“Rachel was so kind to both of our dogs and a great communicator! She took great care of our fish by cleaning the water when my Beta needed it and trimmed my dogs nails even! Will certainly ask for her help again on our next trip!”
About: Hi! Thanks for taking a look at my profile! I’ve lived with pets all my life, and believe they are our blood relatives. I grew up with 3 dogs, 2 fish, and 1 cat. I adore energetic pets with a flashy personality, but also the ones who just want to sleep all day. Im currently a part time college student, and an animal lover! As of right now mornings and evenings work best for me. The gym is my go to, so walking with a furry friend is a plus. Other home got fence redone for pet privacy. With dogs we crate trained them. Baby gates were installed in home to ensure dog and pet safety.
“Kylie takes such wonderful care of our cat, not only with all the basic needs, but also giving her lots of love and attention with pets and play. Our cat seems very happy and relaxed as can be when we get home, and we definitely plan to contact Kylie the next time we need a pet sitter.”
About: I've taken care of many dogs and cats over the years. I can handle small, medium, and medium large dogs. For cats, any cat breed and size I can take care of. I clean litter boxes daily and walk the dogs 2-3 times a day. I feed the animals 3 times a day as well. I'm currently job hunting before i enter college part-time so i have plenty of time to watch and take care of pets. I draw and play video games often so i either have alarms set or check the time often for when i need to fulfill the pets needs. I have a fenced backyard to let the dogs out whenever. Also a dog gate on the upstairs level to ensure the dogs doesn't wonder around when i'm not home or asleep.
“Morgan was FANTASTIC! I had never left my cat with anyone except my best friend and was extremely nervous about traveling for the holidays after she moved away. Morgan's expertise and care made it possible for my girl to stay in her comfort zone, and for me to be with family without severe anxiety. He communicated clearly and often, gave me great updates (and photos!), and was the perfect mix of professional and personable. He took plenty of time with her even when he came out on Christmas Day. He clearly understood cat psychology and Cleo adored him for it (I'm a little shocked because she does not typically warm up to people that quickly at all!). All in all I could not be more thrilled to have found a trustworthy source of care for my baby girl, and will definitely be using Morgan again in the future! 🧡”
“Aleyah was good with our two senior cats. She was always prompt and made a point to come by before her first visit to meet them. She is always super prompt with communication and scheduling.”
About: My family and I have boarded dogs for the last year. We done much house sitting for families, boarded dogs, and have done drop in visits over the holidays and summer vacation. Taking good care of our animals is what we do. It is a big responsibility and we offer the best service! With updating you daily about how your fur babies are doing as well as sending many pictures and videos of them! Right now my schedule is pretty free during the weekdays and weekends with being a college student on summer break! I will be able to provide much attention to our animals. We have a fenced in yard but we will no longer board dogs. House sitting and drop in visits are preferred for our services. With these visits, we make sure that the animals are fed, played with, and taken out. When we leave your home, we will make sure the house is locked and your animals are safe.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 5 years through family, friends, and neighbors. I’m experienced with feeding routines, daily walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and providing plenty of love and attention while owners are away. I can comfortably administer oral medications, perform basic grooming like brushing and wiping paws, and I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Currently I am working from home which will allow for me to be as flexible as needed to watch all of your furry friends whenever necessary! I ensure that pets in both my home and my friends or clients' homes receive attention and loving care, tailored to their individual needs and routines.
“She took excellent care of our chickens while we were away. She was always prompt and on time, and it was clear that she was experienced with chicken care. Our chickens can be easily startled, but she handled them well and everything went smoothly. She did a great job cleaning the coop and kept us updated throughout our trip. She was also quick to respond to any questions we had and communicated very well. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable chicken care, and I will definitely book her again in the future.”
“Valerie, you were awesome with Jesse today!! I so appreciate your continued communication with both visits, it really calmed my heart that you were here for him. I will definitely continue to call on you as long as you're available!!!”
“Trina helped us check in on our cat, and responded promptly to my request. She’s professional, courteous, and maintained communication throughout the whole process. She gave our cat some treats, food, checked on her water, and most importantly she gave her some love 😻. My cat enjoyed Trina’s company and was PURRRing on the phone !🧡 Trina was kind enough to offer to check in on my backyard hens when I mentioned that I was little worried about them too. We appreciate all your help and the peace of mind you gave us while we’re away. 🙏”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better Rover for my girl Mindil. I have peace of mind every day that Mindil gets the love and care I would give her, while I’m away at work. Christina is super responsive and helpful and leaves the best cards for me to view after each visit. We got very lucky to have found her.”
“Awesome experience! Scherry was able to fit me in LAST MINUTE on a holiday weekend. It was life saving for my family. My dogs had a great time and were well taken care of. She was on time and very attentive and communicated perfectly. I would recommend and use her again!”
About: I’m a life long animal lover and will be attentive to all the needs of your fur baby! I have had animals my whole life and I have experience in dog walking and animal supervision. 🐾 My schedule is flexible for all services. You can message me to inquire if I will be available for the dates and services you require for the care of your baby Whatever instructions you leave for me, I will follow them precisely to ensure the proper care of your fur baby.

Kylie is absolutely the best cat sitter we have ever used! I would give her 6 stars if I could. We have a senior Russian Blue who is very skittish around visitors. She took to Kylie after her first visit. This was an absolute first in 15 years! It was very relieving to see how happy and well-cared for our 2 cats were by Kylie while we were away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in La Plata on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of August 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.

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.
