“Christina took excellent care of our two cats and a hermit crab while we were away for a whole holiday week. The update notes and photos made us feel so much better while we were so far away. Her knowledge and skills gave us complete confidence, and we would absolutely book with her again in the future.”
About: My passion for animal care began at age 8 and spans over 13 years of hands-on experience from personal pets as well as from my career. Currently, I work as a veterinary assistant at a general practice clinic, where I assist with routine examinations, diagnostic procedures, and treatment protocols while providing compassionate care to animals and educating pet owners. I am currently enrolled in the Veterinary Technology Program at Delaware Technical Community College, pursuing comprehensive training in animal health, medical procedures, and veterinary science. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I maintain flexible availability to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m completely free on weekends and available most weekdays after 6pm. As a veterinary assistant, I understand the importance of consistent care and reliable scheduling. Whether your pet needs daily walks, overnight stays, or weekend adventures, I can adapt my schedule to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. My veterinary background also means I’m comfortable with any special care requirements or medication schedules your pet may have I provide pet care exclusively in clients’ homes, keeping your pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their established routines. As a veterinary assistant, I’m trained to recognize health concerns and can handle everything from basic daily care to administering medications or special needs. I follow all specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and house rules while ensuring doors and gates stay secure. You’ll receive regular updates with photos about your pet’s activities. I treat your home with complete respect, leaving everything clean and secure. With 13+ years of pet care experience and professional veterinary training, I’m committed to giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: My schedule can be flexible so please let me know what you need and I'll be sure to let you know if we can make it work! I have owned a couple dogs in the past and dog sit for my family and friends all the time. We currently have two cats that are dog friendly, or tolerant. We’d love to host your fur babies with us for a long weekend to let you get away. I work full-time Mon-Fri so would mostly be available for weekend boarding, Fri-Sun. I am available for drop in visits or walks during the week after 5pm. We have a fully fenced in yard with tons of shade and multiple rooms and spaces to separate animals as needed. Dogs are TOTALLY allowed on furniture and we have healthy treats as their diets allowed. Big neighborhood for walks (with sidewalks) and the pavement is always tested on my own skin before their precious paws. I have lick mats and kongs for mental stimulation and love to fill them with protein and veggies.
“Rachael was amazing! couldn’t have asked for anything more from her, they would send me updates and pictures multiple times throughout the day and it felt like i left my cat with a friend rather than a stranger. She made poseidon feel very comfortable and welcomed? i would definitely recommend and would 100% use her services again if i ever need a cat sitter. Thank you so much Rachael!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting, house sitting and dog walking for awhile up to weeks at a time. I enjoy being around all types of dogs small to big. I love getting all the puppy love!! I’m currently babysitting part-time but I can move my schedule around pretty easily and fast. I would like to pursue pet care part time as well! I have a fenced in backyard in a very quiet neighborhood. I have a dog myself. He is very lovable and doesn’t bother anyone. You tell me your feeding schedule and I will go along with it
About: I have worked and shadowed at three veterinary clinics over the past three years, where I have cared for many dogs and cats, along with their numerous needs. I also have a dog and two cats at home that I take on walks, feed daily, and play with. I am currently shadowing two veterinary practices part-time, where I have improved my animal caregiving skills. I am available the majority of the week to provide pet care for others, as can be seen on my calendar. I have very good time management skills and I will always put your pet’s care as my first priority. I will make sure to follow any and all instructions given to me for caring for your pet, and I will be very respectful of your home in the process.
About: I have had dogs since I was a baby. I have cared for dogs of every stage of life, and I’m super passionate about senior dogs and small animals. Both my dogs are friendly with ferrets and other small animals, always supervised of course. I have experience in dogs, cats, ferrets, and all rodents. No experience with reptiles but I have read a lot about the husbandry of geckos and bearded dragons. Always willing to learn to have your pet be most comfortable in our home. I currently work from home so I have plenty of extra time for animals. We (my husband and I) already dedicate a huge portion of our time to our dogs so we would love to add more to the mix lol. My daughter (6yo) also loves animals and is learning the ropes of helping take care of them (future vet in the making) ☺️ We have a very big yard, and while it’s not fenced in there is still plenty of space to run on a lead! I can also help with potty training, pad training and lead training as well as socializing with our two friendly, calm older dogs.
About: Hello furry parents! My name is Lily and I’m excited to support you and your family. I have worked with all dog breeds and all ages through fostering. I am currently in my training certification program to provide proper education to you and your puppers. I am an online student looking to spend my free time with amazing pets. My top priority is to give all animals time and love. Whether it’s giving a long walk, using my dog park at my complex or administering medication, I’m your girl! When I would care for your pets, it’s all about the greeting. I would love to make sure your pets are as comfortable with you as for me! If you’d love me to help them learn tricks, feel free to request!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, Koda and Eddie. Koda is a Cane Corso puppy, which has helped me learn the importance of patience, consistency, positive reinforcement, and proper exercise. I make sure my pups receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and daily care while keeping their safety and comfort a priority. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I would treat every pet in my care like family! 🐶❤️ Pet care is something I enjoy and make time for in my daily schedule. I strive to be flexible, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I communicate with pet parents to coordinate schedules and make sure every pup gets the time, love, and attention they deserve! 🐾 I prioritize safety, patience, and trust when caring for every pet. I make sure each animal feels comfortable, loved, and secure while following the owner’s instructions and respecting each pet’s unique needs. I believe in keeping open communication with pet parents, providing regular updates, and creating a safe, welcoming environment where both pets and their owners can feel confident and at ease. My goal is to treat every pet like family! 🐾❤️

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rodney Village
Elizabeth did an amazing job checking in on my cats while I was away! I really appreciated the pictures of the food bowls, water fountain, and litter box so I knew for sure everything looked good. She sent some wonderful pictures of the cats themselves and even a video of one of them playing with a toy! The boys both seemed to get comfortable with her very quickly and everything was super clean when I got home. She’s a fantastic cat sitter and I definitely hope to book with her again for my next trip!
This was our second time booking with Christina, and it was our first time going away now that both of our cats require daily oral medications. They’re also not super friendly when it comes to strangers, but with Christina’s knowledge and suggestions we came up with a plan that made us feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. She did a fantastic job giving them all of their medicines, and spending time with them, and her clear communication each day always left us feeling like we made the right choice.
Samantha was so good with my 10 year old cat who recently started medication and needs to take it twice a day at very specific times. She came out for a meet and greet on short notice to make sure my cat let her administer her medication before I booked and she really gave me peace of mind for my trip. This was the first time I had used rover and my cat is not used to being by herself so I was really nervous but Samantha was always punctual, spent the full 30 minutes twice a day playing with her, brushing her, and giving her all the pets, and sent updates consistently so I definitely recommend Samantha! Can’t thank Samantha enough!
Chloe did a phenomenal job accompanying and caring for my cat. She has a calm and caring temperament about her and truly cares for the animals under her care. Also, she communicated everything to me in a timely manner and I couldn't recommend her enough! Thanks, Chloe!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Rodney Village is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
