“Bena was super reliable and checked in frequently with us. We did a meet and greet prior to her stay and I felt very comfortable having her in our home. Unfortunately our cat is much more shyer than I expected and hid the whole time :( . Bena reassured us that although she was hiding, that she was eating well and her litter box was being cleaned. Bena was flexible with our booking and was able to add a few more drop-ins for us last minute. I would 100% use her again in the future.”
About: *listed experience is for dogs, as cats seem to have their own experience area* I love dogs, cats, (guinea pigs, bunnies, and hedgehogs too—though I don't think that's an option here). I grew up with 3 cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies, and chickens. I have lived with cats and small dogs multiple times (housemates), and I have petsitted for friends and neighbors throughout my life. I have limited experience with walking dogs (I grew up with cats) but have loads of previous and current experience playing with dogs (family and friends). In college I walked and played with greyhounds at a rescue for racing greyhounds, and I also worked for a little bit at an animal shelter. I'd like to use this opportunity to figure out which type of dog I'd like to adopt someday. For now, as a new sitter on here, I'd be most comfortable doing drop in and play visits with cats and dogs of all sizes, and walking dogs of medium size or less. I've been told I have a calm energy when meeting animals, and the three dogs my friends currently own seem to gravitate towards me. I also like playing tug, throwing sticks, and having a lap dog come to me for rubs. I work at a school and have off in the summer. I have a flexible schedule in the summer aside from a few small trips. My plan is to update my schedule frequently to keep up with my availability. When I am back at work, I will have to revamp my schedule. As for right now, I would prefer to go to the pet's home, as mine is not currently pet appropriate (plants and size). If I come to know a cat and owner well, I would adjust and put the plants in a closed room so the kitty could safely roam the rest of the house. At a pet's house, I would love a run down of their favorite toys, when treats are allowed to be given, etc. I love taking photos already, so would absolutely love to photograph your dog or cat being cute and fun, and send those as an update.
About: Hello my name is Nieves, I have been a devoted animal lover my whole life! I enjoy spending time with animals, and lived with my own beloved dog Roscoe Burgers, until he passed in the fall. I believe every animal is unique and special, and worth getting to know. I am looking to spend time with your furry loved ones, be it going on a walk, or give you complete peace of mind while you are away from home. I am a true animal lover, and can't wait to meet you and your little sweetums. I work from home 3 of the 5 days I work, and enjoy going on walks in the immediate area. I walk before I got to work, on my lunch break, and after work. This is a habit I developed with my beloved pooch, and would be happy to continue with your pup on the leash. I also am happy to provide check-ins, or stays as your pet sitting needs ebb and flow. I am pretty structured, and can stick to the plan, or instructions that you lay out for me. My own dog was sick for almost 2 years near the end of his life, so I am familiar with administering medications, and needing to stick to a stricter timeline as needed. I also enjoy collaging on my phone, and would love to give you picturesque updates of your sweet pal(s).
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in elementary school. I would pet sit for friends and neighbors, along with work at vets office for a few years in college. I currently have a black lab named York with my partner. I work an 8-4 job Monday thru Friday, so I am available for early morning, afternoon, and evening check ins. Along with overnights and weekend availability. My focus is to treat your pet like they are my own. Which means good play time and making sure they get their meals on time. I am able to do walks, handle administration of medications, dietary requirements.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life! From being raised with dogs and parakeets, to later expanding my personal knowledge to cats, rabbits, rats, and more, I understand that each pet is as unique as their owner and deserves to have their needs met. Patience and compassion are my keystones to pet care. My experience includes basic grooming, teeth brushing, utilizing a pill-popper tool/giving oral medication, spicy cat maintenance (trust me, I have my own), grumpy dogs, walking, play motivation, anxious pets, and verbal affirmations. Growing up, I trained two of my dogs from puppyhood, as well as converting a feral adult cat to basic training behaviors such as "stay” and even “paw!” I am an extremely quick study and am happy to cater to your pets' specific needs! I currently work 40 hours a week from about 8am-4:30pm, but have plenty of afternoon flexibility and full weekend availability! I am available on Saturdays and Sundays during the day for house/pet sitting, as well as Fridays after 5pm. This care is as tailored as you would like it to be! Based on your preferences and your animal's personality, I am happy to adapt to your family's needs. I can crate your dog, groom your cat, spend time with them in close or far proximity, add meal toppers to their dinners, you name it! Each pet is unique and I want you to feel as comfortable as possible while entrusting them with me.
