“Jolynn was available for us on short notice and followed all of the instructions we gave her for our two needy cats, we got photo updates for every drop-in and even our skittish cat warmed up to her. Highly recommend and will keep her in mind if we ever need a cat sitter in the future.”
“We were very happy with Elena checking on our 2 cats while we were away for Spring Break. She sent us a handful of pictures each day and communicated frequently which gave us piece of mind.”
“Jessica was wonderful! She took excellent care of all of our pets. She was always on time and provided very detailed updates on how our pets were doing. We highly recommend her!! 😊”
“Katie was beyond fantastic!! She made sure to get to know us and our (6) cats prior. And while visiting them, she took extra attention/time with our old lady cat to ensure she ate enough. Gave lots of scratches to our other furrbabies, sent us pics each day, and even cleaned up some (not so pleasant) ‘cat mess’ for us. Will be requesting her again any time we have to travel!!”
“This was our first experience with Joan and we couldn’t be more pleased. Our cat Macey was very happy and relaxed. Joan took excellent care of her and communicated with us every step of the way. Highly recommend her!”
“Riann genuinely seems to love animals! She quickly picked up on each of my kittens’ personalities and even went out of her way to block off some small wires in our garage that they had been playing with—something I hadn’t even noticed. She was cheerful, dependable, and clearly attentive to their safety and well-being. I’d use her again without hesitation!”
“I appreciate Brittany checking on Luca and Zoe while I was out of town. Brittany was great at communicating with me about her visits and how the kittens were doing. I will definitely hire her again.”
“Meagan really came through for us! This was first time using Rover and she was so great with the cats sending cute pictures each visit and playing with them. I will definitely request her again.”
“Michelle was fantastic! We have a crew of cats that have some special requests (e.g. dietary restrictions and rotations since some don’t get along) and Michelle did a wonderful job checking on them and giving them some attention in our absence. Always a relief when you find someone you can trust!”
“We want to express our gratitude for the excellent care Becky provided. It was comforting to know that both our cats, one shy and one picky, warmed up to her quickly. The peace of mind knowing our pets were happy is truly invaluable. We can confidently recommend her services, as we don't have to worry about them while we are away. We appreciate the care she provided.”
“We think Ainsley did amazing. First she was able to watch our dog (Fidelis) at such short notice. Second she did everything we asked. And most importantly cared for and loved our dog like a family member. Great job Ainsley! Hope to be able to have you again for next time. Thank you. My wife really appreciate all that you have done.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I am responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or providing companionship, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of following routines and treating every pet like they’re my own. I'm a college student with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. I have time throughout the week to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I understand that pets thrive on routine, and I'll do my best to follow your pet's normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and happy. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and house rules. I take time to build trust with each pet, provide plenty of attention and supervision, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you're away. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know how your pet is doing.

I work full time as a Business Development Manager. I am pretty open on the weekends for all day and night care and on Mondays! I will always respect your rules. Please let me know what I can do to make it as familiar to your pet as much as possible!
“Sarah was a wonderful sitter for our fur babies while we were away! She was able to book on short notice, which was very much appreciated. She spent so much time with our kitties, which I’m sure they loved! I got the cutest photos and Sarah kept me updated with each visit. I’m very pleased and would book with her again! :)”
“His Honda was great!!! She sent pictures every time she visited and our pets looked very happy!! Both our dog & cat were happy & calm when we returned!! Will 100% be asking Yushonda back if she’ll have us! -)”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rankin
We really enjoyed Carissa and she did a great job taking care of our senior cat. She stood out immediately by taking detailed notes and asking great questions when she came to me us and our cat. We were unsure how our cat would react to a stranger giving him a pill every night, but Carissa was patient and gentle and she was successful. We would most certainly invite Carissa back to watch our cat in the future.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rankin on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of September 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 .

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 Rankin. 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.
