“Daria was amazing with our pets. We loved our daily reports and pictures and she clearly has such a love for animals. Our pets want her to come back many more times! Beforehand she asked all the right questions and was great about communicating from start to finish.”
About: I bring a lifetime of diverse animal experience to every pet I care for. I grew up with a rescue dog—and even a pet duck—which taught me early how to adapt to different personalities and needs. Today I share my home with Halo, my black rescue cat, and Grover, my rescue Yorkie, both of whom remind me daily how important patience and trust are. I also cared for Daisy, my special‑needs yellow lab, and understand the gentle routines senior pets require. And with Teddie, my Coton de Tulear from a prestigious lineage, I’m familiar with breed‑specific care and structured environments. Whether your pet is a rescue, a senior, a purebred, or a quirky little character, I meet them exactly where they are and make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. As a writer who works from home, I have a naturally flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. My routine is calm, predictable, and easy to adjust around your pet’s needs—whether that means midday walks, morning check‑ins, or evening visits. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide steady, reliable care and keep your pet’s day running smoothly and stress‑free. I provide pet care exclusively through walks and drop‑in visits, which means your pet stays in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. During each visit, I follow your routines closely—feeding, fresh water, medication, enrichment, and any specific instructions you share. I keep a calm, reassuring presence, make sure doors are locked, and always double‑check your pet’s safety before leaving. My goal is to maintain your pet’s normal rhythm while giving them attentive, reliable care and keeping your home secure.
“Rachel was wonderful! She was friendly, warm, and caring and did a great job watching our two sweet kitties. Great communication and pics sent as well. She will be our go-to moving forward!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my cat, Ivy, received! Summar arrived right on time for the appointment and made sure to keep me updated on how Ivy was doing. The photo she sent of them bonding was all I needed to know that my cat was in great hands—it gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She truly went above and beyond, not only taking excellent care of Ivy but also cleaning her dishes, picking up litter debris, and making sure the cat waste was properly taken care of. Her responsiveness, flexibility, and genuine love for animals were evident in every interaction. If you’re looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter who will treat your pet like their own, I highly recommend booking with Summar! I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”
“Evan is the best! We highly recommend. Our cat was having some digestive issues and Evan went above and beyond. He bathed our cat, wiped him down when needed, brushed him, and cleaned up after him when he had accidents. Evan gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with him again.”
About: I have my own dog & she is the love of my life! Ever since adopting her, I found a passion and deep love for animals! I used to volunteer with CDCK located in DC. Animals have become my passion and I love all animals like they’re my own ❤️ I live with my partner who is more than happy to help take care of your fur baby as well! I work remote so I will have tons of time to care for your pet. My apartment also has a dog park so it has easy and fast access outside. I have my own dog that I’ve had nearly 6 years now. I will treat your dogs like they are my own! I have done extensive research on caring for dogs and have implemented various different things with my dog to improve her quality of life best I can. Whether that’s feeding your dog healthy organic treats or finding different ways to mentally stimulate them! Not only will I take them on walks but I’ll be glad to play some friendly tug of war with them :)
“Victoria, her son and their friend make a reliable team. The drop in visits were at the time agreed upon, they stayed for the full 30 minutes, fed, played with and cleaned up after the dogs. I’m very satisfied with their care.”
“Jesica has always been great during our repeat bookings to check in on our two cats. This last trip we didn’t set up one automatic feeder properly, and Jesica tried her best to troubleshoot. We really appreciate her open communication and great pictures of our cats!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals in my home my whole life, from large dogs to guinea pigs! I have experience taking care of animals with various medical issues, anxious dogs, senior animals, and i’ve volunteered at local animal shelters. No animal too big or small! I’m currently working full time, but I am able to stay overnight and check in on your pet anytime after 3pm. I am available at any time during weekends as well. I take the safety of your animal very seriously. I ask you to please let me know if your animal has any special needs, issues with other animals, anxiety, etc. so that I can provide them with the best and most informed care possible.
“Barbie was wonderful. She took great care of our cat, providing lots of cuddles and even stayed longer than the allotted 30 minutes. Barbie was also very communicative with us so we knew Gus was in the best hands. Would highly recommend Barbie to anyone that needs pet care!”
About: Trusted Friendship Heights walker caring for dogs since age 10. Providing attentive, part-time care tailored to your pup's needs, from energetic puppy to specialized senior dog accommodation. I work remotely from home, which is great for me but even better for your pup! My schedule is super flexible, meaning I’m always ready to pause my screen for some morning or afternoon walkies and playtime. Think of me as your dog's personal remote-work coworker—minus the boring meetings, plus a lot of belly rubs and neighborhood adventures to keep them happy while you're away! Nature walks and social hour! I love taking dogs out to the beautiful parks nearby so they can stretch their legs and explore. If your furry family member thrives with a little extra company, they'll hit the jackpot here—my dog is excellent at making new friends and loves having a buddy for playtime. I customize everything to your dog's pace, ensuring they feel completely safe, loved, and thoroughly entertained.
“Luisa is a lovely person and a compassionate friend to animals! She visited our kitties three times while we were away. Before we left, she made the effort to visit me and the cats to meet them and to review their feeding schedule. When she visited, she shared that she adores animals and that caring for animals is her passion. During her visit, she played with the cats and they were immediately comfortable with her. Each visit, she sent pictures of her playing with the cats and wrote a review of the visit. Luisa is the most wonderful and kind friend to animals. I am so grateful for her kindness to the kitties while I was away. She truly went above and beyond during the visit; I look forward to working together in the future. Thanks again, Luisa!”
“Sydney, I can see how much more comfortable he became throughout the week. It’s sweet. I appreciate that you were available and that you spent the time with him that you did. I appreciate that you were consistent with your arrivals. That is so important. It’s been a sincere pleasure receiving your photos. We wish you a great year in school. Thank you!!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Somerset
Deniz did a great job taking care of my hamster. She had never taken care of a hamster before, but was very willing and excited to learn. She followed my instructions thoroughly and wrote detailed Rover cards. I would definitely trust her with my pets again in the future!
Caden was great and super flexible while pet sitting my three pets on short notice!! My dog is very shy/reactive and he was very accommodating and understanding of what she needed to be introduced. Caden took thorough and kind care of my two cats and one dog, was timely, and kept my apartment in excellent shape. I’ve never seen such a neat litter box!! I’m excited to hire him again.
Thomas was truly incredible as a sitter for my two 10-month old kittens! He was super communicative, attentive to the boys’ kitten energy, and always made sure to send thoughtful updates. My kittens were very happy, playful, and relaxed when I returned from my trip thanks to his care. Thanks so much, Thomas!
Leila was fantastic and took great care of my two cats while I was out of town. She was prompt, professional, and very friendly with the cats. She provided regular updates and did an excellent job with their medications. I appreciated knowing they were in such good hands while I was gone.
Salma was very easy to work with and was so caring and thoughtful with our two cats! She also watered our plants and took care of packages that arrived while we were away. We felt completely comfortable leaving our pets in her care while on an extended trip and would definitely work with her again.
Lakshmi is a great pet sitter! She left detailed notes about her visits every day including photos and details about our cat's temperament and behavior. She was very responsive to messages. Our cat seemed very comfortable with her! Would definitely book again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Somerset on Rover is $32.19 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,842 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Somerset. 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.
