“Allyson was a wonderful caregiver for my Sunny boy. She sent pictures every day and seemed to capture every mood of his. She is a polite young woman who cares about animals and it shows. My Sunny warmed up to her and let her pet him. I would recommend Allyson if you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur babies while you’re away. I have complete confidence in her and would use her again. 😽👍👍”
“Had a wonderful experience with Karen! Punctual, thorough, and great to work with. She also managed to make friends with my very shy, anxious cat over the course of three drop in visits!”
“Brianna is great! This was our first time using Rover and we were a little worried about leaving our cat with someone new. Brianna was great at communication and was so patient with all our follow ups and questions that we had along the way! 10/10 would recommend”
“Michelle did a fantastic job for us during our trip. Our cats are shy around new people, and she really worked to make them feel comfortable and happy. Michelle went above and beyond to help our pets and check on our house as well. The pet photos she sent us daily meant a great deal to our family. I will definitely ask Michelle to take care of our two cats anytime we need to be away. She is wonderful!!”

About: Hey there! As the daughter of a veterinarian, growing up around animals was a given so I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and health statuses (if your pet needs any specific care). I also have two cats of my own! I look forward to meeting your pets! I currently work a full time day job, so my availability at the moment is mostly evening/weekend, but certain circumstances may allow for additional availability depending. I’ll be sure to help your pets just as safe with me as they feel with you and try to maintain their normal routine to the best of my ability.
“Kevin has been helping us with my aunt's cat who needs daily medication. He is professional, friendly, quick to respond, and most importantly, Cleo is getting her pills. He also sends us a photo of her after each visit which we find funny (she doesn't look too happy after being pilled but she does have a lot of attitude!) and also comforting to know she is being taken care of by someone who knows what he is doing and enjoys it.”
“Izabelle was absolutely amazing. She gave me daily updates with photos, which were wonderful. She was able to play with my cats, and despite them being shy they seemed very comfortable and loved from the updates I was sent. I would absolutely have her watch my cats again!”
“Emily did a wonderful job with our 2 cats. They are both scared of people and always hide the whole time we have visitors (even my cat loving family members) but they seemed willing to give Emily a chance right from the beginning. By day 4 they seemed to be crazy about her. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had many different pets of my own during my lifetime; all of different shapes, sizes and breeds! I have had close family and friends who call me for any dog sitting or care taking services. I am a teacher with a lot of availability during the summer so I can most likely cover any hours you need. I truly love animals and I will treat your pets like my own 🥰 I am a teacher during the months of August-May so I have a lot of availability during the summer. I can be available early in the day or check in late in the evenings. I make sure to follow the owners careful instructions that are left for me and will reach out with any and all questions. I am not shy with communication!
“Very reliable, trustworthy and quickly responds! She checked in/out and sent photos daily. Would highly recommend her and I would definitely book her again!! I even booked her last minute and everything went smoothly.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been taking care of family, friends, and neighbors dogs since I was 12. I love big dogs and small. I’m very active and love walking and running around with my pets. I’m a college student home for the summer taking remote summer classes so my schedule is extremely flexible and I’m available a majority of the week. I am surrounded by a large open grass yard and plenty of space in my home for inside or outdoor play. I also have a dog bed that I wash between every visit.
About: I have lived with dogs my entire life. I began playing a role in walking, and feeding/filling water for my dogs since I was 12. I have also watched my friend’s dogs before by stopping in a few times a day to feed them and give them love! I’m currently working a part-time job, most of the time I work night shifts. I am available in the mornings and afternoons Mon-Thurs for pet care and am able to be flexible on Fri-Sun. At home we use an electric fence for our animals but for others I accompany them outside on a leash. My two puppies who are 1 years old enjoy company but are very energetic and can be kenneled if needed. My cat does not do well with other cats without meeting/getting used to them over a period of time.
About: Current veterinary student with professional animal care experience. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics, animal shelters, and research settings, giving me experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog needs an energetic adventure or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I’ll provide attentive, loving care and plenty of updates along the way. As a veterinary student and lifelong animal lover, caring for pets is already a big part of my daily routine. I work a flexible schedule, in the summer allowing me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s individual needs and maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments through my veterinary assistant background. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requirements. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and can separate pets when needed to ensure everyone remains safe and comfortable. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving loving, attentive care.
About: I have always loved animals and caring for them. I grew up taking care of mostly dogs, but I have experience with other animals like cats, goats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I love meeting new animals and helping care for them. I am currently a student at Iowa state but am available all day Tuesdays and Thursdays and weekends. I’m available in the afternoon on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I cannot provide boarding because of the pets I have at home, but I can visit pets or stay overnight with them at their homes. I’ve stayed in ankeny overnight a few times but prefer to stay in Ames due to my classes being in the morning.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Kelley on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Kelley. On Rover:

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.
