“Grace and & Amara did a great job of looking after our girls (3 cats)! It always eases my anxiety to get updates and pictures, which they were regular about providing.”
About: I’m the owner of Barnyard Pet Retreat. I do dog/cat boarding out of my own home. It’s my full time job so I’ll be with them at all times. I have multiple dogs of my own and I am home full time. So, your fur babies will be monitored and loved at all times! I have a great potty routine that my dogs are currently on. I have anywhere from small dogs to big dogs in my household so your fur baby will have a lot of company. I can cage your dogs if needed or my own for your fur baby’s comfort.
About: With over 15 years of experience caring for animals, I’ve had the opportunity to work with all kinds of pets and their unique needs. My experience includes working as a veterinary technician, pet and farm sitting, administering medications, wildlife rehabilitation, senior pet care, and exotic animal care—and that’s just the beginning! I understand that your pets are family, and leaving them in someone else’s care can be stressful. My goal is to provide the same patience, compassion, and attention to detail that I would want for my own animals, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced and caring hands. We both work during the week, but we’re home the majority of the time on weekends and have a flexible schedule that allows us to give your pets plenty of attention. I work at a veterinary hospital just 3 minutes from home, so I’m able to easily come home throughout the day if needed. I also have extended lunch breaks, which gives me the opportunity to spend several hours at home during the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. Our schedule allows us to provide plenty of companionship, care, and attention throughout the day, so your pets can feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Our home is relaxed, loving, and easygoing, and we want every pet who stays with us to feel like part of the family. We do ask that all pets are comfortable around other animals so everyone can get along and have a safe, stress-free stay. We have a large, fully fenced backyard with a 6-foot privacy fence, giving the dogs plenty of safe space to run, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We spend lots of time outside playing, getting some exercise, and enjoying the yard together. And yes—dogs are absolutely welcome on the furniture and even in the bed! Our own two fur babies have us pretty well trained, so your pups can enjoy the same level of comfort. Your pet’s health and safety are incredibly important to us. I’m a trained veterinary technician and CPR-trained, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced hands. If a health concern ever comes up, I’m able to assess them and, if necessary, bring them with me to the veterinary hospital where I work so they can be properly evaluated. For the safety and health of every pet in our home, we require all visiting pets to be current on Bordetella, Distemper/Parvo, and Rabies vaccinations. We are also a flea-free home, so all pets must be on a current monthly flea and tick preventative. This is a requirement for every pet staying with us and helps ensure that everyone—including our own fur babies—stay happy, healthy, and comfortable. Our goal is simple: while you’re away, we want your pet to feel safe, loved, spoiled, and right at home.
About: I’ve helped friends and family with their dogs my whole life, adapting to each dog’s needs to ensure they’re more than happy in my care. With me, your dog will never miss a walk, belly rub, or tug-of-war game with their favorite toy. It’s crucial to me that when your dog comes to stay with me, it feels like a home away from home, which is why I encourage meet-and-greets before any stays to ensure it’s a good fit. Above all else, I’d like to go above and beyond for your beloved pet and keep them safe and happy in my care!

“Kaylee checked on my kitties and they seemed to take to her well - they’ll often hide when people they don’t know are at the house, but they came out and said hi the first visit! Kaylee completed all requested tasks and spent time playing with them. Will book again 🙂”
“We are so glad we found Anna! She is just the sweetest person and our cats love her (and one of our cats doesn’t like anyone!). Anna is flexible, punctual, and a great communicator. Highly recommend her and we will be using her again!”
“Stephanie was fantastic. From the first conversation through her last visit our Liberty was in good hands. I high recommend you book her if you need your dog taken care of. We have no need to book anyone else but her for our loving Liberty. Thanks Stephanie!!”
“I can't say enough good things about Bree! Leaving my cat is always stressful, especially since she needs medication twice a day. But Bree was absolutely amazing. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease. While I was away, Bree sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Piper's well-being. More importantly, she administered Piper's medication perfectly, without any issues. I highly recommend bree to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced cat sitter. She went above and beyond, and I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
About: My experience working in a veterinary hospital over the years has given me valuable hands on experience caring for animals of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable handling pets, understanding their individual needs, and recognizing signs that something may be wrong. Whether caring for senior pets, or animals who need a little extra patience and attention, I believe every pet deserves compassionate, attentive care. I treat every animal as if they were my own! I have two pets of my own a large and small breed dog that I care for daily with feedings, making sure they get their daily activities in. They are older but still sharp as a rock. I also used to care for about 8-10 outdoor cats and 4 indoor cats before I moved to North Carolina. I was doing that for about 3 years and loved every second of it. My own pets get fed around the same time every evening, we go for walks over the weekend and during the week if they are up for it. I am very good at keeping them on a schedule, however some days are different and not always the same depending on work and what life decides to throw at me. I will do my best to keep your pets on a schedule if I must and I can take them for walks, play with them, even take naps with them!
About: Hi! I’m a work-from-home mom who loves animals and understands how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Because I work remotely, pets in my care receive plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing nearby, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to learn what makes your pet happy so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. You’ll receive regular photo updates and communication so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work from home so your baby will get non stop attention! Very flexible job and also schedule to run in and out to go potty, on a walk or play. I will love on your babies with everything I have! I am reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!
About: For the past 4 years, I’ve provided loving, dependable care for cats, dogs, and birds through overnight stays, drop-in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and walks. Cats are my specialty! I’m very experienced with feline behavior, shy cats and multi-cat households. I love making pets feel calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and routines, including daily walks, companionship, and overnight care. In addition, I have hands on experience with tropical birds and understand the importance of patience, consistency and attention to detail when caring for exotic pets. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every animal! I take my time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I am reliable, communicative, and committed to making pet parents feel confident while they’re away through regular updates and attentive care. I am currently a part-time worker at a local pharmacy and a Full-Time college student looking to make extra money while doing what I love. I am free at least 3-4 days a week, the more notice the better I can work around your preferred schedule. My preference is afternoons, however if mornings or nights are needed I can accommodate! I am more free during week days but can make time on weekends around my work schedule as I typically only work 5-6 hour shifts. I currently can not offer my personal living quarters for care, however I am able to travel up to 40 miles to stay with or check on pets. If you are in need of someone urgently and live outside a 40 mile radius please message me directly and I may be able to still work with you! I will walk, feed, stay with, play with and care for various cats and dog breeds! I also have experience with tropical birds and fish if need be. I will clean up after all animals and leave your home tidy and neat, as well as provide updates at your desired time span i.e (Daily, Hourly, Etc.).
About: I have been taking care of animals of all species my entire life! I have administered medicine such as insulin shots and vaccines, oral medication, special food routines and times, and have even rehabbed kittens, puppies, and wild species from growing up in Rural Texas. I’ve trained dogs and cats alike, and I’ve even done a little grooming. I have all the time and love in my heart to give your pet the best possible care. I work from home full time so I have all the time and availability to give your animal the best possible care! Who doesn’t love furry friends as coworkers? I live in a private, homey apartment with a lot of space and designated pet areas. I have one cat who is a friend to all species and folks, and he would love to hang out or be totally fine in his own space! (I have two bedrooms)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 597 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Roughedge. 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Roughedge. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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 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.
