The greatest! Not even a slight exaggeration. The kittens already miss her and are more friendly with her than with myself haha. Extremely trustworthy and kind!

Nikki was so good with our two rescues! I appreciate that she came ahead of time to get acquainted with them, and she was so friendly to work with.

Regina truly went above and beyond caring for my dog. She made sure that their time together was well spent and he seemed very happy in all the photos I saw. Would 100% recommend her to anyone!

Taylor watched my two cats over Thanksgiving. She tried her best to make the visits fun, giving them treat puzzles to do and playing with their favorite toy. Most importantly, she planned ahead when a snow storm was coming and gave the cats extra food and water in case the power went out.

About: I've always had at least one dog my entire life, and right now my family has 2. My parents always wanted me to be a dog trainer when I grew up, so this is close enough! I love all animals, and started taking care of my neighbors dogs at 14 years old. I'm a college student looking for something to do over the summer, and I would love to spend my time taking care of your dog(s)! I do basically nothing until August so I have an very flexible schedule. I can adapt to any type of home, and am good with anything. Once you tell me where everything is, I'll be good from there.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I grew up owning dogs, small rodents, and fish. I pet sat for several families when I was in highschool and I am on-call for my friends if they ever need a sitter. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats and they are my children. I am an excellent communicator and, if you'd like, you can expect pictures both flattering and not of your pets. I am currently in school and have class from 9-3 with breaks for lunch during the week. I can be available every weekday except for wednesdays throughout the day for drop-ins. I will treat your animals as well as my own. I am a fan of routines and will abide by yours to the best of my ability. I know how important consistency can be to make pets feel safe when their people are away. I am not able to board animals at my home.

This is the second time Taylor has taken care of my cats. I really appreciated how creative she was thinking of ways to get my reluctant cat to eat her wet food meal. Thanks for all your hard work Taylor!

Nathan was so amazing. We were gone for an entire week and nervous as we had never left my cat for this long. He was so detailed and on time every day for his drop ins. I was able to really enjoy and not worry! He even had to deal with a snow storm, getting locked out of our place (an apartment problem, not his), and went above and beyond for our pet care. I would absolutely recommend him and will be rebooking! Thanks Nathan for loving on our kitty!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Kirksville on Rover is $16.35 per visit (as of June 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 .

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
