Angela was a life saver for me and my cat! My flight back to town got canceled and I needed a same-day sitter on short notice. She responded fast, communicated during the visit, and gave Sweet Pea lots of care and attention. I would absolutely recommend her and book with her again!

Edward was such a great sitter for my kitties! Responded last minute to my last minute request heading out for the weekend unexpectedly with no issue. Was very diligent in following our complicated building and care instructions and dealing with our messy just moved-in apartment, sending amazing pictures of my babies, and super timely in his visits. My kitties very obviously took to him well in his videos and were very happy and much less stressed and anxious upon our return. Will be very happy to use him again

Brandon has been watching my golden retriever puppy once a week for the past month, and he’s been great! He is attentive, caring, and communicative, always providing updates and carefully following any instructions I leave. He’s also very accommodating if I ask for any changes. My puppy is always happy and well cared for when I get home. I highly recommend him!

Charlotte is our go-to sitter! She’s incredibly thoughtful, responsive, and great with our cats. She has gone above and beyond to make sure our cats were safe, comfortable, and in good care. We also appreciate her pictures and updates as we miss our kitties when we travel. Never had to worry when we are away with Charlotte watching!

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner who understands how important it is to know your pet is comfortable, safe, and well cared for when you are away. I have cared for my beloved cat, Alix, for approximately 11 years and have experience administering medications, brushing fur and teeth, cleaning litter boxes, clipping nails, feeding, giving plenty of attention and companionship, and monitoring health and behavior. I pride myself on being attentive, dependable, and patient. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to provide care that helps them feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. Whether it is a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, simply keeping your pet company, or walking, I will treat your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. As a healthcare professional, I am comfortable recognizing changes in behavior or wellbeing that may warrant attention, detail-oriented, and responsible. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind while ensuring their pets receive compassionate, reliable care. Pet care fits very naturally into my current routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits and walks throughout the week. Pet care is something I genuinely look forward to rather than simply treating as work. I am available on weekdays and many weekends, and I make it a priority to be attentive to each pet's individual needs, communicative, and punctual. Whether your pet needs companionship while you are away, feeding, playtime, a quick visit, or a walk, I am committed to providing consistent and reliable care. I currently offer drop-in visits in my clients' homes and walking. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine and provide a positive, safe experience while you are away. During visits, I can provide companionship, feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, walks, and any other routine care that your pet needs that is mutually agreed upon. I understand that trust is essential when someone is caring for your pet and entering your home. I am committed to clear communication, dependable, and respectful of clients' homes and property. I will follow your instructions carefully, make sure your pet is comfortable, safe, and well cared for, and provide updates as requested during every visit. As a healthcare professional, I am attentive to changes in behavior or wellbeing, detail-oriented, and responsible. I treat every pet with kindness, patience, and the same level of care I would want for my own furry family member.

Hazel did a really great job watching our cat and our dog. Our dog is reactive and has lots of energy and Hazel listened to our instructions and made sure he was safe and well taken cared of. She also made sure our house was cared for. I’ve had sitters in the past that just watched our pets and came home to a home that felt dirty and uncared for but it was nice to come home to a house that was clean and not a complete disaster from the pets. She sent photos and kept us updated on them both. Will definitely book her again when we go out of town

About: We have been watching dogs throughout college and grad school at our house by the shore for 7 years. We wanted to continue watching our furry friends in the city! My boyfriend’s family bred Golden Retrievers growing up, and we are both very responsible and communicative with our stays. We have a 4 month old kitten who LOVES animals of all sizes! My boyfriend and I are both teachers! We have the exact same schedule and are home every day at 3pm as well as off weekends and holidays! We take our dogs on walks at the local park! If your dog isn’t good with others, no problem! We have a very quiet street and a lot of places to make sure they get the exercise they need!

I specialize in training dogs and supporting high needs pets in continuing their routines as close to normal in your absence! I have some existing dog walking/training clients and would love to add more. Let's have some adventures and promote your pets' wellness!! Flexible scheduling available.

Alex was a great sitter for my cat! Juniper is pretty wary of strangers, and Alex was perfect at respecting her boundaries and space, all while caring for Juniper when I was away for a month. Alex provided thorough updates and always ensured all of my concerns were addressed!

We had to find a last min sitter for a recent trip and Rachel was the perfect choice. She quickly responded and offered to meet us the following day. She was knowledgeable, receptive and professional. Our pets took to her immediately! It was very sweet. She provided detailed updates which reassured our boys were in good hands. We rebooked her within the week and she was graciously flexible with her busy schedule to cover. She was overall superb, I highly recommend her services!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Schuylkill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Schuylkill on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 .

As of July 2026, there are 4,523 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Schuylkill. 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 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 Schuylkill. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
