“Josh was a life saver for us! We just moved to California and needed someone we could trust to watch our cat and he was exactly what we were looking for! He was so helpful to us, allowing us to still be able to travel and do what we need to do and know that our cat has a friend to look after them while we are away. So grateful for Josh, he is a must book, you won’t regret it!”

“From our very first meet & greet, we could tell our pups Cooper and Casey were in good hands. Stephanie was warm and easygoing, and our dogs took to her right away. For our drop-ins, Stephanie arrived promptly and followed our care instructions closely. Both pups enjoyed a lively game of fetch with her and received the bio-break they needed. When she headed out, the house was locked up securely and the pups were happy. Stephanie sent great photos of Cooper and Casey during her visit, which made our day and gave us complete peace of mind. Having a local sitter with a flexible schedule is a real gift. We'll be booking her again when we need care.”

About: With years of experience caring for friends' and neighbors' dogs, I've developed a natural connection with pets. Growing up surrounded by both cats and dogs, I understand their unique needs and personalities. My lifelong passion for animals, combined with my hands-on experience, ensures your furry friend will receive the best care possible. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I provide a loving and trustworthy environment for your pet. Pet care fits well into my current routine, as I’m looking for part-time work and have availability Wednesday through Saturday, primarily in the afternoons and evenings. This schedule allows me to plan my time around the needs of the pets in my care and provide attentive, dependable service during those hours. Starting in mid-November, I’ll have even more flexibility in my schedule, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of pet care needs. My goal is to make sure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve! I provide pet care in the comfort of your home, as I currently do not have the space to care for pets in my own. I follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, cleanings, and walks, to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to offer a stress-free experience by maintaining consistency and offering personalized care while you’re away.

“Belinda is our new go-to cat sitter! She was communicative throughout the entire stay, and took great care of our two babies like they were her own, even our more difficult cat who requires oral medication. We can’t wait for Belinda to watch them again for a longer stay in a couple of weeks 😊”

“We have had Jewels twice now as drop-in sitter for our Bella (cat) and both times Jewels has cared for Bella perfectly. The food, water and litter is handled with care and excellent hygiene. Bella is so picky with sitters and has popped out to interact with Jewels a few times. We see that as a super positive sign that Jewels has a kind energy. Cats don't hide their feelings so if Bella likes Jewels, she is a winner in our book. Highly recommend.”

About: I am kind and loving and gentle but firm when needed. Years of experience raising various pets and kids. What you out in is what you get out when it comes to your pets I’m home other than running and hiking and being a mom taxi. I have a lot of free time during the week. I attend hikes on so long runs on Saturday mornings and I attend church on Sunday mornings and serve in kids ministry I currently have a beloved cat, so I do not offer boarding in my own home. I provide care in the client’s home where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow feeding, medication, exercise, and routine instructions.

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, so I'm naturally comfortable with their everyday needs. I've sat informally for neighbors before and I'm happy to walk dogs as well as care for them at home. I may be newer to formal sitting, but I bring patience, attentiveness, and a lifetime of comfort and experience with dogs. I currently go to school Monday through Fridays in the morning but I have free afternoons and weekend! I am not available for boarding but am more than happy to take care of a home as well as some adorable animals! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for a pet. Since I offer care in the client's home, I follow your routine closely, feeding schedules, medication if needed, and any house rules you have. I double-check that doors and gates are secure so pets can't get out, and I stay attentive and present during the time I'm there, whether that's a visit, a walk, or overnight care in your home. I treat every pet with the same calm, genuine attention I'd want for my own, and I'm always happy to check in with updates so you have peace of mind while you're away.

About: Hi, I’m Aaliyah! I have loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets taught me very early on that every animal has a unique personality and specific needs. I know how important it is to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away. Because I currently work part-time, my schedule is incredibly flexible! This means I have plenty of open daytime hours, flexible breaks, and open days to dedicate entirely to your pups and pets! I strictly follow familiar daily routines, maintain open communication with regular photo updates, and treat the client's home with the utmost cleanliness and respect so everyone feels completely at ease! :)

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I’m highly sensitive to animals & their needs. I have a lot of patience to care for an animal no matter their age. I’m currently working full-time, however I am off at 6pm and available to work evenings or overnights. I’m available to work all day on Sundays and mondays.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lilac is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $18 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 3,784 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lilac. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 , 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.
