About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for animals is something that comes naturally to me. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who loves long walks or a shy kitty who just needs a little extra love, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own—with patience, affection, and attention to their unique needs. From playtime and cuddles to sticking to feeding routines and medications, you can count on me to keep things just right. Let me know how I can help—I’d love to meet your furry friend! Currently returning to school online, so this would be my primary focus during the day while families are away. I am available all day during the week. I care for pets in my clients home by always ensuring that safety is the number one priority. Making sure that leashes and collars are working properly before use, ensuring gates are closed and fenced in yards, and avoiding any unwanted events by following the owners instructions carefully.

“Linda and George did an excellent job of looking after our kitties while we were out of town on an extended stay. We primarily worked with Linda and she was extremely kind, helpful, and communicative. One of our boy's enjoyed her visits so much that he started waiting at the door for her to arrive in the mornings!”

“Ollie LOVED all of the attention from Kate & kids. While he is a social cat, he doesn’t usually take so quickly to new people. Callie still seemed calmer when I came home than when they are left 100% alone. I do think that while she stays under the bed, she appreciates the brief attention (and fresh food/water)”

About: Hi, I’m Leanna! I’m an experienced house and pet sitter and remote freelance professional, which makes me particularly well suited to overnight and multi-day sits. Because I work remotely, I’m often able to spend much of the day at home with the pets in my care while keeping their normal routines intact. I enjoy the quieter side of pet sitting: keeping animals company, feeding and caring for them according to their usual schedule, maintaining a calm home environment, and making sure owners can travel knowing both their pets and their home are being looked after thoughtfully. I’m comfortable following detailed household and pet-care instructions, providing regular updates, bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, keeping the home tidy, and noticing when something seems unusual. My best fits are longer house sits, cats and multi-cat households, lower-energy or older dogs, pets who appreciate having someone around during the day, and households looking for a dependable sitter rather than primarily a dog-walking service. I have previous house and pet-sitting experience and can provide references and testimonials. Generally manage breakfast and litter/potty needs first thing with my morning tea or coffee before starting work. Unless your pets have specific routines, I'll generally take breaks every few hours, plus meal breaks to do check ins, play time, snacks, and activity as needed. I'll make sure I have a thorough understanding of all systems, equipment, and routines you have at home and to respect how you prefer things done (e.g. Floor only, specific snacks, no human food, etc.)

“Vicki was absolutely amazing with our diabetic cat, and we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Giving insulin and caring for a diabetic pet requires experience, patience, and attention to detail, and Vicki handled everything with confidence and compassion. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our cat’s well-being and treated him like one of her own. Knowing our cat was in such capable, loving hands allowed us to truly relax on our trip. We highly recommend Vicki to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and caring pet sitter, especially if your pet has special medical needs. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Brianne, and I’m one of those people who gets genuinely excited every time I meet a new animal. 🐾 I love pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior snugglers and independent cats to the ones who insist on being your personal shadow. As a longtime pet owner myself, I know that every animal comes with their own personality, routine, and little quirks. My golden retriever, Walter, has given me plenty of experience with the adventures that come with dog ownership, and I also have a very needy cat who has made sure I’m equally well-trained in the feline department. 😂 I’m certified in Cat & Dog First Aid through the American Red Cross, so safety is always a priority. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, routines, medications and care instructions, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pets. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like I’d want someone to treat mine, with lots of patience, attention, affection, and probably way too many pictures. I can’t wait to meet your little (or not-so-little) cuties! 🐶🐱❤️ I currently work full-time from home (7a-4p), but I have flexibility for walks and visits throughout the day. I love to get outside whenever I can! I have a fenced in yard, where my puppy loves to run and play. My house is already puppy-proof, and ready for more fur friends!

Caitlin always does such a wonderful job with our cats. She’s been looking after them for over a year now whenever we’re out of town. Even our most neurotic and picky cat is fond of her. When we come home exhausted from our trips, the cats are always happy, healthy, and it’s clear they’ve been well taken care of. Caitlin is always communicative and responsive, as well.

Megan was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond in caring for our cats and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making sure everything was perfect. It's obvious she genuinely loves animals, and they loved her right back. We came home to happy cats and a well-cared-for home, which means the world to us.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Saint Charles on Rover is $25 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $31 per visit. 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 of October 2026, there are 5,756 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Saint Charles. 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 .

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
