About: I’ve been pet sitting, including overnights at clients' homes, for over six years. I genuinely love getting to know animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, gerbils, and even bearded dragons! I’m comfortable caring for senior pets and those who need a little extra patience, including blind pets and those who sometimes have accidents. I always strive to keep my clients' fur babes happy and relaxed so that they feel safe while their parents are away. I also include watering plants and mail fetching in my services. If desired, we can chat about house cleaning rates, too. Thank you for considering me! I work full time but am available to check in on pets in the morning, at lunch, and after work, including overnight stays. When I accept a job, I make pet sitting my first priority! I am happy to flex my work schedule to ensure you receive the best care for your pets and home. It is my absolute priority to create a safe, calm, and familiar environment for every pet that I care for. I am a stickler for following instructions, and even prefer a detailed list of feeding schedules, medication needs, routines, and any behaviors or triggers that may help me with your pet(s). I am detail oriented (which helps in my full-time job, too!), paying strict attention to locking doors and gates, setting alarms, and keeping spaces clear for my furry friends. I also monitor pet behavior and their bodies for any changes that may warrant contacting you. My ultimate goal is your peace of mind.
“Thank you for caring for my cat so well! It was calming to know my pet was in good hands during my absence. I truly valued the updates and the attentive care you gave. Your dependability and warmth made the experience stress-free. I look forward to booking with you again and will gladly recommend you to others.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am SO lucky to have found Amy! She was so good with my senior kitty who often doesn’t like strangers lol. It was the Christmas holiday too and she was on time and made sure my baby was eating/drinking while I was gone. Will 10000% be booking with Amy again the next time I need a sitter.”
“Naomi took wonderful care of our dog Stella! She was on time, very responsive, and sent lots of great photos! We wouldn't hesitate to have Naomi take care of our dog in the future!”
“Dan visited our cat and made sure he got lots of love while we were away. Our cat needs two types of medication and he handled it all and kept us updated, which was a huge relief. Was glad we booked with him for this trip!”
“Amber was exceptional. She took care of and gave my dogs the attention that they needed. Highly recommend and I will definitely be using her a lot more in the future.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and have experience with breeds of all sizes and personalities—from Chihuahuas and Maltese to Huskies and Pit Bulls. As a proud Pit Bull owner, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and treating every dog as an individual. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets over the years, and I always treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to provide safe, loving, and reliable care while making sure every pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for. As a stay-at-home mom and lifelong dog lover, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, potty break, exercise, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m committed to being reliable, punctual, and giving them the love and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll always respect your home, ensure leashes and harnesses are properly secured, provide fresh water, and send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Roxanne is the best! So attentive to the furry babies and always gets the best photos of our pup smiling from ear to ear! Highly recommend and will book again in the future.”
“Alex did a great job taking care of our Miley while we were away. Went the extra mile and gave her newly prescribed meds as needed and even took our mail/packages in the house. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again!”
About: I have never lived in a household without a fur baby being present. We've own big and small dogs, a cat, and even a bunny at one point. Being a pet owner is all I've ever known so I am pretty confident in my knowledge of pets and just pet parent intuition. I have recently left my full time job and started my own photography business so my schedule is extremely flexible and open. The only day I am typically unavailable is Sundays. I promise to treat every pet baby as if they were my own. I know that pets are more like family than anything so you/they would have a friend in me.
About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other people’s pets I’ve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. I’m a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I can’t have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!

“Trederica was wonderful! Kept me updated with pictures every visit & accommodated all my needs when it came to my fur baby, would absolutely book her again.”
About: I have had both cats and dogs in the house since I was a young child. As I grew older it became part of my daily chores to take care of them. I helped care for my elderly pets before they departed. I have around the clock availability. I can take a job at any time of day at any time of the week. I’m always available. I have regularly walked dogs for years and can take them to the local dog park to play. I also have plenty experience with cats, both with playing and cleaning.

“Brianna was kind enough to accept our very last minute request and came over to meet the cats and get care instructions ahead of time. Very happy to have found a friendly and professional sitter in our new town.”
About: Hello this is Santiago, If your dog loves to burn off energy, they will love hanging out with me! I am very playful and love nothing more than a high-intensity game of catch in the backyard or at the park. If a game of fetch isn't their thing, I am always down to run around and play whatever games they enjoy.Just like the sweet, massive pups I’ve cared for in the past, I bring a patient, loving "Gentle Giant" energy to every visit. Don't worry if your dog is on the smaller side, either—I am incredibly mindful of my size and know exactly how to be soft, gentle, and encouraging with smaller dogs and cats so they feel completely safe and secure around me. Pet care fits perfectly into my morning and evening routines! I dedicate my early mornings and late afternoons/evenings entirely to drop-in visits, walks, and playtime. This routine is ideal for working pet parents who need someone reliable to check on their furry friends before and after the workday. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety and trust are my top priorities.Inside the Home: I strictly follow the owner's entry and exit instructions, ensuring doors and gates are securely locked behind me. I provide a calm environment, refresh food and water, clean up any messes, and give lots of affection. As a gentle giant, I am highly mindful of my size and make sure to approach smaller dogs and cats softly so they feel completely safe. If the dog is high-energy, we will spend time playing catch or running around the yard to burn off energy safely.On Walks: I maintain total control of the leash at all times. My physical strength allows me to easily manage large, powerful breeds like German Shepherds or hunting dogs if they pull or encounter a distraction. I stay alert to our surroundings, avoid unknown dogs, and ensure your pet stays safe, happy, and well-exercised before tucking them safely back into their home.

Emily fed and cared for our cat for 7 days straight while we were away. She was very good with communicating and following up. I got a couple pics every visit. She even brought in my mail. She met my cat before our visit and you can tell She is very good with animals. He was immediately purring and loving her. We were very calm and relaxed because we knew our boy was in good hands. We'd 100% have emily watch our cat again.
💖💖Matthew( top-rated service) did a awesome job with my pet, I feel incredibly grateful and so lucky to have found him.

Deresha is the best!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Palmyra on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Palmyra. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
