“Brittany was fantastic taking care of our 15 year old, blind senior cat with health issues and our shy kitten. She was able to get the senior to take his oral medications everyday and provided very detailed updates and pictures during every visit. She was very communicative and always responded quickly. She was VERY accommodating when there was a mix up at the beginning of the stay (my fault) and she went back to the house for a second time. I trust her 100% to watch my babies while I was away. Highly recommend her to watch your fur babies!”
“3 of our cats are extremely shy and won't come out for anyone, but anytime Izzy watches them, all 4 come out to see her. This speaks volumes as to how Izzy interacts with them and the care she provides. She does an outstanding job and always sends pictures and updates. We highly recommend Izzy as a pet sitter and will continue using her for all of our future trips.”
“Valerie was great for our three cats when we went away for the weekend! One gets medicine in his food and she was able to administer that. Would recommend and rebook! 😻”
“Monica has been so sweet, and willing to come on last minute visit requests. She goes above and beyond anyone I’ve met, even voluntarily cleaning up puppy messes or accidents he might have gotten in to after breaking out of crates. She always keep me updated and sends the cutest photos. So thankful for her, and love to continue my pups play time with her.”
“Britney is doing a great job taking care of my moms cat while she’s in the hospital. Britney has been sending me pictures and keeping in contact with me. I highly recommend Britney.”
“I could not have asked for a better human to be looking after my handsome baby boy! Christa was extremely professional, reliable and handled my 16 year old cat's needs amazingly. She went above and beyond to make sure he was fed, had fresh water and even tended to his litterbox. I look forward to booking Christa again!”
“Jenny did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away. We would absolutely use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter”
“Alyssa did amazing! My request was short notice and she was able to accommodate her schedule time to drop in with Pongo. Loved the updates, and she has a great communication. Thank you so much for helping.”
“Working with Felicia was amazing! She took great care of our cats and gave us very detailed reports on their care. This made us feel extremely comfortable while we were away, knowing they were in great hands. Felicia is great at responding and goes above and beyond as a sitter. Would definitely recommend her for your pet needs and would love to work with her again. Thanks again!”
About: Hi, we’re Bree (22) and Nick (23)! We have loved and cared for animals our entire lives. Growing up, our homes were always filled with pets, ranging from dogs and cats to hedgehogs and lizards! Because of this, we are incredibly comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and unique care needs. We absolutely love all animals and will do everything to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home when you’re away. When your pet is with us, they will get lots of attention, plenty of playtime, and a schedule that follows your requests. We promise to send you daily photo updates so you never have to worry. We can't wait to meet your furry family members! Bree: I will be the primary person taking care of your pets! As a graduate student and a part-time substitute teacher, my schedule is predictable. I have class Wednesday and sometimes work weekdays depending on my course load. Fridays-Sundays I always have full availability! Nick: Nick has a full time job, so he will be available to help out when not working! Safety is my absolute top priority. I always ensure that doors, gates, and windows are closed before letting any animal roam. When we go for walks, pets are securely leashed at all times, and I am always aware of my surroundings. I ensure all hazardous items and human foods are stored far out of reach. For peace of mind, I provide clear communication and send regular photo and text updates throughout the day!
“To say I was very happy with Gabriela's care for my cat is an understatement. She was very professional, prompt with communication and caring for my cat. Gabriela made sure that Kitty received her medication on time, kept me informed of Kitty's progress and answered all of my questions promptly. She is very observant and made suggestions that were very good and clearly knew what she was talking about when making those suggestions. I would highly recommend Gabriela and will use her in the future to take care of my cat.”
“Lauren visits my dogs weekly. Always on time, great communication, gets the oldest couch potato out of the house and into the yard, and takes great photos. I'm very happy and comfortable to leave my pampered boys in her care.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Jefferson
I’m not sure Yaniera can do any wrong. She’s so reliable and helpful. At this point, she’s my cat’s Auntie. The pictures and short narratives she sends of Baby when I’m away let me know my cat feels loved and safe. Additionally, she’s brought in mail and packages that were visible and at my door, preventing theft. If you’re thinking about going with another sitter, don’t. Choose Yaniera. So grateful!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,203 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Jefferson. 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 .

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
