Mindi was great with my cats! She was very responsive and a good communicator and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in her excellent care, even my special needs kitty. I would absolutely use her services again.

Marion was very responsive, competent, and reliable! I had a great experience hiring her to walk my dog while on vacation visiting Mt. Baker. I only reached out a few days ahead, but she was flexible and very easy to communicate with. I would definitely hire her again!

About: I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for, just like they would with you. I’m reliable, responsible, and love sending picture updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I already set aside time each day for walks, play, and feeding, and I enjoy being outdoors and active. I make sure to plan my schedule so pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so it blends seamlessly into both my daily and weekly routines. In a client’s home, I respect their space and care for pets just as they would, keeping to established schedules, maintaining a familiar environment, and giving them lots of attention and reassurance. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, secure, and loved while their owners are away

About: I've had dogs in my family since I was a baby; I grew up around them and my love for them grew. I care deeply for my own dogs, and I'm always excited to meet a new four legged friend. I regularly petsit for my family, a multitude of dogs, cats, and aquatic creatures. My schedule is currently very flexible; I make time for a walk and training my own dog every day and I sometimes bring him with me when running errands. I love snuggling and hanging out with all kinds of pets, letting them get comfortable with me in their space and touching them at their own pace.

About: I'm in college, studying to be a Veterinary Technician. I've had many types of animals and I've been caring for animals as a way to make money for several years- predominantly dogs. I am free on weekends. I'm usually free on Wednesday and Monday. I'm available at 1pm on Tuesdays, and I'm available on Fridays and Thursdays after 4pm. My cat is indoors, and I make a great deal of effort to keep her that way (she tries to escape a lot). I make sure to keep her happy and entertained, just as I do with my client's pets. When I am in a client's home I ensure adequate care and their animal's safety.

Absolutely love Melissa and Ryan! They really came through for me on a short notice and even helped me with undoing a hitch on my car. They say you find good people everywhere you go, and I definitely found some great ones. My pups loved them and I felt totally safe and trusted them to take care of my girls. Highly recommend!

About: I have 4 years of professional boarding facility experience and am fully trained in administering oral medications, pill pockets, and topical treatments (no injections, please!). I'm an expert at reading animal body language and feel entirely comfortable managing all temperaments, including reactive, anxious, or aggressive pets. I am free anytime for drop in visits or walking your pets! I am a college student so I am only available on the holiday breaks! As a proud dog parent to two pups of my own, I know firsthand that pets aren't just animals—they are cherished members of the family who deserve endless love, patience, and undivided attention. My home is a space built on safety and routine, and I bring that exact same dedicated, protective care to your doorstep. Whether your pet needs a high-energy playmate, a calming presence to soothe their anxiety, or precise medication management, my priority is keeping them safe, secure, and completely comfortable until you return. You can relax knowing your furry family members are being treated with the same deep affection, respect, and vigilant care that I give my own every single day.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with professional experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals of all kinds. I’ve lived on an alpaca ranch and worked at an animal sanctuary where I helped care for alpacas, chickens, goats, and 8 dogs of all sizes and temperaments. From feeding and medication to cleaning and enrichment, I’ve done it all! I’ve been pet-sitting through Rover for over 4 years and have cared for everything from high-energy puppies to senior dogs with special needs. I’m comfortable with crate training, basic commands, giving medication, and customizing care to your pet’s routine. I also have experience with multi-pet households and reactive or shy dogs. At home, I have a small yorkie-schnauzer mix who’s my trusty sidekick and playmate. Whether your dog loves fetch, long walks, the dog park, or just quiet cuddle time, I’ll make sure they feel loved and safe while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to giving your pets the same level of care I’d want for my own. Let’s chat about how I can help your pets feel happy and at home—even when you’re not! My schedule is open right now. I just work evenings and I am finishing my degree online. I am available during the day for walks, loves, adventures and more and I’m available for overnight stays. I can visit your home for drop in visits or walks and I can stay overnight with your pets for overnight bookings. My schedule is open currently.

About: I’ve owned dogs and other pets my whole life, but since opening my own business and having my son I just don’t have time to own a pet full time. So I figured this would be a good way to get to love on other peoples pups when it works for my schedule. I am self employed so my schedule can be semi flexible. I don’t work on the weekends, but I could also potentially bring a dog to my business as well on days that I work, depending on the dog of course. I have a fenced yard, a big field/park right across the street, a dog park a mile away, and a doggy door that could fit a dog up to about 50 lbs. I also own a small salon with accident safe flooring and a space right outside the door for potty breaks if I ever needed to bring a dog to work with me.

About: Living out in the county,I have had and been around animals of all kinds since I was 8. I love taking are of animals and with my current nursing school schedule, sitting has become a great way to make money doing something I enjoy. I am currently attending nursing school which consists of hybrid courses. So it has left me with enough time to be able to care for pets before and after classes. Sitting is a great way for me to make money while also allowing me enough time to study and isn’t as time consuming like a part time job. I do work 12 hour shifts on Saturdays and Sundays though, so I am willing to sit on those days if the owners are okay with them being alone for that long or have other arrangements for them to be let out on those days. I will care for the pets the exact way you want me to. If they need to be crated and let out more frequently, I am willing to make it work. If they can be left out in a fenced in yard and just need to checked on every so often, I can do that too! I’m very flexible as every situation is different!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 393 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Northwood. 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 Northwood. On Rover:

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