“Amazing service! Very easy to work with, the house was in great order when I got home. Most important, the Dogs were happy and well taken care of. I have no complaints or hesitations to call her again.”
“Bryanna was such a friendly and attentive sitter! Our kitties are very social so knowing that they had good company and weren’t left to feel lonely was so wonderful. Bryanna communicated regularly and always shared pictures and helpful updates about our pets and home. Will absolutely book them again for a future need. <3”
“Samantha was so awesome with our cats! She really went above and beyond to make sure they were taken care of and comfortable with her. We received excellent communication about how they interacted, ate, played etc. and of course got lots of pictures. Definitely will be booking with her again for any future trips!”
“Everything is fine. Jaclyn left me a text photo of Hank being out in the yard. I know he likes her because her wont do that for everyone. We will be making an appt for a week in Sept. I have already discussed this with Jaclyn. Please put an $8.00 tip on my account number that was provided. I appreciate the fact that her family lives several blocks from my home.”
“Very attentive and careful while walking my husky that hasn’t always been well behaved on a leash. He even tried working with her to reduce her pulling. Gave her all the attention she needed when she was missing her family! Would absolutely use him again and recommend him to friends and family.”
About: I am not a professional but sometimes I believe that’s okay. I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve always had such a big heart when it comes to animals. I worked at a shelter while I was in high school and the hardest for me was not bringin them all to my house. I have two dogs of my own. They’re both older girls and very very laid back and friendly. I think every dog has personality of their own and that’s what is beautiful about dogs. I think taking care of dogs is more than a chore or a job, i think it’s more of passion. In my opinion you have to love dogs to be able to take care of them the way they need. I hope I can be what you’re looking for.
“Marek went above & beyond for my requests, he even wiped up the floor when it was raining. He brought & used HIS OWN towel for that. 10/10 would always use his services again!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life — I grew up around dogs, cats, and pretty much every pet in the neighborhood, so being around them just feels like home. I started pet sitting for family and friends when I was young, and it kind of grew from there through word of mouth, which honestly means the world to me. I genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means keeping up with a high-energy pup or just sitting quietly with a pet who needs some company. Every animal has their own personality, and getting to know that is honestly my favorite part of the job. My schedule is super flexible — honestly, anytime works for me. I'm self-employed, so I have the freedom to be available whenever your pet needs me, whether that's early mornings, evenings, weekends, or last-minute bookings. No 9-to-5 restrictions here! Your pet will never feel like they're being squeezed into a busy schedule — they'll always have my full attention. When I'm in your home, I treat it like my own — with respect, care, and a lot of love for your pet. I follow whatever routine your pet is used to because consistency matters, especially when you're away. I'm not just popping in to check a box — I'm fully present, keeping things comfortable and familiar so your pet barely notices you're gone. Your home and your fur baby are in good hands.
About: I have grown up my entire life around pets and animals of all varieties. Dogs, cats, Parakeets, and even hamsters. I have learned and grown to love and care for animals because I view them as family, not just pets. I have walked dogs and have house sat for many years and am considered experienced with most forms of care and service to pets such as dogs and cats I work a full time job as a social studies educator where I teach seventh grade through 12th grade world, history and government classes. Teaching is my absolute passion and I love working with kids of all ages To help guide them towards helping them become better versions of themselves every single day! Teaching may be my passion, but I love working with animals on the side when I have spare time. I am free on weekends, most evenings, and free almost the entire summer. I am easily and readily available for evenings and even summers to take care of your furry friends while you may be away for longer periods of time! I currently live in a single bedroom apartment with only one furry firmed if my own. He is a 6 year old American Short-Hair who is the sweetest of kitties and my entire world. I adopted him when he was just a month old and he has been with me his whole life. My apartment is located next to nearby parks and grassy areas for walks and exercise. My apartment is also smoke-free and is in a pet-friendly neighborhood with quiet streets and friendly neighbors.
“They are AWESOME! It was our first time using Rover and it exceeded our expectations completely! They were so easy to work with and the Reports they sent while we were gone were amazing. 1000x better than having my fur-babies stay in a kennel. We will absolutely be using Kari and Clint again in the future ?”
About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).
About: I have experience with several breeds of dogs and different types of animals. My Macee is a 4 year old Frenchton! I have previous experience with cats and goats. My previous Boston Terrier, Angel (and she was an Angel❤️) unfortunately passed away from cancer in 2025 so I also have some senior/disabled pet care experience. I currently work full-time with children so some dates are limited but I am happy to help when/where I can! My availability is typically every other weekend but I may be able to make an exception where needed. Don't hesitate to ask! I currently do not have a fenced in yard so I am only offering drop in/pet sitting in the pets home at this time.
“Kelly Lea did a phenomenal job caring my two kitties. They were well fed, and kept so happy with playtime and treats. It’s great to be able to enjoy your time away when you know that your fur babies are taken care off by such a caring and wonderful person as Kelly Lea. She kept us updated on their well being with messages and photos. She was on time to every visit even when she needed to adjust one of the visit times. Rest assured we will definitely book Kelly Lea for future needs, what a great experience for all.”
“Darcie was a wonderful! We had to leave our 3.5 month puppy, Bender overnight and were worried that he would have a hard time adjusting to a boarding facility. Darcie was the pet sitter we contacted. She was great and despite her busy week made time to meet with us. When we explained Bender was a shy pup she made extra effort to come see him before we left at our house to get him familiar with her. We received several pictures and updates through the day/night she was at our house. She also volunteered to work with him to overcome his timidness. He is shy of walks but went out with Darcie very comfortably!”
About: Hi, I’m Bri! 🐾 I’m the kind of pet sitter who treats your pets like family — with patience, love, and plenty of attention to the little things that make them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your cat needs a calm companion, your pup needs extra playtime, or your pet simply needs someone reliable while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel cared for in their own home. I’ll follow their routine, respect their personality, and keep you updated so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. ❤️ My goal isn’t just to “watch” your pet — it’s to make them feel loved, secure, and spoiled while you’re away. 🐶🐱 I work full-time, but pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy doing outside of work. I understand how hard it can be to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets when you’re busy, traveling, or away from home. While my weekday availability is centered around my work schedule, I’m dependable about the times I commit to and make the most of every visit. I’ll give your pets plenty of attention, follow their normal routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m especially passionate about providing reliable, personalized care rather than treating every pet the same. I’ll take the time to learn their personality, needs, and little quirks — and I’ll keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. ❤️ **Your pets get my full attention when I’m with them, and you get a sitter you can count on.** 🐶🐱🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I believe great pet sitting starts with creating a calm, secure, and trustworthy environment where your pets can feel relaxed while you’re away. I take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and needs, while making sure their surroundings stay clean, safe, and comfortable. I’m attentive to details, respectful of your home, and committed to providing dependable care you can feel confident in. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or simply loves to relax, I’ll give them the patience, supervision, and personalized attention they deserve. **Your home is their safe space, and I’ll treat it — and your pets — with the same care and respect I would want for my own. ❤️🐶🐱**

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 726 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Smithland. 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.

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.
