“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my two cats, Shadow and Luna, in the care of a sitter. Meegan was terrific and took excellent care of my furry babies, sending me regular updates and photos. She did two drop-in visits per day for 6 days. When Meegan came for our first meet and greet, Luna who is normally timid came right out to say hello. On the second meet and greet, Luna plopped down and offered up her belly for a rub, which I took as an excellent sign! Meegan remembered every Instructions I gave from one meet and greet visit to the next, and asked probing questions to make sure she knew all she needed to care for my cats. When I got home from my trip, the two litter boxes had visibly been scooped and refilled, the water bowls were filled, and my cats seemed happy and content with no indication of separation anxiety. Meegan is punctual, professional, friendly and obviously an animal lover. I would absolutely use her services again, and highly recommend her. Rover also made it very easy to communicate.”
“Meghan did an amazing job checking in on our cat while we were away! She was professional, kept our house clean, and most importantly, our cat was happy and comfortable. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Emily is sweet and loving. She clearly loves animals and our two pups love her. Emily is dependable and prompt and quickly responds. We are planning to have her back on regular schedule.”
About: I have taken care of multiple relatives dogs for as long as I can remember. I was responsible for feeding them (whether it was regular dog food or a special concoction), taking them out for walks, giving them pets and taking them to the park. I have mainly taken care of older dogs, but they were big and energetic! I also have grown up with a cats, Guinea pigs, fish and hermit crabs at one point! I’m currently a full time college student, but I have room in my schedule to take care of your animals and give them all the love and play they need! Growing up with animals, I am very receptive on how to take care of them. I have dog sat for multiple people and I have had cats my whole life! I will make sure your pet is comforted and well cared for in your home and I will make sure no harm comes to your animal or house.
About: I bond with pets quickly-they sense my fondness for them and I pay attention to the little things, so I sense what they need to be happy. I am working part-time, so I fortunately get to make my own schedule! I can be flexible with what your specific pet needs are. I always go the extra mile because I enjoy animals so much. We have 2.5 acres of land mostly yard and partially woods with walking trails all over. We have a super friendly and playful 2.5 year old neutered Frenchton named Gus who is 40 pounds and enjoys any and all company! We got our puppy Louie in April 2023. He is an adorable almost 1 year old French Bulldog. Our 2 cats are pretty shy of other humans and pets outside of their family-but they love a good petting and join us on walks! We also have chickens for eggs-but they are outside and safely caged. We spend as much time as possible outside enjoying nature and our pets happily join us!
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and amphibians, so I’m comfortable with animals of all kinds. I’ve also been volunteering at an animal shelter for 1 year, so I know how to read animal behavior and handle the unexpected. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday, so my availability is after 5pm on weekdays and Saturday mornings and afternoons for walks and drop-in pet care. I follow your pet's routine to a T and send regular photo and video updates so you're never out of the loop. If I notice any changes in behavior I'll let you know right away. I'll leave your home exactly as I found it, follow any house rules you set, and always make sure gates and doors are secured so no one makes a sneaky escape.

In clients' homes, I follow routines closely, provide feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and ensure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free throughout there care.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets for years. Even the shyest of animals end up loving me! I gave my dog the best 13 years he could ever have, and I want to share my love and kindness with other pets while alleviating duties from busy owners. I am a junior at Florida Institute of Technology studying Forensic Psychology and minoring in PreLaw with a light workload, as I am finishing up my time in college. Caring for pets would drastically increase my happiness and improve my quality of life, give the animals necessary exercise, fresh air, and extra love/attention, and help busy owners tend to their duties and relieve their stress. I have a decent living space in my pet-friendly apartment with backyard greenery and a cozy room for them to rest if the animals need.
About: I'm here to take the stress off your shoulders. As an animal lover, I’m dedicated to providing your pets with the best care possible. From long walks and fun playtime to plenty of good ol' fashioned love, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I have had a dog since I was 11 and I have taken care of many dogs of various sizes and demeanors. I am free most days of the week as I have classes at night. I would love to use this time to take care of a loving animal. I make it a priority to get to know the animal and make sure there is a sense of trust. I want to ensure that both your animal and I are able to get along well. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and playing with them in the yard.
“This is the second year we have had Rhonda care for our cat while we were on vacation. She has been absolutely wonderful. Our cat is very wary of strangers and within a day or so, had Dancer allowing her to pet and brush him! Would definitely reccomend!”
About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

“Wonderful experience - we had to rush out of town twice because of an elderly parent’s health. Samantha was there for us both times even though it was short notice. She saw to our cats needs and even helped out with an issue with unplugging a machine that was left running. Wonderful lady!!!”
About: I currently own two dogs a mini Australian Shepard and a cocker spaniel. But, my family is a huge dog loving family and I have also owned labs, retrievers, and collies. I have a fenced backyard with a doggy door that holds about an acre of land and I live on a very quiet road with hiking trails across from my house that I bring my dogs into all the time! I’m work 3 times a week at Ridgewood Country Club in Danbury. I can leave during my breaks to tend to your pets. If they are staying at my home I have a doggy door and fenced in backyard. And then the remainder of the week I am free! I have a doggy door inside my home with a fenced in backyard for the 3 days I can’t be at home all day long. All other days I would love to take the dogs hiking and make sure they have a great time! I do own two dogs that are very friendly. But they can also be seperated into my basement if other dog is not friends with them. I also have a lot of experience with cat sitting my neighbors cats.
“Happy to have found Jessie to watch our cats while we were out of town! She did an excellent job making sure they were well fed and hydrated and kept us posted with visit updates and didn't hesitate to ask questions. Would absolutely book her again for future visits.”
About: I’ve taken care of many cats and dogs from when I was a young child. We rescued a few stray cats and dogs who grew to become our beloved family pets. I’m an administrative professional who during the week works 40 hours in the medical industry and would enjoy caring for your pets in their familiar surroundings. This additional line of work helps support my child’s secondary education, and satisfies my love in caring for animals. I look forward to meeting your feline and/or canine family members and care for them at their dwelling. It’s traumatizing enough missing their owners who need to travel, being placed in an unfamiliar location can disrupt their routine and cause unnecessary stress. Thank you for your consideration. I’M ONLY AVAILABLE ON THE WEEKENDS; FRIDAY EVENINGS TO EARLY MONDAY MORNINGS. Due to my primary job, I’m only able to assist on the weekends. I will feed, pet, play, massage, brush, and interact with your pet as if it were my own. Pets deserve quality care for their unconditional love. A few things I adhere to is avoiding all dog parks. Canines may behave differently when their owners are away and I don’t want any pet to get injured. I prefer to stay on the owners property to keep everyone safe.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South Kent
Meegan went above and beyond helping me with the cats and even put seed in the feeders for the birds and even looked out for the wild lame turkey that I have been feeding for the past five years. I would recommend her highly to anyone who needs someone to take care of her animals. She's friendly, reliable, and extremely helpful.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 852 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South Kent. 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 Kent. On Rover:
- 95% 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.
