“Amanda was very pleasant to work with. She was very personable with my 2 cats, especially with my younger male adopted as a stray. He is very timid and runs from strangers, but he let her pet as shown by the many pictures she posted. I will definitely book her again.”

“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her! He got along so well with her male cat and even had fun with her two kids. Olivia was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our kitten was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

About: I have had animals of all sizes and different personalities and energy levels. I have crate trained and fostered animals to find the right families. I always keep to a routine work then outside time and then chill at home time. I always find something productive to do throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard and a back door that leads straight to the back. Where your dog can run around as much as they would like.

About: I'm a vet assistant that's worked in a clinical setting for 5 years. I've handled all types and sizes of dogs and cats. I also know how to care for small animals and horses. I'm a pet owner of 7 critters-3 dogs and 4 cats-and will take care of your pets as if they were my own. I take care of animals at work and at home. I work in a vet clinic and take care of animals daily, manage care plans and make sure animals are handled properly in a work environment. I follow pet parents' care plans that are left with me. Outside of that, I usually follow their pets lead and take them out or interact with them as they request.

About: I have been around all types of animals my whole life, especially dogs. I have house sitting experience and I have taken care of other people's animals previously just to help out. I’ve owned rats, and I’m no stranger to scaly friends if you have those as well. I have my own dog who is my best friend! My schedule is completely open right now because I do side gigs as needed. I’m hoping to eventually make this a long term full time gig! I love all animals and pet care is one of my passions. Any animal of yours I will treat like my own! I do not want you to have worry when you are away.

We last minute booked with Dakota before the holidays due to our good friends (who have pet sit for us before) needing to cancel on us. This of course was very stressful at the time, it was last minute during the holidays, we had to travel, and we knew we would not be leaving our babies until we found a solution. A coworker of mine had mentioned Rover to me, and I just happened to find Dakota. His rates were very affordable, especially in comparison to the other pricier pet sitters on this site. Understandably, people are pricing themselves and accounting for the cut that Rover takes, but with that in mind Dakota is asking for nothing all while being just as qualified as many other accounts I could see. He would message me and wave hello to my ring camera as he came and went and he would always send more than one photo a day. One of my cats is very social and one is a little shy but oddly enough I can tell through the photos shared that my shy one warmed up to him very quickly and my social one was skeptical haha. By the end of our trips we would have the happiest pictures of our kitties with Dakota. Both my pets had some separation anxiety while I was gone which included accidents or vomiting and he kindly informed me on what happened and he cleaned it up. I really appreciate Dakotas care over our holiday period and I will be booking with him again privately due to Rover taking a large cut. I am very grateful for this app for connecting me to a forever pet sitter, I highly recommend Dakota.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - River Bend

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
