“Lillyana was very responsive to us while we were away and always gave a thorough report of how our cats were eating and behaving. Our very timid cat only took a few days to get comfortable around her and she gave them a lot of playful attention and care. She is also super organized with her clients’ keys. We would definitely book her again in the future!”
“Mimi was the best choice for our fur babies. They immediately fell in love with her and she treated them as her own. I would 100% recommend her for any cat sitting inquiries. She always kept us posted with how they were doing and sent us loads of super cute photos of them. The cats were very happy to be under her care. Thank you so much!!!”
“Very sweet and caring with my babies Allie and Loki. She took lots of good pictures while we were gone and gave one of my cats meds to! Highly recommend her and trust her with any future visits. :)”
“Caroline came in clutch last minute and took great care of my baby. She made sure he was settled in before she left and came at the perfect time for his night-time potty break.”
About: I have my own rescue dog, so I understand how important patience, trust, and consistency can be when caring for pets. I’ve also helped friends and family with dog walking, feeding, playtime, and check-ins over the years. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your pet like my own while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine whenever possible. I take safety and trust very seriously and will always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide. I make sure pets are secure during walks and visits, keep doors and gates carefully closed, and give them plenty of attention, patience, and care. I want both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable while they’re in my care.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for my neighbors since I was 12 years old, where I was relied on to feed, walk, and play with many breeds of dogs. Since then, I have also fostered dogs and cats through my local shelter, and have been a designated dog walker for the past 6 months. I have experience fostering puppies as well! I am currently a law student and am hoping to walk/dog sit when I am not in class. I can easily hang out or with your dogs in the afternoons and/or weekends! I am very experienced with dog sitting and have spent weeks at a time dog sitting for others overnight. I am happy to take your dogs on multiple walks a day, play with them, and feed them. I will also follow every instruction you give extremely carefully!

“Booked Emily for a weekend overnight stay. Had another great experience, as always! I have booked with Emily on multiple occasions now and already have future stays booked. I can not say enough good things about her! She is always professional, is a great communicator sending texts, pictures and videos throughout her stay. She takes great care of my home and always leaves it very neat and clean. But most importantly, she takes amazing care of my pets. She really takes the time to get to know them, their personalities and their routines. I have added pets to the herd throughout her stays over the last year with the most recent being a pair of high maintenance guinea pigs. She stopped by for a meet and greet before the stay and was very eager to interact with them and learn their daily care routine. Of course my 3 cats came running to greet her when she walked in. It has been so great finding Emily thru rover. I can easily travel without the worry of who will care for my pets while l am away. She is absolutely wonderful and l highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I have 8 years of experience caring for my own cats and fostering cats, along with 2 years of experience working as a veterinary technician. This has given me hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including those who need a little extra patience and attention. As an aspiring veterinarian, I'm passionate about animal health, safety, and well-being. My veterinary background has helped me recognize when something may be wrong, administer care and medications responsibly, and understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable and stress-free. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away! I care for my cats every day. They get fed, have all day access water, and their litter boxes get scooped twice per day. I have many cat toys and cat beds. There is also space for a small dog to run around and play. I have extra bowls and beds and blankets for them to sleep on as well. I can house your cat or small dog in a separate room from the rest of the house and can even crate them in a comfortable extra large dog crate if needed. I have a large fenced in backyard, but I am more than happy to put your little friend on a leash and walk around the yard or the quiet neighborhood.
“Aaliyah is the best cat sitter I could have asked for. She accepted my last minute request to watch my 2 cats over the weekend with no hesitation and was very communicative with me. One of my cats is very timid so he was hiding a lot and not wanting to eat but she communicated that with me and tried everything to get him to come out and eat and it eventually worked! I believe he wasn't very fond of having a stranger in his home but Aaliyah did not complain once and was still very nice to him which shows how well she works with animals. Besides that she did everything I asked for and was very pleasant to work with. Will definitely have to rebook with her!”

I’m pretty open and available to follow your schedule! I typically have gone twice a day when I watch my friend’s animals, it just depends on what they prefer and what they think is best! I am very flexible. I will care for your pets and home as if they are my own! I love animals, it’s a pleasure to spend time with them. I will accommodate to your pets needs as you see fit!

Addison has watched my cats several times, and I can always count on her. She's readily available, accommodating with scheduling, and follows instructions. She sends frequent updates, so I never have to wonder how things are going. My cats are always relaxed and happy when I get home. I highly recommend Addison to any pet owner!
Samantha was amazing and took great care of my cat while I was away. She was very attentive to water and litter changes and sent multiple photos of her each day. Samantha made sure to give my cat space when she was feeling shy and I was very grateful to have her.
I had such a wonderful experience with my Rover sitter, Qin! She took amazing care of my cat Mimi while I was away. Every single day, she arrived right on time, made sure Mimi was well-fed, spent quality time with him, and kept everything clean—including his litter box and any little messes. What really stood out to me was how thoughtful and helpful she was beyond just pet care. She even helped bring back my trash can and kept an eye on the yard, which I truly appreciated. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Mimi was in such caring and reliable hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about him, and that means everything to me. I absolutely loved her service and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and kind pet sitter!
I hesitate to review Mason because I’m worried she will become so popular that I won’t be able to book her in the future. She is a great communicator and very dependable. I know that my cats will be just as loved and cared for when she visits as if I were home to do so myself! Mason also takes the best pictures (like straight up glamour shots) to send - clearly my cats love her too. I can’t say enough good things about her.
We’ve had Jessica watch our 2 cats twice now and she’s absolutely wonderful! She gives one of our cats a pill every night, makes sure they have food, water, and lots a cuddles and pets for the time she is there. We love having her watch our cats and would highly recommend. She even helped me out when a package was delivered in our mailbox and pick it up for me! We will definitely be hiring her for future watches. 😊
Jordyn is a wonderful house and pet sitter. We have used her many times and plan to in the future. She watch our senior cat while away for the holidays and checked in everyday giving us piece of mind while away and our cat is very shy but loves her. Highly recommend!!!!!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Perkins is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
