About: I grew up on a farm in Cambria/Lockport, NY and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. Caring for animals has never been a job to me, it’s just how I was raised. Growing up, I helped care for 50 baby calves, 2 horses, 18 cats, 8 dogs, a miniature goat, and over 1,000 exotic birds and parrots since my mom was an exotic bird breeder. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including senior pets, shy pets, and high energy dogs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet because I feel the exact same way about my own little dog, Bambi, who is spoiled and loved like family. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or just someone calm and caring around them, I will treat them like they’re my own. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks, drop in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, cat care, companionship visits, and overnight in home stays while owners are away on vacation. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, attention, and comfort, and I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals throughout the day. I am dependable, communicative, and willing to work with different schedules whenever possible to help pet owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for like family.

“I can’t recommend Tiffany enough! She was able to help us out with a last-minute request, and was super easy to work with. She came for a meet and greet and was so sweet to our cat. Charlie (the cat) has been anxious to be left alone for long periods of time since her sister passed last year, so I really needed someone to spend time with her and give her the attention we normally would. Tiffany did exactly that and then some! She sent lots of updates and pictures, and I knew that Charlie was being doted on so I could fully relax while away. Tiffany is clearly an animal lover and it shows in her care! She followed all of our instructions to the letter AND left our apartment in tip top shape. I will definitely be working with her again!”

About: I provide reliable, compassionate care for both cats and dogs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My responsibilities include feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, administering medications when needed, and giving pets plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection.I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely to help pets stay comfortable and reduce stress. I am dependable, patient, and committed to treating every pet as if they were my own while giving owners peace of mind that their companions are in caring hands. I work full time Monday through Friday from 7am to 3pm, but I’m available for pet care before work, after 3:30pm on weekdays, and any time throughout the weekends. I can provide evening walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, and weekend boarding. I’ll always communicate with you, follow your pet’s routine, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and quality care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large fenced yard for dogs to enjoy, and the driveway entrance is securely blocked off whenever pets are outside. Cats are kept safely indoors in a calm environment. I have two friendly, well-socialized dogs, and I always introduce pets carefully while supervising all interactions. I can keep pets separated if needed, follow your pet’s routine, and provide regular updates with photos so you know they’re happy and well cared for.

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 7 years old. I trained 2 Shitzus and 1 Chihuahua from puppies, and cared for them until they passed. I have skills in bathing, walking, grooming, feeding, and administering certain medications. I am very compassionate and will care for your pets like my own. I work full time, but I work a 10 minute walk away from my apartment, so if I am watching your pet at my home, or if you live near me, I can make afternoon visits for walks, feedings, or company. I leave my apartment around 10a and arrive back home around 6p on a normal day, but I can make afternoon visits as well and I can even work remotely some days. My schedule is very flexible, so I can make most things work as long as I know in advance. I have no pets in my apartment currently, but my apartment is pet-friendly. I do not own any crates or other items, so I would need to have those provided for me if boarding your pet. My apartment has doors to close in every room to keep your pet from wandering if need be, but I also keep my space very tidy and neat, so nothing unsafe is within reach anyways. I do not have a yard, but I live in a very walkable neighborhood with a lot of grassy spots for your pet to enjoy and utilize. I also have a fenced park nearby if they like to run around and play.

About: Hello, I’m Deanna! I have lived in the Buffalo area all my life & previously have had 2 dogs. I currently have a 3 year old dog at home. I have done 100+ services on another platform with a 4.98/5 rating. I am looking for some doggy’s to socialize with, provide them with activity & get some energy out! *Please note I am available for sitting but unable to sleep at the house due to childcare* I work remotely and am available during day for pets that need often check-ins. If your dog cannot be left alone for 4+ hours, I am your girl! I will follow instructions left by owner and check in with the owner if questions arise; everyone has their own routine and I want pet & parent as comfortable as possible.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my background as a professional caregiver, which gives me patience, reliability, and attention to detail. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including training puppies and providing extra care for senior pets, always tailoring my approach to each animal’s needs while giving them love, attention, and a sense of security. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work as a caregiver. I have an English bulldog mix named George, and I make time each day for his feeding, walks, and comfort. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family. I care for pets by following their individual routines and needs. At home, I ensure George, my English bulldog mix, gets walks, meals, playtime, and grooming.

About: I care genuinely for all pets. I have a great deal of experience in my own home or yours. Love and safety are my specialty. I have a full time job. Sometimes I am gone for 8 total hours but most of the time I can come home for lunch mid day and drop in visits as I work for myself and am always in the area. I have a fenced and gated yard. Your dog has the ability to come and go into the yard at all times while I’m home. My gate also locks and if you’re comfortable after seeing my yard setup I can also lock the gate and let your dog go in and out of my house throughout the day while I’m gone too.

