About: I am a stay-at-home mom who understands how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your cat while you are away. I have transformed my entire basement into a safe, peaceful, loving retreat where your cat can relax and receive plenty of individual attention. Every cat in my care receives their own personal Kitty Cabana or Glamping Tent experience, complete with individual indoor play in our Playroom and open air lounging on our outdoor Cat Patio. Whether your kitty loves cuddles and playtime or a quiet space to settle in at their own pace, I'll make sure your little camper is comfortable and cared for. You will receive lots of photos and updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your cat is safe, happy, and getting lots of love. I specialize exclusively in long-term cat boarding, which allows me the opportunity to give each cat the time and consistency they need to truly settle in and feel relaxed. As a stay-at-home mom, my daily routine is centered around being present and attentive, so your cat will receive constant care, supervision, and companionship throughout their stay. Because I only accept long-term stays, I'm able to build a real bond with each cat and maintain a calm, consistent routine and environment that helps them feel truly at ease. Throughout their entire stay, your cat will be safely and securely contained in their own private Kitty Cabana or Glamping Tent, our enclosed Playroom, and the secure Cat Patio. Campers are carefully rotated and never allowed to interact with other household pets or campers. This allows your cat their own peaceful retreat, while giving you the comfort of knowing your cat is safe, secure, and lovingly supervised throughout their stay.

About: Reliable, structured care is what sets me apart. I’m happy to follow your established routines and house rules to ensure consistency for your pet. I’m comfortable with puppies (crate routines and reinforcing good habits) as well as senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive pace. I regularly care for dogs during the weekday and am experienced managing routines, timing, and midday coverage. I prioritize dependable timing, clear communication, and making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve owned dogs for over 15 years and have been pet sitting since 1995. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Pet care is already part of my regular weekday routine, allowing me to provide consistent and reliable service. I structure my schedule to maintain dependable timing for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I’m typically available for weekday midday and afternoon care, and I also offer boarding with a safe, structured environment and plenty of outdoor time for play, exercise, and fresh air. I don’t currently have dogs of my own, which allows me to provide a calm environment and give your pet my full attention. I keep my schedule organized to ensure each pet receives attentive, well-paced care and doesn’t feel rushed or overlooked. Safety and consistency are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. I follow each pet’s established routine closely, including feeding schedules, crate or free-roam preferences, and any specific care instructions. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with a large, fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor time, exercise, and enrichment. Pets are never left unattended with unknown animals, and I prioritize a low-stress setting tailored to each dog’s temperament. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and secure. I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any changes that might indicate stress or discomfort. I’m also comfortable administering basic medications if needed. I focus on clear communication, dependable care, and making sure both you and your pet feel confident and at ease.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about nine or 10 years old, less in the caregiver since until I was an adult, I now have two dogs and love them dearly. I also enjoy working for Wag!, which I have worked for almost 10 years on and off with a perfect five star rating in many many great reviews. my daily routine includes taking care of a my older dogs, and my cat. I include them in all my plans to make sure they are always taken care of. I always consider them as an extension of the family and their needs are always my priority. I tried to tackle things head on and make sure that their needs are met before my own.

About: I have always loved animals and have had my dog for 13 years now! before going to college I worked with previously abused animals working to rehabilitate them! I love all animals and especially working to help them calm there anxiety! I’m currently working part time and would be able to stop in throughout the day to let them out, feed them and whatever else they may need! I would need between 4-5 hours between letting them out! I will care for them like they are my own! I think this is the best way to take care of pets! I love all animals and believe they should be treated with the most respect ever!

About: Since I was a baby, we have always had animals around. Throughout my childhood, we owned different animals such as: dogs, cats, birds, fishes, turtles, and rabbits! I currently own 2 cats and they are what I consider my babies. Owning an animals is an every day commitment. They keep me going and my favorite part of the day is putting together their "fancy" dishes! I understand the importance of having someone reliable to watch your pet! I have 2 cats who are extremely friendly and welcoming. We have many toys, trees, and perches! I respect any boundaries and rules a client has for their specific baby!

