“Kari was great to work with and was amazing with our dog, Marty! She did several drop-ins for us while we were away. Marty loved all the love and attention! We would definitely book with her agian.”
“Joanne came in on a last-minute request and did a phenomenal job winning the heart of my beloved cat. She did a fantastic job and put in a lot of effort to make my cat feel comfortable and loved. She was prompt and good with communication throughout the entire time that She watched my cat. Thank you, Joanne!”
“Kate is an outstanding caretaker that we could not recommend highly enough. She is not only knowledgeable but also proactive and really thoughtful. Kate took care of our two cats while we were out of town for several days. Our one cat has diabetes and was not doing very well near the end of our trip. Kate immediately reached out to us and Rover and got our sick cat to our vet promptly. She went out of her way to ensure that he was well taken care of and kept us updated on his condition while we returned home from out of state. Her excellent communication and care gave us comfort that he was in good hands while we returned home. We know that our fur baby was with someone who truly cared for him. We are so so grateful to Kate and highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs. She's awesome!”
About: I love caring for and being around animals. I have more than 5 years of experience caring for pets. They’re precious and deserve tender care. I have cared for dogs and cats through check ins, walks, and house sitting. I have mostly watched dogs or cats 3-4 or older. I have recently watched a kitten who is turning 1 soon and had a lot of fun so I’d be open to doing it again. I am a full time student and have a job outside of this. Pet care would be more during my weekends and free time. Seeing animals when not in class or working is such a reward! My current availability is Friday after 3 PM, anytime Saturday and Sunday, and before 5 PM on Monday. I have pet sit overnight in homes for dogs and cats. I learn quickly and take notes to assure I care for any pet well. I like to ask clients about what they typically do with their pet in a day that their pet will expect outside of feeding and walking time. This might include playing with toys once they come home for 15 minutes or treats after walks. I love doing pet phone calls for clients who want to check in with their pet in real time! A quick FaceTime call can bring such ease to a pet parent and such joy to their pet.
About: I have been taking care of my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs and cats since I was 15. I have been hired to dog and cat sit during the day (for pets of all ages), walking dogs, and drop in visits to feed animals and play with them! I am currently in physical therapy school and have a very flexible schedule. I am available after 4pm Monday through Friday and off on the weekends. Starting May 1st I will be available all day everyday except for days marked off! I have a fence and big backyard. When caring for others pets, I am able to let them outside with a fence or able to take them out on a leash. I also have a car if they enjoy car rides!
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my comprehensive experience in dog care, including specialized skills in puppy training and senior dog care. I can help with basic commands and socialization for puppies, while also providing tailored support for senior dogs, such as administering medication and managing mobility issues. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing environment that offers plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection, ensuring both pets and their owners feel at ease. Additionally, I keep owners updated with photos and messages, providing peace of mind while they’re away. Although I do work, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to collaborate closely with pet parents to meet their needs. This flexibility enables me to provide personalized care, whether it's daily walks, playtime, or special training sessions, ensuring that each pet receives the attention and love they deserve. In my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and secure environment for their pets. I follow their specific guidelines to maintain routines for feeding, exercise, and bathroom breaks, ensuring pets feel at ease in familiar surroundings. I provide companionship, engage in activities they enjoy, and offer plenty of love and attention. My goal is to deliver personalized care that meets each pet's unique needs while keeping their home environment consistent and stress-free.
“I’m so glad that I found Morgan! She is wonderful with my dogs, they just love her, she is on time, reliable, and her communication is perfect. Definitely rebooking!”
“Britney checked in on our dog, who gets a little too excited when people visit, and she did great! She let her outside and then did whatever our dog wanted to do (even if it was to just get pets and plug tug of war). She updated us about the visit promptly. Will ask Britney to help us again in the future!”
“Jess was amazing with our big puppy! 🐶 She took the time to do a meet and greet the week before, which made us feel really comfortable. Communication was great from start to finish, and she was so sweet and patient with our puppy. We loved getting the picture updates during the walk — you can tell she really cares about the dogs she walks. We’ll definitely be booking with Jess again!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone unknown. I was totally against putting her in a kennel as she has never been in that type of environment ….(she’s 11 years old). I couldn’t have picked a better person to watch my baby. Deanna is absolutely fantastic! Not only is she reliable and trustworthy, but she always made herself available in case my scheduled changed. Rylee became quick friends with Deanna and adores her! Deanna consistently sent pictures and updates of their walks and Rylees general well being. This provided such comfort and peace of mind. Deanna went above and beyond. She watered my plants and swept up after coming in and out from walks. She even stayed later than she was supposed to in order to make Rylee feel comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend Deanna. I WILL DEFINITELY hire Deanna again. Jeanne, Mark, and Rylee 🩷”
About: I have always had a soft spot for puppies to seniors, all breeds of pooches. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, car rides to drive around, a special treat for a pup cup and playing fetch in the yard. I am comfortable with medications, baths/grooming, accidents and the endless dog kisses. I have 2 dogs myself (Rottweiler, and a King Charles Cavalier) who are very rambunctious and always keep me on my toes. I am currently available during the week, weekends and holidays. I am home and available for drop ins, long visits, dog-walks, boarding/overnight visits at your home. I do have a very large fenced in yard for dogs to play in. Multiple crate sizes for dogs and cats along with carriers. For cats- I have multiple cat trees in my home. I do have areas to seperate pets if needed in my 4 story home. Multiple food bowls, blankets and beds to keep everyone happy.
About: I have watched dogs from when they were puppies to seniors! What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my genuine passion for all dogs and personalized care tailored to their needs. I focus on creating a nurturing environment, I guarantee your dog will feel safe, happy, and engaged. I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them! I am the dog and cat sitter for all of my family, friends, and their friends. I absolutely love spending time getting to know them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to take care of them! I would love to take your dog on walking trails or dog park if they are able to! I also take care of 3 dogs of my own, 2 golden retrievers and a pit bull/bull dog mix! While watching a dog I go based oon your schedule as well as my own, and work with them on how you would like their pet to be taken care of!
“Alyssa was phenomenal! She communicated throughout all of her visits and took photos of our pets to keep us at ease while we were away. I really appreciate her attention to details and her willingness to go above and beyond. We will 100% book her again.”

Britney did a last-minute drop in visit for me when I had to do an emergency overnight stay out-of-state; I'm super grateful that she felt comfortable enough to drop-in on an animal she hadn't yet met! She communicated with me about everything, and sent super cute pics of my cat. This is my first time using Rover (and my first time leaving my cat alone overnight) and I'm so pleased, especially with the service Britney provided! I was so relieved knowing that Valkyrie would be taken care of while I was away. Thank you!
Katie gave my one cat a pill every day and scooped the litter box while we were away. She came over before we left to go over instructions and said she would message us if there were any issues. We came back to nice clean litter boxes, and we did not get any messages so I’m assuming she was good giving the medication! Thanks Katie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 114 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
