“Magnolia was exactly what I was looking for in a pet sitter! I knew right when I met her that my senior kitty was in good hands while I was gone for the weekend. I’ve never used a pet service before and I was nervous, naturally. With a sitter like Magnolia there was no reason to be worried! Smeagol was well taken care of and I will not hesitate to book with Magnolia again. Highly recommend!!!!”
“Anne was great! Always punctual and communicative. We received photos of our boys each visit and she helped with our mail and packages while we were away. Would definitely recommend.”
“My cats were well taken care of Oliver is professional and wonderful he communicated effectively and he even made sure to give my babies the full attention they wanted highly recommend”
About: I grew up around greyhounds specifically, and have a love for all dogs and cats! A couch potato or a pet that loves to run and play, I can keep up with either. :-) I can work from home for short periods if absolutely necessary as well, so your baby doesn’t have to be alone. I’d love to hang out with your furry friends! I currently work full-time in a office, but have the ability to work from home if absolutely necessary for short periods (2-3 days at a time), I work a regular morning schedule and am off at 4:30 every day, and am off on the weekends. I also get an hour lunch, so I can stop by to check on pets during that time as well. I follow your routine; feeding, walking, giving meds. Giving them at least an hour of play a day, or more if that’s a part of your normal schedule. Keeping them engaged, or just relaxing with them on the couch; whichever they prefer to make sure your pet has the most comfort. Keeping their environment clean, tidy, and organized. No litter box left unclean! Plus making sure to keep all doors locked, and personal items out of pets’ reach.

“I was really pleased with Jenna. I could tell my bunny got really comfortable especially in the last pic she sent me when Pepper was asking her for treats! She followed all of my instructions to a T. She arrived for her visits promptly and sent me a Rover card with pics every time which I appreciated. When I came home Pepper was doing great. Thanks Jenna!”
“This was the first time having Riley pet sat for us, and it certainly won’t be the last! We have 2 cats and a dog. They loved her. Riley is personable and responsible. We had 2 deliveries occur while we were gone that she brought in for us. Highly recommend her!”
“Bailey is a very conscientious and thoughtful caretaker. She did a great job with my cat. She gave her lots of love and attention, and she was in excellent shape when I returned home. The cat and I agree — I will be using her again and my cat has a new friend.”
“Jessica took great care of my cat and gave her oral medication on time. She really cared about understanding my pets personality so she could tailor her pet sitting approach to my cat’s specific needs. I would absolutely recommend!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I currently have nine cats, both indoor and outdoor, and have raised Old English Bulldogs and German Shepherds. I grew up around larger animals as well, including horses and cattle, so I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and personalities. I’m also familiar with veterinary medicine and animal health, and I’m fortunate to have a certified veterinarian in my family who has given me additional insight into quality animal care. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’m committed to providing them with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own animals. I have a very flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends, so pet care can easily fit into my routine. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s needs, whether that means drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, walks, or other in-home care. I can most likely accommodate the schedule that works best for you and your pets! I’m happy to provide drop-in visits to give your pets some mid-day attention, companionship, and relief while you’re away. I’m comfortable walking your pets, feeding them according to your specific instructions, refreshing water, cleaning up after them, and administering medications when provided with clear instructions. Every pet and household is different, so if you have a particular routine or request, please feel free to ask. I will most likely be able to accommodate it! I do not provide overnight stays, and I do not board other pets in my home because I have cats of my own.
“Tara took great care of our cats while my husband and I were out of town. Those pictures she sent me at each visits helped me feel better knowing they are safe and well taken care of. Thank you!”
“Andrenette was amazing! Very communicative, brought treats and left gifts for my cats!! We really appreciate her love of animals and the great attention she had for our stray outdoor cats!!!”
“Jenny was amazing and so accommodating!! I really appreciated all her pictures and I could tell my dog was so happy when I got home, despite being gone all day. I will definitely book her again!”
About: Back in 2014, I attended Tennessee College of Applied Technology, graduated early with my diploma in Assistance Animal Laboratory Technicians, also with a certification in Purina Mills Animal Care Course. I have done an internship with North Shelby Animal Shelter as well as Bartlett Animal Shelte, where I took stray dogs/ abandoned out for walks and to play. Most of the dogs I encountered with at the shelter were sweet and loving dogs that just need a friend and time to spend with a person. I treated those dogs as my own. I have also intern at University of Tennessee Health and Science Center taking care of rodents, pigs, and other animals. I am someone who is mature, candid and who has integrity. Everyday I work to improve myself and my skills which is part of maturing and becoming better at what I do, this is why I want clients to choose me. I will treat your pets as my own pets. I will love and care for them, as if they where my own.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rugby on Rover is $18.55 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
