“Matt was a great cat sitter. He is very professional, courteous, and prompt. He sent me multiple pictures of my cat during his drop-in visits. The cat’s feeding area and the litter box were clean/tidy when I returned home. I would definitely use Matt again.”

It was such a relief to have someone we trusted taking care of our kitties while we were out of town and we absolutely would book visits with Summer again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and cared for them for the last 4 years. I am 19 years old and extremely active, I love runs and long walks and playing with all types of pets. I’m responsible and will take very good care of your pets. Im currently working part time and have plenty of time to check in and stay over to care for pets. I work some nights and am usually back home before 8. I live and work by two simple rules, treat your house as if it were my own and to leave everything better than I found it.

“This is 3rd booking with Alexis for the care of two outdoor kitties. I am not sure what special kitty magic Alexis possesses, but our very shy and nervous kitty, Jigsaw, is getting more comfortable with her. Alexis communicates well, and of course the pictures of Jigsaw are appreciated much! Not to leave Casper out, I love those too!”

“My regular pet sitter cancelled a week before my trip so I went on Rover and found Ellie. She is very responsible and took good care of my cats. She is quickly responsive to texts and made sure to leave the house in good shape for my return. My cats looked calm and well cared for upon my return. I would recommend Ellie to anyone needing a pet sitter.”

“Rachel was a great pet sitter for our kitty, Bandit!! Rachel was very responsive and communicative which made her meeting Bandit, going over Bandit's care, and getting keys, etc., all easy and seamless! It is clear she loves and understands pets very well. We were away for over 2 weeks and Rachel came for daily visits during that time - she sent photos and updates each day and it was clear that Bandit was very happy and well cared for. Upon our return everything was is good order and Bandit greeted us with a kitty "smile"! We highly recommend Rachel, and hope to have her care for Bandit when we next need kitty care!”

“Indigo was absolutely amazing! I had daily updates about how my sweet bunny was doing and was sent multiple pictures each day. Indigo gave me updates about how my bunny was getting more comfortable and when I came home he did zoomies around the room letting me know how happy he was this week. I felt so safe and comforted knowing he was so well taken care of. Will definitely be rebooking in the future for my bunny as well as my dog if I leave her next time!!”

“Alex was great!! This was my first time booking a sitter through Rover and I was a little nervous but he went above and beyond for me and the kitties. Everyday he sent lots of great photos and detailed summaries of each visit. Two of my kitties are very shy but my very sociable son absolutely loves Alex. He told me his vibes are good lol. The whole time Alex was very communicative and overall really great. I’m sad I’m moving away soon or else I would totally book Alex again & again. I would recommend him to anybody that needs a pet sitter, you can really tell just how much he loves animals. Thank you Alex!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve cared for my own for over 20 years, including through aging, illness, lots of meds and treatments. Able to care for any age or size and have experience with oral and subcutaneous meds for cats and oral meds for dogs. I’m currently working from home, so I’m available throughout the day and also anytime after 5pm - weekdays and weekends. So, available for drop-ins, pet sitting in my house or yours (as long as you have WiFi), walks, etc. Happy to care for your pet(s) in my home or yours. No fenced in yard at my place right now, but in a great walkable neighborhood. I’ll treat your fur babies like they were my own!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and started helping care for them as a kid, everything from feeding and walks to training and cuddles. Since I turned 20, I’ve been professionally dog sitting and have cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Growing up with dogs taught me early on how to connect with them, understand their needs, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently available most days of the week and am flexible with scheduling, so I can easily adapt to you and your pup’s routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just providing company and comfort, I genuinely enjoy every moment spent with dogs and treat them like part of the family. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and started professionally pet sitting in my early 20s, so I know how important it is for your pup to feel comfortable and safe in their own home. Whether I’m caring for a high-energy puppy or a slow-moving senior, I bring patience, love, and plenty of attention to make sure they’re happy while you’re away. I always do my best to stick to your dog’s routine and keep things clean and respectful in your home—like a familiar, trusted friend stepping in when you need an extra hand.

About: I have 4 years of professional animal care experience, and have grown up around dogs and cats. I’ve provided care for dogs, cats and reptiles. I’m comfortable working with animals with special needs. I currently work full-time on week days from 8-4. If you live within 10 minutes of West Asheville I am able to provide bathroom breaks every 4 hours. If you live further out, I can provide breaks every 8 hours. I have a decent amount of flexibility in my schedule and I have no pets of my own, so all of my attention can be on your fur babies!! I can’t currently offer boarding in my home as my roommate has a dog, but I am happy to come to your house. If needed, I can provide plant care during my stay, and will ensure you come home to a clean house and happy animals.

“Bradly did a great job watching our two dogs while we were out of town for a few days. We had him drop in 3 times a day. He arrived promptly at the designated times, fed, walked and played with our pups. He is very kind and responsive giving us comfort that they were getting the attention they need. Our English Springer Spaniel is full of energy and Brad was able to give him the play time fetching sticks to burn off some of his energy. We live on a few acres so having someone that is also active was important to us. We trusted Bradly with our home and pets and would definitely use him again.”

About: I've taken care of just about every animal since I was born. Especially cats and dogs but I've also taken care of reptiles, fish, chickens, rats, gerbils, hamsters, and even bugs. I've handled difficult dog breeds including pitbulls and preydriven rottweilers in a cat home. I am also not shy to pee or poop or any sick pets as I've been in and out of the vets offices as well. Im looking to possibly make this full time. So I am available just about whenever you need me to be there. This includes weekends as well. I am very pet friendly and enjoy being interactive no matter the species. Whether it's letting the crickets run so the bearded dragon can get some exercise or walking the puppy around the yard.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Old Fort on Rover is $31 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $35 per visit. 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.

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 Old Fort. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
