Emily is fantastic! She came over to meet the pups before we left and reviewed everything with me. She was very thorough and, even more importantly, our pups both loved her. She sent pictures and video which was awesome to see the dogs so happy. Would definitely continue to use Emily, our dogs love her!

About: I have two Cavapoos and love them to death!! I love doggies. I grew up in Montana with a Pomeranian and have dog sit many small and large dogs: Yorkies, Tibetan Terriers, Retreviers, Labs, etc. I enjoy spending time and caring for all types of dogs. I know how hard it is to find someone you trust to stay with my pets, so I would love to help someone else out! I have done Rover on and off over the last 10 years and I always really enjoying the pets I care for. I love running, hiking, walking and playing fetch with your dog and I am looking forward to caring for your pet! I understand the stress of traveling and having to leave your pet behind! I love to check in often and send frequent photos! I work remote, so I can spend ample time with your pups. My puppies are rarely left alone and I know how important it is for your dogs to have company! I have a fenced yard and a doggy door. I know where my dogs are at all times and keep a close eye on them.

Bailey was great! We needed someone to watch our 2 goldens on very short notice and she was able to drop in a few times a day while we were out. She’s very attentive, sends lots of pictures and updates, and isn’t afraid of some crazy puppies 😅 thank you again!

Jazmin watched our two cats for a week. Each day I received multiple photos of them as well detailed accounts of how much they are and their overall activity level. She communicates amazingly and is always quick to respond. Will definitely be booking in the future. And my cats loved her!

Kelsey did a great job entertaining my energetic 3.5 year old corgi mix. She made sure my dog got her energy out during the drop in visit by playing lots of fetch with her!

About: As a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, I bring reliability, responsibility, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. You can count on me to be dependable, follow your pet’s routine closely, and treat your home and furry family member with the utmost respect. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and compassion I give every pet as if they were my own. I know every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure, exercise, and positive reinforcement to senior pets who require a slower pace, extra patience, and medication reminders when needed. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, maintain feeding and walking schedules, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also believe communication is key. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care that gives you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I schedule my day to ensure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care, I make reliability and punctuality a priority. I also keep pet owners updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so they can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of booking requests, including weekdays, weekends, and many holidays. I strive to provide dependable care that fits each pet’s unique routine and needs. I have a fenced yard. My home is kept clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards. I monitor pets throughout the day, provide plenty of exercise and enrichment, and separate pets if needed to ensure everyone remains comfortable and safe.

About: Growing up on a ranch I have experience with lots of animals! We had 6 large dogs and too many cats too count growing up! I also had a bearded dragon for 6 years and a hamster so I can handle pretty much anything! I’m available pretty much 24/7 and I would of course let you know otherwise. This is a full time job for me so scheduling is never an issue! Honestly how I care for your pets is mainly up too you! Housing wise they’d be staying in my room with me at night, I’m an early riser and have a morning run I do so any dogs would more then likely join me for that depending on the age! Food and water I keep in my kitchen away from my cats food and my cats stays in our large basement during boardings for her safety and comfort!

About: I’ve never lived a day of my life without at least one dog in it. I’ve cared for my own, my neighbors and family. I worked for a dog daycare and boarding facility. I’ve administered medications including injections. I love to take them for walks, have play time, or just snuggle on the couch. I will treat your pup as if it were my own. I live in Billings but also frequent the Roberts, Joliet, and Red lodge areas, so consider me for overnights if you are out in that area. I work from home part time and am able to create my own schedule. This would be a fun and rewarding way to get out if the house. My dogs sleep in bed with me, but I would have your pets sleep wherever they are used to. I like to keep feeding on a regular schedule. 8am for breakfast and 6pm for dinner. I like to go for walks around 4, again keeping a schedule. Since I would be staying in your house, if you want, your pets would keep to whatever their regular routine is.

About: Since 10 years ago I’ve enjoyed giving attention to dogs and cats and making them feel happy, active, safe, and giving the attention they want. I am self employed and sole business owner so jumping to a dog or cat need is easy for my schedule. I have high accountability and professionalism being a financial entrepreneur and loving dogs and cats as a side hobby here. I scan the environment and see what they like to do, I watch their behavior and compliment it or help guide them for behavior or their needs. Studying them and then making sure they feel happy, active, safe, and attention given!

About: Since I was 12, I had helped my neighbors who moved from Alaska with their 12 husky team of sled dogs. I then helped my neighbors down the road a little further with their breeding business where I did administer shots for puppies, clean kennels make sure they were well fed taken care of. I then have also volunteered at a dog grooming, business for mental health awareness. My summer job is coming to an end in October and I will be very free and available for taking care of someone’s fur babies I would care for them just as if they were mine. I would make sure to give regular potty breaks and walks, play with them and make sure they are well taken care of. While I am caring for the pets in their home I will treat the home with respect. It will stay clean and as if I was never there and the pets would be loved for no matter what

Emily took great care of my two cats while we were away. It's clear she really loves animals and they were very glad to see her each day. She sent pictures and gave me daily updates as well.

We went on a 4 day trip for Christmas & had Angela watch our fur babies (drop in visits + walks). I am so thoroughly impressed and thankful that we chose Angela. Her love of animals is evident, as our pets were always happy and healthy in the photos she sent us (we got photos every single visit). It feels so good to have a pet sitter who you can trust with your fur babies, because they are family too. I will 100% be rebooking with her for a trip next month! I encourage others to do the same as well! ♥️

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Shepherd on Rover is $12.84 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 98 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Shepherd. 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 Shepherd. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
