“We had reached out to Kirstin last minute and she could not have been nicer or more accommodating plus she was great with our silly boy, Mosley. She sent us updates and pictures each time she dropped in for a visit. Her communication regarding Mo was just what we needed to feel comfortable, that he was being well taken care of while we were away. Additionally, Kirstin was quick to respond to all of our messages (before, during and after our trip). We highly recommend Kirstins’ pet sitting services and look forward to booking with her again in the near future! Thanks Kirstin!🐾”


“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.”

About: 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.
“Amy was wonderful with Sylvester! He is usually slow to warm up to new people, but he was great with her the first time she came for our Meet & Greet. She followed all feeding directions perfectly and sent detailed report cards with great pictures and even a video. It was clear she spent time with him, playing with his toys and making sure he was all set between visits. I have a lot of business travel coming up this fall, and I'm so glad I found Amy as I am totally confident in the care she will provide for Sylvester. Rebooking her now for my next trip.”


About: Hi! I’ve grown up with pets all my life. Now that I’m an adult I have 5 cats and a dog. I’ve fostered (and foster failed) both cats and dogs over the years. I watch my friend’s pets here and at their homes as well. At my house I have a spare room that can be your animal’s home away from home if they need their own secluded space. I also have a fenced in yard with friendly neighbors who are also animal lovers. Come in the summer and I’ll send you home with some fresh veggies from my garden too! I get up early for work and make sure to leave plenty of time to feed, clean litter boxes and make sure all my four legged babies are ready for the day. Once home in the afternoon and after I lay down on the couch they all come to find me for love and to lay on me for all the pets. At night all are welcome to sleep with me, on the couch or wherever they are the most comfortable. I home almost all day over the weekends except for the morning time on Sundays. I have a fenced in yard so any dogs are able to go outside whenever they need to to play, pee or lay in the sun. I watch my neighbor’s dogs as needed and will go over every 4 or so hours to let them out over the weekends. During the week I let them out before I go to work and then as soon as I come home. I then let them out again before bed around 8pm. I also am able to let them out as needed when they are in a pinch and can’t get home in time. My cats and yours if they come for a stay will have water and toys available to them at all times. They will be fed twice a day with a snack of crunchies before bed. If you needed me to come to your house to take care of your cats and/or dogs, I would be able to come early in the morning, after work and before bed during the week and every 4-6 hours during the weekend. While at your house I can take animals for a walk, play, give pets and love, brush or whatever else is needed. Of course I’d feed them and clean kitty litter boxes or whatever else your babies need. I am good with giving medicine to cats and dogs. I give daily medication to my dog and have had to give cats medicine in the past.
“Brooke was fantastic! Went above and beyond during her visits with our pup and was super communicative the whole time. Will definitely reach out again. Thanks Brooke!”

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

Eric is a Special Education teacher and is familiar with positive reinforcement and use it when walking dogs.

“Meghan was amazing! Reliable, caring, and very attentive. She made sure everything was taken care of and gave our cats great company while we were away. We came home to happy cats and a clean space. Highly recommend her!”

“Autumn was the best! Very reliable and provided updates with photos. I will definitely be requesting Autumn in the future! I felt so at ease being miles away from home. Thank you Autumn!”

“Delaney was amazing! Even came prior to our scheduled drop-ins to do a meet and greet. Took great care of our babies and was very respectful of our home. Will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you Delaney!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life and have owned five dogs over the years. I have experience with Chihuahuas, Pit Bulls, Dachshunds, Terriers, and Chiweenies. Having cared for dogs throughout my life, I understand how to properly care for our four-legged companions and am committed to ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well looked after. I am available Friday through Sunday, as well as before and after my college classes Monday through Thursday. I also have flexibility around my part-time job at a food restaurant, allowing me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care for your four-legged companions. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I live near two dog parks in a walkable area, making it easy to provide your four-legged companion with plenty of exercise when needed. I also have a variety of dog toys to keep them entertained and engaged. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will bring dog waste bags and a few of their favorite toys—or some of my own—to ensure they have a fun and comfortable experience.

“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!”


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.
“Erika was great! She stopped by several times while my family was away on vacation and provided detailed updates along with pictures. She was very nice and got along with our dog. We will definitely use her in the future!”

“The dogs love Alexandra, they are always happy and healthy when we get home. Also somehow our house smelled amazing when we got home, that never happens we have huge boy dogs. No idea how she did that!!!”

“Sabrina is a gem. Rocky immediately loved her. She's incredibly sweet and knowledgeable about animals. Clear communication, she asked the right questions during the meet and greet, and we felt completely comfortable with her watching our boy. We will definitely look to her for any future dog sitting needs. 💯 Recommend.”

Jenn did a fabulous job watching my diabetic cat, Jess, while I was away for a work trip. I had never left Jess at my home before for multiple days with just a catsitter visiting, but with Jenn, everything got done perfectly, and I know I’ll never have to worry! Jess also thanks you for a great experience :)

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Mainland on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,535 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Mainland. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mainland. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
