“Isabella was great! She was able to help us last minute and make sure that our youngest kitten got her meds on schedule while we were away. She was responsible, and very communicative. Highly recommend !”
About: I have over two years of experience at a pet resort as a pet care associate where my job is to provide daily care for the dogs and cats in our care. I’m also currently working at an animal shelter where I continue to provide daily care to the animals in our facility and ensure all animals are being loved, cared for and are comfortable. I work full time sundays to wednesday 7am to 5:30 pm and every now and then once a week 9am to 7:30 pm. I’m free thursdays to saturdays all day and if needed I can do anything after work as long as it’s after my work hours. My cat is strictly indoors. He gets taken outside on a harness to be safe. He is feed twice a day morning and night but sometimes if hes feeling extra hungry he’ll get lunch which I give him wet and dry food. Litter box is cleaned daily twice a day and he has access to all rooms in the house.

“Great experience! She was very flexible, communicative, and took great care of my dogs during the drop-in visits. I really appreciated the updates and knowing my pups were in good hands. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Ray was fantastic taking care of our two cats. They were well fed and happy- it was such a relief to know they were in such good hands while we were away. Would love to rebook Ray for the future!”
About: I am not your average sitter, I have a lot of time on my hands to help you and your fur babies any time of day. I do not speak English but I am dedicated to work and help others around me. I am retired and have a lot of time on my hands. I am available every day of the week just let me know when you need me. I am willing to travel to you home and I will make sure to take care of your fur babies and your home as well.
“Will definitely continue to use Cassidy to care for our cat when we travel! She took excellent care of our cat and communicated with us about everything! We couldn't be happier!”
“This was my second time booking Amanda to watch my cat Nugget. She takes great care of him and I can tell he really likes her. I would trust Amanda with Nug any time :)”
“Charly came with less than one days notice and took my dogs out, fed them and had some playtime. We got the times mixed up and he stayed a little longer to make up for it. Thank you so much, Charly.”
About: I regularly watch my brothers dog and take him on walks. I also have watched multiple friends dogs throughout the years including walks, feedings, boarding. My schedule is open during typical work hours, so I’m available to do feedings and walks throughout the day. I don’t have my own pets but watch friends pets often. I have both boarded pets and stayed at clients homes. I follow typical instructions and routines as provided by the owners and send regular updates. Usually become best buddies by the end!
About: My older brother used to breed South African Mastiff’s and train different breeds. I’ve been blessed to learn the difference between dog breeds, how they communicate to each other and their owners, and understand what needs their personalities require. I also help my sister with her husky and they are a bit much lol, so that’s a bonus in experience! It is my goal to deliver attentive and dependable care to every paw! My schedule as of right now is quite flexible since i’m working part time as an Esthetician. I decided to join rover to bring more fulfillment into my weekly routines. I have a big field next to a playground in my townhouse complex where the neighborhood dogs hang out. I also have fenced back yard & covered outdoor patio if being around other dogs aren’t an option. I like to keep anything at reach away from pets , while giving them space to roam freely, unless requested otherwise. As for cats I like to keep a closer eye on because they are quite curious so while giving them their space, I like to check in on them often.
“Booked again with Joseph, and it was great! He communicates well; asks questions as needed, does as asked and did a couple extra things that I did not get to before I left; such as cleaning the water fountain. Cat was medicated :) Book Joseph and pay him more, he is worth it!”
About: My lifelong love for animals began growing up visiting farms, which taught me to be patient, gentle, and attentive to animal’s needs. I worked at an animal hospital for over a year, assisting veterinarians with administering medications to dogs and cats. I also handled the boarding and daily care of dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and geckos. I was trained to properly feed, monitor, bathe, and exercise over 100 pets per day. This hands-on medical and boarding experience allows me to provide a higher level of care, safety. I adore senior doggies and cats and the puppies and kittens are the funniest! I maintain a consistent weekly schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive pet care. I am available in the evenings on Mondays and Wednesdays after 7 PM, have midday and evening availability on Tuesdays, and can provide care in the mornings and evenings on Thursdays and Fridays. I am fully available on weekends, which allows for extended care, drop-ins, and flexible scheduling. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my main focus is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My experience working in an animal hospital taught me how to carefully follow routines, notice small changes in behavior, and handle pets gently in their own space. I treat every home with respect and stick to each pet’s usual schedule and owners requests, whether that’s feeding, medications, litter care, or walks. I’m trained to give medications and I always take my time to make sure everything is done correctly and calmly. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, so I make sure to send updates, photos, and notes after visits. My goal is to keep pets relaxed and happy while giving pet parents peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is in caring hands.
About: What sets me aside from other sitters is that I have first hand experience with many types of dogs and cats. I’ve worked at a couple of daycares and I have my own animals that I care for deeply. I understand how a pet can be your child and I promise to care for them as I would my own. I’m very responsible, reliable, and I am very fast with responses. Please consider me when you want your pet properly cared for🫶 I currently stay at home for work and I am an artist! I care for my cats daily and can take on the extra responsibility of your animals too! I care for my own pets in many ways, I accommodate their needs and I also try to give them the best care possible! Accidents happen but I always keep the place clean!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always had a huge love for them! I also have professional experience working in kennels, where I cared for dogs and cats with all different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while they’re in my care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and would love to get to know yours! 🐾💗 I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your pets! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and make sure they get the care and companionship they’re used to. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority! I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, supervision, and attention while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

Jackie was a delight to work with, as always! When I had forgotten to confirm an important booking detail, Jackie reached out to proactively ensure she had all the necessary information and went above and beyond to make sure our cat got the care she needed on time. She also sends the sweetest photos, and our cat adores her.
Claudia was amazing! This was our first time using Rover or any type of pet sitting service. At first I was slightly nervous as I knew our cats are somewhat shy and I didn’t exactly know what to expect. Claudia eased all my concerns! She was incredibly communicative leading up to her visits and our kitties loved her! Highly highly recommend and we won’t hesitate to book her again!
Alyssa is just the absolute best. It is such a wonderful peace of mind when we’re out of town to know our two fur babies are in such wonderful hands. Alyssa has watched our tabbies every time we have been out of town and I can’t recommend her highly enough!
Rebecca was fantastic! The best cat sitter we have had. She sent photos and videos and clearly spent time playing with our cats and it was clear they came to trust her and look forward to her visitors. I also really appreciated coming home to a clean litter box and all the food bowls and cat food trash taken out. Will definitely use Rebecca again!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Mount Vernon is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.

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.
