“Jaclyn was punctual, attentive, and so kind to our animals (2 cats, 1 dog. And a turtle). Her updates kept me feeling good about our choice, as this was the first time our dog stayed home over a vacation (we used to just kennel, and he can be alot). She loved on our kitties and played with our pup to help his energetic self happy, she even hand fed him when he protested by not eating. Will definitely use again!”
“Britney is absolutely amazing! Our 3 cats instantly warmed up to her. It was an extra comfort knowing that they were in great hands with her. We will definitely request Britney again to care for our babies.”
“Jimmy was very responsive, kind, and patient with our kitty who was too freaked out by our absence to come out of hiding much of the time. He made sure she had everything she needed and snagged a photo of her for us every time, though. Will definitely hire again!”
“Lindsey is the best, hands down! She gave very detailed update and spent a lot of time loving on my dog. Unfortunately, she had to clean up several potty messes and brought her own cleaning supplies and left a paper towel roll for me since I was out at home. Lindsey is absolutely the best rover sitter I’ve experienced and I will book again. Thank you so much!”
“Elise is a wonderful pet sitter. She cared for my little black cat and did a great job! She is dependable, considerate and loving. You can tell she loves her job. She sent pictures and even a video. My cat skipped the stress of boarding and got someone to visit her, play with her and feed her. We were both happy and grateful for Elise. Highly recommended.”
“Blake is truly outstanding! She did everything as instructed and did an excellent job keeping us apprised. She was very attentive to our three cats, devoting time to playing and snuggling. She even managed to befriend our shy cat who often goes AWOL when strangers are in the house. I highly recommend Blake.”
“I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Angelique as my pet sitter! From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving my fur babies in her care. She took the time to get to know my pet’s routine, likes, and dislikes, which really made a difference. During my time away, Angelique kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which reassured me that my pet was happy and well taken care of. Thank you again for your amazing service!”
“Brooke was amazing with our 4 dogs (including an almost 3 month old puppy!). She had no problem staying for extended drop in visits due to the new puppy. She played with all of the dogs, spent time outside and brought them in when it was getting too hot. I will absolutely be booking Brooke again soon!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and love getting to know every pup’s unique personality! I’m experienced in basic training and provide loving, attentive care. I’m deaf and use American Sign Language to communicate, but I can speak a little too—your pets will always be in patient, understanding hands 💛 I will be working from 7:30am to 4pm on Mondays to Fridays since school is back in session now! I will be able to have plenty of time to give your fur babies the best experience of their life 😆 I love hanging out and giving the cuddles! Meanwhile I will be free during school breaks such as spring break, fall break, Thanksgiving break/Christmas break. I am happy to housesit your place which means I can come and stay at your place to take care of your fur kiddos! Just need to be aware that I will have to step out sometimes to take care of my own fur kiddos and sometimes will have shifts to work. I always make sure to take care of the animals first before I head out.
“Absolutely Amazing! I needed someone last minute and she came through even though we were having trouble with the booking. We got it all worked out in the end and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. She was patient and kind and took wonderful care of Lilo! I am so grateful for her and the incredible care she takes in looking after your pets. I knew from the first check-in that I could trust her and that Lilo was in great hands. So thankful. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Robin was amazing. She took such sweet care of my old lady, Juliet, a 16-year-old Havanese, and our very opinionated cat, Saylem. Robin was timely with her check-ins and communicated with updates and pictures. Robin is so sweet and kind and I will definitely be calling on her again for our future trips. Thank you Robin for the care and attention you showed to my furbabies.”
“Tiffany took great care of our pets while we were gone. She even brought in packages while we were away. Our cats were happy to see us when we came home. She is professional and she knows how to take care of our fur family. Thank you Tiffany.”
“Melanie is great with animals! She is a very reliable pet sitter. I have a cat who is a little shy and within a couple visits Melanie was able to hold her. You can tell she loves animals. Highly recommend her!”
“She’s the best! Definitely book with her. I have a 70 pound puppy and he’s not the best at listening sometimes and she picked him up and put him in his crate for us since he decided he wasn’t going to. 😭 Lol! An angel! We are so appreciative and so is Bubba. ☺️❤️”
“Jonai did an incredible job with my two pups! She was on time, and went over and above for the drop ins. She fed them, played with them, and I got so many cute pictures! My dogs can’t wait til Jonai comes back to play! Thanks so much!! This was my first time using Rover and it will not be the last- thanks Jonai for making this a great experience for us! You will definitely be my “go to” sitter!”

Sydney was awesome! She asked questions to make sure our cat was getting the best care and was extremely attentive to our cat’s needs. She completed care that we didn’t even ask her to do because that’s how thorough and thoughtful she is! We will definitely be booking with Sydney again. Our cat wasn’t even mad we left, haha
Lucy went above and beyond what I expected. My kitties were very upset I left and would hide under my bed when she showed up, but she made sure they had fresh food and water, even crawled on the floor and sent me pictures of them daily. I will definitely use her again.
Amelia was amazing with my two cats, Milo and Bella. She took great care of them by feeding them, cleaning the litter box, and spending time playing with them, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. One of my cats is very shy and I left specific instructions for how to handle that, and Amelia followed everything perfectly. It was clear she was attentive, patient, and truly cared about my pets. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in McKinney on Rover is $22.2 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 3,199 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across McKinney. 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 McKinney. 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.
