“Christa is amazing! We needed her last minute to let our dogs out when we weren’t home and she was able to stop by that night to meet us and them and then was there promptly the next day to care for them. She sent great pictures and her communication was excellent. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I currently am doing cat sitting full-time, so am available any days/times throughout the week, including weekends. My calendar is updated based on my availability (dates blocked out when I am traveling). In clients' homes, I follow all instructions given by the client. This includes feeding, water refresh, a text update with at least 1 photo and playtime (with belly rubs if allowed!). I also am experienced with giving insulin/medicinal injections, along with oral medications, ear drops and eye drops. I am a hopeless cat lover - I miss them when I'm away and love them with hugs and kisses while there! I understand (and just adore) that each cat has its own personality and needs to be cared for individually. I adjust my play and interactions with each cat as needed. I'm comfortable learning about new cats and how to deal with each personality type. Being the cat lover I am, I would love to give you peace of mind while you need to be away from your kitties. I would require a meet and greet as I believe this is needed to truly give the best service to your cats. If you think I would be a good fit, please place a reservation request. I would love to meet other cat lovers and their cats!
About: I have owned a couple of dogs, along with caring for families and neighbors animals. I have experienced caring for animals with medical issues as well. I am a new mom looking for some extra work where I can bring my little one with me. I have a very flexible schedule. I will treat you home as I would want mine to be treated!! Any rules given will be followed and if your pet could talk they would ask where I am to play when I am not there ◡̈
“Andrea is a pet owner’s best friend. Reliable, on time, and genuinely caring for the well being of her furry clientele. She cat-sat for us while my husband and I were traveling, and we were totally delighted with her. Checked in at the appointed times, shared stories and photos of our cat, so we felt confident our kitty was getting the best, most attentive care. The clincher was our cat (affectionately known as the invisible cat to former sitters), actually let Andrea get a peek at her - to me that was the two-paws up of approval! Would recommend Andrea to anyone seeking kind, and conscientious pet care in the future! 🐈🐾”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind, from my family dog to my friend’s dogs with special behavioral needs. My family and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and give medication to their dogs and cats. I currently work part time at a dance studio for children that is mainly open during the evenings, allowing me to have a flexible schedule during the day for more walks and playtime. I can walk, feed, play with, and give medications to your fur baby to give them the extra love and attention they want during the day.
“Miranda did a great job watching over my two cats, Ninja and Scraps while I was away on vacation. I definitely would recommend her and will be using her again in the future! She left great notes and made me feel at ease while I was away. 😁 Thank you. This was the first time I have used Rover and it was a great experience. Miranda also help me understand how to use the app since I made some silly mistakes.”
About: I’m a responsible Rutgers college student offering dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-ins. I love spending time with animals and will treat your pets like my own while you’re away. I’m available every day on a flexible summer schedule for dog walking, drop-ins, and basic pet care. I’ll keep my availability updated and am happy to discuss your pet’s routine ahead of time to make sure I can provide reliable, consistent care. I take safety and trust seriously and will follow each owner’s instructions carefully. During walks, drop-ins, or stays, I’ll make sure pets have fresh water, proper leash or harness use, potty breaks, and a calm environment. I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well.
About: I've been caring for pets for a little over 5 years now. I used to work at a pet store handling fish, birds and small animals as well. I have a 5 year old golden retriever as well as 2 cats. I can help administer medications for dogs and cats that need it. I can also care for elderly dogs and puppies. I don't mind bathing them or doing nail trims either. I'm currently a college student doing online classes so I have plenty of time to drop by a clients house or to have them come to mine. Right now Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays work the mest with my schedule. I would be more than willing to negotiate other timings as well. I have a fenced in backyard and a dog to keep yours company. My entire house is pet friendly and welcoming. I can also crate your dog if needed and make the environment more comfortable for them
About: Hi, I’m Isabella and I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and reliable care! Your pet’s comfort and well-being are always my top priority, as my experience with a variety of species supports my desire to provide. I currently work at a veterinary hospital, caring for pets of all ages (from babies to seniors) so I’m comfortable handling a wide range of needs. My experience goes beyond work also as I’ve had a variety of pets throughout my life! I’m currently finishing up some summer college credits, which gives me great flexibility for early morning and mid-to-late day check-ins after class. My schedule is consistent week-to-week, so you can count on reliable timing and routine for your pet! I tailor my care to each pet’s routine to keep them as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and prioritize any preferences your pet is used to. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands!
About: Hi! I’m an 18 year old student who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets and making them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’ve grown up with cats and have experience with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and understanding animal behavior and moods. I’m very patient, gentle, and attentive, and I always try to match each pet’s personality, whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and need a calm presence. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always treat them like my own. I’m responsible, reliable, and happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel completely at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and stress-free in your absence! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I already structure my day around responsibility, consistency, and being attentive to details. I’m used to keeping a steady routine, so adding feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins for pets feels very natural to me. I enjoy spending time with animals, so it never feels like a chore, it becomes something I genuinely look forward to throughout the day. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of the family. I follow their normal feeding schedule, make sure they always have fresh water, keep their space clean, and give them lots of attention, play, and affection depending on their personality. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of routines and instructions. I stick closely to the pet’s usual schedule so they feel secure in their own environment. I double-check everything: food, water, walks, litter boxes, medications if needed, and I always make sure pets get not just care, but companionship so they don’t feel alone while their owner is away.
About: I've been taken care of dogs since I was 10. Love every moment of it. They are all so good to me and I just want the best for them! I work full-time during the day so pet sitting in the evening and during the night time would fit perfectly into my schedule without any compromise. I am primarily a sitter of pets in my client's home so I will be caring for them whichever way possible. I am flexible with indoor and outdoor activities.

“Rita did well with our cats, this was our very first Rover experience, so were a bit anxious. We appreciate she send photos every day, showed patience with our Leo, which is a very skittish cat by nature. She also replies and/or emails about how the cats were adapting to her. She was responsive to request to be alert to packages deliveries as well. This was a mutual learning for humans and cats involved, especially on the house routines. Looking forward to future assignments.”
About: I had a multiple dogs growing up, one who is 11 years old now, and also just became a new Fur Mom to an 8 month old golden retriever (who has put me through the wringer so far). I am an animal lover and just want to be helpful since I use rover myself for sitters, and i figured I’d be just as helpful as the many sitters on here have been for me!! I work full time but that is just 3 days a week, so any other day I am available most of the day to accommodate your fur babies! My schedule does change every week though I live in an apartment complex but have access to a dog park within the complex and will be able to take your pups to local dog parks as well
About: Dogs and cats are more than pets, they're family. I understand that more than anything and I will treat them with care, respect, and love. I have lots of time on my hands, so (unless stated otherwise), I'll be there for your furry friends! I’m willing to help you out! I don't mind transporting dogs in my car for the park or walking them around the neighborhood. And of course, I'll make sure they're well taken care of at home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,169 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Shrewsbury. 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
