Ren was able to help me out on short notice, and was very communicative! They spent extra time with my kitties and even made them little toys. I appreciated how responsible and respectful they were of my home. I would absolutely recommend them to others!

This is for the stop in visits. Allison was wonderful with our very timid dog Lola. She showed up on time, fed her, and patiently let Lola get to know her. We received photos, and several updates on things. Allison was great with her!

Anna is a fantastic and reliable house sitter and pet drop in sitter. She is always on time and gives my pets their meds and potty breaks with play time. She took excellent care of my home and pets for a week, and does drop in visits for me as well. My pets all love her so much - even my extremely shy Siamese comes out to play when she comes over.

Pam and Kathy were rockstar pet sitters for us! We had a water issue the first day they came over. They immediately called me to figure out how to turn it off and I was able to take care of it when we got home. They checked on/played with our cats and made sure they got their appropriate medications. Thank you!

I had a weird situation in which the person caring for my animals abandoned them. Michelle was amazing and accommodating, went to my home after maintenence unlocked my place, cleaned up the mess my stressed out old man kitty made in a tub because he was alone for 4 days. Took care of him and the other 3 at the last minute for a week so I didn't have to leave my job (loose my job) and fly home. I was the most stressed out I'd been in years! But seeing the pics she took of my babies eating fresh wet food and playing every day helped me so much. 10000% recommend her and appreciate her and Rover for being here!! This is great app. Being able to see them check in and out, they can post photos and communicate like texting. Really great and will use again instead of depending on family!!

About: I am a huge animal lover with extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats, having lived with them all of my life! I currently have a dog of my own and take her on long walks twice daily. I love playing with dogs during the day, and keeping cats company with pats if they are interested. I’m currently a part-time student, so I have lots of time to drop by and care for your pets! Available during weekday mornings (Monday through Friday). I provide trustworthy in-home and out-of-home service, where I will take your dog out for a walk and to go potty, keep them company with play, and can provide training services too.

Amy and Eli were wonderful with my two cats! I was under the impression that my cats were just kind of antisocial, the pictures Amy and Eli sent daily proved otherwise, they took to them immediately. I was given the utmost peace of mind by the daily pictures and information I was sent that showed that my cats were having the best time while I was away.

About: Hi, my name's Betsy. I love animals of all kinds, and have shared in their love and care all of my life.. I ensure they get the best care and have also volunteered at an animal shelter where I assisted in taking care of dogs and cats. A long term cat owner, I currently am owned by a lovely senior boy cat. My goal is to ensure that all of the pets in my care get everything they need to be their best selves. I am cool, calm, and collected in emergency situations. You can count on me to get your pet(s) any care that they may need. I can also handle most medications and love to hang out with seniors. Daytime visits work best for me (I’m flexible on time) and can do some evening care if necessary. I appreciate your consideration I have a part time job so this is a great opportunity to give pets the care they need. I really love meeting new pets and making friends with them. I know pets needs and can make sure all are met I love to ensure that pets get everything they need to be their best selves, from basic care to assisting with training. I've been a pet owner all my life, and can do anything from long walks to play to administering medicine of all kinds.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, since I was about 5 years old, I’ve cared for 7 of my own, from tiny Chihuahuas to large breeds like Dobermans. I’ve raised all of them from puppies, including two full litters, so I understand the patience and consistency needed for training and socialization. I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs with medical needs and disabilities, giving me the skills to provide attentive, gentle, and reliable care for pets of all ages and conditions. I’m currently a full time student! Taking a couple classes! I have many days where i’m not busy! So i decided to give away my time ! I always prioritize pets’ safety, comfort, and routines. In your home, I follow feeding, meds, and schedules carefully. With me, pets get a safe, loving environment tailored to their needs, whether playful puppies, seniors, or special care. Every pet is treated like family.

About: I am currently in college for my veterinary technician associates degree and I have professional experience working with animals through positions at a pet store, a veterinary clinic, and in dog walking and pet sitting. These roles have given me hands-on experience caring for pets of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m knowledgeable about daily care routines and focused on providing safe, reliable, and attentive care for every pet! I am available on weekdays and on some weekends. I am available all day and some nights so I will have plenty of time with your pets! A fence yard is great for a safe environment for your pup! A good set of instructions will ensure that your pet is getting the exact care they need!

Bonnie did an amazing job taking care of my diabetic, anxious cat while I was away. She even did the dishes, and followed up to make sure I was able to make it home safely through the storms. Her wisdom and intuition after 17 years working in veterinary care are priceless. Many thanks!

Janet was amazing. She did twice-daily drop-in visits and made sure my cat got her medication and supplements at the right times. More than that, though, she was great with with my cat, figured out her habits, and accommodated her whims. I was gone for ten days, and they developed their own routine. Janet sent lots of photos, so I knew my cat was doing well. I highly recommend her and will have her look after Tacy again in the future.

My little kitty loved Kellie, which is a win! Kellie was great. She watched my cat for two weeks and made sure her water and food were filled. She also made sure the litter was cleaned every other day, which is more than what I usually do. She also watered my plants and took the trash out for me! My little fur baby definitely got some loving while I was away.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Las Cruces

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Las Cruces on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 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 .

As of August 2026, there are 93 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Las Cruces. 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 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.
