“Daniel recently provided drop-in visits for our daughter's cat Milo while we were on a family hiking trip. His pics of Milo showed how happy Milo was to see him, and when we returned home it was obvious Milo was much more at ease compared to other times we were away. We've also had Daniel pet sit for our dogs in the past, and he really creates a fast bond with them. We're so thankful to have someone as reliable and attentive as Daniel to care for our pets!”
“Becca did a great job checking in on our cat Milo. She was super responsive, easy to work with, and sent cute pics of our cat while we were out of town over the holidays. Thank you Becca, we will definitely be reaching out for our future cat sitting needs!”
“I cannot recommend Kylie enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly proactive and communicative, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. Cleopatra usually takes a little time to warm up to new people, but she gave Kylie the ultimate “belly of trust” upon meeting her, which told me everything I needed to know! My household has gone through a lot of changes this year, so it was especially important to me that Cleopatra had not only her basic needs taken care of, but also the attention, interaction, and affection she needed while I was away. I felt completely confident that she was in great hands. Kylie took the time to thoroughly read through all of my instructions, kept me updated, and was incredibly attentive. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty, a beautifully taken-care-of home, and somehow my house even smelled amazing! Having someone you can genuinely trust with both your pet and your home is invaluable. I’m so grateful for the care Kylie gave Cleopatra and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, dependable, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life, growing up I was always the one to help with all the animals. Started with the neighbors dogs, then I would ride my bike to a house in the neighborhood and look after their two dogs. Now I regularly cat sit for a coworker and am the go to whenever anyone needs help with pets. I have lots of experience with senior dogs, but am willing and able to take care of all ages and sizes. My job schedule is not the most consistent, but typically 9-5 on weekdays, but sometimes I’ll be done earlier or have a long break in the middle, but I always have lunch and I would be able to go back for a potty break then. And weekends are always different, but I would be gone for shorter periods of time. Walks would be in the evening during the week and then we could work out a time in the morning or evening on the weekends. More than happy to keep your baby company if you are out of town and take care of whatever they need. I’m also willing to stay over and house sit if that is needed, but can also just do visits if that’s preferred. If you’re in town, but in a busy phase of life I would be able to take your dog on long walks, do enrichment activities, or take them to a dog park.
“Nina did an outstanding job taking care of our bunny. She was very attentive and prompt with messages/updates. She made our first experience with Rover an excellent one, and we will definitely seek her help again in the future.”
“We hired Brendan to stay at our house for our week long trip to watch our Orange Tabby, Popsicle. We had a list of things we wanted him to do on a daily basis for Popsicle and he was diligent in following that list. We received a morning and evening photo and corresponding with Brendan was very easy. Brendan cares deeply for being on time and being responsible and was certainly a professional pet sitter for our cat who we love so much.”
“Suzanne was great with my cat and sent detailed updates after each visit. She was kind enough to come do a meet and greet beforehand as well. Would definitely book with her again!”
About: I grew up in a home full of pets, ranging from dogs and cats to rodents and reptiles, which only encouraged my love for animals. Over the last decade, that interest has lead me to pursue multiple paths in the pet care field. I have learned how to care for many types of animals, how to provide a safe and stress-free environment for pets, and how to keep an open line of communication with pet parents. The greatest takeaway, however, has been building a better understanding of animal behavior and how to interact with everyone at their own pace! At the moment, I am available for two drop-in visits per day, Monday through Sunday. I am unavailable at specific times certain days of the week. Those are: Tuesdays 9:30am-11:30am, Saturdays and Sundays (and some Fridays) 8am-10am Your pet's routine and comfort are my priorities! That leads me to focus on leash safety, home safety and security, and food/medication schedules. Regular communication is important to me, as it is the best way to ensure all needs are met.
About: Hello! i’ve had pets since 4 years old. I’m a cat owner and have dogs as well. I’ve helped family members/friends with drop ins for their dogs from time to time. I love animals and can handle small to large dogs as well as cats! I am currently working as a full time nanny. Mon-Fri 9-5 hours ish. I’d be willing to make drop ins before and after work. Weekends are free and flexible so i’d be happy to offer assistance on those days! I can assure you your pets will be safely taken care of in your home. Making sure they are given the correct food, medication, assistance, and are staying happy!
