“Laura was wonderful with my babies. She sent photos of the dogs outside. She followed directions on their food/water feeding. She is very trustworthy, pays attention to detail. Laura was within the timeframe we discussed, she text me when she saw it appeared someone else had been in my home. (I failed to inform her a domestic keeper would also be there at times) I will definitely be using her again.”

About: Over the past 3 years, I’ve helped a close friend by caring for her dogs while she was away. I make sure dogs get plenty of attention, walks, and a consistent routine so they feel happy and comfortable. I offer in-home visits for your pets at times that work best for you. Each visit includes attention, playtime, and care that keeps their routine consistent while you’re away. I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I provide safe and reliable in-home care for your pets. I follow your instructions carefully, make sure your pet feels comfortable, and keep their routine consistent. I also update you if anything important happens, so you always know your pet is safe and happy.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet. I treat each animal like a member of my own family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs so they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I'm experienced with puppies and can reinforce basic training, potty schedules, crate training, and positive behaviors through consistency and patience. I'm also comfortable caring for senior pets, including administering oral medications, accommodating mobility challenges, and providing the extra attention and gentle care they need. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or has special requirements, I'm committed to providing dependable, loving care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I am currently a college student so I can provide pet care before and after classes. I am also free every Friday, Saturday and Sunday! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow their regular routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether in your home or mine, I provide plenty of attention, exercise, and updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Kari has such a warm personality I had no concerns leaving my cat in her hands. Cora warmed up to her quickly and Kari shared lots of cute photos from their time together. I will definitely be booking her again for future stays.”
About: I’ve had the privilege to care for animals professionally for over 20 years in the zoo field. My work has given me extensive experience reading animal behavior and providing patient, low-stress care tailored to each individual’s needs. While my career includes working with a wide variety of species, I genuinely love spending time with dogs and cats. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or just likes things done a certain way, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make each visit a positive experience. I’m comfortable caring for puppies and kittens, senior pets, multi-pet households, and administering many oral medications. I use positive reinforcement, prioritize safety, and pay close attention to details, so you can trust that your pet’s routine will be followed carefully. Communication is also important to me. You’ll receive updates and photos after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine! On weekdays, I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks before work and again after 4:00 p.m. Since I work a consistent first-shift schedule (7:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.), you can count on reliable availability. My weekends are Sunday and Monday, when I have much more flexibility for visits and walks throughout the day. For drop-in visits and walks, I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding, refreshing water, administering approved medications, cleaning litter boxes, potty breaks, playtime, or simply spending quality time with your pet. During walks, I pay close attention to each dog’s body language, the environment, weather conditions, and any potential hazards. I use positive reinforcement and never force a pet into situations that make them uncomfortable. If your pet is shy or nervous, I’ll let them set the pace and work to build trust through calm, patient interactions. I also know how important communication is while you’re away. After every visit, I’ll send you an update with photos and let you know how your pet did, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Melany was very quick to respond when I asked if was available for the dates needed and with follow-up communications. It was my first time leaving my kitten Saffy overnight and she can be shy. Melany made sure Saffy was well cared for and I enjoyed seeing pics of their play time. I will definitely use Melany in the future.”
“Brianna was great and very accommodating. She provided great communications throught the week and we could tell our companions were well taken care of. We really enjoyed the numerous photos to allow us tobsee how well they were doing. Our minds were certainly at ease allowing us to enjoy our time away from home. Thanks Brianna!”
“Alexia went above and beyond to not just make sure my two kitties were taken care of, but also managed to keep them comfortable and happy while we were out of town for a week! She cleaned the litter box out and even tidied up and vacuumed when needed. The cats love her and we will definitely have her back”
“Kamryn took care of our two cats for a week and was great about getting over there to see them. This was her first experience with cat sitting, which has some different requirements than dog sitting, obviously.She always sent pictures of our fuzzballs after she was done, which was great to see they were in good hands. Thank you so much!”
“We felt soooo comfortable leaving our Kaiser with Lauren and Justin. They made sure to tell us everything that was going on and sent plenty of pictures, which I appreciate so so much. He had a wound while we were away, and they were so nice to put some medicine on it. Will definitely book again for next time we go out! 100% recommended ?”
“Kristen did an amazing job checking in on our dog. She was great with communicating when she was coming and leaving. She also sent pictures at each check in. I highly recommend Kristen for watching your pet. We will be going back to Kristen if ever in need :)”

I can’t recommend Ariel enough! She took such great care of my cats while I was away. Her communication was wonderful and gave me real peace of mind. She also went above and beyond by offering to put our trash bin out on trash day so the litter waste wouldn’t be sitting in the garage the whole time we were gone. A small but incredibly thoughtful gesture that made a big difference. The house was just as I left it, and it was clear my pets were not only fed and safe, but truly cared for. I’ll absolutely be booking with Ariel again. Thank you for treating my fur babies like your own!

As of July 2026, there are 2,305 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Midlothian. 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.

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.