About: Hi! I’m Katy! I am a veterinary assistant working at McClelland Small Animal Hospital, and I’m pet sitting not only due to my love of animals, but to use the extra funds to help pay off some school debt! I’ve had pets my entire life, and I’m so fortunate to be able to help care for others' pets every day. I will love and treat your critters like they are my own, as taking care of animals is truly my passion. I currently work part time at an animal hospital and own 3 dogs and 2 cats, so pet care is truly second nature to me. When I’m entrusted in caring for your pet and your home, I will be there all night and in the morning before I head into work. I will check on them during my lunch hour so they can have a potty break, lunch (if needed), play time, cuddles, and plenty of attention, before I'm back with them right after my work day. I'm always incredibly respectful of my clients homes, ensuring things are just as neat and tidy (if not more so) than they were when I arrived. Mail will be brought in, trash taken out, and bed linens cleaned. You're on a vacation, why worry about cleaning up when you get home?! The animal hospital I work for has a boarding facility for dogs and cats. When I’m not caring for others pets at work, I’m tending to my menagerie at home! As the owner of pets who have trouble being removed from their “safe space,” you can rest easy knowing that your pets will receive plenty of love and care in the place they feel the most comfortable. During a meet and greet, I come prepared with an information sheet to fill out so that I can make sure I cater to each pets specific needs. Everything from feeding times, food sensitivities, and jotting down your pets favorite toys and activities!

About: I am a full-time zoo keeper, so it is in my nature to take care of animals. I have also worked in a vets office, where I’ve had to administer medications, even insulin. I am very comfortable with doing any training that you want kept up with. I currently work full-time, but I am able to be there on my weekends all day, or be back at your house right after work for the rest of the day! I can do all of the basics, while also keeping up with any training you may need me to do. I can make sure your pets get all the exercise and attention they need. I will follow any instruction you give, if you like them out of certain areas or if they need to be crated when no one is home.

About: Ive had three cats and two dogs in my life. Currently I have two cats and they are my world. In many instances I've had a cat or dog that doesn't like anyone besides family come up and become my new best friend. Also have been trusted to watch multiple friends animals while on vacation because they loved our time together more than anyone else. During the week it would be a drop in sitting with minimal overnight stays after work. Which means its not out the question but not consistent. Weekends I have more flexibility for overnight stays. My cats are indoors, fed a heathly diet, and stimulated. While at the clients house its dependent on the type of animal and if the animal requires special care.

About: ✨ 8+ years experience | Medical care | Reliable & dog-savvy ✨ 🌞 6/1/2026: Please keep in mind that this is a busy time of year! Blocked spots on calendar indicate booked gigs outside of Rover. If you see any availability, please don’t hesitate to reach out! 🌞 Hi there! My name is Izzy! I have been working with dogs for a little over 8 years now, both in formal and personal settings. From managing a doggy daycare/salon to my own personal care sessions (which have been requested in state and international), I value all opportunities because it allows me to learn, grow and become more confident when caring for animals. I have worked with and taught commands to dogs ranging from puppies to seniors. I have also worked with animals who had behavioral issues, medical conditions such as seizures, liver problems and diabetes. I have administered medications and proper substances when needed. I believe that maintaining a routine is essential when watching animals because their world is a little different when they aren’t with their primary care taker. With this being said, if an animal has heath condition and/or specific needs, I would appreciate that they are disclosed before sessions. It is important that each animal is treated with care and is given lots of love. It is also necessary that the family feels comfortable with individual who cares for their pet and that they can trust them. I haven’t touched on all my experiences so if there are any questions or concerns, please feel free to share! Looking forward to connecting with you and your pets! Side note: I’m also comfortable caring for lizards and small pets, and can offer light home cleaning services during longer stays if requested. Additional fees may be required. I build my schedule around my pet care clients, so availability for drop-ins, walks, and sitting can be very flexible — including mornings, evenings, and weekends. If you’re unsure about timing, just message me! I’m happy to coordinate! I believe that monitoring activities like playing with toys and distributing treats should be supervised at all times. Having a routine is important so sticking to that routine essential when it comes to caring for a pet. I do not have a yard but dogs would be taken on walks everyday (rain or shine) if they were to stay with me.

About: I have had dogs and cats, and taken care of other small animals for my family for years. I understand the bond of families with their animals and respect that! I am retired from full time work, but do participate in volunteer activity. A part time role of caring for your pet as needed will best fit my schedule. Or providing in home care for your pet while you travel will work as well. I am happy to come and take care of your pets in your home, where they are comfortable in their own environment. I respect the pet owners preferences on how best to care for their beloved pet.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Lancaster

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lancaster is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $33 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 138 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lancaster. 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 Lancaster. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
