“Deena was great. She came on the right days and times and was so great to our cat Peter. She was very communicative and helpful. She listened to the directions perfectly.”
About: For as long as I can remember, I have been around dogs and cats. Whether they are my own or friends', I have always been an animal lover. I have had numerous opportunities to take care of furry friends and love to do so, especially as I am currently a traveling graduate student. Over the years, my experience has ranged from daily feedings and active walks to creating a calm, safe environment for pets while their owners are away. From one animal lover to another, I value bringing a high level of responsibility, clear communication, and detail-oriented care to pet sitting. I deeply respect every animal's unique routine and make it a priority to treat your pets like my own, ensuring they receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise. You can always count on timely photo updates and total peace of mind knowing your best friend is in dependable hands. During the week, I am off by 3:30pm and have generally an open schedule during the weekends to provide care, play and walks of many sorts. I offer drop-in visits and house-sitting services exclusively in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable and safe. With a highly dependable vehicle and strong time-management skills, you can count on me to always arrive on schedule. My top priority is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing dedicated, high-quality care, strictly following your routine, and keeping you updated every step of the way so you can have complete peace of mind while away.
“This is the second time we use Carla and she was great with visiting and taking care of our kitties while we were away. She’ll definitely be our first choice next time we go out of town.”
About: I am an animal lover and every summer I spent has been with all different types of animals from all over the world from spider monkeys in the amazon to sea lions and marine iguanas in the Galapagos to bull sharks in Fiji. My true passion is dogs and caring for them because they are so lovable and fun to play with. I’m available all year long and available at anytime. I will care for your pet like he or she is my own. My schedule is currently studying for the LSAT to prepare for law school applications this coming fall.I am mostly in the library and at home as well as visiting my grandfather in Mystic Pointe every week. I pray in the morning, work out right after and then study, work and read throughout the day. I have a French bulldog at home who is only friendly out of the home so I will only be able to provide house sitting services and any and all dog walking services :). I hope this is helpful.
“Naomi and Luis were such a blessing to me and my wife. We were able to leave the city for 10 days without worrying about our babies 🐈 Naomi and Luis put a cute birthday party together to my cat, they were awesome.”

About: Hi, I’m Olga! 🐾 Your pets deserve more than just someone to feed them—they deserve someone who genuinely cares about their happiness, routine, and emotional well-being. I know how difficult it can be to leave a beloved pet behind while you’re traveling or working. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and relaxed until you’re home again. Growing up surrounded by dogs and cats taught me that every animal has its own personality, routines, and little quirks. I take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable, whether that’s extra cuddle time, long walks, play sessions, or simply keeping their daily routine exactly the same. What you can expect when you book with me: 🐾 Plenty of love, attention, and affection 🐾 Daily photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing 🐾 Care tailored to your pet’s personality and routine 🐾 Clean food and water bowls, fresh litter boxes, and tidy living spaces 🐾 Walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of companionship 🐾 Respect for your home as if it were my own I’m naturally calm, patient, and observant, so I quickly notice changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and will always keep you informed if anything seems unusual. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or simply loves endless belly rubs, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care they deserve. Many of my clients tell me that their pets settle in quickly, become excited to see me again, and seem genuinely relaxed while they’re away. That’s the greatest compliment I could receive. I truly believe pets aren’t just animals—they’re family. My mission is for you to enjoy your trip knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and loved. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! ❤️🐶🐱 Hi, I'm Olga! My life is a blend of work, hobbies, and a deep-rooted love for animals. Here's how pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine: Mornings Are for Play: Each morning, I dedicate time for play and exercise. This is perfect for pets who need an energetic start to their day! Work-Life Harmony: I work a regular [9-5 job, or specify your hours], but my schedule allows for pet care during breaks and immediately after work. I'm also available for lunchtime check-ins if needed. Evening Cuddles: Evenings are for relaxation and bonding. Whether it's a quiet cuddle or some indoor play, I ensure pets get quality time after a busy day. Weekend Adventures: My weekends are more flexible, ideal for longer walks, hikes, or just extra snuggle time. This is perfect for pets that might need more attention during these days. Always Connected: No matter where I am, I stay connected. If your pet is with me, expect regular updates and photos. Your peace of mind is as important as your pet's comfort. Your Pet's Place in My Life: I view pet care not just as a responsibility but as a joy. Whether it's a quick check-in or an overnight stay, I integrate your pet into my daily routine with love and attention, ensuring they feel right at home. Pets bring a special kind of joy, and I'm here to reciprocate that with dedicated, loving care, tailored to fit their and your needs. Your Pet's Care and Home Safety: My Top Priorities While pet sitting, I ensure: Routine Maintenance: Keeping your pet's schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime.

