“Andi, has been an excellent caregiver for Cakes. She went above and beyond to interact with Cakes who is very shy and hides from strangers. Andi also followed our instructions well and checked in each day writing about her visit with Cakes. I hope she will be available next time we need a caregiver for Cakes. We can highly recommend her! I would like to give Andi a $50 tip for her excellent work. SWC”
“Ethan was fantastic for our dogs first day care! At the meet-and-greet he took time to get to know both dogs on a short stroll around the neighborhood and paid careful attention to the instructions. After the first visit Ethan sent a photo of both dogs in the backyard - happy and ready to play. Really appreciate the punctuality and care he put into the details.”
“Rachel has been amazing with Millie. She goes above and beyond. She is a great communicator and takes care of Millie as if she was her own dog. It gives me so much peace to be at work knowing my dog is getting loved on so well by Rachel.”
“Did a great job introducing herself to my shy cat and gave him plenty of attention after he quickly warmed up to her! I could tell from the pictures she sent that my cat was loving her company.”
About: I am a teacher looking to stay busy this summer. I have a dog and 2 cats. I grew up with pets my whole life. I plan on doing this over my summer break. I will have a lot of time to spend time with animals by giving them the exercise they need. I am happy to host at our place. We have a spacious place. I love to stay active and take them out often. I can also go stop by and make sure your animals are loved!
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience with cats and a variety of animals. Over the years, I've cared for everything from iguanas to ferrets and truly enjoy working with animals of all kinds. I currently work part-time, typically during the mornings, which leaves the rest of my day flexible for pet care. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I have a lifelong love of animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. During our meet and greet, I'll take the time to learn about your pet's routine, needs, personality, and any special quirks or preferences. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care that helps your pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away.
“Sandra was great with my shy dog Zig. She was careful to follow my instructions perfectly making sure my cats stayed in while Zig went out to do his business. She updated me immediately sending photos letting me know all was well. I trust her completely and will definitely use her again. She's super conscientious and Zig warmed up to her immediately. Thanks Sandra!”
“Samantha is wonderful! She does kitty check ins while we are away and is always does a very through job. I would recommend her to anyone looking for quality, consistent care for your furry family members.”
“Out of 10, Timea is easily a 100! Professional, prompt, and obviously cares deeply about the pets she's tasked to care for. After initial outreach she was quick to schedule a meet & greet and took copious notes to ensure she understood the job. She kept me updated with thorough Rover card (notes and pics) after every visit. She went above and beyond after a particularly bad weather storm knocked out power at our home to ensure my older cat, Oshi, was warm and comfortable. Pets love her and pet owners should look no further than Timea as their next pet sitter!”
“Brooke took great care of my 3 kitties while I was gone for the weekend! She won over my shy cat too which was great. And she proactively cleaned their food bowls + cleaned up a cat accident on the stairs”
“Erin provided wonderful care for my cats! She has great communication & my babies are lucky to have such a caring sitter. She has a calming and reassuring presence and will win over the shyest of cats. Thank you!”
“Courtney was amazing. She took care of Kiki very well. I felt very comfortable living here with my home and I would hire her again anytime. She was very attentive and even took care of the small details like making sure her box was clean and also making sure there’s a light on if you wanted to. The report were detailed and on time. This was very appreciated.”
About: I am in love with the all animals. I was a kennel assistant for 2 years and I have three pets of my own, 2 Persian cats and a shih tzu dog. I am experienced with Guinea pigs, fish, cats, dogs and other small animals. Your pet will have nothing but the best and most kind and fun experience with me. I am happy to help out so you have no worries while being away ! :) I am currently working hybrid full time eight to three. Weekend work is more ideal for me but I am open to boarding on weekdays. I have professional cat wrangling experience. I can crate your dogs if needed. I have a friendly small dog and cat in my home to help keep yours company. I am here to help take care of your fur babies as needed :)
“Emma did a great job taking care of our kitty while we were away. She was always on time and followed the instructions well. My cat seemed to enjoy her company. Definitely will work with her again.”
“We are so happy with Lorie's help! When we were gone our plans had changed the last minute and we we were in a pinch finding someone. Lorie has agreed to help us right away, and she did a wonderful job taking care of our pets. She had to learn what to do over the phone and did exactly what we had asked her. We have a turtle who needs to be fed in a separate water tank, and he tends to bite when someone sticks their hands in his water. However, that didn't seem to scare Lorie, and she took on the job very bravely. We were very pleased to return to a clean house and happy pets. We highly recommend Lorie to anyone who is looking for a trusted and caring pet sitter.”
“Jeany was so great! My cat seemed to love her! She took a good amount of photos, cleaned up any messes, and had plenty of cuddle time with our gal. Next time we are away she will be my go to, if she is available that is. Thank you for giving us peace of mind Jeany.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Novelty
Eriko and her mom did a fantastic job caring for our cat while we were gone. Their love for animals was apparent right from the beginning when Eriko immediately made friends with our dog and began playing with him. They did a great job watching our cat, who is especially shy. To our surprise, they were petting him almost immediately; which was note worthy given his history as a rescue cat. We received pictures and amusing updates on a daily basis. We arrived home and the house was in great shape and our cat was well taken care of. My wife and I were very pleased, and would definitely use them again. We highly recommend them!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Novelty on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
