Top rated Japton cat sitters

“Elissa was amazing! She met with my cat before having me confirm/pay, which I really appreciated and she took great care of my pet. My cat was super happy, got lots of play time, plenty of pictures, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! If you are looking for a sitter you can rely on, book with Elissa!”


“Great job with my pet. She came and met her before the weekend, snuggled either my cat who needs human contact constantly, and followed instructions. If I could give a 4.8 I would, but rover doesn’t work like that. I would definitely not give 4 stars that’s way too low because she did a great job. I just came back and the litter box wasn’t cleaned was all. But I didn’t specify I wanted it clean necessarily either so that could have been my bad.”


“Katie did a great job checking in on my 4 inside and 2 outside kitties while I was away. She coordinated a meet n greet beforehand so I could show her some of the quirks of my house and pets. She also went above and beyond doing the litter boxes when she didn't have to and bringing in our mail!”


“Great care and communication! My cat seemed really happy and I was grateful to have Ashleigh to watch over him during the holidays. Highly recommend and look forward to working with her again!”


“We are so happy we found Rico. Our cat gets so stressed out when we leave her overnight. Rico took such good care of her. She acted like we had just come back from the grocery store after being gone for four nights. She was so relaxed and happy! On top of that the house so clean one could not even tell anyone had been there! Thank you Rico for taking such exceptional care of our Maxine! Best pet sitter EVER !”


“Lucy did such a wonderful job caring for our cat, Otis, while we were away for a week. The visits were as planned and the cutest photos were shared with us each day. We can not wait to use again!”


“Joy was a fantastic catsitter! She stayed at my home for several days over the holidays. She was very easy to reach while I was gone, and when I got home, the house was clean and my cats seemed very relaxed.”


About: I would love to provide top-notch care for your furry family members while you're away! I have been taking care of dogs, from toy poodles to German shepherds, ever since I was old enough to walk. In 2023, I began sitting for my parent's coworkers, and I've been doing (and loving) it ever since! I have no problem administering medication, providing frequent bathroom breaks, and cleaning up after they've had too much fun! I currently work just 3 days a week in Huntsville, so I have plenty of time devoted to taking care of y'all's pets :) I do drop-in visits 7 days a week, and I'm very flexible when it comes to scheduling overnight sitting. You will receive as much (or as little) communication as you want while I'm in your home. I'm always willing to send picture/video updates during my stay! Your pet's comfort and safety is my top priority when I care for them. I'm devoted to following any routine they may depend on to keep them feeling secure while you're away.

“Mary went above and beyond to care for our furbabies. It’s a hot weekend and she even checked on our chickens and gave them extra water with ice. Checked in with us each day and photos. We were at ease knowing all were being well taken care of. Mary is definitely our go to now!”


About: What sets me apart is the way I treat every pet like family. I don’t just care for them — I play with them, talk to them, and give them all the love and attention they deserve. Whether it’s fetch, belly rubs, or quiet cuddle time, I’m fully present and committed to making each pet feel safe, happy, and at home. As an athlete and student taking summer classes, pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. Drop-in visits give me a fun and refreshing break in between training and studying — and I love spending that time playing with and caring for animals I care for each pet based on their unique needs and personality. Some just want belly rubs and a potty break, while others are full of energy and love to play — and I’m happy to do it all! I take the time to get to know what each pet enjoys so they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I love to do a meet and greet before visits to get to know the pet before hand to!

About: Currently I have 2 cats who lived thru f.i.p., a formerly fatal illness. They are spoiled and happy now. They are indoors only,unlike previous ones. Retired, I can now flex my schedule nearly all the time. I live in town,but don't mind driving. I like dogs too,but have had few. I have a cat tower and open doors so these 2 have places to play. I can give meds, and have bathed cats in the past.

About: Hi there! I’m Meredith — a lifelong animal lover who truly believes we don’t deserve the unconditional love our pets give us. I’ve been around animals my entire life, from dogs and cats to bunnies and birds, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, snuggles, or just making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, I’m here to help however I can. I’d love the chance to meet your furry (or feathered!) friend and provide the same care I’d want for my own pets. 💛 Let’s connect — I can’t wait to meet your sweet companion! 🐾 Caring for animals brings me joy! I easily fit pet care into my daily routine with walks, playtime, feeding, and giving them love and attention. I prioritize safety by following pet routines closely, keeping a calm, clean environment, and earning trust through patience, positive reinforcement, and lots of love and attention.

About: We are a passionate dog loving family. We’ve never not had dogs in our house, on our beds, in our cars and rooted in our hearts! I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule. I love being outdoors so walks or backyard fetch sessions are right up my alley. I used to travel a great deal so I know the value of having dependable fur baby care. So, take that vacation and have confidence and peace knowing your pets are in the best possible hands! I treat each dog like I treat my own.. which means, each fur baby gets all the hugs and walks and belly rubs they can handle! If special circumstances exist, I’m very accommodating as I’ve had senior dogs and know the extra care needed for particular pups.

About: My name is Sarah, and I have over 20+ years of experience caring for and tending to my own pets, in addition to the pets of close family friends & neighbors (I just finally decided to take the plunge and make things more official on Rover and open myself up to the potential for new clients!) My specialties include house-sitting & overnight boarding for those extra long vacations or business trips: it is my greatest pleasure to make sure that your pet(s) are as calm and comfortable as possible during your time away from home! I also enjoy working with pets of all ages (puppies and seniors alike), and have experience in administering medication as needed. I’ve recently relocated to the NWA area after graduating with my doctorate in Vocal Pedagogy and Performance from CU-Boulder — when I’m not on stage rehearsing a new opera or musical, or teaching private voice or piano lessons, I enjoy spending my free time caring for furry loved ones! Since I live in Fayetteville, there are lots of open spaces, trailheads, and dog parks to take advantage of. Depending on your pet’s energetic needs, we’ll make sure to utilize as much of our nearby amenities as possible! I also have an acre of land for supervised playtime and potty breaks. I will easily adapt & maintain your pet’s normal routine & schedule, to make your time away from them as stress-free as possible (for both you, and your pet)! Per your request, I am also happy to send frequent photo & video check-ins of your pet(s) for added peace of mind and reassurance.

About: I previously working in a vet office I know how to handle all dogs and cats. I understand that both old pets and puppies need extra care. I can come by during the day since I am a stay at home mom I don’t have a scheduled job. I work on my own time. I am currently a stay at home mom, I have all day to give your pets all the attention they need! I’m very dependable person. I will do drop ins at your house. I come by in the morning and evening, while I am there I will walk, or take dog outside, or if you prefer a dog walk I can do that too. While I’m there I will freshen all water and food, of course send you a picture of what your pet is up to.

Jordyn P.
“I recommend Jordyn to any pet owner that needs a pet sitter. She has helped me immensely when I go on a trip by staying at my house and watching my two dogs. She interacts with them by playing with them, making sure they have food and water and by giving them their daily treats. My dogs love her and get excited every time she comes to the house. I have also heard from Jordyn that she likes to take pictures of the dogs she dog sits so that the owners can see how their pets are doing while they are gone which is a very responsible thing for Jordyn to do. Overall, she would be a wonderful addition to Rover.com!”

Tammy was reliable, punctual, and incredibly attentive to every detail—from feeding schedules to exercise and even little quirks that make my pet unique. What really stood out was the daily updates, complete with photos and notes that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dogs looked happy, relaxed, and clearly adored spending time with Tammy. If you're looking for someone who is professional, caring, and truly passionate about what they do, I wholeheartedly recommend Tammy. They're a gem in the Rover community! — Isabel”


Amy P.
