“Krissy did a fantastic job with our sweet Grayson. She was very attentive, sent us pics each day and even brought up a concern about Grayson not using the litter box. I would highly recommend her to anyone with pets, especially cats as I am biased in that way. We will use her again and again and again.”

“Amanda was incredible! She came and hung out with my cat and sent me multiple photos each time she came. She even came to check on him after a storm to see if he was okay. I would definitely book with her again.”

About: I have always lived in a multi-animal household. I was raised by two animal lovers, and have had the honor of caring for several cats and dogs until their final days. Currently, I have a 3 year old, 11 year old, and 13 year old cat and two 11 year old dogs. I have also been pet sitting for neighbors since 2021, and been a foster since 2025. I am patient and willing to give your pet any special attention they may need due to age, a medical condition, or fear/behavioral issues. I do want you to know that if your dog likes to go on a lot of walks, I’m unfortunately not the sitter for you. I have a mobility disability. I am happy to play with your dog with their toys or supervise them as they run around your yard, but I am not able to take them on walks to get their energy out. But if you have a puppy that likes to “wrassle” or rough-house a little, that I’m happy to do! I’m a work-from-home (or wherever there’s internet) attorney. I may need to leave for like half the day to attend a hearing or a mediation. But besides that, I can’t think of any foreseeable reason I’d have to leave your pet alone for more than six hours. I am very willing to take things slow and work at your pet’s pace. I do not have any specialized training, but I have worked with dogs and cats with past trauma. I have laid on the ground for three hours just to show a dog I’m not a threat and they can approach me. And she eventually did, and the rest of the week went great. I am also willing to visit your house, possibly multiple times, to meet your pet and allow them to get comfortable with me before your travel.

About: I work from home Monday - Friday so your lovable friend will be consistently monitored, I have a two story home with three bedrooms however it’s just my husband and I with our three cats so lots of space, I also have a fenced in backyard and live in a walkable neighborhood in Cumberland Indiana if your pet needs to be walked. ☺️ I’ve had several years of hands-on experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities, including shy, independent, high-energy, and more strong-willed (‘spicy’) temperaments. My experience comes from raising and caring for my own three cats, each with very different needs and behaviors. I’ve worked closely with rescue cats and understand the patience and consistency required to help them feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. I’m very attentive to body language and behavioral cues, which allows me to adjust my care style to each pet’s comfort level. In my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment. I have the ability to separate pets if needed, making it ideal for animals who are shy, anxious, or prefer their own space. I prioritize cleanliness, routine, and safety at all times. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care for pets throughout the day. I have several automatic feeders and scheduled wet food times, along with fresh water bowls, so meals are always on time. My husband also comes home at the same time each day, providing extra hands and supervision to ensure pets feel safe and attended to. Our home has a predictable routine, which helps cats feel comfortable and secure. I’m able to adjust playtime, attention, or quiet time to match each pet’s personality, whether they prefer independent relaxation or interactive enrichment. My home is a calm, secure space for pets, located in a safe neighborhood. It’s just my husband, our three cats, and me—no kids—so the environment is quiet and low-traffic. I have multiple rooms available to help cats adjust comfortably, so shy or independent pets can have their own space, while those who enjoy company can stay nearby in my home office while I work. Caring for my own three cats gives me firsthand experience with multi-cat dynamics, and I know how to manage interactions to ensure all pets feel safe and stress-free. I maintain a clean, structured environment with consistent routines, monitored feeding and hydration, and lots of attention to comfort and enrichment. Whether your pet needs quiet personal space or friendly companionship, I tailor their care to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you’re away.

About: I have had pets since I was a child. I have rescue cats and doggos. My dog and cat are seniors. Every pet deserves a healthy and loving home. I have experience administering medication as one of my rescues was epileptic and needed daily meds and eye drops. I do have professional experience working for a dog daycare!! I love animals and will always advocate for those precious innocent souls that don’t have a voice. I work part time at a doggy daycare, I’m also a part time RBT working with children and young adults. Due to an inconsistent schedule as an RBT, I’m looking forward to being able to help care for animals. There is a space for doggies to walk around. No fence so they will stay on a leash and always be attended to and watched. There is a large park across the street that is perfect for walks and large trees to provide plenty of shade.

