About: I managed to survive caring for my Samoyed from birth to full size. He was and still is high maintenance, and I believe he has prepared me well. I am not currently employed and am preparing for law school next year. I am available any day of the week at any time :) I stick to a strict food and walk schedule with my dog so that he does not have to wait any longer than he should. I keep an eye out for hotspots or any irregularities, and address it right away. Most importantly, I treat every animal like my best friend.

About: I try to take parts of Cesar Milan's strategy with dogs specifically. Trying to not reward bad behavior. Making sure a pet can respect my boundaries. Currently have a dog walking client at Winding Brook Condominiums in Meriden. I’m there twice a day for 30 minute walks and play. I bought some balls for her so she can play. Have videos and lots of photos. I work flexible hours as an independent contractor so I make my own schedule. I am building my pet care business so I am signing up for a drone pilots license for pet recovery. I am also working on upgrading my vehicle to a minivan. I am offering pet sitting in your home until that can change to my home. I am needing different things done to my home before I can bring pets to my house.

“Alex was kind. Personable, and most importantly took fantastic care of my creatures. She left the apartment in the same shape I found it, and worked with me on the peculiar entrance and exit methods. Would 100% re book and I’m very thankful for her help.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve always loved spending time with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I also have experience caring for dogs while babysitting for families, including feeding them, taking them outside, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I’m responsible, dependable, and would love the opportunity to help care for your dog like they’re my own! I’m currently a graduate student, so I have a pretty flexible schedule with plenty of openings between my classes. This gives me a lot of availability throughout the week, and I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s normal routine! I always want pets to feel safe and comfortable around me. I allow each animal to move at their own pace when getting to know me and give them the time and space they need to build trust. I never force interactions and will always respect your pet’s boundaries while making sure they feel cared for and loved.

I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, so I take the time to make each pup feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, and plenty of attention. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll provide patient, personalized care while respecting their comfort and boundaries. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in loving hands! 🐾❤️ I am a part time college student and worker. I am very flexible for the most part. I'm always open to discussing anything that fits both of our schedules so please don’t hesitate to contact me! I currently only offered house sitting, but depending on the animals needs and the routine the owner introduces me too is how the fur baby will be taken care of.

About: I provide overnight boarding in my spacious, spotless apartment in Orange. Dogs in my care are treated like family: never crated unless requested, always supervised, and given plenty of love, cuddles, and regular walks throughout the day. I've cared for dogs of friends, family, and neighbors for years and understand that leaving your pet requires real trust. Your dog will have a calm, clean, private home environment, not a kennel. I'm a working professional with a flexible schedule, so your pup will never be left alone for long. Small to medium breeds welcome! work full-time during weekdays but pets are never left alone for more than 4 hours at a time. Mornings start with feeding, outdoor time, and play before I head to work. I’m fully available evenings, nights, and weekends. Overnight stays are my specialty — your pet will have company throughout the evening and morning when they need it most. I can accommodate last-minute bookings and am flexible with drop-off and pick-up times Your pet will stay in my spacious, clean private home in a quiet Milford neighborhood just minutes from the Long Island Sound, complete with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and fresh air. I have a 4-year-old Tibetan Spaniel named Peaches who is calm, gentle, and friendly with both dogs and cats — making her the perfect low-key companion for visiting pets. She’s easygoing and won’t overwhelm anxious or shy animals. Cats have their own dedicated private room with daily cleaned litter boxes, fresh water, and cozy spots to relax — completely separate from dogs for a stress-free stay. I provide daily photo and text updates so you always know your fur baby is happy and safe. No crates unless specifically requested — just a warm, loving home environment.

About: I got my first puppy at 13—a German Shepherd/Pitbull mix. I trained him in a variety of tricks and commands, and even helped him overcome his fear of cats, which he now loves! Since then, I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I truly love spending time with animals, and I’m especially passionate about training them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently available every week day after 4 pm as I am working part time and going to school. As for the weekends, I am available anytime! I make sure to not only take care of an animal’s basic needs—like food, water, and exercise—but also ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and secure with me. I always go at their pace and never force interaction, allowing them to come around on their own terms. For dogs, this means providing food, water, exercise (walks and playtime), and of course, plenty of love. For cats, I focus on making sure they feel comfortable, have their food and water, lots of affection, and engaging playtime!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Prospect

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Prospect is $13 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $1 and $26 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 1,349 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Prospect. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 , 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.
