“Megan was great looking after my cat and took initiative to even clean up after my cat made a mess in the litter area. She is thoughtful and proactive when issues occurred. Great sitter, would definitely book with her again.”
About: Some things that make my care stand out! 📸 Daily Updates: I provide daily photos, videos, and notes so you always know how your cat is doing. 🧼 Clean & Respectful: I’m tidy, respectful of your home, and always leave things the way I found them — or better. 💗 Patience & Trust: I take the time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious cats, never rushing interactions. Above all, I treat every cat like they’re my own — with love, patience, and attention to detail. Your cat’s comfort and happiness are my top priority. Pet care is a central part of my daily life — not just a side job, but something I genuinely love and prioritize. I structure my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for, making sure I’m available when it matters most — especially during feeding times, medication schedules, or early/late visits. I treat every visit as a chance to bond, observe behavior, and make sure each cat is healthy, happy, and comfortable — whether it’s a quick check-in or just a little more time spending time with your pet to make them happy and have a little bit of company while you're away! When caring for your pet in their own home, my top priority is maintaining a calm, familiar, and stress-free environment. I follow your pet's routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules to preferred hiding spots — because consistency helps pets feel secure while you're away.
“Dakota did a fantastic job putting our minds at ease. She took care of our two indoor cats very well. She provided photos with every visit including videos of things we tend to get anxious about like locking the door. Our youngest one is afraid of storms and hadn’t experienced being in the house without us for more than a day. Even so, Dakota made sure she still ate, gave her love, and provided her with attentive and gentle care. Our oldest one is usually very shy and has to take medicine daily, so we felt awesome knowing he warmed up to her instantly and had no issues while we were gone. Whenever we travel again, we will be booking with Dakota. We’ve deemed her our official cat sitter! Thank you so much for everything!”

About: Hi! My name is Kylie, and I’m an animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I currently have one cat, Nova, who keeps me company, but I grew up surrounded by animals, including cats & dogs. My professional experience includes working for 5 years as a kennel technician at a boarding kennel in Culpeper, where I cared for a wide variety of dog breeds, personalities, and energy levels. During my time there, I gained valuable experience with feeding, exercise, cleaning, monitoring pets’ health and behavior, and administering medications to dogs who needed them. I understand that every dog is different, and I strive to provide care that fits each pet’s individual needs and personality. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, companionship, or simply a little extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your pets are family, and I treat them that way! I look forward to getting to know you and your furry friends. 🐾 I’m available anytime for drop-in visits to care for your pets, ensuring they receive the attention and love they need while you’re away. I appreciate your interest, but I currently do not provide pet care in my home. I focus on drop-in pet sitting for your furry friends.
About: I started my journey with dogs 4 years ago and have not looked back enjoying every moment since. I am a certified trainer who loves improving the relationship between human and dog. We have a dog yard plus 5 acres. All dogs stay in our extra bedroom, which is now considered the dog room. I personally have two dogs, a cattle dog and a husky mix. They are both very social with all other dogs. We like to have a good time here but I keep a very safe environment for the dogs, no fighting or picking on one another. NO DOG IS TURNED AWAY. If you think your dog is aggressive, I can and will evaluate them so that if possible, we will get them socializing with their own kind and having a great time. Thanks, have a good day! I train dogs for a living so I stay at my house 7 days a week besides when I work with clients and those lessons tend to run about an hour but no more than 2 hours! I have 9 years experience running my own kennel and have two dogs with a large fence so there will be no boredom here! I do prefer to kennel dogs for the night but as we get comfortable with each other they will start to earn more freedom! Pet care is my full time job and i wouldn’t have it any other way, it has been a blessing. I hope I can help make your schedule less stressful! While you’re away, let your dogs play! I have a five foot fenced in dog yard specifically for dogs. We also have another 5 acres that we will walk all client dogs on during their stay with us.-

“Megan stayed with my two kitties for a few days over Christmas. I will 100% be asking her to watch my girls again. She was went above and beyond, sending me pics and updates frequently.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 421 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Kinderhook. 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 .

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.
