“Jenn was fabulous. The daily updates were wonderful, since we have 3 cats, each with very different needs. Each got what they needed, from the literal scaredy-cat who had treats left for her to find after visit to the high energy guy who needed daily play and scratches. Highly recommend! Will be using again!”

“Sydney is an amazing person and a great cat sitter. She's genuine, honest, responsive, and super thorough. Not only did she look after Moose, but she played with him, gave him attention, and really cared for him. He wasn't feeling great one night, so she stayed up with him until he fell asleep. When I got home, she had cleaned the litter area, changed the sheets, and washed the bedding. Five stars for Sydney!”

About: I’ve had many opportunities to work with and sit for multiple different types of pups/dogs as well as kittens/cats. I enjoy seeing the personalities of each that makes them unique to their breed and how they were raised. I currently work out of the home Monday-Thursday leaving room for love, play, and walks in the evening and early morning with a possibility of mid day check ins. I often house/pet sit out of my home at the location the pet lives so they are in the comfort of their own environment, however have provided space at my home in the past. Regular feedings per the request of the owner. Regular walks, play, belly rubs, and scratches. I prefer fenced yards and do have a small fenced in back yard.

About: Hi! My name is Ava. I grew up with dogs all my life and have fostered dogs as well. I also have experience with other animals through fostering (cats, birds, and bunnies). I have fear-free shelter certificates in dog behavior / dog training. As well as years of experience in volunteering at Meridian Canine Rescue. I can train puppies or younger dogs, help with senior dog care, and I have experience with administering medications or helping with dogs with healthcare issues. I have also worked with dogs with behavioral complications in the past that may require more in-depth first-meetings to ensure the dogs are comfortable around me. I am a full-time college student at Boise State University. During my school days (Tuesday/Thursday), I am open to help with whatever is needed after my class times end. On Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I am typically completely open. If you are interested, then I will send over my schedule to see if it works with you! I have years of experience with dog enrichment, to ensure that your dogs are as happy as can be! I am also open to taking your dogs on walks as often as needed in their routine! Several of my past clients have several dogs, so I am used to walking and taking care of several dogs at the same time. I enjoy providing enrichment and fun training to ensure a healthy and fun environment for your dog. I will also help with whatever dog training that my clients will want help with- I have experience with different training fields, like training dogs to behave well in car rides or to have good walking manners.

About: For more than 40 years, I’ve loved and cared for dogs and cats of my own. After my last Boxer passed away in 2022, I found a new way to share that love by caring for—and spoiling—the pets of others. I’ve provided excellent pet- and housesitting services on TrustedHousesitters in the Boise area for the past year, earning 20 five-star reviews. Many of my sits have been with repeat hosts, which reflects the trust and dependable care I provide. My experience includes dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and even beetles. Before moving to Boise, I spent 14 years fostering dogs and providing pet-sitting services in the Atlanta area. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to follow instructions carefully while providing plenty of attention, patience, playtime, and affection. For the past 20 years, I’ve worked as a project manager in the technology industry. As I transition into a more personally fulfilling career, I’m excited to devote more time to animals and give your pets the same thoughtful, reliable care I would want for my own. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and thoroughly spoiled while you’re away. I currently work full-time as a pet sitter, so caring for pets is my primary focus. I’m able to organize my schedule around each client’s needs and your pet’s established routine. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and overnight stays. I offer flexible availability throughout the day and night, including 24/7 overnight care, and I’ll work with you to create a dependable schedule that helps your pet feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, with a strong focus on safety, trust, and consistency. I carefully follow your instructions and make sure your pet’s individual needs, routines, feeding schedules, medications, and preferences are respected. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home, taking them on a walk, or enjoying outdoor exercise together, I remain attentive to their surroundings and comfort. I take safety precautions during every visit and activity so your pet can feel secure and relaxed in your absence. You can count on me to provide dependable, thoughtful care while treating your home and your pet with the same respect I would expect for my own.

