About: I am new to Rover :)) I have taken care of dogs since high school. I graduated college in 2023 with a degree in Health Sciences. I am currently working as an aide at a physical therapy clinic, and looking to make extra money. I love pet sitting and caring for animals is one of my strong suits. I am always willing to accommodate you and your dogs needs and I will always care for them like they are my own! I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am a home body, so I am always at home and also have my mom and grandmom in the home to help if need be. In a clients home, I will leave it completely up to you, how I walk, feed, crate, etc. your dog. But I will always care for your dog as if they were my own! For pet sitting at my home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I usually walk the dogs on leashes around my yard or take them to the park by my house to walk them. I can crate them anywhere in the home if needed. I also have plenty of dog toys/crates/ dog accessories from my own dog.
“Shona did a wonderful job with her drop-in visits with my Cat. Her timing each day was consistent, my house was kept just as I left it, and she even made sure that my Chewy order made it inside; and got rid of the packing!! I would recommend Shona for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“Alicia is great! She was able to meet my pups and then do drop in visits on short again. My puppy is still a bit to handle and she did great with him! She sent pictures and an update after each visit. She’s reliable and responsible and I will definitely use her again!”
“Stephanie was great. We had a family emergency right before we left and were a little disorganized with instructions. Stefanie managed everything beautifully and took good care of Charlie.”
“Natalie was great with the cats and taking care of them while we were gone. There’s not too many people outside of family we trust taking care of our pets. Natalie made sure to administer Harley’s medicine as needed and took time to interact with them. Would highly recommend Natalie to anyone and would use her in the future”
About: I had a dog as a child. I have had dogs for over 35 years. They are great company and a great addition to any family. I am retired. My time would be totally devoted to spending time with your pet(s). I look forward to giving you the comfort that your pets are well-cared for while you are not home. My pets at home are pretty spoiled. They are not crated and we play inside and outside. Whatever the owners require is what I will do. Unfortunately, my most recent dog died of cancer. I miss her; but look forward to taking good care of other people’s pets.
“Thank you, Autumn, for taking wonderful care of Ashley, our tabby. We so appreciate your attentiveness to her and your willingness to pick up the mail and water plants. Ashley is super relaxed and happy and our plants thriving in spite of the heat. Looking forward to asking you to watch her in the future!”

Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to your pet's routine, we’ll treat them as if they were our own.

As a Special Educator (and dog owner), I am familiar with positive reinforcement and use it when walking dogs. Cassie has grown up taking care of her neighbors animals while they were on vacation and loves to spend time playing with them, sitting with them and getting their energy out.
“Meghan provided excellent care to my two kitties. She was very conscious about keeping the food dishes clean and keeping the litter box clean. She spent time with them , giiving some love and comfort. I have reserved Meghan for multiple trips during the next year.”
“I could never say enough about Delaney’s sense of responsibility, care for Bailey and Dabby, and her great pet sitting work ethic. Jen and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!”

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors dogs and coworkers as well. Experience with walking them, administering medications, speciality feedings, house sitting and more. I’ve worked will all age ranges from puppies to seniors (including cats). I also love reptiles! Snakes, geckos, frogs, you name it. I’d love to be able to take care of your fur babies while you have a stress free vacation or trip.

I love doing a “meet and greet prior to the booking so your pet is familiar with me before we spend time together.
About: I am an experienced dog and cat caregiver with two German Shepherds and a cat of my own, so I am very comfortable handling both large and small animals. I am confident and strong enough to walk big, energetic dogs while also being patient and gentle with more sensitive pets. I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and well cared for during walks and drop-in visits. I am reliable, attentive, and always treat every pet like my own. I am generally available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends, and I can be flexible depending on the specific time and request. I am open to both regular and occasional bookings, including morning, afternoon, and evening visits when needed. I do my best to respond quickly and accommodate last-minute requests when my schedule allows. My goal is to provide consistent and reliable care that fits smoothly into both your schedule and your pet’s routine. I provide attentive, safe, and calm care in my client’s home, always following the pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable. I make sure they have fresh water, food if needed, clean space, and plenty of attention and companionship. During visits and walks, I prioritize safety by keeping pets leashed, avoiding unsafe interactions, and staying aware of their behavior and surroundings. I treat every pet with patience and care, and I always respect the home by keeping it clean and secure when I leave.
“Very responsive and sent me a picture. Great walker! Zoë was great when I came back despite the long day in the crate for her and only one walk. He didn’t mind that she had a broken toe and cone of shame.”

Autumn is a responsible fantastic pet sitter. While heavy snow was predicted, Autumn ensured my cat had plenty of food and water in case she was unable to visit. She even let the faucets drip in case we lost power. I look forward to having her take care of Sadie in future.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Mainland on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
