“Marissa took great care of my Pluto and Damien. She sent me some great pictures when I was away so that I knew they were being taken care of, and they were clearly well fed and watered while I was gone. She is easy to communicate with as well, and she will be visiting my cats away when I am away for a longer trip. Highly recommend!!”
“Gillian watched my dog for a couple days and did a great job! She always sent an update and pictures and even cleaned up an accident that occurred. We would hire her back in a heartbeat and 100% recommend!”
“I can’t say enough great things about her care and dedication to our four legged babies. She was attentive, responsive, and very sweet. A true animal lover that my Bandit and Whiskey were instantly attached to. It made going on vacation a lot easier knowing she was there with them. I highly recommend her services.”
“Kelly does a wonderful job with our cats. She is very reliable, follows instructions and plays with our cats while she is at our house to feed them and clean their litter. Highly recommend!”
“So grateful to have found Courtney! She met with Faithful and I and listen to all I had to share with her. Faithful was happy to meet her and enjoyed her visit too. 🙂 I appreciate Courtney with her genuine care for Faithful and my needs and scheduling. I felt comfortable with her in my home and caring for my Faithful and will be happy to have her again and again. She is a true blessing to us! Thank you Courtney!”
About: Hi! My name is Sydney and I've regularly walked my neighbors' dogs since I was 12. That role made me the go-to pet sitter for most of the households on my block! I've taken care of senior dogs over the age of 14, puppies, cats and kittens. At home, I have a cat and two dogs myself (a lab and a cavapoo). I work a hybrid job and can regularly check-in and be present with your pets! If you board with me, my pet-loving family is happy to play with your pup all day long as well! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs and one cat, so your dog needs to be friendly with other dogs. My cat is very good with dogs and my two dogs are friendly as well.
“Kaela was great! My cat is a little shy around new people but warmed up to Kaela very quickly. She took excellent care of my cat while I was away and sent detailed updates and plenty of pictures.”
“Rachel is fantastic! Our little Charlie took to her immediately, she has a beautiful way with animals and they know it. She is trustworthy and dependable - we highly recommend!”
“Christina did a wonderful job checking in on my kitty every day and giving her some attention. By the end of the visits, my cat really warmed to her, which shows how great she is with pets! I would definitely recommend Christina to anyone with anxious or shy kitties especially.”
About: I’m all about attention. Giving attention and connecting and being aware of a dogs needs is everything to caring for them and helping them feel safe and loved. I’m retired and active so I’m flexible and available. If possible I will adjust my schedule to care for a pets needs across the board. I’m attentive to their need for play and rest and I’m focused on compassion and care. Dogs love schedules and whether food driven or play or connection and care, I adjust and take full responsibility for making their life better.
“Brittney helped me out on a last minute pinch, and helped me out with my 2 dogs with drop ins! She went above and beyond with my pups and they were well cared for and I will for sure be reaching out again!”
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets since I was a kid! I have 2 cats of my own and can’t wait to take care of your pets! Pet care is a never ending job! I have a flexible work schedule working as a nurse and have plenty of time to give your pets the love and care they deserve! I keep a clean home and intend to do the same for yours as well as light house cleaning chores if needed! I am happy to help out where needed!
“Susan is amazing! Super reliable and just all around an awesome person that loves dogs! I will most certainly use her again in the future. Thanks again for taking care of Riley!”
“Shannon was absolutely wonderful with my cats. She always went above & beyond and treated my cats like they were her own. She sent pictures of them every time she dropped in on them and was a great communicator. During and after every drop in visit, Shannon always sent pictures and let me know how the cats were doing. How they looked, acted and responded to her being there. I felt very secure knowing my cats were being taken care of by her.”
“My cats were in good hands with Brandon! He was punctual, checked in to make sure he was following their dinner routine as closely as possible, and sent plenty of pictures when I was missing my furbabies on vacation.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Light
Gillian was great with our two cats! The moment I met her I was comfortable with her being in my home. She’s sweet, kind, and truly loves all animals! I have already recommended her to family members! Thank you Gillian, you’ll be hearing from us in the future!❤️
We have used Rover for over 10 years and Rachel is the absolute gold standard. She uses the entire duration of her visit and sends detailed notes as well as mapping our dog's walks. Our pets are very comfortable with Rachel and we're grateful for the detailed attention, care, and kindness with which she looks after them and creates her well documented check-ins. During our most recent booking, Rachel was incredibly flexible with us when we had an emergency while traveling that extended our stay beyond our initially booked appointments. When that extended stay meant the waste bags we provided ran out she not only brought her own for the rest of the additional visits but actually left us two full extra rolls. She truly goes so far above and beyond and we'll always book with Rachel whenever we have the chance!
We are so happy that we found Marissa to check in on our sweet cat Spooky while we were away. I’m usually very nervous, and we were going to be very far away for over a week, but after meeting Marissa, we were both very comfortable and confident that Spooky would be in good hands. We looked forward to the photos Marissa sent us each day of Spooky playing, and we returned to a happy and healthy kitty. Thank you for your efficient communication and for taking wonderful care of our baby!
Shannon is sweetest angel ever. When we were away few days for Xmas, she took care of our gentleman, and she made our kitten feel loved. She followed all the instructions that we gave her and more. I’ll definitely stay in contact with her for future bookings. Thanks Shannon💖

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in New Light on Rover is $25.5 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,608 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Light. 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 Light. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
