“First time meeting Beverly was amazing. Our cat Bella is very shy. Bella came out while we were talking and was looking at Bev, taking it all in. It was such a comfort to have Bev here with Bella. I was more relaxed knowing Bella wasn't alone. The house was immaculate. Bella's bathroom was clean. Beverly is just a wonderful and caring woman. She is a keeper. My husband and I highly recommend Beverly.”

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've had animals all my life. Everything from dogs and cats to reptiles and small animals. I've been house sitting for friends and co workers for almost 20 years. I'm a part time actress, so while my schedule does vary, I typically have a lot of time at home between gigs! I can spend a lot of time with your fur babies! I am comfortable with whatever level of care you need for your fur babies! If you need me to be there for the majority of the day, I can adjust accordingly.

“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!”

About: Online college student looking to do house sitting. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 12. I have much experience caring for outdoor and indoor pets ranging from birds, fish, cats, dogs, etc. Currently I am doing online school for Business Administration. I have another flexible part-time job where I choose my days of work as a vendor. My work days are typically 5-6 hours once or twice a week. I wake up at 6am where I can take your pet outside, feed them, play with them and give them lots of love. I am able to adjust my work schedule to your pets needs and am comfortable around many different personalities. I will give attentive care and clean up after your animals for your peace of mind. I have trained my dogs and hope to get a certification to become a trainer. I have worked with many different personalities ranging from anxious/timid pets, to energetic animals as well.

“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!”

“Aaron is absolutely amazing! He is kind, caring, and a great caretaker to any animal. Aaron stayed with my kitty, Paris for an entire week (which is the longest I've ever been away from her in 14 years) and things could not have gone better. He showed up promptly when he said he'd be there. He sent me updates and pics throughout the day ever single day even on days I told him I wouldn't have service. It was so nice to open my phone and have updates from the day before even though I wasn't expecting them. It was an even better feeling knowing that Aaron truly spent a lot of time with Paris as she is old, sassy, and needy for attention. Aaron was even there when I returned home in order to exchange keys and answer any questions that I had while I was away. It's obvious that Aaron truly cares about his work and his love for animals. I would absolutely book Aaron again and you should too!”

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.

“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!!”

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Melba

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 677 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 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 Meet & Greet .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Melba. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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 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.
