“Emily was the best sitter I have had look after my fur babies. She communicated with me and was able to accommodate a last minute change in time. She sent some great photos that showed just how comfortable my dog and cat felt with her. She also gave me specific updates and made me feel at ease while I was away. Will definitely book again!”
“Rachel and Wesley did an amazing job taking care of my cat while I was out of town for the weekend. I would highly recommend, they did a great job making sure she was safe and got enough play in while I was gone. I would definitely book again.”
“Meghana is a wonderful and attentive cat sitter for my boy Nori. She is quick and responsive! Her notes and pictures from each visit were detailed and I loved seeing the progress of my cat warming up to her. She has an expert understanding of cat body language and was careful not to push boundaries and overstimulate Nori as they learned each other. I am glad they have become friends during my time away. I highly recommend hiring Meghana for your pet sitting needs!”
“Haleigh did such a great job with our energetic dog! She was prompt, thorough with her Rover card responses, and went above and beyond in caring for Turner! Would absolutely book again!”
“Mariya was fantastic caring for my elderly dog! She was able to take my request on very short notice and took great care of him while I was away! Thank you!”
“Ryan was thorough, capable of following my directions, and did the job with pride-- I felt incredibly safe with him working with my cats and their needs! He was able to work with changes in directions, had experience giving liquid medications by mouth, and was punctual and timely in his visits. My cats felt calm when he was around, and he had no problem playing with them with extra time he had. I would definitely recommend Ryan and hope he gets plenty of opportunities to continue petsitting in the future, thank you again!”
“Sidlali was great at our first meeting, and very patient with the possibly-overly-detailed introduction I gave her to our cats and their litter situation. I look forward to her taking care of our cats next month!”
“Emily was amazing as a sitting for our two cats. One cat in particular can be a challenge with food guarding but Emily handled her with such professionalism and won her over. She was detailed with her messages and sent lots of photos. I highly recommend using Emily as a pet sitter!”
“We are so happy to have met Abby! We can see how comfortable Addie is with her and enjoys her visits. Abby loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them happy. It’s great to have that peace of mind! Thank you!”
“Thanks so much Carina! You were sweet to my Lovey and great about keeping me updated. I very much appreciate how responsible you were about keeping to her scheduled feedings. I will definitely use your help again.”
“Quinn is the best! She’s always quick to respond and communicates clearly throughout the care term. She’s also attentive to all the details for both our cat and dog, which makes it easy to trust that they will be well loved while we are away.”
“Alexis was great taking care of our kitty! She did the basic care tasks very well but also spent quality time playing and keeping our cat company while we were gone. We loved her photos and notes!”

“Jennie goes above and beyond to give our pets love and attention!! She is super reliable and a great communicator, very easy to work with. She makes the whole process so easy, highly recommend!”
“Marie did a fantastic job with Snippet and Milky Way. She played with them both every day when visiting, and she was very communicative both before and during her stay.”
“Kim did an amazing job with our dogs! One of our dogs is usually very scared of new people but warmed up to Kim very quickly and felt safe with her (she has a very kind and calming presence). I felt very at ease knowing Kim was taking such good care of them. I will definitely be using Kim again for any dog sitting in the future!”
About: I have taken care of my dog since she was 8 weeks old. I have trained her as well as other dogs I've cared for to sit, lay down, roll over, heal, jump fences and much more. I have a lot of experience working with horses, and bunnies as well as dogs. My dog has faced medical issues like skin rashes due to allergies, and I am comfortable caring for animals that need additional support. I currently have one dog that lives with me. I care for her daily. I also take horse lessons 2-3 times a week and am responsible for the horses care as well. I am currently a college student so I plan on caring for your animals with short breaks when I have classes. I will spend free time outside of classes playing/walking and taking care of your animals.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Riverlea is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Riverlea
Kati was great to work with! She was able to watch my cats on a pretty late-notice request, and she was responsive, caring with the kitties, and thoughtful and thorough. Also her Rover updates were hilarious! I could tell the cats were in good hands and I would absolutely have her watch them again.
Birdie was amazing. Needed her for a last-minute booking for our 2 cats. Both of them warmed up to her immediately (which is RARE) and she made us feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. Communication and pictures were great the whole time. 10/10 will book again!
Khalia was an amazing cat sitter for our two kitties. She followed all instructions, fed them treats, gave them lots of snuggles, responded to messages promptly, and went above and beyond in many different ways. We would absolutely book her again and recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.
Ryan was thorough, capable of following my directions, and did the job with pride-- I felt incredibly safe with him working with my cats and their needs! He was able to work with changes in directions, had experience giving liquid medications by mouth, and was punctual and timely in his visits. My cats felt calm when he was around, and he had no problem playing with them with extra time he had. I would definitely recommend Ryan and hope he gets plenty of opportunities to continue petsitting in the future, thank you again!
Amy was the best! I was looking for an experienced cat person to take care of our crew as two of four have health issues, and I’m so glad I found Amy. She reported on all the intricacies of each of their personalities, sent photos/videos, brought a laser pointer along to give them some entertainment and even tracked down our scaredy cat just to make sure he was okay. I’d definitely use Amy anytime I go out of town!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riverlea on Rover is $22.2 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 1,290 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Riverlea. 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 Riverlea. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
