About: I've had pets for the last 15 years. I'm an active dad who loves walks around town with my own dogs, I am more than happy to walk yours also. Our pets are up to date with vaccines and I keep clean water bowls daily. Feel free to reach out to me with your questions, I'll be happy to help. I am a stay home dad and I take pride in running my house accordingly. I'm an active runner and walk ours dogs often so they don't get anxious and i play fetch with them daily x3 at least. I have a schedule for feeding times to maintain appropriate weight goals for our pets. I have a fence backyard with space to play fetch so we don't have to find random parks on days that are too hot or too cold. However walks are a must for the dogs social development. Walk time vary depending on age, size and capability of the dog. I keep the AC or heat on according to the season.

About: I've been around dogs since I was born. They bring me a special kind of love that no other pet can and I just can't live without them. I currently have a dog of my own and I wanted to share my experience and overall love of dogs. I am ready to give your dog the love, attention, belly rubs, exercise and care they need while you're away on vacation, work or any occasion you will need some help. I will send lots of photos to make you feel comfortable that your dog is in good hands! Whether it's curling up on the sofa during a rainy day and snuggling, or going on a long walk on a brisk fall day, I am ready to have fun with your dog and provide the best care. I am a stay at home mom right now and have a lot of time to dedicate to dog walking or pet sitting. I am flexible with your needs and schedules. We have a yard at our house but also a very warm and inviting home with animal lovers alike. I will make sure your pet is well loved and safe in any condition.

About: With over 6 year in the veterinary field, I have experience in general practice, emergency and critical care, as well as surgery. My professional interests include client education, patient welfare, and emergency medicine. I’m CPR certified in both basic and advanced life support as well as fear free certified. I have a special passion for bully breed dogs but I enjoy working with animals of all breeds, sizes, and ages, as well as exotics — including all small mammals and reptiles. As a life long pet owner and full time veterinary nurse, most of my time is spent around animals providing excellent care. At work, I enjoy building relationships with my patients and their owners. In my free time, I enjoy relaxing with my dogs (Scarlett and Smokey) and my cats (Gino and Bandit). As a fear free certified professional, I am skilled in tailoring care to best suit each pet's individual needs. Aside from my training in animal behavior, I also have a strong passion for pet care - maximizing the overall wellbeing of each pet.

About: Hi, I’m Abby! 🐾 I’ve cared for animals through 4-H and pet sitting alongside my mom, and I’m now starting my own pet care business. I love all animals—furry, scaly, and feathery! From cats and dogs to birds, reptiles, and small animals, I provide dependable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’ll treat your animals like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away! Pet care has always been a huge part of my life! 🐾 After working full-time at a dog kennel, I decided to follow my passion and start my own pet care business. Now, I’m able to make caring for animals a part of my everyday life! My days and weeks are filled with caring for pets, giving them love and attention, keeping up with their routines, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while their families are away. I love that my work allows me to meet new animals and build special bonds with each one. 💕 I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own! 🏡💕 I’m happy to bring in mail, keep things tidy, follow any house routines, and make sure everything is safe and secure. I don’t mind sleeping over and staying with your pets, especially if they’re more comfortable having someone around. My goal is to leave your home just as I found it while making sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, and cared for! 🐾

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Smithville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Smithville is $31 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 269 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Smithville. 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 .

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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 , 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.
