“Very happy with my first experience with Rover and having Beth take care of my babies! She is very reliable and followed all the instructions I left. Every day she arrived when promised and spent a good hour with my pets. I was provided reports and pictures to give me great peace of mind. Her communication was thorough and always really fast. I would definitely be happy booking her again in the future!”

“Courteney has dropped in multiple times and for multiple days to care for our elderly cat as we have traveled far and wide. We have never worried about our kitty while we were away and Courteney was on duty. She is extremely dependable, trustworthy, stays in contact regularly, and is sensitive to animals' temperament and moods. I highly recommend her without reservation!”

“This is our second year of having Taylor cat sit for us while on vacation and I just can’t say enough good things. I think our cats behavior says the most about the quality of her care - our least social cat is currently waiting by the door for her at her normal check in time, even though we’re home and he’s been fed and has all of his favorite things. I wouldn’t trust anyone else in my home and with my pets, I cannot recommend her enough! We are so lucky to get to work with her, if you’re in need of a dependable and trustworthy sitter, this is your person.”

She stopped by to meet the cats before our trip so I could go through all the things with her. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you, Rebecca!”

About: Hi there, my name is Natalie, and I’ve been an animal lover since the beginning! I currently have 3 rescues; my dog Will Sniff, and my cats Pepperoni and Pumpkin. I have 8 years of experience with dogs and 3 years with cats. I work best with medium to low energy pets of any size and shape. I work nights so I’m free during the day, and I’m almost always free on weekends too. Since I have pets of my own, I understand the importance of everyone get the love and attention they deserve. I’ve been reading up on body language of cats and dogs to make sure I can anticipate everyone’s moods and actions. I also make sure toys and treats are pet safe and supervise pets during playtime. Pet safety is of the upmost important part of owning animals.

“Amanda did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Buck, while we were out of town! This was our first time using a pet sitter, and she made the entire experience so easy. She was wonderful with Buck and gave him exactly the attention and space he needed to feel comfortable. She kept us updated throughout our trip and gave us so much peace of mind knowing Buck was happy and safe at home. It means a lot to find someone we can trust with our boy, and we will absolutely be using Amanda again for future trips. I highly recommend her! ❤️🐾”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals, and being an animal lover has always been a big part of who I am. I grew up with a dog and two cats and now have a senior dog of my own. I understand the unique needs and personalities of both dogs and cats. Beyond caring for my own pets, I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years. I've also spent much of my adult life volunteering at animal shelters and fostering animals who need a little extra TLC or a break from shelter life. I'm experienced in all aspects of pet care, from walks, playtime, and feeding to providing extra patience and attention when needed. I've cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to sweet seniors, and dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your furry family member is in good hands. I'll treat your pet like one of my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and showered with attention while you're away. I work from home and have a job where I can make my own schedule so it's easy for me to do dog walks or drop-in visits as needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! On walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings, make sure dogs are securely leashed, and let them enjoy their time outside at a pace that’s comfortable for them. If your dog has a favorite walking route or a routine they’re used to, I’m more than happy to stick with it! For drop-in visits, I’ll carefully follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable having someone new in their space. I also know that every pet has their own personality, and some days they may want lots of playtime while other days they just want some company and cuddles. I’m happy to follow their lead and give them whatever love, attention, and care they need!

About: I’ve dog-sat (and house-sat) for friends for a while, and nothing brings me more joy than seeing happy dogs! I love taking them for long walks or runs, spending the day playing with them, and of course giving them plenty of hugs and pets! ❤️🐶 I’m currently working full-time, so during the week I’m available to go on short walks during lunch and make sure your dog is fed and can use the bathroom. I can spend time with them in the evenings as well, and I’m also available for house sitting to keep them company while you’re away! I don’t have any pets of my own at home, but I’ve had plenty of experience caring for pets of friends and family members. I like taking them for walks through neighborhoods or parks where they can meet other dogs or people and see new places!

About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 24 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!

We couldn't be happier that Audrey took care of Gary and Zoya during our 8-day vacation. Especially our girl Zoya, who's always scared of having other people in the house. Audrey won her trust with love and patience, and the photos she sent spoke volumes! Seeing Zoya so comfortable around her gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Recommended!! Will book again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - New Rome

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in New Rome is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $26 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 430 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Rome. 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 Rome. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% 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.
