About: I am a previous dog owner and current cat mom. I grew up watching dog and cat training shows on TV and going to in person purebred dog and cat show events. I enjoy spending my time with furry friends. I'm a in-home caregiver to my mom so I have lots of time to take care of your pet. I have weekly events on Sundays and Wednesdays, but can easily work around those times. I have a long line for when your pet is outside and lots of patio seating to supervise and play with your pet the whole time. I also have a crate for indoor use.
“Austin is a dream walker! I got about 20 adorable pictures a day, all wallpaper and insta worthy ? He looked after my boisterous boy with enthusiasm, care and diligence. I cannot wait to plan my next vacation only so that newton and Austin can have more time together! ❤️ thank you so much, Austin!”
“Krista did a great job taking care of our kitty, Claude! Claude doesn’t let just anyone pet him and play with him right away but apparently he thinks Krista is his new bestie because he walked right up to the door to greet her and demand pets every night! Our cat was very well cared for while we were away. 😊”
“Natalie took great care of our cats, kept us updated, and was just overall wonderful to work with. We would definitely ask her to watch them again in the future.”
“Ann was attentive, conscientious, and responsive. She always leaves a detailed report and respond to my feedback right away. She learned the personalities of our 4 cats and was observant of their behaviors. Highly recommended!”
“Emily is awesome. She took care of my Curry Boi and Chickpea. She fed them and took pictures for peace of mind . You can tell she really cares about them . Thanks Emily for all you do !!”
“Pamela was very responsive and friendly! She came over beforehand for a meet and greet. She also sent a nice summary and pictures each day. I would highly recommend her!”
“Janay was great with my two cats! They both warmed up to her very quickly and she sent me a ton of pictures each day. She did everything asked and even managed to make sure my cat with asthma got his inhaler everyday without issue. I came home to two happy and well cared for kitties”
“Iva and Eduardo watched my two kitties over the holidays and they went above and beyond with their care! They were able to pill my (occasionally naughty) kitty twice daily, kept me informed, gave them tons of love / play and sent me lots of pictures! Would highly recommend for an above spectacular job!”
“I've had Mandi do drop in visits with my dog three times now. She's always on-time and sends me photos of my Rosie having a great time with her. She's also thorough and responsive with communication. Worth every penny.”
“Cilyr is one of a kind. Best pet sitter we have ever had and feel so lucky to have found them! One review is not enough to describe how much care and thought was put into all of our animals. It was truly remarkable and I am beyond grateful.”
About: I have experience caring for both cats and dogs! I've grown up with and cared for dogs my entire life. Additionally, I have over a year of experience working as a canine coach at a doggy daycare. Here, I cared for dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels! Through this job I learned training techniques, how to read a dog’s body language, and how to respond to it accordingly. I have also been cat sitting for my neighbors for over 5 years, which encompasses feeding, cleaning eating areas and litter boxes, and entertaining the cats, making sure they are happy and healthy while their owners are away. I am a responsible and caring person and would love to get the chance to care for your pets! I am a college student currently on summer break with plenty of time to care for your pets! I am available for drop-ins and walks any day of the week! I have lots of experience and am very comfortable around cats and dogs of all kinds and will make sure they feel happy and safe whether out on a walk or spending time in your home. I am a very active person who is eager to spend fun and active time playing with or walking your pet!
“Isabel is extremely reliable and patient with our new puppy. She comes over when she says she’ll come, and she takes lots of pictures and notes during her visit, which we really appreciate. She plays with our dog inside and outside and makes sure he gets some good attention while we’re away at work. Would highly recommend her!”
“I had the best vacation knowing my fur babies were in great hands . Jess was amazing with them . I couldn’t ask for a better sitter . She’s great ! I will hire her again and again !!”
About: We will welcome your dog into our family while you are away. My husband and I both work from home, and one of us is here at most times on weekdays. . Our beagle/ heeler mix (Obi) loves to play in our fenced yard, and then settle in for a long nap on one of the big dog beds in my office. Obi was born Jan of 2018. We also have 2 cats, Milo and Potato awho re used to being around dogs, and love to play chase all around our house. Your dog will be treated like a part of our family while in our home, or if we are walking / checking in at your house. We accept puppies who may need more frequent potty breaks, as well as older pets who may need medications, or special feeding. Since I work from home full-time, hanging out with pets is a huge perk of my day! I'm easily able to step away between calls and meetings for potty breaks and playtime. Plus, my husband works hybrid, so one of us is almost always home to keep your pet company. I have a fenced yard, one dog and 2 cats. So, your pet will have plenty of buddies to hang out with and tons of safe, supervised space to relax.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 734 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Riley. 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 Riley. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
