“Sonja was amazing!! She did a great job taking care of my cat. She was so easy to communicate with and made the whole experience so easy. I would highly recommend her!!”
“Claire took great care of our dog, Monte, who can be a lot to handle. We were sent pics of him playing on her visits and he looked very well cared for! She was extremely thorough on her visits making sure he was good to go before leaving.”
“Rachel is truly amazing! She took excellent care of our two kitties on very short notice. Upon coming to our home, she immediately sat down on the floor to gently introduced herself to them, allowing them to approach her on their terms. One of our kitties has FHS and requires a capsule of Gabapentin 2x's a day, 12 hours apart. Not only did Rachel stick to the 12 hour schedule she also played with them and provided updates and photos each visit. She's kind, patient, and really took the time to understand what our routines are with them so she could provide the same. We will 100% book with Rachel for all future needs!”
“Eleanor was very responsible and our family felt like she was taking care of our dogs well. We got photos of them every day we were away. She was great about responding and getting in touch with any questions or concerns in a timely matter. We will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Ryan is a breath of fresh air after having several poor pet sitter experiences. We are very thankful to have found her, as we are completely at ease during our trips out of town. She is thoughtful, prompt, and thorough. We love her and so do Bonnie and Panda!”
“I am so very thankful for Michael’s services! He takes excellent care of my baby feline, Puddy, when I am away. I never have to worry about my cat when I am out of town.”
“Our experience with Melanie was fantastic! She communicated clearly and consistently, sending daily updates and adorable photos & videos that kept us reassured. Our cats absolutely loved her—and it’s easy to see why. She’s truly awesome!”
“As always, Danny and Jennifer go above and beyond. They took care of our boy even when he was freaked out and grumpy! The loved our girl even when she stole ALL the balls. They even checked on our lost Roomba and helped it find its way home. From the bottom of our hearts—thank you!!!”
“Anne was absolutely wonderful with our four month old puppy. He loves meeting new people, but is still very energetic (and teething). She was very patient with him and added in lots of playtime to tire him out. We will be highly recommending her to friends and family in the area!”
About: Hello! My name is Haley and I am excited to be able to help you in your pet care experience! I am a proud owner of two cats, a puppy and a snake. I have spent my life growing up around animals and training them as well. I know what love and care is needed for your animals as I will take care of them the same I would take care of mine. I have come to learn that patience, love and fun are the best qualities to have when caring for any animals. I will be sure to take the time and dedication that is needed to ensure your animal feels safe, loved and well taken care of while you are unavailable. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask! * I work with a flexible schedule, which allows me to consistently build pet care into my daily routine. * As a pet owner myself, animal care is already a major part of my everyday life. * I intentionally plan my schedule to give pets reliable attention instead of rushed drop-ins. * I prioritize: * Feeding and fresh water * Playtime and enrichment * Litter box cleaning and maintenance * Medication routines if needed * Quality interaction and companionship * I understand how important consistency and routine are, especially for cats adjusting to new people or schedule changes. * I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care feels like a natural and rewarding part of my routine rather than an extra obligation. * I create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment for every pet in my care. * I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, medications, playtime, and comfort preferences. * I respect every animal’s personality and boundaries and never force interaction before they feel comfortable. * I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing. * I keep litter boxes, feeding areas, and pet spaces clean and sanitary. * I double-check doors, gates, and safety concerns to help prevent escapes or stress. * I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while away. * In clients’ homes, I treat both the pets and the space with care, cleanliness, and respect.
“Kate did a wonderful job taking care of our two kitties. She was easy to communicate with, arrived on time and followed the instructions that I provided. I have marked her as one of my favorites in Rover.”
About: I've had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. I started a neighborhood dog walking business back in elementary school, and that early love for pets turned into a lifelong habit of helping out whenever friends and family needed a hand with their furry companions. I've owned both cats and dogs over the years, and they've always been a pivotal part of our family. I know firsthand how much they matter, and how much peace of mind it takes to leave them in someone else's care. I'd love the opportunity to help keep your pet safe, happy, and energized while you're away. Whether it's a long walk, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I'll treat your pet like one of my own. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-in visits, walks, and playtime throughout the day, including weekdays. I'm not offering overnight boarding at this time, but I'm happy to accommodate multiple visits per day or last-minute requests when needed. Just reach out and I'll do my best to work around your schedule! When I am visiting them in your home, my goal is always the same: to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. For drop-in visits, I focus on sticking to your pet's normal routine, feeding times, potty breaks, medication if needed so there's as little disruption to their day as possible. I like to spend quality time with each pet, whether that's a walk, active playtime, or just calm companionship, depending on what they enjoy most. I always keep a close eye on their environment to make sure everything is safe and secure, and I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I'd want for my own. Communication is important to me too so I'll keep you updated with photos or messages during visits so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for years! I have lots of experience with different breeds and many different types of caregiving. Some of my experience includes watching two very active pit bull mix siblings. I would check in on the dogs 4+ times per day, take each one on a 2+ mile walk every day, and spend at least 1-2 hours of sit down time so they weren’t lonely. I watched those lovely dogs for 2-3 weeks at a time for numerous years! My most recent experience was taking care of Two english pointers, a rottweiler, and smaller mutt dog for 3 nights! Each dog had a separate feeding space and interactive form of eating. I made sure to follow their owners specific instructions and give the dogs lots of walks, outside time, and sit down time for 5+ hours a day! As well as the dogs I took care of two goats at that home as well! I am very capable of walking and pet sitting many different dogs. I have experience with smaller dogs like Mini poodles, to high energy large dogs like weimaraners. I will do my best to give your animals the love and care they deserve. I will make sure that they are healthy, safe, and most importantly happy! I pet sit in STL over the summer and Lawrence KS from August-May Between May-August I work part time at the Sunset Country club. Even with my work I should and will be able to schedule and give your pets the best of care that includes at least 3 or more check ins per day and walks twice or more a day, depending on their needs and your request. I do not work Mondays, which makes me more free! From August-May I am a full time student with a lot of free time to walk pets, stop in, watch them, and more! I care for pets to the best of my ability and give them the most love and care I am capable of! Between my two households, I have 2 dogs and recently one that passed. I take care of my pets and others pets to the best of my ability and want to ensure that your pets are cared for and you trust and are confident that they are healthy, safe, and most importantly, happy! I will always adjust to you and your pets needs, so please communicate openly and fully so I can do my best to give your pets the best!
“Great job! Thanks for taking such good care of my girls. You must be a “cat whisperer” to have gotten them both out to visit with you so quickly! You made my time away bearable for them and worry free for me. I would definitely book your services again.”

Asa was wonderful. I received pictures and updates. She took time with each of my cats as they have to be kept separate. I came home to each of my cats being well taking care of, everything being tidy, and both of the kitties having attention. I am so happy with Asa’s care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,302 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sunset Hills. 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 Sunset Hills. On Rover:
- 94% 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.
