“Jana did drop-in visits with our three cats while we were away. She took great care of them! She communicated well with me when needed and I felt at ease knowing she was dropping in daily. I definitely recommend Jana!! Thanks!”

“Working with Eloisa was a dream! She did everything I asked and then some. My cats had no difficulty warming up to her and the photos she sent were heartwarming. I would have absolutely no difficulty using her again!”

“Jessica went above and beyond in caring for my 3 cats while I was gone. She spent extra time making sure my house was clean and made an extra trip back to check on my cats. She always responds quickly when I contact her and was always right on time for check ins. I would highly recommend her and hope I can use her again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was at least 10 years old. I have pet sat, walked, fed, bathed, and helped provide basic training for friends, family, and neighbors who relied on me to care and love for their pets. Animals have always been a big part of my life! They love unconditionally and deserve to be spoiled with walks, play, love and treats!! My own pets and experiences with other animals has brought me so much joy that I want to give back to those animals that live in my community! I work as a teacher Monday-Friday so during the week I’m only available in the evening. Weekends are much more open! However, once summer hits I will be available during the day, evening, and weekends! I have had experience with dogs and cats as pets! When I had dogs I would provide daily walks, feedings twice a day, water, and of course daily plays. On top of that, grooming was a top priority to keep them clean and brushed so their coat and skin is well cared for. I currently have two cats! They are fed twice a day and their liter boxes are emptied every day as well. They are brushed regularly. They are inside kitties and play with the toys provided to them and take lots of cat naps between sun bathing in the sunlight! ☺️

About: I've either owned or taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I love furry friends and I'd love to help you. I'm currently working a position remotely with some minor travel. Checking on your pet, playing with your pet, or walking. Your pet is easy to fit in my schedule. I have a shaded backyard and garden that animals love. They sit on the porch and sleep all day. My house is heated and cooled based on the time of year.
About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets, I bring a deep personal commitment to every pet I care for. When I come to care for, play with, and walk your dogs I'll dedicate my time to really getting to know them and their preferences. I have shared my home with several senior pets over the years and understand the specialized attention they require. Elderly animals hold a special place in my heart, and I am especially attuned to their comfort, routines, and medical needs. I have three pets - a spunky, energetic Chihuahua and two senior cats. Your pets will be cared for with the same thoughtfulness, reliability, and respect I give my own. I’m a professional photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to be reliable and present when pet families need support. Running my own business has taught me the importance of communication, trust, and attention to detail. I’m also a parent to a teenager, so responsibility and consistency are a big part my everyday life. I value routine, patience, and creating a calm, steady environment, which is something pets truly benefit from. In my free time, you’ll often find me outdoors exploring nature with my camera, taking walks, or simply enjoying fresh air. I appreciate the simple joy animals bring to our lives and feel honored to care for them with the same thoughtfulness and respect I give my own. I know it can be hard on animals when their humans are away. Transitions can feel big for them. I move slowly, pay attention, and let trust build naturally so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re gone. My animals are the world to me. I love the everyday rhythms — the walks, the play, the brushing, the quiet moments on the couch. I lead with love and consistency, and I bring that same energy into your home. When I care for your pets, they’ll have plenty of playtime, walks tailored to their needs, and as much cuddle time as they’d like (or space, if that’s more their style). You can trust that I will respect your home, honor your routines, and care for your animals with the same attentiveness and affection I give my own.

About: Since I was born I have been involved with animals. We’ve had birds, dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and wildlife. I’ve taken care of some of the coolest animals and it’s a huge passion of mine! I’m currently working as a vet tech at a non profit vet clinic/animal rescue so working with animals is a huge passion of mine. I’m starting school in the fall to get my prerequisites done and then hopefully onto vet school! I love my pets so I will love yours just as much and treat them as my own. I’ve been around animals since I was born and am always trying to rescue/help some kind of animal!
About: I have worked previously in veterinary clinics as an assistant and as a pet-sitter for family members. I have a lot of knowledge about the behaviors and temperment of animals as well as a love and compassion for them! I am a college student with a lot of free time between classes and in the evenings to care for your pets. I also have a very open schedule on the weekends. I take clients' requests very seriously when it comes to how they wish for their animals to be taken care of in their home while in my care. It is a priority that they stay happy and comfortable!
About: In high school, I volunteered at my local humane society as a cat socializer and a dog walker. I am trained to walk dogs that may be a little more difficult to handle than others and I am great at socializing any breed of animal. I’m currently working full time, but I am available on weekends! Check my availability to see what best suits you and your furry friend's schedule! I care for my clients pets in their homes depending on the client and their pets needs. I pride myself on keeping a clean and sanitary environment and making sure your furry friend is safe and comfortable at all times.

