“Alexandra was very good with my skittish dog, taking the time to get him comfortable and sending updates and pictures of the visit. Her patience with him was much appreciated!”
“Kasey was great! Very communicative beforehand and after each visit. She took great pictures and was very sweet with my cat. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Judge was so happy to see Ashlea every day. We had great confidence that our furry family member was being cared for while we were away. We recommend Ashlea for those needing a reliable check-in while you're away.”
About: My lifelong devotion to animals spans decades, beginning at age 7 when I rescued ducklings and extending through a lifetime of loving diverse companions. What sets me apart is the sheer breadth of my hands-on background. Over the years, I have personally owned and shared my life with a wide spectrum of breeds—including a Belgian Shepherd, Staffordshire Terrier, Blue Heeler, and a Miniature Schnauzer. Because I am entirely unphased by size, distinct instinctual traits, or high energy levels, I am uniquely equipped to adapt to your dog's specific personality and look after them exactly as they are. As a self-paced online college student, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Because I can study from anywhere, I can easily adapt my routine to fit your pet's needs right in the comfort of their own home. Whether I am house sitting or dropping in for a visit, your pet will get plenty of companionship. For dogs who love to lounge, I am happy to provide all the couch snuggles and belly rubs they can handle—they make the perfect study breaks for me! If they need 100% undivided attention or an active companion for a structured neighborhood walk, I am fully available. My care and deep respect extend to all family members, including independent felines—having raised both a Persian and a Maine Coon. I am also uniquely comfortable with a wide variety of animals. When you trust me to care for your home and your pets, you are getting a seasoned, versatile caretaker who honors your exact routine, respects every unique boundary, and treats your animals like family. As a self-paced online college student, my day is incredibly flexible, allowing me to fully prioritize your pet's routine. Because my coursework does not tie me down to rigid class times, I am available throughout the day for house sitting and drop-in care. I can easily adjust my schedule to align with your pet's established walking, feeding, and potty break times, ensuring they experience zero disruption while you are away. Safety and respect for boundaries are the foundations of my care. When staying in your home or dropping in, my first priority is securing the environment by ensuring doors, gates, and windows are locked tight. I closely follow all instructions regarding dietary restrictions, feeding schedules, and household rules. Because every animal communicates differently, I pay close attention to body language to ensure they feel safe and relaxed. Whether it means keeping a young pup's training routine perfectly consistent or knowing exactly where a timid cat likes to hide when meeting someone new, I manage your home and your pets with the utmost vigilance and care.
“Doray was fantastic! She came over for an initial meet to get acquainted before our scheduled visits started, which I think is very kind. She kept in touch the right amount and always sent photos. Our usually shy cat warmed up to her and ran to greet her at the door. Would recommend and would be happy to hire again. :)”
About: I am very patient and understanding with dogs and cats and always have a soft spot for animals. I have experience working with older dogs and medication they might need. I am working around a few different aspects such as college schooling, some social gatherings with friends, and overall business. Many weekends I am free and some weekdays I am also free. I do not own any pets but I did watch my friend’s family dogs for many years. I have had a dog and a cat in the past.
“Rebekah took care of my senior cat for a little over a week and she was so wonderful! I loved her updates and pictures she would send throughout the week. She went above and beyond (literally-so awesome). I’m so glad Phoebe Elizabeth got to hang out with her favorite pet sitter everyday. They seemed like they because great friends! I would highly recommend Rebekah to anyone needing a trustworthy sitter for their fur-children!”
“Rachel is an amazing pet sitter! We have booked with her consistently since joining Rover and she has been excellent every time. She’s super communicative and takes excellent care of our furball friends - would absolutely book with her again in the future!”
About: I have four dogs at home, a cat, and two tarantulas! Thus, i’ve had plenty of pet care-taking experience since I was a child! I take my dogs on walks, play with them, feed them, and offer cuddle time every day! I also have a cat, which goes the same for her too :) I can also take care of exotic pets, as I do so for my two tarantulas. I’m available to take care of your pets anytime besides Monday nights from 5:30-6:30pm. Otherwise, your convenience is my first priority. I can do overnight and even check on your pets in the early morning. My care is crafted around your time and needs. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort in both my home and clients’ homes. I closely follow care instructions, maintain a clean environment, provide regular potty breaks, feeding, exercise, and ensure pets feel calm, secure, and well-supervised at all times. I can crate your dog as needed, play with them, let them out, etc.
