You can tell she spent time because of the details and photos of them crawling all over her!! I am definitely going to rebook with her in the future. Thank you so much Stacy!”

It was clear that Sally was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. We truly appreciate Yung-Chu’s kindness, reliability, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable cat sitter! 🐈🩷”
“Suzanna was wonderful. Our cat was very nervous and shy but she made sure to always find him to snap a picture. She sent thorough updates that allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying about our cat. We knew he was eating, drinking and going potty and she always made sure she spotted him before she left even if he didn’t come out of hiding. We’re very grateful!”

All my dogs are crate trained, knows tons of tricks, and of course spoiled because they deserve it!

“Kristina is the sweetest person to care for your precious babies when you are going out of town. Awesome communication and the most adorable pictures of our baby. Our girl loves attention and spending time with people. She also likes her alone time but the need for pets usually wins. Kristina was wonderful enough to provide all the pets our little girl wanted. We will definitely rebook with Kristina in future events if she is available.”
“Tina was attentive and took excellent care of both our kitten and senior cat. She provided daily updates and administered meds to our senior cat consistently and on schedule the whole stay. She went above and beyond to not just watch our cats, but to build a relationship with them and make them comfortable. Minnie was not thrilled to have her in the house, but Tina’s patience won her over by the end of the stay!! We are very grateful for her time. She will be the first person we contact if we need our cats cared for again.”

He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”
“Kayla was absolutely amazing! I’m so grateful to her and her daughter for showering my kitty with love and playtime while I was away. Kayla truly went above and beyond what I could have expected from a house and pet sitter. When I returned home, everything was spotless - she even washed the sheets, took out the trash, and handled other/extra details. I loved getting regular updates and photos of my kitty, which gave me peace of mind throughout my trip. If I weren’t moving soon, I’d absolutely ask Kayla to house sit for me again without hesitation. Thank you so much, Kayla! You were truly the best!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Leander
Yung-Chu was a wonderful pet sitter! My cat is very timid and hesitant around most people, and she was incredibly patient and understanding with him. He actually came out and made real progress with her, which says a lot about how well she handled him. I also really appreciated that she accommodated a meet and greet beforehand. She sent updates with photos after every visit, and I could see how much effort she was putting in with him, so I always felt he was in good hands while I was away. She followed all my directions, was completely reliable, and left everything tidy and in place. I’m so grateful, and I’ll definitely be booking her again!
Suzanna has helped us out in the past with out kitty needs while we were out of town and has always been great, but this time she went above and beyond. Our cats chewed through the camera cord that I use to monitor their automatic feeders and I was convinced something was wrong with 2/3 feeders. Suzanna moved her visit up to the same day I had my concerns. She switched out the camera cord, troubleshoot the feeders on the phone with us, and changed the batteries on the feeder. She gave us peace of mind while we were across country and allowed us to enjoy the rest of our trip knowing our cats were taken care of. Thank you so much!
Jennifer was great with my 2 senior cats. She asked lots of questions up front to be prepared and kept me updated on how they were doing. One of my cats has accidents and vomits a lot and Jennifer cleaned all the spots so I didn’t return home to a mess. Would definitely trust her to take care of my cats again.
Mandy was amazing and our pets loved her! She was very communicative and takes her job watching our loved ones very seriously! I loved all of the communication while we were gone and didn’t feel like we had to worry while being on vacation! Will rebook with her for sure!!
Sarah did a phenomenal job taking care of our Gemma, and Gemma always seemed so happy to see her! 😻 We would definitely recommend Sarah to anyone needing help watching their pets while they’re away. She helped with the feedings, giving cuddles, bringing in the mail/packages, etc. We can’t wait to work with Sarah again in the future!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Leander is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $31 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.

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 .
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 , 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 .

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 , 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.
