“Ni did a great job watching our cat while we were away for two weeks. She was very diligent about providing many pictures daily showing her completing each activity that we asked her to do, much more so than other cat sitters we have used in the past. Our cat is older and requires some specialized care, including a couple medications and cleaning up frequent messes she makes, having more difficulty than younger cats with her daily activities. Ni did everything she needed too well and diligently. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”

About: Coupon Code for your first booking with Rover :-) (giangd59383) I’ve had the honor to grow up with dogs since I was 7. I currently live with and care for a senior 15-year old chihuahua mix and a gorgeous 2-year tabby cat. It’s been a beautiful journey to navigate life with an anxious dog and a curious feline family member. I’ve learned that patience, time, and compassion is key. I am excited for the opportunity to meet your pet and get to know them 🤗 I currently have the opportunity to take some time to think about what I want to do in the next chapter of my life! I have plenty of time on my hands to spend time with your dog and/or cat! I treat your pets and home with deep reverence and integrity. I have respect for all boundaries and unwavering patience that is necessary for you and your pet to feel safe and comfortable. Trust is important to me and is a key foundation for all of my relationships. Transparency & Communication are also part of my core values, I will not hesitate to let you know if anything comes up and am prepared to give you as many updates as requested.

“I can't recommend Zosha highly enough. I scheduled daily visits while we were on vacation for our cat Chloe to be given her medication and some love - and Zosha did such a great job at both! He went out of his way to give her plenty of affection and even treats on her puzzle toy. Everything was clean and left in great shape, Zosha was super communicative, and sent lots of pictures! Chloe is definitely a fan, and so are we. Thanks again, Zosha!”

Patricha did a great job taking care of my cats. She took time and effort to gain their confidence and play with them. She was reliable and timely with her visits and great about following directions for feeding, etc. She went above and beyond to leave things neat and clean. She was great about communicating, and that freed me from worrying. When I came home, I found my cats relaxed and happy. Very grateful, and would hire her again (and hopefully will).

Elizabeth is the first sitter I ever used for my two cats and I will always rebook with her! She took such great care of my babies and made me feel comfortable knowing they were in good hands especially with one of my cats having a medical condition. Communication was fantastic, she sent an update and photo after every visit, and I could always count on her to be right on time.

Sarah has watched our cat at least three times now for extended periods of time and has done an excellent job every single time. She goes the extra mile by offering to do things such as watering plants, tidying up, rinsing off dishes, visiting extra days, and we are very appreciative and fortunate to have Sarah helping us, thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Jefferson on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $35 per visit. 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.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jefferson. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

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.
