“Emma is amazing. We have 3 cats of various temperaments and she took very good care of them while we were gone for a week. We didn't worry about them once and we could tell they were content while we were gone. She will be our go to sitter from now on. Thanks Emma 🩷”
“Michael was wonderful! He took such great care of our cats while we were away for five days. He was super helpful, attentive, and made sure they always had plenty of food and water. I really appreciated the detailed notes and the pictures he sent each day—it gave us peace of mind knowing our babies were in good hands. We’ll definitely be happy to have Michael watch them again! 🐾”
“Whitney did a wonderful job caring for Cher, my 17-year-old cat, while I was out of town. My cat is very shy and nervous around people she does not know, but Cher felt comfortable enough around Whitney to let her pet her and play with her. That was a big win! I will definitely be calling on Whitney in the future!”
“10/10 EXPERIENCE! 🐾💕 Alake was absolutely AMAZING from start to finish! I genuinely could not have asked for a better sitter for my two girls! She went above and beyond, especially when it came to providing emotional support, patience, and reassurance for my pitty, who has been struggling with some anxiety. And somehow, she even managed to tame my wild child, Piggy, which is an accomplishment all on its own! 😂 What I appreciated most was the peace of mind she gave me while I was away. Being away from my girls can be stressful, but Alake made sure I felt comfortable, reassured, and confident that they were in loving hands. Her communication, compassion, and genuine care were everything I could have hoped for. She didn’t just take care of my dogs; she took care of my peace of mind, too. I am beyond grateful for her and would recommend her a thousand times over! I will absolutely be booking with her again! 💕🐶”
“I can’t say enough great things about Ella. She took extra time to make sure my cats were happy and went above and beyond any expectations. She took so much care to make sure my home was left in great condition and the cats loved her. I will absolutely use her again and highly recommend her. The peace of mind she gave me was priceless!”
“My dog and I absolutely LOVED Madie. She was kind, bubbly, and very attentive to all of our needs. I am a veterinarian and my dog has a back disease. I am always reluctant leaving my doggo with new people because of his disease, but I had full confidence and trusted Madie with him. If I can give 6 stars, I 100% would! Will most definitely be rebooking Madie for all of my pets needs.”
About: I provide compassionate and trustworthy pet care and treat every pet as if they were my own. Your fur baby’s happiness and comfort are always my top priority I know how important it is to feel at peace when leaving your pet, and I’m here to help with that. I currently have free full time availability as I am taking online college classes, I am available anyday anytime Monday-Sunday to help love and care for your pets. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. I follow all feeding instructions carefully, make sure they always have fresh water, give medications if needed, and keep their space clean. (I used to work in a veterinary office.) I spend quality time with them through walks, playtime, and gentle attention so they don’t feel lonely or stressed. I also watch closely for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates to the owner so they feel at ease.
“Natalia was great with our kitties. She may have even spoiled them a little. I was a bit nervous about having a 'stranger' in the house to look after our cats while we were out of town. The experience with Natalia was great. We received updates and photos daily. I was glad the cats didn't give her a hard time. One cat needs meds twice a day and is a little shy of others. Every photo I received was of both kitties looking nice and relaxed. This experience has made it a bit easier to plan ahead for my next trip.”
“Ezgi is kind, responsible, and took great care of my cat, Fable, while we were out of town on short notice! She left my home clean, Fable happy and well-cared for, and Ezgi was responsive and easy to communicate with. I’d recommend her :)”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets since the age of 13. I have worked with all ages from young and untrained to senior animals with special needs. I am a trusted animal care employee for many families in my home town. I currently have a hybrid/remote, full time job that allows me to have a significant amount of flexibility around my location and hours. This will give me plenty of time to take care of/ pay attention to your animal babies:). I live in an apartment complex with an outdoor, fenced dog park and lots of walkable paths. I live with 2 kittens in this small space, so I prefer not to board. If circumstances require it, I can absolutely be flexible in whatever care is needed!
