About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since as early as I can remember. Honestly I get along with animals better then people! We've always had a dog and more recently cats. My in-laws ask for my help when they take a trip and I am always happy to help! Currently I am caring for my kids during most of the day but I am open on evenings and weekends as needed! I'll try to fit anything in that I can! I'll always greet the animals first and make sure they are comfortable with me. Then I check for water and food. Once I make sure those are good we are off for play time or walk time!

Sadie was so wonderful! She made sure that our cat and her would get along before the check ins and sent wonderful updates while we were away. I felt extremely comfortable with her and so happy that our little girl was cared for by someone so kind.

Hanna did an excellent job stopping by my house each day to care for my two cats while I was away on a trip. She fed them, cleaned and filled their water bowls, cleaned the litter boxes, disposed of the litter in the garbage can outside, and paid special attention to them each day ❤️. It was awesome that she sent me photos and videos of her petting and playing with them! And it let me know that they were in good hands while I was away. I can’t express my gratitude enough. Thank you, Hanna!

About: I love animals and have a degree in wildlife biology. We had a special needs German shepherd for nine years until her passing several years ago. As a mom of four children who are in school during the day, I have a consistent and flexible daytime schedule that allows me to focus on pet care. I genuinely look forward to spending that time caring for animals—whether that’s going on walks, providing companionship, or making sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their routine. Pet care fits naturally into my day, and I’m able to give dogs and cats my full attention while my kids are at school. I provide reliable drop-in visits to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, helping them stay relaxed in their familiar environment. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or tidy up any messes, and keep their space clean and comfortable. I also spend quality time with your pets based on their needs—whether that’s playing with energetic dogs, offering gentle companionship to shy cats, or giving calm affection and attention. I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets and making sure each one gets individual care and attention. I pay close attention to their behavior and routine so I can notice anything out of the ordinary and ensure they feel safe and secure while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I bring 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, from looking after the dogs, cats, and all sort of creatures of family and friends, to spending 5 years working in a busy dog daycare. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable with structured routines, group play, and individualized attention. I now work full‑time for the state, but pet care remains one of my favorite parts of life — and I’d love to help care for your fur babies. I’m currently working full‑time, but my availability will be opening up soon — I’ll have a fully flexible schedule any day of the week in the near future. As for right now, I am currently only available for in-house sitting on the weekends. I am available for weekday check-ins/walks anytime after 3 pm, and anytime during the weekends. I only provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets feel safest and most relaxed. I stick closely to your feeding, potty, and routine schedules, and I’m happy to accommodate any special instructions or quirks your pet may have. My goal is to maintain your pet’s normal rhythm and create a calm, secure environment while you’re gone.

About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies.

I have a fenced yard so I’m always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot

Tina was amazing! I had a friend have to suddenly cancel on me due to a family event, and Tina was able to jump in and take care of my cat, Koan on such short notice. Super loving and very attentive. Would highly recommend.

Olivia is our go-to sitter for our 2 kitties whenever we have to go away. It's always a relief to know that they are in her care. 💜 She meets them both where they are at (as they both have very different needs and personalities!) and we can see in each visit update that they are being completely themselves and are so at ease with her. They truly love their Olivia Time!! 😁 We can't recommend Olivia enough. We really appreciate the genuine love and care she gives to our boys on her visits, and the consistent communication and attention to detail she provides us in updates throughout our time away. Thank you, Olivia, for loving our lads! 💕🐾

Cheryl is by far the best, most reliable pet sitter I have ever had. She followed my directions to the T. She is indeed a cat whisperer; my two cats usually run and hide when anyone comes into the house. They both came out for her when she dropped by for a pre-sitting visit; they let her feed them their evening treat. She is kind and respectful; thanks, Rover!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Paxtang on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 798 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Paxtang. 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 Paxtang. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
