“I highly recommend Alyssa and her PUP to take care of your dog. She is conscientious and thorough in every way. She even gave a dog a bath after going to the park and playing extensively. This is our second time using her and we will continue to do so when needed. Thank you for loving on Finley and giving him a playmate!”
“Briana was very communicative and made sure our cat was well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be reaching out to her first when we have about her trip”
“I'd 100% book Angelica again! She did a great job looking after my bunnies, and went above and beyond with tidying up after a week of visits. She was on top of communication at all times. Yay Angelica!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who turned my passion into a professional career. I have over 4 years of experience as an independent pet sitter, specializing in the care that requires an extra level of attention and expertise. Whether your pet is a playful kitten or a beloved senior, I treat every animal like family. My background is specifically focused on Senior & Disabled Care: Supporting older pets with mobility issues or specialized routines. Medical Management: Confident and experienced in administering oral medications, injections, and following strict medical protocols. Lifetime of Experience: I’ve been around animals since I was a kid, so I’m deeply in tune with pet body language and needs. I want to provide the best care possible while staying accessible! Please note: To cover transit time and costs, any bookings located 5miles or further from 19146 will incur a travel fee of 5$ I work from home so I can pet sit, walk, or check in on your fur babies whenever needed. including overnight or for more than one day. I have a lot of experience with all sorts of animals from runners and behaviorally challenged to disable and senior animals I dont do sittings at my house but i'm looking into taking daycares for eligible animals! I do not do boarding all daycares are held in public usually along trails or at local dog parks!
“I always have peace of mind having Sara take care of our cat, Rusty! She goes above and beyond. I am so sure Rusty looks forward to her visit and doesn’t mind us being away 🤗. Thank you, Sara.”
“It was our first time leaving, Daphne, our cat alone for a weekend and we were apprehensive in leaving her with a sitter. Patricia took the time to come to our house and meet Daphne. When it came time to leave for our trip Patricia made sure to send us a whole bunch of pictures of her and Daphne playing and having a good time. Patricia made our first experience using Rover effortless and made us feel comfortable while we enjoyed our weekend. We will be sure to check if Patricia is available next time we book a trip.”
“Helena did a great job taking care of our two cats for a week. She came at the agreed-upon time each day, gave them lots of love, pets, and playtime, and sent us pictures that helped us not miss them quite as much; although that’s hard, of course! We felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Kathy is my go to sitter! If you ever have the chance to have her take care of your animals you will be more than happy! She has a way of putting my cat at ease while I am away. She takes the time to play with her and interact with her! I am thrilled with the love and care she gives to my pet. I highly recommend her as being responsible and caring.”
“Helena has been watching our cat for years now and she is always amazing! We appreciate her help so much and would highly recommend her!! She goes above and beyond. Thank you so much!!”
“Danielle is excellent. I am very particular about my cat and how he is treated. I am also very particular about clearing his liter and the space around the liter. My cat was very happy when I returned and my house was as clean as if I did it myself. I would most certainly recommend Danielle and will absolutely use her again!”
“Abby has helped me out last minute a few times and I’ve been so grateful for her help! Our anxious dog, Buddy, knows her name now! He gets so excited when I say “Abby is coming soon” :)”
“I was anxious about leaving my cat for 2 weeks with a sitter that we have not used before. I am so happy and pleased that we chose Mike. Dexter was a happy cat when I returned, litter box and house was clean and orderly, like I never left! Mike also went further and took care of erroneous deliveries at my front door, disposing of rotting food and personally bringing the packages to the unit of the rightful recipient! Thank you, Mike! I hope we can be repeat customers in the future.”
“She is an amazing sitter! If I could give her 6/5 stars I would. She was so friendly and sent sweet messages and photos during her visits. Her love for animals showed. I could tell that she really enjoyed caring for my 100 lb Dane! (He actually might like her more than me now!)”
“Alexis came through last minute on a holiday and did a great job taking care of our 3 month old pup. She got to our home early, listened to all our instructions, and handed our house back in one piece lol.”
“I have hired Syd several times to take care of my two kittens and I always come home to happy babies! Syd is very reliable and conscientious; it’s a relief to know I don’t have to worry while I’m traveling! I definitely recommend them to others”

Julia is very nice and personable. She was very responsible in coming on a regular basis, twice a day, to take care of my two cats and was diligent on sending photographs! I would recommend Julia. I feel like my cats were well taken care of and seemed happy when I returned.
Max & Bern are still walking through the house looking for Sara & Nathan. They don't remember our names. What wonderful people, putting us at ease with loving pics & daily updates. We returned home and Max & Bern kept forgetting our names. Still ask and look for Sarah & Nathan around noon. Made our mini vacation more enjoyable knowing this wonderful couple was more than taking care of Max and Bern's needs with the love going both ways. Couldn't ask for more. Meow Out!!!
Dion took fantastic care of our cat and dog when dropping in for a walk, or playtime, or putting them to bed! My wife and I loved getting her notes and photos with each Drop-In visit and we could tell the pets both loved her care (although our cat needed a few visits to warm up). I would recommend Dion to any and all of my friends for any pet sitting needs!
My husband had always make the arrangements with Ryder so I was a little apprehensive taking care of it myself. But couldn’t have been easier. Melissa was great. All of her reports were fun to read. Thanks Melissa and Rover. Little Girl was well taken care of while I was away.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Penfield on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,568 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Penfield. 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.
