“We are repeat clients and love how easy Bethany is to communicate with! Our kitties love her and we always have peace of mind knowing shes caring for our fur babies while we’re away :) Thank you again Bethany!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I bring a wealth of experience caring for a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, fish, and reptiles. Growing up in a home filled with pets, I’ve developed a deep understanding and comfort in grooming, walking, feeding, and engaging with your furry companions. Rest assured, I will treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own! I embrace all breeds and types of animals without discrimination, and I'm committed to providing a warm and welcoming environment for your fur babies. As a mother of two energetic boys, your pets will receive an abundance of love and companionship while they're in my care. My sister will also lend a helping, if needed, giving your pets the extra attention and care they deserve. I can’t wait to make your pets' time with us a joyful experience! I’m currently a full time student and mother. I am very flexible with my schedule with the exception of the hours 8-9a and 330-415p for school pickup. In my home or my client’s home, I prioritize a safe and comfortable environment tailored to each pet's individual needs. Most importantly, I provide an abundance of love and attention, keeping pet owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel connected while their furry companions are in my care.
“Super reliable and very friendly to us and our pup! Really appreciate the efforts during our initial meetings to make sure our buddy was comfortable. Now they are like old friends and it’s only been a few visits!”
“Christine was very nice & caring with my boy simba! She updated me regularly & even sent pictures & videos. Simba had a great time in her care & I will definitely be booking again for future trips!”
“Megan was AMAZING! Our pup can be stressed out with new people and we just lost our other pup, so he was extra stressed meeting someone new this time. Megan took her time with our baby and was so patient. She kept us informed and we are just so grateful that she cared so much! Highly recommended!”
“Anya was great with my pup! This was my first time using rover and I was a bit nervous about leaving her with someone but Anya made me feel a lot better about it. She did a great job keeping me up to date on how Stella was doing and was very responsive! Overall a great experience and I would definitely book again!”
“My dog is super particular and anxious around most, but he was so calm and at ease with Sarah. I am so thankful for her. My dog usually also gets sick when I leave town, but he was doing fantastic and so healthy when I returned. Sarah is so good with dogs, and she was so professional and took this very seriously. I hope to get her help again! She’s the best.”
“Abagail did fantastic with our two cats! She kept us in the loop the entire time, played with and took care of them. Super nice and attentive! We could tell she loved taking care of cats and did a great job. We will 100% rebook her again!! Highly recommend!”
“Andy took my last minute booking and accommodated my times. He clearly enjoys meeting and taking care of pets, treating them well and being attentive to their needs. Wrigley was safe and content in his care. I am very grateful!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember from horses to bunnies and have love every part of it. I currently have two pets of my own a dog and a cat. I do work full time most days but occasionally have weekdays off and I’m fully available on the weekends so I’ll be able to give your pet the time they need. In my home I provide my pup with frequent bathroom breaks and playtime and well as daily walks. I’d love to provide this care for your pup.
About: I’ve had over 2 pets in my life which I have cared for before 1 passed. I often take car or dogs while doing that! I’m currently get my phlebotomy certificate so I work from 8-4 and if you’re near Howard University I can definitely walk your dog during lunch hour! I work with whatever you tell me! If you dog loves to play fetch outside, I love doing it. If your doggie loves cuddling up and napping that’s great too

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Poquoson on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