“First time meeting Beverly was amazing. Our cat Bella is very shy. Bella came out while we were talking and was looking at Bev, taking it all in. It was such a comfort to have Bev here with Bella. I was more relaxed knowing Bella wasn't alone. The house was immaculate. Bella's bathroom was clean. Beverly is just a wonderful and caring woman. She is a keeper. My husband and I highly recommend Beverly.”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was 12, I have experience training, raising, and cleaning after cats, dogs and rabbits. Family and Friends have told me I am good with animals. I know how to play with, clean up after and feed dogs, cats and even rabbits. I am currently doing part time work at home, but have plenty of time to give love, watch, feed your pets at morning and night, clean after if any accidents happen and play with your pets. I have a fence yard, and another small dog, so your pets won't feel lonely but have plenty space to move around. Were super close to a park for safe walking, and playing. My home is small but fairly big enough and spacious. My room, and living room is big enough for around three to four animals to sleep in. I share some roommates. So they won't get too lonely and they are good people around animals, I don't leave the house unattended for too long. They can sleep on the floor or with in bed, or in there crate if needed, or preferred.

About: Hi I’m Madison! I love animals and have dog sat on multiple occasions for elderly and young dogs. I’d love to take care of your animals in exchange for the happiness I’ll get from walking and interacting with them! I have pretty open availability at the moment. I can pop in a couple times during the week or stay longer if needed. I do have animals at home so extended days will need to be talked about. I would love to take your dog to a dog park or a nearby trail to get some extra energy out during my stay if wanted!

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have 2 myself right now. I understand the difficulties that we sacrifice for having dogs such as going on vacation when you can’t bring them or having long work days where you can’t come home. If I can be that person who relieves dog owners that worry and stress I would love to help! I have dogs who have to take pills along with other medication so I am skilled in that. I work with dogs all ages and sizes and hope to make more fun memories with these furry friends! I currently have a part-time job! But I will be able to work around my work schedule and get you in and I will make sure you know if there are any changes! I want to get to know your dogs before you end up taking your trip as it’s always best the dog knows who I am before I randomly jump in to take care of them. I can help medication if your furry friend is a senior or any age. I have had puppies in the past and know who to do basic training along with crating services all I need is a crate! I will spend a whole bunch of cuddle time and play time with your furry friend and send a whole bunch of pictures and videos if you want, so you know their getting cared for properly.

About: I've never had a dog myself but I love being around them! I've helped take care of dogs in the family for a few years now! I’m a college student looking to earn some extra side money! That being said I don’t have a completely open schedule but definitely willing to work with you!! I am not offering services that include bringing your pet to my home because I am in circumstances that wouldn't make that very beneficial but I will do everything I can to ensure your babies feel loved!

About: I have had three medium breeds and one small breed throughout my life. I have helped feed, walk, and play with all of them often. I am currently a college student with weekends, and a good amount of time during the week open. Saturday-Tuesday is preferable, other days are negotiable. I care for pets with compassion and patience. I give them as much love and attention as they ask for and respect their needs and space.

Arianna and Trevor did an excellent job caring for our pets. They communicated with us every day and kept us informed about what was going on with the cats. I feel like they went above and beyond for us and I would rebook with them anytime!

We had to book a cat sitter at the last minute while we were in the middle of moving, and she was amazing. Janell came by to check on our cats, fed them and played with them, was very responsive, reliable. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were being cared for during such a stressful time. We really appreciate her help and would definitely book with her again!

Kristen B did a great job with drop-in visits with our senior cat for 5 days. She cleaned litter boxes, and provided canned wet food daily. She checked water. She was responsible, and sent a picture with a comment each day. ☆☆☆☆☆ 🐈😸

Aleisse, Was dependable and is a great communicator with words and pictures. I never had to guess about my cat's care which made traveling so much easier. I would highly recommend Aleisse as a cat sitter. My cat seemed to look forward to Aleisse's visits and though my cat was quite happy to have her human (me 😃) back home, she was at peace when I returned. Thank you Aleisse!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Star

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Star is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $27 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 683 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Star. 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 Star. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
