“I can’t believe Amy has been our sitter for three years now! I was going through the booklet that we leave for her with care instructions, and it still mentioned our hens being too young to lay eggs. It’s been such an awesome thing to have Amy as our sitter, we don’t even have a second thought when it comes to who we’ll have sit our house when we’re vacationing! You da 💣 Amy! Thanks for becoming our go-to zookeeper 😂”
“Sarah helped me with a last minute request and took amazing care of my boys!! I was away for a fishing tournament and it was amazing to not have to worry at all. She was very great at updating me on everything and sending pictures. I recommend her to anyone and will use her again!!”
“Hands down amazing with my dog she was patient and understanding of what needed to be done to help tend to my child’s needs and cleaned up after her and I know that never easy I would definitely rebook her”
“I cannot say enough good things about Sandy. She took excellent care of my two cats while I was away. She took meticulous notes about my cats and their habits during the initial meet and greet and while I was away she provided updates and photos. I HIGHLY recommend Sandy!”
“Chelci was absolutely wonderful! I cannot recommend her enough. She dropped in twice a day during my 3 day trip, and she was incredibly reliable and responsible. Her communication was excellent, and she sent wonderful photo updates that kept my mind completely at ease. Even my cats picked up on her great vibes right away! Everything was purrfect when I got home. I will definitely be contacting her next time I am out of town!”
About: I've taken care of animals for the past 12 years for clients and friends of mine. Their animals always took to me really well with me being around them so often and showing them love, so they began asking me if I could pet sit for them. I also have a 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits and chickens. I am a stay at home mom that homeschools so my schedule is very flexible. Let me know your preferences and we can work something out. I can administer medication if needed also. I have experience giving insulin shots. I show them love and affection, let them out to go potty and play with them before I put them back up. I follow detailed instructions
About: I come from a mother who absolutely loves dogs and a father who has been forced to deal with that 😂. I've been around dogs and cats my entire life and helped my mom with fostering pets of all ages, sizes and physical conditions, from a Great Pyrenees to a small pack of Chihuahas. Though I only started sitting locally just over a year ago, I'm very familiar with meeting new dogs and caring for their individual needs. I'm out of school right now so I will have plenty time to come check on and stay with your pets. After I'm done caring for my own, of course. I am available to do a meet & greet to learn just how to take care of your pets, and I can also send a daily update picture just so you know that your animal companion is getting they care they deserve.
“This is my second time using Jayleene and she was absolutely phenomenal. My pup had a medical scare and she was on top of it and keeping me well updated until I could get back. She was super flexible as well. I can’t say enough good things and would highly recommend her. She will be my go-to sitter in the future.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for 6 years. I have experience mainly in a veterinary setting as a technician and an animal caretaker! I am experienced with giving medications, cleaning, walking, and bathing your pets. I currently work part time at a veterinary clinic . On the days that I work I will be available from 4am to 7am and anytime after 6pm Drop ins- first I will let your pets out/take them on a walk before coming back inside for a break before eating a meal. Lastly I will take them back out before I leave!
“Breana took great care of our two cats while we were gone. She knew how to work with the cats, giving them attention, and attending to their needs. We really appreciate all her help as we hate to leave our sweet boys, and felt comforted to have her care for them!”
“Nikki was amazing! Our cats are pretty low maintenence normally; but when Hurricane Nicholas decided to make our area a target while we were gone on vacation, Nikki stepped up! She secured our items on the decks that were loose and moved plants for me.She sent us video afterwards of the trees and yard so we could continue to enjoy our time away with no worry! The cats were fine and seemed completely happy! Thanks so much Nikki! Will book again soon!”
“SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! My dogs loved her and good sense she was a good person and I love that she constantly played with them. This was the first time I have ever used someone to help me with my babies and I 10000% will do it again. They don’t even listen to me as much as they listened to her, I feel so much better knowing that they were in good hands while I’m away.”
About: I've cared for animals, small and large for almost 20 years! If you need someone you can trust, I'm right around the corner! Give me a chance to earn your trust with your furbabies! I am a stay at home mom of 3! Whatever schedule I do have, we can work around! I love animals! Give me a call! I am willing to watch your pets in your home or mine! I live in a house with a large yard so they would have plenty of room to run around and play! Let me know if you would like me to keep your pet while you go out of town!
About: I've grown up around pets my whole life and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I've done pet sitting alongside my partner for a while now helping with feeding, walks, playtime and keeping routines consistent while owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment and I try to make that as stress-free as possible. I'm new to having my own profile, but not new to caring for animals. Give me a chance, your pets will have a wonderful time with me! As a shift supervisor, my schedule is consistent and allows me to plan ahead, which means I can dedicate time each week to caring for pets. I make pet sitting and walks a priority around my work hours, and I’m reliable about showing up when I commit. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or days off, I have the flexibility to make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and love they need! When I care for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow any instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or playtime so that pets feel safe and cared for in their own space. I treat each home with respect, keep things tidy, and make sure you can come back to both a happy pet and a comfortable home.
“Kenna is awesome! We have used several sitters/walkers booked through Rover and Kenna is by far one of the best. She's great with my dog, and my dog loves her. She followed all my instructions, shows up when scheduled, and always checks in with an update. I know my pup loves seeing her when she comes by. Will be using Kenna whenever we need someone!”
About: Howdy! I am Bri and I absolutely adore fur babies; they are the best companions! I have cared for animals for many years and currently work in veterinary medicine! This experience has provided me with a deep understanding of pet health, behavior, and caregiving needs. Though I have this experience, I believe there is always something new to learn! While in my care, I will be committed to ensuring they have an enjoyable, comfortable, and happy experience. I cannot wait to meet your fur baby and have an amazing visit! I work part time at an animal hospital and go to school during normal semesters, but have a decent amount of free time. This extra time allows me to keep fur babies company when then need it most while you’re away! I treat all fur babies as my own, not only because I am an animal lover, but because it is how I would want my pet treated when I am away. If I am taking a pet out for a walk, I would make sure to keep them safe while also getting a good bit of exercise. If a pet is considered a senior or has a disability, I would take extra care to assist and provide special care.
“I had the pleasure of entrusting Valerie with my 8-month-old puppy for the first time, and it was an absolute delight. From the start, her commitment to ensuring a smooth transition was evident. She even visited us the day before our appointment to meet my furry friend. Valerie's instant connection with my puppy was reassuring to witness. Leaving my puppy in Valerie's care was a breeze. I knew she was in capable and caring hands. When I returned, my pup was happy and content, which is a testament to the quality of care provided by Valerie. Thank you so much, Valerie. Your professionalism, warmth, and love for animals make you an exceptional dog sitter.”
About: I’ve had family dogs since I was 10, including a golden retriever, labs, a shihtzu and a cattle dog. I also dogsit consistently for family friends and take care of their German shepherd, golden retriever and toy poodle. I’m a college student who has evening classes starting at 4:45. Everything before that time is clear for me and I don’t mind early mornings! I live in an apartment complex but there’s plenty of grass and an enclosed play area. Across the road there is a small park with lots of open space and geese I can take your pup to.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Richwood on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
