“Anita was so great with our geriatric cat Pumpkin! She accommodated all of his needs and went above and beyond. She even left a bird video on YouTube so that he could be entertained while we were gone 😊 (we told her he loved bird videos). We would 100% use Anita again for our cat-sitting needs!”
“Jessica was amazing! She was very good with communicating with me and she was so excited to meet our babies. She sent helpful updates. I would absolutely recommend her and we will be using her services again!”
About: I have always had a pet, and was a dog groomer for two years, as well as became certified. I worked at a pet store for 3 years! I am available 24/7 for pet sitting. They will never be left alone in my care, as well as going on walks whenever you’d like! My cat is my baby so I completely understand how loved your pets are, and will be sure to give them the same amount of love.
“Rachel is great! She was so easy to work with and even arranged a meet and greet before her first visit. Couldn’t recommend more and really eased my nerves when I had to leave my fur baby for the first time!”
“Rachel is phenomenal. If I could give more than 5-stars I would! Always in communication with fact filled, fun updates and photos! My kitty is wary of new people but Rachel got Millie to come out of her shell instantly. I cannot think of a better person to entrust with the care of a furry friend. Rachel is the best!!”
“This is my 3rd or 4th time booking Kennedy to look after my cats. She is so reliable, kind, and I know they are in good hands and happy while I’m gone.”
“Christi was amazing with our pets (17 year old cat and aquatic turtle). Our cat Leaux had a wonderful time playing with Christi and her string. We enjoyed seeing all of the daily pictures she sent of the pets. The cat even looked like he was playing like a kitten again. It was obvious based on the cat's behavior when we retuned he was not stressed at all while we were away. Christi is 5+ Stars for us as she cared for our pets as if they were her own!”
“Taylor is great with our dog and she communicates so well from the time of booking to post visits. She also has been available last minute when we desperately needed help. Highly recommended Taylor!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I’ve cared for dogs for years through personal and professional experience. I’ve worked for multiple veterinary offices, taken vet tech courses, and worked at PetSuites, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m patient, dependable, and I’ll treat your pet like one of my own. IMPORTANT: For boarding, I want every pet to have a safe and comfortable stay, so I do have a few requirements. Pets must be house trained, comfortable with children (preferably around young children daily), and owners must provide a crate for overnight stays if their pet is crate trained or may need one for safety and rest. I’m unable to accept unspayed or unneutered pets at this time. I also ask owners to leave clear written instructions for feeding, medications, routines, and any behaviors or special needs so I can provide the best care possible. For house sitting, I will be there most of the day but if I have to leave for anything I will be doing so. I also will not be spending the night as I have a child under the age of 2. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I can work with your pet’s usual routine as much as possible. I know how important consistency is, so I’ll make sure they get lots of care, attention, potty breaks, and love while you’re away. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you leave. I’m respectful of your home, attentive to your pet’s needs, and I’ll make sure they get lots of love, patience, and care while you’re away.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently own a 7 year old shepherd lab mix and a rescue Yorkie mix (age unknown but at least 5 years old). I grew up with dogs and have experience with many breeds and many mixed breeds. I have experience with oral medications and special needs as well. I live on a small hobby farm and own a horse, 2 mischevious goats, a couple kitties and some chickens along with my 2 rescue dogs. I grew up on a farm and have taken care of many farm animals as well as house pets. I am currently working from home and would love an opportunity to meet and help others with their pets while they are away from home.
About: Ive worked in the vet field as an assistant and receptionist for over 20 years now. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and have experience medicating. I work side by side with trainers so I am very comfortable and knowledgeable on behavior as well. I do work full time, if needed I can do potty breaks on my lunch break however some of my shifts are short only 5 to 6 hour days. I work 1 Saturday per month but only until noon. I have lots of time in between my full time job. I have a large fenced in yard ans crates if needed. I have 5 small senior dogs that ignore eachother and get along well/ignore other friendly dogs. I live in a small ranch size home so there are no stairs, other then to walk out the back door. Im home unless im working, spending time with my own babies. No children, just me and my husband who is also a dog lover.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always been the one to take them on walks, feed them, and even give them baths if needed I’m currently in school right now and have time to spare so I could definitely help you out! I love being around animals a lot I have two big dogs and have grown up with dogs my whole life. I can always put them in a cage if needed !
About: Personally have had 2 animals of my own and have taken care of others in the past. Animals have always bee n a passion of mine! I am very flexible. I work Monday-Friday from 9-3. Short days which would give me plenty of time to spend with your furry friend! I will have plenty of time to make sure they get all of their energy out! I make sure the pets are given all of the love and support they are needed to be happy in an unfamiliar environment. If they have a routine that you would like them to stick to I will do my best to make sure we continue to follow that routine!
“Deanna was super professional and caring for my medically complicated pup. She was super responsive when booking and sent tons of photos for our drop in visit. Will definitely use again!”
About: For years I’ve walked, fed, and played with peoples pets in the times they need some extra help! Hoping to help you the same way! I’m currently a returning college student, my availability is Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays, as well as weekends. I am pretty available any time of the day right now and happy to care for your pet! I strive to respect your rules you have for your pets and your home! I want to keep your pet safe on walks and inside.
“Jenna was an absolute lifesaver. I've never used a service like this and was just fumbling through the process. We've never left our adolescent rescue cats alone before and wanted to make sure they didn't feel anxiety/abandoned. Jenna was so good with them. Our male cat immediately gave his seal of approval so I knew she was the perfect fit. I would absolutely book her again. Thanks so much for being such a caring and professional sitter.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Albany
We have been getting Anita to take care of our cats for repeated occasions when we have been out-of-town. She has taken wonderful care of our cats! She has been flexible when we have had to add on visits at the last minute. This last time, we had to ask her to also take care of our dogs, who we usually board, but were unable to this time. She was willing to accommodate them and took wonderful care of them as well!
Christi has watched our senior cat 3 times now! She is fantastic. We get great updates and pictures. Most importantly when we return we know he has been well cared for because of how he interacts with us. He has quality play time and stimulation. If you are thinking about booking Christi do it! You won't regret it!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in New Albany on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,278 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Albany. 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 New Albany. On Rover:

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.
