“We recently used Clarissa for the first time, and we are very happy with the experience! Our dog was well cared for, and it was clear Clarissa genuinely loves animals. Communication was excellent, and we received regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog seemed happy and relaxed when we returned, which speaks volumes about the quality of care provided. We highly recommend Clarissa and will definitely be contacting her in the future!”
“We were relieved to find Agnes who we trusted with our two puppers for several visits during our wedding! She checked in and was great with sharing photos to let us know they were safe!”
“Juliette has been just wonderful to work with! We are truly thankful to have found her and our Rottweiler agrees!! Our most recent experience with Juliette was to provide 3 check-in visits over two days, including at meal time and bedtime. Juliette showed up right on time and spent a full 30 minutes with our boy each time, making sure he was comfortable and all his needs were met! She is reliable, dependable, communicates well, and is great with our 11 year old Rotty! Thank you again, Juliette!!”
“Karen was my cat sitter this past week while I was on vacation. She did great work. She feed my cats regularly, kept the litter boxes clean and gave them some well deserved scratches and sent photos of them daily. I will definitely use her for future cat sitting.”
“I had a great experience with Raysa watching my cats over the weekend. She was very friendly, reliable, and clearly loves animals. She took excellent care of my cats, making sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and happy. I really appreciated that she took the time to play with them during her visits — it gave me peace of mind knowing they were getting attention and care while I was away. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Hannah was phenomenal! Our original sitter called out less than a week before a 10 day trip, and we needed someone twice a day for our cat who needs insulin. She took wonderful care insuring Luna ate before her insulin dose, played with Arya, and provided wonderful photos and even videos while we were away. Hannah was willing to water our vegetables and take the trash out as well. She went above and beyond cleaning things up (cats threw up and peed outside the litterbox too!) and keeping everything tidy. We could not be more pleased and look forward to working with her again. Truly, a great professional sitter. Thanks so much Hannah!”
“Wow! Finding Angelique was a blessing. She is a dog lover, friendly, punctual, and went the extra-mile caring for our senior poodle. We highly recommend her and hope we can book her again soon...if you haven’t!”
“This was our second booking with Rachael and we could not be happier! She goes above and beyond every time and we leave knowing our babies are being well cared for and loved.”
“She made three visits a day to our house for our dog and cat. They loved her, and she did everything perfectly including giving our dog plenty of walks and giving her her medicine. We will definitely be asking her to come watch our pets again in the future!”
About: Been taking care of dogs since Covid helping my parents pet sitting. Also have 4 dogs that I’ve been pet sitting alone for about 3 years. Going for drop in visits and dog walking. Just give me a time and place and I’ll be there. I’m pretty much free most of the time so just hit me up! I make sure you give me a set schedule on what time you want them fed, walked etc. I make sure to follow your instructions thoroughly and give them medication or specialized meals if that’s what you give them.
About: Experience caring for all types of dogs (breeds, sizes and ages). I have watched both indoor and outdoor cats and I understands the needs of both dogs and cats alike. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available before and after work, evenings, weekends, and many holidays. Pet care is something I truly enjoy making time for, and I’m committed to providing dependable care that fits both my schedule and your pet’s needs. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping in for a visit, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m respectful of your home, follow all care instructions closely, and prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. We will never take more than 2 pets at a time and have cameras as well to monitor 24/7. We own our home and have lots of space for your pet to enjoy!
About: I have worked at a dog kennel for the past 3 years and absolutely love caring for animals! I recently graduated with a degree in Animal Science, and working with and learning about animals has always been a passion of mine. I have experience caring for and walking dogs of all different sizes, personalities, and needs. I would love the opportunity to provide your pets with the same love and care I give my own! I'm currently working part time at a dog kennel, so i'm available most weekdays and some weekends for your pet's needs! Due to varying shifts, my general availability is between 12-3 and 7-11. I will always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I will be attentive, responsible, and careful to follow each of your pet’s routine and their instructions. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Christina M. is an experienced long time pet owner who loves her job. My Beagle/ Jack Russel Terrier adores her when she walks him. She is always on time and contacts me with any concerns or questions. If your looking for a responsibile caring pet person I highly recommend booking Christina M.”
“Messaged me a lot of updates and videos. It’s great to know someone is following the suggestions to keep your overactive border collie happy. Did everything asked and even put the toys back they played with”
“Danielle was fantastic! I contacted her last minute to do visits while going away. She was very responsive and flexible in accommodating us. It was a great peace of mind knowing that our dogs were cared for so thoughtfully. She sent updates and pictures, which helped us know that our two dogs were okay. Her communication was very much appreciated and we look forward to using her services again!”
About: Not only have I had animals my whole life-this includes dogs, cats, rats, you name it! I’ve also been in the veterinary care field for over 2 years and I am currently enrolled and studying to be a Veterinary Technician. I have my own puppy Willow, who I care for with my partner. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, and have cared for my fair share of animals in all stages of their life. When your pet is with me, they’re in good hands. Currently I work part time at an animal hospital and go to school full time so I am available on the weekends Saturdays and Sundays consistently. When I am within your home, I will respect not only your boundaries but your pet’s too! I am a full supporter of fear free environments and continually educate myself on the best ways to make your pet feel comfortable and safe.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve done all the chores that come with them. I’ve had a big dog and a little dog almost my entire life. My big dog is now older, so I have to help him with his arthritis. I’ve had to pick up poop, feed them, walk them, and massage him. I don’t have a job currently, so I’m free for anyone’s convenience! Besides when I have to go to the gym, or when im on vacation. I have a fenced yard and a specific place for them to use the bathroom outside, and also have a pee pee pad inside that I switch out twice a day.

Karen was my cat sitter this past week while I was on vacation. She did great work. She feed my cats regularly, kept the litter boxes clean and gave them some well deserved scratches and sent photos of them daily. I will definitely use her for future cat sitting.
Our stay with Danielle through Rover was wonderful. I can honestly say our cats may have fallen in love with her! While our cats are usually not shy, they immediately treated Danielle like part of the family and loved her daily visits. Our male cat even sat on her lap every day and enjoyed chewing on her ponytail. We were a little embarrassed by his show of affection, but it was clear he had good reason. It’s easy to see why she’s one of Rover’s favorites. We would wholeheartedly recommend her for any cat—or any other animal—because she is a true animal lover.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,051 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Palmer Heights. 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.

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.
