“Haley was awesome! Very quick to reply and an excellent communicator. She accomodated my last-minute pup sitting request with an upbeat, helpful attitude. Would highly recommend and will definately be booking her again soon :)”
About: I have dropped in for large dog care. I have stayed in a house watching 3 small dogs. I personally had a lab growing up. I have taken care of a large dog and small dog and stayed at their home. I personally have a cat and I love all animals. I would be great as someone who can walk dogs early in the morning or in the evening and I have some availability throughout the day as well. I have a flexible schedule and work remote so I can work around my schedule. I want to make sure all the pets I care for are comfortable. Access to clean fresh water for all pets is a must. I love to play with dogs and cats whether that be toys or lasers. I love going on walks and making sure dogs have proper exercise. I would follow all instructions left for me diligently.
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, kittens, and puppies for most of my life. Ever since I was 3 years old, I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and developed a strong love and understanding for pet care. Over the past year, I’ve also gained experience caring for a senior dog, including providing patience, attention, and daily support for their specific needs. In addition, I enjoy working with puppies and have experience teaching basic training and new tricks. I treat every pet like family and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets and provide them with the attention they deserve. I am available on both weekends and weekdays, with the most flexibility in the mornings. I also have availability during some afternoons and evenings, allowing me to accommodate a variety of schedules and pet care needs. I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment, whether in my home or a client’s home. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets at all times to ensure their safety and well-being, and I make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention while in my care. I also keep spaces clean, secure, and pet-friendly so owners can feel confident that their pets are being cared for like family.
“Jamie came for a meet & greet. So pleasant and professional and you could tell she is definitely an animal lover. She engaged with Nutmeg aka Nutty right away. I booked for a home visit over two days. This is where Jamie proved her mettle, patience and perseverance! She called me to let me know Nutty was growling and wouldn't come near her. I was shocked at Nutty's behavior but had a few suggestions. Jamie persevered and soon got Nutty outside to play. The second day went off without a hitch. Thank you Jamie! You are awesome and I will be booking you again real soon! 🐕😊🐾”
“Lauren was beyond amazing with our dogs and with staying in contact while we were away. She spent the full time playing with the dogs and making sure they were fed and had water. Other people we’ve tried in the past would stop in for 15 minutes for a 30 minute rate. Would absolutely recommend Lauren, we hope to be lucky enough to get her again when the time comes! Thank you Lauren! Mark and Maggie”
“Emerson was great! She showed up on time, and followed instructions to a tea. And had zero problems with my 6 month old Malinois, and other large dog! Even in the pouring rain. Would recommend her for any of your pets needs :)”
“Amanda stepped in at the last minute to take care of our two cats, and she couldn't have done a better job. She sent plenty of pics, gave our boys lots of love, and left the house clean and tidy. We came home to two very happy cats - would book again!”
“Ashley is wonderful. She communicates, send tons of photos, and is extremely trustworthy. We would absolutely hire her again! Lucky to have found her in such short notice as well. Thank you Ashley 👏🏽”
About: I am a full-time working professional. For the past three years, I have fostered dogs with diverse personalities in my free time. I primarily have experience with Shiba Inu's; they can often have aloof and stubborn personalities. I also have an experience having a rescue cat since she was 5 months old. I am a full-time professional who works 8:00AM to 5:30PM. I will have availability after work and on the weekends; however, it could change based on other commitments. I have a cat who has free range of the home. However, any time there is another animal in my residence, they will be separated.
“Lee was amazing! On time every day and always gave a summary of each visit with photos of our two cats. Lee gave lots of attention to Sally and Charlotte and had no problem administering their medication. We will be booking with Lee again for our next vacation!”
“Cassie was patient and understanding with my dog that has anxiety and is nervous around new people! I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again soon!”
About: Been a dog lover and owner all my life and would love the opportunity to take care of your dog if our schedules are able to align. I'm a teacher, so my summers are generally pretty open. I work Monday and Wednesday nights from about 5-7pm, but am otherwise available, unless otherwise noted in my calendar. Available times may change. I am offering dog walking and drop-ins at the moment, but I will care for any dogs as if they were my own, and will be in contact with the owners on an as needed basis. I plan/hope to expand to dog sitting eventually.
About: I love animals and the energy they bring to a space. I have a cat now, have had several cats over the past 15 years and family cats and dogs growing up. I have either lived with roommates dogs or have friends or relatives with dogs that I consider family. I love interacting with all animals and have a respect and understanding for their needs and care. A walk in the backyard, down the street, time at the beach, going on a hike or just spending time inside, all seem like good options to me! I am respectful, honest, kind and compassionate. I am an Artist focusing in the Visual, Performing and Healing Arts. I will take good safe care of your pet as if they were part of my family. Looking forward to meeting you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Sanford on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 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 .

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.

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.