About: Hi I’m Liz and I absolutely love animals! When I was younger I was always wanting to help out any animal I could find. I grew up with cats and a dog but once I got married my husband was allergic to cats so I never got to own my own cat. But I foster dogs on the side! I don’t work with any agencies, I just help certain life or death situations or senior pups who were denied proper care. I currently own 7 dogs ranging from all ages puppy to senior. I also own what most people call “difficult” breeds Akitas, Shibas, huskies, German Shepherds, Pomeranians, and Samoyed! I have a few puppies in training at my house and would love to share my knowledge of dogs with others! If you have training questions I’d love to help you and get you on the right track! I can’t wait to meet your pup! I’m currently working full time but I get off at 3-4pm each day and I am off Saturday and Sunday. I have a lot of wiggle room and would love to accommodate any way I can! I want to care for your pet in the same manner you do! I want your pet to feel like I am a second care human they are close and comfortable with. I will follow your instructions to a “T” so they aren’t left missing you too much! Right now I will only be offering your home for services but maybe some day mine as well :)

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I’ve been watching my friends and my friends families animals for a few years now while they vacation or anything comes up. I’ve done the walking, the repetitive throws back and forth, and the quick check in during a storm just to make sure they haven’t chewed the house to pieces. I’m naturally an early bird so checking in earlier then my normal 6-3ish work schedule isn’t an issue and anytime after I’m usually free I have a fenced in run area for free running if they’d like. My porch is screened in so they can have the outside time without getting out.

About: I have done petsitting since I was 12 for family members and looking to grow my experience. I have also pet-sat for families I nanny for. Currently, I am a student at KSU studying English. I have plenty of time for more work and I miss being around animals! I don’t have any right now. I prefer not to care for pets in my home but it is a quality house for pet-siting and it is very safe for pets

About: Hi! My name is Kimberly, and I’m a reliable, caring pet lover who treats every animal like family. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need an extra hand, I’m here to make sure your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. 💖 About Me I have a strong love for animals and experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. 🐶 Services I Offer * Dog walking (daily or occasional) * Drop-in visits (feeding, playtime, potty breaks) * Overnight pet sitting * Medication administration (if needed) * Basic grooming (brushing, light cleaning) 🏡 Why Choose Me? * Patient, trustworthy, and dependable * Flexible scheduling * Great with pets of all sizes and temperaments * Regular updates with photos/videos so you feel at ease 📍 Availability Available weekdays and weekends. Short notice bookings may be accepted—just ask! 📞 Contact Me Message me anytime to discuss your pet’s needs or schedule a meet-and-greet! Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority 🐾💕 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around being consistent and dependable for the pets I care for. I build in time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins to make sure every pet gets the attention they need. On a weekly basis, I keep my schedule flexible so I can accommodate regular clients as well as last-minute requests. I’m used to balancing responsibilities, so I make sure pets are always a priority and never rushed. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I make time to give each pet proper care, attention, and companionship. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make part of my everyday life. At this time, I’m not offering boarding in my home or overnight stays in clients’ homes. I currently focus on drop-in visits and dog walking, where I can give pets reliable, one-on-one care in their own environment. During each visit, I make sure your pet is fed, has fresh water, gets exercise or playtime, and plenty of attention. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also happy to follow any special instructions, including medications or specific care needs. I respect your home and make sure everything is left clean, safe, and secure. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. As my schedule grows, I may expand my services in the future!

About: If your pet could pick their sitter, I hope they’d pick me! 🐾💕 My love for animals started when I was little, when I found a stray cat on the street, brought her home, and named her Princess. 🐱👑 Ever since then, animals have had a special place in my heart. Most of my experience comes from caring for other people’s pets, and I’ve always treated every fur baby like my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, cuddles, boarding, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’m here for it! ❤️ Basically, I’m the person who says, “I’ll watch your pet,” and then accidentally becomes their favorite babysitter. 😂🐾 Your pet will be safe, loved, spoiled, and treated like family with me! I do have a full-time job, but my schedule is flexible and can vary between daytime and overnight hours. This allows me to provide pet care while still maintaining my work responsibilities. I want to make sure I’m the right fit for both you and your pet, so when you’re interested in booking with me, we can discuss your schedule, your pet’s needs, and what type of care you’re looking for. From there, we can make sure our availability aligns and create a plan that works best for everyone. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while making the experience as convenient and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. 🐾💕 I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, feeding schedule, and individual needs so I can care for them the way they’re used to. I treat every pet like my own, while also respecting their boundaries—especially cats, who definitely have their own personalities! 🐱💕 Whether they want cuddles, playtime, attention, or a little space, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and always prioritize safety. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your fur baby is being cared for, loved, and treated like family while you’re away.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Nelson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 632 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Nelson. 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 Nelson. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