“Kaitlyn was AMAZING!! Ive never had someone take better care of our fur babies. She treated them like they were her own. She’s 100% become our new go-to sitter anytime we’re out of town. If you’re not booking with Kaitlyn you’re making a mistake!!”
“Amber was extremely caring and flexible even after a mistake on our end with our address being labeled incorrectly. She astounded us by being over and above in her care for Bill. We felt very grateful that she was able to care for him over the holiday weekend.”
“Page took great care of my dog, Willow! This was Willow’s first Rover experience and I can tell she was very well taken care of which puts my mind at ease. I will definitely be booking with Page again in the future!”
About: As a professional caregiver and devoted pet owner, I provide calm, reliable care tailored to your pet’s routine. Experienced with medications, multi-pet households, and maintaining secure, respectful homes while you’re away. Clear communication and consistency are always my priority. I prioritize pet care in my daily routine by keeping consistent feeding, walking, and play schedules. I adjust to each pet’s needs and make sure their routine is predictable and comforting, whether it’s a daily visit, drop-in, or overnight stay. I communicate with owners regularly to provide updates and ensure their pets feel happy and secure. I treat every home and pet as if it’s my own. I follow instructions carefully, administer medications or special care when needed, and maintain a clean, safe environment. I supervise all interactions, respect boundaries, and monitor behavior to prevent accidents. My goal is always to create a calm, stress-free space where pets feel secure, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“Paige is the ULTIMATE go-to for pet sitting! She's SO attentive and really goes above and beyond for not just your pets but also for her clients. I originally booked her for her extra skills and qualifications since one of my kitties is an FIP survivor, and even though my cat has since been marked 'cured', I continued to book with Paige because I think my kitties love her as much as I do! I really appreciate how patient she is with my shier cat and I love how much trust that has built for my kitty to approach Paige now! She is so personably and I really appreciate her attention to detail. She sends the best updates, photos & videos of my babies (which I know is what we all live for when we're away from home). Getting to know Paige's heart and truly deep love for animals has been such a joy and makes leaving them behind a tiny bit easier when I'm out of the town. I looked at a lot of different profiles & pet sitting companies so I really do mean it when I say she is THE BEST!”
“We love Jean! She’s been our go to every time we’re out of town. Super reliable and responsive. Our pets are our kids so knowing Jean is watching over them, we have peace of mind when traveling!”
“Makayla has great communication and took great care of my kitten! She’s very trustworthy and left my home clean and organized after her visit. Would 100% recommend and will be booking with her again in the future.”

Samantha was amazing! She was very responsive, dependable, and always kept to the schedule she committed to. She helped feed our cat, Logan, while we were out of the country and sent us pictures every day. She was so sweet and caring, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Logan was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for help with their pet!
Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of her cat while we were gone on vacation. She met him before we left and I could tell instantly that my cat liked her. He's usually very shy but after hearing us talk, he came out to say hello. Sarah was an excellent communicator and kept me up to date with daily photos and discussion about his behavior. It felt so good to know that our furry family member was in good hands while we were gone. Wonderful!
Amber was extremely caring and flexible even after a mistake on our end with our address being labeled incorrectly. She astounded us by being over and above in her care for Bill. We felt very grateful that she was able to care for him over the holiday weekend.
Thank you for being the very best Rover we could ever ask for, we just truly thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Our sweet Harry was so happy and taken care of and we can’t wait to rebook you again next time because we were able to relax on our vacation and love the family time while knowing our sweet Harry was safe
Wow. Shannon has been absolutely fantastic. I can’t begin to explain what a deep relief it is to receive her cute photos and updates. I can tell she truly cares about my pet and the amount of peace that brings when I’m on the road is huge. 10/10 absolutely recommend. Trustworthy and kind!
Michelle was amazing!!! This is the first time that I have ever hired a pet sitter and was kind of nervous. Michelle communicated so well with me and even came over before the drop in visits started to meet us and our kitties. Right when she walked in, our anxious boy greeted her and sniffed her hand and we knew she was the one! Throughout our trip, we received lots of pictures and were reassured that our babies were taken care of. I will definitely trust Michelle to care for my pets again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Shady Hollow on Rover is $23.31 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 3,673 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Shady Hollow. 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 Shady Hollow. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
