“Morgan was great! I appreciated the pictures and communication while I was away. She gave me peace of mind and took wonderful care of my animals! I’ll definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Nejra was very responsive to my messages. She kept me well informed on how my cat was doing while I was away and the daily photos gave me piece of mind that she was doing well while I was away. I'd definitely book her services again.”
“Ashley was wonderful with Rocky and very dependable. She not only took care of Rocky’s needs, she played with him and made sure he was not feeling lonely. She was excellent about communicating with us. This service is so helpful.”
“My dogs and cat were in such good hands. Highly recommend him. Will use again and again. Was in another country and he was so patient with my payment issue. I didn’t have to worry even at 3700 miles away.”
“Thank you for watching my princess while I was on my vacation. Because she is shy around strangers, it was such a relief to see her trust you and become more comfortable with you each day”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better drop-in sitter for my cats. She truly went above and beyond, especially for my oldest cat who had matted fur. After asking for permission, she removed the matted areas and educated me on maintenance. I can tell how much she loves cats and how knowledgeable she is about them. I am so glad I found Rover and Sara.”
“Emily was awesome! She sent cute pictures and was very communicative. If there was anything she was unsure of she was not afraid to ask. I’m very pleased with my experience using Rover and I’m so glad I found Emily!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I always loved being around pets, and that passion has stayed with me into adulthood. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for friends and family, caring for their furry family members as if they were my own. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving lots of affection, or simply keeping them company. I’ve missed pet sitting and am excited to get back to doing something I genuinely love. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. If you're looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and who will treat your pets like family, I'd love the opportunity to help. I am currently working full time in a position that works from home. I have flexible hours and would be available most of the day for drop ins. I have two cats of my own that I love with my WHOLE heart. Currently looking to do drop ins as my babies aren’t super comfortable around other pets.
“Rachel did a great job taking care of Remy and spoiling him while we were away. Our pup is very timid and he did great with her. She also hauled in quite a few packages that arrived earlier than expected before they could get soaked with snow!”
“Ali was awesome. She set up a meet and greet for our dog Mia. Mia liked her right away. Ali was very detailed and provided updates and pictures of drop ins each time. Highly recommend Ali. She is very dependable.”
“Austin was very attentive to my 2 cats. He took plenty of photos and communicated with me very well. I will definitely have Austin check on my kitties again. He anleviated any and all worries that I had while traveling without my cats.”
“Troy was awesome with Asher!! Left very detailed feedback, and got him some much needed exercise during the day while I'm gone. Asher was very tired after, which is the goal! I have no complaints and would recommend to anyone looking to supplement some socialization and exercise for their pets.”
About: I've taken care of different breeds of dogs (labs, bichon, cavaliers, boxers, etc.) with ages ranging from puppy - end of life. Been referred from jobs to owners friends and have a passion to take care of others pets. I'm currently working full-time Monday - Friday, but would be able to care for pets outside of classic business hours. I have no reoccurring weekend commitments. When taking care of pets in the clients home I like to leave the home as good as it was when I arrived or better.
“Emily was thorough and attentive while watching our two cats for the weekend. She checked in with us and sent photos for each visit, and even accommodated some specific medication needs for our older cat, Sweet Pea. We loved the attention she gave and felt very comfortable leaving our pets in her hands. We will definitely be reaching back out to her for future travel needs!”
“Sarah we great and the girls loved her! My dog Gizzy has special needs (deaf and blind). She requires eye drops multiple times a day. Sarah did a wonderful job ensuring Gizzy received all the medications she needed. She did a great job with my other dog Meeko also. Meeko is a rescue and had some unpleasant experiences in her past. Sarah was great with her, knew just how to help Meeko learn to trust her and they became friends quickly. I would recommend Sarah for all you pets care and needs. Jenny D.”
About: I have well over 24 years caring for dogs. I believe a house isn't a home without a dog. We (me and my family) lost our dog, Teddy, about 11/2 years ago. It has been very hard living without him. I still look for him at the door whenever I come home. We are still heartbroken from his passing. Someday we hope to find the courage to love again. Until then we want to love on all the doggies that come to stay and play with us. When your dog is here he/she is part of our family. Please be willing to come by with your pup for a meet & greet before any reservations are made. Our main concern is that you are completely comfortable leaving your fur-baby with us.

I care for your dog as if he/she were my own. We will go on walks to Greenbelt Park, Grays Lake, and all throughout our neighborhood. We can play fetch in our yard. Also, belly rubs are a must :)

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Johnston
Geni was a superb sitter for our 2 cats! She was an outstanding caregiver who was thorough and thoughtful. We were away for 8 days and came home to pristine conditions and happy kitties. Her photos showed a lot of love and attention. We will definitely book Geni again for our next vacation!
Allyson did an excellent job looking after my cat, Apollo! She visited on short notice to meet him beforehand and ask questions. She visited often and was very communicative, providing updates and photos throughout the duration. Even through the snowstorm she did her best to get here and make sure he was well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Johnston on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 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 .

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 Johnston. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
