“We were in a bind and needed someone to come care for our cats last minute. Suzanne responded right away and came to our home same day. I am at peace now knowing that our cats have the water, food, and attention they need while we are away. 10/10 recommended and we have rebooked for another visit with her!”

“Brittany takes such great care of my kitties! She makes sure to keep me updated and sends pics and I can tell they love her, even my stand offish kitty who’s wary of everyone, lol. I’d recommend her to watch your fur babies too!”

About: 🐾 Your Pet’s New Bestie is here! 🩷 I've had dogs my entire life and currently have three of my own, including my sweet senior girl! Being a dog mom has given me so much love and appreciation for how unique every pet's personality can be. I know that every fur baby has their own needs, quirks, and favorite ways to be loved! Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some playtime, or extra cuddles, or your kitty needs a little company and affection, I'll do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. 🐶🐱 I know pets are family, and I want you to feel completely comfortable trusting me with yours. I'm happy to send updates and cute photos so you can see how your babies are doing while you're away! My goal is to make every visit special and become a new bestie to your furry family members. 💕🐾 ☀️ I recently moved to Florida from Connecticut and have plenty of flexibility in my schedule! I'm available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week, with the ability to accommodate different schedules and your pet's individual needs. Whether your fur baby needs some company during the day, a midday walk, or a little extra love and attention while you're away, I'm happy to help! 🐶🐱💕 I'm excited to meet new furry friends in my area and make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I understand that every pet and family has a different routine, so I'll do my best to be flexible and find a schedule that works for everyone! 🐾🩷 🐾 Your fur babies' safety and happiness will always be my top priorities! 🩷 I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have also had cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my world. I currently have three dogs of my own, including my sweet senior girl, which has taught me just how important patience, attentiveness, and understanding each pet's individual needs can be. I know that trusting someone with your pets is a big deal because they're family! I want both you and your fur babies to feel comfortable and at ease while you're apart. I'll always do my best to follow your instructions, respect your pet's routines, and make sure they receive attentive, loving care tailored to their personalities. Whether your pet loves endless playtime or prefers a quiet visit and gentle affection, I'll meet them where they are. 🐶🐱💕 Your pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and cared for, and I'll treat them with the same kindness and attention I'd want for my own! 🩷🐾

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for and loving all kinds of animals, from dogs and cats to playful puppies and senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. My experience also includes a wide variety of reptiles, especially snakes, including large breeds. I truly love animals of all shapes, sizes, and species, and believe every animal deserves compassionate, patient, and attentive care. Your pets will always be treated like family! I currently work by schedule based gigs so advanced communication on schedule is all I need to care your precious furry and scale covered babies. All animals young and old of any species have specific needs for care and love. With 10 of my own I know the importance of their special requirements so I work with you to make sure all needs are met to every detail of your specifications.

About: I’ve had pets for the last 26 years. Two cats that lived to be 18 and 20 years old. I currently have one Australian Labradoodle three years old and two cats, Olive and Luna. I work from home so my pets get to go outside and enjoy love and attention during the day. I walk them for a few minutes during the day and ensure they can go outside when they need it. I don’t have a fence yard. I like to walk my dog with a leash. I don’t like to let my dog wonder around because in Florida you don’t know what insects or other animals could hurt them. I rather stay close to my pets to supervise them and ensure they are safe.

About: I have three dogs that are full of energy and have had multiple pets ever since I was a child! I dont have any children of my own and consider my pets as my children 😊 I understand the concern of wanting your pets to be watched by someone you can trust who will communicate with you effectively and care for them as if they are their own pet. I currently work full time as a pharmacy technician but I am available in the morning or after work for walks/ pet care. I also am normally off weekends and can work around schedules as needed. I am flexible to any needed care/ accommodations needed to take care of your pet and can also dispense medication to them if needed. I will make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible.

