“Morgan did a great job taking care of our outdoor neighborhood cats. She even managed to get pictures of them nearly every day. I can tell Morgan loves animals and genuinely cared about taking care of Vader and our sometimes porch cat Alexander.”
“Jenna was so patient with our kitties. They can both be shy and she did great making them comfortable around her. Jenna goes above & beyond by cleaning up after our messy girls. Truly appreciate Jenna and will be booking again soon!”
“I’m so glad I found Katy on Rover! She checked in on my kitty for me while I was out of town for over a week. Katy sent me daily reports and multiple pictures with each report. It was comforting to know that my baby was well cared for while I was gone. I would highly recommend Katy to provide outstanding care for your pet!!”
“Becca was absolutely phenomenal! She always arrived early and stayed past the time she needed to. She went above and beyond and cleaned the spaces for our 4 foster cats. I would highly recommend Becca to care for all your animals!”
About: I have always had multiple cats and dogs growing up, I have experience since 8 years old, bottle feeding, fostering, and caring for senior pets. I currently have 10 rescue animals of my own: 2 dogs, 5 cats, 2 bunnies, and 1 large turtle who lives in an in-ground pond I built in our backyard. I truly love helping care for animals and will treat your babies just like my own! I have a super flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! Long walks, fetch out back, or a cuddle inside—I’ll make sure they’re well cared for and comfortable before I leave. I am always extremely cautious entering and exiting homes, so no worries about escape artists! I never bother an animal who doesn’t want affection and will be as patient as necessary to build a bond. I do my best to match the energy of your pet to keep them as comfortable as possible.
“Caitlin is amazing! She responds super fast, and I hired her for a couple of nights to stay with my nervous kitty. She was able to bond with him which is tough to do, and sent me pictures and updates while I was away. I highly recommend Caitlin for house/pet sitting!”
About: My husband Ryan and I have an extremely well-behaved blue healer mix, Jolene, who is seeking some new friends! We do have cats, but we have two floors and can separate the cats and our dogs quite easily. We live right next to a long trail, and we will wake up early or stay up late to walk our pups in good weather. We also have a garage we cool with fans and the door open to allow our pups to play for a bit with plenty of water! Otherwise, they are allowed on furniture and treated like family. We have all the love to give! We absolutely lovd caring for pets! We make our home ready for your pet, ensuring our week is centered around joy, love, and affection. Jolene is a fantastic play with other dogs. She matches their pace and gives them space. She's incredibly well-behaved and submissive in play. In our home, we live to ensure our animals live a healthy, happy, and inclusive environment. We allow pets in bed, on the furniture, and follow all instructions provided by their owner. We understand that every owner has their own preferences, & we will take your guidance in feeding, vitamins, special needs, bathroom breaks, etc. When we have animals stay with us, it becomes a full-time job for us so our furry friends can't wait to come back again!
“Kristina is my go-to pet sitter and she never disappoints. She is not only good with animals but a wonderful individual. Very sweet and high energy, she's a joy to work with and I don't trust my kitten with anyone else now. She was on time and stayed even later when we needed it.”
About: I have been caring for my own animals since I was young, with one of my first memories being watching my cat give birth in my closet. I have spent over six years as a veterinary technician, which has prepped me with plenty of medical knowledge to care for all different types of pets, so feel free to reach out if your pet has any special medical needs. I'm always excited to meet new fur babies, whether they are young eager puppies or old peaceful cats. At my animal filled home, I care for an energetic golden doodle, a small calm pug mix, a Siamese and black cat, and even four ducks that fill my days with laughter. As an exotic vet tech, I am also comfortable caring for your snakes, lizards, tortoises or any other critter in your family. Let me know how I can help make your time away from your home easier for you! I am available to do drop in visits for your pets in the early morning and late evening Tuesday through Saturday and anytime on the weekend. I am happy to stay at your home full-time while you are gone, just be aware I will be leaving for work between 8am-5p Tuesday-Saturday. I will make sure to respect your home and always lock doors behind me when visiting both for the safety of your pets and home. Feel free to let me know your pet's personality and what activities make them feel safe and comfortable. I have house sat for many people in the past and have had happy reviews from them and assure they felt their fur babies and home were in good hands.
About: Hello! New here!!! I belong to the local pet shelter and I do the dog a day program where I go and pick them up and spend the whole day with them kind of help get them adopted if needed and return them at the time stated. On that note! I am looking for work and I love animals so I thought how perfect! The small family I have here and I have 20 dogs and cats combined. Very careful loving person looking to help out when needed. I love to walk so even better! Very responsible and follow instructions as asked. I will treat your fur baby just as I would like mine treated. Short notice is usually okay as well. I do this for friends as well when needed. Thank you for looking and good luck!! Again Thank you. I am currently not employed during the day and I only work a few evenings a week, but that changes every week so depending on what you need, I will work it out! I would come to your place to pet sit, walk, pop in or whatever you needed. I am open to anything you need. All pets!
