“She has been incredible with my special needs and senior cats! I have had sitters over the years as I travel for due to being applied attendant, and I can’t stress enough how much my cats love her. She takes her time to allow my cats to warm up to her. She is also able to administer medication to both of my cats. One has kidney disease and one has IBD… so both are on different medications as well as different foods. She has done amazing with both and provides a lot of updates with lots of videos and photos! Highly recommend’”
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, especially dogs! I previously worked professionally as a dog handler and walker at Biscuits & Bath in New York City, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and individual needs. Through this experience, I learned how important patience, attentiveness, and consistency are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, keeping them engaged and active, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I take the responsibility of caring for them seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, experienced hands! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets! I’m happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to incorporating into my daily routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll always do my best to work around their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. I’m also happy to discuss specific scheduling needs to find an arrangement that works best for you and your pet! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! My professional experience working with dogs has taught me how important it is to be attentive, patient, and aware of each animal’s behavior and individual needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure to respect their environment and maintain the routines they’re most comfortable with. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special care requirements. I’m especially mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, using appropriate leashes and equipment, and ensuring pets are always supervised when necessary. I also understand that some animals may be nervous around new people, so I take a gentle approach and allow them to become comfortable at their own pace. I believe communication is an important part of building trust, and I’m always happy to send pictures and regular updates throughout each visit. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and completely cared for!
“Evgeniia is a fantastic cat boarder!! She cared for my cat, Bella, for eleven long days and kept me posted on how Bella was doing throughout her stay (with videos and pictures). She is very patient, kind, and a loving mother, and her kids are incredibly gentle and kept Bella entertained. She was very quick with her responses. She was kind enough to do an online meet and greet with me before we went ahead with an official booking. What won my heart was when she went out of her way to drop off Bella's favorite pop-pop ball, which I forgot to take back. If you're looking for a cat sitter/boarder, she's the best you can find! I highly recommend her; she's the best! You rock, Evgeniia!”
“Kensey was awesome!!! It was our first time leaving our sweet boy and thankfully we came home to a happy and content kitty. He and Kensey adjusted well to each other and in no time she was understanding his kitty language and habits. She was very conscientious and really wanted to make sure she was keeping him to his normal routine as much as possible. He seemed very relaxed and comfortable with her. She administered his gabapentin at night with no problem. She sent us pictures and communicated very well. The house looked great when we returned. She is very sweet and it was obvious she has a love for animals and is very comfortable with them.”
About: I have had dogs and cats from a very young age and am confident I can provide quality care to others fur children as well! Currently working pet care as I work towards my MSW licensure. I am pretty flexible for pet care during anytime of the week as of now. I live with two friendly cats, I am able to crate a dog and or cat if necessary and can do so in your home if you instruct me to.
“Lauren was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and we especially loved receiving daily pictures and updates—they gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Lauren did a fantastic job with walking, feeding, and making sure our dog always had fresh water, but most importantly, she truly showed our baby so much love and attention. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I've taken care of animals from puppies to seniors. I know that each animal is different. I am patient and kind. I will make sure I care for your animal just the same as I would want my own furry friend cared for. I am a SAHM but my girls are much older. I am an artist and work from home. I am able to come and go as I please. I'm very flexible. I have a fenced in yard and I have animals myself. All are vaccinated and are good with other animals. I am also able to come to you and take care of your friend in your own home as well.
About: Experienced lifelong animal lover offering reliable, dedicated pet care. Having personally cared for a wide variety of animals—including dogs, cats, rabbits, and livestock—I understand the unique needs and temperaments of different pets. I bring patience, strong empathy, and attentive, playful energy to ensure your pets feel safe, active, and comfortable while you're away. I work in the mornings and I'm off on the evenings. If you like me to stay at your home I can do that too, I've done it before with my aunt's and cousin's cat I have a kitty on my own, her name is Velvette. I wake up at 5am to get myself ready for work, before I leave around 6:30am I feed her tuna, and pour some of her dry food in another bowl. When I come back I give her treats, play with her, she follows me around and then we lay together in bed and then 10am I feed her tuna again
“Sarah has done another fantastic job caring for my parents’ cats! She takes the best photos and continues to go above and beyond for her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter! She will be my parents go-to cat sitter from now on!”
“Blair was great! She sent me many photos and comments of my kitties from each visit. One of my cats is diabetic and needs two shots of insulin a day, and she did a great job! He came right to her and loved up on her!”

About: I will truly care for your pet as if they were my own and make sure they are comfortable and well cared for while you work or when you’re away. When I’m scheduled, I'm happy to spend all my time with your pet. Anytime I’m not in class (usually only a couple of hours a day), I can spend time with your pet and truly prioritize them so they’re not alone.

About: As a german shepherd and ragdoll owner, I understand the care, attention, and exercise pets need to stay happy and comfortable.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Marvin
Gracie was incredible! Our dog isn’t the easiest but she took care of her and our cat effortlessly. She is very punctual and very communicative, never felt like I had to pry to figure out what was going on at home she just always said everything in her reports and mentioned anything out of the ordinary she saw day to day. She even left food out for the stray cats that come by! Thanks so much for everything!
I can’t say enough good things about Dominique! She watched my 2 cats for 6 days, which is the longest they have been alone and she kept me updated on them with photos and videos. She also was willing to do a meet and greet the weekend before so she could meet the cats and know where all their supplies are. If you want a friendly and communicative sitter who will treat your fur babies like they were their own, book with Dominique!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Marvin is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
