“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!”
“Eileen communicated promptly when arranging for our pet to stay with her, and continued during the stay, as well as sending us several pictures. We weren't sure how our cat would react since we had never left her with anyone else before, but she seemed fine and content when we picked her up. I recommend Eileen and would certainly hire her again.”
“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.”
“Always a pleasure. Excellent communication, on-time, very responsive, takes the time to interact with our pets, and follows home and pet care notes as close as possible. I don't have to worry.”

About: I have been researching animals and animal care since I was able to read, I was always at the library as a kid! I worked as a dog trainer at PetSmart for two years (worked with the company for three years total!) and have met and worked with a variety of breeds. I volunteered at a dog shelter all throughout highschool as well. I have had many animals of my own and have even fostered orphaned kittens and puppies in the past! Working with animals gives me a purpose I cannot find anywhere else :) I work half remotely so I have plenty of open availability, let me know what works best with you! I'm always willing to make accommodations. When watching your pets at your home I would likely ask many questions regarding you/your pets routine so I can make things as comfortable for your pet as possible! I would never leave the pet unattended unless directed otherwise! I have experience handling large, strong breeds of dogs and have no doubt in my capabilities to keep your pet safe and comfortable.
“Freya was such a blessing and I would highly recommend her. It was a great relief to have my Nala stay at home while I was away on vacation especially after we just lost her sister. Freya went above and beyond to make sure she was taken care of and loved during this time. It was wonderful seeing all of the pictures and I was stress free knowing that my girl was taken care of. Above all, she is trustworthy and my Nala loved her! Will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”
“Alannah was a terrific cat sitter - attentive, communicative, and caring to our pets! I appreciated her accommodating a somewhat last minute request and I came home to some happy cats :)”
“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.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who truly believes that coming home to your pets is one of the best parts of the day. I’d love the opportunity to give your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and sizes. Growing up, I had a dog who was blind and experienced seizures, so I became comfortable providing extra care, following a routine, and administering medication when needed. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to Goose, a 4-year-old Great Pyrenees mix, and Stella, a black Lab puppy. They’ve given me plenty of experience with both energetic puppies and larger dogs! During visits and walks, I’m happy to tailor activities to your pet’s personality and needs. We can take a relaxing walk around the neighborhood, play fetch in the yard, get some extra exercise, or simply spend time together getting pets and attention. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. I do work full-time, but I make an effort to be flexible and available for the pets in my care. Depending on your needs, I can stop by before and/or after work, and I have additional availability on weekends. My goal is to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they need while you’re away. I know how much trust goes into leaving your pets with someone else, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own—with patience, love, and plenty of belly rubs! I’d be happy to meet you and your pets beforehand so we can make sure everyone is comfortable. I am currently working full time, but am looking to take care of pups any time I am free! Available before and after work, and on the weekends I have a fenced in yard and 2 dog friendly dogs. Also a dog friendly cat. They always have access to food and water and will be well loved
“This was the first time we left our two cats together for any extended time, and were very happy with how well they were taken care of! Kacey and Kelly were very communicative and friendly, and our pets warmed up to them quickly- would highly recommend!”
“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!”
About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own that I care for daily. I also care for my friends pets often and am excited to meet your pets and provide them the best care that they deserve. I am available all day on weekends and in the evenings every day. Some week days I am available more often. I am also available for overnights stays. I have a fenced in yard so would be able to have your pets in my home with no concern of them running off or anything like that. If I am caring for your pets in your home I will treat your home like my own, providing the best care.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs since I was little, from tiny friends to big, gentle giants. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable and will send timely updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are in good hands. I have experience caring for puppies through senior dogs and will happily stick to their usual routines to help them feel comfortable. While I wasn’t raised with cats in my home, I’ve had experience caring for them as well. Neighbors, family, friends, and even strangers have trusted me with their pets for check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and more. I can’t wait to meet you and get to know your pets! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pups! Friday-Monday I am available around the clock for check-ins, walks, playtime, and feeding. Since I am available in your home, I will stick to your already established safety measures to keep your pet safe while you are away!
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.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Scranton
Veronica was so sweet, attentive, and caring with all three of our animals. Our cat is diabetic, and Veronica made sure she received her insulin on time every morning, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog also had a few accidents while we were gone, and Veronica was very communicative and made sure everything was cleaned up before we returned. We truly appreciate how well Veronica cared for our pets and kept us updated throughout our trip. We will absolutely be booking her again!

As of September 2026, there are 178 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.

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.
