“Lyndsay was great! This was our first time trusting someone who isn’t family to care for our cat Jose. We were a little nervous, and after the first drop in visit we completely relaxed. Jose is shy, but sweet and was comfortable with her immediately. Lyndsay sent photos and a report at each visit, she’s very fast to respond to messages. It couldn’t have gone smoother When we need a sitter again we will be reaching out to book Lyndsay.”

“Zayna did a great job house sitting and taking care of my three cats, one who is elderly with special needs (special diet and medication). She sent pictures every day and was very flexible in dealing with each cat’s somewhat independent schedule! Thanks Zayna!”

About: Hi, my name is Oksana, I'm an animal lover and i would take them all in. I'm ready to care for your pups and give them what they need. I have taken care of pups from st.

About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes, and I wouldn't have it any other way! Animals naturally gravitate toward my calm, patient energy, and I treat every guest like a member of my own family. What truly sets me apart is my experience with specialized and complex care. I am the proud owner of a high-energy Tamaskan dog, so I completely thrive with active, high-energy breeds. I love taking dogs on long walks, structured dog park adventures, public socialization outings, and even handling bath trips! Additionally, growing up on a property with racehorses taught me a deep love, respect, and safety-first mindset for large animals. I have also raised over 15 chickens and roosters. Whether you have an athletic pup who needs an intense workout, a multi-pet household, or livestock that need exact farm routines followed, I bring a lifetime of versatile, trustworthy experience to your extended furry family. My schedule is highly adaptable, allowing me to fully commit to your pet's exact daily routine! Because pet care is my primary focus, I have plenty of time throughout the day for active dog walks, park trips, and dedicated drop-in visits. For boarding and overnight care, your pet will receive constant supervision and companionship. I structure my days around the needs of the animals in my care, ensuring that high-energy breeds get their necessary exercise and senior pets stay perfectly on track with their medication and rest schedules. Safety and peace of mind are my absolute top priorities. Growing up around racehorses instilled a strict safety-first mindset in me from an early age, which I apply to every animal I watch. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, secure, and highly comfortable environment where they are treated just like my own. Because I own a high-energy breed, I am incredibly vigilant about environment control, secure doors, and safe socialization. When caring for pets in your home or managing farm routines, I am extremely detail-oriented. I take the time to meticulously learn your specific setup, gates, security measures, and animal dynamics. I also provide clear, consistent communication and photo updates during every single booking so you can relax knowing your pets and property are in expert, loving hands.

About: Along with always owning animals, I have provided pet sitting services for many family, friends, and coworkers over the years. Not only am I able to ensure pets are well cared for, I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I have also been employed as a field biologist and have experience handling and caring for wild animals. I am always excited to further develop my pet-caring skills! I recently returned from hiking the Appalachian Trail and am looking for some flexible and part-time work to ease my transition back into the work force. I currently have full availability and am eager to meet new pet owners and their furry friends! In addition to pet sitting services, I have also provided house sitting over the years and will treat you and your pets space with consideration and respect. I always try to act casually in a space to help animals feel more comfortable with my presence, while still respecting the boundaries and instructions of pet parents.

About: I grew up on a farm, so I've had experience with a variety of animals, especially dogs! My family has always had at least one dog, all with varying sizes. I've endured it all from the ankle biters, the sweetest pitbulls and border collies, to the greatest of the danes. I'm currently a college student, so my evenings and weekends are free! Being stuck in a classroom gives me the fuel I need to go on a walk with your dog or experience (safe) zoomies with your cat. Summer time is usually great because it means more time outdoors for all of us! I'm currently unable to house your pets, but I can be with them in their favorite place- whether that be your home or on a walk!

Our old cranky kitty loved Melissa which means she’s got a way with animals. She was reliable and made sure the cat food was taken care of and the dishes were clean. I highly recommend her.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Standish

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Standish is $33 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 520 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Standish. 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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Standish. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
