About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I grew up in a home with Rottweilers, which taught me early on the importance of proper care, structure, and lots of love. Over the years, I’ve lived with rescue dogs and have also fostered dogs in the past, gaining experience helping dogs adjust to new environments and routines. Currently, I live in a home with a rescue St. Bernard and a Bernese Mountain Dog. While they aren’t my own dogs, I spend a large amount of my time caring for them, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I’m very comfortable with large breeds as well as dogs who may need extra patience and understanding. I’ve worked with many breeds and mixes, including Rottweilers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, French Bulldogs, St. Bernard, Labs, Doodle mixes, Pomeranians, Boxers, and a Rhodesian Ridgeback. I understand that every dog is unique, and I always aim to provide care that meets each dog’s individual needs while making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I work part time as a yoga teacher and 3 days a week in a hospital setting. This allows me to have a flexible schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and weekend (when I am not at the hospital) for daytime visits to take your pets out on walks, stop in for potty breaks or afternoon lunch/snacks. I currently do not have any pets of my own which makes overnight stays to care for your pets easy. I will come to your home for to care for your pet and offer them the services you wish to have for them. Whether that be overnight stays, daytime dog walks, offering meals, or even just some outdoor playtime in your backyard.

“Diana was excellent! She cared for cooper as if he was her own. I never had left cooper before and Diana eased my mind and made this a incredibly positive experience”
About: I am a 24 year old Graduate Student at Rutgers University and have been taking care of neighborhood and personal pets since I was 10! Not only have I taken care of animals in a home setting, but I have 2 years of experience in caring for animals in a veterinary setting as a veterinary assistant. I am happy to assist in any sort of special care that your pet might need - I have experience with animals of all shapes and sizes! I currently have two cats of my own that I take care of myself full-time and would love the chance to love your pet as much as you do! For your animal's and my own safety, I do require proof of up-to-date vaccination before booking (primarily Rabies vaccination). I currently work as a graduate student in a research lab at Rutgers University! I am very flexible and will communicate the exact times I will be caring for your pets :) I only offer services that take place in the client's home/neighborhood as I have two animals of my own! I am flexible with walk times and really enjoy nature so I am happy to take dogs for lengthy walks. I am also appreciative of any type of animal love so couch potatoes are great for me as well! I am very diligent about making sure that animals are safe with me. I ensure that when entering the home, I greet the animal gently and let them come to me. I will never push the boundaries of an animal or add stress to their home environment. I also am very detail oriented, and will make sure that your animal gets everything they need.