About: I have taken care of dogs/pups my whole life and have dog sat before (also cats). I love being able to make sure any pet has a safe place. We don’t deserve animals but I sure hope I make myself worthy of them. I work full time selling parts at John Deere but I can bring pets with me to work! Either way your pet will be looked after 24/7 by me and cared for. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pup to keep them company! I can accommodate any needs. My boyfriend is also a helpful hand. Whatever you need I can do!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve helped care for pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years, including feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them attention while their owners are away. I’m patient, reliable, and love getting to know every pet’s personality. I’m currently working overnight so I’m usually free during the day, around noon would be perfect but I’m pretty flexible as far as letting your dog out or feeding your cat if needed! As a pet owner living in an apartment with my own dog, I understand how important it is for animals to get exercise, attention, and time outside instead of feeling cooped up indoors. I make it a priority to keep pets active, comfortable, and emotionally cared for through walks, playtime, and quality attention. I always want every animal in my care to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in whatever environment they’re in

About: I have experience taking care of care of the smallest, and most ferocious chihuahuas to the largest of lovable breeds like the purebred German shepherd. I know they all have their own unique personalities and such and that’s why it’s important for me to let them warm up to me at their own pace. I have just started to look for more work as a “professional” pet sitter, along with house sitting. I am still in the process of expanding my little side business! Honestly I try to spend as much time with them as possible, or for cats let them come to me. For me it’s about being patient with their wants such as walking or play time, and always making sure they are healthy and well fed.

About: Hi! My name is Hailey, I’m 21 years old and currently in nursing school. I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a huge love for them. I currently have four cats and a Golden Retriever of my own, including a blind cat, so I also have personal experience caring for an animal with special needs and understanding the extra patience, attention, and consistency they may require. I also have experience watching and caring for my sister’s dog, along with taking care of my own pets every day. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable, patient, and loving looking after your pets while you’re away. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, companionship, and making sure your pets feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I also have reliable transportation and my own car, which makes it easy for me to travel to your home for drop-in visits, walks, or other pet-care needs. I’m responsible, caring, and excited to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly schedule. I am currently in nursing school and am available after 3:00 PM on weekdays once I get out of class. My weekends are open, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I also have my own reliable transportation, so I’m able to travel to clients and make sure their pets receive consistent and dependable care. In a client’s home, I would follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I can provide feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m also comfortable caring for pets that may need extra patience, since I have a blind cat of my own. I would make sure to follow any specific instructions the owner leaves and keep their home and pet’s space clean and secure while they are away.

About: I have loved caring for animals since I was a child. Walking and feeding our German Shepherd was my favorite part of the day. We also had a Chow and one feline. Training Rocky the rottweiler to remain calm while bunnies passed through the yard is my biggest accomplishment, thus far. I love working with animals and their energy. On Thursday morning I teach guided Meditation but make my own schedule other than that. I'm up early to watch the sun rise and greet all the neighbors and pups. Animals prefer and are most comfortable being in their own environment with the scent of loved ones surrounding them. I respect their boundaries and connect with their energy softly and respectfully.

About: I was raised in a dog family, so have been taking care of them my whole life. I've taken care of pets for friends and family. I've even spent time working in a Dog Kennel/Daycare too. I have experience with all breeds, sizes, ages and quirks. I have a house with a good yard, located conveniently off of I-40, near Triad Park. I service Greensboro and Winston-Salem; the Triad is my home. I enjoy catch, walks and hiking. I'm a fan of huge dogs, and enjoy playing games with smaller dogs too. I love pits & bully breeds! Currently, I have a wide availability so you don't have to worry about your furry family members one bit. Be at ease while your pet is in my care. Caring for your pets comes first, each day. Walks first and last thing; not to mention throughout the day. I keep them well watered; and will monitor their vitals if appropriate. If the weather’s good, & they’re in good health, I’d love to take them to the park. They can help me play guitar, or just vibe with me however is most fitting for them.

I had emergency back surgery and needed someone to take care of my cats last minute. Jennifer came through and was amazing just like before. My cats seem to really love her - even my one cat who takes months to warm up to strangers! I could tell they seemed really happy with her. Thank you, Jennifer. You’re amazing.

Thanks again to Renee for amazing care! She always goes above and beyond but I especially appreciated it during a recent short notice situation. Bonus note, Renee takes amazing pet pics. While doing everything else for the care, she also has grabbed some shots that are better than any I've ever gotten on my own!! I definitely recommend Renee.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Murdock

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Murdock is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 189 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Murdock. 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 Murdock. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
