“Ella was amazing with my pup! Ella does check in’s for me while I’m at work and my dog is not the easiest to handle sometimes. She is scared of everything and does not cooperate with new people without me around but Ella was so patient and got my dog to love and trust her quickly! By the third day my dog was running around the yard with her and eating all her food. When I go to the office I know my dog is in good hands and I don’t have to worry. Ella is a great dog sitter and truly cares for the dogs she is watching.”

“Jenniffer was wonderful and took amazing care of my three kitties! She was very diligent in giving Clyde his medicine every day, even when he wasn’t very cooperative. She took care of everything, played with them, and treated them like they were her own. She sent lots of pictures and videos, communicated with me every day, and even let me know when the house got chilly so we could turn on the heat. I can’t recommend her highly enough, and I know they will be in great hands the next time we go away!”

“Kamryn was great! This was our first time ever hiring a pet sitter for our two cats and fish. She made us feel comfortable, took pics of them and kept us updated daily while we were away. I knew my babies were getting what they needed each day and it gave me peace of mind. She was also super sweet and professional and fast responding!”

About: Hello! Im Alissa :) I am a huge animal lover that can’t wait to help you with you and your pets needs! I have cared for and loved many animals from dogs to cats, reptiles, rodents and more ! I’m looking forward to getting to know your little companions unique personality and funny quirks but most importantly making sure they feel comfortable and safe. Since I was a little girl I looked for anyway to take care of animals, for instants, while my sister was in cheer practice I was going around asking if people wanted me to watch, walk or play with their dog and was very successful lol. Growing up I mostly stayed helping only friends and family with pet sitting but now I think it’s time to help others! Through the years I’ve had dogs, cats, rats, hermit crabs, snakes, geckos and much more. My goal in life is to have a farm or a rescue so I can care for many animals and make sure they all get to experience the wonderful life they deserve. I’m looking forward to becoming a trusted friend to both you and your four legged companion! I am currently in school to become a dental hygienist and my school hours did not align with the required hours for my job. Therefore I am looking for a new opportunity with more of a flexible schedule and I’d love to give my open time to care for your little companions :) I am enrolled in a weekend program so I am more available on the weekdays with a few hours on the weekends! Your pets’ safety, comfort and trust will always be my top priority! I unfortunately do not offer boarding in my own home since I live with my grandma and have animals of my own. I want to make sure everyone stays safe and comfortable. However, I’m more than happy to stay in your home, where your little companions are already familiar with their surroundings and can feel most relaxed. I’m also big on sending plenty of pictures, videos and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your babies are happy, safe, and getting lots of love while you’re away!

About: As a lifelong pet owner with years of hands-on experience, I know how much your furry family members mean to you. I specialize in creating a calm, loving environment, especially for dogs and cats who get a little nervous or anxious. Whether it's a leisurely walk or a cozy day of companionship, your pet will feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I treat every animal like my own, because that's the only way I know how I currently do not work and I would like to use this time to bond with pets and make lasting connections. I enjoy this type of activity and should be open most days of the week. I am meticulous and always follow all directions. I have gotten some pretty thorough briefings on pets before and then glowing reviews afterward. Pets feel safe and comfortable with me and I’m happy to provide extra reassurances to the pet parents as well.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and trust I bring to every pet I watch. I’ve cared for friends’, neighbors’, and clients’ pets both in my home and during overnight stays, so I’m very comfortable adapting to each pet’s routine and environment. I have experience with a wide range of needs, including administering medications and injections, and I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who needs structure and play, or a senior pet who requires a gentler, more patient approach, I tailor my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I also prioritize communication, making sure owners feel at ease with regular updates and photos. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so it’s not something I try to “fit in”, it’s something I intentionally make time for and build my routine around. My approach to pet care is always tailored to each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their pet’s normal schedule to keep things as stress-free as possible. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, while also keeping their environment clean and secure. I’m respectful of the home and aim to leave everything just as I found it. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and at ease. I keep a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime, and I make sure they get lots of supervision and affection throughout the day.

She sent lots of pictures of our pups so we could see they were having a great time and gave thorough reports on how the drop-in visits went. Some of the pics she sent were actually frame-worthy!!

