“Sidney did a great job keeping us up to date on how Elmo was doing and making adjustments as needed based on communication with us. He is a new cat to our family so she tried out some new toys with him and found ways to keep him busy.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by paws and wagging tails my whole life—basically raised in a household where the vacuum was always full of fur and the treat jar was never empty. Growing up, I cared for all kinds of pets, including those with special needs, health issues, and daily medications (yes, even the ones who could sniff out a pill from a mile away). Since 2018, I’ve been a pet parent myself, and let’s just say my dogs are spoiled with love, belly rubs, and probably way too many photoshoots. I genuinely love being around dogs—whether it’s playtime, snuggle time, or just chillin’ in the same room while they nap like champions. Every dog I meet gets treated like my own: with patience, joy, and the kind of love that involves goofy voices and spontaneous dance parties during walks. Whether your pup needs high-energy play or calm companionship, I’ve got them covered—and I’ll probably fall a little bit in love with them too. I currently work until 2 every weekday, so I can come by to make my visits, give my pets, and take them on walks as soon as I’m done! My weekends are typically completely free so I can easily come by to snuggle and hang out with the kiddos when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and seen - even in a short visit. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding and water refills to medication and litter box clean-up. I take time to play, cuddle (if they’re into it!), and give them the attention they need to feel calm and cared for while their people are away. I also treat every home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine, keeping things clean, secure, and leaving everything as I found it. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a play session, or just keeping your pet company, I show up with intention and care every time.
About: I am an experienced pet sitter with over five years of experience. My experience includes working with puppies, kittens, and senior fur babies. I am a retired nurse and have experience giving dogs their medicine. Moreover, I have experience with dealing with seizures, congestive heart failure and joint pain in fur babies which helps ensure safe care. Providing a safe, calm and loving environment is a priority while caring for your furbaby. Pet sitting is my full time job. I have time to provide one on one personal care for your fur baby. Would love the opportunity to do a meet and greet to review further availability. I have a fenced in yard for zoomies, fetch and reliving themselves. Our community has sidewalks for safe walking exercise too. I have two small dogs ( one senior & one puppy) and two senior cats to keep your Furbaby company. I have a crate if needed or gates if a need arises to ensure safety. However, your Furbaby will have free roam of the house if no safety concerns.
“Olivia was awesome and my cats really loved her! She even got my very nervous cat to come out and eat while she was out. She was on time and did a really great job! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Morgan exceeded my expectations. She went above and beyond for my sweet cat. She followed all the instructions and my cat who usually takes time to warm up warmed up to her very quickly. I would recommend to anyone looking for someone responsible and loving to look after your pets.”
“Sarah did a great job! She stayed to watch our cats for almost 2 weeks. The house was tidy when we got back and she was really responsive when I checked in. She even managed to keep our fat cat from getting fatter which is a a triumph in itself.”
About: Hello! My name is Megan! I am a Registered Veterinary Technician ready to love and care for your pets! You can rest easy knowing a compassionate professional is caring for your furry family member! I’m currently working part time so I have ample time to come play with your furry babies! I’m happy to work with you and your schedule! I am happy to accommodate any needs your pet may require! Just ask! I am happy to work with you and your schedule. Please message me for inquires!
“Sarah was AMAZING. She was thorough and communicative from start to finish, I could tell she pampered my little fur baby, and she sent me copious check-ins with photos. Easily one of the best sitters I've ever had, if not the best! Will definitely call on her first whenever I go out of town. Added bonus, her dad owns a music venue, and I've been looking for local places to play! :-)”
“Meghan is just wonderful with our pups. She’s patient, pays close attention to directions, communicates at a high level, and is very timely. We also love the adorable photos she shares. If Meghan is not caring for your pups, you are missing out.”
About: Just moved to Raleigh! I have cared for a wide variety of pet ages and fostered cats and dogs regularly back in South Carolina. I have had the opportunity to care for pets with special needs, medications, and everything in between. I have a flexible job so that I can be flexible with you and your pet's needs! I'm happy to work with you on times and expectations to ensure your pet is cared for as if you're home. My pets are very needy so I'm used to being held to a high standard of petting and showing love. I would treat your pets with the same level of affection!
“Nicole has been great and took pictures to send to me while I was out of town. Ad anxious as I was, it was a relief to see that my cat was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend using her services in the future!”
About: My family over the years have had dogs as pets. This is the extent of my experience with dogs. I am very willing to learn how others take care of their dogs. I am currently working every Weekend and would like to have a part time job during the week. I am a lover of all animals. Mix the two together and here I am to take care of your pets. I am a very cautious person especially with my pets. When I love something so dearly I make sure I do everything in my power to take care of it. I am this way with my two cats. They are also solely fed wet food. I try to do research on whats best for them.
About: Along with having cared for dogs my whole life, my most recent employment position was as a Dog Playgroup Supervisor in Massachusetts. My job was to pick up dogs from their homes and bring, on average, 8 dogs at a time to a private field for them to play and socialize together (As a treat take a look at my photos if you want to see some adorable puppy photos). I loved my job, but my partner and I have recently relocated back to North Carolina for him to attend flight school, and I am continuing my career in pet care! I love all animals and am passionate about providing exceptional care for your pet. I see pets as a part of the family, and since they can't communicate with words, I put great importance on reading their body language so I can help make our time together as safe and as comfortable for them as possible. I’m on my off-season from work, so most of my time is spent hanging out with my own dog Lucy! We spend our free time hiking and taking long drives to explore new places together! I am super passionate about caring for animals and plan to continue my career in animal care; caring for animals is my main priority. I feel it is very important to assess every pet and center my care to be focused on making your pet feel as safe and comfortable as possible. I have professional dog care experience as a Dog Playgroup Supervisor and provide reliable and attentive care right in your pet's home. I follow instructions closely, as every pet parent knows every animal is different! You can spend your time away from your pet knowing they are in great hands. I will also keep you updated with photos and will keep you in the loop about how your pet is doing during our time together.
About: I have at least 3 years of experience in fostering kittens between the ages of 8 weeks - 8 months. Also open to watching dogs! I am currently working hybrid and can be in the home full time 5 days out of the week. I have unlimited PTO and can take off for emergencies if necessary. I have a pretty spacious apartment, which is very ideal for cats and small dogs. There are plenty of cozy places for them to nap.
“My cats were in good hands with Brandon! He was punctual, checked in to make sure he was following their dinner routine as closely as possible, and sent plenty of pictures when I was missing my furbabies on vacation.”
“So responsive! My cat was acting weird one day and she went back to check out food, waste, and found out my girl ate a string. Very glad to have someone who cares about my cat when I'm not there!”
About: Hi! I’m someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pet, so I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just keeping them company, I try to match their routine and make things as stress-free as possible. I’m easy to reach, send updates and photos, and I’m always happy to help, even with last-minute plans. At the end of the day, I just want you to feel confident knowing your pet is being well taken care of. I typically work from home during the week and I’m off on weekends so I have plenty of time to tend to the needs of the fur babies. I have a large back yard with plenty of room for running and playing. I can walk your pets as much as you like but I usually walk them 2-4 hours. I have a friendly pup named Yani that will keep your babies company while visiting my home. I’ll treat your pets like family, with love and care!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Hopkins is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $23 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.
