“I will definitely book with Asja again. She took care of me cat, and he seemed very calm and happy with her. She was easy to get a hold of. Quick response to any questionsi may have, very pleasant to be around. Thank you for taking good care of my fur baby. Laura”
“I had a last minute work trip and was very hesitant as a 1st time Rover user. Especially, since I have a kitten and a senior cat with different personalities and needs. Angel was absolutely the best and kept excellent communication with me. Both cats were well taken care of, she was able to get pics of my shy senior under my bed and alerted me when 1 of my water foundations stop working. Incredibly thankful to have found her on Rover.”
About: I have 5 years experience in the animal field professionally. I have learned animal behavior and signs, I have learned patience and understanding, how to build a bond, and so much more. I am currently working 4 days a week. I have three days a week I can fit your pet care needs into schedule. I can also possibly schedule times around my job the other 4 days as I work a swing shift. I have two separate fences on my property and a secured dog room that leads to the year fencing area with AC, dog bed, access in and out, fan, access to water at all times inside with an automatic water bowl outside. I have a friendly, Neutered male Golden Retriever to keep them company if preferred, or there is plenty of space to keep them separate. None smoking and no small children. For your home visits, I would respect your space and rules as well as accommodate all your needs and request a n your home.
About: I’ve worked in dog daycares and boarding facilities building my knowledge and skills i already had prior to them! I am now a professional groomer and have seen a lot. I have experience providing medications, dealing with high energy breeds, and special needs as well. I have also worked with training for dogs, although this is not professionally. I have my own dogs as well, so they’re apart of my daily life outside of work as well! I love building relationships with pets and the pet parents. I do work full time, and my schedule is not set at this moment. I have every Thursday off however. I would love to fit whatever I can into my schedule to help out! Boarding in my home is not an option i have available at this moment, but id be more than happy to sit in pet parents home when im available. I follow instructions very well, and can problem solve. Routine is also something i’m big about, so i’ll make sure your babies stay on theirs!
“This is the 2nd time Sophia has watched my cat while I was away on a trip and she is phenomenal. She sends lots of pictures and specific updates. When I come home I can always tell my cat has been well cared for! I highly recommend booking her for your pet care needs 😊”
About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve regularly watched my friends’ dogs and recently pet sat for my mom’s client for 4 days, where I made sure their pet was safe, comfortable, fed, and well cared for. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to animals’ needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work at Amazon and I do night shifts 1am-11:50am Friday-Monday and my Off days would be Tuesday -Thursday would also be available Friday-Monday after 1pm I treat every pet like they’re my own! I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime and attention, and stick to their normal routine. I love giving pets lots of love and making sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their fur baby is happy and well taken care of.
“I can't say enough great things about Kyle as a sitter! From the moment I met him, I could tell he has a genuine love for animals. He really took the time to get to know my cat Ryuu and I felt completely confident leaving her in his care. During my time away, Kyle sent tons of photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease and showed me how good of a time my Ryuu was having with him and Jax. He even went above and beyond when it came to being accommodating about changes to travel plans and extending Ryuu’s stay. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and reliable pet sitter. He truly loves what he does, and it shows in every interaction. 5 stars all the way (If i could give him 6 stars I would 😂)”
“Teri is not only reliable, she go the extra mile to ensure your pet is safe, happy, content, rightly cared for. I promptly received a photo every morning, an update on his demeanor, an apology when a hairball was discovered on a white carpet, plus a sincere attempt in it's removal. My lil' boy was even gifted a new toy! How thoughtful and generous. I strongly recommend Teri for all you kitty owners, she's a godsend.”
“Isabel is an incredible pet sitter! She was able to take care of my cats at the last minute and would send regular updates about how they were doing throughout the trip! I will be using her in the future!”
“Dana was absolutely fantastic with our two cats. Such peace of mind! She even managed to give one of them the asthma inhaler which I wasn’t sure our cat would accept from someone else than me. Highly recommend!”
“This was my first time boarding my kittens, and I was very nervous, but Adreana made the entire experience wonderful. She checked in with me daily and sent lots of pictures. I’ll definitely have Adreana care for them again on my next vacation! Thank you :)”
“Kristina is fantastic! My cat has renal disease and needs special care. Kristina was phenomenal at providing that, and Im pretty sure my cat was upset Kristina couldn't stay. I think she really bonded with Kristina. Highly recommend Kristina. She's very professional, trustworthy and gentle with animals. Absolutely go with Kristina!”

I’m so grateful we found Doris to watch our three cats! She was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of all of them. She sent us so many pictures and thoughtful daily updates, which made being away so much easier and gave us such peace of mind. Doris was incredibly communicative and really paid attention to all the little details that make each of our cats different. She took the time to understand their individual needs, routines, and personalities and made sure each of them got the care and attention they needed. She truly went above and beyond, and you can tell how much she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We came home to three very happy cats, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We’re so thankful for her and would absolutely have her watch them again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Lacoochee
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 369 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lacoochee. 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
