“Claudia was amazing! Our cats recently lost their big sister Mocha and have been too afraid to socialize with the last few care takers, but they regained their confidence with Claudia. Every photo showed them happy and curious to hang out with their new friend. My wife and I agree, Claudia is our new go-to pet sitter for all upcoming trips.”
“Sarah is everything you could ask for in a pet sitter. She is 100% reliable and goes above and beyond. It is obvious that she truly cares about the pets that she is looking after. Can’t recommend her enough, and we will definitely see if she’s available for our future trips.”
“Bella was fantastic! We contacted her last minute because we needed help with giving medication to one of our kitties. She was able to come same day. We did a video call and I walked her through everything. We definitely will be using her again and if we loved the photos she sent of the kitties. It was clear that she loves animals.”
“Frank was great in providing care for my 2 cats. He was great in following the instructions I gave and was very social with the one cat who likes attention and was patient in trying to coax out my cat who is more skittish, just to make sure she was doing ok. I highly recommend Frank and would definitely call on him again!!”

“Melissa was super responsive and very helpful in watching our cat over a long weekend. I had some technical difficulties with auto feeders that required her to change some care on the fly and she was very kind and able to handle the quick change in tasks. Thank you Melissa!”
“Lenny is absolutely amazing! We just moved from overseas and I was worried my dogchild (he’s a senior) was going to have a problem bonding with a new sitter because he adored his last sitter. It’s safe to say he adores Lenny already and that’s such a relief. Lenny is such a great communicator and I love all the pictures taken daily. I couldn’t have picked a better person.”
“Melissa was amazing doing a drop-in visit for our four doggies while we were out all day! We have one dog who is pretty shy as she was feral, and I loved seeing a photo where she actually was by Melissa! Shows us Melissa has great vibes and energy, and when the dogs approve, so do us humans! Thank you so much Melissa!!💜”
“Jeana does a great job of relaying when there are shifts in our dogs behavior, which has helped us get a better grasp on his anxiety. She is a wonderful sitter!”
“Katrina is on time and our Pua enjoyed her drop ins. Our Pua is a senior dog who is deaf and has three legs and Katrina shared photos of Pua on her drop ins and it assured me Pua is getting the care she needs. I’ll definitely request for Katrina again.”
“Robin always goes above and beyond to take care of our babies. This was our 5th booking with her and our cat was a bit rambunctious, knocking over our legos and humidifier and throwing up every few days. Robin sent us many pictures daily to update us and kept our apartment clean and orderly throughout the week. We trust her fully and feel so at ease during our trips. She is the best pet sitter and deserves all the stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Molly checked in on my pups the previous weekend. Plans caused us to be away longer from home so she came over to let them out and give them some lovin for us. She sent me pictures and updates. It was so nice knowing they were in such caring hands and of course getting the pics too was very sweet. Will definitely be booking Molly in the future.”
“This is our 5th time having Olivia take care of our cats. She visited for 2 weeks while we were away. She’s very trustworthy and kind. Will continue to have her as our sitter. Thanks!”
About: Hello! Thank you for considering me for the pleasure of spending time with your pet :) I’m a former Assistant Trainer and Boarding Specialist with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs through house-sitting, boarding, and training. I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments. Whether your dog is shy, reactive, high-energy, or a couch potato — I’ve been there and truly love getting to know each individual personality. I’m confident handling multi-dog households, administering medications, and supporting dogs with special behavioral or medical needs. I know that every dog and every home has its own rhythm, and I’ll take the time to fully understand and honor your pet’s routines, preferences, and quirks. Above all, I genuinely love dogs — they’re such an important part of our lives and deserve to be treated with the highest level of care, respect, and affection. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and currently share my days with two of my own who join me on adventures and bring endless joy to my home. I’d be honored to care for your pets like they’re my own. I work remotely, so I am able to spend the day with your pet(s) while I am working and take any breaks for walks, play, feeding meals, etc. I am available for boarding any day of the week, provided there is enough notice. I can accommodate any requests for caring for your pet(s) in your home. I welcome any detailed instructions and take routine very seriously when petsitting.
“Wyatt took such amazing care of my sweet cat during the snow storm weekend. Very responsive and proactive even with snow in the forecast! Felt so rejected to know someone so caring was taking care of my fur baby!”
“Dana was fantastic! Reliable, friendly, professional and diligent. This was our first experience with drop-in visits for our cats. We were a little nervous as they haven't been left alone for more than a day until now. Dana was wonderful in providing updates and keeping us in the loop with how they were doing. Everything was left clean and tidy when we returned and the cats were both happy. Highly recommend Dana!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Vernon
Sarah is a professional and highly dedicated pet sitter. Her regular updates and photos allowed us to fully enjoy our travels, and it was clear she genuinely connected with our cats, making sure they felt comfortable and loved in our absence. When one of our cats experienced a temporary health issue, Sarah handled the situation with immediate action, clear communication, and diligent care. We are grateful for Sarah’s outstanding service and highly recommend her.
This was the first time Jeana did drop in visits for my two cats, one of which is very shy and she did a fabulous job! I greatly appreciate her thoughtful questions, daily updates and photos. Not only did she take care of their basic needs but took time to play with them, gaining their trust and putting them at ease.
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!
Claudia was amazing! Our cats recently lost their big sister Mocha and have been too afraid to socialize with the last few care takers, but they regained their confidence with Claudia. Every photo showed them happy and curious to hang out with their new friend. My wife and I agree, Claudia is our new go-to pet sitter for all upcoming trips.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Mount Vernon on Rover is $25.53 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 7,079 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:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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.
