“Wendy was easy to deal with, took great care of my dogs, and even went the extra mile by taking them for a walk. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to all of our friends!”
“Paige did a great job taking care of our two cats. They have completely different personalities and eating styles. Getting one of them, Charlie, to eat is a challenge. Paige was persistent, kept us updated, and was successful. We appreciate Paige's fine care of them and will use her in the future.”
“This was my first time using Rover. When I met Shelly, I knew she was the perfect fit. Our cat Wally is not always welcoming to new people, especially when we are not around. Shelly took time to interact with Wally. Her updates after each visit were appreciated and helped me feel comfortable knowing that Wally was doing great while on vacation. Shelly even brought fresh catnip, which Wally loved. I would recommend Shelly. She has a warm and friendly presence.”
About: I've taken care of our family dogs, cats, pets, and farm animals since the age of 7. We're an animal lovers household here at Walk and Sit with Maggie. We specialize in small to medium dogs for drop-ins, walks, daycare, boarding, and sitting needs. When Maggie is not napping we walk in the morning between 6am and 9am. Lunch walks are from 11am to 2pm with evening adventures at 6pm to 11pm. At Maggie's home we are fully secure with video monitoring, garage play area, and fenced back yard. For additional exercise we leash walk at the park and visit off-leash areas. Customer approved adventures prior to travel.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 6 or 7. I have fed bottle-baby kittens and helped to raise some well-behaved pups. I have had experience with my families own senior dogs, as well as having experience pet sitting for senior dogs and senior cats. I also have spent time working at a vet clinic, have 6 months professional experience leading positive reinforcement dog training classes and have worked as an animal care technician at a shelter. Along with these experiences I have also cared for plants, fish, small mammals, and reptiles if that is needed. I can pet sit, dog walk, or play with your animals on weekdays and most weekends. My schedule is pretty flexible and my calendar is updated often with any changes. Every pet parent is different so I tend to stick to what the regular schedule is while pet sitting. After I have finished things like feeding, walking, and cleaning I also like to spend some time with each animal, letting them get to know me and making sure they are happy and healthy. I have walked large, medium, and small breed dogs, I love to do play times, and will always use safe dog/cat toys and encourage good behavior during a session.
About: I love walking my dogs at the river park a goddlendoodle and a labador. Playing fetch, tug a war, and with stuffed animal toys. I make sure the dog has all vaccine's before I watch the dog. I have given dogs medications for different reasons before from owners instructions. I keep a close eye on the dog at all times when watching. I have trained my dogs how to sit, shake,high five, lay down, heel on leash, and how to pay attention on the leash. Message me of you have any questions or want me to watch your pet . I am currently working part-time but have most of my day free and weekends are open book. My cancelation policy is give as much time notice as possible. I will charge for the visit of less than 1 day notice unless of emergency. Play with them, take them on walks, hikes, play at the dog park, take them swimming. I also offer treats if owner says it is ok.
“Ashley was very kind, caring and attentive! I have two holland lop buns and she was so enthusiastic about watching them. Her love for animals shines bright like a diamond. She had great communication and we will be using her for any pet sitting needs we have in the future.”
“Alana was great. She did a drop in for my two dogs. We had a small miscommunication about what was needed and she fixed it immediately with an additional drop in. My dogs were happy and healthy when we got home.”
“Wende was great with my senior Pomeranians. She showed up on time, took them on 2 slow, old dog style walks, gave them meds, and encouraged them to eat their food. Wende is responsible, caring, and knowledgeable about dogs. I highly recommend her.”
“Perfectly satisfied with how Kayleigh cared for our pup. She made alot of effort and was very responsive to our requests such as a call to get to know her and she drove far from town in the snow to take care of her. Thanks Kayleigh for being so flexible! It was just what we needed to have an enjoyable vacation.”
About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) My 1 year old will be accompanying me to any potential jobs, so if you know your pet is not good with kids please let me know. She will have as little access as possible either way, she will most likely be in her stroller. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. I would love to help in any way that I can. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 84 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rock Island. 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.
