Sheila was timely with her visits and demonstrated care with our cat who has separation anxiety. Her hours of availability are second to none and her services really assured us that our cat was in good hands. I'd recommend Sheila to anyone who needed their cat watched.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I regularly pet-sit my teacher’s two Maltese dogs, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away. I’ve also helped care for a Great Pyrenees, which gave me experience handling large breeds that need confidence, patience, and attentive care. In addition, I’ve spent time around and built great relationships with my neighbors’ dogs, including a Corgi, an Australian Shepherd, and a Border Collie, which has helped me become comfortable with both playful companion breeds and highly active working dogs. Caring for my own rescue cats, Lily and Sky, has also taught me the importance of routine, gentle handling, and paying close attention to animal behavior. I treat every pet with patience, affection, and the same level of care I would want for my own. I’m flexible and able to provide attentive care throughout the day, especially during weekends and most weekdays. Since I’m local to Burke and nearby areas, I can reliably maintain your pet’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and companionship. I’ll make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions. I’m patient and attentive with animals of different temperaments, and I always prioritize a calm, clean, and secure environment. I also have experience caring for my two rescue cats, Lily and Sky, which has taught me the importance of gentle care, consistency, and paying attention to subtle behavioral changes.

Rachel recently watched our two cats while we were out of town and it was one of the least stressful trips we’ve ever taken from a pet care perspective. Rachel checked in with a note each time she visited the house and sent pictures, which was much appreciated, and the cats were happy and healthy when we returned, so we couldn’t ask for anymore. We will definitely be reaching out to her again next time we need a pet sitter!

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old and have experience with dogs, cats, and many other types of pets. I’m a trusted dog and cat sitter in my neighborhood, and many of my clients come through referrals. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always strive to provide safe, reliable, and loving care. Pet care is a part of my everyday life! I have three dogs and a turtle of my own, and I also regularly care for my neighbors’ pets. I’m flexible with my schedule and am happy to work around your needs whenever possible. I always make sure to follow any special instructions or routines you have for your pet so they receive the best possible care. I regularly walk dogs (and even the occasional cat!) and know how to create a safe, fun, and comfortable environment. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands.

Ella did an amazing job with my tuxedo cat! She sat and played with her-gave her treats-scooped the litter box-even managed to brush her a little! Tazz only comes out for those that she trusts- Ella was patient and kind and took her time with her. I will be booking again! Highly recommend this young lady!!!

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and rabbits since I was a kid, and they’ve always been a big part of my life. I also have experience supporting special‑needs pets and giving medication to both dogs and rabbits — even the ones who aren’t exactly thrilled about taking it. I have recently lost both my Jessie boy (husky mix) and Luna girl (holland lop rabbit) so I have plenty of time and fur baby love to give. I am available weekdays till 5 and Weekends after 12 noon. Everyone loves a good routine — our fur babies included. I’m happy to follow any schedule, habits, or special instructions your pet relies on. Whether it’s daily rituals, medications, or specific training cues, I’ll make sure everything is done just the way they’re used to. Your pup or bunny’s comfort and consistency always come first.

Pia did such a wonderful and thorough job checking in on our two kitties. It’s the first vacation without their canine sibling (and they probably enjoyed the quieter atmosphere). All the pics were appreciated. We highly recommend Pia.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Makleys Corner on Rover is $28.86 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 7,059 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Makleys Corner. 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 Makleys Corner. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
