“Amazing pet sitting. Kellen went above and beyond what I asked. I was on vacation in California to ask my fiancé to marry me and I accidentally locked the door where he couldn’t get in the house. He worked with me to get in to take care of my cat while I was gone and even brought in a package from the rain. Cannot recommend enough.”
“Meggie was great to work with and communicated. She took care of Gus so well. He warmed up to her, ate his food and kept his business in the litter box. I would definitely book her again.”
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have two dogs and three cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. I also have experience with rescue animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and comfort level. I’m patient, compassionate, and committed to making sure every animal feels safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, cuddling, or simply relaxing, I’ll do my best to make them feel right at home. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat your furry friends with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! ❤️🐶🐱 I do pet care full time and when I’m not caring for your pets I’m at home spending time with mine. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats who are my world and I love nothing more than to snuggle with them on my couch and binge watch a good series! My dogs go out every 2-4 hours and my cats never go outdoors. Anytime my dogs go outside they’re always on a leash and supervised.
“Luz is amazing. She took really great care of my cats. She is quick to respond to messages, and always sends great pics and videos. She went above and beyond when I ran out of cat food. She purchased more food to get my cats through the last day. I appreciate her actions so much. I will definitely be using her services again.”
About: I’m a fur mama of 4 beautiful babies! I’ve had a dog/pets since I was a toddler. I love all animals. They’re honest, loyal and good, thru and thru. I was a professional dog bather at my part time job after my long career at Lake City Army Ammunition Plant. All animals love me, some take a second to warm up, but I love earning their trust. My main girl that passed last June I wear in an urn necklace right next to the charm with my own mother’s ashes. I have so many stickers on my truck of my babies and anything fur baby related. One says, abuse an animal, go to jail. I couldn’t agree more, unless there’s a harsher punishment available, then I choose that. Animals are my life. Anything I can do for any animal in need, I’m doing it. And doing it with love. With that, I give you my word. Pet care IS my life. At work. Definitely at home with our 5 fur babies, and if I see a baby in need, I jump at the chance to help. Pet care is an honor and it brings me so much happiness and joy in my heart. Honestly, I wait on them hand and foot, and I love it. Any need, any time, I’m on it! And nothing could make me happier. I live to love and care for them. And I do it well. It’s my gift.
About: I have experience in clinic and shelter environments, especially with fearful or reactive pets. I also have experience with exotic animals and have taken care of personal pets my entire life! I’m reliable for feeding, walking, medicating, providing enrichment, and more. I’m currently available mornings, evenings, and overnight. With notice, I can invite animal-friendly small/medium pets into my home. For larger pets or those who don’t enjoy animal company, I can do drop-ins or walks at your home! I have my own friendly dogs and cats in my home. The small animals in my home are kept in a separate room. I have a long leash to give your pup some playtime outside, or we can take good walks on a regular leash. I can crate, medicate, or provide enrichment for your pets as needed (with instructions), always with compassionate care.
“Thank you so much Tiffany!! Sorry my cats are scaredy cats, but I'll work on that for future visits. Tiffany does great job looking after my kitties. Loved the pictures.”
“Always love when Rachel is available to check in on my fur baby. It’s nice when she’s been available whenever I need her for check ins. She is very reliable & follows my, hopefully, simple instructions. :)”
About: Friends, family, and co-workers often rely on me for dog and cat sitting. I have a pretty flexible schedule and have cared for small dogs and big dogs. I frequently go on walks when I’m off work and I’d like to take a dog with me. I’m not at the point in my life to have a dog of my own so I adore loving on other people’s fur babies! I’m pretty flexible early mornings and most evenings. I work a pretty standard job Monday through Friday and it would be no problem to work around it. I do not care for pets out of their own home. I prefer to watch pets in their own environment. I feel like that is best for them!
“Angie did a great job! We came back from out of town to a happy cat. It's difficult with our cat because he has to have a pill administered but Angie was able to! She's also a very professional communicator and makes you feel comfortable with her visiting every step of the way. Thank you Angie!”
About: I have had a dog ever since I was 10 years old. I got another dog shortly after and would take care of them both when my parents were away. I watch my neighbors two large dogs for weeks at a time. I enjoy taking dogs on walks outside and playing with them- I treat them as my own. I work another job part time, I go to work early and am usually done around 3 or 4. I am available most weekends all day and am available for overnight care. I am normally off Friday-Sunday. I have a big field in my backyard and am comfortable if you do not live in a fenced in area. I am comfortable putting pets in a crate as well.
“Destiny is amazing. She’s been my pet sitter for years (prior to Rover sign up.) While this visit was for checking in on my cat Destiny has always been an exceptional pet caregiver. She went above and beyond taking care of my older dogs prior to becoming a Rover sitter and I trust her implicitly caring for my animals. I come home and my pet is not anxious from my departure and it’s so relieving to know my cat is so well cared for while I’m away.”
“Lily was amazing with our cat in our home, who is not the friendliest cat in the world. Lily was very dependable, has amazing animal skills, sent great updates each day, and went above and beyond when we had issues with our travel plans. I would not hesitate to use Lily in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Jennifer was FANTASTIC! Her care was top notch and I felt so secure leaving my kiddos with her. I genuinely think that one of my cats, Toast was disappointed to see us, and not Jennifer. She gave great updates and photos at every visit and we appreciated her so much! I will absolutely contact Jennifer again for care of our kitties.”
About: Had dogs and cats my whole life. I have had as small of a dog as tea cup chihuahua and as big of a dog as a German shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix. Love cats too but honestly I'm more of a dog person. I have cat sit for friends and family before and happy to do that to!! I work full time in the operating room 7a-5:30p, except for Wednesdays and weeekends. I have two boys aged (age 3 and 5) every other weekend. Currently no pets but we've had dogs and the boys do well with small and big dogs alike. They loveeee cats. I let animals on my furniture, provide lots of snuggles, back/belly rubs, fetch, walks outside and happy to let off leash trained dogs roam in my backyard depending on the owners preferences and how well behaved the dog is. Happy to follow whatever schedule you need for you fur baby.
“Shelby is amazing and went above and beyond for our old kitty! She made extra time to make sure she got her meds even when our cat was putting up a protest and took the time to play and hang with her. She even watered our plants without us asking! Highly recommend and will definitely ask Shelby to sit again!”

Amazing pet sitting. Elise went above and beyond what I asked. I was on vacation in California to ask my fiancé to marry me and I accidentally locked the door where he couldn’t get in the house. She worked with me to get in to take care of my cat while I was gone and even brought in a package from the rain. Cannot recommend enough.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Raytown is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 November 2026, there are 375 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Raytown. 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.
