“Alyssa has been an amazing pet sitter for our high-energy dog. She has been great with our unpredictable schedule and has been an awesome communicator. We are very grateful we could find her on Rover!”
“First time having Nick care for our fur babies! Nick is a great young man who clearly loves animals. He was punctual for our meet and greet as well as drop in visit to care for our pups! Would highly recommend and will definitely be calling on him for future needs!”
“Alex is so great! He plays with the kitties and send pics and they seem well taken care of and so does the house! I feel so much better knowing Alex is there for the little monsters!”
“Chynna was great with our cat (who immediately liked her). She was also very flexible with regard to the meet n greet and key handoff. Definitely recommend!”
“Emma was awesome! Super responsive and never made me wonder about our pets; she gave me updates both during and after the check-in. I would definitely trust her again with our boys!”
“Jazmine did an amazing job watching our 11 year old chocolate lab. She was always right on time, gave great updates, and (at our request) spent extra time with him at her discretion. She was such a reliable and inviting person, and it made our vacation so much more enjoyable knowing our lab was taken care of! We will definitely be using Jazmine from here on out!”
“Danielle did an excellent job with Otis, kept me updated with pics and videos from her visits. He's not always the quickest to warm up but seemed to take to her on her first visit! Came home to a happy, healthy boy. Would definitely book her to look after him again!”
“Amazing communication and so sweet with my pup. She sent the cutest photos and I plan on continuing to use Maggie for all services!! 10/10 would recommend”
“Amazingly kind and always reliable. We will definitely be rebooking for our future pet sitting needs. Can’t thank her enough for the peace of mind she gives with each visit.”
“Holland saved the day for us with a very last minute request to feed our babies. She did exactly what was asked and sent a pic too! I will definitely have her back!”
“Victoria did such a wonderful job with my puppy! There was a throw up accident in his crate and she maintained amazing communication and cleaned everything up so well ensuring my house was left in wonderful condition! She sent wonderful pictures and my puppy had so much fun during the visit! I recommend her to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter! :)”
“Taylor did an amazing job taking care of my cat and dog. Both pets got played with, taken care of, etc. Taylor also took my last minute request (which was awesome). If I need to leave town again I'm planning ahead so Taylor is available!”
“So grateful for Catherine! She was so accommodating for our last minute request. Gave us tons of options as to what could work best given the inclement weather. She made sure our baby was loved and followed her routine as usual. Would definitely recommend her and will be booking again for any future needs!!!”

Jazmine was phenomenal! She took great care of my kitties and home while I was away and sent me plenty of pictures as well! :) My home was just the way I left it (if not cleaner) and my cats seem happy! She was extremely helpful/responsive and I look forward to booking with Jazmine again in the future! :)

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Sandston on Rover is $18.19 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 with handling special pet needs in Sandston. On Rover:

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 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.
