“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.”


“She was absolutely wonderful. Very sweet, and tentative to our animals. We feel that she went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend her services. And we will definitely use her in the future.”


“Ashley was absolutely wonderful! I love that Boyd had an entire house and patio with other cats to chill out in and with while I was away for so long. I will definitely contact her again when I need Boyd to stay someplace safe, relaxing, and fun while I’m away.”

“Sasha took great care of our three young cats! She's super communicative and sends us lots of photos. She's also great at capturing the cute and funny moments🤣 We can definitely tell her love of cats, and we feel safe to trust her with our babies.”

“I was very grateful to have Angelina come out and take care of our new adopted cat Aria. She was accommodating, conscientious, patient and is a great communicator. She offered to housesit as well, which was a huge relief. I will definitely request her services again.”

“Chelsea took wonderful care of my cat and was reliable, attentive, and kind throughout the whole stay. She made me feel comfortable knowing my cat was in good hands, and I truly appreciated her care and communication. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her. If you want, I can make it warmer, more personal, or even shorter for Rover.”

About: Hi I'm Roxi, I have a 14year old red dandy Dachshund named Zoë who loves to burrow under my blankets and pillows. I have to tap my sheets everytime to make sure I don't squish her when I want to jump in my own bed!! She gets so much time outside to the point it's boring for her to go out. Whenever I open the door for her to bust out running, she'll simply just lay down and soak up the sun. She loves getting petted and getting attention from other people other than her real huMom. Please let me walk your fur baby so we can make their daily step goals!!!🐶🐕🦮🐕🦺🐩 I enjoy making pet care a natural part of my routine in between my home visits as a nurse. I’m able to provide consistent visits, feeding, playtime, litter care, and plenty of love and attention. I’m dependable and flexible, and I always make sure each cat feels comfortable and cared for while their family is away. 🐾💕 I care for my cat and dog with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of affection. I also respect their space and make sure their home is left clean and secure. My goal is for each kitty and pups to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. 🐱💕

“My 2 kitties have been lucky to have Lexy as their favorite pet sitter! It's been over 2 years that we have been clients/friends. I highly recommend Lexy for your pet sitting needs. I have never had to worry while I've been out of town. Lots of pictures and love! JH”

“10/10!! If I could leave more stars I would!! Maizy went above and beyond for my sweet boy and made sure he was loved and cared for while I was away:) She truly cares about animals and always goes the extra mile to make sure even senior babies or those with anxiety are at ease. Plus she’s the sweetest!! Book with her! you won’t be disappointed!!”

About: I have 12+ years of professional pet care experience and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’m Fear Free Certified and Pet First Aid & CPR Certified, and I take pride in providing dependable, attentive care that is tailored to each individual pet. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets and understand that they often need a little extra patience, attention, and flexibility. I’m also comfortable caring for shy, anxious, or slower-to-warm-up pets and always allow them to interact with me at their own pace. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, appetite, mobility, and changes in routine so I can help keep your pet comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether I’m providing boarding, house sitting, daycare, or drop-in visits, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule and preferences. That includes meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and plenty of downtime depending on what makes your pet happiest. I know that the little details matter, so I take the time to learn your pet’s routine before their stay. Communication is incredibly important to me. You can expect regular updates and lots of photos so you can see how your pet is doing and enjoy your time away without wondering what’s happening back home. Most importantly, I care for every pet as an individual. Some dogs want to play all day, some would rather curl up next to me on the couch, and some need time to decide whether I’m worthy of being their new friend! My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and positive experience where your pet receives the same level of attention and affection I would want for my own. 🐾 I work from home Monday through Friday, with a set schedule from 5 AM to 2 PM. This allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, ensuring pets are fed, let out, and cared for even during my work hours. I also use my lunch break for walks, giving pets a chance to stretch their legs and get some fresh air. My home features a secure fenced backyard, providing a safe space for pets to play and explore freely. With weekends free and the ability to adjust my schedule, I’m available to pet sit any day of the week, ensuring your furry friends receive the love, attention, and exercise they need. Whether it’s daily care, walks, or playtime in the backyard, I’m here to keep your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, secure, and loving environment where pets feel at ease. My home is pet-friendly, with a fenced backyard for supervised play and plenty of indoor space for rest and relaxation. I ensure pets have their own comfortable areas and follow any specific instructions to maintain their routine. In your home, I prioritize trust and respect by adhering to your guidelines and treating your space as if it were my own. I ensure pets are fed on time, walked regularly, and given plenty of attention and affection. Safety is always my top priority, whether it’s securing gates, keeping toxic items out of reach, or being attentive to pets’ behavior. I communicate openly with pet owners, providing updates and photos so you can rest assured your pets are in good hands. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your furry family members.

About: As an animal lover I enjoy meeting new furry friends and taking care of them is a joy to me. I love what I do as it ensures one more animal will receive the love and attention they deserve. My first pet sitting gig was for my neighbor when I was 10. They had a sweet boxer named Bruiser. Since then I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and breeds along with cats, birds, chickens, and bunnies! Friends, family, coworkers and neighbors have all relied on me to take exceptional care of their pets. I’ve got experience bathing/brushing as well. I also have experience with special needs dogs (blind, deaf, immobile) along with the seniors. I’ve been told many times I have “great energy”.

I typically spend more time with your pets than required as I enjoy being around dogs + cats and animals so much! In my home, I have a fenced yard and a calm, sweet rescue cat to keep your dog or cat company while you’re gone! I can also provide care at your home if that’s best for your pet. While I’m a professional, this doesn’t feel like ‘work’ to me as I’m passionate about providing excellent pet care! Bonus: I always send cute pics + videos!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,955 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 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.
