About: Hello! I'm Leigh Ann, and I would love to be your pet sitter. I am reliable and attentive with your furry family members. I genuinely enjoy keeping pets comfortable in their own homes while you're away. I understand it is important to keep a pets routine, and I want to do what's best for the pet. I make it my priority to provide consistent care and a stess-free environment. I have about 7 years of pet/house sitting experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. This has included, but not limited to, feeding, walking, administering basic medications and plenty of affection and playtime. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, or more relaxed and shy, I will adapt to their own personality and needs. My own 2 dogs have their own distinct personalities. My male is playful and outgoing, meanwhile my female is more of a clingy needs in you personal space shy kind. I love them both. When house sitting, I treat your home with the the same respect I would my own. I keep spaces clean, secure and organized. I'm also happy to water plants, bring in the mail, pick up any packages, and keep everything running smoothly while you're away. In previous years I have even helped owners with their house when our area experienced prolonged power outages. While you are away, you can expect regular updates, photos and quick communication so you always know your pets are happy and safe. I am available most weekdays and weekends. I will help with any overnights that need taken care of. I have recently been working from home, so anytime you need someone I can be your go to person. I can't wait to help and meet your little furry family members! I'm currently working part time from home. My laptop and I are willing to help out you and your family any day of the week with a good notice. I can care for your pet anytime throughout the day as well. I will follow any current routine your pets have to give them the best care! I will feed, clean up their area, bath them, play with them or just simple walks. At your home is the best option to give your pet adequate care.

“This was the first time we have used Rover or a pet sitter that wasn’t family, and we are so impressed and relieved by the care and attention Claire provided for our kitties! We booked last minute before our trip, and she still made time to do a meet & greet and sent thorough notes and pictures while we were gone. We will definitely book with Claire again!”

About: I have 20+ years of experience caring for animals, including cats, dogs, and even three pet mice! I’ve cared for my own pets as well as friends’ and family members’ pets over the years, so I’m comfortable with animals of all different personalities and needs. I currently have two cats of my own, one of whom has medical needs, and I’d love to give your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets the time and attention they need, especially in the mornings and evenings. I’m also happy to help on weekends or care for your pets for multiple days in a row! I would treat your pets like my own, with the same love and care my boys receive! Whether you have a quiet kitty, a spicy kitty, a playful pup, or a dog who just wants some extra company, I’d be happy to help. Of course, I’ll make sure they’re fed, cared for, and have everything they need, but I also want them to feel loved and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll happily spend time with them, give them plenty of attention and affection, take them for walks if needed, and keep them company so they don’t feel so alone!

About: Big or small, I’ve probably kissed it on the nose! My vet hospital experience gives me the ability to acknowledge changes in each species better than most. I’m a lover of horses and cows, so big dogs wouldn’t be any different for me. I’m happy to administer medications, keep up with a training schedule/routine, keep up with their energy needs by going to the dog park or walks, etc. I’m known to be a confident, compassionate, and reliable person with animals. I’m a morning person! I’m available most mornings and evenings. My class schedule doesn’t have me on campus for extended periods of time. I don’t have classes on Fridays and am looking to do this as my main income source! I will happily respect your house rules, but I could cuddle all day long with the fur balls! Growing up, I was totally guilty of letting my dog in bed and giving some human food. Now, I understand the importance of discipline and routine. I’m happy to follow your routine and give ample pet kisses along the way! I am sure to treat every pet as my own. If I notice a lump, bump, cut, etc. I’m never one to assume you already know about it. Their happiness and health is my top priority.

“Couldn’t recommend Bailee highly enough! She took great care of my cat whilst I was away and kept in touch the whole time, had absolutely zero issues at all. She went above and beyond with a couple extra things I needed help with as well which was nice She made sure she was fed, had fresh water, played with her, spent time with her, and kept everything clean each day. It was clear she genuinely cared and treated her really well. If you’re looking for someone reliable and thoughtful to look after your cat (or any pet) I’d definitely recommend Bailee.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, so I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from young puppies and kittens to seniors. I have experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level. I’m patient, attentive, and love making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have classes Monday through Friday, generally between 10 AM and 1 PM, although my class times vary by day. I’m available to help before and after my classes, as well as on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and schedule to make sure they get the care and attention they need! Because I have two cats at home who don’t get along with dogs, I don’t offer pet care in my apartment. Instead, I’m happy to come to your home to care for your pets in their own familiar environment. I’ll follow your instructions and routines closely and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

About: Growing up with dogs all my life along with my animal science major I am well versed in medication routines, early morning to late night potty breaks, special dietary needs to the ones who have been loved past their youth and need a little extra care. I’ve been bit, scratched, slobbered and thrown up on so I can handle anything your pets have to offer. I’m working part time at a restaurant however I am more than willing to make time during off days for your fur-babies, walks and regular exercise, quick check ins and long stays I will make time to do. Pets are watched closely, mostly nearly medication administration and meal time. If desired I can feed at specific times and can adapt a medication schedule periodically for any and all fur babies.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Port Matilda

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 135 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Port Matilda. 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 Port Matilda. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 87% 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.
