About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was 8. My passion for dogs will never stop growing. I have worked with dogs for 4 plus years now, from boarding, grooming and all around care. I treat and love every dog like my own. Use this link to get $20 off on your first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/sabris67056 I’m currently in online school pursing my bachelors, so I have extra time on my hands. I will be in school for the next year. So why not do what I love, right? I have a very friendly dog who is very gentle with all dogs. If your pup stays with me they can be separated with no issue if you prefer. Or have a bestfriend to play with. I have my vet assistant certification to know if there are any abnormal issues or concerns with your pups. I also have 4 plus years of working in a dog boarding kennel so I worked with many breeds including large dog breeds.

“So happy we found Alexis through Rover! She took great care of our kitten while we were on vacation. Every day we'd get a notification when she checked in/out, followed by pictures. It's such a relief to know your pet is in good hands while you're away, and that's exactly how we felt with Alexis. I would absolutely recommend her, and we'll definitely be using her again next time we go away!”

About: 🎉 Use Promo Code: FAMDRD77423 for $40 OFF your first Rover booking! 🎉 (Valid for first-time Rover users only.) As a physician, I've dedicated my career to caring for others, and I bring that same compassion, patience, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. My medical background has taught me to stay calm under pressure, notice subtle changes, and provide thoughtful, attentive care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or has special needs, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I've been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, starting by helping neighbors with their pets during vacations and busy schedules. Over the years, I've gained experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. From playful puppies to gentle seniors, I tailor my care to each pet's unique needs. I also have experience training dogs using positive reinforcement, consistency, and patience. My goal is always to provide a fun, safe, and enriching experience while reinforcing good behaviors. Experience & Qualifications 👨‍⚕️ Physician with a calm, observant, and compassionate approach 🐾 Over 15 years of hands-on dog care experience 🎓 Experience with positive reinforcement training and basic obedience 🐶 Comfortable with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs Specialized Care 💊 Experienced with administering medications and following detailed care instructions 🦴 Comfortable caring for senior and special needs pets 💛 Patient with anxious, shy, or first-time boarding and sitting pets 🏡 Able to maintain your pet's normal routine to reduce stress Flexible Boarding Options 🌳 I offer flexible boarding options in my house or apartment, allowing me to match your pet with the environment where they’ll feel most comfortable. 🛋️ Quieter pets may enjoy a cozy apartment, while more energetic dogs can benefit from extra space to play and relax. 🎯 My goal is to provide the best experience based on your pet’s unique personality and needs. What You Can Expect ❤️ Every pet is treated like a member of my own family 🚶 Walks & playtime based on your dog's personality & energy level 📸 Frequent photo and video updates throughout every visit 📱 Prompt communication and dependable, detail-oriented care 🐾 A safe, loving & low stress environment where your pet can feel comfortable & happy I also have a trusted team of experienced caregivers who may occasionally assist with your pet’s care, providing extra flexibility and reliability. They may help with training, playtime, grooming, enrichment, or whatever else you may request while following the same commitment to safety, communication, and treating your pet like family. My Reliability Promise ✅ Your booking is my commitment. If an unexpected emergency or scheduling conflict prevents me from caring for your pet, I’ll help arrange a trusted replacement sitter so you’re never left scrambling at the last minute. 🐾 Your pet will continue receiving safe, reliable care from someone dependable. 💛 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and your peace of mind are always my top priorities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll provide the same level of care, kindness, and attention that I would want for my own dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m an early riser and make time every day for walks, play, and check-ins. My work schedule is flexible, allowing me to plan visits around each pet’s needs—whether it’s morning exercise, midday drop-ins, or evening companionship. Caring for animals is a relaxing and rewarding part of my week. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow your instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and keep pets safe with close supervision indoors and secure leashes outdoors. I focus on helping pets feel comfortable and calm, especially when their families are away, so they always feel cared for and at ease.

