“Amanda was responsive, caring, and incredibly trustworthy taking care of James and Winifred. She sent pictures and let me know of her arrival and departure. I would highly recommend her- she’s very comfortable with my rowdy dogs and they loved her immediately.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life!, my first dog when I was little was the same age as me from age 1-to age 10! Growing up with her was a great experience we were best friends and did everything together! For years I’ve stayed at my aunts house twice a year to dog sit her dogs when she would go on vacation, I also stay with my dads dogs when he goes out of town quite frequently. My boyfriend and I have recently bought a van and are deciding to travel around the country in our van full time, so we will have plenty of time and a free schedule to watch/play with your fur babies. I will make sure they are played with and cared for and have lots of pets and cuddles if needed. Also walks or runs depending on what you prefer for them!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by 5 English Mastiffs, a pitbull, and 5 cats, so I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and personalities. Most recently, I had the privilege of caring for my dog Rex during his final months, which gave me experience with health issues, medications, and supporting pets with disabilities. Over the years, I’ve also watched many different dogs, and nothing makes me happier than when they come back for another stay! It feels like welcoming back old friends. Being around animals truly brings out the best in me, and I treat every pet as if they’re part of my own family. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and gentle, or needs a little extra care, I’ll provide the love and attention they deserve. Feel free to contact me with any questions at any time! I’m available every day for walks and house sitting! I’m currently in PA school and have just one in person class from 8:30-11 Monday-Thursday. If I have to leave them for any amount of time I will be fully transparent and I will make sure it’s within the time frame you prefer! If needed I can take a pet for a day. I’m currently in graduate school at Upstate Medical and just have a class from 8:30-11. But your pet will always be treated like a family member! They will be safe, loved, and well fed. I love playing outside with dogs because it’s the best part of their day!
About: Have taken care of over 75 families animals and would be happy to assist with any related type of help while you are away too! I have winter availability any Monday-Thursday. Every day before 9:30am and after 6:30pm in addition. Guaranteed peace of mind/satisfaction. Always feel free to contact me. Currently only able to assist in walks and no housing at this moment in time. Will change this message as soon as that can happen. Thank you kindly!

About: My heart has always had paw prints on it! ❤️🐾 I often say I'm living the dream, because getting to spend my time caring for animals truly is a dream come true for me. And most certainly a blessing. If you need an attentive caregiver to watch over your pets, than look no further! My goal is always to bond and make a friendly connection to become their new buddy!..Someone they trust and feel at ease with. Also to give you the confidence that your babies are in the most excellent, capable, dedicated, loving care and have complete peace of mind! *My experience goes well beyond basic feeding and walks. I’ve cared for puppies, energetic young dogs, senior pets, large breeds, cats, multiple-pet households, animals requiring extra patience or special attention. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed, even complicated care instructions, and nursing injured or recovering animals. So, you can feel reassured that all of your pet’s individual needs will be carefully followed. *I’ve also worked in farm settings with horses, goats, chickens, ducks, other farm animals, livestlock, exotic pets and more! Over the years, I’ve helped animals that were lost, injured, neglected, or simply needed someone to care, including personally rescuing and nursing animals back to health. I've organized and held fundraisers for non-profits, volunteered much of my time at shelters and behavioral therapy/training spaces, as well as fostered many cats and dogs until their forever home is found. I'm committed to ongoing training and education, but the best teachers are the animals themselves. Pet care is a treasured natural part of my daily life and something I prioritize and make plenty of time for. My schedule is built around providing dependable, attentive care for all animals entrusted to me. I plan my days carefully around each pet’s established routine, including feeding times, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, companionship, and any special instructions their family provides. I understand how important consistency can be, especially for senior pets, puppies, pets taking medication, or animals who may feel anxious when their family is away. I believe pets are most comfortable when their familiar routines are kept as consistent as possible. That includes feeding timing, snacks, fresh water, walks and potty breaks, medications, playtime, exercise. Unlimited affection and love as well. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, energy level, and anything that seems unusual. Safety is always a priority, including securely checking doors, gates, leashes, and the home before I leave. I also provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing how your pets are doing while you’re away. Just as importantly, I understand that I’m a guest in your home. I respect your property, belongings, privacy, and personal space, clean up after myself and your pets, and strive to leave your home just as you left it—or better. My goal is for you to return to happy, well-cared-for pets and a home that has been treated with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
About: I've cared for animals my whole life but I've been working as a veterinary assistant for 7 years. Thanks to my experience I'm comfortable with all sorts of animals and situations. I'm provided a lot of different medical care as well. I'm most passionate about providing the best quality of life. Especially for the misunderstood critters, like the seniors, reactive, and even reptiles. I'm currently working full time during the week, so I am able to do some morning or evening care. I have open availability on the weekends. I can care for pets in your home and provide the routine that they are used to. I can also clean up or do whatever is helpful while spending quality time with your pet. I am able to care for some pets in my home as long as the environment suits them well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 88 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Marcellus. 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.
