“Olivia was everything I needed in a cat sitter. She was kind, polite, and did everything asked, plus a bit extra! Olivia is already very experienced with cat sitting, so other than provide basic instructions about where to find things, I did not have to provide any other instructions. She filled out extensively detailed Rover cards (a first for any of my drop-ins) and provided ample photos, which I appreciated because I tend to worry about my home and pets while I am away. She made visual contact to confirm that my cats that hide are ok, and gave extra attention to my cat that likes to play and be petted. She had to bring her children to one drop in, but she asked first, and that was so polite of her to do, plus it ensured the safety of my cats and her children. The kids played very nicely and showed affection to my friendly cat, who gets really bored and lonely when we are out. She even stayed a bit longer a few times to play with him. When someone is dropping in at your home they could do almost anything and you would have no idea, so I appreciate being informed. You have to place a lot of trust in someone in order to allow them into your home, care for your animals, and make an emergency decision if necessary. Communication is a major component in earning and keeping that trust. Olivia followed all instructions, asked for clarification if necessary, and kept me informed on what happened at my house, the cats, and what she did while there. She even brought in my UPS box. She was an outstanding sitter, the best I've used so far. I would definitely use Olivia again.”
“Jess took great care of my Kona and Daisy. They tend to be a little shy when their mom and dad are not around. She was very patient with them and allowed them the time to have them warm up to her. Towards the end, they were all best friends. She also sent great Rover Cards and pictures! Definitely will give her ring again.”
“Holli has been fantastic with our cats! She is very sweet and goes the extra mile. We have had the best experience with her and we will absolutely continue to book her in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of personal and others’ pets from an early age. I’ve worked in a nature center taking care of wild animals, including birds of prey. I’ve always had a love of animals! My husband is active -duty Coast Guard and we moved back the the area in August of last year. I have availability throughout the week to accommodate a variety of needs. I look forward to creating personal care schedules to fit each families’ needs. For my home care, I offer multiple walks each day and my own well-behaved dog and cat for social needs. We are working on an enclosed backyard space for longer, free outdoor play time! Pickup and drop off service is possible. For client home care, I can be flexible, depending on the needs of the client.
“Sarah takes your pets’ well-being seriously, as well as your instructions for caring for them. She was prompt and responsive, and always kept us in the loop with detailed visit notes and great pictures. Our Taro Bun is very sweet but has some special care instructions and Sarah handled everything well, with no issues. Absolutely recommend her for conscientious pet sitting!”
About: I am Fear Free Certified, with 2 years of professional experience in animal shelters, and upwards of 5 years personal experience with pets of all shapes and sizes. I specialize is animals who need extra attention, like dogs who struggle with resource guarding or reactivity. My goal is always to relieve any animal of fear, anxiety, or stress. My schedule is open and flexible! I understand that things happen, and we aren’t always able to book a sitter a week in advance. I always do my best to keep my schedule open for same-day bookings Every pet parent does things their own way! I cater to each parent’s routine and rules. If your little one needs a slow and steady approach, I’ll always match their speed. If your dog has high energy and a high prey drive, they’ll be tuckered out and happy by the time I leave.

About: I believe this is an excellent way to incorporate my love for animals, and making money in my spare time. I can guarantee your pet’s safety and that he or she will get lots of love while they stay. My husband and I have two children. We live on 6 acres of land and I stay home. Your furry friend will be treated like one of ours. I will keep open communication with you throughout the duration of their stay, and ensure that your worries are at ease.

We have a puppy who is 6 months old who can keep your fur baby company or be kept separate if needed.
“We are so happy with Rebecca! She took great care of Willow and she was happy when we arrived home. It was my first time leaving Willow since we welcomed her to our family but after meeting Rebecca my mind was at ease. You can instantly see the love she has for all fur babies!! Highly recommend and we will definitely be seeing her again!!!😊”
About: I have owned several dogs throughout my life. Small to big dogs as well as cats. I now own a German shepherd who just turned one in December and have trained her from a puppy. I have a big back yard and love animals. I have experience walking dogs of many sorts and have baby sat for several people before with dogs of all sizes. I have water dishes and food dishes for dogs and leashes and live in a neighborhood thats friendly and not too busy so it would be perfect for animals to walk in.

As of June 2026, there are 11 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across James Store. 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.
