“Meowy loves Avery! She was so kind to troubleshoot the litter robot when it stopped working and would spend a few minutes extra which my cat appreciated.”

“Here comes a very grateful bouquet of big compliments: Catherine looked after my cats Emma and Kolya for a little more than a week and I could have not have such a great time away if it wasn’t for her attentive care, regular wellness updates and sweet photos. Emma had a little bit of a red watery eye, which Catherine would watch and treat carefully. I did not have to worry at all and would return to happy purring cats and a well respected home environment. I can recommend Catherine highly, also for her way of clear communication.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs at different life stages, including raising a dog from puppyhood and providing dedicated care for a senior rescue. I also have experience administering medication, including for dogs with congestive heart failure. I’m attentive to routines, behavior changes, and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and safety in pet care. I work part-time and am available for pet care on weekdays after 1 PM and on weekends. I plan my schedule to provide consistent attention, including walks, feeding, and medication routines. I’m reliable with timing and make sure each dog’s routine is followed closely. I provide a calm, structured home environment that works well for gentle, low-energy, or senior dogs. I have two young children who are taught to respect dogs’ space, so I only accept dogs that are comfortable around kids and have a calm temperament. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs are kept safely leashed. I do not have other pets, allowing me to give your dog focused, one-on-one attention. I follow routines closely, including medications, feeding schedules, and any special care instructions. I require a meet-and-greet to ensure a good fit for everyone’s safety and comfort.

About: I've been lucky enough to have a dog in my life since I was 8 years old, and now I'm 20! My dog is 13 years old, and caring for her has taught me so much about patience and responsibility. She takes multiple medications, so I'm very comfortable with medication schedules and making sure pets receive the care they need on time. I've also looked after other pets for family and friends like my friend's 3 cats, Rocky, Pepper and Sage, during school breaks, and the cutest dog in the world, Abby. These experiences helped me become confident caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs!! I truly love spending time with animals, cuddling, playing, keeping them company, or just making sure they stay active and happy. I'm an outdoorsy person who enjoys hiking and walking, so I'd be happy to take your dog on walks and adventures if needed. I'm reliable, attentive, and comfortable with feeding and following special instructions to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for! I’m planning to have an internship, so I’ll be working full days but will be able to periodically check in on your animals!! I love to play and spend time with them, and you can trust they’re in great hands! My puppy is 13 years old, and is on many medications, has specific feeding times and diet, but she still loves to play and go on walks! I’m super organized and take very good care of her.

About: I grew up in a household always with a pet and sometimes two. Having mostly taken care of small/medium sizes dogs and some large. Ive pet sit before for different friends and family, taking care of a variety of breeds, all the way from Chihuahuas and Jack Russel Terriers to Huskies and Golden retrievers. Currently I have no pets permanently living with me since I moved away from home for college. But on occasion I pet sit for my parents or take their dog to doggy day care. Im a part time college student and I do all my schooling online, so i'm always home. I do work in the evenings for 4-6 hours but I live with my sister who is a web designer and is often home too. I currently live in a townhouse, which has plenty of room for your furry friend. I don't mind your doggo lounging on the furniture or sleeping on the bed with me. I can feed your pet based on whatever schedule you have them on. There's plenty of grassy area in the communal living area and a near by park to take your pup on daily walks. I also love to give photos and video updates of your pets stay with me.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. People rely on me to take care of their dogs like feed them and bathe them and play with them and walk them and make sure they’re well loved It will only be me working with the dogs, I don’t need any other assistance with other people. I do work a full-time job, but I have flexible time before or after work so I’ll be able to take care of your dogs or cats. The best days are Monday through Saturday, Monday - Wednesday would be in the morning and Thursday - Saturday would be in the afternoon/evening. We have a fenced in yard at our house and we like to play fetch with our dogs, especially in the nice weather. They even love the snow. We do crate train our one dog so if your dogs need to be crated, I am able to do so. Our dogs are on the schedule for their food so if your dogs are too, I understand and can follow that schedule. And we give them lots of love so your dog(s) will be loved too.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, I have owned and cared for multiple breeds of dogs and cats, big and small, and been a pet sitter for friends and family on and off for the last 10 years. As a result of my experience as a pet parent and sitter I am very comfortable with most breeds. I also have limited experience training full grown dogs as well as puppies. I am available for walks, check-ins, or pet sitting every day. I am also available for boarding on a case by case basis. My work schedule allows me to be present for most of the day, so I can remain attentive and take plenty of walk and play breaks. During the times that I am gone I am able to crate them if that is your preference or they can have free access to the main part of the house and I will check in on them regularly through the doggie cams. I am able to dog sit in your home as well as in my own home, which has a large amount of indoor space that they can roam around in, as well as a partially fenced back yard that they can play in on a long leash with my supervision. I have plenty of time for walks and play breaks during the day. And during the few hours a day that I am out of the house, they can be crated, or they can roam around the main part of the house. I check in on them every half hour through the doggy cams set up in the house. I am comfortable walking, feeding, and if necessary, providing medication on the schedule and in the manner that you prefer.

