“We could not have been happier with the service Kailia provided. We felt so at ease with her dropping in to care for our fur baby while we were away! Her communication was outstanding”
“So sweet ! Took lovely care of my cats, and was very helpful in navigating the app as well as canceling a day early ! Even left some adorable wildflower seeds for me to plant :) I would highly recommend using Kathryn to look over your pets.”
“This is my second time booking with Victoria and Mocha loves her! She’s super communicative and responsive. Friendly and professional which makes me feel comfortable leaving my baby with her. 10/10 would recommend to everyone!”
“Emma was wonderful! She was very kind, responsive, and dependable, and I felt completely comfortable knowing Livy was in good hands while I was away. She kept me updated and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. Most importantly, I came home to a happy, healthy Livy—which, as any cat parent knows, is really the ultimate test! I would absolutely recommend Emma and would happily book with her again.”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life. I currently have 2 kittens and my family has a 13 year old yorkie! I’ve had my own dogs, big and small, cats, and a bunny, birds and guinea pigs. I volunteered at my local animal shelter in high school, and now in college I have my own pets! I believe animals deserve so much love and respect and will treat your animals like my own. I am currently a USF student with online classes only! I am able to help you and your pets at any time during the week. I have my own transportation and my own pets are very easy to take care of, so I am able to be working very flexible hours. While working in your home, you can ensure that your pets will receive my full love and attention. I have walked big dogs, and dogs that like to pull, such as labs, dobermans and german shepherds. I am used to dogs jumping and play bites. I am also used to bathing cats and dogs, when necessary, and administering medication to them as well.
About: I grew up with 2 beautiful German Shepards for 10 years. I had a Yorkie for 10 years before moving to this area. I enjoy walking a variety of dogs. I work full time so I'm available after 5:30 pm Monday to Friday. Weekends I am free depending on time. I'm also available early weekday mornings. I will treat your home with the utmost respect. I will clean up any mess or accidents when coming into the home. I will also check the food and water bowl.
“Andrea is the cat whisperer! My cats, one of which is extremely shy, warmed up to her immediately. Cats have a sense of who they can trust. Andrea was reliable, followed everything that was asked, and sent updates. I always get nervous leaving my pets home by themselves when I'm away, but I felt at ease with Andrea checking on them. Will definitely be contacting her again!”
“Michelle is 10 stars. I was impressed from the moment i met Michelle with her preparation and attention to detail. I left the country for 2 weeks and she went above and beyond keeping me updated and taking great care of 5 cats and a bird! I had no worries while i was away thanks to Michelle”
About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I would love to walk and love on your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I love walking in and seeing the smiles when they know they get to go for a walk! I’m a local PreK teacher so my schedule is usually free after 3:30 on weekdays, but my weekends are usually wide open! Growing up I always had animals in my house so I’m very comfortable with messes they make or medicine they need, so if your babies need that too I’d be more than happy to help! If you’re looking for someone to have your pets feel comfortable and happy all day, even while you’re away, I’d love to be that person! I'm currently a PreK teacher at a local elementary school, so my weekdays are open starting around 3:30 pm! On the weekends, I usually hang out at home or around town, so my schedule is pretty flexible! In your home, I promise to follow whatever makes your pets the most comfortable! Whether your dogs like to lounge on the couch or feel more content in a crate, I'll do whatever you'd like!
About: I have worked at a dog-boarding kennel, Barkefellers in Indianapolis. I have experience with dogs of all ages and energy levels! Friends, family and neighbors have previously relied on me to care for their pets. I have experience in house-sitting, dog walks, and drop-in visits. I understand all pets are different and I hope to meet all of your fur babies wants and needs. I am a college student with a flexible schedule. I have reliable transportation and can be available with little notice. I am available all-throughout the day. I am also able to stop by for early-mornings or late-nights. I have experience working in a dog-daycare so I have been trained to look for signs of illness, distress and overheating. I am an effective communicator and will work with pet parents to assure comfort and safety.

