About: I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I communicate clearly with owners so they always feel connected and reassured. My goal is to make pets feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Senior pups feel right at home with multiple beds and cozy spots to nap :) My husband and I both work from home we are present throughout the day so your pups have access to affection, potty breaks and a fully fenced yard to explore. We have a fully fenced large yard and covered patio with two of our own dogs are home. One senior Beagle and Three year old Aussie Healer that is always up to play.
“Sydney is great. Our cat Elsa is 19 and very shy. Sydney has made a great effort to get to know here and make her comfortable during their visits. No other sitter has gone as far. Sydney is very much appreciated here.”
“We have had Lindsey come watch our pets multiple times. She always communicates with me and has always had really great availability. As long as we live in Lake O, Lindsey will always be my first choice to watch our fur kiddos.”
“Alyssa is so kind and thoughtful. We can tell that Tommy loves her in the videos and he doesn’t take to everyone! This is our second time using Alyssa and we will certainly use her again!”
“J Does a great job with my pup and yesterday was super helpful because she drilled him on his commands and helped get some kongs prepped. J is reliable and communicates well.”
“Melissa cared for our three boy kitties while we were out of town recently. She was very reliable and timely in providing updates on her visits, but most importantly, I could tell she truly enjoys cats - even our shy boy came out and was seeking attention! Would absolutely recommend Melissa and will hire her again in the event we need a cat sitter.”
“Amy is the absolute BEST! As soon as I met her I knew my puppy was in the best hands possible. Her communication skills are top notch and I look forward to her updates which include the best pictures or my little guy! Couldn’t recommend her enough.”
“This was my first booking with Michelle, and our senior cat immediately decided she was a new friend. It was very reassuring to see how relaxed and comfortable he was while we were away. Michelle was prompt, communicative, and sent thorough updates after each visit. We came home to a calm, content cat and would happily book with her again.”
“Whitney is incredible! She dropped in to walk our two dogs twice a day while we were out of town. She was very thorough with her check ins and I felt great leaving them in her hands. Would highly recommend Whitney!”
“Honestly the best experience I could have asked for and more! Heather did drop ins for my two doodles, and we already have another scheduled with her. She is so incredibly thorough, very responsive, sent lots of pictures and videos and I know Oliver and Bailey loved her! My husband and I have found it hard to trust someone with our dogs, but Heather made it so easy to. Can’t recommend her enough and will continue trusting her. 😊”
“Danielle took great care of Eva and Johnny while I was out of town. She was communicative and showed that my cats were in great hands. She was also great at giving action shots during check-ins. I would highly recommend booking her as a sitter if you get the chance!”
About: I’ve had fosters alongside my own pets my entire life, and couldn’t be more of an animal lover! I have an extra soft spot for seniors. I’m pet CPR & first aid certified, and have extensive experience with special needs pets. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I’d love to do a meet and greet with your babies! I promise I will treat them as if they were my own. I make my own hours and am happy to be flexible when needed! Caring for animals is second nature to me, whether simple or complex. I have dependable transportation and don’t mind driving to you. I’m home full time so can also come for multiple walks in a day, or overnights.
“Rylie was amazing. Took great care of our cats and went above and beyond multiple times. Even got our super shy car to come out and hang. Which has never happened before with a rover . Can tell she really cares about the animals she works with and will 100% book again if they’re available for our next trip.”
“Reliable and great to work with. As a one time sit for us on vacation, she quickly at ease and the pups were happy as could be. I would happily ask her to sit again.”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for my own pets, as well as dogs and cats for friends and family. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, drop-in visit, fresh food and water, litter box cleaning, playtime, or overnight care while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care that gives you peace of mind while you’re away and keeps your pet happy in their familiar environment. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and pride myself on being responsible, communicative, and respectful of your home. I’ll treat your pets with the same kindness, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As a Senior IT Manager that works remotely Monday-Friday, I have incredible flexibility. I simply need reliable internet to work anywhere in the United States. I have experience caring for dogs that have full free range of the house and all furniture to those who have specific boundaries that need to be followed. I’m very comfortable abiding by all house rules within any setting. This loosely applies to cats who often only abide by their own rules! Haha

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rivergrove
Brittaney is such a kind, attentive, and caring pet sitter. She handled my fur babies with distinctly different needs and play styles and made sure they both felt loved and cared for in the way that they prefer and sent pictures and videos of their adventures. I would recommend Brittaney for anyone looking for a true animal lover to watch over their fur babies.
Shelby was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our dog and cat while we were away, and we came home to two very happy pets. Not only did she handle all of their care exactly as we asked, but she truly went above and beyond. She took our dog on walks to the dog park so he could get extra exercise and have some fun, and she made sure our cat got plenty of playtime and activity too. It was clear she really cared about making sure they were happy, not just checking off a list of tasks. Shelby was reliable, thoughtful, and communicated well throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’d happily book with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like they’re her own.
Annalei did a wonderful job taking care of our cat and home as always. She is so sweet to our little guy. This visit she went above and beyond when we had a tech issue and our cat’s auto feeder got disconnected. We had to ask her to restart the system, download an app, and get everything re-connected to our accounts but she did it all happily for us within minutes! She saved the day!
Absolutely AMAZING. Thank you so much for taking care of my girls. The fact you know how to give insulin is awesome! Also thank you for bringing in my package that was so sweet of you. I loved all the photos and how you wrote the notes every time you came by. I don’t go on vacation often but when I do I will hit you up and hopefully the girls will remember you and be nicer lol. Thank you again truly. My last experience (outside of rover) was horrible and I’m so grateful for you. <3 1000/10 stars.
Roger and his family took wonderful care of our cat while we were gone. They are trustworthy, reliable, friendly and a very caring family. They took daily pictures and videos and they were very observant as to describing our kitty's behavior and idiosyncrasies. We are so happy to have found them. I would highly recommend them.
We are very pleased with Aleen's care of our cat Tulip. While Tulip was pretty timid, Aileen was making progress with her by the time we returned. I found Aileen to perfectly follow the feeding and litterbox instructions I left her (believe me, I've had some epic fails in the past with other services). A huge thank you to Aileen from me and Tulip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rivergrove on Rover is $24.61 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,526 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rivergrove. 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 Rivergrove. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
