“This was our first time having Cassidy come take care of our dog who has high anxiety and chronic medical issues that require daily medications. She took such great care of him, was very accommodating to all of our needs and our dog's needs! Her communication with us was amazing, we received pictures and updates every visit. We will definitely be asking if she can come again in the future! We would highly recommend her!”
“Thank you again Susan for the good care you give to our little old lady. Angel appreciates you and so do we. Enjoyed the pictures. Thank you for the Christmas picture of Angel. We love it.”
“Ashley was wonderful!!! She took pictures every visit which was very nice and got toys out and played with the cats. She left thoughtful, sweet and informative notes every visit. The cats loved her and were social with her. We would definitely book with Ashley again and 100% trust her with the care of our cats!!! Thank you, Ashley!!!”
“Clara has helped us out so many times with both of our pups. My girls absolutely loved her and got so excited to see her. My puppy had tummy issues and had an accident in her crate which got on herself, Clara was more then willing to give her a bath and clean out her crate so my pup wouldn’t have to sit in it all day! She’s amazing with communication and will respond quickly when she’s able too! I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone to truly care about your animal while you’re gone!!”
“Tess was very lovely! She was very understanding when things changes as far as logistics and was flexible when it came to adding an additional task. I would definitely have her check in on my animals again!”
“Five Stars! Matthew was awesome with my big slobbery mastiff and kitty too! Excellent communication, attention to detail, quality of care and customer service! Trustworthy and kind. So thankful to have found Matthew through Rover app. Will book again. Highly recommend!!”
“I cannot recommend Shyann enough! I had to make a last-minute booking, and they completely exceeded my expectations. Even with the short notice, they insisted on doing a meet-and-greet to make sure my dog was comfortable and that all instructions were clear—a level of professionalism and care I truly didn't expect given the tight timeline. They are reliable, incredibly sweet with my pup, and provided fantastic updates. It is such a relief to find someone so dependable and accommodating. I will absolutely be booking again!”
“Siyani helped us so much by being Bella's personal buddy while we hosted a function at our home! Bella still gets overstimulated with a lot of guests at our house and having Siyani walk her around, play with her, and help her get water when needed was an amazing help! Thank you so much! 💓”
“I am so thankful for Beth! She was quick to respond and took great care of my dogs in a last minute booking. She sent pictures and gave a great update for how the visit went. I will definitely be using her in the future when I need a drop in visit!”
“Brandy is amazing! I highly recommend her help. She was so friendly, prompt and responsive and clearly cares about and is a natural with animals. I could tell my cats were in very good hands. Thanks again, Brandy!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet owner currently owned by three cats—Chewy, Peanut, and Tigger 😸 With 30+ years of hands-on animal care experience, I know every pet has their own personality, routines, and very specific opinions. I’m comfortable caring for cats and dogs with a variety of needs, including medical support—my cat Chewy has asthma, so I’m experienced with daily treatments and paying attention when something seems off. I’ve also cared for dogs of different sizes, from my own growing up to helping with my brother’s Great Dane. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I’ll care for them with patience, reliability, and the same attention I’d want for my own pets. Since I work from home in Hummelstown, I have flexibility in my schedule that makes pet care a great fit. I intentionally keep my service area close to home so I can reliably stop by in the morning, during lunch, and after work for visits, walks, feedings, or check-ins. I’d rather provide consistent, attentive care to nearby pets than overextend myself. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routines and feel safe in their own environment. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any little quirks or preferences that make your pet comfortable. Safety is very important to me, whether that means double-checking doors and gates, following leash safety, being mindful of food restrictions, or simply paying attention if a pet seems stressed or not acting like themselves. As a longtime pet owner—including caring for a cat with daily medical needs—I know how important attentiveness and consistency are. I also understand the trust involved in having someone care for your pets and enter your home, and I take that responsibility seriously.
“Susan is so sweet! Both my dogs were well cared for. She met ahead of time and was sure to jump right in and walk them, asked questions, got to know me and my pups, and was very thorough. We’re sadly heading out of the area but I absolutely recommend her and would use her again! Thanks for all the updates and such good care Susan!”
“Alyssa did a great job dropping in on our 4 cats while we were away for 2 weeks. We felt comfortable that they were being well tended to. We appreciated the daily updates and photos!”
About: Hi! My name is Hannah, and I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid. I have several pets of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and responsibility that goes into keeping them happy and healthy. I also volunteered for years with Feline Finish Line at Petco, where I helped care for and socialize cats while they waited to find their forever homes. I’m an active, reliable, and caring person who genuinely loves animals. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, cuddles, or just a little extra attention while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared f I’m a current student athlete at college. I’m looking for more summer hours as it will fit into my schedule. I love to go on runs and walks everyday! I care for your pet the way you want me too. If you want me to walk or run your pet I will! I also can crate them, feed them, and play with them!

Cassidy did an amazing job cat sitting our fur babies. She went above and beyond to get shy kitties to eat. She sent pictures and updates every day. I would give Cassidy a higher rating if it was available. We will definitely use Cassidy again. Thank you Cassidy!
Kristin did a spectacular job! She took care of my pets as if they were her own! She followed my care instructions and kept my house in order. My pets were stress free. She sent wonderful videos of them receiving love and attention! I couldn’t have asked for anything better ❤️
This was my first pet sitter booking ever and I was a little nervous about it. Tess made me feel at ease and confident that my kitties would be well taken care of over the holidays. One kitty loved her immediately while the other had to warm up to her. By the end of the drop-in visits he was his usual, loving and purring self. Tess followed my instructions and was respectful of my property while I was away. She also picked up an extra day on short notice. I will book a pet sitter for all of my time away from home, and I wouldn't hesitate to book Tess again

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 July 2026, there are 936 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Palmyra. 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.
