“Leah was great! Communicated well and sent lots of great photos. We don’t leave Max often because of some stability issues, so it was so nice to trust someone to be able to take care of him. Max definitely enjoyed having her come visit and would definitely reach out again.”
“Erika took great care of our kitty! You can tell she really loves animals, and our cat warmed up to her instantly! We loved seeing all the pictures and reading our little guy’s report card after every visit. She took the time to write detailed notes each time, which really helped us feel more at peace, and she was so easy to communicate with! I’d recommend Erika for all pet-sitting needs, and would be happy to have her watch our cat again in the future!”
“First time to use rover and very impressed! Thanks to Adeleine for making it so easy for us to trust someone who can really take care of our fur babies! Communication from the very beginning has been wonderful - she responds quickly! The photos she sent showed how much our fur babies enjoyed her company! Will be using rover again and will be working again with Adeleine! Thank you again Adeleine and Rover!!!”
“Sherron was a great sitter for our high-maintenance dogs. She took the time to make sure we were comfortable beforehand, and was punctual and communicative throughout the visits. We would use her again!”
“Melissa was WONDERFUL!!! She was looking in on our two cats while we were gone and always sent pictures and told us what was going on at each visit. It made us feel so much better about leaving them for such a long period of time. Will definitely use her again!!”
“Yung-Chu C. is amazing! Excellent communication and very kind. She helped us establish a new feeding routine to help our picky princess, iO, eat more and was quick to identify iO’s chronic (though dormant) illness that started to flare up. Caught it early enough to avoid a complete course of symptoms. Our cat absolutely adores Yung-Chu C and we feel so grateful to have her as our pet sitter. Thank you so much again Yung-Chu C.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Melissa was able to accommodate our last minute drop-in visit during the holidays and made our Hammy feel nothing but love. She communicated throughout her visits and provided real time updates. We would absolutely rebook with her!”
“Incredibly kind and knowledgeable pet parent who treats your pet like her own. If you are looking for someone you can truly trust with your home and beloved pets look no further. Highly recommended because she cares and it shows.”
“The whole family loves Jes, especially our dog. Jes visited our dog three times today while we took a day trip across the state. She wrote meticulous notes about our dog’s behavior at the end of each of visit and took him for a few walks when the weather was cooler. We will hire Jes again next time our dog needs some attention during the day. Thank you, Jes! You’re a true pro who loves animals.”
“Karen is my go-to sitter for my cats. She did check-ins twice a day and treated them with so much love and care. I was particularly impressed by the value she provides; her rates are very reasonable, but her level of service is high-end. She was even able to adjust her schedule when I arrived home early. If you want someone you can truly count on, book Karen.”
About: Growing up with and caring for cats and dogs my whole life, I understand the attention and consistency they need—especially when your schedule pulls you away! My goal is to shower your pet with love while keeping them safe and happy under my care. I know how important peace of mind is, so communication and dependability are big in my book. I have experience with pets of all ages, including those with medication requirements and behavioral needs, giving each pet the extra attention they deserve. I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide care every day of the week from 7am - to 7pm. I could come over for walks and play time through out the day I love spending quality time with all the pets I care for and want to make sure they are happy, fed, and get the attention needed.
“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. 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!!”
About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals. From sugar gliders to snakes, cats to dogs, if it wiggles, waddles, slithers, or snoozes, I love it! I’ll treat your fur baby like family and make sure they get spoiled :) I am very flexible and would love the opportunity to care for your pet. Whether it’s early morning, late evenings, or weekends, I would love to help care for your pet. I would be available to drop in for pet sitting, walks, and cat care. Whether it is multiple times a day or only once, I am very flexible.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Leander is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Leander
We had a great experience with Melaney! She took wonderful care of our three cats, whose ages range from 7 to 19 years old. One of the things we appreciated most was her communication. She sent us updates and pictures during each visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Seeing our cats happy and relaxed made it much easier to enjoy our trip. We came home knowing they had been well cared for, and we’re very grateful for the time and attention she gave them. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Melaney again and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and communicative pet sitter.
Suzanna was great. 10 outta 10 recommend. I have a senior cat who's a bit fussy with new people and Suzanna handled her like a pro. She keep communication open and gave regular updates. She even took my trash cans out (without me asking). I will definitely use again.
Our experience with Madyson was great! We are new to the area so it can be a little nerve racking leaving your pets with someone new. Madyson was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures and updates! Would recommend and be happy to rebook in the future!
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!
Kayla has been reliable and we love the photos she sent of our Skitty. She was very communicative—letting us know when she arrived, bringing in a package for us, and responding promptly to all of my messages. Her daughter also clearly knows how to meet animals for the first time—she stayed still and let Skitty approach and sniff her hand. For a 4-year-old, that really impressed us and seemed to help Skitty feel comfortable. It was reassuring to know Skitty was in such capable and trustworthy hands

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Leander on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,696 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Leander. 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.

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.
