“We are so thankful to have had Sarah to drop in and take care of our cat while we were away. Our cat is very skittish and afraid around strangers. But Sarah was so patient with her, respected her boundaries, but was consistent with trying to earn her trust. By the end of the week she was petting and playing with her. Sarah stuck to our schedule, did everything we requested,and provided us great updates and pictures. I highly recommend!”
“Whitney is great! With her vet med experience, she definitely has me feeling at ease to know my dog is in good hands while I’m out of town. She even cut my dog’s nails while watching him! :)”
“I am 100% satisfied with the care Tia provided for my baby girl. She sent a lot of pictures and the report cards were very detailed. She went above and beyond! I will definitely use Tia again when needed. Thanks for a job well done! It will make leaving her easier the next time.”
“Natalie was absolutely amazing with our animals. You knew she was doing a good job because every picture she sent, our pups were smiling and looked happy. She’s amazing and we will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Taylor provided excellent care to our two Dobermans. She was willing to come out early and meet our dogs and was very friendly. She arrived on time for a drop in visit and provided timely updates and many pictures of our dogs hanging out. We were very happy to use Taylor and will absolutely reach out to her again for future visits and stays during our travels.”
“Colleen was so awesome. She accepted my booking request last minute and worked with me on drop in times to make sure my boys were taken care of. She was great with them during visits and provided photos!”
“Very happy with Camille's drop in on our kitties. She did everything we asked and more. Our cats felt comfortable enough to come greet her, which says a lot! Really great communication from her too. Will absolutely keep her in mind for future needs!”
About: I’m a pre‑vet student with two years of hands‑on experience working in dog kennels and boarding facilities. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, and pets who need special care. I also have experience with timid, reactive, or nervous animals and always move at their pace. Whether it’s a big dog who loves long walks or a small pup who needs gentle handling, I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust in every visit. This summer, I’ll be in classes from 10–5, but I’m fully available for morning and evening care. For pet‑sitting, I stop by in the morning for a shorter visit, then spend extended time with your pets after class for enrichment, walks, and companionship. For dog‑walking, I’m available after 5:30 PM and in the mornings between 7:30-9 AM. I’m comfortable supporting pets with special requirements, including training, potty training, and medications. I can crate at night if preferred or allow free‑roam based on your pet’s routine. If your dog isn’t comfortable on walks, I’m happy to provide yard play or indoor enrichment instead. During sits, I typically give at least one 30‑minute walk a day, often longer when appropriate. For cats, I offer enrichment tailored to their personality — playtime, affection, or quiet companionship if they prefer space. When owners are comfortable, I also enjoy taking dogs on hikes and using a secure harness buckle in the car. While I can’t guarantee a hike every stay, I always aim to include at least one long enrichment walk or adventure during my time with your pet.
About: Hi I’m Kirstin! I live in the Parkton NC area and I love all animals, especially cats and dogs! I specialize in caring for cats but I also accept dogs! I am flexible, trustworthy, hardworking and reliable, anytime you need me I will be there. I have plenty of experience with animals, I worked for a year as a veterinary assistant. I have three cats and a horse right now. Anything your animal needs I promise I will give them, I will treat your pets as if they are my own and love them like you do! Thanks for considering me to look after your pets! When I am not working as an ultrasound technologist I am taking care of my cats and my horse. I am an active person so I enjoy staying busy and would love to help with other people’s pets as a side job. I am not actively offering boarding at my own home but I am willing to stay in your house where your pet is comfortable. I will make sure your fur baby’s needs are met and they get plenty of cuddles, exercise and all of the care they need in their own home.
About: I’ve taken care of various dogs, puppies, cats, aquatic animals for several years now. I gained most of my experience with animals while being a nanny, and often watch pets while families go out of town or overnight trips. I currently work full time, so my hours are typically limited before 8 and after 5. I’m extremely flexible and often available on weekends for extra cuddles and playtime with your pet! As an animal owner myself, I know how hard leaving your baby can be. My top priority is to provide your pet with the highest quality care and the safest environment! All of my attention will be geared toward your animal(s). I also strive to have clear communication to make you and your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
“Tiffany is AMAZING! We are new to rover and our boys have never had a sitter before so we were wondering how it would work. Tiffany was quick to set a meet and greet with us and it worked out! The dogs loved her, 2 Great Danes are a lot of dog but she was great with them! Kept us up to date about everything while she was here, sent a bunch of photos for us while we were gone! Just wonderful to have Tiffany watching our babies and will absolutely use her again! Don’t hesitate, just book it!!”
“Kimberly was great!! Willow absolutely loved her. She communicated so well and took the absolute best care of Willow while checking in on her. I appreciate her flexibility. I was in a pinch and she really came through for us! Thank you soo much Kimberly.”
About: Aside from experience taking care of Cats, and Dogs, I also am experienced in Lizard Care, and I am willing to watch over exotic pets! I am relatively always free. I do plan to start college hopefully soon. However if something comes up, I am always very communitive with clients. I unfortunately do not have the space at my own house to board pets, however as someone staying overnight, or just popping in to take care of things, I am always respective of rules and boundaries. Tell me what I can or can't do, and I will follow that to a T. Pet wise, ill feed, water, and even clean up after them if any accidents occur. and I will ensure to give them lots of love and care as if they were my own. My services also extend to exotic pets. I am more experienced in care of reptiles, specifically lizards, (I am a very avid reptile lover), however if I have any questions I am able to communicate and look to my employer for answers and instruction. Pricing for exotic pets will follow the same listing for dogs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 409 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Shannon. 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 Shannon. On Rover:
- 98% 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.
