“Megan was great with Lennox during drop-ins while I was away from home for a full day. She let him out, sat with him inside and on the back deck, gave him treats and kept him well-fed and happy. Her definitely seemed to have had a joyful day and Megan was reliable, courteous and very responsive with communications before, during and after her visits. I plan to utilize her expertise again soon.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter, Brittany! She was kind, trustworthy, and took such great care of our dog, Macie. Our puppy absolutely loved her, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Mary did a great job checking in our cats while we were away! Our cats are very shy, and she took the time to find them and take a pic for us to make sure they were ok. By the end she had them coming out to see her during the visit. Would highly recommend!”
“Victoria is amazing! This was the 2nd time I had her pet sit my two cats and once again I was a le to leave them without worry! Thank you Victoria, you are the best!”
About: I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages from kittens and puppies to seniors. Including potty training, regular training, food aggression, dietary needs, medication administration, exercising, basic commands, diabetes injections, aggression/behavioral issues. I work real estate so I have a lot of down time in between work to stop in and check in, walk and play with your furbabies. I will follow any routines owners have to a T and don’t mind any special requests. My only goal is to make your furbaby happy and your mind at ease while you’re away.
About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats throughout my life, and both of our beloved pets lived long, happy lives before passing away from old age. While my family and I aren’t quite ready to welcome another pet into our home just yet, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. I also have a 9 year old daughter who absolutely loves animals and enjoys helping me give them extra love and attention when she’s with me. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I work five days a week and am available after 4:00 PM, with flexible availability for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting every single week. I respect your home and your pet’s routine. I’ll carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions while keeping your pet comfortable and stress free. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Kasey took care of our old blind beagle, for several days and was even to help in an emergency. She is so very sweet and so reassuring and confident in taking care of our pup. Thank you Kasey for all you do! ☺️”
“Freya was absolutely amazing. It was the first we left our Gino and we felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. We would recommend her 100 percent. She sent wonderful pictures to reassure us he was well taken care of. We are ready to book her again”
“Olivia was an amazing sitter. She took time to introduce herself to Sophie, our Jack Russell. All of the directions we had on our list were followed to a “T”. Sophie warmed up to Olivia and played, too. I would highly recommend Olivia -she is punctual and sent photos and updates with each drop in. All in all she did a great job.”
“With Joanne, our cats weren’t just “looked after,” but were cared for and played with. I got great pictures every day and my anxiety of being away from them was eased greatly! Thank you, Joanne!”
“Madison did great with my cat and dog. She was very professional and friendly, and they both took to her right away when she came over for a pre-trip meet. She was also punctual and polite and always uploaded pictures when she came by for the feed/walk. I will definitely be a repeat customer of hers.”
“We knew within minutes of meeting Alannah that she was going to be a good fit to watch our pups. She had genuine interactions and care for both of them. You can tell she’s an animal lover! She was very prompt with her check ins and always gave us detailed info about what was going on. We’ll absolutely book with her in the future!”
About: I’m new to Rover but have always loved animals! I’ve helped care for family pets by feeding them, taking them on walks, and giving them attention and love. Even though I don’t have professional experience yet, I’m super responsible, gentle, and quick to learn. I’m calm and patient, and I always pay close attention to your pet’s needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, treat your pet like my own, and keep you updated so you feel at ease. I work a part-time job, but I’m available on weekdays in the mornings and afternoons. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to spend time with your pet—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely and keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I respect your space, stay tidy, and give your pet my full attention while I’m there. Safety is always a priority—whether that means double-checking doors, using leashes properly, or making sure they’re never left unsupervised. I want both you and your pet to feel completely safe and cared for!
“Kendra was able come take care of my two cats after I had to schedule a very last-minute drop in. She was very communicative and did a wonderful job taking care of them. I’m super grateful to have been able to book her!”
“Imani is the purrfect cat sitter. We scheduled a meet and greet prior to our departure. She was able to meet Rocky (briefly before he hid) and Knuckles. Imani sent pictures daily so we could see they were ok. If you need a sitter and she is in your area she is great!”
About: Hi, I'm Aly! I am available for dog walking and drop-ins; I am also open to taking care of your cats.I have experience administering insulin as well since my cat has had diabetes. I have a large fenced in yard they could run around in. I have about 10 years of pet care experience (walking, feeding, potty breaks, etc). I will walk your pup as often as you like. Being a pet owner I understand what an important part of the family our dogs are, and would provide the best care possible. I have owned dogs my entire life, and will treat your fur baby like it is my own and we'll have the best time! I will always keep you updated with pictures & status updates :) I am very patient, responsible, and punctual.... I can't wait to meet you and your pup! Looking forward to hearing from you! My schedule is really open and flexible right now. I can make myself available anytime during 8AM - 5PM but I can be flexible if needed. As a remote worker and proud cat parent, I’m used to structuring my day around feeding schedules, playtime, and regular check-ins. Whether it’s giving morning meds, refreshing food and water, or simply providing some companionship, I enjoy making animals feel safe and loved. Caring for pets isn’t a chore—it’s a rewarding part of my everyday life. In both settings, I prioritize open communication with pet owners to understand each pet’s unique needs and preferences, ensuring a personalized and caring experience for every pet.

This was my first time ever hiring someone on Rover to feed and take care of my cat while we were away on vacation. Victoria followed instructions to the T. She was punctual and did a wonderful job caring for my cat. Thank you so much Victoria! I will use your services again on my next vacation!
Veronica always goes above and beyond by sending detailed updates and truly getting to know the personality of the cats. I feel at ease when she cares for my cats because she gives them lots of play time, love, and cuddles 🤗 She is really passionate about making animals comfortable while their family is away, and she sends lots of photos so you know that your fur babies are having a great time 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Scranton on Rover is $16.35 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 171 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Scranton. 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 Scranton. 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.
