Joshua is a great communicator and takes such good care of our cat when we’re away. He’s great at following the directions we provide and sharing pictures and recaps of his visits. He’s trustworthy and we know he truly cares about our fur baby. Thank you, Joshua!!!

I booked her literally for a 6 minute meet and greet on the first visit. I’m very pleased that she agreed to this because I’ve had other people tell me no before. I’m excited to use Isabella’s services!

Kim was INCREDIBLE! I have a ragdoll kitty who is very needy! I work from home and had NEVER left him alone overnight. Our first trip away was EIGHT nights!! I was so stressed to leave him and had no idea what to expect! I had Kim come over in the morning and the evening - when he follows us around like a puppy dog! She loved on him, played with him, gave him treats and even brushed him daily!!! He got all the love he needed and after a couple visits by Kim I felt 100% at ease and no stress at all! I will be hiring her every single time from this point on! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Available for midday walks and sitting evenings/weekends. I am happy to provide snuggles, walks, park trips, feeding and treats.

About: I have taken care of all of my families pets for most of my life. I also used to help my godmother with her pet sitting/walking business and through this learned the ins and outs of pet sitting and what different owners require! I currently work a part time job where I am given the schedule for the next week the week before, but I have 14 days to schedule off of work. So, my schedule is open as long as I am given well enough notice to be able to call off of work! My experience with my personal animals is that I feed, wash, and provide my pets with the care they need. My personal animals are in a fenced yard, but I frequently walk them around my neighborhood. With my cats I provide similar care, taking care of their litter and grooming and food needs.

About: I’ve been caring for pets as long as I can remember. I generally just do it as a favor for friends and relatives. I currently own two dogs. I’m good with any age of a dog or cat. I work everyday during the week. However, I do have time on my lunch break to let animals out depending on the distance. I’m free after 4:30 on business days and 3 on weekends. I don’t have a problem staying the night at someone’s house if it’s needed. I cannot currently dog sit at my house due to one of my dogs being aggressive. He’s very slow to warm up and I don’t want to chance it.

About: I have been a pet sitter since two years ago. I sat and walked my friend’s dog who lives in Chicago for the past two years. I’m currently working part time, so I have the time to take care of any animal as long the animals doesn’t bite me. I would feed them as needed and walk them 3 times a day. I don’t have a dog at the moment, but my cat is taken well care of and given plenty of love.

About: Multiple pets growing up. I've had the meanest and shyest animals loving me in a couple days. Military veteran who was taking care of many humans as if they were children/pets. I'm great for if you need to take a weekend trip or short term vacation. !!After 5 days my rate does go up!! My calendar is open for 3 months from the current day. If you need to reserve me for later than that, there will be a reservation charge($50/month past open calendar) . I prefer a planned ahead booking but it doesn't hurt to check last second with me. I'll always try to help if I can! I get along with all animals every day. I am excited to help you take care of your doggo. I follow instructions to the T. Your pet is very important to you and I will make sure they are comfortable/safe. They will be a happier puppy when you see them next!

Lillian was fantastic! Both of my pups absolutely loved her. They got good time with her and she did so well with our big boy. Cannot say enough good things. Will definitely have her sit our dogs again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 1,553 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Royster. 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 with handling special pet needs in Royster. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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 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.
