About: I've been a sitter for over twelve years; entrusted with peoples pets and homes and esuring responsible and compassionate care with many refernces availible. I travel full time so I have no pets of my own and thats why I enjoy caring for other peoples. With a flexible work schedule, I can accomodate your pets specific needs. I am happy to do check ins, walks and exercise, or house stays- whatever makes your pet most comfortable. I have experience administering medication and pride myself on my communication and professionalism. If you think I may be a good fit I'd love to connect and learn more about your pets needs.

I strive to understand how you pet parent as everyones style and comfortability is different. My goal is to make the pet feel at ease the best I can. By speaking with you ahead of time and understanding your routine, language, reward and disciple style, as well as the pets normal behavior I am able to minimize their stress and ensure compassionate thoughtful care.

My car is very safe and I will put them in the backseat. If there are special requirements, please let me know.
“Christine was awesome! I have never had anyone that I didn't know watching my animals, so I was a little nervous. But she was great. My kitties LOVED her and it helped me enjoy my vacation more knowing they were being so well taken care of. My one cat has diabetes and she made sure to stay on schedule with his meds.I also got lots of pictures and updates for every visit. Highly recommend👍🏼😁”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Nikki! She went above and beyond while caring for our two cats. From the start, her communication was timely, thorough, and reassuring. She took the time to get to know each of our cats individually and made sure their emotional and physical needs were met—not just the basics like food, water, and litter. It was clear she genuinely cared and paid close attention to their behavior and routines. We came home to two happy, relaxed cats and felt completely at ease while we were away, thanks to Nikki’s diligence and warmth. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 3 years old. I love my pets, past and present. Currently, I have 5 dogs and 2 kitties. I have PERSONALLY successfully potty trained 2 of the dogs my family has had. I’ve owned a range of very large and very small dogs. I’ve dealt with puppies as young as 3 months and seniors as old as 13 years for dogs and 16 for cats (the cat is still alive and doing well!) I am a university student so I will be able to take care of your pets mostly in the evenings. However, I am available until noon on most weekdays and completely free on any weekend . I have taken care of not only sick house pets but sick wildlife. I have so much love for every animal that I will cater to any needs necessary. I myself have a dog with a disability and he is my heart and soul; I would do anything for him and your pets too.

“Finally! We have found the perfect cat and house sitter. Terri did an amazing job taking care of both while we were gone for 2 weeks. Our house was just as clean as I left it (I am a little OCD when it comes to that) and our little ball of fur was happy. Terri sent pictures daily and updated us each day with how Callie was doing. You could tell from the pictures our kitty was relaxed and comfortable with Terri. I would highly recommend Terri to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family member and home. She is amazing!!”
“Arianna did great with Porkchop! She was punctual to his feeding times and he looked happy and healthy when we returned. We will keep her in mind for future bookings!”
“When booking for a boarding weekend, neither Lauren and I were sure whether our cats would be a good fit for a weekend boarding stay. She was more than willing to be flexible and try a one night boarding stay to test out if a longer weekend stay would work. Lauren was friendly, attentive, caring to my cat. Her home was welcoming for my pet. She provided photos. Thank you Lauren for trying a one night trial run!”
“Michael is great - we have used him a couple of times. He is very responsive when communicating and our two dogs really like him (and they aren't the easiest of dogs to sit for. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
About: My unconditional love for all animals. Every cat or dog that I meet I treat and cherish as if they were my own fur baby. I do work a full time job, 8-4 Mon-Fri. However, I am looking to use some of my free time taking care of your fur baby! I do my best to maintain whatever routine you have with your fur baby. I am willing to go the extra mile to make your pup feel safe and comfortable while you are away.
About: I’ve grown up caring for cats and dogs and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. I have an active dog of my own who loves going on long walks, so I’m very comfortable keeping energetic dogs active and entertained. As a high-level athlete, I’m active myself and genuinely enjoy being outdoors, whether that’s walking, playing, or simply spending time with a pet. I’ve also helped neighbors care for their animals while they were away. Right now I’m training in Milwaukee and have practice at 3:30 so I can take care of your pet during the day but also after practice if needed. Would be preferred if I did at the clients house but I live in a apartment right now they have a dog park and sorts.
About: I have 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs & cats of all ages and personalities. I have also worked in pet care roles and fostered animals, including those who are shy, anxious or have special needs. I am patient, gentle and attentive and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs and routine. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM–4:00 PM in an office, so I plan my schedule around providing reliable, attentive care for the pets I look after. I’m available for pet care outside of my work hours, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I understand how important consistency and communication are, and I always do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs and maintain their routine. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away! In my home, pets are cared for in a calm, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and safe, supervised time, and I’m mindful of giving pets their own space when needed—especially those who are shy or adjusting. In your home, I focus on maintaining consistency and following your instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and playtime. I treat your home with respect, keep things tidy, and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal in any setting is to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,378 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Pikeville. 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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
