“Stefanie is an all-star! My fur baby is extra ornery and finicky. Stefanie managed it all. She is a fantastic communicator and kept me in the loop about her every time she stopped in. You are in good hands with Stefanie!”
“Nina is wonderful. She made me feel so safe leaving my 7 month old puppy. I was able to enjoy my vacation and my dog loved her. She has great character and is an educated woman. I was blessed to find her . I wish she lived closer to me.”
“Ashley was wonderful as a pet sitter! She was always timely with her check ins and kept me updated with pictures and other information on how my cat was doing. She did everything exactly the way the instructions I left said and was very respectful of the space. She was also very flexible. I would recommend her to anyone to take care of their pets!”
“Annabel did a great job for my 2 cats while I was away for a week. She sent great pictures and even cleaned up when they got into a treat bag one day. Highly recommend!”
“Cassidy was amazing!! I needed someone to check on my cat while I was out of the country. It was such a relief knowing that Cassidy was keeping an eye on everything and giving Katniss plenty of attention while I was away. She kept me updated everyday and was super accessible for communicating about a few questions that came up while I was gone. I would not hesitate to ask Cassidy to watch my cat again, or any other pets for that matter! Highly recommend!”
“Daniela was amazing. She was tentative, very responsive and went above and beyond. Made me feel better leaving my cat back home knowing he was in good hands Definitely would recommend.”

“Nicole is wonderful with my Atlas. She is always on time, communicative, and sends lots of pics. I was concerned that he might develop separation anxiety when I returned to work, but Nicole’s drop-ins keep him happy and engaged (the only separation anxiety is mine 😊). Her consistency and experience is helping him learn his manners (leash and potty etiquette) very well.”
“I couldn’t recommend Paige more highly! She did an incredible job while I was away. I came home to a spotless apartment and a happy cat. She was attentive, reliable, and kept me updated the entire time, which made it so much easier to relax knowing Ollie was in such good hands!”
“Pam was so great with our two kitties while we were away. She was on time every day and we truly appreciated the extra steps she took like vacuuming and offering to take out the trash. Would definitely book again. Thanks!”
“To say Leigh went above and beyond would be an understatement. She was excellent with my cat. Leigh is patient, accommodating, and was able to interact with my shy cat almost immediately. She pointed out some potential issues and gave suggestions on what to do. She was great, and I very highly recommend her!”

Nina is absolutely fantastic! Her communication was excellent, and she provided detailed daily updates with pictures. My cat needs special care, and Nina was extremely responsible and paid close attention to detail of the care routine. She went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!
Cassidy is a perfect sitter for our two cats! She was so helpful during our vacation, ready to help with everything needed to make our pets’ stay less stressful. Caring and understanding to our girls, detailed in her reports to us, sending photos. I’m so thankful that I found Cassidy - now we have a reliable sitter for all our trips.
Daniela took good care of the cats. Setting up are communications are smooth and easy. Ad hoc requests on unexpected incidents were well taken care of. The house is clean after the sessions. Overall it was a great experience. Will request their help again in the future.
Connor was great watching our cat Pepper while we were away! He sent photos and a detailed check in each day, making sure she had everything she needed. He went above and beyond cleaning around her little box and taking out the trash when he noticed it was full. Pepper can be quite shy, and he took the time to coax her out with toys and give her extra attention! Would highly recommend Connor for any pet sitting needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Roxbury on Rover is $19.98 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Roxbury. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
