Andrew is absolutely incredible!! We had to go out of town last minute and needed someone for our big rescue who still needs lots of training and care. His experience and general knowledge with all types of breeds made me feel so comfortable leaving our Millie in his care. He left great updates for every visit and ensured that she got good exercise and kept to her more recent training. Andrew will definitely be our go-to and on call guy for all stop ins and walks!

We had a walkaround the house with Rochelle. Rochelle was attentive and took lots of pictures. You can tell that she takes the care of our pups and the house very seriously. After learning the house, Rochelle observed the correct food portions and fed the pups. She is so loving to the pups.

TOP ENDORSEMENT: Pet care is Kimberly's career. This dedication & training are evident in her professional in-person demeanor and ease with animals. Kimberly sat my two male, semi-feral cats for a week and I couldn't be happier with her care. Food, water, and litterbox cleaning was EXACTLY as I asked. The aloof, don't-touch-me cat now adores her. She was even kind enough to water my money tree and stack my mail. Her expertise and depth of experience enabled me to travel completely WORRY FREE. Highly recommend!

Randi went above and beyond to make sure our animals were taken care of. She even voluntarily took home a chick that could not walk and fixed it's leg so it can get around on its own now. She also watered our plants and brought in mail while we were gone. She seems to know a lot about dogs and is a wealth of info on chickens, as well. Some of my chickens were not doing so well and thanks to her advice, they are looking healthier. I'd highly recommend her.

April is a pro at this job! She thinks ahead while I-the cat owner - am worried about last minutes things to pack 😊. We had a great meet and greet which made me confident about the care our cat needs. All went smoothly and perfectly at home while we were away. April sent pictures and comments at every visit 🙏

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—seriously, rabbits to goats, and everything in between. Right now I care for dogs, chickens, rabbits, and a cat, and I also have experience pet sitting for families from when I was in high school. In my 20s, I’m excited to help other animal owners get to enjoy a vacation or even a little break like a date night, without having to worry. My love for animals really shows, and I’m totally comfortable with both big dogs and smaller ones—I’m happy to care for every breed. I’m willing to have animals stay at my home, but they absolutely need to be comfortable around other animals. I can also drive to your place and stay at your home if that’s what you prefer. I work from home, so I’m available as often as you need me, and if you need me to stay overnight to watch your furry friend, I can definitely arrange that. With all that said, I’m excited to help in any way I can—because I genuinely love what I do! I’m currently working from home as a Sales Executive at a HR company. I take my pups out every 2 hours for potty breaks and to throw the ball for my very active GSD dog. I get off around 5:30PM M-F. So if you need me to stay at your home to watch your pets while I work throughout the day- that’s no problem! Or I can most definitely take breaks throughout the day to come take your animal out and/or just give some snuggles! I am free on the weekends and can make really anything work. Just give me a time and place and I’ll be there! I have a huge back yard and plenty of space for your dog to run around! It is not fenced, so must have good recall or I can just walk them on a leash. If your dog is coming over to my house they must be good with other animals. I have a male Belgian tervuren (fixed) who’s pretty shy at first, but warms up quickly and would love a play buddy! And then I have a male Dachshund (fixed) who sleeps all day. I do crate my dogs while I’m away, and they can be crated just to give your pet some space to decompress. My cat is in a separate room so she will be away as well.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Dogs have always been part of my life—I grew up with a childhood dog and currently have one of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. In addition to my personal experience, I’m actively involved in a UKC club and am a certified judge, which has given me a strong understanding of dog behavior, structure, and temperament. Working with dogs in this environment has helped me develop patience, observation skills, and the ability to read dogs’ needs and body language. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits, and my goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, playtime, or just some company and care, I treat every dog like they’re my own. You can count on me to provide reliable, attentive care and regular updates, so you’ll always know your pup is in good hands! I currently work in a after school program as a music teacher, as well as taking care of my own dog. I am free, and capable to help anyone out from 7am - 1pm making sure that their own pet is looked after while they are away. I care for pets in their home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide safe walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention so your dog feels comfortable while you’re away.

Victoria has been our regular petsitter while we work. Our Cavalier, Louie, loves her! She is great with our dog, and has excellent communication with me. Victoria is always flexible if changes in our weekly schedule occur. She always informs me if something comes up and we need to adjust the days she pet-sits Louie. Victoria has such a special way with animals. I highly recommend her.

About: I’ve always been an animal person. Technically I have worked with animals since I was 9ish years old. To this day, I am a vet assistant. I have knowledge and experience doing nail trims, baths, groom paws on pets. I can feed and walk your pets. I have the ability to take care of vet assistant related issues. :) I am currently a vet assistant, but limited my hours due to my kids being in school. I am here to provide walks and happiness during play time for your pups! Free majority of the time, especially when my kids are at school. Open with availability, ask and we can make it work! :) If there are specifics or meds, I follow the routines of the owners. For my pets, they are on set schedules. I have two kittens myself; they have a morning feeding and a night feeding, but I can make their feedings fit into my clients routines.

About: I’m a healthcare worker who loves pets! We had 2 Shetland sheepdogs growing up. I have raised 2 chihuahua puppies, and one needed multiple eye surgeries and follow up care. I have consistently sat for and walked friends dogs (multiple at a time). I have taken in a neighbors cats for months after an emergent situation, and my family members have cats a well. No pet too big or too small! I love them all :) I am currently working part time 2-4 days a week so I will have a lot of time to care for your pets! On my off days I’m available any time, especially day time. I can meet your pet care needs! At home we have an open field but also a fenced in area and two small dogs which can play or be separate. I can follow your schedule as far as potty and walks and am able to walk long distances and play! I know some kiddos can be picky eaters like mine so I will happily embrace your pets quirks! No request is too strange and I will not have any problem respecting you or your pets routine.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs ever since I was the age of six and I have a great way and love with them . My schedule varies weekly as I have a college retention student job and I get off pretty late but I’m very flexible. I can always work around getting your pet taken care of! I care for them with love and with their necessities as needed on a daily bases whether it’s taking them out for a walk twice a day or feeding them twice a day as well or any extra care like giving them their meds as needed as well.

Alexia was great! I had a last minute switch up in my schedule and she as able to accommodate. Additionally, she was very quick to respond and communicate with me if she had a change in her schedule as well. She sent me lots of pictures and followed all of my instructions perfectly. Would definitely recommend her as a sitter and will be contacting her again :).

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I have cared for them when they have been at there very best and worst and given them the most love. I’m currently a senior in high school but I only go for a couple hours a day. I also work part time at before and after care. I’m mostly looking for times to fill in during my free time, including during break and over the summer. I will make sure that everything thing is safe in the area for that pet. And they have everything they need during my time with them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 690 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sparta. 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 Sparta. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
