“It was a pleasure to have Susan look after our cat, Mara, while we went on vacation. Upon meeting her, it was clear she really loves animals and wanted our pet to be calm and content while we were away. Susan's updates were prompt, detailed, and had lots of pictures. We came home to a very happy cat and would gladly book Susan again in the future!”
“Kimberly was fantastic, jumping right in to help take care of the cats when I had to rush off to the hospital with a heart attack! she even came to the hospital to get a house key”
“Alexa was a sweetheart!! We had to be somewhere for the day, and we called last minute, and luckily she obliged. She dropped as promised. I cannot say enough about Alexa. She is so responsible and helpful. We will definitely hire her again. Joge/Norma”
“Bri was an absolutely fantastic sitter! Would wholeheartedly both recommend her to other pet families and book her again in the future. Thank you for being such a delight!”
“Briana watched our sweet, shy cat Bob for a week while we were out. We couldn't have asked for a better caregiver and houseguest! Briana sent us regular updates with adorable photos, details about Bob's meals, administered his every-other-day oral medication, and generally helped us rest assured that he was in great hands. I continue to highly recommend Briana to cat parents out there, especially ones with anxious kitties who can be shy.”
“Rebecca was reliable and communicated updates. We really appreciate her helping us with Cocoa especially at the last minute! We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Jennifer did a week’s worth of drop in visits while I was on vacation. She helped keep my older cat healthy by keeping up her medications and sent me a daily update with photos and stopped by before I left to do a meet and greet. One of the best rover sitters I’ve ever worked with. Highly recommend her!!!”
“Michelle was diligent and a very caring cat-sitter. She was able to dispense appropriate medications to my cat, Zola, also. She would also text me pictures daily. I recommend her without reservations.”
“Maryann is an exceptionally attentive petsitter! We love having her take care of our cat. She goes above and beyond to meet his needs and is a great communicator while we’re traveling.”
About: I've grown up with family dogs and have been involved in their daily care for years. Through that experience, I've learned the importance of maintaining routines, providing regular exercise, feeding on schedule, and giving dogs the attention and companionship they need to feel comfortable and happy. I'm comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners, with regular updates and photos along the way! I'm currently working full-time, but I have availability on weeknights and weekends! I'm willing to work on holidays as well and am happy to accommodate the owner's needs. I always prioritize a pet's safety, comfort, and routine. In a client's home, I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences the pet has. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pet is doing.
“Our doggie looked sooo happy and rested when I got back & I know that’s b/c of J’s care. We have an older elderly dog with unique medical needs. This is the sitter you want their patience and care was excellent. Looking forward to rebooking them soon very soon indeed.”
“Kaitlyn was wonderful with my shy, retiring cat. She knows how kitties work and was able to entice her out. She was easy to connect with and gave great updates to make the fur Mom happy. I will be booking her again.”
“Another wonderful sit with Meira! She’s so great about detailed updates and so many photos and videos. Deedles loves her - even I can’t touch the belly, but Meira is allowed!”
“Fiona was an amazing sitter! The dogs loved her, she always showed on time and was always easy to work with on scheduling. She saved me so much stress while trying to get through my night class :)”
“Kristine was amazing over the holiday week I was away. I got video clips and pictures every day. Lots of updates on how my cats were doing. Followed my instructions to the letter and then some. I would definitely schedule her again. Thanks again!!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rumford
Bri was absolutely wonderful !!!!! She cared for my sisters cats for almost 1 month. The cats immediately were friendly with Bri which was a surprise! I can’t say enough positive things but all I know is that Bri is the best! She provided daily updates and pictures for each visit. I am giving Bri 5 stars but she really deserves 10!
Out of all the cat sitters we've used before, our cats bonded with Isabelle and legitimately look forward to her visits. Attentive, caring, and responsive service. She sends detailed reports and pictures and we were never in any doubt that our babies were well cared for. Highly recommend her.
My kitties are always in good hands with Melissa! She goes above and beyond to ensure they are happy, entertained, and kept looking their best! It’s summer and Melissa made sure the coats for both my short and long haired cats were well maintained while we were gone for an extended amount of time.
I travel for work and Kristine is my go-to to watch my 10 year old rag doll cat who can be pretty high maintenance at times (kitty ibs). Kristine is quite literally the best and I know that whatever happens Kristine can handle it and keep me posted in a timely manner. You’d be a silly goober to not book with them!
Stephanie gives our boys the best care possible. I never have to worry about them while we’re away. They’re in the best hands. She’s adept at giving one of my boys his medicine twice a day. She plays with them and pets them and spends a good amount of time with them. She’s the best!
Maryann was wonderful. She arrived prepared, notebook in hand, and was incredibly organized. I could tell right away that she was thoughtful, responsible, and genuinely caring. She also fosters (and has “foster failed”) cats and dogs, so it’s clear how much she loves animals. Highly recommend.
Delaney did an amazing job with our cats. They can a little timid with new people but they quickly warmed up to her. We have one that requires different medication at different times and she handled the schedule easily.. She even played with them for a bit and of course sent pics. The boxes were taken care of and asked questions if needed. We really appreciate all the time and care she showed them. We hope to work with her again. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rumford on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 1,743 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rumford. 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 Rumford. On Rover:

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.
