About: I have raised kittens and puppies. I have trained them to be housebroken and helped our most recent rescue learn to trust and leash walk as an 18 mo. old Beagle. Previously I cared for our senior dog with bladder cancer, giving meds and diapering in his last days. I am a retired teacher who subs, and am also a travel agent. I have flexibility with my schedule to build it around your pet's individual needs. Since I work part time, I am available to take care of your pet's needs and spend extra time as needed. I am able to leash walk, feed, provide water and playtime with your adorable fur babies to give them cognitive stimulation when you are working or away from home.

About: I have taken care of multiple dogs as a kid. I have had a Yorkie, German Shepherd, Chihuahua, Dachshund, and I did have 2 cats at one time but I could not care for them full time so I found them a good home! I currently work a very consistent schedule in the mornings which gives me more than enough time in the afternoon and evening to help with your fur babies! I unfortunately do not have any pets at the moment with me. I do love to care for the neighborhood animals and friends pets when they need it!

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds (furry, feathery, and scaley) since I was 12 years old. I have experience caring for exotics and others in all manners from feeding, walking, playing, training and more! I teach part time so I have time throughout the day to care for the pets I’m caring for and tend to any extra needs they may have. I have a large fenced in yard and two friendly playful dogs who love company. I lead an active life so your pets will have a chance to play and exercise with plenty of time leftover to snuggle and relax! Our almost 2 year old son has always been around dogs and loves to play and snuggle with them too!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years and currently have four dogs of my own, so I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I also have experience caring for a senior dog who has undergone back surgery, which has taught me the importance of patience, careful handling, medication routines, mobility considerations, and paying close attention to changes in behavior. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels and will always treat your pets with the same care, attention, and love I give my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care for your pets. I’m available for boarding and I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s routine, including walks, playtime, feeding, and any special care they may need. I have a fenced yard and four dogs of my own who are friendly and accustomed to being around other dogs. I prioritize safety, supervision, and making sure every pet feels comfortable in my home. I’m also comfortable using crates when needed and will follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions you provide.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 14! I worked at a boarding facility for 3 years back home prior to relocating for college. Before starting at the kennel I helped out my mom (RVT) with pet sitting for about a year in my spare time. While working at the kennel I was trained how to give medication orally and by injection, I am also trained to give insulin as well a fluids. I have no problem monitoring urinary and stool outputs as needed for animals health and safety. I currently have 4 dogs back home who I have helped to train from 8 weeks old to adulthood. While working at the kennel I also learned how to stick to a training schedules owners may have had for younger puppies while they were out of town. I have taken care of senior dogs that may have needed complex or large quantities of medications, as well as helping them move around as they need or if they have a waist support sling. Lastly I am trained in minor post operation care such as putting antibiotic ointment on an incision site and replacing the dressing covering it, as well as making sure they can’t lick or scratch at their incision site. I have been wanting to get back into animal care for a while now and I’m so glad I’ll get to know and help to care for more animals! I am a student athlete in the graduate program, our practices anre from 1-2pm on Monday and Thursday as well as 4-6 Monday-Friday. During the week I have availability in between classes to stop by and let out animals for a little and play with them a bit. I did a similar thing in high school as I was a student athlete then too and pet sitting as well as working at the kennel so I have gotten really good at time management! At my home and at my clients homes I feel that it is important to spend time with the animals and keep them company. I feel it is also important to keep up with training and potty schedules so it can be as close to their routine as possible for the animals so they don’t pick up and bad habits while their owners can’t be with them. At my house we play with our dogs a lot because most of them are playful, but we have one dog that is older and she doesn’t like to play as much as just take naps and get good scratches behind her ears. I believe that it is important to understand what the animals thinks is fun and what they want to do. If they want to play fetch and they can then it’s important to let them have that fun time, however if they would prefer to nap and get good cuddles then it’s important to give them that as well. Lastly I believe that while at a clients house it is important to leave all parts to the house looking as clean, if not cleaner then when you got there, as that is what I would want for my household as well.

