“Denise was so easy to work with and fit me in last minute. My dog really took to her and she doesn’t usually warm up very quickly. I would definitely recommend and use her again in the future”
About: Hello! I appreciate your checking out my profile and considering me to care for your pets. I know how important it is to find a great sittet, and I am available to give them all of my attention, and lots of love, while I take care of them in your absence. I am retired from a long career as a registered nurse and the compassion and care I have for humans, and the care I gave them, I will be glad to offer your fur babies. I have a life long passion for all animals, as a child I worked on a local farm and have taken care of neighbors and friends pets. I also am proficient in horses as I've been involved in grooming, riding them for the past 25 years. After losing Violet, my beautiful husky, and then my precious kitty Tessa, I am grateful for the opportunity to extend my loving care to your pets. I am retired and my schedule is almost always open. I will be respectful of your space and make sure that all your pets needs are met and your house is kept excatly as you left it. I have no problem picking up after dogs nor cleaning up litter. I am a caretaker by nature. I have a perfect house for boarding; it is spacious and I have a big yard with a sizeable fenced in dog area. I also can crate your dog if needed.
“Amanda made sure our cat Archie was well taken care of while away and even watered our outside flowers. We appreciate you and will definitely reach out to you on our next getaway!!”
“David did wonderful, even with my older cat with her meds. He made sure Scooter took her meds. Communication was great. Pictures every day. The cats ate all their food for David, even better than for me. Thanks David.”

I have a spacious house and a pretty big back yard to walk the dog around for bathroom time as well as a nice walking areas around my neighborhood and we also have trails in the back of my house with a park that could be used for daily exercise if your animal needs to get their energy out!
“Hayley was amazing. She took good care of my cat Poly while we were on vacation, sent me pictures everyday and I came home and found a happy cat. ? She even took a package inside that was left outside in the rain by the freight company. Reliable person. I recommend her.”
“Thank you Christine for sitting my kitties and all the pictures you sent with your updates. Christine was quick to respond back when I sent the request. She came over for a meet and greet before I left. Christine was very welcoming very friendly.”
“Eren and Luca are great ! Felt so reassured that our cats were getting great care , the senior boys need some extra attention and they were great . Communication was spot on and pictures were wonderful. Will definitely use them again”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life! I have several years shelter experience, and during that time I worked hand-in-hand with veterinarians and dog trainers. I’ve always had a passion for dogs, and have two wonderful fur-babies at home. I’m currently available on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday most of the day, and also on Friday after 4pm. Some Saturday and Sundays can be accommodated upon request but may require additional fees. I love to care for pets, and am flexible to meet each one’s needs! Walks, play-time, enrichment, and lots of attention! I will make sure to adhere to whatever schedule your pup (or kitty) needs!
“Yet again, Marisa has continued to exceed all expectations in carrying for our kitties and our home. Not only does she regularly collect the mail and packages for us, but when a bear got into our trash and spread it all over the driveway, Marisa spent time cleaning it all up before we returned home. I can’t express a higher recommendation for Marisa, we’d give her 6 stars if we could!”
About: HI! I'm a young retired pet lover who is looking to help out fur babies families! I am available for house sitting and pet hosting at my home. Being retired, I am not on a regular schedule so I am home most often, but just like everyone, I do have appointments, shopping etc outside the home. I try to not be gone more than 5 hours at a time. I have had many dogs and cats in my life but none right now. I have been helping family and friends my whole life with pet sitting. I have helped with Chihuahua’s to PitBulls! I try to keep your fur babies on the same routine they have with you. Since I'm retired, I can take them on several walks a day. I am patient and enjoy large dogs as well as small. I am the perfect choice if your fur baby does better without other pets or children around. Or may be shy or skittish. Bring a couple favorite toys! I am retired but do help with caregiving of two family members so I am gone up to 5 hours at a time a couple times a week. Your fur baby is allowed on my couch and bed. I have a great fenced yard for throwing balls! I have a covered back porch so most fur babies love to lay outside but are under cover
“Alec is easily one of the best sitters on this app. He is caring, considerate and timely at all times. Very responsive and trustworthy. I will continue to go to him knowing my dog will be in good hands.”
About: I have cared for pets of all ages and breeds. I am comfortable handling and walking energetic youngsters and senior dogs that require a little more patience I have a full time job that has flexible hours. Some days I am available all day and other days I have to leave for a few hours but I’m always back home for dinner time or walks around the neighborhood I care for all pets as if they were my own. I appreciate their personalities and quirks. I am excited to add more animals to my pet sitting fam!
“Michael came over to our house 2 times a day to feed our 2 Rottie shepherd mixes and let them out to use the bathroom. Him and his family were so great with the dogs! Our dogs are incredibly happy and looked like they had the best time ever in every pic! Michael came over in advance to meet the puppies and get an idea of what we needed, which I really appreciated! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our babies. If you are on the fence about who to select and reading everyone’s reviews like I did, I can say Michael was great and we will be recurrent customers for sure and plan on rebooking him for future travels we have coming up! Thank you so much again Michael and family! Our puppies are so happy!”
“Absolutely AMAZING! Most of the time she stayed with our dogs longer than the designated time frame and took extremely good care of them. She left detailed notes and pictures EACH and every visit!!!! It was so nice to know my dogs were in great care while we were away on vacation.”
“Jessica is a very thorough, thoughtful, reliable cat sitter! She consistently went above and beyond with cat care and communication with us while we were away for a week. Our shy cat warmed up to her, and she kept us updated every day. I recommend Jessica to all cat owners! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
About: I have many years of experience caring for my own pets, including dogs, cats and fish. I have also been walking, feeding and house sitting dogs since I was in high school. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and comfort level, so I can assure you I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and cared for. Whether your pet needs a walk, a check-in, playtime, feeding, or just some extra attention while you’re away, I will treat them with the same patience and care I give my own pets. I am currently a teacher on summer vacation with lots of free time to care for your fur babies. When the school year starts back up I am still available from 3pm until 7:30 am for walks, check-ins, and house sitting! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I will follow their usual routine as closely as possible, keeps doors and gates secure and ensure they have fresh water, food and exercise based on your instruction. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your animals and entering your home, so I will be respectful, dependable and provide updates to help you feel comfortable while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rising Sun
10/10! I would reccomend Christine to anyone! She was so super communicative, personable and reassuring. She took care of my 3 fur kids exactly like I would. My youngest hides and doesn't come around new people for awhile but in one weekend he made friends with Christine, even letting her pet him! (Which is a big deal for him) My oldest is the reason why we needed Chrstine's care to begin with. She's 16 and has diabetes, kidney disease, glaucoma, arthritis and most recently diagnosed with congested heart failure. The CHF happened via emergency like 2 weeks prior so it was very fresh still and meant new meds (a lot, 3 for the CHF and 2 anti nauseas) and supplements (2) she has to take. I was SO anxious to leave her for the weekend in fear of another episode or worse, but Christine was able to get her oral pills & liquid oral meds in her every time. And she able to give her insulin too. Christine made sure I was very informed, sending pics of everyone and a thorough write up of how everyone is, who got what and how meds and eating went which reassured me tremendously. I was able to enjoy a weekend away that I didn't think I would be able to!!! Will definitely be booking Christine for future sittings! ❤️✨️👏😬

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 781 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rising Sun. 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 Rising Sun. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
