“Rebecca is such a sweet and genuine soul who our boys love to see when she lets them out in the middle of the day! She is punctual, respectful, great with our pups, sends pics, thorough updates, and is just a wonderful person all around! Highly recommend!”
“Kelci did an absolutely wonderful job caring for our home and all of our animals while we were away. We came back to a spotless house and happy, relaxed pets, which says everything about the care and attention she gives. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and responsible hands. She is dependable, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend Kelci to anyone looking for exceptional care! 🐕🦺🐈⬛🐈♥️”

“Sydney was amazing. It was love at first sight for me and my dog. She was so caring and compassionate. I enjoyed the pictures she sent to confirm he was doing good. I will have her come again next time.”

I will do exactly what your instructions say on how to care for your animals. You as the owner know best. I'm familiar crates, potty training, feeding, ECT.
“Ashley was fantastic. She showed up with a C notebook, took notes, asked all the right questions. She stayed in communication with us about the cats and left the most adorable drawing of the kitties for us when we got home. 10 out of 10!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. I’m experienced with a variety of breeds, personalities, activity levels, sizes and ages. I currently have a puppy so I am up to date on puppy training and care! If your dog is in my care, they will have a constant source of entertainment, from fetch, tug a wars, walks, hikes and snuggles. I work from home so I have plenty of time to give your pet my full attention. I work part time as a freelance writer, and the rest I spend working for rover! My child is in kindergarten so she is gone most of the day. I have a fenced yard, a doggy door and a large dog crate for dogs who love to den. I live in a low traffic culdesac which is great for dog walks. Less noise and less distractions. I have a 4 month old puppy who I’ve been training (behavioral, social and manners) since day one. He is very friendly and social, loves dogs and cats!
“Sage did a great job checking in on our cat for 5 mornings in a row! She did everything we asked of her. She was very punctual by checking in with us each morning. And left us a picture each day. My cat unfortunately had other things on his mind. He was playing hard to get. As Sage came by early each morning, he was either still out hunting, or was hiding in his secret place. She said she only caught a glimpse of him one morning, and was too fast for her to get a picture of him. But she was patient with him. She added a few treats to his bowl of food each morning in order to see if he was eating. He was defiantly eating his treats, and his food. I think he was just being shy, as this was only the second time we've hired a cat sitter. We also opted to have him stay outside the whole time we were gone. As he is mostly an outdoor cat, and the weather was mild the whole time. Once we returned home, he was in our back yard, and came running when we called him. He was in happy spirits, and glad to see us!”
“Margie was amazing pet sitter for us. We are always nervous to leave our furry family with someone else. Margie made us feel comfortable and that she truly cared for our family. She was amazing and had amazing communication and was there every time it was scheduled. I very highly recommend Margie to take care of your furry critters. Best sitter! We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much!!”
“Kimberly did an excellent job! I hired her to do four 30-minute drop-in visits at my home over 1 1/2 days while I was out of town. I have two dogs. Through the Rover app, I received texts from her of when she arrived, when she left, and photos and comments of her visits. She played ball fetch with them and kept them very happy. I definitely will recommend Kimberly to my family, friends and neighbors.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 681 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Melba. 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.

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.
