“Alexandra did an excellent job of keeping me in the loop about my kiddos! She gave me daily photos and a little story about them daily as well so I knew their routine never changed. Having her take care of them as I went out of the country just lifted a weight off my shoulders knowing they’re in amazing hands!”
“Declan was a great sitter! Look forward to working with him in the future. Would highly recommend him and what he offers your animals. It is hard to find someone as good as him, and we are lucky to have him!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I am usually the one friends and family reach out to watch their dogs when they are gone. I work from home full time, which gives me time and flexibility to spend time playing or walking your pet. I am able to fit right into their schedule I have a small backyard that is good enough for your dog's bathroom needs and live in a neighborhood great for walks. I also have stairs in my home but I am more than happy to help or carry them.
“Thank you so much. I'm so happy they entertain you every time. Glad you can enjoy the love they want to share. Also happy for great weather. They'll be looking forward to seeing you again soon.”
“I was really nervous leaving my 9 month month old kitty and 18 year old cat at home for 5 days while i was gone, but Rachel was such a wonderful sitter, and provided me with wonderful photos and thoughtful, detailed updates while i was gone that really put my mind at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Rachel really went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well taken care of, played with and happy. She even brought a few toys and treats for them to play with! And my 18 year old cat needed a topical medicine in her ear each day, which Rachel applied to her no problem… meaning my cat really trusts her. I almost think my cats were a little disappointed to see me instead of Rachel opening the door when i got home yesterday haha! Thanks so much Rachel - we will absolutely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!! I highly recommend her :)”
“Emily visited daily and fed the cats as per instructions. She gave them attention and sent photos. She went above and beyond with the litter boxes and other minor chores. I would book her again.”
“I appreciated Sydneys prompt response to my initial inquiry and questions/messages. She was flexible on short notice to come to meet us and do a drop in the next day. Followed all instructions (in my way too long note), checked in, sent pictures and all was well with my pup on return. Sydney is nice, mature and trustworthy. She is just starting out on Rover so for just figuring all that out — she was great. Sometimes I look for a lot of reviews but glad I gave Sydney a try for sure. Don’t hesitate — I recommend Sydney and I’ll book with her again!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was a child and now I have my own 3 dogs as an adult. I’m the go-to pet sitter and helper for all of my friends and family. I’m currently working part-time and can help during the week day from 9 am - 3 pm. I love to help out and am looking forward to doing drop ins. My three dogs are escape artists so I have become well-versed in making sure they are secured while entering and exiting the house. You won’t have to worry about anyone slipping out.
“Maria was a pleasure to meet and was very in tune with our cat from the first moment they met. She came over every day, played with her, fed her, cleaned her litter box and even took out the trash for us while we were on our vacation. She sent daily pics and even a few videos of their sessions and always kept us up to date on how Our cat was doing. She is a fantastic sitter and I cannot recommend her enough, we will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Kaitlyn was great! Gave all of my animals lots of love. Sent lots of pictures and conversed via text with updates. I have one pup that is skittish and a little extra work and Kaitlyn was patient with her and went above and beyond to gain her trust and progress was made in just a few visits. Really happy that I came across Kaitlyn on Rover and will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future. The consistency is great for all my fur babies but especially the one that is weary with new people. Thanks for loving on my animals! Clearly an animal lover <3”
“Haley and Alex were fantastic! Super reliable and responsive, and they were also incredibly friendly. Our dog is a husky and pitbill mix who gets bad separation anxiety and is also high strung around new people. He warmed up to Haley and Alex right away, and they were well equipped to deal with a more high strung dog. Highly recommend them!”
About: Love to have a furry companion on my walks and give them some time outside, I’ve had dogs my whole life big and small and always enjoy walking them. Me and my husband are working part time, and we love dogs, so we have plenty of free days to spend and take nice walks with your pup! Our house has a fenced in yard and we also have a few gates so the dogs can’t get to any places they shouldn’t be.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is I have 6 of my own dogs and I love taking care of all of them ! I take care of pets all day long on an off and I have 6 of my own dogs to take care of myself on a daily basis I feed my dogs all day on an off , I take them outside , clean up their poop , clean up their cat boxes
About: I’m different from other sitters because I go above and beyond for the families trusting me with their fur babies! I have 6 years of experience with taking care of homes and animals: I am a college student and part time nanny. I baby sit on Tuesdays Wednesdays and Thursdays 9-430 so those two days are unavailable unless you are okay with your pet waiting 8 hours to be let out. I make sure dogs are being let out every 4-8 hours. I will be sure to be changing water bowls and follow the owners feeding schedule. I’m pretty laid back so I love just cuddling with dogs and cats while watching tv or doing homework! I am honored to be trusted by families to take care of their homes and pets
“Emily was amazing! Our dog is typically skittish of everyone but she loved Emily right away (and so did we!). Our dog is also a little quirky but Emily didn’t mind at all. I would (and will) ask Emily to care for our dog in the future. I can’t say enough good things about how terrific Emily is!”

As of July 2026, there are 1,188 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Johnsburg. 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 with handling special pet needs in Johnsburg. On Rover:
- 95% 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 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.
