Karen has been a real lifesaver! She has helped out on several occasions (with very short notice) to check on my two dogs and cat. I really appreciate her and my beasts look forward to seeing her again soon!!

We had a wonderful experience with Kate! She did a fantastic job with our puppy and treated him with so much care and attention. It was obvious right away that she genuinely loves animals, and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her hands. We’ll absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and great with puppies!

About: I have been house and pet sitting since I was in high school. Friends, family, and neighbors are always asking if I can care for their animals and homes! I used to shadow a family friend who had a pet sitting business and I loved tagging along! I work full time as a teacher, but I get off at 2:35 so my weekdays have free afternoons and evenings. Weekends are completely free and I’ll be able to care for your pets any time of day. I can easily commute to your home to care for your pet. I don’t mind transporting your pets if needed. I will take great care and consideration when entering your home and ensure safety, fun and love for your pets!

Mary was beyond phenomenal taking care of my puppers. At no point was I ever worried for them. I always knew Mary was doing the best care. I will be a return customer and again, I can't thank her enough for the care given.

Amanda was prompt and provided photos of my pup. It relieved a lot of anxiety knowing she was there with him to give him a break and cuddles:)

Pam was great. I appreciated the daily text and photo of my pup which eliminated any anxiety I had prior to and during our family vacation. Hope she will sit for us on our next trip away.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and attention. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment that keeps pets comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I’m comfortable with basic puppy training, leash walking, administering medication, and following detailed feeding or care routines. I also have experience caring for senior pets, including providing gentle mobility support, monitoring health changes, and maintaining consistent routines to reduce stress. Above all, I treat every pet like family—making sure they feel secure, cared for, and happy while you’re gone. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I work during the day and am available after 5:00 PM on weekdays, which allows me to provide evening walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I’m also available on weekends with flexible scheduling for longer visits, overnight stays, or extended care when needed. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully so I can give each pet my full attention and maintain consistent, reliable care. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care situation. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I make sure doors and gates are secured, maintain a clean space, and always supervise pets during walks, feeding, and playtime. At my home, I have a Siberian Husky, so I’m very familiar with active, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of structure, exercise, and safe introductions. Above all, I focus on building trust through consistency, clear communication with owners, and treating every pet with patience and respect.

Christin has been great with our new addition Penny. When Penny met Christin, it was an instant connection. You can definitely see her love for animals. She arrives on time and is very reliable. Penny looks forward to her visits twice a week where they go play in the backyard. In addition to Penny, our 4 cats enjoy her stopping by as well, especially Axle.

About: I’ve taken care of my dads friends dogs aswell as my own cat. I’ve fed, walked, etc.. I’d love to work with your pet! I’ve had my cat for 12 years and she’s well taken care of. This is currently my main priority as I’m going to college soon! I can do pretty much any days and any times!! Monday-Friday. 7Am- 9PM (just an example) I currently do not offer this ! But if i ever did I’d make sure your fur baby is as comfortable as my own. Thank you for trusting me!

This is the second time we have had the pleasure of having Lauren sit for our cats, KC and Phoenix. Lauren visited our house once a day while we were on vacation and each time sent us adorable pictures of the kitties. Lauren also took care of the less glamorous part of sitting cats and we (and the cats) greatly appreciate her. Lauren is a joy to work with and I highly recommend her for cat or dog sitting!

About: I'm passionate about providing loving, reliable care for your furry family members. With extensive pet experience, I understand that every animal has unique needs and can accommodate to their nature. I am currently working remotely part time, so my schedule is very open and flexible and I am looking to be more active in pockets of my free time. I look forward to cater to your needs. Personally in my home, my dog has the house to himself. But I value whichever approach you follow for your comfort and pet's safety and will comply with instruction.

Courtney was amazing! This was the first time we have had to leave our dogs with someone other than family, so we were a little nervous since our dogs can be a handful with their anxieties. The first time our dogs met her, they were already comfortable with her. Throughout our vacation she was always in touch with us and sent us pictures. Even though we are back now, the dogs still look excitedly in the morning to see if she is coming, so we will definitely be using Courtney again in the future!

Gabrielle took great care of my two cats while I was away for a week!! She was always on time with her drop in visits, followed all of my instructions closely, sent lots of great pictures, and went above and beyond by spending time playing with them and giving them treats. Even my very shy cat seemed to really love her. Will definitely book her again in the future!!

Ally is great - super communicative and clearly took great care of the pup. She filled up puzzle treats every visit (a must for getting puppy to eat) and was prompt and present for every walk. My old girl has some specific health concerns and Ally was great with medication schedules and sharing out observations. Over and above - we love Ally!

About: I have been house sitting for 25 years along with house cleaning. Since I have retired from cleaning houses I now have more time to house sit. I have always loved animals and they love me dearly. All the dogs and cats are always so loving and I love to spend that with them. I follow the instructions of the owner. I make sure that your fur babies take the medicine required and eat when they are suppose to. I also take the dogs for walk unless you just let them out back in the fenced back yard.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Rectortown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 1,935 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rectortown. 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 Rectortown. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
