“Beth was amazing and took such good care of our cat!! She was very understanding with a communication error in the beginning, and spent a lot of time playing with our cat who can be shy at first but warmed right up to her! We will definitely be using her again- thanks Beth!”
“Abby was incredible! I could go on and on for days. I have never used this service and was so nervous to have a stranger in my home with my prized possession our bean but with her I felt no apprehension at all. She came a few days before to meet him and allow us to ask questions. Her communication throughout the days was great. She was extremely kind and accommodating and my introvert cat acceptable loved her. Will definitely book her over and over for any needs we may have in the future. Could not rate her anymore highly.”

My family had our own Bassett Hound for 10 years! I do shelter skip day every once in a while to spend time with dogs for the day! Im currently in college, with classes Monday through Thursday, and off Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. My class schedule varies day to day, but my late afternoon to evening is free, and most of my classes are in the morning! I will always make an effort to work things out! I socialize on the weekends, but will always be able to put time aside! I can walk dogs in neighborhoods or parks, I also can play and chill with your baby and take them out to play and go potty. I will also follow your feeding schedule! My care is flexible depending on what you need!

“Hanna was an absolute pleasure! The daily cat pictures and focus on making sure they were safe and comfortable was beyond appreciated while we were away. Hanna is a true animal lover and it shows! Can’t wait to book her in the future.”
About: I’ve owned dogs, cats, and horses my entire life. I’ve been dog sitting for others for 7 years. I’ve owned dogs with behavioral issues from resource guarding to fear reactivity towards other people and animals and medical needs like Degenerative Myelopathy, ACL tears, dental disease, and an enlarged heart requiring specialized attention and care. I am a lead volunteer trainer of new volunteer dog handlers at the Harrisburg Humane Society. When I’m not training new volunteers, I handle dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, behavioral, and medical needs. I’ve taken dogs to off site events for exposure and I’m an adoption counselor helping pair families with the right dog for their home. I have worked with rescue and foster dogs. I will make sure that your dog’s needs are met and will meet them at their level while helping them grow. I will work on patience and consistency, and I will even work on commands with them. I have experience walking multiple dogs at once as well. Your dog’s needs will be met and they will be just as loved and happy until you get home to them! I am currently a high school English teacher and pursuing my Masters in Business Administration and Strategic Leadership while also running volunteer trainings at the Humane Society of Harrisburg weekly. I love working with people and animals while educating both and this allows me the flexibility to do what I love. From the end of August-middle of June I primarily have hours after 4 and through the evening during the week. While I am on breaks throughout the year and during summer, my availability is open during the mornings and daytime as well. I can be flexible on weekends depending on the time and day! I will meet every need you have for your dog or cat. I am reliable, patient, and consistent. I can work on things your pet is struggling with like impulse control, commands, leash walking, etc. I am comfortable crating and separating pets as needed. If your dog has reactivity with new people or other animals - I have an extra soft spot for them as my own pets have struggled with that. I will do slow introductions to make sure your pet is building a relationship with me that is safe and comfortable at their pace. Consistency, patience, and structure is key. I can provide a mix of walks and play time as well as enrichment if the weather is bad. I do not mind the weather changes or daylight changes as their needs come first. Even if your dog wants a quick walk and cuddle time, we will do what they need. I will also communicate with you each time by sending a detailed pet update or report card so you know how they are doing.
About: I've been pet sitting since i was 13, I am currently 19 with a dog and cat of my own! I've taken care of seniors as-well as puppies. I've potty trained, taught tricks, and have done special care when needed. I love to go on long hikes and bring my dog with me! I go on walks about 3 times a day, as my dog is very active. Feel free to ask me questions! I would love to watch your pup. :) I'm available for pet sitting any day of the week at any times! I can handle seniors aswell as active dogs. I would love to spend time with your pup. I have one super friendly dog that loves to play and gets along great with cats. I go on 3 walks a day with my pup. She is very active and friendly. Your pup will be able to relax and also get the outside time they need. I have a big fenced in backyard perfect for running around and playing.
“When Savonah is taking care of your pets, you can rest assured they are receiving the best care. She is also very good at letting you know of any concerns. We are glad to have found her! :)”
“Amanda was wonderful! We did a meet and great and she quickly learned what we needed done each day of our trip. After the meet and great I was still worried and she was very willing to make another trip out to our home before our trip to appease me. She was very concerned about our one cat because she would not eat for her, but she worked it out and tried different things to gain Mikad trust and she finally trusted Amanda to come out and eat. She was quick to respond to me any time I reached out to her. We were very happy!”
“Zandra did an amazing job- our three cats were so well taken care of, we got lots of great updates and our house was spotless on return. We couldn’t ask for more- 10 stars! Thank you Zandra!!!!”