“Laura was great! She patiently followed all our instructions and was extremely responsive. We will definitely use her services again when we go out of town. I felt like my cats were in good hands.”
About: Hello from your pets new bestie! Here to offer Drop in visits, play time, walks, and cuddles. Your pup will look forward to my visits ! I am a lifelong dog lover and 27 year certified Canine 4 Companions puppy trainer with over 40 successfully raised puppy "graduates" who are now currently helping their human companions to cope with blindness, seizures, and emotional trauma all over the US. This along with 11 years as a pet sitter has given me valuable experience working with dogs of all sizes, shapes, and personalities. As a dog mama myself ( of Coops the 14 year old Beagle and a 7 pound poodle mix named Toby). I know how hard it is to leave your babies for a long vacation or even just a long with day. This is why as a sitter I make it my mission to give owners peace of mind of knowing their baby is safe, happy, and healthy through 24/7 communication availability, photo updates (we even Facetime!) as requested, and consistent reliability and professionalism. It's much easier to leave for a trip or day at work knowing your dog is home with someone who treats them with the same love, respect, and care as her own fur babies. If we get the chance to work together, I promise to treat your home and pup with the same respect and cuddles I give my own and am happy to send as many photos and updates as you need :) I currently work part-time, and am able to make my own schedule. This allows me to prioritize your pets needs and routine while you are away. I plan to follow all instructions while visiting a client's home, and if preferred, I am happy to provide updates in photos as often as needed so that you feel comfortable.
About: Growing up in Mississippi really familiarized me with animals. I took care of animals as big as giant dogs to animals as fragile as a cat my entire life. I’ve also dog-sat for many people from my community during my high school years, before moving to Florida for college. I’ve job shadowed at the vet clinic as well throughout the years so I know a little when it comes to their health as well. I’m also very familiar with administering medications, as I had to do it multiple times for my family’s dogs. I just want to show your dog love and support! I’m a student full time at UCF, but i’m online for this semester because of the need to travel home occasionally! So, i’m available the entire week for any service, minus the weekend (which would only be dog walking or cat sitting). I really have a flexible schedule! When it comes to my own home, I want not only the client to trust me with their pet but I want the pet to feel comfortable as well. I have no pets with me and the environment is kept very clean and organized. As for my clients home, I would say it’s relatively the same. I would do as they asked and maintain a clean and safe environment. Anything to make them feel comfortable with trusting me with their fur baby!
About: I’ve lived with many different animals all my life. I’ve had horses, dogs, cats, hermit crabs. I have always been a major animal lover and will always at some point in my life have an animal of some sort! I’m currently a first time mom and I’m working with my mom part time through the week so she can watch my baby while I get back out working again. I am usually willing to work any time usually in the mornings and afternoons. I usually when I first get to a clients home is take the dog out or empty the litter to get that out of the way. Then I’ll do a walk through incase of any messes, then do medications if needed along with giving food and filling up water. And last but not least have the most time for play time!!
“Sonul took great care of our kitties! She visited at the appropriate times to give our medically needy cat her meds and to give all our cats their breakfast and dinner. She even saw all the cats which is amazing because three out of four hide when new people come in the house. Her Majesty the Queen even let Sonal pet her!”

Joy is an absolute JOY to work with. Her attention to detail is fantastic and you can tell she truly cares about animals. She took amazing care of my 2 kitty girls while my family was on vacation 🩷 I’m so grateful for her and the care she gave my babies while I was away. I look forward to working with Joy again in the near future!!
I cannot say enough about how wonderful Catherine is - my cat Max loves her, and she is simply amazing with him. She always gives him so much attention and affection when she is caring for him. I love getting the pictures, notes and updates each time she drops in to care for him. He was comfortable around her from day one ; I have had her look after my fur baby several times already and I will be rebooking with her again. Thank you, Catherine.
Ilene is the best! She meet with us ahead of time to introduce herself and meet our 4 babies before our vacation. She was so kind and communicated every step of the way. We felt so at ease while we were away! She took pictures and gave updates. Ilene is a true animal lover and we will definitely be rebooking with her! Thank you so much for Ilene for your care for our babies while we were away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Sanford is $14 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 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.

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.

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.