About: I am a (disabled) veteran trying to find side money while I try and go to college! ( I can still walk and run). I have always loved animals and have had them as a part of my life since I was a baby. I am a disabled veteran, who is not actively working right now. I am looking for a side job to make some money while I try to go to college! I have two very active labs who like to go out very often and I live right down the street from a park. We always go out and play there. I really enjoy playing with animals. I like seeing them workout problems and learn. I love playing outside as well I cannot take care of cats at my place as my dogs aren’t very fond of them, ( so I can’t take cats into my home but can come to yours) but I love cats and would treat yours as if they were my own.
About: I’m an active adventurous person ready to play with the dogs or take them on walks. I have helped family, friends and neighbors watch their dogs, whether it be just a check in or a week at a time! I work as a phlebotomist in my other times, help family and create crafts for my page! Seeing as I have a cat of my own, I make sure to put her into my daily schedule and make time for her to play with her and her as well as make sure her litter stays clean and her food and water bowl stay full! My cat is an indoor cat. Although she is aloof, she still loves to come cuddle and I always make sure that her food and water bowls are full, her litter is clean and her medicine is taken
About: Hi! I’m a full-time registered nurse looking to pick up some side gigs doing what I already love—caring for animals. I have a strong medical background and bring a calm, attentive, and responsible approach to pet care, including pets with medical needs or special instructions. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve personally cared for cats and dogs for over 5+ years and feel comfortable with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. Whether it’s walks or drop-ins, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well taken care of while you’re away. I work as a Registered Nurse and find that working with animals helps recharge my compassion and social battery before my next shift. I work 3-4 days a week and like having the flexibility to pick up jobs through Rover when I am available. Each of my cats have their own special needs. I am comfortable giving medications to your pets if needed as well as brushing, bathing, going on walks, and of course giving lots of love and affection. I use a pet sitter myself when I am out of town and know how important it is to pawrents that their babies are safe. No matter the pet, big or small, I'm happy that you would trust me to care for them while you're away!
About: I’ve been around animals all of my life and have learned a lot about caring for animals and how to interact with them in turn I just have a way with animals and tend to get along with most animals I usually work four days per week so am open Fridays Saturdays and Sundays but can set aside some time in the afternoon during the rest of the week I give my pets plenty of space and toys and not to sound to corny but love and affection, I will be very attentive to your animals needs and will be willing to accommodate most things within reason
“Wonderful!! Kayla and Taylor LOVE animals. They were so amazing. Excellent communication and attention to detail. Great pics sent at every check in. Do not hesitate to book them. Will definitely use them again.”
About: I always insure that pets are comfortable! I’ve taken care of old cats and dogs, and I when they are old like that it’s important to meet their needs first, as most of the time they need a lot of guidance and help. I am currently going into online college, so most of my day is free! I often sit down and watch TV or play video games, but I mostly enjoy writing and drawing in my free time I personally like to ask owners how there pets are in the company of others, as well as if any weather bugs them! The comfort of my pets, and owners is always my number 1 priority! I want to make sure that they are comfortable around me, and I never approach any animal until I’ve let them sniff me, it’s important that they trust me to be around them.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Joseph
Audrey was wonderful with our senior dog, Gabby, and our cat, Piper! Leaving your pets behind is never easy, but she gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared for them like they were her own. We especially appreciated her patience and attentiveness with Gabby being an older dog. Knowing Audrey is CPR certified was an added bonus and made us feel even more confident that our pets were in great hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and would absolutely book with Audrey again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!

We just returned home after our third visit within 13 months with Eloisa and once again everything was perfect. We were away for an extended trip and never had a single concern about our home or, most importantly, our fur babies. It made our vacation so much more relaxing knowing Eloisa was caring for our babies. Even during an extended time away, we felt completely at ease knowing everything was in great hands. We came home to happy babies. Couldn’t ask for better. Absolutely recommend!

Very helpful and knowledgeable. She took care of our kitties for three days while we were gone. You could tell that they were very comfortable with her and that she enjoys going what she is asked to do. My wife left a detailed list with pictures and everything on how to take care our babies and it was followed to a T. Thank you for everything.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Saint Joseph on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of June 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 .
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
