“Ken did a great job with our Rottweiler Sofia. We were gone for several days. He did well encouraging her to eat. He was on time for the drop in visits, provided a picture of a happy girl, and gave helpful feedback. Ken is kind and gentle.”
“Dana did an amazing job. I got lots of updates and pictures. My dog loved her and I felt comfortable having her in the home while no one was there. She even went back to check on something after she had left. 13/10!”
About: I’m new to professional pet sitting, but I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life and have experience helping family and friends. I’m patient, attentive, and focused on making pets feel safe and comfortable. I keep my schedule manageable so each pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love. I currently have a free schedule this summer and can be flexible with what you need from me to care for your pet especially if your schedule can be unpredictable. Just message me to work out anything you might need. I stick closely to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress free for you and your pet(s) In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions to ensure that I am giving my clients peace of mind when I’m caring for your fur babies!

About: I’ve been a dog mom for 20 plus years. I’ve worked at two different kennels and have experience with many breeds. Also, a lover of all animals! I’m currently looking for a full time job, my schedule is wide open. Prefer mornings and afternoon, but not limited. I enjoy spending time with my dog and friends. I have a fenced in backyard my dog enjoys sniffing around. After play time we like to cuddle or enjoy bones filled with peanut butter.
About: I am very familiar with many types of animals. From cats, dogs and hamster to small birds, small reptiles and fish. I am a current cat mom to three little fur babies. Feel free to message me with any questions! 💜 I’m a part time employee and mom so I am very flexible and adaptable to most peoples needs. I do not work on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays though to ensure proper quality time with my family. I currently have one female Mainecoon and two male Manx cats. They are my little babies and they are definitely well beyond spoiled! We use pine pellets to ensure no clay dust particles infiltrate their airways and keep their water fresh with a running fountain. They get nothing but love and snuggles the other 50% of the time when they’re not enjoying their sun naps in the windows.
“As you know, it's so stressful trying to find someone who will care for your pets like you do, but Shari was absolutely fantastic for us! I've never seen our two cats act so well adjusted coming back from time away like they have with Shari taking care of them- We knew we were in perfect hands when we met her- She really cares about pets and their well-being. --Great communication, professionalism, and showed great care! We couldn't recommend her more! Thx Shari-”
About: I have had rescues dogs and cats all my life. I have administered medicine, cared for both puppies and senior dogs. I understand the importance of establishing trust with them.

Just let me know your care preference - walking, play time or just loving on your fur baby! I currently have a rescue that needs special care... he is diabetic and is not fond of hot afternoons so his schedule is tailored to both the weather and his needs!
About: I have had both cats and dogs My entire life. After 16 AMAZING years with my dogs Axel and Lugnut, I have found myself with an empty nest.

I have experience with dogs both big and small, young and old, and my sweet girl who just passed was deaf, so I have experience with special needs. I have successfully fostered high risk dogs helping them find their perfect forever home. 🐾 I am a stay at home caretaker for my father-in-law, so I can provide around the clock care for your sweet puppers. I am also quite active, and love to take walks, so your good boy or girl will think they are on vacation! I have an unfenced yard, and I live within a 3 minute walk to a large park. My neighborhood is quiet and is sheltered from busy streets. I would love to have your dog come visit!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve had dogs my entire life, so being around them has always been second nature to me. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me to dog sit, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with every dog I meet. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will always provide plenty of affection, exercise, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands.

“Maureen did a wonderful job taking care of our cat G while we were away. She sent pictures each day and was very specific about how she was doing. I felt very at ease knowing she was well cared for! I will definitely be using her again when we travel.”
About: I love pets and just moved to the area with my family! We currently have none of our own so would be happy to help you spoil yours. My two year old has been around furry friends her whole life. We live on Gasparilla Island now so any pets on the island will be easy to let out as often as needed. Pets off the island that are not boarding with us can be let out every 4-6 hours. Although we do not have a fenced yard we will take your pet out for a walk multiple times a day! We have no pets and will only watch one families pets at a time if boarding. If walking we will take them out as often as the heat allows! Happy to take the dog to a park if off island.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Placida on Rover is $32.19 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 567 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Placida. 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 Placida. On Rover:

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.