About: I have experience with many different dog breeds with different energy and health needs. I give all of the animals under my care the same treatment. I would take care of a super senior cat with the same dedication I would a golden retriever puppy. I'm not squeamish at all either, I'm comfortable dealing with body fluids and administering injection and medications. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters so i've seen it all! Currently, my only commitments are helping to babysit younger family members, which is flexible schedule and only part-time. I have lots of time to not only take care of your animals, but also play with them and give them good entertainment My own dog is a runner, so I am hypervigilant about making sure animals don't dart out doors. I always make sure I physically see the animal and watch them to make sure they look healthy and happy, I don't just leave food and water and go home. I'm more than happy to give daily updates on animals i'm watching there are owners out of town and take pictures

About: I’m a total cat person with four of my own, so my day-to-day is all about feline care. I'm well-versed in the practical side of things, like sticking to strict feeding routines and giving oral or topical meds, but I also love getting to know different personalities. I have a real soft spot for shy or anxious cats and take a go-at-their-own-pace approach to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’m currently working a hybrid schedule and have time during my days at home to come care for your pets, and can also do early mornings and evenings. When I'm sitting for your cats, I focus on sticking to their normal routine so they feel completely safe. I know cats can act a little differently when their humans are away, whether that means eating a bit less, hiding, or changing up their habits, so I keep a close eye on their behavior without pushing them. I take my cues from your cat, whether they want non-stop playtime, cuddles, or just a quiet presence while they settle in. I'm also fully comfortable with oral or topical meds, precise feedings, and litter upkeep, and you'll get daily updates and photos after every visit so you always know how they're doing.

My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication times. Consistency is key, so I make sure my visits are always on time and unrushed—your pet gets my full attention every time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and their animals with the same respect and care as I would my own. I follow the pet’s regular routines—feeding, walking, playtime, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure fresh water is always available, litter boxes are cleaned, and living areas are tidy. If medications are needed, I administer them exactly as directed. I also spend quality time giving affection and companionship, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Before leaving, I ensure the home is secure, lights and doors are as you prefer, and you receive an update with photos so you know everything is safe and well.

About: I grew up in Oklahoma on 90 acres with cows, horses, cats, and dogs. I've always had a passion for animals and the outdoors. One of the unique experiences I offer is adventure outings for your pup. Living near the beach allows me to provide refreshing beach walks, and as an avid hiker, I also enjoy taking dogs on scenic trail adventures where they can safely explore and enjoy nature. I currently have two dogs of my own—a Miniature Dachshund and a German Shepherd mix we rescued. If your dog would benefit from a positive, supervised social outing, I’m happy to provide that as well. Growing up, I regularly cared for and walked neighbors’ and family members’ pets, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. My goal is to give you peace of mind while your pet has a fun, enriching experience. You can rest assured that your furry family members will be cared for and loved as if they were my own. As a full-time dog dad to my two pups, I maintain a flexible schedule and am readily available to help ensure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. Whether it’s a quick neighborhood walk for exercise or an extended stay with a pet who needs a little extra companionship, I’m here to provide dependable, attentive care. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and fully cared for. I am committed to providing a high level of personalized care and attention to every client. I ensure that when you book a walk or service with me, your pets receive my full, undivided focus. This dedicated one-on-one time allows me to tailor each visit to your pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. I also have a spacious SUV available for safe transportation if needed. For dogs who enjoy a little extra adventure, I offer nature hikes as an additional service, giving them the opportunity to explore and exercise in a safe, supervised environment. Feel free to send me a message with what you’re looking for, and I’ll respond as soon as possible. I look forward to connecting with you and your pets!

Bridget was very sweet and patient for my 3 kitties, especially the one who goes on food protest when I’m away and likes to isolate himself. Much appreciated for the help :)

I’ve never had a cat sitter before so I was a bit nervous about how my cats would react, but Jennifer did an amazing job, always gave updates when needed and provided pictures of my cats while I was away. Would definitely book again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Scotchtown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Scotchtown is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $33 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.

As of November 2026, there are 186 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Scotchtown. 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 Scotchtown. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.
