“Thanks Katie! Yes she is a lot for comfortable. As it gets warmer, we’d like to concentrate any potty breaks by or behind the evergreen between the pavilion and shed. Digging is also the ultimate sin. I told her this! Lol”
“Alissa has now had a few drop in visits for my two poodles. Everything has been great with her service. She has been friendly with prompt communication and detailed reports. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Jonathan was absolutely wonderful! He watched my two cats for me while I was away for about a week and treated them so well. They warmed up to him immediately which doesn’t usually happen and he made sure to spend good time with them each day for brushing, treats, and general company. I would definitely recommend him!”
“Kaylee has just finished a week of visits to take care of my two cats. This is her second stint for me. Very happy at the attention to detail. She even left food for the squirrels! (if I forget they find the bag themselves!) Thank you Kaylee above and beyond.”
“As my first experience with April caring for Nova, I am already at ease. I am very particular about my pup and I can already tell I’ve lucked out with April. Thank you! 💜🐾”
“Amber was great! We had an unusual request (help us medicate our cats, it takes 2 people) and she jumped right in. Without her our kitties would have missed days of necessary medications.”
“Cara is extremely professional and a delight when she checks in on our little guy. Her communication is timely and provides a great level of assurance that our cat is well taken care of. We are beyond thrilled that we found Cara!”
“Five stars isn’t enough. Our cat Felix absolutely fell in love with Eryn. He was relaxed, happy, and clearly adored while we were away. We got great updates, thoughtful care, and came home to a very content boy. Truly exceptional experience — we’ll be booking again without hesitation.”
About: All my life I’ve had a variety of different animals all including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc. You name it, I have owned it. In some time spans all at the same time. I would love to take all this experience that I was fortunate enough to obtain throughout the years and bring it to your home! I am currently enrolled at the Western New England University. At the time being as I am on summer break I am looking for something to do to take up all this newly acquired time. As well as make some extra money to go towards my tuitions. Since I have a love for animals I thought this was the perfect opportunity for me. At the moment I currently have 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a cocktail. As you can imagine yes they can certainly be a handful but I couldnt imagine my life without them. Each and everyone being on a schedule of their own which is always never a problem.
“Kage was great with Stella and Luna. Each drop in he gave a detailed description of everything along with photos. He had good base knowledge of cat behavior which made us feel comfortable right away. 10/10 recommend!”
“Sounds like Kai has a new friend. Thanks for accommodating the earlier start time. Let me know if you have success with her not jumping. It’s her love language but most people don’t care for it. Hoping as she gets more accustomed to her new home, she’ll be able to stay home ithiut the crate but not yet.”
“Kayla did a fantastic job, she met Zesus before the scheduled sitting. Provided a few amazing pictures while I was away. And went above and being when something came up. Couldn't recommend her enough!”
“I had Molly come to the house a few times during this past week and Molly was wonderful with Benny, she arrived on time, follow my directions with Benny, left me detailed messages about the visits. I had a weird schedule and she was able to accommodate us. We really appreciate it! And I also got lots of pictures, This was my first time using Rover we’re grateful for Molly, I will definitely have her services again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 891 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Thorndike. 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 Thorndike. On Rover:
- 95% 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.
