“Sarah did a fantastic job watching our pups while my wife and I were out. She kept us updated the whole time and made sure they were well taken care of. It was clear she gave them plenty of attention and love, and we came home to two happy dogs. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again next time we need someone reliable and caring.”

About: I have rescued several animals over the last two decades. All of them have led happy lives from the moment I scooped them up from their shelter and into a loving home, to the time they passed. My family now includes two lovable, dorky, fur babies that own me. Simon is a friendly, rescued tabby cat and Lucy is a family-inherited mini dachshund dog. Both of my pets get along with other animals without any issues. Me and my husband share the duty of walking, playing, drop-offs and pick-ups. There is ALWAYS someone home when I sit. That makes it safer for everyone, especially the animals I care for. I have a fenced-in backyard for roaming and releasing energy (if the personality permits) but I also take the pups out and about as well for variation and exploration.

I am naturally skilled at providing safe, structured, and loving care for dogs, cats and other pets. I’m detail-oriented, and comfortable handling routines, while still being laid-back. I am confident I can handle you and your pet's needs - whether that means consistent walks, feeding schedules, or special instructions.

Feel free to reach out—I’d love to meet you and your pet. I mostly work from home and I have a flexible schedule so I enjoy my play time with my furry buddies or walks outside as an enjoyable part of my day. I have room indoors and outdoors for playing, a big fenced grassy backyard and a quiet neighborhood to explore for our walks. I can host pets at my house or come visit them at yours.

I also have local vets and Petsmart on speed dial in the unlikely case of emergency. Beyond being qualified though, I truly love spending time with animals and ensuring they are as happy and healthy as can be!

I work remotely, so I'm available pretty much anytime! Please check my calendar for availability prior to requesting services, I'll have it updated when I am unavailable. I promise to treat each pet like their own individual, making sure each one gets the proper love and care they deserve through long walks, scheduled food times, and endless pets!
“Excellent service dependable, punctual, and clearly experienced with dogs. Communication is always prompt, and I feel confident my dog is safe and well cared for. Highly recommended.”
About: Hi! My name’s Selena, and I’m a medical student and lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with both dogs and cats. As a cat owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Every animal has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I offer dog walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats that fit around my class schedule, with availability before or after class and on weekends. I especially enjoy dog walking because it gives dogs the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve while letting me spend time outdoors with them. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive patient, attentive care. Communication is important to me, so you’ll receive updates and photos after every visit. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and any special instructions. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands. I treat every pet as if they were my own and look forward to getting to know you and your furry family member!
“Victoria was fantastic! Not only did she check on both of my cats, as well as being active with refilling things like their water, but she also did some clean up around the house that was absolutely not required. Would absolutely come back to her!”
About: Hello, I’m SirJahad! I have over 11 years of experience caring for cats through both personal ownership and cat sitting for clients, friends, and family. Over the last 2 years, I’ve also gained experience caring for dogs through pet sitting for friends and family members. My experience includes feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly enjoy being around animals and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to provide dependable, patient, and attentive care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs extra comfort. At the end of the day, my goal is for you to return home to a happy pet and feel confident that they received the same care, attention, and respect that I’d want for my own fur babies. Thank you for the opportunity, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Currently working a full time schedule. I clock in at 7:30am & finish between 2:30-3:30pm depending on the week. If you’d like my services anywhere between those times, just need 5 days to a week’s notice prior to booking. Typically free Saturday & Sundays. I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet sitting. During our meet and greet, I ask plenty of questions so I can follow your instructions as closely as possible. I’ll make sure your home remains secure, clean, and respected while you’re away. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing, and I’ll always communicate anything that seems unusual.
“Bracey was absolutely wonderful with our boys! She even took the time to come over for an introductory visit first so they could get to know her. She did wonderfully with Butters, who can be anxious with strangers. I can’t thank her enough for being an excellent dog sitter while we were out of town 🩷 It was a relief knowing our fur babies were in the best hands possible while we were away.”
“This was my first time using Rover and my first time asking someone I don't know to check on my kitties so I was nervous about it. But Alyssa went above and beyond for us. She did a great job and sent us a lot of pictures. She really put my mind at ease while I was on vacation.”
“We had such an amazing experience with Samantha, and we truly couldn’t recommend her more! Not only did she make sure our cats were happy, well-fed, and loved, but she also watered our plants! 🪴 She always included the cutest pictures in her updates which always made us smile! We even came home to printed photos of our cats along with a kind note—it was such a thoughtful and personal gesture that meant a lot to us! 🥹 If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and truly kind, she is absolutely the best. 🙂”

“Hailey was amazing with our dog Luna!! She was able to accommodate our last minute scheduling while we were getting married. Her check ins with pictures and comments made us feel at ease while we were away. She even let Luna play with her dog for companionship!! She gave Luna a supplement too on top of her normal feeding. Thanks Hailey!!! We look forward to seeing you again!”
“Jess took wonderful care of our three pups in our home while we were away. One of our pups has special needs and she was very accommodating to all of his care. We loved receiving updates and photos from each visit. Would highly recommend Jess for your in-home pet sitter needs!”

Jacqueline is an awesome sitter. My kitties were so happy and healthy when we got home. She's great at making sure our cat got his medicine everyday and that they both felt loved. She also did a great job housesitting and making sure my garden survived our time away.

Not only did she make sure our cats were happy, well-fed, and loved, but she also watered our plants! 🪴 She always included the cutest pictures in her updates which always made us smile!

Marley was awesome with my cat! She stopped by every other day and took great care of him, and it was such a relief knowing he was happy and well cared for while I was away. My cat clearly felt comfortable with her, and I really appreciated how reliable and caring Marley was. I’d happily ask her to watch Avery again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great cat sitter! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Stratford on Rover is $9.99 per visit (as of July 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 4,116 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Stratford. 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 Stratford. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
