“Victoria was amazing with our cat! She was prompt and came at the same time everyday to feed and play with our girl. I got tons of videos/photos, along with very detailed notes about how she was and how the visits went. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and encourage you to reach out to her for your fur babies! Thank you so so much again for everything!”
“I don’t know why Kathy doesn’t have any reviews because she’s the best! This is saying a lot for someone who doesn’t usually leave reviews. I booked her for a week while my family and I went on a vacation out of state. She is very honest, transparent, communicative, attentive, patient, and thorough with her care of our 3 cats. Not only did she make sure my cats are well-nourished and attended for, she also respected my house rules (for our privacy) which I greatly appreciate. Will definitely book her again. Thank you very much, Kathy!”
“Mariela has been watching our pets when we take trips for over a year now and has done a fantastic job every time! We always feel at ease knowing our animals are in such great care!”
About: Hello! I’m a sitter in Lakeside offering loving, attentive care! I’ve been a cat and dog mom my entire life and a foster parent for dogs of all ages and sizes for over 5 years—from gentle giants to tiny pups. I’m passionate about daily walks, potty breaks, and providing love and care. If your dog needs medications, I’m experienced and comfortable administering them safely! Happy to do a meet & greet to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone! Best, Angelina Darling I’m a student learning from home so I have an extremely flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets consistent care, walks, and attention throughout the day! Whether I’m caring for pets at my home or yours, I will always provide walks, playtime, meals (and medication as needed) making sure your furry friends feel safe and loved!
“This is the first time I used Rover. We were very last moment and Sabrina was awesome. I have 3 cats with one needing insulin twice daily. Everything went perfectly. She worked with us to time the medication and feeding schedule. She was able to get my 2 skittish kitties to play with her and not run and hide as they usually do. I would definitely recommend her and will try to rebook her in the future.”
“Andrea is my go to sitter when I need help with my 2 pups when I'm not around. It's hard to find people you can trust so it's puts my mind at ease knowing Andrea will show up and love on them.”
“Trinity took in our request for drop in visits for our 2 dogs while we were away for the Memorial weekend. She did exceptionally well and did things the same way we do with our dogs with their daily routine. Trinity gave us the peace of mind while we were on our trip and kept us updated on how our dogs were doing. She even went the extra step to grab something for us at the store to treat our dog. Highly Recommend using her services and would definitely be using Trinity’s services again. Thank You Trinity.”
“Maureen is amazing, so communicative, and she really cares about your pets! She’s so nice and friendly- all the animals love her! Highly recommend, will definitely book again!”

“We recently moved to the area and needed to find someone new on rover. Alexis was amazing! Super professional, had great communication, went above and beyond, and so sweet with our furbabies! She was so caring with our a old blind dog and patient with our a very energetic pup. It was so reassuring to have her come check in on our fur-babies. Highly recommend! Super thankful for Alexis!”
“Amber was absolutely awesome. My 2 Dobermans felt so comfortable with her, she gave me updates every time she was there feeding/walking them, also sent updated pictures of them. We are so grateful and happy to finally found someone to care for our pups while we are away. 10 ⭐️”
About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young! I grew up fostering animals and taking care of our own. I am great with dogs of all sizes and breeds, but have a special love for big breeds as ive had akitas most of my life! I worked at petsmart for 2 years, so I got to work with dogs, cats, and exotics nearly every day! I also have a variety of animals of my own, including a rabbit, a gecko, and some tree frogs! I have a very fun home🏡☺️ I also have some light experience with grooming and lots of bathing experience! I currently work as a respite care worker for individuals with disabilities, so my schedule is very variable!😊 I schedule week by week so please feel free to send me a request! Best days to reach out ahead of time for me are Sundays and Mondays as I usually don’t have my week fully scheduled out yet by then. 😊 I will always aim to provide a fun, safe, and enriching environment for your pet whether it’s a pop in visit, a walk or whatever your personal pet needs are!

Rubie did a wonderful job taking care of my boys while I was away. She made sure they were fed every day, kept the litter box clean, and spent time playing with them so they stayed happy. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. I will absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.
Victoria was amazing with our cat! She was prompt and came at the same time everyday to feed and play with our girl. I got tons of videos/photos, along with very detailed notes about how she was and how the visits went. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and encourage you to reach out to her for your fur babies! Thank you so so much again for everything!
Shelby and Dalton were amazing! They did an initial meet and great with our cat prior to the scheduled drop in visits. They were thorough during the visits and were very good sports when our cat was being feisty. They even brought out/in our trash bins when asked. Would definitely recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riverview on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