About: I have experience in both pet sitting and grooming. I have worked with dogs and cat of many different ages and personalities.

“Very communicative, kind and our cat definitely seems to have had a great experience! We would absolutely rebook Mia. Even went extra mile to help our kitty with an extra need than we expected”
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs for many years and have experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving dogs attention, and keeping their normal routines while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has a different personality and needs, so I’m patient and attentive to their individual routines. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I’m available for pet sitting, walks, and boarding depending on the day. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I have two friendly dogs of my own and have experience caring for pets for friends and family. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I’ll follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m also happy to provide updates while you’re away.
“Avery was great. wonderful communication from the start. Appreciated time with meet n greet- and attention to my pup. I was in Clearwater for sisters surgery and Avery was very flexible given the unknowns in this crisis. Was great with my dog and I’d highly recommend!”
“Morgan was amazing and I already plan on booking her again! She did hourly check-ins on my cat while I was traveling, and my cat is somewhat of a sassy girl, and takes a while to warm up to people. Seeing their relationship progress through the photos was so cute, and after a couple days she was snuggling Morgan and in her lap - which does NOT happen easily! I came back to a kitty who I knew was well taken care of, and my place was in perfect condition, with a nice note from Morgan. 100% recommend her!”
“Anne was wonderful with our two cats. She is obviously a very caring person and an animal lover, and she was comfortable with them very quickly. One of my cats is very social (he wants lots of affection) but the other one (a female) is very timid and fearful and prefers little to no touching. Anne kept them in separate rooms/areas as I'd requested, since the male will bully the female if given the chance and they may fight with each other. Anne also took extra precautions to ensure our 'lightning-fast' kitty could not run out of the house whenever doors were opened, which really eased my mind. The shy one felt comfy enough to rub herself on Anne's legs at feeding time! Anne also sent me daily updates, along with pictures - which was very appreciated since I was out of state! I am very happy with the care provided. I will book again with Anne whenever needed in the future. Thanks again, Anne!”

Aliyah was so kind and attentive to my cats while i was out of the country for nearly 2 weeks. My cats are both seniors, one with slight medical issues and she made sure to give him extra special care which I appreciated so much. She provided great details and pictures on every visit and followed the care instructions perfectly. She even helped with my isopods/bugs care which she was not obligated to do but she was more than willing to help with. I will definitely use her again in the future and would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter.
From the moment we met Lauren we knew our fur babies were in good hands. Very friendly and engaging, listened to the different diets our cats have to be on and followed the instructions to the letter! We also have an anxious pup when the storms start and she administered her anxiety medication perfectly. Kept in touch with regular updates including photos every day. Came back to a clean house with very happy and contented fur babies. Lauren is a star and we will DEFINITELY ask her to sit again when we have some vacation. Thank you Lauren x
Cecilia was awesome! She came and did drop-in visits with our cat Millie, and got her to warm up to her right away! She sent awesome updates and lots of pics during our visit showing our girl getting lots of love and pets! She made our time away feel much better knowing she was in good hands! Will definitely book her again for future vacations :)
We are truly grateful for Hillary's wonderful care of our cats. She was so attentive to every detail we asked for and quickly gained their trust. We genuinely appreciate her helping us feel at ease while we were away. Hillary also shared very helpful information every single day.
Love love love Marie!!! She was so attentive and sweet with my cat, Sushi. She made sure to keep me updated, sent me pictures, and tidy up the house in the smallest ways! You can tell she loves being with animals and that she knows exactly what she’s doing. We can’t wait to see her again!
Brooklyn was a great pet sitter! She followed all of my instructions to a T, checked in on my cat, and tried to play with her as much as she could. She took care to go above and beyond what was asked of her, which I really appreciated. I will definitely book with Brooklyn again if she is available the next time I am out of town!
Victoria was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly communicative, sent lots of updates and pictures. She was so sweet, thoughtful, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell she genuinely cared for my cat, and I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Temple Terrace is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 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.

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 .
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 , 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 .

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 , 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.
