Patricia took great care of my two cats while I was out of town for the weekend. One of my cats is a challenge and gave Patricia a hard time. She handled it like a pro and kept working with him until she was able to give him his meds. I highly recommend Patricia and will call her again!

About: I’ve had a cat/s since I was a kid, harness trained my youngest Thor when he was a tiny kitten & give 2 of my other cats special medicines. If you are wanting help harness training your kitten or giving them medicine I can help! I run my own business here in Harrisonburg & can be flexible during the day/weekends depending on time as I pick up business. Sometimes bwt my business sessions I go home to check in on my cats so I’d be happy to do the same for you! I know my 4 cats like their litter boxes clean so if even scooping your cat’s box/changing it out can help make a difference I understand. Let me know at least 3 days in advance. My 4 cats are territorial so when I’m home they are often either on my screened in porch & separate rooms in the house. At the moment I can’t take care of any additional cats at my house however I can check in on yours at your place when needed.

Isabella took wonderful care of our Lab and Pomeranian. She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated while we were away. She was also able to help us on short notice, which we were incredibly grateful for. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We would definitely book with her again! 🐾

About: I have a big golden retriever at home, so I’m used to large breeds, energetic dogs, and pups who shed like crazy. I’m comfortable with strong pullers, playful personalities, and dogs who need lots of exercise or attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or sticking to their daily routine. I’m a college student home for break, and my schedule is very open right now. I only work a couple of shifts a week, which means I have plenty of availability for drop‑ins, walks, and pet sitting. I’m flexible, easy to coordinate with, and happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they get the attention and consistency they need. I keep a safe, calm, and well‑supervised environment for every pet in my care. I follow their normal routine, keep their space clean and consistent, and double‑check all doors, windows, gates, and leashes to prevent escapes or accidents. I’m mindful of what each pet needs, quiet stability for cats and secure, structured walks and play for dogs. I’m very confident about keeping pets comfortable, protected, and in a safe environment at all times.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best cat sitter I could have asked for! I’m very particular about my cats’ care, and I left detailed written instructions along with videos. She followed everything exactly, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She even brushed my long-haired cats, which I really appreciated and wasn’t something I expected. When I got home, they were happy, well cared for, and the whole experience was completely stress-free. It was obvious they had been looked after with genuine care and attention to detail. I would absolutely trust her with my cats again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and attentive pet sitter!

About: I’ve taken care of various types of animals since I was 12. I have 4 dogs of my own and constantly dog sit for friends/family. I’ve been responsible for house sitting, dog sitting, bathing, walking and playing with pets. I am currently a student, so I have availability throughout the week. It is my top priority to give animals the best care possible. I am available most days. I make it my top priority to keep animals happy and safe! I always have dogs on a leash when walking them. I am a very cautious and aware person as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Penn Laird on Rover is $18.87 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 361 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Penn Laird. 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 Penn Laird. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
