“Clareese was so sweet with my girls. She sent a million pictures and even a video, so I knew they were in good hands. Would absolutely book with her again in the future!!”
“Rose was excellent to work with. She was extremely flexible and attentive as we dealt with a fluid trip out of town due to the loss of a family member. She dealt with my diabetic cat’s medication smoothly and took such wondering care of my two cats while I was away. All instructions on feeding and cleaning were followed excellently and when I returned a day early, Rose was incredibly accommodating. We are incredibly grateful to have worked with Rose during a difficult time in our lives, she put our mind at ease with our cats while we were gone - we hope to work with her again!”
“Lucas was very reliable and professional in caring for our cat. Lucas even did some useful things we did not ask him to do, such as take out and bring back our garbage can.”
“Great job. Prompt responses. Sweet pictures of our little dude and he wanted us to add in the review she was super sweet and loving. 😻(He’s really in charge of things.)”
About: I work a corporate 9-5, M-F, but I can be available early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I primarily work from home, so I may be able to make mid-day drop-ins work if absolutely necessary. I respect kitties boundaries and preferences and strive to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I know how sensitive they can be to strangers or change, so I would love to follow whatever your standard routine is.
“David was so diligent and caring with our cats while we were out of town. He also communicated really well so even when we needed an additional visit we coordinated it very smoothly. I highly recommend him!”
“Gabrielle is an amazing cat sitter! She's so kind and obviously loves animals. She did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 kitties. We will absolutely ask her again and highly recommend her services.”
“Erin took great care of my cats and sent me tons of photos and videos of them playing. I can tell everyone was well cared for and got plenty of attention. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Tony did a wonderful job dropping in on my cat. Tony spent a lot of time getting to know her and from his updates I could tell she was very comfortable when he was visiting. Great check-ins, fun pictures, and I felt very assured my cat was being well cared for by Tony.”
“Thanks very much for taking care of our grumpy Percy! Also really appreciate the care you took to clean up his accident—I expected a total disaster when we got home but it was really easy to get totally clean (I could barely find the spot when I looked for it with our carpet cleaner!) and our upstairs didn’t smell at all.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful. She went above and beyond while cat sitting on short notice. Great communication. Will definitely try to book her again for future visits. Highly recommended.”
“My high maintenance kitty was so well-cared for - he usually is a nervous wreck when I get back from a trip but not after Breanna looked after him and I'm so grateful ??”
“Gary was great! He visited before our trip to meet the cats and he immediately established a warm rapport with our cats. It’s true that animals sense humans who care. They liked him from the start. He was reliable and sent photos of our fur babies daily which always made me smile and feel comforted that they were being well attended to. I highly recommend Gary as a top pet sitter”
“Lindsay is so accommodating with extra things I asked of her! She checked in with a lot of pictures and the cats loved her!! I would highly recommend her and use her for my next trip!”
“Disha was a loving and caring sitter, our little furball was very nice and comfortable with her, she finished all of our requests perfectly, and would recommend her to anyone in need of a wonderful sitter!”
“Erin is wonderful! Our two cats she usually sits for (almost 14 yo and 2 yo) aren't very high maintenance, but for our last sit we were fostering a kitten rescue, and she jumped right in! The kitten was new to our home and in the process of people socialized to humans. Erin didn't hesitate and did a great job helping us get him ready for his forever home. Also to note: we use pelletized bedding for cat litter and a sifter litter box, which has thrown previous cat sitters for a loop, but Erin has always done a great job keeping things cleaned and tidy while we're gone!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to connect with our neighbor Ann! Ann is a warm and direct communicator and was wonderful to work with. She is flexible, prompt, responsive, kept us informed, and was generous with extra gestures to look out for our home and cats while we were away for a week. We had never worked with a pet sitter we didn't already know personally, and Ann really put us at ease. Our cats were relaxed and well cared for when we got home. We're thankful to have met Ann and look forward to working with her in the future :) Thank you Ann!”
About: I'm a dog mom myself & I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care requires total peace of mind, which is why I prioritize strict attention to routine, safety, and proactive communication. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Rankin is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rankin
Kristiana did a great job. She reported it took a couple visits for everybody to warm up to her, but they did. We came home to happy, relaxed kitty cats ready to play with us. She also followed all our instructions/requests and kept us informed throughout our time away.
Vanessa took amazing care of our two cats while we were away, the daily photos showed happy playful kitties who were getting all the attention they craved! Clear communication and prompt arrival times the entire trip, I never had to worry and could fully enjoy our trip. Definitely would rebook with Vanessa.
Savannah did an excellent job caring for my senior cat, Phoebe, who has some special medical needs including a daily oral pill. I’m always nervous leaving Phoebe alone overnight, but Savannah’s prompt and thorough communication helped put my mind at ease. She gave her lots of care and attention during her visits with Phoebe and took great care of my home as well. I will definitely rebook with Savannah if we need a sitter in the future!
There are no words for how wonderful Breanna has been over the past few years with my high maintenance cat. I am actually reluctant to relocate for work because I know I'll never find a more kind and patient Mo-Whisperer (and a genuinely - like unnecessarily 😂 - talented photographer, which is a lovely bonus)

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 .

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.
