“Lunah was a delight. She developed a wonderful bond with our senior cat and provided him with plenty of TLC while we were away for two weeks. Lunah stayed for the entire length of her daily contracted visit time, was very respectful of our home, and was an excellent communicator. I especially appreciated that while she followed our explicit instructions to a T; she also felt comfortable reaching out for clarification and/or to alert us if she noted something unusual. She did a wonderful job of maintaining our cat's food and litter area - which was very important to me after returning home from trips in the past to an unsanitary situation - ugh. Lunah also sent us a daily report with tons of photos so that we were able to relax knowing our kitty (and fish!) were in excellent hands. I heartily recommend Lunah to anyone in need of a competent, caring sitter.”

About: UPDATE: I will be moving in January of 2027 and will no longer be available to board pets in my home. I will miss your furry family members dearly! I grew up with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from yorkies to German shepards to Great Danes. I have kept my families dogs at my place while they are on vacation for at least a week. I have experience staying at the owners house to care for pets and also boarding pets in my own home. I’m an active person and a strength athlete, so if your pet is active and needs walks, we will both we getting in our steps together. Active by day, but definitely a couch potato by night! I’m a hybrid 9-5 employee and I work from home on Mondays and Fridays. Depending on my weekend availability, I can board pets in my home for one night or multiple night between Friday and Monday Agreeing to care for your pet means not only treating your pet with love and respect, but also understanding your needs and boundaries with your furry loved one. I will always ensure I understand instructions clearly to deliver the best service possible!

About: Hi there! I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I'm 28 years old and have spent my entire life caring for pets, from from raising playful puppies and kittens to supporting them through their senior years. That lifelong experience has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to both pets and their owners. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires a great deal of trust (from personal experience), so I make communication a priority. You can expect regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I'm happy to adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I'm patient with young pets who are still learning, gentle with senior pets who may need extra time and attention, and committed to treating every animal with the same love and respect I would give my own. I'm also preparing to move to London to begin graduate school in the fall as well, which means I have a flexible schedule over the next few months. I'm excited to use this time caring for pets, meeting wonderful families, and providing dependable, loving care whenever you need an extra helping hand. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and love and for you to feel completely confident that they're in good hands. Pet care is something I intentionally make time for in my schedule. Since I'm preparing to move to London for graduate school, I have a flexible routine over the next few months that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Whether your pet needs an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or evening companionship, I'm happy to work with your schedule. I believe consistency is important, so I'll do my best to maintain your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable, happy, and at ease while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I know that every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal schedule, so I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household routines. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I'll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and outdoor time, and always prioritize their safety. I also understand that every animal has different comfort levels, so I'll take the time to earn their trust and let them interact at their own pace. Communication is an important part of my care. I'll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention while you're away.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and I’m especially drawn to shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and enjoy earning an animal’s trust through kindness, affection, and consistency. I’m comfortable walking, bathing, brushing and grooming pets, and animals in my care are treated like family and welcome throughout my home. I’m also very comfortable with senior pets and understand that they may need a slower pace, extra attention, and lots of reassurance. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I love spending time with them, whether we’re walking, playing, relaxing together, or just keeping each other company. I’m happy to give each pet the time and attention they need and will follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I can he as active as you want me to be, including hiking, going to parks, anywhere you like! I can also stay at home if your dog has low energy or special needs. Pets are welcome throughout my home and are treated like part of the family. I especially enjoy caring for shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and give them the time and space they need to feel safe and learn to trust me. I’m comfortable walking dogs and helping with bathing and basic grooming, and I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, routines, and house rules. I do have a fenced yard and would never leave them alone.

“Alexis was amazing with our cat Monty while we were away. We so appreciated the care and attention she gave, as well as the daily updates after her check-ins. We could tell the moment we met her that she really does love animals, and we knew our little guy would get the same love and attention during visits that she gives to her own! She is kind, respectful, trustworthy, and a little bit hilarious (we seriously loved her commentary about our Monty’s antics on our Rover Cards). Already booked her for our next trip!”

About: I have taken care of and had pets my whole life. I’ve had small animals to large. I have 14 pets of my own at the moment from hermit crabs, a bird, bearded dragon, guinea pigs, cats and 3 dogs. I love animals. I currently own my own business so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to take care of your fur baby, so timing of day will never be an issue! I will watch your pets at all time so they don’t get into mischief. I as a pet owner know they can try to run off or eat something they can’t so constant supervision is a must.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. I currently have two golden retrievers and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I have experience watching both dogs and cats for others and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family — honestly, I like animals more than humans. I work full time, but I’m only a couple minutes from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to come home during the day when needed and can also work remotely at times, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and two friendly dogs to help keep your fur baby company if they enjoy socializing. I can easily crate your dog if needed and am comfortable caring for animals of all breeds and sizes. Pets are welcome on the furniture and bed because we believe they deserve to feel at home and loved while you’re away. My husband and I both have so much love to give, and we’re always happy to provide cuddles, attention, and companionship if your pet enjoys affection.

Russ and Janet took wonderful care of our two cats. They made daily visits to give them some social time along with feeding and litter box checks. They were even trusted enough by our shy girl for her to show herself to them, something she typically doesn’t do with people new to her. We will happily hire Russ and Janet again and fully recommend them to others!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Longmeadow

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Longmeadow is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 November 2026, there are 335 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Longmeadow. 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 Longmeadow. On Rover:

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