About: I LOVE dogs and cats! Growing up, my family always had big dogs and fluffy cats around the house; so throughout my life I have gained experience caring for puppies and kittens all the way up to seniors. I adore dogs of all sizes, but big dogs will always have a special place in my heart. We owned a Rottie/Lab mix, a Great Dane, an English Mastiff, Boxer, and various Doodle breeds. We also had 3 Ragdoll cats. I currently have 3 Domestic Short and Long haired cats of my own with my fiancé and I love them dearly; but I really miss having a dog around the house. Helping people care for pets on here seemed like the perfect way to help me hang with pups! I frequently assist my friends and family with pet sitting, dog walking, and caring for their animals while they are away. Outside of animals, I work for The Department of State as a Legal Assistant and sit for 8 hours a day at a desk. Taking a dog on a nice walk or having a play session with pets sounds like a very pleasant way for me spend my time after sitting in an office all day. I also love to read, cook/bake, do yoga, play video games, and play softball on my women’s community team! I’m currently working a full time office job from 7:30am to 4:00pm, so I can be available on weekdays any time after 4:30pm or early in the morning . I can be available anytime on weekends with enough notice to plan. As much as I would love to help people board their pets, I can’t given the size of my apartment. My home is just for me and my cats :)
“You were amazing and took good care of axle. So sorry he got so stressed out on you, he’s a neurotic dog who hasn’t spent any time away from me so the fact that ge held out for so long is impressive to me. Thank you, and again, I’m sorry for his behavior”
“Steffany took great care of my 2 cats! She provided frequent updates and photos, and made sure they were tended to. Her beautiful chocolate lab was very good with my cats as well. Hopefully it will help ease their nervousness around dogs. I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: There has always been a pet in the home since childhood, I’ve watched and taken care of 5 personally owned dogs from puppyhood to adulthood! I have babysat my aunts cat Tammy for a few months now, and I have taken care of my own dog Maestro when my parents are on vacation, or need an extra pick-me-up. I also have been volunteering at Humane Society of Harrisburg for about a few months now! I have always had a huge heart towards animals of all personalities and sizes. I’ve worked with nervous big dogs, to crazy little puppies! I would be more than willing to meet your amazing animal someday! 😊💕 I have a car available at all times, so I am easily able to provide as much time and energy as your animal needs. I also do not have a typical job, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I will be super respectful of your space and keep notes about certain things your animal needs, and provide spectacular feedback on how your animal is feeling, how the day went, overall what happened during my service! I am a wonderful listener and I learn extremely quickly.
“Hannah is wonderful! The first time I requested her she was not able to walk our pup but she recommended her daughters and husband and they were wonderfully reliable and loving of Finn! Hannah sends videos and pictures! She is very responsive and responsible with all of things that care for our pup! I highly recommend her and am so grateful to have met her through Rover!”
About: People have always told me that I am comparable caring even to pets. They deserve every bit of kindness just like people! A safe and reliable environment at your home! I am able to walk and feed the animals before I go to work and after I come home. As well as having off on Monday& Tuesdays. I can walk and feed your pets in the morning, throughout the day when I’m off I can show them the attention and love they need. I will make sure they always have fresh food&water. As well as making them feel at home when They are away!
About: I’m one of the only people that could take care of my one friends dog because it was very mean. I stay at peoples house to watch their pets or just stop in throughout the day. I currently work full time, I go before work and then after work. If I’m not staying the night I go again before bed time. If I’m staying I go after work and then either get dinner or make dinner then stay for the night. When I’m taking care of others pets I do as if they are my own. I make sure they are happy, healthy, eating, drinking and doing their business. If something seems off I will inform the client to make sure it is normal for them. I want the clients to feel comfortable and sure their pets are being cared for while they are away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Royalton
Beth is wonderful!! This is our second time having her over and she takes great care of our animals. Our female dog is very shy with strangers and Beth did amazing helping her warm up, and our cat who normally hides from new people completely wanted pets and attention from Beth. She went above what was asked and made sure all our animals were happy and comfortable while we were away. We appreciate her so much!!
So grateful I was able to book Beth when last minute travel plans popped up. She was wonderful coming to do drop in visits for my kitties over a very hot and holiday weekend. It really eased my anxiety of being away from them knowing that Beth was checking in on them and giving them some attention! She sent great updates, made sure they had food fresh water and clean boxes and spent time playing with them sending pictures that really made my day! My cats must have loved her as all 3 came out to see her each visit and two of them can be shy - but not this time! Thank you Beth! Will book again (hopefully more in advance) when I am next away:)
Beth was wonderful! She came up to greet the pets before the stay since our female dog is very shy. Her reports each day were very thorough and she was attentive to each animals' needs. We had a hiccup with our intact female dog hitting heat right when we left but Beth handled it beautifully. All three animals looked great when we got back. We were so thankful she could take a last minute booking for a holiday weekend and was able to give our puppies timely potty breaks even with us living in a third floor apartment. We would definitely use her again.
Victoria is excellent! It was the first time I needed to leave my cat at home and I was nervous about finding the right support. Victoria provided me with clarity, daily updates, commitment, friendship and kindness. Sakura (my cat) was in good hands, thanks to Victoria!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Royalton is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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.

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.
