“Kelly was so great with our puppy! She was super quick with communication and sent pictures at the end of her visit. We will definitely be booking her in the future!”
“Emily was absolutely amazing and took such great care of my furry friend! I was pretty nervous because it was my first time using Rover and also my first time leaving my cat for such a long period, but Emily made the entire experience so smooth and stress-free. She was incredibly responsive, sent so many adorable pictures and updates, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about my cat and his well-being. Knowing he was in such caring hands gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Emily again in the future!”
“Michelle is the BEST. I feel so comfortable leaving our Flower in her hands while we’re away. Our dog is very reactive and sometimes difficult to walk… Michelle is like the dog whisperer with her. She’s amazing, I almost don’t want to recommend her because then she’ll be too busy with other customers! 💗”
“Allison can be depended on for timely communication, attention to instructions and providing loving care to you dogs. She is an excellent choice as a dog sitter and dog walker.”
About: Life-long dog and cat owner who makes sure your best friend gets what they need while you're away. In addition to my own dogs and cats, I've cared for many pets in the community while mom and/or dad are on the road. Available almost every day for dog walks and drop-ins. I set my own schedule so your pet always gets the care, when and where, we decide. Currently not offering pet-sitting in my home except by prior approval. Please inquire so we can review and provide rates and get more info . If sitting in your home, I will leave it as I found it or better, and always secure.
About: I am a college sophomore on the pre-veterinary track. I have extensive animal experience, including, but not limited to, giving medications to special needs and elderly dogs. I have worked with animals with all different temperaments and am able to work with each one at the level that they are comfortable with. I won't just watch your pup. I will make sure that they are happy and exercised! I will maintain communication and provide regular updates to assure you and your family that your pets are doing great! I'm currently working full time, but I will still have lots of time around my work schedule to make sure that your pet is getting all the love and attention it deserves! When I care for pets in their own home, I keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible. This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure. I always: - Follow your instructions carefully (feeding, walks, meds, etc.) - Keep your home tidy and clean up after pets - Provide companionship, cuddles, and playtime - Maintain their usual sleep, potty, and exercise habits - Bring in mail or water plants if needed - Send photos and updates so you know they’re doing great My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away.
“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”
“Alie is GREAT! From the initial booking to the meet and greet to the days she cared for my cat, Cricket, she was responsive, friendly, caring, and thorough. Very happy with the care she gave my “baby” and loved the detailed notes and pics she sent. Highly recommend and will definitely contact her again when needed in the future. Thanks Alie!!”
About: Hello! I'm Selena, a student at Skidmore college, doing research over the summer. Back home, I'm the owner of one dog as well as two cats, and I regularly dog sit for my friends and family members. My love of animals is well known and I'm always their go-to for pet sitting, as they know I'm always happy to do it. My current Bernedoodle has been with me since she was just a puppy, so I'm very aware of how much care and attention puppies need. I've also cared for dogs on the older side, and I'm open to dogs of all ages and sizes! Caring for pets is very important to me, so much so that when I do not have an animal to care for (i.e. when I'm alone at school), I become very sad. Growing up, taking care of animals every day was very important to me. I am unfortunately a college student living in on-campus housing, so I am unable to care for pets in my own space. However, I make sure pets are happy in my client's home and makes sure to keep the space maintained well!
About: I am someone who has truly connected with animals of all breeds and sizes since a young age. I work at a pet boarding resort caring for dogs, cats etc. I love my job and I look forward to continuing in pet care!🐾🩷 My work schedule varies week to week. I am always available early morning, early afternoon, and in the evening. I am always open to discussion! 🐾☀️ Our pets are family in our house. Keeping your pet safe, comfortable and happy is my number one goal. I am here to accommodate you and your fur baby! 🐾🩷
“I booked Elaina to do a drop In visit for my 10 week old puppy and my 8 month old puppy. She cleaned up the pee on the floor, let out my two older dogs and stayed over a half an hour to get my stubborn 8 months old puppy back in her kennel. I will definitely be booking again, if she is still willing to accept us after today’s events.”
“I cannot say enough about how great Sam was with our fur-babies. She really took the time with them and made our going away super stress free for us and them. We don’t go away often but will definitely look to use Sam again and will recommend and sing her praises to whoever will listen. Thank you so much Sam!!! I cannot say enough how much we appreciate you!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 5 years old, when I got my very first dachshunds—Peanut and Sweetie. By the time I was 9, I had adopted a shelter dachshund and raised two more dachshund puppies, bringing my total to five dogs at once. I personally trained all of them, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding dog behavior, especially with independent or energetic breeds like dachshunds. Throughout middle school and my teen years, I helped neighbors by dog sitting, walking, and doing drop-in visits, often just for playtime and companionship. One of the dogs I cared for regularly was a sweet senior named Duke, who I’d take outside and spend time with while his owner was away. These experiences taught me how to adapt my care for both high-energy pups and older dogs who need a gentler, more patient approach. In addition to my pet care experience, I am also a dancer, choreographer, and educator. Through years of teaching and working with students of all ages, I’ve developed strong skills in patience, attentiveness, and understanding individual needs—qualities that naturally carry over into the way I care for animals. I also have years of experience caring for cats—both my family’s and now my own sweet cat, Tom. I understand feline behavior, how to earn their trust, and how to create a calm, safe environment where they feel comfortable while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom to my 2-month-old baby, I’m home often and have a flexible, attentive schedule. I truly value creating a calm, safe, and loving environment—for both pets and people. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, small breeds, or shy kitties, I bring patience, love, and reliable care to every visit. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I build my schedule to be available when pets need me most—whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to accommodate different routines, including weekend or last-minute needs. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like a chore to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort above all else. In your home, I follow your routines closely to ensure your pet feels secure and stress-free. I always keep a close eye on surroundings during walks, avoiding unsafe areas or triggers. I’m familiar with handling pets with anxiety, special diets, or medication needs, and I treat every space with respect—leaving it clean and exactly how I found it. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet during a walk, you can count on me to show up with calm energy, attentiveness, and love.

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!
Michelle took great care of my 2 cats! Everyday, sending a few pictures and writing what they were up to. Was so nice to know that my cats were well taken care of! Definitely will use your pet care again! Thank you! Koa and Thor thank you for visiting as well!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riley Cove on Rover is $13.91 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 573 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:

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.
