My 2 dogs loved Bo as soon as she walked in the door for our meet & greet. She did 3 drop-ins on 1 day & took wonderful care of our pups. Bo sent updates & pictures of each visit. This is our first time using Rover & Bo is the perfect fit. She is a very caring & professional person who treats your pets & house like hers. Great communication!

Harrison was great! He was super flexible and communicative. He also checked in a couple times before the drop ins to ensure he had all the necessary information to care for Guillermo. He sent multiple pictures and provided an update for each visit, which I really appreciate. Thanks Harrison!

About: As a pet lover and owner, I understand the level of care and security pet owners desire. I am patient with pets, understand their needs, and will give them plenty of exercise (as desired) and attention. Whether you need me to visit your pet's home or drop them off at mine, I am glad to help. If you would like me to house your pet, I have plenty of room as well as a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run. There is also a bike trail nearby I would love to take your pet on if they enjoys walks. I currently have a small dog, but have owned other dogs before as well including a large dog, rabbits, a scorpion, and birds. I'm a quick at responding, so feel free to reach out whenever you may have a pet need. As a student, I have flexible hours and more availability than perhaps the average employee. I make it a point to take my own dog, Snickers on a walk at least once a day as well as playing fetch with her. I'd be happy to help keep your pet entertained as well. I have a comfortable home with plenty of indoor and outdoor space, and can make accomodations according to your pet's needs. I have a large basement in addition to a fenced in backyard, with plenty of room for them to run around. Have toys to provide as well to keep them entertained. I can provide a regular schedule for your pet to make sure they receive the care that works best for them. As a student, I can provide flexibility in regards to making home visits as well at providing care at my home if desired. I am just looking to help others with their pets. Please let me know any specifics or concerns you may have with what your pet may need.

Lee did a fantastic job taking care of our kitty! They were always timely, helped in all of the ways we asked, and most importantly bonded very quickly with our cat who is usually quite skittish with new people. We will definitely look to rebook with Lee for future trips!

We truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Ally! She stayed at our home for 6 days while we were away and took incredible care of our French Bulldog who was recovering from an IVDD flare-up. Frenchies can definitely be little forever babies with lots of quirks and extra needs, but Ally handled everything perfectly! She kept us updated every day with thoughtful messages and pictures, paid close attention to Bella’s routine, made sure she stayed comfortable and kept up with administering her medications. Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog was the greatest peace of mind! I would recommend Ally without hesitation, especially if you have a dog with medical needs or one who needs a little extra love and attention. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Ally! ❤️🐾

Katelyn was very generous and helpful! She asked all the questions and was prepared. Our pets ended up enjoying her presence as they warmed up to her. I definitely would recommend her coming back to care for our pets if she is still around! Even through our long week away, and the weather wasn’t entirely the best, Katelyn ensure that she came and took care of our pets. And was super kind enough to clear our pathways entry to our home. I can never be grateful than that.

Debi is very sweet to our little old man, Frankie. He had a litter box accident and she very quickly contacted me and cleaned it thoroughly. It brings a lot of peace of mind to have someone kind watching our family pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 5,110 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Skidmore. 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 Skidmore. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
