I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals and have been passionate about their well-being since childhood. Caring for animals isn't just my profession—it's truly part of who I am. Throughout my life, I have cared for a wide variety of animals, providing feeding, grooming, bathing, exercise, companionship, and lots of love. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive individualized attention, compassion, and exceptional care while you're away. I understand that every pet is unique. Before each booking, I take the time to learn your pet's routines, preferences, health needs, and any specific instructions you may have. Building trust with both pets and their owners is extremely important to me. I respect that welcoming someone new into their home can be stressful for some animals, so I work patiently to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys belly rubs, ear scratches, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, they will always receive my undivided attention and care. I believe caring for animals is one of the greatest acts of service we can give to the world, and I would be honored to care for your furry family members. For more information about me and my work with animals, please visit my Facebook page: Natalie Marie and send me a friend request or message. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾❤️ I enjoy the outdoors, so if your dog needs some activity i can provide that. Otherwise, I’m happy to take it on long walks, play outside, or give it some loving belly rubs/ear scratches/pets! After the ground rules are laid out, I like to get to know the pet and let the pet get to know me. A stranger coming into its domain can be a lot for some pets, and I respect that. Therefore, I want to make sure the pet (and owner) know I’m a friend and can be trusted.
“Jess took care of my pup Leia while I was away for the day at a baseball game and sent me update photos each visit and some comments on how the visit went. Leia had a lot of fun. Will definitely use Jess again!”

About: I have a lot of experience with dogs and only a few with cats but i love both and i am very excited to spend some time with your pets! It is currently my summer break so I am available all day everyday to watch or walk your pets! I’m pretty open to all things so just let me know. Thanks! I typically can’t care for pets in my home because I dorm at Eastern University, but in your home, my priority would be the animals well being and also your homes cleanliness.
“Tricia was wonderful with our 2 cats. We were away for a weekend for our daughter’s wedding so we needed someone that would care for them like we would. Tricia did that & more. It was wonderful to not have to worry about our fur babies while we were celebrating our human baby. Thank you Tricia!”

“We have an 18 year old and a 13 year old cat. The older one is missing several teeth so can only eat shreds. The younger only eats dry food but wont touch it if its been out over an hour or two. We hadnt gone on vacation for several years because we didnt want to burden friends with multiple cat visits. Rover to the rescue! Steff's daily drop-ins gave us the peace if mind we needed. She took care of feeding, water, litter boxes, and even meds. She came every day easing the burden on friends. She sent daily updates including photos of our fur babies. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Kelly is the cat whisperer (for dogs too!!) My 7 month of age ‘Cornish Rex” Luna loved Kelly for knowing everything about kitten/cat life. She provided play time, kitty meal time, along width affection. And during Luna rest time her liter boxes and dishes were cleaned. Kelly also advised me regarding a skin care question I had about Luna too. She is very professional, reliable and experienced with dog/puppy care too. I highly recommend her with confidence.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have been caring for them most of my life, so being attentive to their needs comes naturally to me. I treat every pet like they’re my own; making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or just giving them the extra affection they’re used to. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins for peace of mind. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious dogs and take the time to help them feel at ease. My fiancé, Eric has also always grown up with dogs and was responsible for taking care of dogs and his cat while growing up and they all lived will into their senior years. He is great with more high energy and active dogs, going on long walks, or runs and hikes with them. I work full time where I commute Monday-Friday. Weekends I’m home. My Fiancé also works full time but he gets out a little earlier than I do. For weekend stays we are available to give your furry family the most attention and care. If there is need during the week I’m usually away from home for 10 hours during the day including my commute time to and from work. We will walk and feed them before we leave in the morning and as soon as either of us gets home will do the same and then again before bedtime. In our home, pets are cared for in a calm, safe environment. We live on the second floor of a house in a suburban neighborhood with sidewalks, which allows for safe, structured walks. While we don’t have direct yard access, we make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and attention. I also have a senior cat who is naturally shy and takes time to warm up, so I’m very understanding of pets who may be anxious or need a slower, more gentle approach. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet time. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I always aim to make them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.

“Staci took excellent care of my 19-year-old cat who has CKD and special needs. I left an extensive sheet of instructions for her and she followed them all. She is always on time. Wonderful communication with cute photos. She's a great photographer! I would highly recommend any pet owner to any pet owner. You can trust her to give your pet the best care! I will be a repeat customer.”

“Sarah was great at stopping by and caring for my two cats. I almost think to good, my cats didn't seem to miss me when I got back. Sarah sent photos and spent time with them so they didn't feel neglected. Sarah also went above and beyond by shoveling snow! It snowed while I was away and Sarah cleared the walk way and some of the driveway. Plus she also let the cats have some outdoor time in the snow (they are indoor/outdoor cats so it was good that they got some outdoor time while I was away so things seemed normal).”

“Emma and Trent did a great job caring for my two cats. They were happy when I returned and they were able to successfully get Delilah to take her meds every morning. I would use them again!”

“Jordan took great care of Mona while I was away for several days. Mona can be sensitive to changes in routine, and Jordan was calm, patient, and very attentive in helping her feel comfortable. She was communicative, reliable, and made sure Mona’s routine stayed consistent, which gave me peace of mind while traveling. I appreciated how thoughtful she was in making sure Mona was well cared for and comfortable. Over the course of the visits, Mona became more relaxed and even playful, which really speaks to Jordan’s approach and attentiveness. Jordan is responsible, kind, and clearly cares about the animals she works with. I would absolutely recommend her and would gladly book with her again.”

Molly is prompt, kind and a true cat lover. She was sensitive to my needs as well as Priscilla’s. This was important to me because it was my first time having a cat sitter. She is flexible and willing to accommodate small changes in the schedule. I would definitely hire her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Islandia on Rover is $30.53 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 3,018 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Islandia. 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 Islandia. On Rover:

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.
