“Erin has been a very responsible caretaker. I give her very good ratings. Hopefully she can be a repeat sitter while I'm kennel training a new puppy. Erin did wonderful.”
“Stephanie was so helpful and kind with our two dogs! This was a first time using Rover and Stephanie exceeded all needs and eased our worry. With a senior dog who needs extra care and a younger dog who has much more energy, she was able to accommodate both of our boys to keep them happy and safe!”
About: I work from home full-time. This means your pet will receive frequent supervision, companionship, potty & play breaks and lots of attention throughout the day! I will provide a safe and loving environment where your pet will be comfortable and cared for like they are part of the family. I've cared for animals in every stage of life. I have extensive experience with cats including bottle-feeding orphaned kittens, caring for senior cats, and supporting pets with age related needs. I also have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I understand that each pet requires individualized care, patience, and attention. Open to hosting dogs in home and drop ins for cats. I work from home full-time, allowing me to provide frequent supervision and attention throughout the day. Work is flexible allowing for lots of love and activities. I have a large, fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play with my dog. When not outdoors our house guest will primarily stay with me in my home office as my co-worker and side kick. With lots of breaks for tummy rubs and head scritches of course!
“Ryan has excellent communication and is so great with our dogs. He’s been incredibly flexible and accommodating to our ever-shifting schedule. We would highly recommend him!!”
“Mackenzie was so amazing! She stayed right on schedule and made sure to communicate with me each day and even helped me recognize that i incorrectly scheduled her assistance plan and got it all squared away for me. Will definitely be requesting her services again!”
About: My family has had dogs and cats since I was little and they currently have three dogs at home. Unfortunately I moved so I don’t get that animal love that I want and I don’t have a pet of my own here. I would love to take care of your animal(s) and treat it like it’s my own! I work right down the street from my apartment and will be home for lunch every day. My hours are 8-2 so your animal would not go longer than 4 hours alone each day. I live in an apartment, but it has a dog park that I have taken many dogs I’ve sat for to! I also live close to a walking trail and it’s perfect!
“We can’t say enough great things about Samantha! She was so flexible with our work schedules and absolutely so sweet with our 2 fur babies. I think they miss her! Such a comforting thought, knowing that they were taken care of. Can’t wait to book again!”
“Valerie is amazing. Our dogs love her and she always sends the cutest photos. She plays fetch with our hyper dog and cuddles with our lazy dog. She will definitely be my go to when I need a sitter”
“I have very pleased to have Michael care fore my seven year old cat for over four years. When I am away from home I am confident that my cat will be well cared for during those periods.”
“Pamela did a great job. This is the 2nd time she’s checked on my pets and they enjoy being around her, she even gets my shy guy to come out to say hello for pictures. Also Pamela sends great pictures every day. I will definitely hire her again if possible.”
“Joann was fantastic! She exceeded our expectations by being conscientious about our cats' needs. I was also happy that she took care of our garbage even though she didn't have to. I'm sure our cats would love to see her again.”
“Kylee was a WONDERFUL Rover sitter! She was on time based on our agreement every day, she treated my pup like her own, and sent the best pictures! I will definitely book her again! (Once Coronavirus allows me to get back to business as usual).”
About: I am a responsible professional who is looking to make some extra money outside of my full-time job in tech. I love dogs and many other types of animals and have 2 dogs, Severus and Hagrid, whom I live with at home. My availability is relatively flexible, and I can work from home during the week. During the week I am available to stay overnight at your house and may be able to stop by in the middle of a weekday, depending on your location. During your absence I am also willing to take in your mail or water your plants. While I am available on weekends, I will need advanced notice to ensure that I am able to accommodate your request. My skills include experience training a puppy and caring for animals other than dogs. I have been pet/house sitting for families since I was eight, taking care of various types of animals such as dogs, reptiles, cats, and fish. I work full time M-F but have the flexibility to work remotely if I choose to do so. I am available evenings and weekends, as well as during the workday to let out dogs for bathroom breaks. I offer in-home boarding in my home for dogs, house sitting in the owner’s home (available to stay overnight in the home) for both dogs and cats, and drop-in visits.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8. I’ve taken care of a wide range of dog breeds, from pit bulls to winner dogs. I’ve taken care of my own, family members, and neighbors pets as well. I would take them on long walks, give them many pets, bathe them, and I know how to feed them their meds. I’m also great at cooking dog food! I’m currently working part time and going to college. My early mornings and evenings are free. My weekends are also free all day, so if your dog needed more attention on those days I’ll have more than enough time! I do NOT offer care in my home! my housing doesn’t allow pets and rent is too expensive to move. I’ll happily accommodate any other need you have though.
“Erica did a great job taking care of our elderly cat Cindy and keeping us updated with Rovercards. It is wonderful to be able to leave home for a few days and have someone available to care for your fur babies! Thank you!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Shawnee
I found Lindsey for my first time using Rover and she was stellar. She was very professional the entire time and provided great updates & photos while we were away. I really appreciate that she took care of Watson's needs as a senior cat (special food instructions/meds) and also assisted with cleaning up accidents that occurred. I would recommend her as a pet sitter! She clearly has so much love for senior pets and it shows through her care!
Pamela did a great job. This is the 2nd time she’s checked on my pets and they enjoy being around her, she even gets my shy guy to come out to say hello for pictures. Also Pamela sends great pictures every day. I will definitely hire her again if possible.
Hannah did an excellent job in caring for my cat & the outside ferals that show up @ feeding time. Hannah communicated & kept things seamlessly going while I was away. She is a wonderful, caring person that I am fortunate to have taking care of the kitties and have already booked her for another visit!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Shawnee on Rover is $16.33 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,355 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Shawnee. 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 Shawnee. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
