“EJ has been great with my dog. She is very reliable and always informs me about how the visit went with a photo! She is there to take care of my dog but also pays mind to my other animals (5 cats) and treats them all so well. I would highly recommend EJ for services and she has continued to come to my house on a regular basis. She has followed my instructions (when occasionally provided) and has taken care of my puppy well! I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Adriana was WONDERFUL. I was nervous leaving four shy cats and a 14 year old dog for three days, but she put my mind at ease by being on time, sending informative rover cards, and providing great care (even to the one cat who’s SO shy she never even saw him.) You’ve got to be good to care for an invisible cat but she did it!”
“Everything I needed and then some! Surely she has a natural touch, and when it comes to animals that don’t have their main humans with them, that is essential. When you leave home, all you need is a little faith ❤️”
“This is the second time we had Melanie take care of our four cats - she gets a 16 (out of 16) paws up from the 4 cats! We came home to very clean food bowls and litter boxes. Food was also left organized! She had great communication. She even accommodated a special diet and feeding cats in two locations. Will use again! Top ratings for Melanie!”
About: My dad taught me at a young age how to care for, and respect all animals. I have turned this into a life long love for all animals, both domestic and wild. I am a vet assistant, and currently studying to be a certified vet tech. For the last two years I have worked at the local animal shelter, and for the last year, at a dog daycare as well. I have volunteered at Dakin for the best part of the last 15 years. This has included transportation of animals, dog walking, animal socialization, and the kitten ICU. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time for your furry family members. I am available during the week, on weekends, and holidays. Whether your dog likes the dog park, or playing in the backyard, we can play using their favorite toys. If they are more of a couch potato, I can accommodate them as well. If you have kitties that need company, we can play in the house, or go out for a stroller ride. I have a fenced in backyard for the dogs to play in. In the summer, a pool and water sprinkler will be available. I am a vet assistant, so I have first aid training for both dogs and cats. My house is air conditioned, perfect for relaxing on a summer day.
“We were very pleased to have Erin look after our cats while we were on vacation. She took excellent care of our kitties and was very reliable and caring. The regular updates and photos from her drop in visits were reassuring and very much appreciated. We will be rebooking with Erin in the future!”
“She was by far the best care taker we have used on rover. She took our drop in at the last minute and stayed the entire visit, was extremely attentive to the dogs, was clear with her communication and understanding our needs and did exactly as we asked. She even went above and beyond getting the dogs back in as they were being a little apprehensive about going back inside. Would HIGHLY recommend and will definitely be using again.”
“Deborah provided excellent consistent service to check in on my 2 cats while I was on vacation for a weeks. Deborah provided great communication and detail about each visit. I will look forward to booking her in the future. Thanks”
“Rylie has pet sat our cats and walked our dog several times and she always does an excellent job. She's responsible, responsive, and detail-oriented. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“This is the first time we used Heather to take care of our 13 1/2 year old goldendoodle, Mollie. She was awesome and Mollie loved her. Heather was quick to respond to our text and also sent pictures of her visit with our pup. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”
About: As a certified and insured pet sitter I am qualified to care for a variety of pets. I am a calm and nurturing which helps me to gain animals' trust. I have had a lot of experience with shy or feral cats. As a pet owner of a severely asthmatic cat, I am adept at giving medications, such as pills and inhalers. I am a special education teacher and am off for the summer. I am also available after school and on weekends to do visits or pet sitting. I prefer to care for pets in their own home so that they are more comfortable and less stressed. I can do check-in or longer visits.

“Alyssa was wonderful!! Our 2 dogs, Miller, Maggie and our cat Charlie loved her. This was our 1st time having someone take care of them and Alyssa was dependable, calm and caring! Our long weekend was more enjoyable because we didn't have to worry at all. Getting pictures after every visit, of them happy, was perfect!! We had a great experience, thank you Alyssa!!!”
“Ace was wonderful with our kitty. Attentive, caring, and communicated a lot along the way. Didn’t shy away from having to give him insulin. I would absolutely use them again for cat sitting!”

We have had Melanie take care of our cats multiple times! She is kind, reliable, & the cats like her! The house always looks great when we return, cat litter taken care of, fresh water out for the babies & they seem happy and relaxed. What more can you ask for in a sitter? Highly recommend.
Adriana was WONDERFUL.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Southwick on Rover is $17.44 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 998 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Southwick. 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 Southwick. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
