“The highest praise a pet sitter can receive is that they care for your pets the way they'd treat their own. Reliable, caring, and goes above and beyond for her charges.”
“Robert took excellent care of my puppy Piglet. He was on time, provided plenty of photos and updates, respected my house, and followed all my instructions. Highly recommend Robert for your pet sitting needs and will definitely book with him in the future. Thanks Robert!!”
“Natasha and Gaspare were excellent! Offered to take my trash out to curb and bring in my mail when my flight plans changed. All the pet’s dishes were washed. Everything left in order. A definite rehire!”
“Erica B. did a great job and was so helpful with our dog Teddy! From the moment I reached out to her she was responsive and so accommodating when I had questions or needed to make changes. She did exactly what we needed, was so sweet to Teddy, and left a detailed report afterward. We’ll definitely be booking with her again and recommend her highly!”
“Melissa and David were awesome! I needed them twice in two months and only had a very short notice to give them each time and they were able to handle it! Highly recommend them! 😁”
“Devon was great! We have 3 younger, rambunctious kitties who needed some love and attention while we were away for an extended period. Devon played with them and made sure all of their needs were taken care of. Her communication throughout was excellent. I didn’t have to worry at all. We would recommend her to anyone.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have family that has all different kinds of pets! Dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, you name it! I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them. I just graduated high school at Mariner High School with Bright Futures and will be attending FAU in August! I’m currently working as a Food Runner at Slipaway in Cape Coral. I’m very responsible about making sure my dog is fed, entertained, and healthy which I would do for any animal. I always love to play with my friend’s animals when I visit because I see how much they love the connection too!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of any kind since i was around 13. I love them unconditionally, they bring happiness to everyone. I have my own dogs, bigger breeds, and occasionally dogsit for my sister when she’s out of town! this is my full time! so i have plenty of time to make it everywhere i need to be! i make this my top priority day in and day out! my dogs are free roam in the house, trained and well behaved. my cat is also free roam and is well behaved, and likes almost everyone! if your animals are crate trained, that’s fine! your house your rules! i always stick to what the owners prefer, like, etc. for their animal. i never go the route of sticking to my own rules, it’s not my animal, the owner knows best!
About: Any day I meet a new set of paws is a good day. I’m happy to help you and your fur babies however I can, I have 3 Italian grey hounds at home and quite a few cats. I promised I wouldn’t bring anymore animals home so I decided to join rover to make some money and give the extra love I have to other animals whose parents might need a helping hand. I’ve had experience taking care of animals my whole life at home but as well as pet sitting and drop in visits with my big sister ever since I was 11. If I’m ever not comfortable or sure of something I will let you know immediately or if you think I’m not a good fit that’s ok, because your pet comes first I’m currently searching for a job and my schedule is open for drop in visits , walks, even just play brakes to get out some energy of my own. I’m also available for house sitting. I treat every animal as if it is my own you may tell me your animals name but there’s a good chance I’ll be calling them something else. I have no problem calling and letting you see your pets in fact I due it with my own pets, I have experienced giving medication, following specific instructions, and being on schedules. I love hearing about your pets special traits and quirks.
“It this my first time using Rover and David made it so easy! He communicated very well and even worked with me on changing the date since my plans got moved. He gave me great details on how my pup was doing while he was there and even shared 2 pics with me. He understands these are our babies and you can tell he loves animals. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND David and will definitely be using him again!”
“Alexandria was awesome! She followed instructions and made sure my boy was well taken care of! She sent pics and kept me informed! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”

“Yani was incredible to get to know and communicate with. From the Meet&Greet to stopping for visit to take care of 3 dogs. She was commutative and flexible when I need to adjust the schedule visit time day off because we were coordinating with another sitter. We were sent picture at the end of every visit along with a potty break/ water report. Would highly recommend and request again”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 708 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Matlacha. 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 Matlacha. 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.
