About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I genuinely love! 🐶❤️ In addition to having a dog of my own, I worked at a veterinary clinic where I gained hands-on experience with all kinds of dog care. I helped with daily tasks, took dogs for walks and bathroom breaks, assisted with post-surgery care, and handled the many responsibilities involved in keeping dogs happy, healthy, and comfortable. This experience taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, and gentle with every dog, especially when they need a little extra care. I love getting to know each dog's unique personality, whether they're energetic and always ready to play, adventurous and love going on walks, or total cuddle bugs who just want extra affection. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, loved, and right at home! I know how much your pup means to you because I know how special that bond is myself. I would treat your dog like part of my own family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles while you're away. You can feel confident knowing your fur baby is in caring hands with someone who has real experience working with dogs. I can't wait to meet your pup and become their new best friend! 🐾💕 I have a very flexible schedule and am happy to work with you to find times that fit your pup’s needs! 🐶💕 I’m available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, and am happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and daytime pet sitting. Whether your pup needs a midday potty break, some extra attention while you’re at work, or someone to keep them company during the day, I’m happy to help! I know life gets busy, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is getting plenty of love, care, and attention while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for someone’s pet. Having worked at a veterinary clinic, I understand the importance of being attentive, following care instructions, and making sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and specific needs so I can provide care that works best for them. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to respect the space, follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep food and water bowls filled as directed, and ensure pets are safe and comfortable at all times. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your fur baby is doing well while you’re away! I believe every pet deserves patience, affection, and individualized attention, and I will always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life, and recently adopted and trained a dog of my own. I have taken care of small to large dogs, and love to get my exercise in with my dogs. I am a full time student, but my weekends are completely free. I can take care of dogs later in the days on weekdays, but I would need to talk in advance about my schedule. I will always keep your puppies company and keep them enriched. They will be taken out to potty on a regular basis and plenty of time to play.

About: A walk without a dog is a missed opportunity. I have been a pet owner for 30 years. Chester, Goldie and Anya graced our home with love, lots of fur and many cuddles. I care for all pets as I have my own with a nurturing, adventurous attitude. I look forward to meeting your family! I go for long walks daily and would love to include your pet on the journey. I am available to care for your pet before and after work. I am off most weekends and some weekdays as well. I have a loving kitty who grew up with dogs and cats. I am happy to care for your pet in home. I have an available kennel for pups who find comfort there at night and am also happy to cuddle and play with them where they thrive. Miles of greenway are just steps away from my home.

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Alex care for our senior cat, Daisy, while we were away for 10 days on our first real vacation since she began having health issues. To say we were nervous to leave her is an understatement — but Alex gave us peace of mind from the moment he stepped in. He was incredibly communicative and responsive throughout, always keeping us updated and never making us feel like a burden for checking in. What truly stood out was how deeply he cared about Daisy’s wellbeing. When she had a bit of a health hiccup during our trip, Alex went above and beyond — handling the situation calmly, thoughtfully, and with genuine compassion. Knowing he was there when we couldn’t be meant the world to us. We came home to a content and well-cared-for cat, and we know that’s because of the love and attention Alex gave her. I wholeheartedly recommend Alex — I would trust him with Daisy or any future pet without hesitation. He’s truly a gem!”

About: I’ve taken care of 4 dogs at one time while babysitting 2 twins, I’ve catsit for 4 cats as well. I grew up with dogs and own 3 cats now that I live on my own! Pet care fits in my daily routine because I own 3 cats. Growing up, I had a dog and my family still has a dog that I watch when they go on vacations. I have professionally dogs at for 4 dogs that needed daily attention/food/bathroom breaks. In the clients home, I will care for the animals the same way that they do. As long as there is a routine, it will not get switched. I understand the psychological needs of a dog and when owners leave, new people are in the home, it can cause stress to the animal. Having the same routine can eliminate stress.

“Sierra took great care of my 2 cats. She took plenty of pictures and kept me informed of their well being. Scribble enjoys interactions with humans and I could see he really appreciated her twice a day visits, following her everywhere and rubbing his cheeks on her. Sierra was always on schedule and the whole experience with her from meet and greet to her last visit was drama free. I'll certainly try to book her again next time I need to leave home without my precious babies! Thanks a lot Sierra.”

We have had Sarah take care of our pets for multiple night overnights for our dog and cat and most recently, drop in visits for our cat. It’s been so nice to go on a trip and not worry for minute about the care of our pets. The daily pictures are great as well as daily updates. We couldn’t be happier with the care Sarah gives, and the peace of mind it brings!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - La Fox

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in La Fox is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $19 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 November 2026, there are 1,279 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across La Fox. 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 La Fox. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% 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.
