“Melanie was fantastic with our two cats! She was reliable, attentive and caring and followed every detail of our care instructions perfectly. She kept our automatic cat boxes and food dispensers refreshed on schedule and even cleaned and recycled the food containers and dealt with the trash. Our kitties were happy to see her even our very shy kitty which gave us peace of mind. We wouldn't hesitate to book Melanie again and highly recommend her to anyone for a very caring cat sitter.”

“We live in Hardwick.Mandy took excellent care of both of my cats. One of my cats has a chronic illness which required that Mandy give him an injection. She has previous vet tech experience so that was no problem at all. Mandy sent me an update with pictures of both cats. She even came to our house before our trip to meet the cats. We would highly recommend her.”

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 25 years and truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Chihuahuas to large breeds, as well as puppies, energetic adults, and senior dogs who require extra patience, medication, or special care. I'm naturally calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet's individual personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest. My goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. As someone who works for myself, I have the flexibility to provide reliable daytime care and give each visit my full attention. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. I treat every pet as if they were one of my own. I work for myself, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable, personalized care for your pets. I'm available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, medication, and companionship. I always do my best to be punctual, reliable, and accommodate your pet's routine. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I believe pets feel most secure when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and any special needs. I'll care for your home with the same respect I would my own, provide regular updates with photos, and treat every pet like a member of my own family.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and have owned dogs, birds, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters and mice. Currently I own 2 cats with my partner named Rebel and Scout. Growing up my family dogs have included lhasa apsos, dandie dinmont terriers, a german shepherd, and a golden lab. I have experience sitting all types of dogs so whether you have a small medium or large dog, i am comfortable with all sizes. I also was an American Kennel Club junior handler for five years and during that time I showed my lhasa apsos. I have assisted with 4 four litters of lhasa puppies and am experienced with house training, puppy training, care etc. If you have any other questions I would be happy to answer them and look forward to the opportunity to become a friend to your precious pets! :) I am currently a homemaker, and am fortunate to have some flexibility! Just let me know the times/days you need. M-F preferred weekends are negotiable! My preference is to take care of pets at clients home. It is difficult to have other animals inside with the cats however I do have a fenced in area in my yard I can offer for them to be in!

About: I work professionally from home, so I can be available for your pets' potty breaks and feedings and make sure they have company during the day. My love for animals started at an early age, and there's nothing I love more than spending time in their company. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and levels of training. I'm an active volunteer at the local animal shelter with dogs and have fostered very many cats and kittens in my home for them over the years. So I can work with the shy, hissy, nervous animals and love them all. I'm committed to providing the best care possible for your pets and know that that can sometimes include administering medication. As long as I'm clear on what, how, and when, I'm comfortable providing this service. I regularly send pictures and updates to help keep your mind at ease and confident that your pet is loving their time with me! I work from home as a manager for a tech company. This means that my schedule is flexible, and I can address food and potty needs around the clock. I work in an office with a door that closes and can keep your pets with me during the day or leave them free to roam the house. My house is on an acre of half-yard, half-woods. I will use a 100-foot lead for your pet any time we’re outside, and hey can explore the woods with me on a leash. I have a XL crate in my office that can be used to house your pet. I also have a dedicated bonus room, where pets that need a more quiet scene can go enjoy the warm, sunny window or the fluffy beds/scratch towers.

“Lily was extremely helpful when my previously booked sitter cancelled at the last minute. She was friendly and able to respect our home's dietary restrictions. She was a lifesaver! My senior car was cared for, and the house was in order upon our return. Lily provided occassional updates on how things were going and a few photos. She always responded quickly to messages despite a time difference. We'd be open to hiring Lily again.”

I do not have a set schedule at work yet so I will have different availability every week.

About: I have worked with dogs all my life. I use to work/help my mom at a kennel at the young age of 7 and our household was always full of dogs! I have had experience with many breeds. I've owned a wide range of dogs: pit bulls, labs, huskies, dash hound, terriers, rottie and pugs. I love to go for long walks, hikes, play fetch, take them swimming. I love to take my dogs out in the field so they can get rid of their energy and run free. If your dog isn’t a runner I would to take them too. I have a very flexible schedule so I could work the times around your needs and times. Dogs are my passion and I can’t wait to babysit yours!

