“Sydney is an amazing person and a great cat sitter. She's genuine, honest, responsive, and super thorough. Not only did she look after Moose, but she played with him, gave him attention, and really cared for him. He wasn't feeling great one night, so she stayed up with him until he fell asleep. When I got home, she had cleaned the litter area, changed the sheets, and washed the bedding. Five stars for Sydney!”
“Knowing my cats are in Beth’s care always makes trips less stressful! I was thrilled we got her at the last minute this time around because I know she loves my kitties!”
About: I have had dogs all my life ranging from German Shorthairs to mini dachshunds I treat my dogs almost like they are my children. I worked as a vet tech and a kennel tech and spent most of my days petting and giving loves to all the pups. I have an older pup so I have experience with puppies and geriatric dogs. I work a very flexible job so I have an ample amounts of time to be present with pets. I have all weekends off so a lot of the time I’m home so I’m usually always available. I have a fenced in yard, dog door which can be closed if needed, my old pup is other dog and cat friendly, and I have two little kitties who are very accepting of other cats and dogs
About: I’m Jess, an experienced cat sitter, kitten foster, and mom to three fur babies of my own. Whether you are going away for a weekend trip or an extended multi week vacation, I am a reliable cat mom who will take care of your cats to the exact specifications you provide. I can visit 1-2 times per day or more depending on the need. I can give oral or eye medications. I can help upkeep the daily hygiene of disabled cats. Play time and cuddles are a guarantee. Pet sitting is a major part of my week. Depending on my schedule, I board cats at my home for multiple days and I visit cats at their homes for drop-in visits. I am usually busy with my other job from 11 AM-3 PM, but in the morning and in the evening I can do a lot of pet related care. I always care for cats with love and care. I know that cats need time to warm up to new people sometimes. I never do anything your cat doesn’t like—I completely understand their boundaries and how to get them to trust me. After trust is built, the rest of the care is seamless. I have three cats of my own, so a kitty who is boarded in our home will always have their own room where my cats cannot bother them.
“Sara did a fantastic job ... but don't tell anyone, OK? I want to make sure she's available when I have to leave the boys again. She stayed the night so they weren't lonely and they didn't rush to me like they usually do when I come home after being away. It's a big stress reducer to know Sara was there. Thank you!”
About: With years of experience in grooming, daycare, and pet sitting, I specialize in senior care, rescue dogs, and puppies.

In your home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and medications if needed. I keep things clean, stick to their comfort zones, and give lots of affection and attention so they feel secure and cared for.
About: I have been looking after pets of my own, as well as pet sitting for others for the past 15 years. My experience ranges from dogs, cats, bunnies, and smaller exotic animals. Taking care of others pets includes more then walking and feeding them. Making sure they have clean and well maintained supplies is a must! Following their own schedule allows for a comfortability similar to their own family. Making sure every pet is loved and comfortable is my ultimate goal! As a college student, I have many gaps in my days I can easily fill with a quick walk or check in with pets. I am also available for longer term care where I would be devoted to ensuring all of my time and focus is on your pet!🐾 Ensuring an animals safety is the most critical part of what I do as a pet sitter. I always make sure to follow the clients instructions on safety and care to make pets comfortable, and to hold myself accountable to the family's standards.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 678 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 .
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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
