“Abey has been so good with our animals. It is great to have peace of mind knowing they are in good hands when we are not able to be around. She has even won over our very timid cat. She communicates well and has been flexible when we need. The photos and visit summary at the end of each visit make my day!”
“Rianna is so sweet with my pups. While they are very low maintenance, she goes out of her way to be super sweet and patient with them. 2 big thumbs up and I will continue to book her for my daily dog needs.”
“Emily is absolutely amazing. We have four cats. Emily was very attentive on who got fed what and where and made sure everyone was happy and doing well when we were on our trip. Emily is very responsive, responsible and kind. Our cats warmed up to her right away! Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a sitter.”

About: I have over 2 years experience caring for dogs. I understand canine behavior, understand basic training involving reinforcing basic obedience and house rules, patient and calm especially with anxious dogs, able to walk and play with dogs, quick thinking in unexpected situations, excellent communicator with owners, flexible, knowledge of pet laws, and detail oriented when it comes to dietary restrictions and activities. I currently am looking to change fields of work. Dogs have always been a passion of mine and want to do more hands on work with them. I live with my husband and Golden Retriever currently in an apartment. We go for multiple walks a day, socialize with people and other pets through play dates and normal social interactions. We have dedicated mental simulation time which involves training exercises and puzzles. We end our days with lots of cuddles and love. For my clients I am a firm believer of not just walking your dog but socializing with them and ensuring they receive the mental stimulation they need.
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I've cared for my family's dog whenever they're out of town. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and attentive, and as a nursing student with healthcare experience and have previously worked in the criminal justice field for many years, I take responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide loving care, regular updates, and treat your pets like they're part of my own family. Caring for pets fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I'm currently in nursing school and only work one day a week, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of availability for drop-in visits and dog walks. I enjoy spending time with animals and understand the importance of keeping them on their normal routine. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I'm committed to giving every pet the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding instructions, provide fresh water, walks or playtime, clean up after them, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I also respect my clients' homes by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet owners peace of mind that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: Growing up in a neighborhood with tons of dogs, while also being the youngest kid on the block, all dog-watching duties fell in my lap. From start to finish, I've been responsible for caring not just for my neighbors pups while on vacation, but also for my families senior dogs (15-18yr old). I have experience with pill crushing, wet food handling, and being extra cautious & contentious of their special needs. I also have years of experience with cats & kittens. I am a cat mom to two long haired kitties, Kane & Walter. I am a business owner (Realtor) so I create my own schedule! I have the flexibility of caring for your animals when you need it. A mid-day walk is no problem for my schedule. Because I have extensive experience being in peoples homes (being a Realtor) , i know the care & thoughtfulness needed to be in someones personal space. I leave each home as I found it. Im extremely mindful of this, as our homes are our sacred space, and can feel strange having a stranger in it. I lead with integrity, and feel very strongly about caring for your most precious family member, and your home!
About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and truly treat every pet like my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to check in, feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re at work or away on vacation. I’m a mom of two who works from home, which allows me to have a flexible and reliable schedule. I’m available for pet care between 8:00am–2:30pm and again from 4:00pm–8:00pm most days. Because I’m home based, I’m able to consistently show up on time, provide dependable care, and give your pets the attention they need during the day while you’re at work or away. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I always treat any pet with respect, care, and attention to detail. I follow all instructions closely, keep doors secured, and make sure your pet stays safe and comfortable at all times. I’m very attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether that means giving them space or extra attention. I also provide updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for just like they would with you 🫶🏻
“This was my first time leaving my cats with a sitter and I'm so glad I found Holli! She's friendly, reliable, responds quickly and provides regular updates, and overall took great care of them, including giving meds and playing hide and seek to check on the shy ones. Highly recommend!”
“Brandi is amazing cat sitter, our cats love her. When we came back after long trip, I feel like both of my cats didn’t feel we were gone at all. Thanks to her again. Definitely ask her to check our cats again in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 845 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lyons. 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.
