“Allison is a phenomenal pet sitter! We have booked her multiple times and will continue selecting her when available. This past trip she even put the trash by the curb completely unprompted! She noticed it needed to happen and she got it done. She is trustworthy, reliable and our pets love her!!”
“Taylor was great with our cats while we were away! She sent updates and photos and went out of her way when one wasn't seen for a couple of days. She asked neighbors if they had seen her and left food and water out in case she returned when she wasn't there. She also played with them and cleaned up their food and litter areas efficiently. We will definitely ask her to sit for us again!”
“Christy catered to a last-minute request for a couple of drop-ins while I was out of town for a couple of nights. I had already booked her for a longer stay in the future, but I’m glad I added this additional session so she could get familiar with my Blueberry and he could get used to her. Needless to say, he adapted very well. Christy communicated very proactively and sent pictures often. Very much appreciated care for my baby.”
“Olivia has been doing drop-in visits for my puppy for the past few months and has been amazing! She is reliable, communicative, and always makes me feel at ease when I’m away. She always makes sure my puppy is well taken care of, gets plenty of attention, and keeps me updated during visits. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!”
“So thankful Laura was able to walk and spend time with my dogs while I was out with some friends for a good part of the day. She communicated quickly and kindly, and she sent several pictures of my dogs while she was with them. I could tell the dogs had enjoyed themselves and used some energy with her as they were still calm and happy when I returned home. I’ll definitely reach out to Laura again, and my dogs will be excited for her return!”
“Aubrey is amazing, she came through last minute to watch our Bo boy for a few days and even kept an eye on our cat and loved on him without asking. She kept me up to date and even came by last minute when our plans changed. A great human for your pets!! I'll definitely have her sitting with my animals again ❤️”
About: I have been caring for pets for almost 60 years and treat every pet as my own. Whether it is daily walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I foucs on making each pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I understand routines matter, so I pay close attention to your pet's needs and keep communication open with regular updates, photos, and messages. My goal is always for you to feel confident and for your pet to feel right at home. Retired, reliable, and available full-time to help with your pet-sitting needs. Happy to love on those furry friends whenever it benefits their owners. I have housed dogs and cats all my life. My home is safe and animal-friendly. I have a large yard to play in, although it is unfenced. Happy to walk the puppies as often as they would like, good for both of us!
“She was amazing! She took the time to start building a good rapport with our kitty (who is not the easiest cat around) and took care of her as if she were her own. We got updates and pictures with every visit.”
“**Morgan was wonderful!** She did an amazing job communicating and keeping me updated while I was away. I got great photos and updates that put my mind at ease knowing my kitty was being so well cared for. My cat absolutely loved her — I could tell she was happy and comfortable. I’ll definitely be booking Morgan again.”
“Desirae was amazing! She was super attentive to my animals and always kept me updated. She sent lots of pictures and did wonderful with my special needs dog. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I've taken care of pets for over 14 years. I currently have a 14 year old terrier mix and 9 year old pit bull mix. I'm very familiar with caring for senior dogs and any special needs they might need. I'm very comfortable administering any medication and sticking to a strict schedule because I know how important it is from personal expericance. If you're pet has a quirky habit or need, I'm your gal, no request is too odd! I know it can be so heartbreaking to leave your pets behind for a trip or work and I want to provide the comfort and peace of mind when they stay with me. I have lots of kisses to give and I love animals of any size! I am a work from home dog mom myself Mon-Fri so your pets can stay with me in my office all day. And I'm available most all weekends. I have a fenced in back yard that is about a quarter acre in a quiet neighborhood in the Boones Creek area of Johnson City. The back deck also has a gate at the top of the steps to provide extra security for the little ones or seniors who may have trouble. I am ok with animals being on the furniture so your pets can be as comfortable as possible in my home.
About: Hi! I’m currently a DPT student, which means my days can be busy—but spending time with animals is something I genuinely look forward to. I’ve always had a love for pets and understand how important it is to know they’re in good hands. Even with a full academic schedule, I’m organized, responsible, and intentional with my time. When I’m with your pet, they’ll have my full attention—whether that’s getting their energy out on a walk or just relaxing and feeling comfortable at home. Pet care is also a meaningful way for me to help pay for school, so I’m grateful for every opportunity and take that responsibility seriously. Im a current physical therapy student but my summer class schedule is lighter. I don’t have full days of class so I have periods to leave for walking and potty breaks and I’m home most of the day Fri - Sunday now! If they are up for it, I can take them on trips around JC and to the dog park (I love off leash!) I can also be available for any overnight visits, and am usually free for a whole weekend. My apartment is close to downtown so has many walkable areas for your pets. There’s a big field next to my apartment that’s perfect for potty breaks. I can separate the upstairs from the downstairs if they need to be kept away from certain rooms, but they have plenty of room to roam in my apartment! In my clients home I can provide any services as needed such as walking them, playing in the yard, or crating.
About: Animals are my absolute passion! I am currently a major in biology and I have 3 years combined working with animals from dog boarding facilities and veterinary clinics. In my free time I have been pet sitting for years as well! Both dogs and cats are in good hands! I work part time with a flexible schedule so it is easy for me to make time to accommodate! It is preferred that there is a notice, so I can make changes to my schedule as needed In my clients home I do exactly what is instructed to me and respect the boundaries that are set by the client. And of course, leave the animals happy and healthy.
“Natalie was amazing. My travel plans changed and she was willing to adapt her schedule. She was awesome with my elder feline who is 19. My cat doesn't like most people but I got pictures every day of her getting pets and love from Natalie. She also seemed less stressed than normal when I returned home, less needy. Overall amazing experience would highly recommend.”
“Amber has done a great job caring for Buddy, and he really likes her! He's a funny dog that won't hurt a flea, even though he looks mean from a distance. If you feed and pet him, he's your friend forever. I highly recommend Amber, and I'll be hiring her for all the time that I'm away from home.”

Natalie did another amazing job checking in on our two kitties while we were gone. She gave detailed updates on how they were doing and always sent photos. We knew they were getting lots of attention during her check-ins. We highly recommend Natalie as a pet sitter and will continue to book her in the future.
She went above and beyond for me when I had car trouble and couldn’t be back the day that I had planned on coming back home! She was super flexible and very understanding. I genuinely appreciated it. I don’t know what I would have done without her. 10/10, 5 STARS, I would recommend! My animals all loved her and she was very thoughtful and communicative. 😊👏

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Johnson City on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 187 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Johnson City. 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.

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.
