“Lauren is simply the best! This was my second time booking with her, and I am so glad and grateful that I did. She did such a wonderful job taking care of my cat over the holidays (and sent a wealth of photos and updates, which helped us cope with being away for so long). My cat was so calm and well-adjusted when we returned home — she clearly loves Lauren! She’s our favorite cat-sitter, hands down. Thank you, Lauren!”
“Cynthia took care of my elderly cat who has medical needs while I was away on vacation. She was professional, caring, and dependable. She was excellent at keeping in communication and providing me with updates so that I could relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that my cat was in capable hands. I highly recommend her and would hire her in the future!”
“Andrea did such an amazing job with my kitties! One needs oral meds plus one rubbed into his ear each day, and one needs eye drops. She was able to do it from day 1! The cats loved her and she got great photos of them and sent detailed summaries each day. Will definitely happily book her again if an opportunity arises.”
“Olivia is fantastic! Our cat was sick this time when she cared for him, and she took that in stride and provided great updates while we were gone. I’m always so appreciative of her care!”
About: I've been a pet owner since I was a kid! I really enjoy animals, particularly dogs, and have cared for all manner of animals in my life. I work on a school-year schedule, so aside from caring for my own kiddos I can be flexible during the summer months to make sure that your animals have the care they need. I will make sure your pets are well-cared for, well-walked, well-watered, and happy for your return home. I am open and receptive to any specific care requests you may have.
“Alex did an amazing job with Roscoe! We are very happy with her services. She also filled in last minute and was super flexible and professional. We will definitely be contacting her again. Thanks, Alex!”
“Kate was wonderful with my pets. She really put in the effort to spend extra time playing with them, keeping them happy, and sending me updates with pics. They were well taken care of. Kate was very professional and reliable. I recommend Kate to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was really nervous to try it. We have a senior dog that doesn’t travel well and we usually have people come stay or check in on him, but none of them could do it. I searched Rover for people who had good reviews and repeat customers. Leilani agreed to help last minute and it was much appreciated. She checked on our senior guy twice while we were gone overnight, took care of his diaper, and cleaned up any messes he had. She also fed him. She sent pictures and communicated any problems. It looks like he didn’t want to get out of bed so she brought his food to him for one of the feedings, which was a super sweet way to make sure he got food. We would hire her again.”
“We are so grateful to have found Michelle! She went above and beyond to help us over the holiday weekend. She is so kind. Upon meeting her, I instantly felt at ease leaving our pets in her care!”

“Vienna watched our cat while we were gone over spring break. She did a great job! She showed up when she said she would, took care of the tasks needed, and our cat was happy. We'd hire Vienna again!”
About: I have spent lots of time with a family dog and have been a sitter for several breeds over the years, often through friends and family. I am always over the moon to meet and spoil (to the owners comfort) a new furry freind! I am currently a graduate student which allows me the flexibility to schedule quality walks and play time with your pups! I typically work from home 50% of the work week, so getting out for a walk in between computational work is a win win! As a dog walker I will make sure your pup has a positive high quality walking experience. If I am sitting, I will ensure all fur babies get the level attention and care they need to feel safe and happy.
About: My experience of caring for pets has started since I was a child taking care of family pets and later getting my own animals. In a professional setting I have been a Vet Tech for 9 years and done house sitting and dog walking for 5 years. During this time I have worked with everything from puppies, to diabetic cats. I also have limited experience working with large animals and farm animals. Needless to say working with animals is a passion of mine. At the moment I work full time as a vet tech which can cause me some weird hours. Despite this I would love to spend my free time caring for your pet. Feel free to message me and see if we can work out a time! Caring for pets in your house is completely up to you. I will follow your instructions for how to properly care for your furry family member and do everything in my power to keep them safe. Even though I work full time I would love to take the time before and after work to drop in and check on your kitties. They tend to get my morning attention and evening attention with just work getting in the way during the day. I care for the clients home by making sure that all of your requirements are met. So whatever you need from me to make everything as comfortable as possible I will do my best to accommodate you.
About: Hello! My name is Darrion. I work at a veterinary hospital full time as a vet tech. My boyfriend Jake works from home full time so someone is always home. My passion is taking care of animals and working with them. I live in a home that has a fenced yard. We will offer lots of play time. We have lots of dog toys lying around. I have experience giving medications/vaccinations, working with special needs dogs, and working with senior dogs. I have a lot of experience with pets that have health issues as well. I will do whatever it takes for your baby to be happy and have a great time. Any special requests? I will try to fulfill them! I want your pet to feel like they're at home and I'll do whatever I can to make them feel that way! I work full time Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. Off Thursdays. Work one Saturday a month. When I'm off work, I'm available to be with your pet the entire day. When I'm at work, I'm unfortunately not available to be with your pet until I'm off work. BUT my boyfriend Jake works from home so he will be with your pet all day. My pets have free roam of my house at all times, even when I'm not home. If your pet is good free roaming at all times, even when someone isn't home, I'll definitely let them do that. If you prefer them to be in a crate when no one is home, I can do that. All pets are allowed on the furniture. I treat your pets as if they're my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Northfield on Rover is $32.1 per visit (as of June 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 .
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
