“Samantha took excellent care of my dog! She went above and beyond to make sure he felt safe and cared for, let him warm up to her on his terms and gave him all the love and pets! I would recommend her to anyone needing someone to care for their furry baby! ♥️ thank you Samantha!”

“Maycelin was great. She had never met my boys before and I have a very timid cattle dog. She was able to get him out to pee and poop. She followed instructions and was really Communicative and polite. I will def book her again :)”


About: Pretty much not a single day of my life has gone by without being around animals/pets. Even though I am new to the rover platform, I have cared for animals my whole life and will treat your fur baby just like one of my own! I’m really trying to build up my clientele to make this a successful side business so if you give me a shot I won’t disappoint! I currently work 2nd shift so I am readily available most weeks as listed: Mon, Wed, Thurs = 10am-3pm Tues = 10am-1pm Fri & Sat = 10am-6pm Sun = not available None of those times are set in stone and depending on the situation I may still be able to work something out with you. I’m flexible so you just let me know what you need. Those times are just a general idea of when I’m available each day of the week. I will treat your home with respect and will follow any guidelines you ask in order to care for your pet. Safety is my #1 priority so I will always ensure I am following your routine of doing things to keep your pet free from danger (walking on a leash if you do so, not letting them escape the house, etc)

“Justin did a fantastic job taking care of our kitties Phoenix and Cici while we were away! He was extremely professional, communicative, and very thoughtful. 5 stars all around!”

“Erika was absolutely amazing with my cat Suki! She went above and beyond to make sure Suki was well cared for. I really appreciated all the extra attention she gave my ‘spicy-towards-most-people” kitty - it was clear that Erika gained Suki’s trust. She was also patient when I accidentally gave her the wrong address. I would definitely book with Erika again! 💛”

“Adoni was great taking care of my cat, Leo, while we were away on vacation. Leo was very unsure of having someone else in the home and Adoni was very patient and careful with him. I would feel very comfortable booking with her again to take care of my furbaby!”

About: I love cats and dogs, and have had cats most of my adult life. I believe animals are truly family members and should be treated with gentleness and respecting their nature. I have no problem following detailed instructions, and every visit I take pics to show you your fur baby is being well cared for! I am free most mornings before 8:30am and in the evenings after 6pm. On weekends I have more flexibility in my schedule. I’ll be happy to work with you on whatever your scheduling needs are! If a client discusses a list of instructions, I’ll do my best to follow them to the letter. Otherwise, I’ll follow what to me is ideal care for an animal: ensuring they have clean and fresh water, proper food, cleaning litter boxes or taking a dog out for a walk as needed, and spending a little time cuddling and playing (respecting how shy they might be!). If a pet is too shy to play, sometimes I’ll just spend a few minutes sitting on the floor and talking to them in a soothing voice so they can get used to my presence as someone who is friendly. If approved beforehand, I can even bring (or use your own) a few treats! I may also reach out to you if I see something that I think needs addressing (not enough food or litter, a pet seeming lethargic or coughing excessively etc.). If that happens, I’ll discuss with you how you want to handle it. In case of illness, I take my own cats to Wentworth Animal Hospital so, for example, if I saw your cat seemed to be vomiting excessively, if you approved it I would have no problem taking them in for a walk-in and working out the payment and a reasonable rate with you over the phone. The most important thing is to ensure that your fur baby is given the best care possible. :-)

About: I’ve had animals all my life. I have volunteered for a rescue since adopting my first guy 7 years ago. I foster for the rescue and facilitate adoptions. Since beginning that journey I started working at a training/boarding facility under a behaviorist where I obtained my CPDT-KA. Now I am on the road and I’d like to work with dogs in a way allows flexibility in my schedule. I am newly on the road, I will be in Pelham, NC area for a few months. This gives me ample time and flexibility during the day to take care of your pets! I am used to being able to board dogs at my house. However, with the life change of living in a camper two dogs I will make myself available for visits in your home.
“My cat, Charlie, is very shy and cautious. Nick has been super patient with getting him on his good side! Charlie has warmed up to him so much, especially with this last visit. I always get so many pictures and videos which is something any pet parent would appreciate!”


“My cat, Jack, had the best care while I was away for 8 days! I came home to a happy, relaxed, and clearly very loved kitty. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Viridianne is incredibly attentive, caring, and reliable, and it’s obvious how much she truly loves animals. Jack absolutely adores her! I’ve used her multiple times and will continue to do so—I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

About: Dependable and attentive care with plenty of walks, play, cuddles. I am patient and experienced with shy pets, energetic puppies, and senior dogs alike. I also have experience with friendly or timid cats. I build my schedule around what each pet needs. I’m very flexible, and I’m able to adjust my availability depending on your timing — whether that means early mornings, evenings, or extended overnight stays. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and easy to work with, and I treat both customer care and pet care as equally important. Making sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved is always my priority, and I’m happy to tailor my routine to match theirs so everything feels seamless for you. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping a safe, clean, and comfortable environment that feels consistent and reassuring for the pet. I follow the routines and instructions you provide closely, making sure feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications are handled exactly the way your pet is used to. I keep the space tidy, clean up after the pets right away, and always respect your home as if it were my own. I’m reliable, communicative, and easy to work with, and I make sure you always know how your pet is doing through updates, photos, and check‑ins. My goal is to give your pet attentive, loving care while giving you complete peace of mind.

About: I grew up on a pig farm with various animals including dogs and cats. We had every pet I can think of big and small. While I don't miss the smell of the farm, I sure miss the animals and all the work that comes with them! I currently work from home and have a lot of time to entertain. I also have a teenager around who loves animals as well. When I am occupied with work, she is extremely helpful with tasks, feeding and playtime. I am knowledgeable about safety and will implement that information on a variable basis. Every situation will be different as every animal is different and requires different methods.

Samantha was great! She took very good care of our two cats! We had to book her last minute and she responded immediately, did everything we needed for our cats and was a great communicator. Will book again! She even got our very shy/moody cat to let her pet her which is not an easy task!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 412 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Shannon Forest. 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.
