“Marisa was an excellent cat sitter for our 2 year old cat! She communicated through out the entire experience and gave wonderful care to our feline. I’d 100% recommend Marisa and would trust her to watch our dear pet again in the future.”
“Marion was so attentive with our two pups! Her help allowed us to escape to North Cascades for the day and we were so happy knowing they were well taken care of. Highly recommend her to anyone in the area looking for dog sitting!”
“We knew within the first 60 seconds of Azure's meet & greet with our pups that they would be in good hands. She was immediately comfortable with our feisty little dog and by the time she left the short visit, both dogs were in love with her. Azure was very communicative, responsible and caring. We recommend her highly.”
“Absolutely love Melissa and Ryan! They really came through for me on a short notice and even helped me with undoing a hitch on my car. They say you find good people everywhere you go, and I definitely found some great ones. My pups loved them and I felt totally safe and trusted them to take care of my girls. Highly recommend!”
“Kami dropped by to walk our pups while we were away for the day, and they loved their time with her! She sent updates and photos, and the dogs were very well taken care of. Thank you, Kami!”
“Sophia was very attentive to the needs of my anxious and senior pups. She is great with communication, in time visits and sharing updates with photos. I highly recommend Sophia. Your pets will be in great hands!”
“Morgan was AMAZING taking care of our two dogs during the holiday super storm! Our senior had some unexpected accidents while we were away and Morgan went above and beyond making sure everything was clean when we got back! THANK YOU!!!”
“Arianna was awesome, able to come meet our cats and start drop-in visits on short notice while we were away for vacation. She was proactive, responsive, genuinely sweet with the cats, great about sending pics, and took care of everything we needed. Thank you so much Ari! Will definitely book again next time.”
About: I volunteered at S.C.R.A.P.S while in high school where I walked and socialized dogs and cleaned kennels. I’m also experienced in administrating medication in pill and cream/ointment form. I’m home from university for the summer and I don’t have a job so I’m free to watch your fur friends whenever you need me! My parents have two dogs. Lola is a healer/lab mix and Sophie is a pug. They’re both rescues and have anxiety disorders and some physical health issues. Considering the above, we have to take some extra care with them that wouldn’t be needed for other dogs but we love them all the same!
“Skylar was great with our elderly cat Lucky! Lucky usually hides from anyone who isn’t family, but she let Skylar take her picture and even accepted Nulo Treat from her. Skylar was flexible as our schedule changed a little and even helped us navigate the Rover app. I highly recommend her.”
“Donna was very trustworthy in her drop in visits with my very shy and reticent cat. Not only did she make sure the food was replenished and the box was cleaned, she made an effort to engage with the cat. By the end of the 4 day assignment, Miss Kitty was beginning to make contact -- quite amazing. Thanks, Donna.”
“Tami always sets my mind at ease! She’s highly reliable and both my cat and dog love her (as does my friend’s dog when visiting). She sends good updates and pics too. I know that my fur babies are in good hands when I have to work late and Tami drops in to take care of them.”
“Katarina was amazing with our sweet senior boy. She came to the house for outdoor time while we were away on vacation and was so gentle with him. I wish we were local, but anytime we’re in the area, she is absolutely who I will call. I’d trust her with Winston anytime. Highly recommend!”
“Braelyn was absolutely fantastic! Not only did she take care of my two cats in the way that I asked, but she went above and beyond to get to know each cat and what they like. Each visit, she catered to their likes and dislikes to make sure they were happy and got some meaningful enrichment and interaction. I highly recommend Braelyn and will be using her services for my future pet sitting needs!”
“Madison is great! Very trustworthy and my 20 year old cat always seems in good spirits when I get home. She delivers his medicine twice daily as prescribed and stays in touch while I'm gone. Recommend her highly.”
About: I have experience with caring for dogs of all sizes and many cats over the years. I've cared for large breed dogs and am well practiced with fur babies needing special diets and medications. I also grew up taking care of all kinds of pets in my home and showing proper love and attention. I work part time so I am flexible with my schedule. I'm available for overnight care everyday of the week and check ins Monday through Friday. You can count on me to respect boundaries of your home and keeping the environment clean, making sure your pet feels cared for and safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 417 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lawrence. 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 with handling special pet needs in Lawrence. On Rover:
- 97% 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 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.