“Cindy was fantastic with my dog! She was very helpful throughout the entire process, always on time, and a great communicator. I really appreciated how responsible and attentive she was, knew my dog was in good hands while I was gone. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Marc was wonderful with our kitties! From the very first meet-and-greet, he was sweet, kind, professional, thoughtful, and respectful, which immediately made us feel comfortable leaving our cats in his care. During each visit, Marc went above and beyond to make sure our kitties were happy, cared for, and loved. He kept us consistently informed with updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that he truly cared about their well-being and took the time to make them feel safe and comfortable. We are so grateful for the care Marc provided and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring cat/dog sitter. Our kitties were in great hands!”
“Amazing! Our doggies loved him. He took extra care and truly altered his schedule to surround our dogs at the center of it. Consistently responsive, and let us know of every single detail which was most appreciative. Excited to book him again!”
“Laura was absolutely great!! She took the effort to meet me a few times prior, so we could practice and learn how to do my cat's inhaler therapy and she was able to consistently do it for him this time! Very very pleased with the outcome!”
“Yana took good care of our boy while we were away. I enjoyed seeing the photos she sent and hearing the updates of each visit. She communicated well while we were gone and made us feel at ease while we were gone.”
“I’m so glad we were able to meet with Emily and have her sit for our cats! Our cats got along with her right away. She went above and beyond for everything. She was very reliable and communicative which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away!”
“Christina did a super job taking care of my cats. She sent me pictures every day and gave them the care they needed. I will most certainly call on her again. thank you, Christina.”
About: I rescued my black lab 10 years ago on my own, and have groomed in and assisted in veterinary hospitals in the past. I grew up with a dog and cats and love most all animals. I used to be a veterinary assistant for a few years before covid, and I have good friends who work in veterinary medicine as doctors! I love to learn as much as I can in that field as well. I am fully available to care and love your animals- The sooner you book me for house sittings- all the better!! I will regularly take the animals outside, give them treats, cuddle on the couch together (if they’re allowed on furniture) and feed them as needed I am happy to provide as much care and service to you and your pets as often as you need it, and whenever I am physically able to be there to care for them for you! For house sittings, I give the the houses with fenced in backyards both your pets and myself to stay outdoors with one another for a longer period of time in a safer environment to get to know one another, especially during first time visits. I love to lounge around the house and get to know your fur babies, especially during my first few times of interacting with them, just to establish care and trust during this time.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and reliable pet caregiver with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Before fostering cats, I fostered dogs and I even had two “foster fails!” My two sweet pitties stole my heart and became permanent members of my family. Over the years, I’ve fostered numerous cats and kittens, including seniors, shy cats, and young babies. Fostering has taught me that every pet is unique, and I love taking the time to build trust, help them feel safe, and provide care that fits their individual personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and patience. I’m also comfortable giving basic medications when needed, but my greatest strength is creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets can relax and be themselves. My professional background has strengthened my patience, reliability, and attention to detail, and I bring those qualities to every visit. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll always treat them like they’re part of my own family. You can also count on regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your furry baby is happy and well cared for! I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide dependable, attentive care while keeping your pet’s schedule consistent. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn their routine, respect their personality, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and lots of love. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they know their furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“Noelle was AMAZING. Communication was excellent, her knowledge of cats is great. She looked after my 2 cats for a week. One had some medical needs and she handled them like a pro. In her photos, I could see the cats were snuggling her and happy. What more could a cat mom ask for??”
About: Over the past few years I've built hands-on experience caring for dogs in multiple settings. I spent two summers at Camp Bow Wow, where I supervised playgroups of up to 25 dogs and handled daily care tasks such as feeding, administering medications, cleaning play yards and giving baths. I have also volunteered at many animal shelters where I walked dogs, fed them, cleaned kennels and assisted with training playdates. Additionally, through my sorority I support the Boulder Guide Dogs for the Blind by fundraising, baking treats, puppy-sitting, and socialising puppies to teach them good manners and prepare them for formal training. As a college student, my class schedule is flexible (giving me plenty of free time throughout the day to walk, play with, and care for your dog!) I am super easy to reach via the Rover app or text, and last minute bookings are no problem. I am open to midday walks, evening check-ins or an overnight stay on short notice, and can adjust my schedule to meet your needs! I miss my own dog back home so much, so caring for your pet isn't just a job, it's a way to fill that gap. I treat every dog as if they're my own, ensuring plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. My experience caring for my dog (as well as 2 dogs and many foster dogs before her) have taught me to be patient, responsible and attentive to every dog's unique needs.
About: Growing up, my family and I lived on a small farm with tons of animals, including horses, cows, chickens, cats, and of course, little dogs. I was taught from a very young age that any living thing should be respected and treated properly. Puppies and kittens have been in my life for as long as I can remember, and my love for them has only grown over the years. Pet care is part of our everyday routine. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m home most of the day. We have a fully fenced yard that’s just under half an acre, and my kids and I spend a lot of time outside playing with our pets. They get plenty of exercise, attention, and love every day. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I also keep their space clean and always make their safety and comfort a priority.

I can't recommend Cindy enough! She went above and beyond while caring for my cat. From regular updates to making sure every detail was taken care of, she made being away so much less stressful. It's clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. My cat was relaxed, happy, and well looked after when I returned. Thank you, Cindy!
Kaitlyn did a wonderful job taking care of our cat while we were away for two weeks. She played with, fed her, brushed her, cleaned her litter box daily, gave her flea medication, and even brought in our mail while we were gone. We would definitely recommend Kaitlyn and will definitely book with her again in the future!
Kaylyn was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Freya. She cared for her twice a day for 17 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Kaylyn was reliable, responsive, and very easy to communicate with. What I especially appreciated was that if anything came up on her end that might affect the agreed-upon visit schedule, she let me know ahead of time. That kind of communication made it easy to trust that Freya was in good hands and that I would never be left wondering what was happening. She also followed my instructions carefully and was attentive to Freya’s needs. I could genuinely relax while I was away knowing that she was being well cared for. Leaving your pet with someone for 17 days requires a lot of trust, and Kaylyn absolutely earned mine. I would happily have her care for Freya again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, thoughtful, and trustworthy pet sitter.
Diana took very good care of our cat while we were away for the weekend! She paid diligent attention to the care instructions, and gave us very detailed updates after each drop-in visit. She really went above and beyond, and we could enjoy our trip while knowing our cat was in good hands!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Martinsville on Rover is $28.86 per visit (as of August 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 .

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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