About: Since I was 10 years old, I’ve cared for all kinds of animal babies: cats, dogs, bunnies, reptiles, even birds. I even have 12+ years of working in the veterinary field, so I have the bonus of that knowledge and experience. Currently, I care for my own fur-family of cats, rabbits, and a ball python. I am very passionate for thorough and appropriate care for animal-babies, so they can have the best possible life. My specific area of passion and focus currently is for the kitties and bunnies, so I will be offering my pet-sitting services primarily for those fur-babies. If other kinds of pet-babies are in the household, I will evaluate that on a case-by-case basis. I am excited and ready to care for your kitty-babies and other kinds of fur-babies 😉 My typical schedule has me doing various things during the day (i.e. another job, personal furbaby care/quality time, other personal ventures). Thus, the best times for me to care for your fur-babies would be morning and night. I am not available for mid-day drop ins at this time. I am available for 2 drop-in visits (morning & night) per day per pet parent, 30 minutes to 1 hour per visit. I will update my availability/schedule if this changes in the future. Upon confirmation of booking, I require a “meet & greet” with NEW pet-babies and owners prior to the care dates. This will allow me to meet everyone, to make sure I’m a good fit for the fur-babies, and to familiarize myself with the family’s care and routine. My goal is for pet-parent(s) and pet-babies to feel as comfortable as possible, so this process will help me do just that. I also require that all cat and other fur-babies (when applicable) to be up to date on core vaccines and parasite control (flea/tick), as this will help keep everyone I care for outside and inside my home safe and healthy.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive hands on experience with a wide variety of pets. I've had pets my whole life and have cared for them through everything, from administering medications and bathing them to all the usual daily care. My background includes working on a farm where I cared for the goats, cows, chickens, and a little barn cat! so I'm comfortable with many different kinds of animals. My schedule is primarily open in the afternoons, but I get off fairly early, which allows me that flexibility to provide the attention and care pets need whenever required. I'm currently working part time! I work morning shift so i'm always free in the evenings! I get off no later than 3PM! Which leaves time for me to spend the evening loving and caring for your pets! I always ask owners about their dog's specific preferences and routines to ensure their comfort and happiness during their stay. I'll make sure to note down exactly what your dog enjoys and how they like to spend their time and energy, all while keeping the home tidy and the pets happy.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals, specifically family pets, since I was a young girl! I currently have a kitten of my own named Astra. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs. My patience runs deep with shy or nervous pets. However, I do thoroughly enjoy playing with both cats and dogs! If they need to cuddle, go on walks, or just need a little attention, count me in! My experience as a teacher makes me responsible, dependable, and very attentive to routines and instructions. With me, I hope you can feel confident that your pet will be genuinely cared for while you’re away! I work as a teacher during the week, so I’m primarily available for pet care on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I can also accommodate some weekday evenings depending on the location and my work schedule. On weekends, I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and spending quality time with your pets. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, litter boxes, routines, and household rules. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and will make sure your pet has a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: My name is Ashe and I absolutely love animals of all kinds. I have grown up with and trained dogs and cats of my own my whole life. Additionally, I have experience with handling multiple dogs of various breeds, ages, and temperaments; as well as cats, reptiles, fish, small animals, and even a few exotic animals through my time spent working at PetSmart for the past three years, and with helping care for animals of loved ones. I am affordable and also have a reliable car, so can make sure I am there to feed, water, walk, cuddle, and love on your pets whenever they need me.

I am energetic, self-motivated, and eager to care for whatever animals might come my way. I look forward to hearing from you! I currently work 7:45-5:30 Monday through Thursday with a lunch break, and 7:45 to 1 on the first two Fridays of the month (off the 2nd two Fridays), with weekends off. I am able to take care of your babies before work, visit them on my lunch break, and spend the evening with them as well as the full weekends. I make sure they always have fresh water and food available, get whatever walks or playtime they need (indoor or outdoor), and give lots of snuggles and love to them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 273 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Pungo. 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.
