“Clarissa did a great job with my cats! She sent cute photos and made sure they were happy and healthy. My cats seemed totally relaxed around her, and my house was clean when I got back.”
“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!!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have always had a passion for caring for animals. I currently have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I also help care for my elderly dog with special needs, giving me experience with senior pets who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m currently a student who is mostly remote. I have a very open summer schedule thanks to my summer break. I’m available weekdays and weekends. Or message me if you are in a pinch and I can try and accommodate you! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, so I’ll follow your instructions closely to help them feel relaxed and at home. Whether that includes daily walks, feeding on a specific schedule, administering medications, bathing, playtime, or simply spending quality time together, I’ll make sure they receive the attentive care they deserve.
“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!”
“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!”
“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: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I treat every pet like family and understand that each one has their own personality, routine, and comfort needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved — whether it’s a long walk, cuddle time, playtime, or simply keeping their routine consistent while you’re away. My current routine gives me the flexibility and availability to provide dependable, attentive care for pets throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, which makes dog walking and pet care a natural fit for me. I’m able to dedicate quality time to each pet, maintain consistent schedules, and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of affection, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention so they feel comfortable and secure. I keep a clean, safe environment, pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Communication with owners is also important to me, so I provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Liz is an amazing person. Very polite and easy going. She is truly amazing with my puppy, and I can tell how much passion she has towards animals. I'm so grateful for meeting her. I would highly recommend her for any needs you might have in assistance with any of your loved ones!!!”
“We recently traveled out of the country for our longest trip we've made since getting our cat, so I was little nervous to leave her. Thanks to Karen, I knew I had nothing to worry about! Karen sent regular updates, pictures, and messages that showed our cat was doing well and having a good time. When we arrived home, our cat was calm and relaxed, as further testament to Karen's pet sitting. I strongly and enthusiastically recommend Karen for your animal caring needs!”
“Angelique was fantastic with our dog while we were away! She was reliable, thorough, and incredibly kind and caring and we would 100% trust her again in the future to take care of our girl again!”
“Kat is an absolute rockstar! We have a lot of cats including a medically complex boy and a number of foster kittens, and Kat was able to take care of all of them! She gave us plenty of updates and was incredible to work with!”
“We have rebooked Hannah several times to watch our cat, Rocco. She always does a great job! Thorough report and pictures provided at the end of her visit. She’s a great choice for a pet sitter!”
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.
“Miah is fantastic! We can trust our pets are well taken care of. She is reliable and responsive and we can recommend her for a drop by or overnight sit. She will be our go-to sitter when we need to be gone.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Palmer Heights
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.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Palmer Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,042 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Palmer Heights. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
