This is our first time trying Rover, after being very disappointed by multiple dog kennel services. My dog is not animal friendly, but otherwise very social with people and has anxiety when away from home for too long. The choice was very easy when Gabrielle came up on the search options. She is a fantastic caretaker, follows instructions to a T, and Cherry and her bonded quickly. We can’t wait to start traveling more now that we have a trusted guardian for Cherry.

I cannot recommend Madeline highly enough! She took such wonderful care of my cat while I was away. I can tell how much my cat has gotten so comfortable with her, which says everything. There were a couple of unexpected accidents, and she handled them with such care, professionalism, and kindness. She kept me informed the entire time, cleaned everything up beautifully, and made sure my cat was comfortable and stress-free. She clearly has a genuine love for animals and went above and beyond to make sure my pet was safe, happy, and well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing my fur baby was in her hands. I will absolutely be booking with her again and am so grateful to have found someone so dependable and compassionate.

No doubt about it, I’d pick Kaitlyn to catsit again in a heartbeat. I am so beyond thankful for all of Kaitlyn’s patience, kindness, warmth, and compassion. She bonded with both our cats right off the bat. Our shy male cat warmed up to her very quickly. The anxious girl kitty took a bit longer to come around, but Kaitlyn made sure to go at the pace of the kitty in question. She was able to medicate our male cat, and made sure they both felt loved and cared for while we were away for an extended period of time. She communicated as soon as anything came up, and was very flexible! It was such a relief knowing our cats were in such thoughtful & capable hands for the holidays. My girlfriend and I could not recommend her more highly! 🩵

Raegan comes over on a weekly basis to help with my senior dog while I am at work. She’s reliable, communicates well on how each visit goes with pictures, and easy to work with/schedule. I would recommend her services if you’re looking for someone to help with your pup! 🐶

Janie is absolutely amazing! She truly loves my baby and it shows in everything she does. She always takes her time to write very detailed notes after each drop-in visit, and I really appreciate that because I love knowing every little detail about how my baby did while I was away. This was the first time my dog had stayed with someone other than me, so I was a little nervous at first. But Janie immediately made me feel so at ease and completely worry free. I feel 100% comfortable knowing my baby is in her care. We now have weekly drop-ins with her, and I truly hope she continues doing this for a long time because I feel so confident and comfortable leaving Evee with her. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter!

Brooke and Steven were so so great!! Victoria (my pup) was brought home just a few days prior and was feeling a bit anxious. They did everything in their power to make her feel comfortable and at ease and were more than accommodating with my requests. They sent pictures and updates, giving me peace of mind and were genuine life savers! So grateful for them and their services and will definitely be contacting them for any future needs!

Joesiiah was an incredibly kind and wonderful pet sitter for our cats, including my old man senior cat. He was incredibly patient with their needs, and took great care of them. I loved getting the daily photos and check-ins. We came home to happy cats and a clean litter box. Would highly recommend!

Alexandria was such an amazing help during the holidays. I requested her for a last minute sit and she was eager and willing to come sit my furry babies. It was my first time using a sitter who I didn’t know, and she eased my nervousness with daily pictures and feedback of the animals. Highly recommended!

About: I have had both of my dogs since they were puppies, Jamie (10 yrs old) & Peach (5 yrs old), and my cat since she was a kitten, Latte (3 yrs old). I have helped take care of family pets, neighbors pets (including turtles), and have helped care for animals in wildlife rehab. I love all animals and love providing them with the best care! I work full time, so I am able to provide care to pets before & after work. My hours are somewhat flexible, so I can make sure that I am spending enough time caring for your pet without it being too early or too late. I am familiar with crating and free roaming dogs; my older dog is crated when I am out of the house since he is prone to accidents, while my other dog is free-roaming. Different dogs require different care! I love letting my dogs run free in the yard to play and potty, but when it is wet or muddy, I will walk my dogs to make sure they can get their outside time without getting dirty.

About: Hi! I’m Mirella, a Texas State University student and lifelong animal lover. I’ve owned and cared for pets for over 8 years and have experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m currently the proud owner of a cat. I’ve pet-sat for friends with dogs of all sizes and personalities—from Anatolian Shepherds and Pit Bull mixes to Dachshunds and Maltese—and have experience caring for puppies through senior dogs. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Years of caring for animals have taught me patience, responsibility, and confidence working with pets of all temperaments. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m committed to providing personalized care that keeps them happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. In my free time, you’ll usually find me running, hiking, or spending the day at the river, so I’m always excited to get outside with energetic pups. Whether your pet enjoys long walks and adventures or prefers relaxing at home, I’m happy to match their pace. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate each pet parent’s needs. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and am happy to work with you to schedule walks and drop-in visits that fit your pet’s routine. Whether they need a quick potty break, playtime, or a long walk, I’m here to help! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, administering medications, exercise, and any special requests. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments and will always treat your home with the same respect I would my own. You can expect regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Hunter

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Hunter on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,554 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hunter. 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 Hunter. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

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.
