“Jynna is incredible! She clearly cares for the pets she watches over and specifically went above and beyond to make sure my kittens were eating well while I was gone. She also sent photos of them playing every day and left everything looking great when I returned - thank you!”
“Emily was super easy going and we are very grateful for her help while we were gone! We 100% trust her with our pets and will use her going forward. So glad we found her!”
About: 🐾Hi fellow dog parents! I have experience working at Doggy Wonderland, where I cared for dogs, supervised playtime, monitored behavior, maintained clean spaces, and provided lots of love and attention! I’m also a proud dachshund mom to my own fur baby, so I know firsthand that pets are family. ❤️ I can’t wait to give your pups the same love and care I give my own! 🐾 Caring for my own dachshund is a big part of my everyday life! From daily training and feeding him twice a day to spending plenty of time outside playing and exploring, I make sure his needs are always met. But most importantly, I spend even more time giving him all the cuddles, affection, and love he could ever ask for! ❤️ I bring that same dedication, patience, and love to every pet I care for, I am available Monday - Friday and occasional weekends to help with your pets needs! In your home, I will abide by all of your instructions ensuring the safety of your fur baby, just as I do mine, if your pup is friendly with other animals I’d be happy to bring my own pup to hangout with he/she and keep them company! Biggest rule for me is making sure the your dog is happy and healthy while in my care and I provide that by feeding them when instructed, playing with them outside or inside whichever you prefer and making sure before I leave I give them the same goodbye speech I give my own dog haha🤍

“Chantel did a great job and I am so glad she took care of my dog while I was away. Communication from start to finish was really good. I highly recommend Chantel!! Thanks for everything!”
About: For over the past 3 years I’ve been pet sitting for family,coworkers,etc. I’ve worked with multiple kinds of dogs and can handle very different situations!! I have 3 fur babies of my own!! I have two kitty’s and one puppy. My cats are about 2 years old and my Dog is 6 months old. So everyday is a new challenge for me but nothing to difficult that I can overcome! My puppy stays in a crate for the night time portion so I know a lot of crate training. Also with cats using a litter box!
“We had Claire watch our cat for 3 days and she did a great job making him feel comfortable and even gave him his own room. She sent pictures and let us know how he was doing. We will definitely use Claire again if we need care for Midnight in the future.”

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Sanctuary
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 420 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sanctuary. 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 Sanctuary. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
