“I couldn’t be happier with Alana! She was punctual, reliable, and took such great care of him. She made sure he was fed, stayed with him for a full hour, and spent time playing with him and giving him attention. It was so reassuring knowing he was happy, cared for, and in such good hands while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog walker. Five stars without hesitation! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: Hey there! I’m Victoria, a Miami-based house sitter and animal lover. Most of my pet care experience comes from helping clients care for up to seven dogs at once - as you can imagine, I’m not a stranger to organized chaos. From walks and potty breaks to feeding and playtime, I’ve learned that every pet has their own personality and routine. Whether your pet's a couch potato or super active, I’m happy to spend time with them individually or in groups. Cats, dogs, and bunnies are all welcome! I’m big on integrity and communication - just let me know what your communication preferences are. I'm happy to give daily updates or weekly check-ins. I'm available Monday-Sunday for short or extended visits, morning or evening. Outside of work you’ll usually find me writing poetry, hunting down the best mangoes, and spending an evening at the ballet. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your home and pets with respect, I’d love to chat. Looking forward to meeting you! I'm currently working from home part-time so I'd be able to snuggle your cats regularly, walk your dogs a few times a day, and complete overnight visits. I closely follow a pet owner's instructions on how to prepare food and care for their furry friend. Whether your pet needs a special mix of wet and dry food, a certain number of walks a day, regular brushing, or anything else, I'll be sure to follow your pet's needs closely.
“Carolina is wonderful. She did 2 drop in visits. She walked my dog. Fed him and spent time with him. She was receptive and easy to communicate with. Will definitely use her again to take care of our pup.”
“Melida is a thoughtful, caring, and responsible cat sitter. She was always on time and followed all my instructions very well. She took great care of my two cats and she was always very quick to respond to my messages. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Absolutely fantastic- cannot rave about her enough. Completely trustworthy and went the extra mile to take care of our fur babies and also give us peace of mind! Best experience we have had with Rover and a sitter. Highly recommend!!!”
“Marcela is the best. She came to my rescue when I was really in a pickle for two days worth of drop in visits. It was the first time I used her services and she accepted the job on short notice which was a life saver for me. She was very communicative off the bat and was able to work with me as far as the schedule. She sent updates and pics and I came home to calm and happy fur babies! I was very pleased, I will definitely use her services again.”
“Nina was awesome! This was my first time leaving my pets with anyone while my family and I were away on vacation, and she made the entire experience stress-free. My dogs don’t get along with just anyone, they’re very high-energy, but from the moment they met Nina, they instantly connected with her. That gave me a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Nina was extremely attentive and detail-oriented. She sent photos during every check-in, kept us updated throughout the whole process, and even provided photo proof that the house was secure. She also cleaned up any messes, brought in packages that were left outside, and truly went above and beyond what was asked of her. I will definitely book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! too!”
About: We have 5 animals in the house, we’ve had them since they were puppies and all get along and friendly towards other people and animals. I work from home and take the pups out 5 times a day. Can take them out more if a pup has a weaker bladder. I usually take mine out at the same time but have enough time in the day to take your pup out individually. Everyone really lounges at home while I work or go out but my boy loves to play so we have best of both worlds and doggie beds all over the house if they’re tired or can play in the back yard.
“Nos gustó mucho el servicio , la comunicación y la disponibilidad en una época tan complicada , Laura siempre súper dispuesta y muy linda Seguro la volveremos a contactar para futuras ocasiones”
“Kathryn is a very reliable sitter who I can count on! My cat loves seeing her and was very well cared for during my time away. She and I hope to have Kathryn as a sitter again soon!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly love spending time with them. I currently have a playful 1-year-old Schnauzer at home. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I have experience with special diets and can follow basic medical instructions with care. I always take the time to connect with each dog based on their unique personality. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I’m currently not working a traditional job, so I have all the time in the world to care for and play with your pet! I’m available 7 days a week and would love to spend quality time with your furry friend. I also have a fenced yard and my sweet Schnauzer can keep your pup company—if you’re comfortable with that. Your pet’s safety is my top priority
About: What sets me apart is my patience, especially with shy or nervous pets. I take things slow and let them come to me so they always feel safe and comfortable. I’ve been pet sitting for friends for the past 7 years, caring for both cats and dogs with all different personalities. I’ve loved animals since I was a kid and even went/took horseback riding lessons once a week. Since my mom was scared of dogs, I wasn’t able to have one as a child, so I poured all my love into caring for my friends pets whenever I could - playing with them, cuddling them, and giving them the attention they needed. Now I have a dog and I used to have a cat of my own, and both require daily medication, so I’m experienced with giving pets medicine safely and gently. I genuinely love creating a calm, loving environment where every pet feels understood and cared for. I work from home two days a week. My office hours are 8am-5pm. My partner also works a lot from home so your pet won’t be home alone very often. I’m available for boarding during the week (as long as your pet is used to a similar schedule) and weekends. I care for pets by creating a calm, safe, and cozy space. I have a fenced yard and a nice neighborhood for walks. My friendly dog will keep your pup company. Your fur baby is welcome on all our furniture, just like my dog. If needed, I can easily crate your pet or let them stay loose. Whatever makes them and/or you feel most comfortable.
“Cameron did an amazing job taking care of our dog and new puppy while we were gone for a long weekend! She did drop-in visits and provided walks for our older dog, as well as spending quality time playing with our puppy. She was very gracious and professional in dealing with accidents and followed all of our instructions perfectly. The pups seemed well taken care of. She provided lots of cute photos each visit and was very responsive. Would definitely recommend Cameron and would love to book again next time!”
About: Hi! My name is Laritza and caring for animals has always been my passion. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and I truly treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I currently spend most of my time at home with my baby, which allows me to provide a calm and loving environment where pets receive lots of attention, supervision, and affection throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and can feel comfortable and safe. I live in a safe condominium with nice areas for walking dogs and I also have a small fenced patio where pets can safely enjoy fresh air. I always make sure every pet follows their usual routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of love. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel relaxed knowing your furry friend is in good hands. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved while you are away. I currently spend most of my time at home, which allows me to provide constant attention and care for the pets I look after. I also have a baby, which means I naturally maintain a calm and home-centered routine. This is actually a positive environment for pets because they receive plenty of company and supervision throughout the day. I always make sure pets get their walks, playtime, and the attention they need. If needed, I also have family support to help with childcare so I can fully focus on walks or specific pet needs. My schedule is flexible, and I always adapt to each pet’s routine to make them feel comfortable and safe. I live in a safe and peaceful condominium with several areas perfect for walking dogs. I also have a small fenced patio where pets can safely enjoy fresh air. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. Because I spend most of my time at home caring for my baby, pets are rarely left alone and receive lots of supervision, love, and attention. I always prioritize safety, following each owner’s instructions carefully and making sure every pet feels relaxed and cared for as if they were at home.

Christine is such a great help. Genuine, reliable, and a person of her word whom always goes the extra mile. Very professional but also like a great friend that you know is doing what they love and her attention to detail is 100% for the true love of her furry clients. I can't say enough great things about Christine. ❤️
My cats feel very safe and comfortable around Carolina. They are usually frightened of other people, but they get along with Carolina very well. Carolina is a good communicator and updated us about the cats daily. She has watched my cats multiple times and I have never had any issues.

As of September 2026, there are 1,804 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Richmond West. 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.
