“Amazing with the dogs, one of which is a rescue that is super shy with people. Accommodated last minute requests, great communication. Will definitely have her sit for us again.”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs for most of my life and caring for animals is something I truly love. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering medications, supporting mobility challenges, and providing a calm, patient environment. I know how important consistency and gentle care are, especially for pets who need a little extra attention. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved every step of the way. I currently have cats of my own but they are used to other pets in the home, including dogs. Additionally, I offer complimentary meet and greets prior to petting your pet, to see if it’s a good fit. I work from home and my schedule is flexible, so I’m able to interact with and love on your fur baby all day. I can also pick up and drop off your little one if need be. I do have a few cats of my own, so if you have a kitty needing care, it may be best for me to care for them in their own environment. My cats are used to other pets though, including dogs, so they are more than welcome in my home. I also have a fenced-in yard with a lot of room for your dog to run around and live in a neighborhood conducive to walks.
About: Hello! Welcome to my profile! :) My name is Yari, me and my husband are both Army veterans who just moved to the area. We are so happy to be here. I’ve taken care of puppies to elderly dogs like (Nacho the pug) for all of his life (all of 16 years) and my Luna for 13 years. I have over 15 years of dog sit/ in-home check-in experience for multiple families. I am kind, gentle and patient with every animal I care for. I work from home, so I will definitely have a lot of time for your furbabies! I am available for house sitting/ doggy day care/walks mostly anytime of any day. I am mostly free to do check ins for your pups in-home depending on what and when you’d prefer. I have 2 friendly furbabies (Luna the yorkie and Fang the Bluey) to keep your pups company. I can crate your pup or they can stretch their legs throughout the house.
“Stacey was excellent in every aspect during her drop in visits with our three dogs and cats. She kept a very close eye on a skin irritation that had developed on one our dogs and she updated us with pics daily. She was truly concerned with the health of our pets. We could not recommend her more. She is fantastic.”
About: I grew up with high-energy large hunting dogs. My own dog passed away this past Fall, but I love to give affection and care to other’s furry friends. Whether your dog needs to be walked 10 miles a day or is just a couch potato, I’ve got you covered! I currently work part time as a Tax Preparer and rarely have shifts for more than 4 hrs. Please let me know your dog’s needs and I’ll be happy to discuss the dates you are requesting! Lots of love for your furry friend, I’m great at keeping a schedule, and keeping all house rules/cleanliness. Ask me anything, I’m happy to accommodate!
About: From growing up with my childhood dog, and multiple dogs at my grandmothers house, I’ve had experience with dogs since a very young age. I currently have three sweethearts. An American cocker spaniel, a rescue pup, and a rescue kitten. I have watched countless friends dogs and cats as well, and will never say no. I’m absolutely in love with any and all kinds of animals. Your babies will be treated just like mine! Just like family🩷! I currently am self employed and pick my own schedule. I usually work early am around 3 am to around 8 am. My evening shifts are around 3-4 hours long as well. My schedule is always available to be changed for your pet needs. All care instructions will be followed. Pets are also allowed on the furniture, and crates are also available. Daily play and walks are also provided
About: Hi! My name is Risa! I had a Labrador growing up, she was sweet and rambunctious. During Covid, I fostered a malnourished dog until he went to his forever home! Currently, I’m dog walking full time! I’ve fostered dogs before, but don’t have any pets currently. I’m available for pet sitting and dog walking every day! I love hiking and walking, so can happily take dogs for long walks. I want to have a great time hanging out with your furry friends
“Rebekah was absolutely amazing! Her communication was fantastic, she really took care of my babies like they were her own! I recommend booking her, you won’t be disappointed! I will be booking her in the future!”
“Absolutely amazing. I had so much peace of mind thanks to Sydney, and my cats seemed quite happy with her too! Plenty of pat pats given, playing some, and clean food/water/box. Will definitely be contacting her again for future pet sitting.”
