“My little old man has never been much for other people.. Olivia was patient with him and gave him the time he needed to come out and eat! She handled his moodiness and his meds (not for moodiness sadly 😆) while also wrangling the 9month psycho kitten! I will 100% be a repeat customer”

“Angela did a wonderful job taking care of our babies. A situation came up and she informed us right away and she handled it very professionally until we were able to make it home. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have been responsible for caring for my neighbors, friends, and families pets for years. They have relied on me to care for their pets while out of town and working! This includes dogs with all kinds of energy levels and different needs! I work full time but I do have an hour lunch which would allow me to care for your pets during the day as well as before and after work! I have experience walking dogs with various energy levels and experience walking on leash. I also have experience with reactive dogs and the extra caution required!

“Amanda did everything I needed her to do. To my surprise one of them actually let her pet them and the other one came out of hiding. They don’t usually come out of hiding when people come to our house.”

About: I’m a lifelong pet owner with years of experience caring for animals and homes. I know pets are family, and I take my role as their temporary favorite human pretty seriously! I have experience with special needs pets and am comfortable giving medications, managing special feeding routines, and respecting very strong opinions about where to nap. If your pet needs care that’s new to me, I’m happy to learn and follow your instructions closely. My goal is to help you relax while you’re away, knowing your pets are getting thoughtful care, plenty of affection, and regular reminders that they’re the cutest creatures on the planet. I am currently wide open and looking to help out whenever it is needed. Until further notice I can be available any day, any time. I have three cats, and my senior kitties each have their own needs. One of my girls has asthma, so giving her an inhaler is part of our routine. I’ve also owned dogs and other animals, so my love definitely goes beyond cats! My cats have very different personalities, and they’re a daily reminder that every pet needs their own kind of care and attention. Some want snuggles, some want playtime, and some would appreciate it if you respected their very important personal space. I love meeting new pets and taking the time to earn their trust. When caring for your pets, I’ll follow their usual routines and your instructions for meals, medications, and daily care. I’ll pay attention to what makes them comfortable and let them warm up at their own pace. Whether they want a cuddle buddy or just some quiet company, I’m happy to be their person while you’re away.

Sam continues to be a stellar sitter for my kitty, Rosemary! There were a few changes to my travel schedule and I appreciate Sam's flexibility and prompt communication so much. Such a relief knowing that Sam is on top of it!

Sam is the BEST rover! She came over to watch our two cats and sent us so many pictures, it was so reassuring to see these updates while we were out of town. She has great communication and went the extra mile to ensure our kitties were taken care of and felt safe. We will 100% book Sam again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Poages Mill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 132 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Poages Mill. 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 Poages Mill. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
