“Did a great job with my cats, even Ziggy who is a bit more standoffish and gets upset when I am gone for too long. Also she did way more than I expected her to (even washing their bowls which I expected to have to clean when I got back)! Really fantastic job!”

“We had an amazing Rover experience with Jess - she went above and beyond, and we really can't recommend her highly enough! She took such amazing care of our cat. While boarding our senior cat Izzy with Jess, Izzy had a minor health concern after developing a UTI. Jess noticed her strange behavior immediately and reached out to provide some feedback to us. It was overnight that the behavior was observed, and Jess followed up first thing in the morning to update further. After determining that Izzy should see the vet, Jess brought her in and was in constant contact throughout the visit to help coordinate treatment. Thankfully, Izzy was able to receive some fluids and medication and perked right up afterwards, and Jess kept us updated over the next several days as medication was administered. Beyond an unexpected vet visit, Jess took exceptional care to prepare her home for an older cat and was very thorough in making sure she understood and could accommodate Izzy's daily routine. Izzy seemed to love all of the cozy spots she was able snooze in, and had no shortage of loving attention during her time boarding! Boarding with Jess was our first time with Rover and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. We would highly recommend Jess as a Rover, and would have her watch Izzy again in a heartbeat!”

“I left my cat with Subi for a month and a half while I was out of the country, and she was awesome! My cat and hers got along well, she was great with a minor medical issue that popped up, and she gave him so much love! She was also very communicative, professional, and good at sending pictures.”

About: I bring a strong foundation of trust, safety, and attentiveness from my background in law enforcement, along with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy, working breeds that require structure and engagement, to puppies needing patience and consistency, as well as older dogs who benefit from a calmer, attentive approach. I have experience with basic obedience reinforcement, leash handling, and reading canine behavior to ensure safe, positive interactions at all times. I’m also knowledgeable in pet safety and emergency awareness, with training that supports quick, calm decision-making if needed. As someone who prioritizes physical health and an active lifestyle, I enjoy providing dogs with the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need to stay happy and well-balanced. Whether your dog needs structured walks, playtime, or just reliable, loving care while you’re away, I’m confident and comfortable handling it all. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care throughout the day. I’m typically available from the early morning through the evening, with the most flexibility during daytime hours. Because my schedule is adaptable, I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine—whether that means an early-morning walk, a midday check-in, feeding, playtime, or evening care. I’m open to adjusting my availability when needed and working with owners to find a schedule that best fits their pets’ needs. My goal is to make pet care feel consistent, reliable, and stress-free for both you and your pet while you’re away. As a former law enforcement officer, safety, responsibility, and trust have always been at the heart of what I do. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving both your pet and your home in someone else’s care—and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. When caring for your pet, I treat your home with the same respect and attention to detail I would expect in my own. I’m mindful of doors, gates, alarms, keys, access points, and anything else that helps keep your home secure while you’re away. I’m also attentive to your pet’s surroundings and routines to help prevent accidents, escapes, or anything that could put them at risk. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I take the time to understand their personality, routines, needs, and boundaries rather than treating every pet the same. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, needs extra patience, is shy around new people, or simply wants some companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. You can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is receiving attentive, dependable care—and that your home is being treated with the same level of respect and responsibility. I’m also happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout the visit so you never have to wonder how things are going. My goal is for you to feel confident and reassured from the moment you hand over the leash to the moment you walk back through your door.

About: Hi! I’m Cheyenne, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets while you’re away. I’ve spent several years working in veterinary medicine, where I’ve cared for animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. My experience has taught me how to recognize changes in behavior, administer medications when needed, and help pets feel comfortable and safe, even in unfamiliar situations. Pet care naturally fits into my weekly routine because caring for animals is already what I do every day. I work full-time in veterinary medicine, so my schedule revolves around the health and well-being of pets. Through Rover, I’m excited to spend even more time doing what I love by providing personalized care outside of the clinic. I’m available for visits on select workdays, especially before or after my shifts, and I have much greater flexibility on my days off. I’m available for visits on select workdays, especially before or after my shifts, and I have much greater flexibility on my days off for walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to provide reliable, compassionate care that fits seamlessly into their routine while giving you peace of mind.

About: I have experience grooming, clipping nails, cleaning litter boxes, filling food and water dishes, playing, taking them on walks (on and off a leash), giving meds, and administering IV fluids. I’m a full-time student and I attend all of my classes online. I volunteer Friday afternoons at CSHS, but I also do that remotely. Other than that my schedule is pretty open and I can be flexible. I’ll be handling drop-in visits and some house sits myself. But for longer stays or bookings a little farther from home, Dylan will be coming with me to help out. Between the two of us, your pets will get plenty of attention, company, and care while you’re away. I’ll keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as I possibly can, and I'll follow any/all instructions you leave for me. I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and taken care of, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away.

About: I have owned pets my entire life. I have had a wide range of different animals of different sizes. I have experience with reactive dogs and training them. I also help with my roommate who fosters dogs. I am a full-time law student, so school is my priority. I go to school in Minneapolis 5 days a week from 8 AM to 3 PM most days. After school, I typically reserve that time for studying, so I would love to be able to spend time with pets while I do that. I currently live with a roommate, so I cannot accommodate pets at my residence. Willing to come to wherever needed and be flexible with scheduling

“She did a wonderful job with my guinea pigs. She went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of when I was gone.

I have booked with Elizabeth twice now, and highly recommend her to take care of your babies. She is the first Rover sitter I have used and is an absolute delight! Her updates are thorough and make me feel so much more comfortable while I’m away. You can see she genuinely loves animals and I can trust that both my cat and home are in good hands.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Lexington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lexington is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $23 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,826 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lexington. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lexington. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