“I can't say enough good things about Bree! Leaving my cat is always stressful, especially since she needs medication twice a day. But Bree was absolutely amazing. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease. While I was away, Bree sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Piper's well-being. More importantly, she administered Piper's medication perfectly, without any issues. I highly recommend bree to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced cat sitter. She went above and beyond, and I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Growing up, I had dogs, cats, a pig, and a variety of small animals, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. For more than 20 years, I've provided pet and house sitting for friends and family, caring for everything from farm animals to energetic puppies, senior pets, and cats. I'm comfortable with pets who have special needs and have experience administering medications, including oral medications, allergy injections, and insulin shots. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, drop-in visits, or overnight in-home care, I can accommodate a variety of schedules while making sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care. When you're away, I'll treat your pets and your home with the same respect, patience, and love that I would my own. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home full time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable drop in visits, midday walks, and in home pet sitting throughout the week. Because I work remotely, I'm able to be flexible with visit times and can give your pets the attention and companionship they deserve. While I don't offer boarding, I'm happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel most secure. Your pet's safety and well being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to follow your care instructions closely. Whether it's administering medications (if needed), maintaining feeding schedules, reinforcing training, or simply providing a calm and reassuring presence, I strive to make your pet feel safe and cared for. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I absolutely love animals, and with over 30 years of experience living alongside pets, I naturally tune into their unique personalities, body language, and routines! As a high-energy runner and big walker, I’m the perfect match for keeping active pups happy and hitting their exercise goals, while my decades of sharing spaces with animals mean I’m equally great at giving sweet kitties the calm companion care and independent space they thrive on. Whether your pet is an energetic workout buddy or a quiet lounger, I bring tons of love, care, and reliable live-in companionship to make them feel safe, active, and completely pampered! I work part time from home on my own schedule, easy to fit in your fur baby’s early morning, mid day or late night needs! When staying at your place, I focus on keeping your pets exact routine, boundaries, and energy levels intact. As a runner and big walker, I love tailoring our days to hit your dog's exercise goals, whether that's a fun jog or a casual stroll around the neighborhood. Decades of living with canine and feline roommates mean I effortlessly adapt to their feeding schedules and unique quirks, giving them plenty of love and live-in companionship right where they’re most comfortable.

About: Hi, my names Mary, & I have experiences with pets that I used to own before. I’ve had a lot of cats growing up, a bunch, I’ve nurtured them when they were kittens, till they become beautiful cats. I’ve even given them away to people that needed a friendly pet & beat friend would bring them into their family. They’re really cute, & it’s nice to to be able to take care of cats because the all have their own personality that you can’t really ignore. Ones crazy while another ones mostly shy and etcs. So at the end of the day they really do become your family. Dogs are lovely as well they also have their own personality they’re definitely quirky. Whenever you need a sitter or to walk your dog just book me. I love both animals & all. I have time to watch your lovely animals, cats, dogs etcs. Going forward I’ll actively be available, so just watch out for me! Book me when you want! I’ll talk with my clients about how they do things around their house & follow their rules. It’s important to not get out line since every animal is different so following my clients tips, & rules make watching their cute pets go smoothy!

“We had a great experience with Hilary! Communication was excellent, and she sent plenty of pictures and updates during both drop-in visits. Our cats came out, played with her, and seemed calm and at ease when we returned home. She followed all of our instructions and even brought her own bag of toys for them to enjoy, which was such a nice touch. We also really appreciated being able to meet her beforehand so she could meet the cats, which made us feel even more comfortable leaving them in her care. Hilary is very friendly, dependable, and you can tell she genuinely enjoys caring for animals. We would absolutely book with her again!”

Amanda provided exceptional service with patience and excellent communication. She cared for my turtle at the last minute, which is an unorthodox request . There were some communication issues as I was on the other side of the world and unfortunately could not be reached via phone call, but we were able to get everything done via text.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Stanley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Stanley is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $22 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 November 2026, there are 743 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Stanley. 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
