About: Hi! I'm Samantha, and I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet while you're away. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, and my goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable from the very beginning. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and attentive to routines and individual needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I'll provide patient, loving care tailored to them. I'm committed to treating every pet as if they were my own and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I look forward to getting to know what makes your pet special. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important consistency is, so I do my best to follow each pet's normal routine and any instructions you provide. Whether your pet enjoys being active or simply relaxing with company nearby, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I focus on providing reliable, attentive care through drop-in visits and walks while helping pets stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. Before each visit, I take the time to learn your pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions so I can provide consistent care. During each visit, I'll make sure your pet has fresh water, potty breaks, exercise or playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be dependable and accommodate a variety of visit times throughout the day. I know it's not always easy to leave your pet, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages after each visit to give you peace of mind while you're away.

Natalia was so incredibly nice. She’s was a great communicator. She took great care of Arya and even noticed it was trash day on one of the days she was there so she took my trash can to the curb. HIGHLY recommend.

About: I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy the everyday rhythms of pet care—feeding, walks, playtime, litter care, and quiet companionship. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality, boundaries, and routines. I understand that pets can have very different needs—some are energetic and social, others are shy, sensitive, or independent. I’m calm, observant, and gentle in my approach, and I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I offer pet care during the times I’m not with my son, which means when I’m booked, your pet has my full attention. I plan my availability carefully and only accept visits I know I can show up for consistently and on time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and mindful of each pet’s environment, routines, and signals. I take care to follow instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, respectful presence in your home. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every home with respect, communicate clearly, and approach each visit with patience and care so your pet feels safe and at ease.

Veronica was great with our 2 cats, who are semi-feral (brought in from outside). We were unsure of how they'd do with a stranger and it went more than smoothly. Veronica communicated well and got great pictures of both kids, who didn't skip a beat once we got home. They've remained well behaved and calm, and have adjusted very quickly after us being away. Veronica is professional and took very good care of our kids. Will book again next time we're in need.

About: I have years of pet care experience! I have spent my life wanting to make dog parents' lives easier.

I also have experience in puppies, older gems and those who may be considered "difficult". I am here to make your life easier when you have to leave your pet. We all know it isn't fun to leave them, but I am here to ease your mind! I will make sure your pet is at ease while their human is gone! I can't replace you, but I will make it more bearable! I am more than happy to stay overnight with your pet! I can make time for morning, midday (depending on location) and evening potty breaks! I will come to your house so that your pet feels secure and comfortable in their own home. Unless you request that I bring them into my house, I usually like to keep them in their normal routine and place!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - South Gastonia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in South Gastonia on Rover is $18.87 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 2,319 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South Gastonia. 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 South Gastonia. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