About: Hello I am Julieanna. I have been working with dogs for the past 8 years and I have been a dog trainer/sitter for the past few years and now I’ve worked at a veterinary hospital for the past 2 years. I know how hard it can be to balance taking care of your pet(s) and work/life. I have a dog and a cat myself and I would want someone I can trust taking care of them. I hope to be the person you ask for help. I’m currently working full time so my schedule isn’t completely free but I am fairly flexible with my schedule. I am off on Fridays and have some availability on Saturdays depending on my work schedule. I will ask the client if there are any rules in their homes for their pet. I will listen to directions and make sure the pet is safe and happy.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and compassion for animals. I have a naturally calm, patient personality and a true desire to make every pet feel safe, understood, and cared for. I pay close attention to each animal’s individual needs and routines, and I’m dedicated to giving them the same level of affection and respect I give my own pets. I currently work at a part time job as a hairstylist in training and a bartender some days but i’m very flexible with my schedule I have a safe pet fence around my garden, i never let my dogs out my eyesight when they are going outside (they are small maltese dogs). When i will take care of clients pets I will ask if they have any preferences such as food, certain treats, allergies, or medication i need to be aware of. If any of the pets have a certain medical condition I will make sure the dog or cat is safe in my care and is comfortable with me

Danielle did a great job taking care of Holly while we were away. She followed the detailed care instructions I provided closely, including Holly's feeding routine and Hydracare, and asked questions upfront to clarify anything she wasn't sure about. She showed up at the same time every day and reliably handled everything — food, litter, and Holly's overall care. She also sent daily, detailed updates along with pictures, which we really appreciated. Holly is 17, so I was a little concerned she'd be uneasy with someone new, but she looked completely comfortable with Danielle, which put me at ease. Danielle also spent extra time with her during visits, which I think helped keep her calm and settled while we were gone. We'd definitely use Danielle again if we need a sitter in the future — highly recommend her!

This is the first time I have ever used Rover, and to be honest, I was a bit apprehensive as I didn’t know what to expect. Luckily, I found Donna and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I really appreciated how she took the time to meet and greet myself and my dog before accepting the booking. It was comforting to know she wanted to interact with my dog and make sure it was a good fit for everyone before immediately saying yes. Definitely helped to make me feel comfortable and confident leaving my fur babies in the care of someone genuine. We had to extend our booking twice and she was flexible and accommodating. Donna was attentive, punctual, and really went above and beyond to make sure my fur babies were cared for, safe, happy, and healthy. I like how she was communicative throughout the booking, spent time playing outside with my dog, and sending me the BEST action shots!! I swear my dog is gonna be disappointed that we are back home. I will definitely be booking again! Thank you, Donna!! You’re the best! 100/10 recommend

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Pleasant Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Pleasant Valley is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $44 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.

As of November 2026, there are 186 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Pleasant 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pleasant Valley. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 86% 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 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.
