“Christa is the best! She is so nice to help taking care of Toba for a last minute request. Our boy Toba was still recovering from diarrhea and needs probiotics for a few days. I was worried about this situation happened right before our trip. She is so patient for this extra care. From our first meet I just felt right that I can trust her! During our trip we received a lot of pictures and detailed updates from her. We can tell Toba really enjoyed meeting her and the walks! She really took a good care of my boy. We came home with a fully recovered and happy boy and felt so grateful for Christa’ s help! Christa is definitely the one you can fully trust with your little family member! We will have her back next time and highly recommend her to all!”

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!

“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 have had pets most of my life. Mostly cats at first, but more recently (about four years ago) me and my family decided to get a black lab puppy that we raised with a lot of love and care. I was the main person responsible for training, playing with and exercising him, and he grew to be an amazing dog! I have dog sitten for friends, taking care of both cats and dogs, and have always made sure to provide plenty of love and entertainment for all those furry friends. I work full time in an office setting, but have the ability to work remotely when needed, all I need is my computer and headset. That makes my schedule pretty flexible, so I can easily fit it care for your pet! I am extremely good at following the instructions I am given on how I should handle pets and (if needed) household items. I will meet whatever schedule I am given, and always make sure to leave everything the way I found them. I am very patient with shy animals and playful with active ones. I can provide exercise in the form of playtime, walking or trips to the dog park.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years, both in my own home and in clients’ homes. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also experienced with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique routine and comfort level. I believe pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone stick to their normal routine, I’m happy to provide personalized care that fits their needs. I’m reliable, responsible, and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel like they’re with family. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet care. Throughout the school year, I work as an elementary school counselor, so I’m typically available after school on weekdays, as well as evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I’m very easy to communicate with and happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. Whether you need regular care or last-minute help, I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of affection. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic medications if needed, and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment.

About: I have great knowledge and experience of dogs of all breeds and sizes, and have house sat and walked dogs through rover since I was a kid with my mom. I am experienced in training, introducing, and watching dogs as I have fully trained a male lab puppy, an African mastiff, my personal dog, and a therapy dog! I am currently taking full time college classes online, with two in person weekly. I also work marketing remotely so I have a lot of flexibility as I get to create my own schedule. I also am very fit and like to walk/hike daily finding new trails for me and the pups! I do hourly walks depending on the dog, as well as parks/hikes to make sure they fullfill their energy needs. I also ensure they are let out to use the bathroom on a consistent schedule as well as food and water. I myself have some energy so I do like to run around the backyard and/or play with them lots! If training is requested that is also done on a consistent strict schedule.

“Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!”

About: Hi, my name is James and I am an active and energetic animal lover that has had dogs and cats my entire life. In addition to my own pets, my wife and I have fostered with local dog and cat rescues for the past 10 years. My love for animals doesn't stop there, I have worked in the zoological industry for the past 20 years. My first 15 years as a zookeeper and the last 5 as a zoo curator. If you have domestic farm animals or exotics of any kind, I am very comfortable caring for them. I have experience administering medications and specialized diets, as well as, giving injections as needed. If you are looking for someone with a wealth of experience in caring for animals, please reach out. I am working full time, but am still able to overnight, if needed. Otherwise, I am available for any morning and evening care that is wanted. I'd prefer not to take care of any pets in my home for the time being due to the fact that we have several fosters, as well as our own pets.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Shrewsbury

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 604 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Shrewsbury. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 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.
