About: Moved from California to Illinois recently! I have 3 dogs back home (my parent’s dogs technically but still my babies 🤣). And with me right now I have 6 cats! (2 are mine, 3 are my boyfriends’, & new kitten addition we rescued!) Back in California, I had one person give me a chance on Rover before I moved & that was so much fun! He was a hyperactive and reactive dog, but was able to take him on a beach trip and go out to lunch in public with zero problem behaviors occurring! Besides Rover, I had many experiences caring for my dogs & cats, my family’s pets, and friends furrbabies! I use to take dogs out to beaches, hikes, and on chill days, just walks around the neighborhoods. I have experience with fear based dogs, hyperactive dogs, puppies, & elders! Currently, I’ve been going to shelters every weekend, spoiling the animals there and learning more about caring for disabled pets! Looking forward to care for lots of furrbabies! *Bonus* I have some experience in farm animal care! I’ve cared for horses, goats, ducks, chickens, and geese. I’m very flexible and open to different needs. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Weekdays I’m unavailable 8:30am to 1:30pm due to work. I’m very flexible on weekdays, as long as it doesn’t interfere with my work schedule. Weekends I’m free all day long! I share the care of my cats at home with my partner, which allows me to be more flexible with caregiving other pets. I like to either have a fun outing or a chill day at home. I love to go on long walks and trials with dogs! For animals that need to be let out for potty, I will take them out as many times requested by parents. I very much love to spoil pets with play, affection, treats, & toys. Any accommodations please reach out (allergies, diet restrictions, behavioral issues, etc.) I’m very flexible & can adjust to any physical and behavioral needs.

About: I have had pets my whole life! I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, fish, frogs, turtles, and small furry critters such as hamsters and rabbits. I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away. I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.

About: 🐾Free Fair Parking!🐾 If you’re coming from out of town to visit the Illinois State Fair, we’d love to host your pup for the day! We’re also offering FREE PARKING in our driveway for two guests who would rather uber over instead of navigating the fairgrounds traffic! We’ve been hugging dogs since we were kids, and we’d love to hug yours! Penny, Ciel, and our family enjoy hosting furry friends - we take care of them and our pups play hard with them! Please note: *We cannot currently accept bookings for unneutered/intact male pups *We host a large, rambunctious group of pups throughout the week - pups who prefer quiet, calm environments may not have an enjoyable experience here, and we will happily recommend sitters who may be a better fit for your family Hosting pups is our full-time job - your pups become part of our family while they’re here! We spend our days with our guests, playing and chatting with them, and can attend to everyone’s needs regularly throughout the day. Our 24/7 dedication to giving your pups the best experience while away from your home makes us a great choice for day care and socialization opportunities! We accept bookings between 7am and 7pm; we will consider bookings outside these hours on a case by case basis, potentially for an additional cost. Our availability for picking up and dropping off is limited but we aim to be as flexible as possible. Reach out with your needs and we’ll work out an arrangement that works best for all of us! Our entire yard is fenced in - there’s room to run full speed! We can adjust feeding schedules as needed to accommodate your dog’s diet. In good weather, pups are free to go inside and outside at their leisure. We don’t require pups to use crates while we’re gone or overnight, but if you prefer your pup be crated at any time, we’re happy to do that and have multiple available. Male pups will wear a belly band for the first 24 hours of their stay, at minimum - this soft, absorbent band fits around their belly and attaches with Velcro on their back. Belly bands reduce marking behavior, especially in unneutered males. You may bring your own, but we can supply them, free of charge. Using belly bands keeps our home calmer, cleaner, and fresher by eliminating marking behavior and reduces anxiety for future pups by giving them less reason to want to mark over the scent of previous pups. We have indoor and outdoor security cameras in many locations that can be helpful to review if any safety situations arise. The safety of all of our pups is very important to us! (They’re also great for catching fun footage!)

Shadia maintained timely communication with us which took away a lot of the anxiety of leaving our pets for a week. He took our dog out for a walk twice a day even though that was not a part of our request and provided additional help when we needed it. He also offered to help with other tasks even though we did not ask for it. I am happy we got we got the opportunity to work together and I would gladly work with him again.

Jade has been our pet sitter several times and we have another service booked with her in the future. She is a credit to Rover.com service. Jade offers great care, affection and administers insulin injections to one of our two cats. When we came home our cats were happy and had good care. The best service is peace of mind when we are gone knowing Jade has our home and beloved cats in her care. Thanks Jade for your love, care and responsible service.

About: I am a dog and cat lover and always happy to take the best care of your beloved family member. I originally came from Wag! a different dog walking/sitting app with over 800 completed services with a 5 star rating. I trained puppies, taken care of senior dogs, administered insulin, and love caring for dogs of all sizes. I have done dog walking/ pet sitting full time for a few years and currently looking for new clients as I moved to this area from Nashville TN. I prefer sitting in my clients home, it makes me comfortable knowing the pet is in their space and have their familiar surroundings. And following the routine the owners have given me to ensure their pets are happy, healthy, and safe while they are away!

Laura took such good care of our 3 kitties while we were gone on vacation and sent us pictures of them every time she visited them. I would definitely recommend booking with her and I would trust her to watch our kitties again any time. :D

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young, family and friends have allowed me to take care of them. I enjoy taking them on walks, petting them and giving the attention they deserve, and taking care of them. I will treat them just as you would and offer extended stays. For stays longer than 5 days, most I have done is a month and a half as of present, you will return to a clean home 😊 I am strong and able to keep my stability while walking dogs, am able to let them out, feed them, give baths, and offer other services for the home like my interior design skills which is another side business, that can be spoken about, if interested.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riverton on Rover is $15.54 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 88 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Riverton. 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 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 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.
