About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to reptiles, birds, and small animals. I currently have four cats of my own who are truly part of my family, and I’ve cared for friends’, neighbors’, and family members’ pets for many years. I’m comfortable caring for animals of all ages and personalities, including providing medication when needed. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for just as they would be in my own home. And yes, I’m always happy to spoil them a little, too! My work schedule is generally 3 PM–11 PM, although the exact hours can vary, so I ask for about one week’s notice whenever possible to make sure I can provide the best care for your pets. For both drop-in visits and house sitting, I treat caring for your pets like a second job and plan my schedule accordingly. I’m happy to schedule drop-in visits around my work hours, including before and after work. For house sitting, when I’m not working, I’ll be at your home with your pets. When I do need to leave, it will primarily be to care for my own animals at home before returning. I’m committed to making sure your pets receive consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout their stay. The only exception would be if a pet requires specialized care or treatment during my work hours. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs beforehand to make sure we’re a good fit. I provide my own cats with consistent, dependable care and make sure they have everything they need to stay happy and healthy. They are all young, healthy, and up to date on their vaccinations, and I’m experienced with the everyday care that keeps pets comfortable and well cared for. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, litter care, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

I love animals, I will take care of your dogs like they are my own. I do full time college online, from home. I can be very flexible for times. I will be able to dog sit most of the time. We have a fenced in backyard. I feed, walk, and let out our dog everyday. I enjoy playing with my dog everyday! I love animals very much.
“Dieter & Elena was extremely nice to my cat and they made sure to send me video and pictures. I enjoyed that they did that seeing this was my first time having my cat being looked at. I would totally recommend both Dieter and Elena.”
“Ariel was amazing. She took the best care of our cat. We felt at ease while we were away on vacation. She went above and beyond for us and our cat. We received detailed daily updates and pictures. We definitely will work with her again and would recommend her to friends and family, because She’s that good. Thank you Ariel!”
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for many years and currently care for two Labrador mixes of my own, including a senior dog and a younger, active dog. Through daily walks, feeding routines, medication management when needed, and providing plenty of love and attention, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different needs and energy levels. Friends and family have trusted me to help care for their pets, and I understand how important it is to have someone reliable looking after your furry family members. I will treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work a full-time job Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, but I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends. Weekends are especially flexible for me, allowing plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and quality care. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability so you know exactly what to expect. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your furry family member is a big decision, and I am committed to providing dependable, attentive care while keeping you updated with messages and photos. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay in your home, I will treat your pet with the same care and respect that I give my own. Please note that I live in an apartment and am unable to provide boarding or pet sitting in my home. However, I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your pet’s familiar environment, where many pets feel most relaxed and comfortable.
About: Dogs have a special place in my heart. Growing up, we had a total of 6 dogs in our home! They were family to us. I have bottle fed some, helped some cross the rainbow bridge and saved my rescue, Peanut from the worst case of mange I have ever seen and today she’s the happiest, healthiest girl around!

You name it, I can just about bet you I have experience caring for them!

About: Hi!! I have had animals my WHOLE life, grew up on a farm so I’ve always been around animals. I have a cat that’s declawed and two kiddos in my home that love meeting new friends. I work from home and would love to help others by dog sitting and/or walking. I’m able to take the dogs out first thing in the morning, lunch time, and 2x in the evenings.

About: I started working at the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo in animal husbandry, then I ended up working at an animal hospital. I have been a veterinary technician for about 6 years. In this time I have gained a lot of medical experience with animals and have learned how to truly care for pets. I am able to care for older animals as well as any fur babies on medicine.

I am here to give your fur babies all the love and comfort so that you can go wherever you need to go without worrying. I am available to take care of your babies at any time of the week. I do have two pups of my own that I may have to go home to let out if staying at your home. If your babies are staying at our home then they will all get plenty of play time and couch naps. I am willing to come by a few times a day to let your animals out to use the bathroom, love on them, and feed them. I am also able to stay at the home if needed. I am willing to take your fur babies on walks if they need the extra exercise as well!
About: I have had dogs in my house ever since I was a small child and have taken care of them and trained them in crates, bathrooms, etc. I help friends whenever they need me to come check on their pets or keep them at my place and enjoy being around animals. I currently work 8:30-5:00 full time but I have somewhat flexible hours and the ability to work from home some weeks. Even when I am in the office I would be able to leave for a visit or two during the work day. I have a very nice common area and will be happy to walk your dog as much as they need. I also have a 7 month lab pup named Rico who is the best boy and would love to play with your pup. He has been great with other dogs so far but can be a little hyper.

Kaitlyn was amazing! I loved receiving the rover cards each day of our trip keeping us updated with how our babies were doing and sending photos along with that, it’s really a great comfort while you’re away. I feel like my animals were well taken care of, and I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 398 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Josephine. 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Josephine. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
