About: I have pet sit for friends and family members for years now, so there’s truly nothing I haven’t seen. I always treat the pets I’m taking care of as if they were my own (I grew up with dogs and have 2 cats atm and they’re my babies). If your pet has a special request/need, I’m happy to accommodate and give them the best experience possible! I’m currently in grad school pursuing two degrees, one in public health and the other in public affairs. As you may assume, school and studying take up a lot of my time (but never too much for your pet). I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pets needs and provide them with the individualized care they deserve! While I’m not able to keep your pet at my home, I can do you one better and turn their own into a mini vacation! Luxurious morning walks at the park?✅ Homemade meals based on dietary preference?✅ Screenings of YouTube tv for dogs/cats?✅ and more!
“Taylor did great with our slightly sassy cat. She did all that was requested, was quick to respond, and asked good questions about the cat’s needs and habits. Would recommend!”
“We got so lucky finding Allie! I needed a last minute sitter and took to Rover to find one. Allie was so responsive and was able to set up a meet & greet that same day. Skye is usually anxious when meeting new people, but warmed up to Allie instantly - which is always a good sign for me. I was immediately put at ease and felt the trust established. Allie was on top of it and took such good care of Skye. It was so nice to receive such intentional Rover Cards with pictures of Skye every day. I would recommend Allie to anyone looking for a pet sitter in South Austin and will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Alexandra was very good with my skittish dog, taking the time to get him comfortable and sending updates and pictures of the visit. Her patience with him was much appreciated!”
“Antonio had great communication from the start. He came over to see our place and meet Zoey before our vacation. I felt very comfortable with his help. He even brought in a package on our porch for us that had arrived late. We will definitely use him again as Zoey seemed like a very happy cat when we got home.”
“My cats liked Jeffrey more than me. During the meet and greet all of my cats came out to see who he was and two of them went up to say hi. During Jeffrey’s visits, he administered medicine to my diabetic kitty, played with them, fed them and scooped their litter boxes. Sometimes when my cats miss me, they’ll only sleep on the couch or under the bed, but every time I checked my ring camera, they were sleeping on top of my bed, which means they were content and happy, even though I was gone. Jeffrey was very professional and kind to us.”
“John was amazing with our two dogs. Our pitbull is a little protective with our house and John understood him so well. I would definitely recommend him to others. My dogs loved playing with him!”
“Samantha did a fantastic job of caring for our cat Piper, while we were away for 5 days! Piper appeared to really connect with Samantha, and clearly the feeling was mutual. The photos and messages showed us that Piper was exercised, entertained, engaged in play, and very much loved on when Samantha dropped in! Two-way messaging with Samantha was easy and gave us incredible peace of mind. We'd hire her again!”
“Misha was very reliable, friendly, accommodated the special needs of my cats and myself, and was a great pet sitter!! I will definitely ask him to sit again!!!”
“Kayla was very attentive with chicken, chicken enjoyed her treats and pet pets. Everything went according to plan. Will request Kayla to visit kitties again in the future.”
“Penelope was very easy to work with - communicative, sent so many pics, and spent good time with my cats when she checked on them! Will absolutely work with her again.”
“Nicole was the best cat sitter I could hope for! She cared for my 3 cats like they were her own. She sent me lots of updates with pictures and truly went above and beyond.”
“Annie was an amazing pet sitter! She was attentive, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure my cats were happy and well taken care of. I really appreciated her updates and the extra care she showed.”
“Christine has been so great with my pup. She is always willing to help out with check ins and is really good about documenting the visit and providing photos. I can rest easy when I’m away knowing that my pup is in great hands!”
“Stephanie has been helping me with Callie for about 1.5 years and has been amazing. Callie is always well cared for and loves her walks. Callie also has some issues with other dogs which Stephanie has been amazing navigating and handling. I couldn’t recommend anyone more!!”
“I definitely recommend Dale for peace of mind when leaving your furry friends. He took excellent care of my senior fur baby and even got my nervous cat to warm up. He sent great photos and updates the whole time, and went above and beyond tidying their litter and eating areas. I would absolutely have Dale back to care for my guys!”
“Lillian did an amazing job with our dog, Brimsley! She was communicative, caring, and made sure he was happy and well taken care of. We could tell he felt comfortable and loved while we were away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!”

Lara was so great for my cats drop in visits! From the start, she was communicative and spent time understanding all of her needs. She sent tons of cute pictures, provided updates every single day and I could tell my girl loved her. I highly recommend booking her for all of your pet sitting needs.
Rebecca is amazing! My cat loves when she stops by and is always so excited to see her. I am so comfortable leaving my cat in her care and know I am always getting many pictures and updates. Even when my cat was sick and I was gone, Rebecca didn’t hesitate to help out extra. She is fantastic!
Alexandra took great care of our cats! One of our cats is notoriously shy and afraid of strangers but he warmed up to Alexandra immediately and really took to her over the few days that we were gone. It made us so happy to know that Jack was comfortable and getting such great care. Thank you again Alexandra!
Taylor was the purr-fect cat whisperer for our two girls. We got daily pics and reports that we enjoyed and eased any concerns of being gone. We could see they were being well cared for during our vacation. Thank you Taylor for being such an attentive sitter. It was a pleasure meeting you.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Sunset Valley on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 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 .

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.

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.