About: I have been a dog walker and pet sitter since I was very young. I enjoy walking dogs and spending time with people’s pets. I have had cats my whole life and enjoy the company of animals and have experience with pets with health issues that need special consideration. I am available all week and weekends for daily walks and care taking. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to work around you and your pet’s needs I will be happy to care for pets in clients homes, and as a new home owner myself I understand how important it is to respect a home and care for it well :)
“Brendon took great care of my two cats while I was out of town for the week! He followed all of the care instructions exactly as I wrote them and always sent an update regarding anything I may need to know. I really appreciated the attention to detail and how communicative he was! Would absolutely use him as a pet sitter again in the future! :)”
“Jessica took such great care of our precious girl during our 10 day trip! This was the longest trip we've ever taken and Jessica's thoughtful communication and updates provided much relief to my cat-mom anxiety! We will be booking with Jessica in the future :)”
About: Hi, fellow animal lovers. I have years of hands-on experience working with animals of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and temperaments. With a background in veterinary medicine and animal rescue, caring for animals has always been more than a job to me, it’s something I genuinely love. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, including shy, anxious, energetic, and more challenging animals. I also have experience administering medications and understand the importance of following care instructions carefully to keep your pets safe and comfortable. I’m Fear Free Certified, which means I value reducing fear, anxiety, and stress while creating a positive experience for every pet. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your furry companion needs extra patience, medication, playtime, walks, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to provide personalized care and attention. I know pets are family, and I don’t take the trust you place in me lightly. You can expect compassionate care, reliability, and updates to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your companions! Animal care is already a big part of my daily life! As a veterinary tech, caring for animals is something I’m passionate about both professionally and personally. I prioritize making time for each pet’s individual needs, whether that means feeding, playtime, walks, companionship, or administering medications. I’m organized, attentive, and understand the importance of maintaining pets’ normal routines to help them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I strive to provide reliable, compassionate care and treat every pet as if they were my own. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I can assist with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, companionship, and medication administration as needed. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and prioritize patience, safety, and low-stress handling. I also provide updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets’ comfort and well-being are always my priority.
“Sloane took excellent care of our cat Sammy. She took her time to find out about his routine and cared about his well being. She sent us regular updates with pictures/videos of him which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her.”
About: I'm available for all holidays starting with Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza and New Year's Eve I'm a lifetime pet owner and pet sitter with strong references 🙏 I'm not employed by anyone else, so my time is wide open and I live on a quiet dead end street and close to regular parks and dog parks / trails. I always take the owners preferences seriously, but I do like to spoil with good food and treats. I also am good with grooming calmingly.
“Lily was extremely helpful when my previously booked sitter cancelled at the last minute. She was friendly and able to respect our home's dietary restrictions. She was a lifesaver! My senior car was cared for, and the house was in order upon our return. Lily provided occassional updates on how things were going and a few photos. She always responded quickly to messages despite a time difference. We'd be open to hiring Lily again.”
“Trista was wonderful! She sent great pictures of all the pets. They all look so happy and well cared for. Great communication and followed all instructions. You can tell she really cares for your pets. We would highly recommend! 😊”
About: early years, my family were training Morgans for the Kentucky Derby. It had been an exhilarating journey, one that beautifully intertwined skill, patience, and a profound bond with these majestic horses. Each horse is unique, deserving of personalized training that not only harnesses their incredible speed and agility but also fosters a deep connection between horse and trainer. As l've grown, my focus has shifted from merely training to cherishing those heartfelt connections, as they truly enrich my life. Alongside my passion for equine training, I find immense joy in the companionship of dogs and cats, nurturing their spirits It’s all I do - besides writing. I chose to step Away from The chaos of the world to care for my own well being by taking care of animals. With respect, kindness and love as I would expect in my own home and with my own pets. Pets bring joy and peace to my life.
About: Hi all! I’ve been pet-sitting since very young (age 10), having experience with various dog breeds and sizes as well as cats. Feel free to reach out so we can connect! I currently work per diem, so I have plenty of free time to care for little ones. I tend to have open availability, even for last minute requests! I am very open and able to follow any requests concerning your little ones. I understand that every pet is different when it comes to their needs, so I am very accommodating and willing to learn how to best care for your baby!

Sharene is wonderful and patient with my shy cats. She understands how to give them space so they are comfortable while also trying to get them to engage and come out of their shells, and is making progress! She sends lovely detailed updates and lots of cute photos. You can tell she truly cares about the pets in her charge. Her visits are great for both my piece of mind and their confidence and socialization. I'm so happy they're learning to trust another person and making a new friend.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Leeds is $14 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $16 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 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.
