“We have two elderly cats that Christina took care of for over a week. I was so nervous to leave, but her attention to detail, kind spirit, responsible nature, and overall connection with cats was evident in our introductory visit. She went above and beyond while we were gone, and we will be using Christina again in the future.”

“When my train from the West Coast was unexpectedly canceled during a two-week visit there, forcing me to find another train that would get me back to S.C. two days later than planned, Moe helped me out without hesitation. She took care of Sebastian, my cat, with the same care and love she gives to her own pets. She also took care of other needs that impacted Sebastian, such as restoring power to the TV channel my cat watches after a power outage, and notifying me of water damage inside the home after a severe thunderstorm. Moe has proven time and again why she is a Star Sitter. She always goes above and beyond her duties to make sure your pet is safe and sound.”

About: I have had dogs all of my life. I love animals and want to make sure they all feel safe and loved at all times. I am passionate about taking the best care of all animals. I would rather tell someone that their animal was not happy to see me and not fulfill a wish than to make an animal do something they do not want to do. I take my time and always put the animal first, no matter what. I currently have a full-time job working with kids on the Autism spectrum, so pet care would be able to fit into my schedule evenings and weekends. I love animals, so I don’t mind! I live in an apartment that allows dogs, but most of the time I will be with your animal in your home. I treat all animals like they are family members, so I will always treat your animal with the utmost love and respect.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been a huge part of who I am. I currently have one cat with me at college and three more waiting for me at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I volunteer with the Humane Society and a local cat rescue, Comfort Cats, where I help care for cats in need. I am also Fear Free Certified, which means I prioritize reducing stress and creating a safe, positive experience for every pet. I’m currently on the pre-veterinary track in college, and my passion for animal health and welfare continues to grow every day. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, feeding, medication, or simply lots of love and attention, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I also work at a animal rescue by the name of Final Victory in Columbia! I am currently a full-time college student, but I make it a priority to provide dependable care for every pet I work with. My class schedule allows me to be flexible throughout the week, and I have even more availability on weekends. I plan my schedule carefully so your pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to follow your instructions and maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. As a Fear Free Certified caregiver and pre-veterinary student, I’m trained to recognize signs of stress and provide calm, compassionate care. I will treat both your pets and your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Kristin is awesome! I booked check ins for Christmas day and the morning after. I'm so happy she could check on my two cats. She had mentioned to me at the meet and greet that this was her busiest Christmas week yet with a lot of bookings. I have worked in retail for a few years now and Christmas week can be so overwhelming, especially with now that I travel for family while having pets at home. I am so appreciative that she was able to show them care and attention even with one of the craziest weeks of the year. I had booked her in advance but even then I was worried and anxious about this. My job had me scheduled christmas eve, and then I was taking a midnight train to Florida that night. Plus this would be the first night that my cats were alone together without me. I'm just so happy that Kristin could check on them, they were happy and comfortable seeing her while I was gone. I am really thankful for her and she's a great sitter.”

About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have two cats. In college I worked on a farm and cared for cattle, chickens, goats, pigs, and alpaca. I am currently a zoo keeper and have been in the field for three years. I have cared for reptiles, small mammals, some birds, and larger hoof stock. I have experience giving medications, preparing special diets, training, and observing animal health/behavior. I have worked with young and senior animals. My weekends are Tuesday and Wednesday, so anytime of day I am free. On days that I work I am able to care for your pets before or after. If needed I can also check on your pets during lunch. I am great at following instructions. When going into your home or staying the night I will provide the best care I can. I will make sure to respect your home and your pets!

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old! I helped train and take care of my family dog since she was a puppy, and I still do when I visit home. I have also recently fostered a puppy, so I am familiar with the concept of constant and longer term pet care. I am a teacher in the Columbia area, so my schedule is fairly consistent. I am available weekdays after 4 pm, and my weekends are pretty open, with the exception that I am out of town or on school break. I have a house with space and a fenced in yard, ideal for pets. I can let your pets out, walk them, feed them, and crate them if needed, as I have done all of the above for pets in my care.

