“Leah provided top notch flexible and affordable care for our three boys. With a changing work schedule and one of us out of town we needed someone who would be willing to look after and spend time with our boys and was ok with changes to the agreeded upon schedule. Leah was caring and responsive throughout the week and made a very turbulent five days run much smoother than expected.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our doggos while we were gone for the day! I know they loved having the company! Especially for feeding them, since we didn't get home until after 8pm! 😆”
“Erica showed up for every scheduled drop in. She also communicated to confirm each drop in including pics. It was evident from the lics the dogs loved her and she loved them back. It was consoling to me that my beloved person were well taken care of when I couldn't be there. I would definitely use Erika again.”
“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!!!”
“I had to find another sitter again, which is always tough with finding one I can trust but my dog was in good hands with Sherron (pronounced like "sure-ron" I believe)! She's friendly, attentive to details/instructions, and punctual. I could tell she was very well loved and taken care of while were gone and provided photo updates to ease our anxiety. Highly recommend!”
“Melissa was our dog sitter for the weekend. She was quick to respond in communication, Sending us pictures of the dogs while we were gone. Making me feel very reassured. I highly recommend Melissa and she will be kept in our list of people to call. Thank you Melissa”
“Yung-Chu C was absolutely wonderful to work with and took excellent care of our tiny tortie cat, iO. She followed all the instructions and was communicative and friendly. The daily pictures of iO were super adorable and appreciated. Yung-Chu C. is awesome and the whole experience set us at ease to see how comfortable iO was with her while we were away. We will definitely hire her again when we need to travel!”
“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!”
“Mady was so great! I booked her last minute and she was so kind and took the time to go over my kitties needs and assured me that she would take great care of kitties. My kitties really ended up liking Mady and all the attention she gave them. Thank you so much for all of your help and for the great communication.”
“My dogs loved having Suzanna visit! She look her time with each of them to provide the kind of attention they would like best. Her communication after each visit was superb and included lots of pictures! We can’t wait to have Suzanna again!”
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 have a yard with a fence and a fur baby of my own who would enjoy keeping your pet company. Can only accept house trained pets
“Karen is fantastic with my kiddos! They’re super reliable, kind, accommodating and always make sure my dog is happy and well cared for. I love getting updates and seeing how much fun they are having. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and loving to help with your pet, Karen is the best!”
“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.

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

Frequently asked questions about Rover
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.
