“Karen is truly the only person who I will not only allow in my house when I'm not around but also watch my motley Crue of 3 senior, a 6 yr old and 1 yr old cats. Always a ton of communication, pics that really show they love and trust her and just above and beyond care of them. They just adore her and I can actually relax knowing they are well taken of as if I was doing it myself. That says volumes about someone coming from me because I'm in the Animal field for 22 years and I expect the care from a sitter as I give my patients!”
“Squeaky and Nemo, here. Our Mommy-Daddy servants went AWOL for 9 days, so they invited this complete stranger to service our godlinesses. We didn't make it easy for Sydney, but after a couple of days we decided she was a major step up on our usual Mommy-Daddy servants. She came like clockwork every morning to clean and refill our dishes, scoop our litter, have the honor of petting and scritching us, and serve as our human couch. Of course we played with her as well, because servants become dull if not exercised daily. Unfortunately Mommy-Daddy came home, but we look forward to human-sitting her the next time our servants go missing. We highly recommend Sydney, if your parental units are similarly prone to failure.”
“Margaret took extended care of my fur-babies while I was away. She made me feel at ease leaving them in her capable hands. Margaret loves your animal like you do and does a terrific job!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I was always the one to clean up after them and ensure they had new toys and a clean space to enjoy. I am currently working part time and off Fridays. I would like to earn some extra cash to continue growing my daughters savings so she can get a good education. I have a fenced in yard. I currently have 3 dogs and a fish and a toddler. When walking my dogs, I usually take all 3 and make sure I am aware of my surroundings due to have frenchies I am always extra cautious.
About: I’ve lived with and helped care for dogs since I can remember, and cats for the past decade now.

I hold a passion for animal safety and care, and believe that will show in my work. In our household I am an active participant in pet care. Typically I am involved in feeding both cats and dogs, taking dogs outside as needed, helping clean litter boxes as needed, etc; most often on a daily basis. In addition to the typical pet care information already provided, I take great care in providing a safe and fun environment for our pets. That includes playing with both the dogs and cats, taking our dogs on walks, etc. Overtime, our household has gotten to where we are now with 3 dogs and 4 cats total. I’ve come to learn and appreciate all of their individual quirks and personalities, and that only helps me care for them better. I look forward to meeting and getting to know your pets as well!

“Peter took wonderful, attentive care of my two Cats, dropping in for an hour each day to play, pet, groom, tidy-up, and keep them company while I was away.

He also listened carefully to my priorities and preferences and sent detailed communications daily. An all-around great guy that I'd trust with any animal and recommend to any friend and neighbor!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Old Orchard
I was unexpectedly admitted to the hospital. Sara was already booked and we had met as I had planned to go away. She modified the booking x2 and my girls seemed happy. There were a few items we reviewed that I felt could be improved and Sara appreciated the feedback. I will use Sara again and hope to give her 5 stars.
Amber is the kind of sitter you hope to find but rarely do—clinically competent, deeply attentive, and immediately trustworthy. We were in a genuinely stressful, last-minute situation involving travel complications, a sitter cancellation, and a medically fragile cat who required multiple daily medications. Amber stepped in calmly and professionally and put us at ease from the start. Her veterinary background was immediately apparent—not only in how confidently and correctly she administered medications, but in the quality of her observations and judgment. Her updates were meticulous and genuinely reassuring. She consistently reported on appetite, litter box habits, behavior, breathing, and overall demeanor, with a level of detail that reflected both clinical knowledge and real attentiveness. She handled a nervous, medication-averse cat with patience and skill, never forcing interactions and always prioritizing his comfort and safety. Amber also went above and beyond with practical care—cleaning dishes, tidying feeding areas, checking doors and lights, and making sure everything was exactly as it should be before leaving. Her communication was impeccable: punctual arrival and departure notices, clear explanations of what was done, thoughtful questions when appropriate, and precise adherence to instructions. In a situation where trust truly mattered, Amber earned ours completely. We would book her again without hesitation and recommend her without reservation, especially to anyone with cats who require medical care or a sitter with true clinical competence and excellent judgment.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Old Orchard is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $36 per visit. On Rover, 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.

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.
