“Serena was incredible!! Very responsive, thorough, and attentive. She sent many pictures during her visits which I appreciated. I could tell my cat loved her attention and care!”
“Allison always takes great care of my cat Frankie. He was very shy at first but he's really warmed up and I can tell he is very comfortable and well cared for. I always come home to a very happy cat!”
“This is the second time I have booked with Heather. She is very communicative and thorough, and always asks if there’s anything else she can do. My cat Aspen loves the play time she gets when Heather visits. I feel much better being out of town knowing that Heather will look out for her.”
“Natalie is incredible! She not only spends time with my kitties but makes sure they are healthy and happy! She is so helpful with my Socket’s medical needs and makes me feel comfortable knowing they are well cared for while I’m away. Thank you again for another wonderful visit!”
“Angela took great care of Rhys! She was timely, responsible, and communicative. We really appreciated her flexibility with the schedule and will definitely book again!”
“Yesika did an amazing job with my 1-year-old cat, Timmy. She was communicative, thoughtful, and extremely knowledgeable. She followed all of my instructions for visits and sent detailed updates. He had a skin irritation that popped up just before I went away, and she was so helpful in taking care of his skin on top of everything else. I felt so much less stressed being away from him knowing she was there! I will absolutely hire her again.”
About: I am a Certified Dog Trainer (Catch Canine Trainers Academy), and I have a first aid for pets certification. If you want to entrust your dog to a compassionate professional, I'm your guy. I am a dog trainer, and pet parent, and I have some extra availability for dog walking. If you live near me I can fit you into my schedule. As a dog trainer, I am very experienced in pet care. I train dogs in all my interactions with them, out of habit, but also because I wan't them to have happy lives.
“Courtney did an excellent job caring for my cat. She followed all instructions and provided detailed updates. I especially appreciated her patience and understanding with my cat, as she is typically very scared and anxious around new people. I would definitely book Courtney again and highly recommend!”
“When new people come over, my cat Tuffy usually hides, but he came right out to say hello to Lisa. That’s always a good sign in my book! Lisa took wonderful care of Tuffy, spending quality time with him and making sure he was happy and comfortable. She also sent daily updates with adorable pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. I can highly recommend Lisa and will definitely use her services again in the future.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Tawana's pet-sitting service! She cared for my cat with such love and attention, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Despite the building management losing the spare key, Tawana made an extra trip on the same day to ensure my cat was well-cared for, demonstrating her commitment and professionalism. She took the time to feed, water, and clean the litter box, and even played with my cat to keep her happy and entertained. Tawana also sent me the most adorable pictures and videos, which made me feel so connected while I was away. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals truly stand out. I am beyond satisfied with her service and incredibly grateful for her help. I highly recommend Tawana to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”
“Szu yu did a great job taking care of my cat Luna! She sent many pictures and videos of the drop ins and detailed summaries. She also gave great care and attention to my cat. I would highly recommend!”
“Emma was FANTASTIC! She took care of our kitties like they were her own and truly went above and beyond. She was communicative, caring, respectful and attentive throughout our entire trip. She even stayed longer to make sure our shy guy was comfortable enough to eat his dinner—and by the end of the weekend, he came out to see her! 🥹 We felt so comfortable knowing our cats were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for top-notch, loving care! If I could give 6 stars I would!”
“Yuting was super easy to communicate with and extremely prompt on her reply (especially with myself needing the check-in about 40 minutes ahead of schedule). On top of that, I had complete peace of mind that she was the one checking in on my old man (cat), especially after reading her profile and a brief chat with her. Extremely happy she had availability for me, and definitely will be booking again!”
“Haowen is a caring, responsible and dependable person. I would 100% recommend him to anyone and always happy/relieved when he's available to take care of our dog. He genuinely loves dogs and goes above and beyond every time!”
“Annaliese has checked in on our very shy kitty a couple times - she is one of the few people Lola will come out for. Great communication and detailed report cards. Awesome sitter all around :)”
“Melissa did some drop ins on our cats over Christmas week and it was a huge relief knowing we didn’t have to worry about them while we were gone. She cleaned the litter boxes, fed both of them, and gave one their daily medication. I would definitely book her again! Thank you Melissa!”
“Caitlin was so awesome! Met us day before to meet Wilks and see where everything was. It was super short notice and she accommodated for everything. The report cards daily made me feel less guilty for going away. Can't wait to use her again for our next vacation!”

I’ve booked with Szu yu before and can’t emphasize enough that she is reliable, communicative, and caring. I highly recommend her with your fur-babies. She visited my 3 cats 2x a day while i was out for the weekend, and I felt secure in that she’d keep them safe and cared for while visiting. Thanks, again, Szu yu!
Liz was amazing with our three cats! She was incredibly communicative and detail-oriented from the start. She came over to meet our babies beforehand and asked great questions, which made everything feel seamless while we were away. Our cats can get pretty anxious when we’re gone for too long, but Liz was so wonderful with them that we barely saw any of that anxiety this time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Liz to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets!
Emma was very helpful in coordinating logistics for watching our cats, and went above and beyond during the visits, even cleaning up some messes our cats made while we were away. She also sends nice visit summaries and photos of the cats after each visit. 5 stars!
Allison was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly caring, kind, and attentive, and my cat Barbie loved her. She took such great care of Barbie while I was away and made me feel completely at ease knowing the at Barbie was in such good hands. Her updates after each visit were very detailed, helpful and sweet, and I especially loved all the adorable photos she took of Barbie! It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Barbie was with her. I highly recommend Allison and will absolutely ask for her help again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Barbie! ❤️❤️
Best cat sitting experience of our cat-having lives. Dennis is patient and knows that every cat has their own style, and somehow he found Minka’s and they became pals. Minka is shy and skittish but Dennis’s cat skills won out. She went from hiding from him to waiting for him at the window. He always stayed to play with this high energy lass. The updates really made our day every time. Dennis is the best there is.
Isabel went above and beyond when I forgot to finish the booking after our interview, and visited him late at night once we figured it out. Vincent was very clearly taken care of very well while we were gone, and Isabel found his buttons right away with the right toys and the right games! Excellent work all around, thank you Isabel!
Monica was really great when she came the first day and the key didn’t work! We were able to work together for her to find a way in so we didn’t have to come back early from vacation. She came for exactly 30 min and hung out with our cat and he was taken care of which is all we can ask for.
Leyna did a fantastic job looking after our adorable cat, Luna! My partner and I were nervous because it was the first time we used a sitter that was not a family member, but our worries were instantly swept aside once we met Leyna. She is kind, professional, detail-oriented, and clearly loves animals. From our first meet-up, Luna took to Leyna and based on the adorable photos that were sent each visit, Luna only continued to feel more comfortable with her. Leyna also followed all of our instructions for care and was proactive about asking questions before we left on our trip to make sure she understood everything clearly. I would highly recommend Leyna for anyone looking for a pet sitter. ☺️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Malden 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 4,784 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Malden. 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 Malden. 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.
