“Ariel did a wonderful job taking care of my kitties for a long weekend!! I always have peace of mind knowing they will get all of their needs met even while I’m away. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Kelli was phenomenal!! She really went the extra mile for my fur babies. She sent plenty of pictures and detailed updates, and my cats loved her. They don’t come out and greet just anyone, but they came out to see her every time she was here. While I was out of the country on vacation, my power went out and Kelli did everything she could to help me get that resolved. It means a lot to know that not only were my cats taken care of and happy, but I could truly rely on Kelli while I was away! I will definitely book with her again :)”
“Dina was fantastic! She gave me the peace of mind that I needed to enjoy my trip. I looked forward to each update, and I knew that my cats were in good hands with her.”
“Catherine is wonderful! She always captures the most precious pictures of my animals, they LOVE seeing her, and I feel at ease knowing that she’s the one taking excellent care of them! Couldn’t ask for a better caregiver!”
“Couldn’t be happier with the care jacob gave my two kitties! My Leroy was recently diagnosed with diabetes and having jacob there to take care of his insulin doses while I was away made me feel so much better !”
“The best!!!! So kind and friendly! She was amazing to my girl and I’ve already rebooked her for another trip. She was referred from a friend who loves her as much as we did!”
“Sarah was again amazing with our kitties! I loved how we could tell how more comfortable they were with having her around again which really helped set our minds at ease. She charmed and cared wonderfully for both of our sweet babies!!”
“Layla did a great job with my cats! She was responsive and sent plenty of updates. I will definitely have her check in on my cats again in the future!”
“Haley is a great cat sitter—reliable, caring, and attentive. We appreciated the updates and came home to happy, well-cared-for cats. Highly recommend!”
“I am so thankful I found Julie to care for my kitties! She is professional, experienced, communicates well, and responsive to the needs of her clients. Most importantly, she genuinely cares! If you are looking for a pet sitter who is reliable, experienced, and trustworthy, then Julie is the perfect candidate. I recommend her whole-heartedly and would give her 10 stars if I could! Thank you, Julie, for taking great care of my kitties!”
“Kara was amazing! Very responsive and sent lots of pictures of my cat while she did drop in visits. It helped my anxiety a lot with my first time using Rover!”
“Bree did such a great job looking after my little Karma! She looked happier and more at ease than she ever has compared to when I’ve come back from other trips and I think that says a lot about how she was taken care of. I loved all the daily photos with each check in as well. Thank you, Bree!”
“Sarah was awesome! Took great care of my cat, Professor Baby, and even put on his topical medication for me. Loved the pictures and updates she put on the Rover card.”
“Mary was a wonderful sitter, she allowed us to have an stress-free vacation & we are truly thankful. She was communicative, friendly, and provided us nice updates on our kitties. Hope to use Mary again in the future for our vacation needs”
“Lindsey took good care of our cats with drop-in visits while we were away! I could see from photos that my rather skittish cats were comfortable around her, which set my mind at ease. I will definitely hire her again!”
“Kaylee was wonderful to work with! On time and quick to tell me if she wouldn’t be. Professional in her communication and took her time to get to know my dog. She walked my dog and then stayed with her the full 30 minutes. Your pet will love her!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lexington
Bree provided fantastic care for our two kitties, including giving them medicines and following our directions perfectly. We received many adorable photos, and we returned to find two happy kitties. In addition, Bree took great care of our home. We highly recommend Bree!
Sara is always a blessing when I need her. She is always detailed and makes sure my senior cat is good. I’ve been worrying more about him lately as he continues to get older, but I don’t worry as much when she looks after him. She always is able to implement the new stuff I need to do for him as he gets older as well.
Ariel did an amazing job as always taking care of my 2 cats. I have used her multiple times for drop in visits while I am out of town. She does a great job at following instructions and communicating. Will definitely use her again when I need a sitter in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lexington on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Lexington. On Rover:
- 100% 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.
