Alivia was prompt in responding to all my texts and, when I met her, I immediately sensed her love of animals. I greatly appreciated the pictures she sent of my fur babies while I was away. Alivia was trustworthy and I would not hesitate to reach out to her again in the future.

Nicole is a really kind and caring person. I definitely felt at ease with her caring for my cat while I was gone. She’s responsible and communicative and went above and beyond for me. I will be using her services again, for sure.

About: I’ve took care of dogs of all kinds ever since I could remember, cats too! I’ve helped many many liter of puppies and raised them! I also worked at Paws and Claws which is a doggy daycare and boarding! I can very well sense personality and what they need! I treat them like members of a family and never let them go without care. I’m currently going to college and looking for a part time job, but will always make time for your furry friend, and would be willing to move things around! I currently have a dog who loves to play and a husky who is full of energy! And two cats who are just cuddle bugs, we have a park near by so we can go play, and I can easily crate your dog if needed and have plenty plenty of toys!

Emily is amazing! Our dogs were quite nervous having someone come to the house for the first time to check on them, and she gave them all the time and pets they needed to get comfortable. This was an overwhelming positive first experience for us. Thanks Emily!

Dylan is a great find! it takes a brave soul with skills to take on a rambunctious energetic GSD with her greyhound friend Trinity and her side kick Pepper. Dylan did it all with skill, and knowledge and most of all caring and compassion. I was so relieved to have him at the house caring for this crew!

About: I have taken care of and owned dogs my entire life. My home has never been without one. I have had cats for several years now as well. I am currently a student with a lot of time on my hands and know the feeling of worrying about someone taking care of your pets when needed. I have an open yard because of how close to the woods we live and not many neighbors either. I can crate your dog if necessary.

About: I had 2 dogs growing up and have experience with various breeds through my work and schooling. I am educated on assessing body language and handling aggression, excitement, etc. I have extensive experience with cats, and take care of multiple cats both at work and those belonging to relatives. I work full time at an animal hospital, so I will be available after work hours most days during the week, but am mostly free on weekends! I can arrive early depending on the travel distance and stay late— whatever you need I am open to discussing! As I do not board animals in my own home, your comfort is one of my top priorities. I am clean, consistent, reliable, and value communication. You and your animal’s comfort with is very important to me!

Megan communicates very well and does what she says she is going to do. The app is not user friendly for me but Megan is working out the bugs on her end. Rocco is cared for very well and is a changed man. I can see him less depressed since Megan came into his life.

Elizabeth performed brilliantly -- she completed all requests without fail and provided plenty of photographic and written responses. She was timely in arranging service initially. And she managed the visits and house key drop-off well. We appreciated her willingness to commit to providing care with short notice. Thanks!

Gilbert was absolutely a life saver. He took the time to be very thoughtful and thorough when taking notes.He also communicated with me as well and I know both my pets were very well taken care of while I was gone. Very trustworthy and I highly recommend Gilbert, if you’re looking for someone to take care of your pets.

About: I've been an animal lover since I was a young girl and want to have a positive impact on every fur baby I come into contact with. So far in my early years of life I've cared for 3 dogs of my own, from having a super calm lab mix to having a hound mix with anxiety and high energy. In 2018 I adopted a 5 month old lab pit mix from a high kill shelter through East Coast Adoptions. Taking on a high maintenance dog has it's challenges but extremely rewarding. He taught me so much, including patience and how to become a good trainer. Message me to find out more about my services! I just moved back to my home town and have a flexible schedule that will allow me to pop in and check on your fur baby while still keeping an open schedule 💖 I had a fenced in yard growing up at my parents house that allowed my pups the exercise needed daily as well as afternoon walks. I will no longer be able to provide boarding/ overnight care as an option at this point but happy to work with your needs to come up with a compromise!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Oneonta on Rover is $24.98 per visit (as of August 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 .

As of August 2026, there are 33 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Oneonta. 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 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.
