“Andrea has been so good to my mini dachshund. My dog is sometimes anxious, stubborn, and can lash out a bit if she is triggered. But Andrea has remained patient and given me frequent updates on her visits. She is great!!”
“Meranda did such an awesome job watching my cats. One of them is a senior who requires an inhaler. She made sure both of them were well cared for & both my cats took to her right away. The communication was awesome and 100% would recommend her :)”
“Shanikka did a great job taking care of my cat Scout while I was away. She was very reliable even when I had to make a last minute change to my schedule. She also sent updates and pictures of Scout playing which was reassuring during my trip!”
“Crystal was amazing with my cat! She was always on time, very respectful of my home by always taking off her shoes and my cat absolutely adored her. I really appreciated all of the pictures while I was away and I knew my fur baby was being well taken care of. Would happily have Crystal come again when I'm away in the future!”
“Nina was such a big help when I needed someone to drop in on Winnie with such a last minute notice! She was prompt and took lots of pictures for me and gave updates! She is great!”
“Callie has taken care of our dogs multiple times and always does a wonderful job. Is very good at sending photos and keeping you up to date. Would HIGHLY recommend!”
“Siri was a delight to work with. Her own introduction here on Rover is just the beginning. Over a long holiday, Siri’s plan, approach, visits, support for both our cat and dog, communications, consistency, and follow up were impeccable. She put our minds at ease and earned our trust. I’m happy to say that we found someone that we can count on.”
“Our kitty is a little shy and I was worried she wouldn’t come out much while we were gone but Lindsay sent some cute pics of her and our girl every day. Our cat clearly felt super comfortable with her, and it was so nice to not have to worry about her while we were away.”
“Olivia is great! She communicated very well before and during our trip. She made sure to give both our cats some cuddles and play time and sent pictures of course. She left the house in great shape even better than most. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our babies while we were gone.”
About: Hi, I’m Azya! Animals have always been a huge part of my life—I have two sweet cats and a silly Great Dane of my own, and I’ve spent the last three years volunteering at a local farm caring for horses, goats, pigs, chickens, rabbits, and more. I also have experience working in animal hospitals with cats and dogs, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just making sure your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. With three pets of my own and several farm animals that I’m responsible for weekly, pet care is a huge part of my daily routine. I currently work part time a few days a week and have open availability in the afternoons and evenings so there’s plenty of flexibility in my schedule. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, safe environment where they’re treated just like part of the family. Because of my background working in a veterinary clinic, I’m confident handling pets with different needs, including giving medications or extra care if required. No matter where I’m caring for them, safety, trust, and comfort always come first.
“I had the absolute pleasure of having Mikaela stop by and care for my cats while my husband and I were away, and I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about the experience! She spent quality time with them, made sure their food and water were taken care of, gave them plenty of attention and cuddles, and kept me updated on how they were doing. When we arrived home late that evening, it was obvious how happy, relaxed, and well cared for they had been. Knowing they were in such great hands made all the difference and allowed us to enjoy our trip worry free. I will absolutely be booking with Mikaela again!”
“Jen did drop in visits for our cat Oscar and she was so amazing! She was so sweet to our cat and he loved playing with her. She also took some really awesome photos of him and gave us detailed updates while we were gone. Highly recommend Jen to take care of your fur baby when you are gone.”
“This was Jeff’s first time with our cat and he worked with us to get to know our cat and his needs during our time away. He was on time, communicative, and followed the medication and feeding instructions. We will rebook.”
“I have so much anxiety leaving our cats, but Wolf made me feel so at ease! Their pictures and notes each day were wonderful and helped me enjoy my trip. We hope to book them again for our next travels!!!”
“Megan is an amazing sitter who took great care of my special needs dog when I had to leave town for work. She gave him his insulin without any issues and gave me great notes on how the visit went. She went above and beyond in every visit and she is at the top of my list for future needs. She really kept my heart at ease when I couldn’t be home and made me feel good about leaving him in her care.”
“Cecelia watched our dog & cat recently while on vacation. She took great care of them & was also so good with communication. She really cares. I highly recommend her & will hire her again!!”

Maggie is a lovely person! She obviously loves cats and was very sweet to my kitty. She also came over for a meet and greet before I went out of town where we could work through some of the kinks to get into my apartment, send videos when she got there, and let me know everything went okay. I would very much recommend her for any catsitting!
I’m really glad Anissa was available to watch my cats the following week. Doing two back-to-back trips was stressful, but I knew I was in good hands. We were able to work out some minor kinks in their care, and it made for a smoother visiting time! She was so good with Azula, and I got plenty of pictures (pictures of Mitski were occasionally included, as long as she was behind the washing machine). :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Reading on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 1,181 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Reading. 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.

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.