About: early years, my family were training Morgans for the Kentucky Derby. It had been an exhilarating journey, one that beautifully intertwined skill, patience, and a profound bond with these majestic horses. Each horse is unique, deserving of personalized training that not only harnesses their incredible speed and agility but also fosters a deep connection between horse and trainer. As l've grown, my focus has shifted from merely training to cherishing those heartfelt connections, as they truly enrich my life. Alongside my passion for equine training, I find immense joy in the companionship of dogs and cats, nurturing their spirits It’s all I do - besides writing. I chose to step Away from The chaos of the world to care for my own well being by taking care of animals. With respect, kindness and love as I would expect in my own home and with my own pets. Pets bring joy and peace to my life.

About: Hi there! I'm Erin, a dedicated mother and lifelong animal enthusiast. With a heart full of love for all creatures great and small, I've spent most of my adult life volunteering, fostering, and caring for animals. From dogs to cats and everything in between, I've had the pleasure of nurturing and pampering a wide variety of pets. My journey into pet care started years ago when I began volunteering at local animal shelters and fostering dogs and cats in need. Over time, my passion evolved into a profession, and I've been providing top-notch pet sitting and dog walking services ever since. What sets me apart is the personal touch I bring to every interaction. As a mother, I understand the importance of family, and that includes our beloved pets. That's why I love nothing more than including my own children in our pet visits and walks. Your furry companions not only get the care and attention they deserve but also the joy of interacting with a fun-loving family. At home, our household is a bustling hub of activity, filled with the laughter and energy of children. Alongside my small and sociable Jack Russell Terrier mix and clever cat, we create a warm and welcoming environment for pets of all shapes and sizes. With experience caring for various breeds, including the majestic Great Dane, I'm well-equipped to handle the unique needs and quirks of different animals. Whether your pup needs a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or your cat requires some extra TLC while you're away, rest assured they'll be in loving and capable hands with my family. So, if you're seeking reliable and compassionate pet care services that treat your furry friends like family, look no further. Because when it comes to your pets, they deserve nothing but the best! Pet care is not just a job for me—it's my passion and my primary focus outside of being a mom and pet owner myself. With my schedule wide open and dedicated solely to pet care, I have the flexibility to tailor my daily and weekly routine to meet the needs of both pets and their owners. Each day, I prioritize spending quality time with the pets under my care, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need to thrive. Whether it's morning walks, midday visits, or evening cuddle sessions, I'm there to provide personalized care and companionship every step of the way. My wide flexibility allows me to accommodate the unique needs of each pet, whether it's administering medication, adhering to specific feeding schedules, or simply providing extra TLC for pets with special needs. I understand that every pet is different, and I strive to create a routine that caters to their individual preferences and requirements. By limiting my bookings, I can ensure that each pet receives the care and attention they deserve without feeling rushed or overlooked. Whether it's a one-time visit or a long-term arrangement, I'm committed to providing top-notch care that exceeds both pet and owner expectations. In essence, pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it's the heart of my daily life, and I'm dedicated to making sure every pet feels loved, safe, and cherished in my care. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities. With a spacious 3-bedroom home and a large playroom addition, we offer a welcoming and secure environment for your furry friend to feel right at home. Whether your pet prefers the familiarity of their own surroundings or enjoys exploring new spaces, I can be flexible and accommodating to meet their needs. In our home, your pet will have plenty of room to roam and play, whether they're chasing toys, lounging in cozy corners, or enjoying some quality cuddle time. I understand that some pets may feel more comfortable in their own crates, and I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences to ensure they feel safe and secure during their stay. Outside of our home, we love to explore and embrace the great outdoors, making long evening walks around neighborhoods or adventures in the woods a regular part of our routine. Whether your pet enjoys a leisurely stroll or prefers a brisk run, we're committed to providing the exercise and stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it's a staycation in our cozy home or a familiar visit to yours, you can trust our family to provide the personalized care and attention your pet deserves. Because when your pet is with us, they're not just a guest—they're a cherished member of our family

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Nichewaug

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 818 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Nichewaug. 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 Nichewaug. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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 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.
