“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.”
“Sydney was a SUPERSTAR!! Very thorough and loving with my babies. When I got home I could tell they were happy to see me but definitely given time and attention while I was away. I am looking forward to booking Sydney again in the future. Such a vibrant and compassionate person!”
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 💛 My schedule for summer is super flexible and 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! 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.
“I highly recommend Ms. Jaclyn! She bonded quickly with Lula and upon my return home, Lula's usual anxiety wasn’t present. Ms. Jaclyn was kind enough to bring in a package I forgot was coming in. Ms. Jaclyn is now on my speed dial when I have to go on my trips! James S.”
“Britney is so awesome! She is trustworthy, kind & my dog adores her. I feel very comfortable leaving my Bailey in her hands. She always provides updates while taking care of my dog. I have used her services a few times & will continue to do so in the future!”
“This was my first time using Rover. Britney responded quickly to messages, was punctual with visits, and, most importantly my pets seemed to love her. Will use again.”
“I have never used Rover, as we are new to our town and dont have anyone we know close to us. But we needed to go out of town. And I was recommended this app. Blake showed up when I first looked and no matter what I just kept going back to her page. I am so glad I did. I can't be more thankful for the peace of mind she gave me. My fur kitty is about 2 weeks shy of being 20 years old. With an 8/9 spoiled sister. She loved them like their own. Lady couldn't wag her tail hard enough when Blake stopped by. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this a very positive experience. If I could rate higher than a 5 I would. 🐈Jager and 🐕Lady will miss her!!!”
“This is our second time booking with Brooke and we will definitely be booking again! She was very flexible with our dogs’ high maintenance food requests and was patient with our ball of energy puppy.”
“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.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs and my own pet for a little over seven years now. I am most experienced with senior dogs, as most of my friends and family have older dogs with plenty of extra needs. I have fostered puppies for a few years now, and I am very well-versed in potty-training puppies as well! I currently have a full time job, Monday through Friday 8-5pm, some Saturdays 8-12pm and off on Sundays. I will be available to care for your pets in their own environment and safe place so they can feel comfortably in their own space and keep their same routine. I have a large, fenced backyard free of any harmful plants for my dog. Plenty of toys, a neighborhood perfect for walking, practicing leash training, and ample space for my pet to relax and play! I adhere to a schedule, whether it’s for my own or for my client, and I am very strict about it unless there is room for extra time depending on the dog’s mood/behavior. Very energetic, so your dog will receive proper exercise, attention, and so much love in my presence!
“Melanie did a fantastic job taking care of our pup while we were out of town for a few days! Very detailed updates with lots of pics. You really get a sense that she is caring for your pet just as you would yourself. Highly recommend and will not hesitate to use again in the future!”
About: I've taken care of multiple types of dogs from an early age. I also used to have a dog named Gary (my brother named him from SpongeBob) when I was younger, but my mom couldn't afford him anymore. During school breaks, pet care fits very easily into my routine because I have a much more open and flexible schedule. I’m able to prioritize regular feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day without time constraints from classes. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, maintain their routines, and be fully present while caring for them. I think that it's important to spend quality time with pets, whether that's going on a walk or spending time at the park. And also just following the pet owner's instructions as well as understanding their routine.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, watching over dogs and cats for friends, coworkers, and family friends. Growing up in a family that always owned large dog breeds made me very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand the patience, attention, and care both dogs and cats need to feel safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing reliable, loving care to keep pets happy and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily schedule as I have a flexible routine with plenty of availability throughout the day. This allows me to provide consistent attention, whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening visits, and be reliable for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs pets may have. I care for pets in my client’s home by following their routine closely, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I ensure fresh water is always available, clean up after pets, and maintain a safe, calm environment. I also give them attention and companionship, watch for any health or behavior changes, and respect the home by keeping everything clean and organized.
“Jamie was awesome. She went above and beyond. It rained the second day we were gone and she made sure their paws were clean before coming back inside. She also picked up some more treats because our pups ran out while we were gone. Definitely recommend her ?”
“Sara is our go-to sitter for any of our needs. She is trustworthy, reliable and a great communicator. We know our pups are in great care and company when she spends time with them.”
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages; administering medications to both the elderly and young pups, as well as appropriate exercise according to the needs of each individual pet. I love being able to give each pet the attention they deserve and cater to their individual needs! I currently work 38 hours throughout the week with hopes to move to part-time. My weekend schedule is flexible and I do not work at all! Tuesdays and Fridays are half days, so while I cannot care for pets in the morning, I am more than happy to accommodate them after 1:30 p.m. on those days. I prefer clarity in all situations before I begin my work. Any questions I have will be asked upfront, and I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have! I treat every animal with the love and care I would want my own fur babies to be treated with, and each pet has their own preferences that I would love to cater to.

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.
Vanessa did a great job taking care of our cats Bova and Cosmo. Food and litter box were well maintained through out our vacation. She took some time to comb them too. One of my cats is very sceptical and actually warmed up to her after several days and started making appearance. Would highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in McKinney on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of June 2026, there are 109 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
