“Sara Z is my favorite dog sitter ! I just met her a week ago but I know I will always call her to take care of my Mutzy and Kobe . She came twice a day on time ...to take care of my fur babies. She hand fed my 12 years old so she can make sure she gives him the vetsuline shots after his meal. She is sweet , calm and my babies loved her. Anyone who needs a vacation ... call Sara Z ... you can enjoy your time away from home ... because they will be taken care of by the loving Sara Z . I promise !!!”
“We could not be happier with the attention and care taken while we were away. This was our first time away from the cats, and their first time without us. When we returned they were happy, running around, tails in the air, and acting normal as if nothing different had happened. Maybe a little hurt they didn't seem to mind us being away, but that is all the better. We'll be back with Alyssa next years vacation, without any questions or hesitation.”
“Michelle was great, communicative, flexible, reported back on the kitties so we were well in the loop the entire time we were away. Will absolutely rebook with her the next time we go away. Thank you Michelle!!”
“I am so grateful that I found Danielle! She is extremely reliable, flexible and my dogs LOVE her. My dogs are always tuckered out when she is done playing with them and they love when she comes. Not only is she reliable and treats my dogs as if they were her own, she makes sure the bag gate is locked, sends photos, and communicates. Danielle comes on a daily basis and I would highly recommend her. Thanks Danielle!!”
About: I’ve always taken care of dogs and cats and I have been trusted many times to babysit my family and friends fur babies! I’ve taken multiple dogs on walks while assuring that they are in a safe environment! I have a big heart when it comes to giving the care an animal needs! I love to stay on my feet and stay active while also assuring your babies get their needed exercise! And their potty breaks! :) I have 3 cats and 2 doggies which is my responsibility every day to feed them and make sure that their needs are met and are living the comfortable life that they deserve! Every morning giving them their potty breaks and also some playtime to get the day started! Every morning I let out my dog to use the restroom and take him out on a walk to get the morning going! I’m always ready to be active and enjoy long walks! Maintaining the safety of our animals is also top priority!
“Amanda is awesome! She was very attentive and followed instructions precisely. She was also great at communicating every detail and asked for guidance whenever she faced an issue we hadn't addressed. I highly recommend her, and will use her again!”

About: I love animals especially dogs. My friends trust me to watch their animals all the time I took in a cat for 3 months and a dog for 4 months until the owners were able to take them back. Providing great services at all means.Need a trustworthy sitter when your away I’m your gal. Need a weekend away I am available. I have two dogs of my own Otis and Jax. Providing all your needs. Willing to give pet baths and provide them with whatever is needed. If they need more than one walk a day or you just want me to check on them I’m more than willing to help in any way possible. Make your life easier and so you can be at ease when not home. Let’s face it our fur babies are more than pets they are our family and we want the best possible care like we do to our children. I’m available every weekend and during the week I am usually not busy after work I am able to care in the evening whenever may be needed. I love animals especially cats and dogs I have a fenced yard and 2 wonderful dogs to keep your fur baby company. Lots of space to run around and have fun. I will also crate if needed I am currently working per diem and have plenty of time on my hands to care for your fur baby. If by any chance I step away from home my son and husband are home all day. My husband works from home and is able to provide his full attention from home and my son is currently on independent study and dedicates his time to provide care for your fur baby. My home is fully gated front yard and back yard. Inside the home I have a pet gate so they are not able to get out of the front door. If your fur baby prefers to be inside that is completely ok and I do allow the fur babies to sleep on the furniture and on my bed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 6,797 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Russ. 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.

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.
