“I highly recommend Erin! She was wonderful with my kitty Marcella, took the best photos and Marcella was happy and not frazzled when I returned which she has been with other cat sitters! I will definitely be using Erin for all future trips!”
“Mark did an excellent job caring for our two cats. I appreciated his flexibility when I modified the listing. He also checked in to make sure everything was all set before we left for vacation. He sent photos in the app and played well with our kitties. Definitely recommend. Thanks so much!”
“Shea was absolutely wonderful with my cat! She was available last minute and very flexible with her schedule for us. Vuka had a great week with her and I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Rachel is wonderful! It was so clear she was invested in my cat's well-being and prioritized my cat's comfort. Rachel was incredibly communicative and so helpful in introducing my cat to her animals. I would absolutely trust her with my cat again! She sent frequent updates on how my cat was adjusting to being in a new place, including pictures. Thank you for taking such good care of my cat, Rachel!”
“Hannah was great - she checked in daily and always sent us photos. Ralph can take a while to warm up to people but she gave him his time and by the last day he was her pal! She did everything we asked and even picked up the mail and brought a delivered amazon package inside! I would definitely request Hannah’s services again and I highly recommend her to other cat people!!”
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from yorkies to German shepards to Great Danes. I have kept my families dogs at my place while they are on vacation for at least a week. I have experience staying at the owners house to care for pets and also boarding pets in my own home. I’m an active person and a strength athlete, so if your pet is active and needs walks, we will both we getting in our steps together. Active by day, but definitely a couch potato by night! I’m a hybrid 9-5 employee and I work from home on Mondays and Fridays. Depending on my weekend availability, I can board pets in my home for one night or multiple night between Friday and Monday Agreeing to care for your pet means not only treating your pet with love and respect, but also understanding your needs and boundaries with your furry loved one. I will always ensure I understand instructions clearly to deliver the best service possible!
“Samantha was super communicative during our week away. One of our dogs is a senior and I was hesitant to leave her with her mobility issues but Samantha kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. Our dogs did not seem stressed upon our return as they had consistent company with Samantha. I highly recommend her services!”
About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I have a dog of my own who is 10 years old and is disabled. I love dogs a lot. I would like to earn a little extra money on the weekends when I am not working at my full time job during the week. I absolutely love dogs and cats. I am very much an animal person. I will do anything that is needed to keep your animals safe. I have experience with different kinds of care including using electric fences and physical fences and also using leashes outside. I also have experience with disabled dogs.
“Maryann continues to be our favorite cat & house sitter! She gives the kitties lots of love and play time. They love her! She is super communicative and always quick to respond to my messages. We always come home to a house that was cleaner than we’d left it! Highly recommend for all pet & house sitting needs.”
“Jessica was my first Rover experience and I am very happy! She took care of my kitty Milo, fed him and cleaned his littler box. She was very prompt and open to communicate and send pictures everytime she visited. Next time I'm out of town again, she'll be the first one I reach out too :)”
“Elizabeth was great!! It was our first time using her services and we were very pleased. She texted us every day to let us know how our kitties were doing. We would definitely use her services again.”
“Alexandra was reliable and took great care in making sure the cats were taken care of as we discussed. She cleaned everything up nicely very communicative and again in a heartbeat! Thank you!”
About: I've taken care of every kind of animal. Dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters. I've also administered medication of many kinds and I am certified in Domestic cat + dog first Aid and CPR. All animals deserve love and care no matter how big or small! I am currently working part-time during the weekdays and on weekends in the late evening. My weekend available will change to be fully available after October. Either way, your pets are my first priority! Not all of my animals get along- I have an intricate schedule of alternating my cats and dog to make sure there are no fights or stressing factors. But there is always playtime for all the animals!
“Brittany’s amazing and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my cats were in great care! She took the time to go out of her way and stop over for a meet and greet before we left which made me feel at ease. Great communication and sent pictures of our cats snuggling up. One of my cats is shy to warm up to new people but she truly is an animal whisperer and he was laying down right by her feet the second he met her! Thanks Brittany!”
“I had an emergency where i had to go the hospital where i ended up staying for 8 days. Liz was an absolute life saver and stepped in to take care of my fur babies I received updates daily. That helped me so much to relax and be able to heal in the hospital. I came home to healthy happy fur babies. Liz is WONDERFUL with animals. I highly recommend her!!! -Daryl”

Jaclyn is such a kind amazing person and I’m so glad we found her! She really made me feel that my fur babies were in the best hands. She was very detailed on everything. My cats warmed up very quickly to her! Overall just a great experience with her and was very communicative. She even came to my house to meet and understand the routine, pick up our garage button before we left for our trip and closed up the house each day. I would 100% recommend her to anyone! Thank you Jaclyn!
Aiden was wonderful! He completed a drop-in visits for my cat while I was away and provided excellent care. My cat has special needs and requires both oral medication and an inhaler, and Aiden picked up the routine quickly and handled it with ease. I would recommend Aiden and would book with him again!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Southwood Acres on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 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 .

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.
