportunity to take care of your baby. I have 8+ years of experience with dogs of different sizes and breeds. I am professional, personable, accommodating, and qualified. Pet care has an open door in my schedule currently. All of my other obligations are flexible and can be done at a time of my choice. Honestly it depends on each dogs situation. Whether we walk around the neighborhood, go to a dog park, hang out at the house, your dog will be taken care of. I will keep your dog safe, clean up after them, and hopefully they return home happier then when they left.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Homewood
Anita went above and beyond. I hired her because I had broken my leg and could not get upstairs to clean the litter box and feed the kitties. She communicated along the way and even did extra cleaning of the boxes rather than just a quick scooping of the litter.
Ashley did a great job caring for my pets. She was on time for each visit and communicated throughout the long weekend. I especially enjoyed the pictures she sent so I could see for myself that everyone was doing great and having fun. I would highly recommend her!!
We are very happy with Sarah! I have a large pet family that are very shy, not used to having house guests and who have never had a pet sitter before and she was very sensitive to our needs. I have 2 senior dogs, 13 & 14 and I was worried they would take time to warm up to her, but on the second visit they ran right up to her with wagging tails! I have 5 cats, 4 of which were rescued as semi feral about a year 1/2 ago. She was playing and petting one of my shy cats like they were old friends by the second visit. I really appreciate her awareness of my pets sensitivities and her ability to make them feel comfortable! She is also willing to work with me as a helicopter pet mom so we couldn’t be happier that we’ve found someone I feel safe leaving my babies with!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Homewood on Rover is $13.32 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 342 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Homewood. 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 Homewood. On Rover:
- 95% 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 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.
