“Always such a pleasure to leave our boys in the hands of Katherine. We know that she will do such a great job watching them while we are gone. I will always recommend her!”
“Nicole did such a wonderful job with my big boy! She handled his energy levels perfectly and followed all care instructions to a T. It’s such a relief knowing I have someone I can trust: I’d highly recommend to my closest friends and family!”
“Trevor did an excellent job of caring for my two shy 11 year old cats. The daily photos and comments were very reassuring. Trevor's demeanor and experience were evident at our meet and greet prior to the drop in visits. Much nicer for the cats than a boarding kennel. I was quite pleased with Trevor and Rover. I recommend both and will use them again.”
“This is the 2nd time Monika has taken care of Belle of Jasmine. She’s super reliable, communicative, and has even helped me with my last minute travel. I will be using her from now on to help with my fur babies!”
“Whitney was awesome with our Maya dog!! I was nervous on how Maya would be but Whitney was so good with her that it reassured any of my anxieties. She was on time to visit our pupper and gave us consistent communication. I will definitely rebook Whitney’s services again :)”
“Nakisha was fantastic with our cat, super attentive. She not only fed her, but played with her every day and sent us lovely photos and videos to ease our minds. Highly recommended her services!”
“This was our first experience with Rover and Kali made it just perfect! She was extremely responsive and communicative upon first contact, for meet and greet, and during each visit. She is a lovely young lady and you could tell she is very caring and great with animals...our two warmed up to her immediately. We loved getting the photos and updates at every visit. Her service made our trip away from the fur babies so much more relaxing. Thank you for everything Kali!!”
“Leroy was a big help, when we brought our puppy home. Skye really enjoyed seeing him for her potty break every day, while I was at work. I would highly recommend him to anyone! And if I need a pet sitter again, he would be my first choice.”
About: I’ve been taking care of all sorts of different pets ever since I was 5 years old from chickens to fish, cats, dogs, you name it! I used to cat sit and dog walk at my last home base in Hanscom AFB, MA. I am comfortable boarding up to 3 pets at a time whenever for however long considering they all get along! Ideally, I can do day care at my house or drop-ins (walks!) at yours between 8am-12pm M-F. I live in a one-floor ADA house so it is both special-needs and senior-friendly with an enclosed deck + pool that connects to a securely fenced backyard and plenty of space with real grass for your companion to roam free in! I am more than happy to offer supervised pool time; it’s such a great exercise for both myself and pets! I usually try to get the majority of pets outside in a day I love taking walks and I am happy to take them out as any times needed so please bring them with a collar & a leash, if possible!
“Amanda is great! So kind and thoughtful, even asked if I wanted my plants watered while I was gone 😂. She was great with my cat Juju ❤️. Even washed the dishes after feeding her.”
“Emma came to take our dogs out while we were away for the day. She sent pics both times, one of which is my new favorite picture of Ollie. We will not hesitate to book Emma again.”
“Gosh I missed my puppies; even though I watched them on the camera almost every night while we were gone. Yvonne did an awesome job taking care of them. She doesn't overexcite them on her first visit, she lets them get to know her. She wears like-minded clothing each visit so that they recognize her and that keeps them from being stressed. She sits on the floor with them, she talks to them, she takes them on walks (if you've included this) she plays outside with them. She seen that I had packages at the door and brought them in. How awesome is that? She has watched bleu and si twice now and they just love her! We owe her a load of thanks!!”
“We CANNOT say enough good things about Maya!! Maya took great care of our pups + did me a huge favor and took out dinner from our freezer when I had forgot! 😂 We absolutely LOVE how many extra pictures she sends, and how she plays fetch with both our pups every time she comes over!! We will be recommending Maya to our friends & will be/already have booked her again!”

Sherri has been absolutely amazing with my kitties! I asked her to see them last second and she quickly responded. She sends great pictures and plays with my kitties with the toys she brings, and they love it! I always feel at ease when she visits my kitties while I'm out of town. I highly recommend Sherri!!!
Nakisha was so nice and easy to work with! I reached out to her last minute on a holiday weekend and she was able to take the booking and schedule a meet-and-greet all within a short time frame. While we were gone, she updated us every day with pictures and description of our cat’s attitude/well being. I felt completely at ease with her handling the care of our cat and will definitely be using her from here on out!! Hiring Nakisha is a blessing for your pet care
Katherine was excellent! She was able to work us in at the last minute when our previous cat sitter fell through shortly before a trip. She was extremely communicative, accommodating of specific requests, stayed the full 30 minutes, engaged with our cat the whole time, and gave very detailed reports. She also went above and beyond by bringing in several packages that arrived while we were gone. We will absolutely be using Katherine again in the future!
We couldn’t be happier with our pet sitter! They were reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring with our pet. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pet was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
Cinnamon was well cared for by Georgi. She came by and gave him plenty of love, treats, his insulin, fresh food, and water, cleaned out his litter box with pee pads and even had his outside time which he loves. I appreciate she communicated with me before, during, and after her visit which made me feel more comfortable with it being our first time using Rover for cat sitting. I highly recommend Georgi for pet sitting and will use her services again. Cinnamon approves this message.
Jackie is amazing - we have trusted her in the past and we will continue to trust her with our animals in the future! She was able to come care for my babies on very short notice with such a quick turnaround, thank you so much for helping us again Jackie! 🩷

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riverview on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,409 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Riverview. 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.

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.