About: I am a lifelong pet owner and have love for all animals. Caring for and spending time with animals is my passion. Your fur-babies will be in great hands. I am home full-time so I have all the time needed to care for pup. I will be able to keep them on their regular schedule with feedings and potty breaks if needed. I have a quiet, clean, smoke free home with a fenced in backyard and a screened back porch that your pup can enjoy. I also have a two year old Golden Doodle that is very friendly and can keep your pup company during their stay.

“Kelly was AMAZING!!! Her timing was prompt & she went above and beyond my expectations. Working long shifts in healthcare leaves me so stressed knowing my furbabies are at home alone & knowing they got such good care from Kelly was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Seriously, I can’t thank her enough. For taking the extra time to walk her, making sure she got multiple potty opportunities, and the photo updates. Highly recommend 🤩”

About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes and ages my entire life. My grandparents had a farm with 10-15 rescues at a time. I’ve had jack russles, Great Danes, labs, & pitties. I’ve been dog sitting all ages and sizes since I was 10 (cats too!) I also have experience with aggressive / reactive dogs and know how to keep them comfortable especially on walks. I am a helicopter dog mom and super particular about how my dogs are taken care of and I will be that way with your dogs too! I work Monday-Thursday with a super flexible schedule so I’m available most weekends and sometimes during the week for drop ins and dog walks. I have a 11 year old and 1 year old dog so I am used to stricter instructions and think it’s super important to follow them for the dogs safety and well being!

About: I grew up in 4H taking care of animals as one of my first chores. I had dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens/other fowl, mice, fish, lizards, and the sweetest sugar glider I trained to glide to me. I have experience with young animals as well as old with a range of disabilities and medical needs. I work part time and have a fairly flexible schedule to check in, hang out, and spend the night with your fur babies. I’ll usually need to leave between 4-8 hrs at a time but sometimes can spend the full day as well as the night at your residence. My client’s animals receive the care they want to receive while primary humans are away. If they need someone to play and enrich, I’m there. If they just need a snuggle buddy to not get lonely or stressed, I’m also there. I am used to clients with complex feeding schedules or high needs pets, just let me know what and when your furry dependents need! For my safety as well as your big fur baby’s, I cannot walk large dogs who pull on the leash or who jump onto standing people.

About: Hi! My name is Lyndsey, and I’ve been working professionally with dogs since 2017 as a full-time dog groomer. Caring for animals is something I do every day, and I have experience handling pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience, I understand that every animal has unique needs. I currently share my home with both dogs and cats, so caring for pets is a big part of my daily life. My professional grooming experience has taught me how to safely handle nervous, shy, excited, and high-energy pets while helping them feel comfortable and secure. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand how important routines are to pets, and I do my best to keep them comfortable while their owners are away. I work full-time as a dog groomer Monday through Friday during daytime hours. Because of my schedule, I am best suited for morning visits, evening visits, overnight stays, weekend care, and holiday care. I always communicate clearly with pet parents and provide updates so you can feel confident your pets are receiving excellent care. My goal is to treat every pet like one of my own and provide dependable, loving care while you’re away I’m a full time dog groomer, currently working 9-5 Monday-Friday. I am still able to drop morning or afternoon drop ins also overnights as needed I care for 4 dogs and 2 cats who have their own schedules. I also bring one of my dogs to work with me everyday

Highly Recommend Christina! Leaving your pet at home is one of the toughest parts of traveling, but after meeting Christina, my worries were alleviated. She is a gentle, kind person who obviously loves cats. My 7-year-old cat, Luna, doesn't normally take to strangers, but she must have sensed Christina's kindness, because the two of them became friends right away. While I was out of town, Christina visited and played with Luna every day. Getting daily photos of Luna was so reassuring, and it was wonderful to know she was in good hands while I was away. I will definitely be using Christina again, and I'm happy to give her my highest recommendation.

Alexis was wonderful! I was so nervous about leaving my 8 cats for ten days, but after meeting Alexis, and receiving my first couple of daily reports, I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation! I left 7 of my cats (one is diabetic, and needed extra care, so wasn't home), for Alexis to check on daily. She fed them, made sure they had fresh water, cleaned out all the litter boxes, and loved on the ones who would come out of hiding. She looked under sofas, in closets, and under beds, to get pics of the shy kitties! I would definitely want to book her the next time I need a rover! Thanks, Alexis!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Killian

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Killian is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 503 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Killian. 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 .

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Killian. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 , 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.
