“Ashley was great with my pet, met all the feeding times, took super pictures, and kept my plants alive too! I'm very pleased and will recommend her, and Rover.com, to my friends.”
“Zoe took great care of our dog! She really spent time with her and made sure she was not only fed and given potty breaks but also cuddled and cared for! She even brought in our packages and pulled up our trash can while we were gone.”
“Ellie was amazing with our two boys! I had booked it for doing a couple drop ins on New Year’s Eve and she ended up just coming by and staying with them for several hours which was greatly appreciated. Rory and Remy gave her two non-opposable thumbs up and we’d definitely use Ellie going forward.”
“Katie you were so amazing with my sweet Maisie!! It gave me so much relief to know she was well cared for before she had to be alone for the rest of the night while I was at work. Thank you for being so caring and loving on my girl!!”
“Mia was an excellent pet sitter for our dog. She was always on time and gave us updates/pictures of him. If we ever need a sitter in the future she is the one I would go back to!”
“Justine was great with our dogs, visited them 3 times a day at varying hours. Flexible and we didn't have to worry about them when we were out of town for a weekend. Pups were happy and well taken care, Justine was very prompt with the check in times and ensured the went out, ate and were left happy until the next visit. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for drop in visits!”
“Katlin was wonderful this Summer with our boxer puppy Leia! She dropped by and played with Leia, took Leia to play with her pups, and kept Leia overnight! Highly recommend Katlin.”
“Samantha was great without pups, even our Dane who likes to bark loudly and constantly when new sitters come through the door. She was timely, provided great pics, and paid great attention to our instructions.”
“Ashley has watched our cats several times now and does a phenomenal job! She is attentive, communicative with us, and we can tell our cats love her and are well cared for when we return.”
“Brooke has always been dependable and has communicated well since she started taking Nala out at 9 months old! I always have peace of mind during my long shifts knowing she will be coming while I am out.”
“Rebekah did a great job of communicating with us and taking care of not only our elderly kitty but also our small tortoise. Our cat has medications and multiple needs so we appreciated her willingness to care for her.”
“Alyssa is absolutely AMAZING!! She took my booking at the very last minute. She’s a God send!! Isla was clearly happy to make a new friend. I appreciate Alyssa’s prompt availability and excellent friendly service. She was thorough and informative just all around awesome!! So grateful for her service!”
“Sarah was fantastic with my cat, Henry. This was a last-minute request when my usual sitter wasn’t available, and she stepped in seamlessly. She sent thoughtful updates and photos, took care of my mail, and made sure everything at home was in order. I felt completely at ease knowing Henry was in her care. I’d happily welcome her back anytime and highly recommend her to others looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Niki took great care of our two cats and sent me cute descriptions of what they got up to during her visits. The cats took to her fairly quickly, even the shy one. Highly recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Roanoke
Keely was amazing! She took such great care of our 14 year diabetic cat, checking glucose levels and giving insulin. She also fed our two outdoor kitties. She sent daily photos and updates multiple times per day and followed all directions. She went well beyond what a typical pet sitter would do. We were able to enjoy our trip and relax knowing our pets were in great hands! She truly gave us a sense of security. I hope to use Keely again in the near future and highly recommend her if you need care for your furry family members!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Roanoke on Rover is $21.09 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 .

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.