“We had Gwen sit our two dogs with periodic drop-in visits while we were away on vacation, and we couldn't be happier with the care she provided them! She really went above and beyond with their care, even taking the time to take one of our dogs to the vet for an appointment that had to be done during the time that we were away. It wasn't an ideal circumstance for us to have to ask a sitter to do such a thing, but Gwen had no problem going the extra mile for us, and it was incredibly helpful that she was able to do so. We couldn't be happier with the care Gwen was able to provide!”
About: I’ve never not had a pet in my house. From dogs to cats to hamsters to fish to rabbits to guinea pigs, I have taken care of them all. My own cat is the light of my life and I bring that same level of care when I watch other people’s pets. I work in office M,T,W,F from 8:30-4:30. I am remote on Thursdays. I have a lunch break everyday so I can do a lunch time potty break or check-in in addition to an after work walk/check-in/potty break/play time. I’m pretty available on weekends as well for walks and check-ins. I work remote on Thursdays so I can work from home with your fur baby. (I live with my sister who works remote so my kitty isn’t by herself) I can crate your dog if needed. I can check on them at lunch time on the days I work in office. I make sure to provide play time/stimulation/walks. I can also administer medicine if needed.
“Zachary did a great job with me and my cat. Zach’s communication was excellent, when I was looking for a carer and while I was out of town. I would happily hire him for pet care again.”
“Christina was the best! she took excellent care of our kiddos and even got our most sensitive cat to eat his meals (and take his meds!) without any issue! she sent us tons of photos, was super communicative, and super flexible. 10/10 recommend her for all your pet needs!!”
“Bethany was AWESOME! I could tell from her photos she was well engaged and attentive to both cats. I felt totally at ease knowing she was looking after them and we look forward to her next visit.”
“We can't recommend Lauren highly enough! She has taken care of our pets each year while we're on vacation, and every time, we come home to happy, healthy, and well-cared-for fur babies. Our cats absolutely adore her! Lauren goes above and beyond to ensure our pets are loved and cared for in our absence, and her updates always put our minds at ease. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Lauren is the one to call. We're so grateful for her kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals!”
“Alexa was beyond Amazing! Super responsive, sent lots of pictures and updates, and most importantly I could tell she genuinely enjoyed taking care of my dash! Definitely will book with her for every trip if she's available!”
“Taylor has taken care of my cat several times and always makes herself available even with super short notice. My boy is skittish but loves Taylor, she does great with him and is so much fun to hang around for both of us. We’re moving out of state and will miss Taylor very much!”

I’m really glad Anissa was available to watch my cats the following week. Doing two back-to-back trips was stressful, but I knew I was in good hands. We were able to work out some minor kinks in their care, and it made for a smoother visiting time! She was so good with Azula, and I got plenty of pictures (pictures of Mitski were occasionally included, as long as she was behind the washing machine). :)
Victoria did a wonderful job caring for my two cats while I was away! She was very communicative and easy to coordinate with! I appreciated the time she spent with them and loved the photos and check ins she provided. I would not hesitate to have Victoria watch my cats again! :)
We are so grateful for the exceptional care Lindsay provided, especially during a stressful time when our dog became ill. She went above and beyond to monitor him, keep us updated and make sure he was cared for and comfortable while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter during a difficult situation. I would highly recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.
Sarah took great care of our very shy Charley! He hid from her for the first few visits but they became huge playtime pals on visit #3 and thereafter. In addition to Charley’s fun and games, Sarah watered indoor and outdoor plants, filled our bird feeders and kept a close eye on our home. I just hope we can get Sarah again the next time we travel!
Ashley & Trinity are reliable and super communicative. They were very proactive when one of our cat litter box (automatic) stopped working. We are very thankful to have such reliable cat sitters like thyme that care to do a good job but that you can honestly feel they care for our kitties. They love them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Madeira is $26 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 394 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Madeira. 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.

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.
