Suzie took great care of our kitties while we were away for a week. We are repeat customers and love that she has gotten to know our pets over the months. She sends lots of fun pictures and pays attention to details while taking care of the kitties and dog. Highly recommend!

Heather was wonderful at taking care of our two cats!❤️ She was extremely punctual every time, leaving our kitties happy and fed. Moreover she kept our house clean from litter mess and even watered some plants so they don’t die. She provided plenty of pictures and feedback to keep us in a loop of what was going on at home. I will definitely book her service in the future!

Jen made this so easy. She came to meet my dog (Zelda) before I left for my trip, and I felt very comfortable leaving Zelda knowing that Jen was going to take great care of her. Jen sent picks of walking adventures and fetch. It really was helpful and easy! She took excellent care of Zelda (and me).

Lura is amazing, and I have her booked for many more days to come while I am at work so my new puppy gets the attention he needs. I am grateful for her time and effort today with my little guy.

About: I am a dedicated momma to 2 human teenager and 1 fur baby, Oliver. I've cared for multiple pets in our home, checked on neighbor's dogs when they're out of town, and also fostered dogs in need of a safe place to stay. We're a dog family through and through. I'm in between jobs right now so I'm available for walking, drop-ins, boarding, and day care and can take on short notice gigs. I can't wait to love on your fur baby! I have a very open and flexible schedule. I prefer to offer care M-F during the hours of 9:00 am and 9:00 pm, but I'm also flexible if the need arises! I always meet a new dog with gentleness and let them feel me out - smell my hand, don't approach them, give a treat, etc. I always stick to the instructions and routine provided by their family to keep the care as stress-free as possible for the pup. My goal in pet care is to make sure the dogs feel loved and cared for while their owners are away!

This was our first time with Leah as our dog sitter and our anxious lab/pit mix did great. He was tentative at first, as usual, but warmed up to Leah quickly. Leah was on time, responsive and took great care of our pup. We will be using Leah again in the future!

About: Having had dogs since I was born, and my entire life, I've always been the one in my family to teach them (sit, speak, paw, spin) and care for them when no one else is home. I have cared for a range of dog and cat breeds from when they were babies to in their old age. I hope to care for your animals too. I have a dog, I care for it everyday, and I am currently (June 2026) fostering another dog for a couple of weeks while its owner recovers from surgery. I take them on walks daily and play outside with them. We watch tv and sometimes I read to them (it doesn’t last, they get bored of it). As an owner of a dog with a chicken allergy I can understand specific needs, I prefer a more lax and chilled environment and my energy usually gets pets to follow.

About: I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities. From playful puppies to shy cats. I will take the time to make sure your pet is comfortable and safe at all times. Daytime walks are preferred, but will consider evening walks also. I’d be happy to help care for your furry family member while you away or busy. I offer dog and cat walking as well as drop in visits. I truly enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds. Whether it’s a quick walk, playtime, feeding or just some company and cuddles.

About: Hello, I’m Jess! I grew up around animals from the time I could walk until now. I’ve had dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, fish and a horse! I’ve always felt so comfortable and at ease around all kinds of animals and have always tried to help every animal I can (even if my parents didn’t appreciate it haha). I currently moved down to North Carolina with my cat and lived with 4 other cats, 4 dogs, and 6 birds before now. I also rescued a 9week old kitten from a dumpster a couple months ago! I’m really excited to have the chance to care for your fur babies while you’re unavailable! I can ensure they will stick to any schedule they may have, have any necessary medications on time, and are happy and safe before I let them have their “me” time! I’m currently working night shifts, part time, so I’m available during the day for our pets and late at night! I typically have 3 days off per week and am able to work around my work schedule to ensure your pets have the best care possible! I like to come in and figure out what I can do to make the fur babies days a little better! Make sure they have food, water, find some treats and toys for them, and have a field day of play! I always triple check that my home and my clients homes are clean and safe when I leave so we don’t risk accidents happening and so everyone can rest easy! My primary concern is always your pets safety and well-being, as well as my own, so you can rest assured your pets will remain in a safe and happy environment while I’m there!

About: I’ve been providing loving pet care and dog walking services since 2010, with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My background started in childcare as a nanny, where caring for the family’s pets naturally became part of the role. Over the years, that grew into extensive pet care experience including walks, drop-in visits, in-home care, vet visits, administering medications, basic training reinforcement, and grooming support. Caring for animals is more than just a side job for me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I love building trust with both pets and their owners, and I take pride in being dependable, consistent, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, routine care, or just a reliable person while you’re away, I’m here to help and treat them like family. I had the pleasure of being a stay-at-home mom to my 3 children for the last 12 years. I'm slowly merging back into the working world (part-time for now), but my dream would be to care for pets full-time. Currently, I'm available during the days my children are at school (8:30a.m.- 4p.m.) Monday-Friday. And 2 weekends out of the month, I'm completely available. Please let me know what you're looking for and there's a good chance I can make it happen, even outside these hours. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by adhering to their usual routines, whether that's in my home or yours. I will follow all instructions carefully--feeding schedules, medication needs, potty breaks, walks, etc. In a client's home, I'm very respectful of your space. I keep things clean, stick to agreed-upon areas, and make sure everything is left exactly how I found it. Safety and security for both you and your pet is my priority. I will monitor gates and doors, making sure they are secured as need be. When walking, I stay alert in the environment, monitoring all my surroundings. Your pet(s) will get plenty of TLC, attention, and playtime, taking note of their individual temperament and what it's calling for. Communication is very important to me. I will always send updates and photos so owners feel confident and at ease while they're away.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Powhatan

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Powhatan on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,882 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Powhatan. 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 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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
