About: I’ve been in a Rover family taking care of dogs and cats of varying age and kind since I was 9! I love playing with your pet(s) and going on walks with them! Hello! I’m currently working part time as I complete grad school. Because of this, I have a very flexible schedule to work around your busy one and have plenty of time and availability to love on and care for your pet. My family grew up with our own dogs and we watched many dogs over the years. Now, I love getting to know new furry animals and taking care of them myself! Under my care, your furry family member will receive many walks, pets, and lots of play.
“Vicki is fantastic! This is the second time that she's pet sat for me, and I'm so thankful that she was able to do so over a major holiday. She not only attended to my cat's needs, she also took the time to shower him with love and attention. It's obvious that he adores her! I feel so much better about going out of town knowing that he is in safe hands.”
“Lesly was amazing! She took great care of my cat, and didn’t bat an eye at the health issues my cat’s been having and the creative ways we were having to work around them. Lesly was super proactive and helpful, I would definitely ask for her to watch her again.”
“I cannot say "thank you" enough! Claudia and Alexis boarded my 3 young kittens for almost a week while I was away on a business trip. I received daily updates and knowing they were in good hands gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend!!!”
“Danielle is going to be our new cat sitter from now on any time we go out of town! She is amazing! Simba is old and doesn’t like new people, but she was able to give him his pill every day! He made a new friend! He even let her pet him, and he usually doesn’t like women. She is the cat whisperer!”
“Christina made me feel comfortable that our cat Finnley was in good hands while I was away. Finnley loved her and all the attention that she gave. I especially appreciated all of the photos and visit notes. I would definitely book with Christina again.”
About: I’ve always grown up around all different types of animals from dogs and cats to snakes and fish so I have had lots of practice. I have had many family members, family friends and friends of my own ask for help and I’m always so happy to do so!! I am currently taking an online class for college so I am available almost any time and any day. I cannot do Saturday’s because I live with a toddler so I stay home and visit with family on the weekend, but other than that I am free, so why not spend it with cuties!? I always keep up with the animals that are in my care I always make sure I’m paying attention to what they eat, how much they are eating, making sure they have water at all times, I make sure to take them on at least 2-3 walks a day depending on how long they are in my care! I also make sure to provide them some fun and playtime so they are not alone all day or in a kennel cooped up all day either.
“Shannon was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Benji over the two days she watched him. From the very beginning, she was warm, communicative, and super attentive. I received regular updates with pictures and videos, and it brought me so much peace of mind knowing Benji was in such good hands. She walked him, fed him! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and enjoys what she does. Benji looked so happy and comfortable with her, and I could tell he had a great time. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future, thank you so much, Shannon!”

About: I have lifelong experience caring for a wide variety of animals. With cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I'm comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra gentleness and patience. Beyond cats and dogs, I have experience with small animals including ferrets, rabbits, and rodents. I understand that each species has unique needs — ferrets need supervised playtime and mental stimulation, rabbits require a calm environment and proper diet, and rodents need safe handling and clean, comfortable spaces. I'm experienced in medicating animals of all kinds, including oral medications, drops, and topical treatments — even with pets that can be resistant. Please note that I'm not able to accommodate aggressive large or extra large dogs, as safety is my top priority for all animals in my care. No matter the species, I approach every animal with patience, love, and respect. Your pet is in caring, knowledgeable hands. Pet care is not just something I do — it’s a natural part of who I am. I currently care for multiple pets of my own daily, so feeding schedules, medication routines, playtime, and check-ins are already built into my day from morning to night. My routine starts early with morning feedings and care, midday check-ins, and evening wind-downs — so visiting or hosting your pet fits seamlessly into what I already do every single day. I’m home frequently, which means pets in my care are never left alone for long periods. On a weekly basis I stay on top of clean environments, health monitoring, and making sure every animal is happy and thriving. Pet care is my passion and my lifestyle — not just a side task. I care for pets in my own clean, cozy, and pet-friendly home where they receive 24/7 love, supervision, and attention. I provide a safe, calm space and follow their routines closely. I send frequent updates so you always feel connected and confident.
“Whatever I say here will not do justice to how incredible my experience has been with Ariel. She is PHENOMENAL! I have left my kitten Croissant with several cat sitters and boarders in the past, and nothing and no one has come close to giving me the peace of mind I had leaving my cat with her. Ariel looked after her for 9 days, at my place; by the end of the period, my cat felt Ariel was her mum! Croissant looked happy, healthy and well looked after. Also - the fact that Ariel left my place in mint condition and even showed the courtesy to do the laundry etc. was such a nice touch and very much appreciated. It goes without saying Ariel is my go-to sitter moving forward. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!”

About: 30+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes—from Chihuahuas to Malamutes. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, and seniors needing extra patience and care. I’ve volunteered at veterinary offices and trained under a professional dog trainer, so I understand dog behavior, basic health needs, and safe handling. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or sitting, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and on their routine. Reliable, attentive, and experienced—you can trust your dog is in good hands. Currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for care. I’m available for daily walks, drop-ins, and playtime throughout the week after 4pm, with open availability for boarding, extended stays, and weekend care. I’m happy to accommodate both regular weekly schedules and last-minute needs whenever possible—your dog’s routine and happiness come first. Safe, two-story home with a fully fenced yard in a quiet, low-traffic Lake Houston community. Nearby trails and dog parks for plenty of exercise. I prioritize supervision, secure spaces, and a calm environment so your pup feels safe and at home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Porter
Bre took such good care of my baby kitties. They clearly were comfortable with her and acclimated quickly to her. Even one of my most shy cats took a liking to her pretty quickly, which was so heartwarming for me. She followed every instruction carefully and took great pictures. Great job and I’m so thankful for her care. Highly recommend her services.
Aziza took great care of my cat! She followed all the instructions I left her. She was very sweet with him and spent a lot of time playing with him and brushing him. She sent plenty of photos and updates throughout her visits, which I really appreciated. It was her first time caring for him, so I was very happy to see him so comfortable! I will definitely be requesting her services again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Porter is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 2,146 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Porter. 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.

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.