About: Hi! I’m Jackie, a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for dogs, cats, and senior pets. I grew up with dogs and have always been comfortable around them, their energy, and their routines. As an adult, I’m a proud cat mom, which has given me a deep appreciation for feline personalities, boundaries, and the quieter kind of companionship. I understand that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and trusting someone with them is a big deal. I’m patient, attentive, and very detail-oriented when it comes to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and comfort needs. I work from home, which allows me to be present, responsive, and flexible with schedules. I especially enjoy providing calm, reassuring care for pets who may be shy, anxious, older, or just prefer a quieter environment. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, or simply having someone nearby for comfort and companionship, my goal is always to help them feel safe, loved, and relaxed while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work part time and have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to be present, responsive, and attentive to pets throughout the day. I care for pets by closely following their established routines so they feel safe and comfortable in a familiar environment. I take time to understand each pet’s feeding schedule, walking needs, litter or potty routines, medications, and any special instructions provided by their owner. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, clean, and attentive, making sure pets receive plenty of companionship, enrichment, and reassurance while maintaining their normal daily rhythm. I prioritize calm, positive interactions and never rush care. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a quiet, low-stress environment with close supervision, lots of attention, and regular updates to owners. I’m especially mindful of safety, comfort, and cleanliness. I communicate regularly with photos and updates so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away, and I always adjust my care style based on each pet’s personality, energy level, and needs.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 4 years, providing loving and reliable pet sitting and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats, along with 2 years of dog-walking experience. As an animal lover and proud cat mom to my own kitty, Dash, I understand that pets are family and deserve patience, attention, and plenty of affection. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, a little company while you’re away, or someone to check in and make sure they’re happy and comfortable, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own! I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to provide attentive, dependable pet care. I’m available Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays for dog walking and drop-in visits. My flexibility allows me to work around your pet’s routine and give them the time, attention, and care they deserve! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep them comfortable by maintaining their usual routines, following feeding instructions, providing fresh water, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. For dogs, I enjoy getting them outside for walks, exercise, and playtime. For cats, I make sure they have a clean space, fresh food and water, and companionship while their owners are away. I’m also a cat owner myself, and my cat Dash is strictly an indoor cat, so I understand the importance of keeping pets safe indoors and respecting each pet’s individual needs and routines. I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!

About: Hello, my name is Thelma! I am currently an ER Vet Tech, for the last 2 years almost, and working in the ECC Dept. for almost 3 years as an assistant. I am familiar & comfortable administration medications, or fluids. Before I entered Vetmed, I found my connection to animals, by dogsitting frequently. Not to mention, the handful of pets I’ve had. I have been dogsitting for multiple years, with all different kind of breeds. Being in Vetmed and working in the ER, I have extended knowledge and experience when it comes to taking care and watching your pets. I work full-time, all day, between Thu-Sat from 9am-10pm. Leaving the rest of the week to care for your pet(s). During my work week I am unavailable to sit pets since I work morning straight to night. But any other day (with enough time ahead planning wise) I am free to watch and love your pet! I do not take clients pets into my home, but I am more than happy to come to your house for your fur babies. I would care for your pet by simply doing what they know and what they are familiar with.

About: I really adore making connections with animals. I’ve looked after friends and family’s pets many times, whether I dropped in to give some pets and treats or stayed a few nights to keep them company. Apart from my own cat Jade, there’s lots of strays in the area that my neighbors and I help feed and look after. I also live very close to the SPCA in case of emergencies. I love being active and having an excuse to take a walk or play with your loved ones. I work an 8am-4pm office job. I work from home every Thursday, and am off Saturdays and Sundays. Would be able to stop by after work, spend nights, go on walks and to parks, or just to chill and give your pet some company while you’re away! I’m very careful about having scraps and trash cleaned up to avoid any eating or swallowing. I don’t keep many hazardous plants or products in my home. I have many soft spaces for dogs or cats to lay or hide, very calm and quiet in the home and neighborhood as well. I’m always giving my cat attention, and check up on her paws, teeth, ears, and normal behavior every day to make sure she’s okay

About: I have been caring for my own pets for my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was fourteen. I formerly majored in Animal Science/Pre-vet at UConn before switching to an ecology degree, so helping animals is my life’s mission! I also have clinical experience working as a veterinary technician, so I am comfortable handling animals and making sure any medical needs are taken care of. Each and every pet deserves the same degree of love, care, and affection, and I would love to look after your furry friend! I am on break from college so my days are free to look after your pets! For house sits, I may on occasion have to go out for an errand or two, but I usually will not be away for more than an hour. I am happy to offer around the clock care if that is necessary. I currently cannot accept other pets into my own home, but I will be sure to treat your home with respect and follow any guidelines you may have, such as if pets are allowed on furniture, etc.

I cannot say enough great things about my pet sitter. She went above and beyond to take care of my dog and four cats, giving each of them so much attention and care. Her communication was excellent—she kept me updated every visit—and she always arrived promptly. I also appreciated how clean and tidy she kept my home while I was away. It gave me such peace of mind knowing everything (and everyone!) was in such good hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Strathmore

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Strathmore is $31 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $45 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 3,105 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Strathmore. 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 Strathmore. On Rover:

  • 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% 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.