About: I was a Rover caregiver for several years, then I adopted a rescue who is reactive to other dogs and had to stop boarding/sitting. I missed interacting with all the great pets I met, so I'm back in action for drop-in visits and walks on weekends. I've been caring for friends' and family pets for almost 30 years. I'm typically very good with anxious/shy dogs, and I'm not squeamish about dogs who give lots of slobbery kisses LOL I work full-time Monday through Friday, so I'm available for drop-in visits and walks on the weekends or on holidays when I have the day off from work. When doing walks or drop-in visits, I follow my clients' instructions, and have no problems with feeding or administering medications. I also let your pets set the pace and give them space & time needed to get used to me being in their space.

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart! Being a pet owner myself, with a few dogs of my own, I’ve learned that every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines. I’m passionate about providing dependable, loving care that makes both pets and their owners feel comfortable. Whether your furry friend needs an energetic walk, some fun playtime, extra attention, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m here to help! I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to the little details that make each pet unique. I believe pets are family, and they deserve to be treated that way! My goal is to build lasting relationships with pets and their owners while making every visit a positive experience. 🐶🐱💗 I’m currently a high school student completing my classes online from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your furry friends! 🐾💕 Since I’m home throughout the day, I can easily make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I also have a dog named Lilly and a bunny named Sage, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday routine! I love spending time with animals and would be happy to make your pets part of my day! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! 💗 As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are in good hands. I have a dog named sage and a bunny named lily, so I’m familiar with the responsibility, patience, and attention animals need. I make sure pets have fresh water, proper meals, a clean environment, and plenty of love! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all instructions and routines. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to send pictures and updates to give you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐶🐱🐾

“Nouha was wonderful with our kitties! She was communicative, professional, and reliable throughout her visits. We especially appreciated the extra photos and updates, and it was clear that she took the time not just to take care of the cats’ basic needs, but to give them some attention and affection while we were away. The house was clean and everything was in order when we returned, which was an added bonus. It gave us great peace of mind knowing the kitties were in such good hands. We’d definitely be happy to have Nouha care for them again!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life — I grew up around dogs, cats, and pretty much every pet in the neighborhood, so being around them just feels like home. I started pet sitting for family and friends when I was young, and it kind of grew from there through word of mouth, which honestly means the world to me. I genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means keeping up with a high-energy pup or just sitting quietly with a pet who needs some company. Every animal has their own personality, and getting to know that is honestly my favorite part of the job. My schedule is super flexible — honestly, anytime works for me. I'm self-employed, so I have the freedom to be available whenever your pet needs me, whether that's early mornings, evenings, weekends, or last-minute bookings. No 9-to-5 restrictions here! Your pet will never feel like they're being squeezed into a busy schedule — they'll always have my full attention. When I'm in your home, I treat it like my own — with respect, care, and a lot of love for your pet. I follow whatever routine your pet is used to because consistency matters, especially when you're away. I'm not just popping in to check a box — I'm fully present, keeping things comfortable and familiar so your pet barely notices you're gone. Your home and your fur baby are in good hands.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and currently care for two cats and a 13-year-old black lab, so I understand the different needs pets have at every stage of life. Caring for a senior dog has given me experience with daily medications, supplements, patience, and maintaining consistent routines to keep pets comfortable and happy. I also have experience pet sitting for friends and family, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I recently graduated from PA school and have a flexible summer schedule while preparing for my certification exam and pending licensure. This gives me plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care throughout the day. I’m reliable, organized, and able to accommodate a variety of routines, whether that includes walks, drop-ins, feedings, or simply keeping pets company and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, make sure pets are fed, walked, and cared for on schedule, and give them plenty of attention and comfort while you’re away. I also keep the space clean and make sure everything is secure so you can feel at ease knowing your pets and home are in good hands.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - New Palestine

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in New Palestine is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $27 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 387 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Palestine. 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 New Palestine. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
