Alison is the most amazing pet sitter! She always takes such good care of our two cats. She sends detailed daily updates and lots of lovely pictures, which always reassure us that our cats are in good hands. When my husband and I have gone on vacations before and left the cats behind in the care of other sitters, the cats always seem a little sad and stressed when we return. But not with Alison! They always seem calm and happy because she’s done such a good job of making them feel safe and cared for. Now, we wouldn’t trust our cats to anyone else. Thank you, Alison!

After meeting Christie for the first time and seeing how patient she was with Ellie, I could see she was an animal lover. I was able to relax and have a great time visiting family for the weekend.

About: I’ve cared for pets since age 11, and I truly enjoy giving them the love, attention, and gentle care they need and deserve every day. Pet care fits easily into my daily life because I’m in school, working part-time, and have a flexible schedule that allows me to help whenever needed. I don’t provide in-home boarding, but I always respect and carefully follow each owner’s instructions to ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for.

We only had a pop in visit scheduled on Thanksgiving but met Renee prior and got to see her with our GSD Rudy. He's a 90 pound dog so could be intimidating to some people, but not Renee! He like her just fine too and she was very interactive with him. You can tell a dog person when you meet one and Renee was definitely into dogs! We will use her again when the need arises. :)

Sarah came highly recommended from our old sitter who is leaving town. She is kind, patient, and genuinely caring. Our dog felt comfortable and happy right away, which gave us total peace of mind at meet and greet. Such a nice, trustworthy person—we’d absolutely book her again.

About: Hi! I’m Bree, and I’ve always loved animals. I’m currently the proud owner of two cats, Dewey and Olive, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I know every pet has a unique personality. Some love to play, while others simply want a calm companion, and I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’ll send plenty of photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and safe. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I work remotely Monday through Friday, which allows me to offer morning, evening, and weekend visits, along with limited midday availability when my schedule permits. Whether your pet needs fresh food and water, playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they are well cared for! I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can provide care that’s tailored to their needs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, or simply spending quality time together, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: I have taken care of neighbors’ and grandparents’ dogs as well as my own. I love dogs more than most people and would do anything to protect them and keep them happy. As a college student away from my fur babies at home, this fits perfectly into my schedule. I have a lot of time on my hands until I start grad school this summer! I will just be taking the fur babies for walks as I am in an apartment that unfortunately does not allow pups. I will use safe paths or neighborhoods as well as any parks or fields that allow us!

About: I’ve always had a furry friend by my side, since as long as I could remember. I provide reliable, patient, and personalized care to each pet I care for. I love both dogs and cats, no matter breed, size, or personality, I always make sure they’re safe and comfortable. As a responsible pet sitter/walker, I keep owners updated and follow routine in order to keep your pet happy and loved while you’re away:) Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible weekday schedule. I’m currently a student at Wilmington University, while balancing mutiple side incomes as a 23 year old in today’s world. I’m available throughout the week for walks or drop-in visits, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet's needs. I care for every pet like they're my own. I follow their usual routine, make sure they have food, water, exercise, and lots of attention, and I always follow the owner's instructions. My priority is keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable.

You will enjoy that I will give your dog/dogs my full attention.I will give them tons of loving pets and hugs as well as play with them until they want to quit!

In addition my neighborhood is nice and big with fun trails and parks nearby that I can take your furry friends to!

Lynn is great. Our two cats, who can be very shy, skittish and picky loved Lynn from the moment they met her at the meet and greet. We rested easy on our vacation knowing Lynn was taking care of them and loved seeing all her updates and pictures. She is super professional and I would definitely recommend her to any cat families!

Maria was very attentive and helpful while I was away I was worried about Possums eye and contemplating a vet visit. She gave eye drops and plenty of updates, and when I returned home his eye was good as new!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Pike Creek Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Pike Creek Valley on Rover is $16.65 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 2,225 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Pike Creek Valley. 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 Pike Creek Valley. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
