We had such an amazing experience with Emma. We felt so comfortable to leave Bruno with her whilst we went on vacation and she went above and beyond. Emma sent us multiple updates daily with lots of pictures and really made us feel at ease. You can really see the love and dedication Emma has for pets, we would 100% recommend Emma for any of your pet sitting needs!

Karlie was exceptional watching our Arlo. She was able to spend the entirety of the evening with her as we requested, I would absolutely recommend and book her in the future.

Meagan is amazing! She really makes sure you can leave your pets feeling like she will handle it. Plus I got home from a friday night shift & she had tidied up my living room area where we all hangout. She truly is the best & she cares for your animals as if they’re her own. I would leave more than 5 stars if I could! Such a great experience every time with her.

Shanna was absolutely great with our cat while we were away. She has excellent communication and always made us feel comfortable during drop-in visits by sending plenty of pictures and updates daily. We highly recommend Shanna and would definitely request her to pet sit again in the future.

About: I’ve had experience watching dogs for my entire life. I know how to give medicine, including injections, to dogs and cats. I am also certified in first aid and have completed a “Stop the Bleed” course. I’m available most days with a few days notice. I am able to come over and walk your dogs or just spend time with your pets. I can easily come to you and do whatever is needed. Walks, feedings, etc. I am very attentive and love to play with your pets.

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, and that hands-on experience is what truly sets me apart. I was raised with three cats (2 indoor, 1 outdoor), caring for them from kittenhood all the way through end-of-life care, including demanding daily routines and administering medication. I also have two dogs of my own: a Mini Australian Shepherd I raised from a puppy and personally trained. He’s so smart he keeps me on my toes, which means I know exactly how to handle high-energy, high-drive breeds and the escape artists of the dog world. The other is a large pitty mix we adopted at age two who came to us with leash pulling, reactivity, excessive barking, and rough play habits, all of which I've worked through and successfully managed. I know how to confidently handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Beyond cats and dogs, I've owned two guinea pigs, a hamster, and fish, so I understand the specific and often overlooked needs of small pets too. I've also assisted my sister in fostering cats, many of whom were shy, post-surgical, or required medication and special feeding instructions, so I'm completely comfortable with pets that need a little extra patience and TLC. Most recently, I pet sat a kitten over spring break 2026, and I'm always happy to sit for other pet owners' animals as well. As a sophomore in Alpha Chi Omega, I bring the same reliability, respect, and communication to pet sitting that I bring to everything I do. I treat every pet as if they were my own, follow your routines to the letter, and love keeping owners in the loop with regular updates, photos, and videos, as often as you'd like. If you're looking for someone experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animals, I'm your person! I currently only have one exam left, so my schedule is essentially wide open! I'm in Blacksburg and available May 9–12 and May 16–22, with virtually nothing on my plate during those windows. Whether you need someone for a full house sit, multiple check-ins throughout the day, early morning visits, or late night drop-ins, I can make it work. Flexibility is my strong suit right now, so don't hesitate to reach out no matter the timing or frequency! I'm happy to care for pets both in my home and in yours! For in-home sitting and visits at your place, I'm completely comfortable following whatever routine, rules, and setup you have in place, your home, your way. If you'd like your pet to stay with me, I welcome that too! Just note that I live in an apartment, so I don't have a fenced-in yard, but my complex has a dog park and is surrounded by beautiful neighborhood nature trails that are perfect for walks and exploring. I'd also ask that you send everything your pet needs along with them (crate, food/water bowls, bed, toys, leash, etc.) so they have the comfort of their own familiar belongings, which is honestly better for them anyway!

Gabrielle was amazing! We were out of the country and our pet sitter had to leave early on our last day as we were traveling back home. We worked everything out with Gabrielle through the app. She showed up when we needed her to, and she did everything we needed so we didn’t worry about our babies as we were traveling home. I will definitely use her again, and I would recommend her without hesitation. And our babies seemed to love her!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and am very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and temperaments. I currently have a senior dog of my own, so I’m especially attentive to routine, patience, and reading body language. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications, crate routines, and giving pets the attention they need while you’re away. I understand how important consistency and safety are, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I work remotely and have the capacity to be available whenever needed, including those that need multiple walks, medications or play time throughout the day. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible — same feeding times, walk schedule, and familiar environment. I always double-check doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses before and after walks, and I’m attentive to surroundings while outside. I treat your home with respect and leave everything as I found it. For drop-ins and walks, I focus on safety, patience, and clear communication. I’ll send updates and photos so you know your pet is comfortable and cared for. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away.

I've only used Paula once so far, but she was wonderful. Booked her for 7 days, and she was always on time or early. My dog, Sirius, can be a pain with new people and took him a bit to warm up. She took him on a walk, and he was hooked. I will definitely use again if she is available.

About: Hi, my name is Carly! I currently have an almost three year old chocolate lab named Belle. I enjoy taking her on walks around our neighborhood and snuggling on the couch. I have assisted with caring for our family pets while growing up, neighbors pets, and my own. I really enjoy spending time with animals. I do have a full time job, but can assure you that your fur-baby will be well cared for. Please contact me with any questions! I work full time during the week but will walk your dog before and after the work day and have plenty of play and snuggle time in the evening. I currently live in an apartment so my in home services are limited but I love to explore new areas and would enjoy taking care of your fur baby in its own neighborhood/home!

I think our house was cleaner than when we left too, 10/10 will be using every time we go out of town!

About: I have been a dog owner for 10 years! I also have owned cats and ferrets in the past! I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors. I currently live in the Virginia Beach area but live and go to school at William and Mary where I have pets I care for regularly! I do work about 20 hours a week at my regular job but typically do not work until later in the afternoon. When I have taken care of pets in the past, I found it to be very easy to fit it in to my schedule. I will treat and respect your space like it is my own space. I will be sure to care for your pets as if they are my own.

Janie was great company to Oreo and fulfilled all her needs. She cleaned well and even vacuumed stray litter! I really appreciated having her care for my baby cat as I was stuck in Florida due to hurricane Milton, it eased my mind to know that Oreo was in her care. She talked to her very sweetly and was very proactive about things she needed, asking questions about her food and about how to clean up well. Thanks so much Janie!! 🩵

About: I am a veterinary assistant at an animal hospital so working with and dealing with animals is nothing new to me! Whether small chihuahuas or large st Bernard’s, animals of all shapes, sizes, breeds, or ages are welcome and accepted! I have experience giving medications (oral and injectable), monitoring health, accommodating based on behavior, age, or disability, and will be happy to learn and execute any specific needs/tasks needed for your babies! All animal species welcome: 🐶🐱🐰🐹🐤🐵🐴🦉 Please note: I am a full-time vet assistant, therefore, most care will be provided before work, or after work. Please be aware of how constant your pets need care/supervision before moving forward. My job involves caring for animals on a daily basis, so taking care your furry friends is nothing new to me! No job is too much! I have two furry friends at home, so I’m experienced in daily animal behavior and care. If your pets require specific care, that is not a problem and can easily be done once advised.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Pungo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 940 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 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 Pungo. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
