“Ashley has watched my cat Zoey multiple times and always does such a great job, she is reliable and always sends detailed updates about her visits! Thank you Ashley for taking such great care of Zoey!”
“Liliana sent me pics and freq updates. When I expressed that Dewey might be hungry bc he didn't eat in the morning, she gave me well-timed and helpful suggestions for how to get him interested in his food. It is comforting to know you're leaving your furry friend with someone who genuinely adores them!”
About: I have cared for different animals over the last 9 years or so. I have cared for dogs, cats, pigs and chickens and love doing so! I currently homeschool Monday through Thursday and also clean a house once a week. With that being said, I normally have a pretty flexible schedule. I am able to go feed and water the animals and spend time with them. I can send pictures of the animals to the owners and give them peace knowing their animals are being loved and cared for.
“Helene showed up on time and took great care of our family which consists of cats and dogs. The drop in visit gave our family the break and attention they needed. I have used Helene a few times and I will continue to use her.”
“Cheryl watched our cat while we left her alone for the first time, and she gave us peace of mind while we were away. I hope she’s available to watch her again during our next trip!”
About: I have taken care lots of dog breeds from pit-bull terriers to Yorkshire terroirs. I love dogs and I will make sure your dog is happy and safe. I’m currently unemployed so I am free whenever to watch your pets. From weekdays to weekends. Starting at 6am to 8 pm I am available. I can easily crate your dogs if needed, I’ll make sure to play with them when I am there visiting and show them lots of attention.
“This was my first experience with Rover, and it was great. Meep can tend to be nervous and anxious when I get home after an absence, but with Melissa taking care of her, this was the calmest I have ever seen her. Meep LOVED her, and recognized, as do I, Melissa's kind heart and great love for animals. She sent me pics of Meep each day, so I could have peace of mind knowing Meep was in very good hands. I highly recommend Melissa as a pet sitter!”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with our 2 dogs! She responds quickly, sent us pictures from her drop ins, and my dogs LOVED her!! We will definitely hire her next time we need care for our dogs!”
About: Since age 12, I've loved and cared for a lot of cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities.I have a soft heart for senior animals, and the playful energy for the little ones! I'm currently a student with a flexible schedule for walks and sitting for your pet. I'm available for house sitting, drop ins, and walks, during weekdays and weekends. When you trust your pets to me, you can rest easy knowing I'll care for them as if they're my own. Communication is key, and I'm happy to accommodate to your pet's schedule and routine, providing frequent updates to ease any anxiety.
About: I had a a mixed breed dog she lived until she was about 11 years old. She had a heart murmur and a really bad knee so I know how to help support a dog that might have health problems or mobility issues. I have taken care of another larger dog of border collie blue heeler mix that has battled dislocating hips, throwing out her back and cancer. She is 11 now I have worked with a senior Great Pyrenees and I know these aren’t dogs, but I have taken care of multiple rescue animals from anything from fish all the way up to a cat and I have nursed every single one of them back to health so I do have experience giving animals medicines My schedule is a little bit all over the place. I never really know exactly what days I am off or not but as of right now, I should be available between 11 a.m. to about 2 PM but depending on the day I can work later I will make sure that your pet will not get into anything. It’s not supposed to make sure your pet does not escape your house. I will follow your instructions of how you want me to take care to your pet if your pet is to be let outside in a gate I will make sure that the gate is locked and secured if your dog needs to be chained outside. I will make sure that the chain and whatever it is secure to is stable and the dog will not get loose. I will ensure your pet safety if I’m walking your dog or if it’s in your house, I will make sure that no other animal comes after your pet. If I am at your home, I’m not gonna let anybody into your home that you do not personally know and without your verbal consent that that person can enter your home.
“Shannon is attentive to your pet as if they are her own. She was a very sweet down to earth girl I felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with. Her visits are well documented with cute pics and detailed information about the visit. Her comfortability level with the bully breed was a huge plus! I highly recommend Shannon's services. Feel safe and confident choosing her to care for your pets.”

Brooke was SUCH a great sitter for my cats! I have a total of 5 and she took care of them with such love! She asked about toys and treats and where to food and litter box was before coming so that made me feel at ease! She followed all the care and instructions I left. She stayed for a good while and played with my babies and sent me so many pictures! It made my heart so warm and happy knowing I left them in such great care! She even brought treats for them!! Just went above and beyond! I will ABSOLUTELY be booking her again and you should too!! ❤️

As of June 2026, there are 12 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ivanhoe. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
