“We are so happy we were able to book Kylee last minute for our 4 months old kitten! She showed up promptly at each scheduled drop-in and took care of everything Pixel needed while we were away. Litterbox cleaning, feeding, so much play time and cuddle sessions plus plenty of treats to keep Pixel quite happy! We also got a ton of photo updates with each visit which helped ease some of my worry about leaving our kitten home for the first time but she made sure to communicate consistently and we had nothing to worry about. We will definitely book Kylee again int the future!”

“Recently moved to area and found Marlene on Rover. Just a wonderful experience. Have a diabetic cat and hyperthyroid cat who both require medicine twice daily. Marlene was able to administer all the doses while we were gone. Logged daily journals and sent great photos. Will definitely be requesting Marlene on Rover in the future. Thank you so much!”

“Linzey was so good with my three boys my cats Especially my one that has cardiomyopathy he takes medicine for He ended up getting real sick, while I was away on a cruise Linzey did everything she could to get him to an emergency hospital because he was in critical condition Even though I didn’t have great service she did everything she could to inform me and she let me know at the hospital what was going on If it wasn’t for her he wouldn’t have made it. She was great with my other two cats as well. I will definitely be using her again”

She does a perfect job showing up on time to his walks and does great communicating with me. Even recently, she protected my dog from an unleashed pitbull attack so I don’t think it gets any better than that. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Rebeca recently stayed with our cat, Marley, and was absolutely fantastic. Rebeca is truly a kind and loving soul. She spoiled Marley rotten, giving her an abundance of love and attention, which we really appreciated. It was clear that Marley was not just well-cared for, but also genuinely enjoyed Rebeca's company. Beyond her warm personality, Rebeca was incredibly communicative and conscientious, keeping us updated and putting our minds at ease. We would highly recommend Rebeca to anyone looking for a top-notch cat sitter. She's a gem!”

About: Hi, I'm Mike! I'm 26 years old, a Florida native, and a lifelong animal enthusiast! I grew up on a farm outside of St. Augustine, FL, where my family raised all kinds of animals. Naturally, some of my closest companions were our dogs and cats! Between growing up with approximately 30 family cats, raising litters of kittens, and showering our senior cats with affection during their golden years, I've had a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals at every stage of life. I've also lived with dogs of all shapes and sizes, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls! My experience includes caring for litters of puppies, energetic adult dogs, and senior dogs who needed a little extra help navigating furniture, doorways, and everyday activities. I've yet to meet a dog that I couldn't win over with enough treats, walks, and belly rubs! One thing I take particular pride in is my ability to read animal body language and recognize when a pet needs attention, reassurance, or simply a little space. I believe every animal has its own personality, boundaries, and comfort level, so I always approach new friendships with patience and let the animal set the pace. While I absolutely love spoiling animals with affection, I also understand the importance of consistency, structure, and respecting the rules and routines you've established in your home. I'm confident handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I believe in providing a balance of affection, positive reinforcement, and dependable care. I'm comfortable caring for animals with a variety of needs, including administering oral medications such as pills and medications mixed into wet food. I've also had exposure to injectable medications and have observed them being administered, although I do not have hands-on experience giving injections. I understand the importance of following owner instructions, maintaining consistent care routines, and making sure every animal receives the attention and care they need. Above all, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they're in good hands! I currently am attending college 4 mornings a week at St. Petersburg College. I also work in the Grand Central District 5 days a week. When housesitting, I will make sure to spend my free time at the house and go to my own house once or twice a day to take care of my own cats. When walking a dog or just stopping in, I will do so on my way to and/or from class and work, depending on the schedule of the owner/animal. I prefer a written schedule that I can refer back to so that I know what the animals are asking for at what times. I try to take a dog out every 4-6 hours, whether it’s just in the yard or on a walk. When I work, I make sure the dog is taken out/walked right before I leave and as soon as I get back after work. If the owner has poop bags or a shovel, I am happy to clean the backyard before the owners return home.

About: I have been caring for pets for 7 years and have cared for pets ranging from as small as 10 lbs. to as large as 100+ lbs. I have pet sat for people ranging from two days to 2 weeks! In NC I had a pet sitting business and also worked for two different pet boarding facilities. I am a pet mom to two kitties Rowena (4 years) and Nimbus (4 months). I currently work from home and would love the opportunity to get out during the day and stretch my legs with an adorable pup or play time and catnip with your kitty! My schedule is very open and can be discussed with clients! I would love the opportunity to work with you and your pet! Currently a work from home employee so my schedule is pretty open, plus I can work from anywhere! Looking for the opportunity to get out of the house while providing pet care when you can’t be there! When in the clients home I ensure the pet is well taken care of (fed, watered, and has had ample play time). I believe that pet care in one’s home alleviates pet parents biggest concern, leaving their pet in a strange environment where they’ll be stressed out.

About: I realize the need for pet care now that I am an adult with a little dog 🐶, and now cat 🐱, of my own! I would love to help you take care of your furry loved one! *My rates are lower only because I’m not out here to break the bank. It does not mean I have any less care or experience. 🫶🏻 **Also, I have a green thumb, so if you’re going to be away from home and have plants - I can help keep them alive!🪴 I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I am able to provide flexible hourly accommodations, if that’s what you are needing. I am happy to help! I love going for walks - but adding some animals makes it even better! It can be scary to trust your pet to a stranger. Your furry little one is family, but I will treat them like my own. I’m able to provide an array of requests and accommodations - don’t hesitate to ask.

This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't be happier. Alyssa was super prompt during the booking and greeting process and as soon as we met her we knew we made the right choice. Our cat McKenzie was very well cared for, and with each passing day and photo updates, we could see him change and become more and more comfortable. Final day, flat on back, paws up, just totally relaxed. Thank you, Alyssa for a wonderful experience for all of us.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Saint Pete Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Saint Pete Beach is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per visit. On Rover, 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 880 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Saint Pete Beach. 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 Pete Beach. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
