About: I have had dogs my whole life, and have experience with both small and large dog care. Experience giving medication to dogs. I also enjoy taking dogs for walks.. I currently work part-time, but can arrange pet care around my work schedule. I am a recent high school graduate and will be going to college in the fall, but can be available from time to time to sit. I’m a lifelong dog lover, I’ve never known a time in my life where I haven’t had a dog as a pet. I treat my dogs like my siblings and would do the same for any dog I’m caring for.

We love Lori! We were in need of someone to walk our dog while I was out of town and my husband was working and not only was she trustworthy, kind and on time, she was flexible with our changing needs and communicated so well! Will absolutely be using her in the future and would recommend if you need a dog walker!

We had a very last minute need for a check in visit for our dogs and Sydnie was an absolute angel! She fed and walked our pups and spent some sweet time snuggling with them as well! We hope the next time isn’t quite so urgent, and can’t wait for Sydnie to visit again!

My cats are very shy when meeting new people and Katelyn was wonderful in understanding and making sure they got the care they needed regardless. She made sure that they were eating and drinking and sent pics and updates to a worried cat mom! Thanks Katelyn :)

About: I am an experienced pet care specialist holding a bachelor’s degree in Zoo Science, with an advanced specialization in exotic animals and herpetological care. My career in the pet care industry spans over a decade, beginning at age 13. Over the years, I have provided comprehensive services including dog walking, bathing, daily drop-ins, overnight care, and extended-stay boarding for dogs, cats, and small animals.My professional background includes serving as an animal care technician at two veterinary clinics, alongside completing two specialized summer internships in the bird and reptile departments at Zoo Knoxville (Tennessee). With over 1,000 hours of professional hands-on experience with exotic species, combined with a lifetime of domestic animal care, I offer a level of expertise that handles everything from high-energy dogs to delicate, specialized setups. As a dedicated pet owner myself to 2 cats and 2 snakes, I treat every animal in my care with the utmost respect, safety, and individual attention they deserve. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! While I do work a structured job, my schedule allows for great flexibility: Before & After Work: Available for extended morning or evening visits, long walks, and overnight care. Mid-Day Flexibility: I have an open mid-shift break that allows me to run out for quick drop-ins, potty breaks, or feedings. Consistency: My shift schedule means your pet gets a highly reliable, predictable care routine every day. I believe clear communication is the foundation of exceptional pet care. Your insights into your pet's unique routine, comfort levels, and behavior are invaluable to me. With my Zoo Science background and graduate-level studies in animal behavior, I am highly skilled at reading and adjusting to a wide variety of animal personalities. I have extensive experience managing complex behaviors, including crate and food aggression, and I know how to keep interactions safe, calm, and positive. Whether your pet has specific reactivity triggers or simply needs a patient approach, you can trust that I will respect your expectations and handle their care with professional expertise.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats most my life and have cared for many friend’s and neighbor’s pets. I love dogs, cats, and even bunnies and will care for yours like they were my own. I have plenty of experience teaching my dogs tricks and good behavior along with giving them medicine and treatment when needed. I currently work part time and am a part time online grad student working on my masters degree from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On my days home I’d love a break to care for your pet or enjoy a nice walk together! I currently have no pets of my own and can come by to care for your pet whenever you may need. I work well with all pets big, small, young, and old as long as they are non-aggressive.

About: I have always been an animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. Through drop-in visits and walks, I make sure pets stay on their routine while their owners are away, whether that means exercise, playtime, feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident their pets are safe and happy, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and always prioritize reliability, communication, and a calm, caring approach. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility, so I am able to work around your preferred schedule and needs. I am available everyday to drop-in for a visit or take your animal for a walk. I have had all types of animals growing up and now have 2 dogs and a cat of my own. I treat all animals that I am taking care of like my own. I keep the owner informed on how their pet is doing when I stop, as I prefer to receive the same communication when I am away from my animals.

About: Hey there! I’ve love and have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was about 5 years old. I’ve had a few dogs, cats, and reptiles throughout my life. I currently have two cats named Duck and Goose and a 10 year old crested gecko named Bindi. I’m good with cats, dogs, reptiles, and some small animals as well. Even the shyest of pets seem to warm up to me. I’m currently working a full time job. My schedule can be a bit hectic but I’d love to watch your pets when I can! I will keep my calendar updated and be responsive to any requests. I have experience with feeding, brushing, and playing with cats and dogs, as well as walking dogs. I’m also experienced with feeding (including live insects - no mice) and cleaning up after reptiles, along with administering eye drops and oral medicine for them.

About: As a caregiver of humans, my number one asset for this job is patience. I am not easily startled or upset, and treat any accidents or change in plans as a reason to simply go with the flow. Having worked with medically complex newborns, colic babies, and overnight nanny shifts, I am well equipped to deal with a pet that might be anxious or jumpy because they miss their parent. I currently work as a nanny and doula, so my schedule fluctuates greatly. At times I may have multiple baby/mother clients, and at times I may only have one, and am seeking flexible caregiving work with animals to brighten my slower weeks. From my experience as a nanny and doula, I always prioritize safety, following caregiving instructions and bringing a calm energy to your home to make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I do not care for animals in my own home as my cat is happier being an only child. I offer drop ins and walks for cats and small/medium dogs. I have over five years experience working in other people’s homes with both animals and children, so I am very thorough and detail oriented, always remembering to shut doors behind me and keep things safely out of the reach of babies and animals. As a doula, I often enter people’s homes at a very vulnerable and chaotic time and so I am used to being a responsible source of stability as a caregiver.

So while you are busy at your 9-5 you can trust that your pets are taken care of and ready for you to be home :) I am detail oriented and will worry about your pet as if they are my own.

About: Growing up, I always had pets around my home. From a docile miniature Dachshund to an excitable (perhaps… crazy?) German Shepherd, I have taken care of dogs of various sizes and personalities! I love both over-excitable pups and older dogs who need extra support and care. In the past, I have spent time volunteering with Mastiffs to Mutts Rescue to transport rescue dogs from their foster homes to their forever homes, so I have experience handling very large dogs! I currently have two gray tabbies (a bonded pair of sisters) and grew up with other feline friends. I understand the kind of care they need when their favorite humans are away, whether they are skittish or brave adventurers! I'm currently a music teacher in Washington County, so I am tend to only take clients over holidays and throughout the summer months. I am also available on most weekends with at least 2 days notice. I live in a small home with my own cats, so I am not available for pet-sitting in my own home. However, I have experience pet-sitting and house-sitting and take extra care when in someone’s home. Security and safety of your pet and home is my first priority. I am more than willing to share updates and photos of your pet or home with you to ease any worries you may have while away from your furry friends!

Took care of our cats while we were gone on a trip for 8 days and did a fantastic job. Gave updates and sent good pictures and even went above and beyond and cleaned up some vomit and took our trash out for us. Highly recommend them and would love to use again in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Sturgeon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 1,258 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sturgeon. 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 Sturgeon. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 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.
