“Sandra was so great with my cat Koji!! Even though Koji was at times shy, Sandra gave her lots of attention and love throughout her visits, which definitely helped Koji do better while we were gone. She sent me tons of pics and videos and lots of updates. We had some last minute changes to the booking which Sandra was very accommodating with. I’m also at times an anxious pet mom, and Sandra was always very understanding and reassuring whenever I worried about my cat! She followed all instructions I provided and went above and beyond. I absolutely recommend her!”

About: Plenty of references with my regular customers that I can share. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve long been the go-to person for family and friends when they need someone they trust to care for their pets. I also volunteer with Dogs Inc., which has given me even more appreciation for understanding dog behavior and providing consistent, thoughtful care. Hi! I’m a lifelong dog mom and recently retired professional who now has the time to focus on something I truly love spending time with animals. Animals have always been part of my life, and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I’m also a volunteer with Dogs Inc., which has given me an even deeper appreciation for dog behavior, patience, and understanding different personalities. I’m physically fit and active, so daily walks, playtime, and keeping up with energetic dogs is something I truly enjoy. I share my home with my dog Roxie, who absolutely loves having visiting dogs around. She’s very friendly and quickly becomes the welcoming committee for any new house guests. Because I’m retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, visits, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog needs exercise, a midday visit, or a comfortable place to stay, I love making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. I provide a safe, calm, and trusting environment and care for every pet just as I would my own, with plenty of attention, love, and care.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. Since my childhood I’ve learned to take care of them, be kind and give them a lot of loving. I have always loved animals and will care for them as my own. I’m currently working part time. My schedule is very flexible so I have plenty of time to play or walk your pup. Your pup will be treated like my own. Each pup is different being that every pet has their own personality. I love playing and giving them treats and making sure they are feeling comfortable while being away from their parents.

“Lily went above and beyond for my 2 Poms. She communicated with me everyday with photos and videos which I loved. My girls looked so happy and relaxed with Lily and that comforting. She's a sweet, soft spoken person and I can tell she has a kind loving heart for animals and people. I will recommend Lily to my family and I will contact her again to dog sit for us. Thank you Lily!”

About: I have cared for or been around almost every dog breed that exists. Every time I meet a new pet, it very easy for me to get comfortable with them and show them the respect they deserve in order for them to get comfortable with me. I have owned 3 different dog breeds, each different sizes. Big, medium, or small, I am able to walk and play with them all! I am currently in flight school, flying Saturday to Tuesday every week for 3 hours out of the day. I can attend to your pets before and after a flight, or any time on the days I am not flying (Wednesday to Friday). I will follow your instructions to the last detail. How I walk and play with your dog is how you would walk and play with your dog. I have experience with elderly pets as well and will work with you to get them active without pushing them too much.

About: Currently in Dental Hygiene school, and looking to bring in a little bit of funds to help with school essentials and kids sports. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m a proud owner of two Great Danes, so I’m very comfortable handling large and giant breeds! I also previously worked as a veterinary technician, which gave me valuable experience caring for animals and understanding their needs, behaviors, and overall well-being. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll treat every dog like they’re one of my own. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m currently a full-time student, which gives me flexibility throughout the week to provide walks certain days of the week, some drop in visits, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. As a pet owner myself and with my previous veterinary technician experience, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal routine and schedule to help them feel comfortable while their family is away. 🐾 I treat every pet as if they were my own! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection while also respecting pets who prefer a little more space. With my previous veterinary technician experience, I’m comfortable caring for different breeds, sizes, personalities, and needs. Safety is always my priority, and I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

About: I will walk the dogs multiple times a day and night, if needed. My puppy can come along with me as a friend to play with for your pet if interested, he loves all pets! I am very attentive and loving and take dogs with me everywhere I go, if they are able and want to. I am overall very flexible, loving, attentive, accommodating, and interact with all pets in my own constantly - whether that be talking to them, playing with them in and outside, brushing, petting them while they rest and giving treats (if allowed). Sebastian is my puppy and he is still learning about the world but very sweet and adjusts to all pets if you want me to bring him for your furbaby to have a friend also! If not thats ok too, I am only caring for pets in their own home though and happy to take them to parks etc to play if prefer! I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and make my own schedule. I walk multiple times a day as well as go to dog parks that are safe where I know the regulars. I am very loving, attentive, flexible and experienced. I was a Nanny for high profile families in Los Angeles & DC. I have been a Certified Nanny & Caregiver for disabled children, teens and adults as well as a Petsitter, Housesitter, and Personal Assistsnt to CEO’s for 20 years before I switched to working from home.

About: As a young lady with 5 years of experience I still have lots to learn , but with the 5 years of experience that I have I've gained a lot of information about breeds and dogs in general. As a young girl I've always loved animals. I'd invest my time in volunteering at my local animal shelter where I cleaned up after puppies, walked dogs, feeding dogs, and making sure their blankets/pee pads were changed roughly 2-4 times a day. I even helped out my neighbor when her dog had her first litter of puppies (where I walked, pee pad trained, cleaned/washed, fed, and played with the puppies). Growing up having a Saint Benard, Dachshund, Dingo and Shitzu taught me that no matter what the size he/she is there all big babies that want some love. I can house sit any day of the week/weekend. However, I do have another job that I work full time with (Monday-Friday 7:30am-4:00pm). Outside from those hours I am available. Before I leave for work or I go anywhere in the morning I let my dog outside to go potty in my fenced in back yard. I make sure his water bowl is clean and full as well as he has his breakfast. Once I get home from work I let him out do go potty once again clean his water bowl and make sure he once again has clean water. Once that is done I like to play fetch with him and then bring him inside to cool off. I usually feed him his dinner at 8:00pm and then he goes out to potty one last time. On the weekends I love to take him to the dog beaches in Venice or St. Pete if the weather is good. When it comes to feeding my dog he is on a very healthy diet due to his grain allergy and his G.I. Tract.

Our two kitties are friendly but shy of strangers, so we didn't expect much interaction between them and Catherine. Not so; by the second day everyone was the best of friends, Maybe the cats can sense kindness because we believe Catherine went out of her way to be kind to them. She spent time with them and communicated promptly with us while we were gone. We loved what she did for us, and for sure she is our "go-to" person for future pet care.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Rubonia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Rubonia is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,917 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rubonia. 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 .

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rubonia. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 , 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.
