“Brooke was great! My mother had passed away, on a Tuesday, funeral on Thursday ( was out of town), and Brooke was an angel to check up on the dogs on such short notice. Highly recommend Brooke.”
“Abigail was great with our two cats! She gave us peace of mind while traveling and was even able to give our older cat her subcutaneous fluids while we were gone! She let us know how each visit went and sent pictures.”
“Missy was so wonderful with my puppy Corbin! I had zero concerns leaving him in her hands. She was very communicative, followed directions, was respectful of my home, and was detailed in her updates. The photos she included in her updates were the highlight of my day! I could tell she really enjoyed her time with him and he was having fun and felt safe with her. Thank you so much, Missy!!!”
About: Hi! I’m Wendy. I offer calm, reliable care for dogs and cats, including walks, drop ins, and overnight sitting. I focus on keeping your pet comfortable by sticking closely to their routine and giving them plenty of attention and care. I’m responsive, easy to reach, and happy to send updates while you’re away so you always feel connected. 🐕🦺🐈 I have a flexible schedule and am generally available throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I can adjust based on your pet’s needs and your schedule. ✨ I prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication to ensure pets feel secure and cared for, and I always make sure they get plenty of attention and affection.
“Edith arrived promptly with a warm smile and a gentle voice to greet Louie. She clearly knows how to handle an excitable dog. Her experience and calm manner did the trick so he could enjoy her company on their walk. We are so thankful to have met and hired her!”
“This is the first time I’ve used a pet sitter instead of boarding my cat Cali as I felt she would be more comfortable in her own home. I came across the Rover website and booked a sitter close to my home. My cat has an automatic feeder for dry food as well as a water fountain. So, the only “services” I needed were to feed her wet food in the evening and clean the litter box. I met with my sitter, Amy, and explained how to access my home, where to dispose of litter etc. Amy did an excellent job and even went above and beyond to try and get a photo of Cali, who hides from strangers. Thai has been a great experience and I will definitely use Rover and Amy again.”
“Katherine did a great job taking care of my three cats. She did everything I asked and even sent me pictures of them. Her fee was very reasonable. I will use her to watch my cats again in the future if needed!”
“Thank you for adding rats to your pet sitting repertoire! The boys seemed happy and well-fed while I was away and I’m so grateful for your flexibility and great communication!!”
“Needed a sitter last second and tried Rover for the first time. I’m so glad I picked Mattie! She was super responsive and really was great! And our dog literally loved her during a quick pre-visit and she’s usually wary of new people. I can’t thank Mattie enough!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting professionally on and off for around 5 years now and am very comfortable with most kinds of animals. I have experience in training pups, senior care, and medication administration. Personally, I’ve had a companion with tumor-induced epilepsy and another with Blastomycosis (a respiratory issue). In other words, I am prepared to care for your animal in whatever capacity they require. Until May, I work an 6 hour morning shift T-Th and a night shift on Saturday. Over the summer, it will reduce to Sat. shift only. Other than my job, I am available to be with your companions at all times of the day as per need. I will care for your pet in whatever way they need. If they must be crate trained at night, fed daily medicine, diaper changed, regular training practice in basic skills (sitting, etc.), frequent walks, bathed, trimmed, I'm your girl. I’ll do my best to make them comfortable with me and happy in your home (even if that means love from a distance for some of our timid fellas).
“Payton is wonderful! Our dog can take a bit to warm up to people but he and Payton became fast friends which made the whole experience so easy. She took wonderful care with our boy and she went above and beyond playing with him and sending us updates!”
“Amanda is great! I’m an anxious cat mom when I have to leave them😅, but I love the updates she always sends of them! One of my cats is super skiddish but she’s been slowly coming out to visit her! & The other one loves play time 😂”
About: For years of my life I’ve not only cared for myself but also for my pets. Day to day I make sure that they live the happiest life possible! Every morning I like to greet my fur friends and feed them their breakfast before I leave. Whenever I return I give them all the love they deserve while they accompany me throughout the rest of my day. I also play with them when they feel energetic and then at their dinner time I feed them. Most of the time I let them approach me before interacting and when sleeping or tired I give them the most of their pets. I let them be curious to an extent and I love them every second I can get!
“Alyssa provides the most amazing pet sitting service and has been so flexible in accommodating my schedule!! We will definitely be booking on a weekly basis so Sadie can play with her new friend! 100% confident that my sweet lab is in the best of care!!”
About: I have been a pet owner all my life and always have had a passion for animals growing up. I have been professionally pet sitting for many years now. I have 2 rescue dogs named Gemma and Ollie who I absolutely adore. I enjoy what I do and would be happy to watch your fur babies! I do accounting during the day but work from home so I have plenty of time to care and play with your pups! I have flexible drop off and pick up times too because of working remotely. I have a fenced yard with 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. We also have a camera to keep an eye on your pups if we step out for a bit.
About: I’ve taken care of two dogs for almost a full year by taking them on walks, giving medication, potty break and dog sitting over night with them! I currently do not have a full-time or part-time job but I am looking for one! I do take care of 2 other dogs already, M-TH from 12:45p-1:30p. I can do anytime from 2p-4p or 6:30p-8p! With having my own pups, I try to keep dog care at your own house where they feel the most comfortable and safe at! If any accidents happen, I always make sure to clean it up the second I notice it! With scheduled feedings or medications, I am always on time with them and will always send a text to let you know that they have gone good or not!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Richwood on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 959 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Richwood. 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 Richwood. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
