“Mindy is great! They’ve taken care of our pups multiple times and we’ll keep booking so long as they’re available. Great and timely communication, wonderful care, cute pics of our pups.”
“Elizabeth is such a kind human and went above and behind to take care of our two kitties & home! I would highly recommend booking with her and will definitely use her in the future :)”
“Cynthia took great care of our older cat during our extended vacation. Usually, we use the boarding services of our vet but since we were going to be gone for an extended period of time, we decided to use Rover. Being a bit apprehensive at first, Cynthia put us at ease during our meet and greet with her friendly demeanor while explaining to us how she would take care of our cat during her daily visits. Our cat is shy and tends to hide but Cynthia was so good with her that after a few days she was waiting at the door for her arrival. Each visit, we received detailed and thoughtful updates with pictures. Our cat received excellent care and attention from Cynthia and we would not hesitate to use her again. We highly recommend Cynthia.”
“Lindsay is professional, courteous, and reliable. She was great with our furry babies, and it’s clear how much she loves and understands animals. We appreciated her consistent and timely updates as well as her knowledge and experience with cats. Grateful to have such an amazing pet sitter!”
“Thank you for being so good to my baby girl! And thank you for always being flexible and available. Great job. I look forward to many more years of working together to ensure queen Maddie is always well cared for.😜”
About: Hi! I’m an incoming college freshman triple-major and a devoted pet sitter who absolutely adores pets of all sizes and personalities. I treat every pet like my own Ziggy, with lots of patience, engaging playtime, and lots of love. I’ve been babysitting pets since 13. I love all pets and I’ve sat for cats, dogs, caged animals, and fish. I love taking cute photos of your pets (which i’ll send as often as you’d like!) and brushing them. My summer is completely focused on taking care of your pet. I have no jobs or schooling scheduled, and my schedule is completely open to pet sittings all summer! In your home, please walk me through where your pets food is, their favorite hiding spots, their toys, etc. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable regardless of the fact that their family is not home.
“Trinity did an excellent job taking care of our boy Sokka. He always looked so happy in her company in the photos, and we came home to a cat that wasn't entirely mad at us for being away as a result. Trinity also did a great job with his feeding and medicine schedule, and was great at keeping us informed and communicating. Would definitely book with Trinity again!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets both personally and through friends for over 7 years. I’m a dedicated cat mom to two cats of my own, so I understand feline behavior, routines, and how important patience and trust are when caring for cats. I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and giving lots of affection (on your cat’s terms!). In addition to caring for my own cats, I’ve also provided boarding and in-home care for my friends’ dogs for many years. I have experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your pet is energetic or shy, I always take time to understand their personality and routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I work full-time with flexible hours, so I’m available for drop-in visits after 5 PM on weekdays and have flexible availability on weekends. I’m happy to accommodate evening visits and can be flexible with timing on Saturdays and Sundays based on your pet’s needs. When I visit pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. For each drop-in, I make sure your pet is fed on schedule, has fresh water, and gets plenty of attention and care. I clean litter boxes, refresh food and water bowls. For cats, I move at their pace — giving them space when needed and affection when they want it. I spend time playing, brushing (if they enjoy it), and making sure they feel comfortable and calm. For dogs, I provide potty breaks, short walks (if requested), feeding, and playtime to help keep them happy and relaxed. I always take a few minutes to check each pet’s overall well-being and will let you know if I notice anything unusual. I also send photo updates and messages so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in your absence.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, so I have years of experience in providing compassionate, reliable care for pets of all ages and sizes. I take great pride in making sure dogs feel loved and comfortable, whether it’s through daily walks, playtime, or ensuring they follow their regular routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and happy, and I treat every dog like they're my own. If you’re looking for someone who is not only dependable but also genuinely loves dogs, I’d love the opportunity to help with your pet care needs. I'm currently working remote with lots of flexibility in my schedule so have plenty of time to play with your pups! Also If you're planning a get away let me know I'm happy to accommodate your preferred dates/schedule. Very comfortable following your fur baby's regular routine so they feel safe, happy, and keep their preferred schedule/rule guidance for optimal health. Pets sense that I'm an animal lover that initiates trust.
“Andrew took great care of Shadow while we were out of town. He sent updates and pictures which gave us peace of mind. He even braved the April snow storm to make sure Shadow was taken care of. Our pup was happy and healthy when we got home.”
“Mark was fabulous with our rambunctious teenage newf and great about keeping in touch with an anxious dog mom. Hagrid was happy to have us home but not upset we had been gone for several days. Thanks Mark!”
“Ardelle came to our place to do a meet & greet with our dog. Our very anxious Bear warmed up to her instantly! As we talked through all of our dog's needs, Ardelle was very friendly, receptive, and knowledgeable. She has a lot of working dog experience and it shows! That put me at ease really quickly and I'm confident that our dog will be safe & happy in her hands. Thank you, Ardelle!”
About: I have experience with my current dog after going through several months of behavioral training as a puppy. I also have experience with senior dogs and cats growing up at my parents home. I also know how to administer medicine both orally and through ear medicine for cats. During the week, early mornings, late afternoons and evenings are best. On the weekends, late afternoons and evenings are best. With enough time, I can accommodate noon appointments. Feeding, outside time, cleaning litter box, and playing/exercise time will all be standard, but it depends on the needs of the cat. I can also administer medicine as well. If boarding at my own home, dogs will have a fenced yard for exercise.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Preston is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Preston
Cynthia did a wonderful job taking care of our cat while we were away. She was a good communicator, provided updates, and helped us feel confident that our pet was in good hands throughout our trip. It was such a relief to know we didn't have to worry while we were gone. I would absolutely recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog and cat sitter than Katie! She recently watched all three of our animals for drop-in visits while we were out of town. She was always punctual, incredibly attentive, and clearly cared deeply about our animals. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such amazing hands. Katie was fantastic about keeping us updated—regular messages, thoughtful check-ins, and plenty of pictures that reassured us our pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Honestly, when we got home, we’re pretty sure our animals were a little bummed we were back and Katie was gone—that’s how much they loved her. We wholeheartedly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter. She’s truly exceptional.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Preston on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 5,902 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Preston. 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 Preston. On Rover:

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.