About: I sometimes take care of my neighbors 2 dogs & another neighbors cat. I own my own dog in which I have trained myself & she is very well behaved. Growing up I had 2 cats that I loved very much! I'm looking for the opportunity to meet many other pets with my daughter because she too loves animals! ♡ I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty flexible! Time I wouldn't be available would be during my daughter's nap time (2PM-4PM). I have a yard, but only partially fenced. My dog roams around on her own as she is trained very well not to run off. She is very friendly & high energy; loves to run & play! The 2 dogs I sometimes take care of I walk them to my yard to do their business with my daughter in the stroller, I always make sure they drink water once we are back before putting them in their designated areas of the home. The cat I care for I always make sure to allow her to sniff & get comfortable, then I refresh her water & feed her canned wet food. I usually stick around for a bit to pet the animals & make sure they are good before I leave the homes.
About: Hi, I’m Danya! If you’re looking for someone who understands that your pet isn't just an animal, but a cherished member of your family, you’ve found the right match. :) With years of hands-on experience, I treat your pet's time with me as a specialized staycation, turning your absence into a relaxing, high-quality vacation tailored entirely to their comfort. Whether I am caring for dogs, cats, birds, or bunnies, my goal is to blend your exact daily routine with a premium level of attention that keeps them happy and stress-free. For dogs, their staycation includes maintaining their familiar walking structures and routines to keep them active and content. Cats enjoy a peaceful, pampering routine where fresh food and water bowls are constantly maintained, litter boxes are kept pristine, and they receive patient, one-on-one interaction on their own terms. My versatile care also extends to specialized pets; I am well-versed in providing a calm, clean oasis and precise dietary handling for birds, too! By focusing on total comfort and detail-oriented care, I ensure your pets are living their best lives at home while you enjoy your time away. As a student, my academic calendar is set well in advance, my availability is steady, predictable, and highly dependable. I manage my time meticulously to ensure that school never interferes with the explicit promises, time slots, and routines we set for your fur baby! Inviting someone into your private space requires an immense amount of trust. Because I value that trust, my goal is to leave both your pet and your home in pristine condition. When I perform drop-in visits or walks, I treat your property with the same high level of care and respect that I give to your fur baby.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ives Estates
kassadi was amazing! she spent 7 days with our cat. feed, changed her water and litter box everyday. she constantly kept us updated about her eating and bathroom habits. She sent us updated pictures every day of our cat. Was very communicative. I will definitely use her again and I highly recommend her.
Emalie is wonderful, she checked in on Mr senior cat and gave her medication while I was traveling. We did a meet and greet first which was great and she kept me up to date with photos and messages which gave me peace of mind that my cat was well cared for while I was away. I would recommend Emalie to anyone!
Lola is wonderful, she watched my 16yo senior cat while I traveled out of town for work and made sure I was informed throughout the entire trip. My cat takes an oral medication twice per day so traveling can be stressful but I felt at ease and had peace of mind knowing that she was in good hands and well cared for. I would recommend Lola to anyone, thank you again!
Sara took the time to always make everything as clean and tidy as I want my pet to have. He’s not very sociable (18yo Cat) so she had to go hunting for him and took a picture every day. That made me feel like he was OK, eating and using the litter box. Thank you, Sara! Until next time (I’ve used Sara’s services before) as I definitely recommend her for taking good care of your beloved pets.
Amazing experience as always. Andrea is so patient and kind with our cats. We always know they are safe and loved when we’re away. She provides the very best care during each drop-in visit and her service never feels rushed. Also very detail oriented. Happy repeat customer. ❤️
Jenni was great with my 4 kitties! Although 3 out of the 4 of them hid most of the time, she did a good job at making them feel comfortable with her presence. She followed all of my instructions and even went the extra mile to sweep up litter from the litterboxes. I'm so glad I found someone who knows what they're doing and really cares about it too! Will definitely book again :)

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Ives Estates is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 865 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ives Estates. 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 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.