About: I have grown up taking care of cats and dogs, and have a personal interest in animal behavior! In the middle of my psychology undergraduate degree, I take my work and compassion very seriously. And as a mother of 3 fur babies, I can assure the upmost amount of care from my end! I have plenty of time for your pet(s)! I am available 5 days out of the week, and am committed to making sure every minute is worth it for them and you! I am able to transport your pet to cooler and comfortable locations they may enjoy, or always stay in your neighborhood! I also accommodate to different communication methods and requests for your comfortability.
“I can’t recommend her enough! We reached out at the last minute after another sitter failed to show up on time for our dog’s critical medication schedule. Our dog, Melo, has severe epilepsy, so his medication timing is extremely important. On top of that, I had several delays on my end while trying to finalize everything, and she was incredibly patient, understanding, and kind throughout the entire process. She never made me feel rushed or like I was inconveniencing her, which I appreciated more than she probably knows. She arrived earlier than when she said she would, gave Melo his medication on time, and even stayed for slightly over 30 minutes instead of just giving meds and leaving. That extra care and compassion meant so much to us and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She truly saved us in a stressful situation. If you need someone dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy-especially if your pet has medical needs- I would recommend her without hesitation. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again.”
About: I was raised on a farm, giving me lifelong experience caring for animals of all kinds. I also foster and adopt pets, and I treat every animal like family. I provide dependable, loving care and understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and plenty of affection while you’re away. I work remotely weekdays until 2:00 PM, so I’m available most afternoons and evenings for pet care. During the school year, I’m also available for morning visits after 8:00 AM. I have two young children who often accompany me on errands, so I’m best suited for friendly, child-comfortable pets. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard, pet-friendly dogs, cats, and children, and I’m responsible, reliable, respectful of your home, privacy, and your pet’s unique needs.
“Melinda did a fantastic job for taking care of my sick fur puppy. I felt comfortable and at ease with Melinda looking after Coco and she kept me updated with photos every visit. Would happily have her look after CoCo again. I would highly recommend Melinda.”
About: I have a Shih Tzu named Coco, and I’ve always loved animals of all sizes. Growing up around pets has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and caring. I also babysit often, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility and reliability. I enjoy keeping pets active, safe, and happy while making sure they feel comfortable and loved in my care. I love doing things that get me out of my normal routine and taking care of animals is something I have always loved doing! Can’t wait to meet you! I always make sure to give everyone their space when needed and cuddles when needed as well! It’s important to know when to do what :)
About: I take the time to understand their unique personalities, routines, and any specific needs they may have. Additionally, my commitment to communication (and picture-taking skills!) ensures that pet owners receive regular updates and peace of mind while they’re away. I work remotely, so I am able to prioritize flexible hours to accommodate pet needs, ensuring I can provide consistent care and attention. Each day includes time for walks, play, and feeding, while also allowing for regular updates to pet owners. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment tailored to the pet's needs, with designated areas for sleeping, eating, and play. For clients' homes, I maintain their routines, following specific feeding and exercise schedules while ensuring the space is clean and secure. I prioritize regular check-ins, exercise, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and engaged.

Kristina was the perfect person to attend to my furry kitties. I think, I am sure she spoiled them for I now have to engage with them more than before. I was hesitant to have someone come to my home but Kristina proofed to be the perfect person. I would highly recommend her and yes she will be my go to person for any of my furry kids. Thank you Kristina for giving me a peace of mind while I was away. You are a gem and a blessing to our family.
I cannot recommend Katy enough! She went above and beyond while caring for my cat, Frida, who is still adjusting after our recent move. Contractors showed up unexpectedly during the week, and she thoughtfully asked if they’d be back so she could plan her visits around them; just to help minimize stress for Frida. That level of care and consideration meant so much. Her visit reports were incredibly thorough. She detailed every litter box scoop (including type), and when Frida got into human food in the pantry, she not only took photos but also made sure the food was secured so it wouldn’t happen again. At one point we thought our auto feeder had failed, and she troubleshot it until she confirmed it was working properly. Frida, who is usually shy, warmed up to her instantly and showered her with affection at every visit. It was clear she has a natural gift with cats; she truly is the cat lady of Lockhart. I’d be thrilled to book her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. If you want someone who treats your pet like their own and gives you total peace of mind, she’s the one!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lockhart on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,994 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lockhart. 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.
