About: While newer to professional pet care, I have been around animals my entire life. I am comfortable around dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m a responsible, patient person who understands that every dog is different. I’ll take the time to get to know your dog, follow their usual routine, and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-in visits, or keeping your dog company while you’re out of town. I’m looking forward to meeting new dogs, getting some fresh air, and helping make your life a little easier! I work from 7:30-4pm Monday-Friday so my main availability is weeknights and weekends. I have some flexibility for lunch time drop ins depending on location and my schedule. Let me know what you are looking for and we can hopefully make it work! When caring for your pet in your home, you can trust that I’ll be respectful of both your pet and your space. I’ll follow their normal routine and any instructions you leave for me, and I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’ll also send you a detailed update and a few photos so you know how things are going!

“Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter! She sent us pictures every day, gave our cats so much love and attention, and made sure they had plenty of fun and playtime. She even bought them a new toy, which was such a thoughtful surprise! Her communication was excellent, and she always responded promptly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were happy, loved, and well cared for while we were away. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life as my family have always owned dogs along with the occasional neighbor going on vacation. I love to go on good long walks with my dogs and I would love to do the same with other pets! My schedule is different from day to day depending on my classes. I have more free time on the weekends but also have several hour break between classes during the week. My house has a big backyard along with walking trails in forested area near by that is great on hot days. I don’t normally like walking next to roads so my favorite is to find secluded trails.

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Angela to take care of my beloved pets, and I couldn't be more impressed with her services. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she was not only professional but also incredibly caring and considerate. Angela followed every instruction I provided to the letter, ensuring that my pets' routines were maintained perfectly. Her attention to detail was remarkable, and she went above and beyond to make sure that my pets were comfortable and happy. Whether it was feeding them, taking the time to groom them daily, or simply spending quality time with them, she handled everything with the utmost care and patience. What truly sets Angela apart is her genuine love for animals and her compassionate nature. She treated my pets as if they were her own, and it was evident in the way they responded to her. Her calm and patient demeanor made my pets feel at ease, and I could see how much they enjoyed her company. Beyond her exceptional pet-sitting skills, Angela is a wonderful human being. She is kind, reliable, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure the well-being of the pets in her care. Her positive attitude and warm personality made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend Angela to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. She truly is a gem, and I am grateful for the outstanding care she provided to my pets. I would absolutely, without a doubt book with her again in a heartbeat. Angela, we wish you the absolute best in life. - The Andrews family”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a young girl. As a child we had cats. As a young adult I worked for a grooming, daycare, and boarding facility for 16 years. The only reason I stopped working was because of the birth of might twins.I also volunteered for a pet rescue, a pet shelter, and of course owned my own dogs, cats, and hamster. I’m a mom of 7! Some grown , some in college, and my youngest 2 are 9 year old twins. I have plenty of time during the days to walk, spend time, cuddle, and love on your furry family members. My specialty is mid day breaks/walks or check ins while you’re away or have a long day at work. I am aware of the tremendous responsibility it is caring for your pet. I have my own pups and kitties and will give the same love, care, and respect my babies receive.

About: Hi! I’m Sarah! I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, cows, and other animals. I have two dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m reliable, responsible, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just hanging out with them while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m always happy to meet beforehand so you and your pets can get comfortable with me! I usually work Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but my schedule can switch around sometimes. I’m mostly available Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, depending on my work schedule that week. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits in the client’s home. I’ll make sure your dog gets the exercise, attention, food, and care they need while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and will follow any instructions you leave for your pet

“We had a great experience with John. Not only was he able to help us out in a pinch, (just before a holiday weekend with meet and greet promptly scheduled) our dog loved him and he executed care instructions as planned. He exceeded our expectations of a drop-in sitter. John was a great communicator, giving us daily updates about our dog, sending pictures, and reaching out with major things of notice (nothing bad, but our cat was up to no good). We plan to book John again the next time we need some help with our dog!”

About: I truly love being around furry friends! I grew up with both a dog and a cat, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. Now, I have a 2.5 year old Labradoodle of my own, so I understand firsthand the energy, excitement, and occasional chaos that can come with younger dogs. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to older companions, and I’m happy to help with everything from basic training to administering medication when needed. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’ll treat your furry friend like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of care, attention, and affection! I currently work full-time during the week, so my availability is mainly on weekends. That said, I’m very flexible with timing and happy to work around your schedule as best I can! I always try to stick as closely as possible to their normal routine that way they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles, along with feeding, walks, and any other care instructions you provide.

Jillian was a true wonder!! I felt completely at ease with her care for my two cats. She showered a ton caring and affection on them, and really seemed to get their complicated feline dynamics! My kitty Jojo needs asthma treatment and Jill was at ease with administering (: She navigated his moods - and dealt with catio stressors - like a pro, and with good humor, and kept in close communication with me through it all! Highly recommend- if you want someone who both enjoys and "gets" your pets!

Lauren did a great job on a short notice with my 2 cats! They seemed very comfortable with her and when I got home they were happy and healthy! She even vacuumed their litter room without being prompted which I thought was a nice touch. She was also great with communication and photos. I would definitely book her again.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Riley Cove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riley Cove on Rover is $13.91 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 564 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Riley Cove. 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 Cove. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
