“I am very pleased and grateful for her cat-sitting services. She is responsible and provides excellent care for our cats. I will definitely request her services again.”
“Autumn did a great job with my 2 cats! I felt at ease knowing she would have be caring for them. She sent multiple photos of both cats at all visits. She is punctual and professional. I highly recommend and will be rebooking soon.”
“Jillian took such great care of our kitty! She provided detailed updates during the drop ins with lots of adorable pictures, and our kitty clearly enjoyed her company. I came home to a happy and healthy kitty thanks to all the pets, cuddles, and playtime she provided. Thank you, Jillian! 😊”
“Kathleen was great! Very quick to respond and gave me regular updates, I was very happy with the experience and would love to have her cat-sit again!”

“Kyra did a fantastic job watching my three meow meows while I was traveling. I have battery operated food bowls (long story) and she even replaced them when needed! (Of course I forgot to leave replacements, so above and beyond to replace them.) Would definitely hire again.”
“Ned has taken amazing care of my cat twice now, he's incredibly reliable, spends so much more time playing with my cat than anyone else I’ve found on the app, and Moose seems to really love him!”
“Vita was amazing and had great communication with drop-in visits! She updated me with pictures and I could tell my cat felt very comfortable with her, I would love to have her cat-sit again in the future!”
“Nina is the best of the best! She really cares about my cats and makes me feel comfortable being away from them. She always has toys on hand and writes thorough updates to keep me informed. I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I've had dogs of all sizes, from Chihuahua to Great Dane and Great Pyrenees (multiple at a time), over the last fifteen years. I've cared for my rescue pup Dumpling on my own for the last five, and have helped to rehab her into the lovebug she is today. I like talking multiple walks per day, will give your fur baby lots of love and attention, and I work from home so they will always have a watchful over them. I understand how much pet owners love and cherish their babies, so I will treat them like they're my own while I have them. I work remotely full time and can be fairly flexible if needed. I walk my own dog four times a day, and she loves having walk buddies, so we'd of course take your pet along. On the weekends, I like going for extra long walks, so if that's something that your pet enjoys, they'll have a great time with me. I live in an apartment downtown, so I don't have a fenced area, but I let pets have free reign in my apartment. There are also two dog parks within walking distance, so for extra and off-leash play time, we can spend lots of time there.
“Wow!! Julie was absolutely outstanding and gave us sooooo much peace of mind while we were traveling abroad. She was extremely mindful and detail oriented leading up to the stay, and made sure to send several picture and video updates of our kitties every day (which we love!). They warmed up to her right off the bat. She immediately was able to notice and appreciate their individual personalities and quirks and knew exactly what each one needed to feel safe. We felt like our kitties were in the hands of someone who cared and loved them as much as we do, and that’s something that’s hard to come by! When we came home, the cats were visibly happy, healthy and the house was left spotless just like we left it. I am so glad we found Julie and would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for an all-around excellent, trustworthy and communicative sitter. Thanks so much Julie!”
“Grace did a very good job of feeding and playing with our cat and giving him affection. Our cat is very fond of her so we felt completely reassured that our cat was happy when we were gone.”
“Catherine did a wonderful job taking care of our three kitties. Our super shy kitty loved her especially! She took time and played with them every visit, followed all instructions, and was super responsible. Definitely recommend her and will have her back again!”
“Ella was exceptional to work with, we will definitely be rebooking!! Ella watched our two kitties over a holiday weekend and actually put my anxious mind at ease! During the meet and greet, and throughout the stay, Ella was friendly, quick to respond, and detail oriented. Our kitties have a bit of a complicated routine, but Ella kept them on track—even our anxious kitty took all of her medicines! Upon returning from our trip, it was clear that our kitties (and apartment) were well cared for! Thank you, Ella!!”
“Sierra did a great job taking care of our cat while we were gone. She is very responsive on the app and came over quickly when we had an issue with our feeder. Thanks a lot Sierra!”
About: I am a therapist full time and I grew up with a labradoodle (he’s 13 and thriving!) I have two cats of my own as well. Growing up throughout high school, I was a dog sitter and dog walker for neighbors and family friends. I have so much love for animals and experience in senior dog care, post-surgery care, and all sorts of cat care :) I also have watched bunnies!! I work full time as a therapist but full time looks different as a therapist, I work about 25 hours a week so I have lots of time to drop by and check on your animal(s) or take ‘em out for a walk! I approach every animal with love and respect for their boundaries! I am a huge animal lover and my empathy I would say is my strong suit for both my full time job and this one :)

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Vernon
This was our first time away as new parents and as always, Cassandra took such good care of Panda. He’s been a little standoffish since the baby arrived but you would never know with the way he interacts with her. He doesn’t give love easily but loves when she visits! Thank you again!
Marisa is the greatest! She took wonderful care of our three animals (two cats and a dog) while we were out of town and kept an eye on our home. She is conscientious, friendly, and communication was perfect. Our animals absolutely loved her, and our normally water-hating dog even went out in the rain with her for a walk! She even picked up mail and let us know about minor issues with the house and trash can while we were away. As long as Marisa is available, we will continue to book with her. Thank you!!!
Laura is a fantastic pet sitter! She was able to win the affection of 2 of my shyer cats. She's very clearly experienced with cats and their behaviors. She tired out my kitten with lots of play. She took lots of notes during our meet and greet and followed the (rather complicated) feeding instructions between the 3 cats. I will absolutely be booking with Laura again in the future
Nathalie is an outstanding cat sitter. We came home to very happy, healthy, and well loved cats. Nathalie was a great communicator about how our cats were doing and helped us work through getting them used to their new feeders. We loved the daily photos and the clear peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of so professionally.
Jada was fantastic, she will hands down be the only person we book to take care of Jake! He immediately took to her during our meet and greet and was super cuddly, playful, and comfortable which was all a great sign. She responded quickly during booking, and was very communicative leading up to and during the booking. She kept us updated with pictures and how Jake was doing, and took great care of our boy when we were away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Mount Vernon on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,182 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Mount Vernon. 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 with handling special pet needs in Mount Vernon. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
