“Super communicative and so easy to work with! Went above and beyond for my old lady baby. As long as he’s available, Cameron is the only one I’d book for future visits.”
“Morgan is the absolute best! The kindest sitter that I trust completely to take care of my cat. Morgan is such a fantastic communicator and showers pets with love and care. Cannot recommend highly enough!!!”
“Madeline is so sweet! She took great care of our two dogs and even took the time to clean their feet when it was rainy out to not track dirt inside. We would definitely recommend and use her again in the future!”
“Sara was amazing with our three kitties!! She gave them so much love and attention. Plus she was so understanding when we had a mix up with our keys. Amazing communication I definitely recommend her to watch your fur babies!!”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with difficult breeds, anxious dogs, and intensive medical care. I just recently had to say goodbye to my own dog a few months ago and saw him through many complex medical treatments, which has made me highly attentive, patient, and confident following detailed care routines. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring mobility or behavioral changes, and adapting care based on each dog’s needs. I truly love dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and compassion. Pet care used to be apart of my everyday routine and it's something I miss very much. Because I manage my own schedule, I’m able to be flexible while still providing consistent, dependable care. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on following each pet’s routine as closely as possible. I take time to understand feeding schedules, walking preferences, leash behavior, and any special instructions ahead of time. During visits, I prioritize safety, calm energy, and attentive care, while also checking food, water, litter boxes (if applicable), and the home environment. I always provide updates, photos, and notes so pet parents know how their pet is doing.
“Katie is just the best. She went out of her way to look after my guy when I had to work late. She came over the day before so he could meet her. She put my mind at ease and sent me lots of pictures from their time together. We can’t wait for her to come visit again!”
“Alexandra did such a fabulous job caring for our dogs Eevee and Marlo! We can’t thank her enough for being so attentive to them, and following our instructions. She’s a wonderful sitter!”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was a baby, learning how to care and respect them from my parents, helping with the animal chores growing up. I have years of experience babysitting animals since I was 17, both overnight stays and check ins. I worked for a dog daycare for a year, giving me the ability to learn the doggy body language and knowledge on how to handle dogs of all sorts of temperments. I have experience with basic medical care and giving multiple kinda of medication. My schedule is currently pretty open, so I will have plenty of time for your pets! This will update when I have gotten a new job schedule, but I will always make sure I have the time to properly care for your critter before accepting an offer to care. I am always careful to leave a house as I have found it, making sure to triple check any rules given to me before entering and before leaving the establishment out of respect for you and your critter. If I spend nights, I try to put the sheets in the washer/drier and wash any dishes used before leaving unless asked otherwise.
About: Fenced yard, clean and cozy private pet room, and personalized care make your pet feel right at home, safe, loved and stress free during their stay. Pet care is part of my daily routine, I’m always available though out the day to provide playtime, potty breaks, meals and plenty of love Your pet will enjoy a safe, clean environment with a private room for rest and comfort plus a secured fence in yard space for supervised outdoor play
“Paige, is a fantastic sitter who is trustworthy and reliable. Her communication skills and adaptability has made her one the best sitters I have worked with. Paige immediately built a bond with my pet and we enjoy having her around.”
“Even though he was unable to get in my house because I gave him the wrong key, he still checked on Cooky and Butler to make sure they were safe. Thank you so much for your dedication. I can't wait to schedule you again.”
“Eli is so wonderful with our shy/fearful girl. He has a very calm presence and Marsi warmed up to him right away. He is so kind and easy to coordinate with and he shares updates with pictures from his visits!”
About: I’ve had pets (mostly dogs) my whole life. I’ve also cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule and feel it would be a win-win to incorporate some interaction and movement into my days while caring for someone’s pet. I work remote so weekdays are very flexible. Early mornings and lunch time would be most available. Ideally would be caring for pets in/around the Daffin park area. I have 2 indoor cats, so I am not able to have other pets stay at my home. I am happy to take care of other pets in the client’s home.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Thunderbolt is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Thunderbolt
Madeline was exactly what I had hoped for! She went the extra mile taking care of my kitties and even watered my pants for me during the hot summer days. I couldn’t be more happy with the experience and her amazing care and kindness. I couldn’t have done this trip without her.
Paige was a pleasure to work with. She arrived at the scheduled time for drop-in visits (even though we were flexible about this) and sent cute photos of our cats. She was also very accommodating about the needs of our quite elderly cat (incontinence). Will definitely book with Paige again.
I can honestly say I’m someone who struggles to leave my dogs and fully enjoy vacation because I worry so much about them. Samantha completely changed that experience for me. Her calm, confident presence was so reassuring from the start. She was patient and intuitive with my very shy dogs/cats and in just a weekend she had a couple of real breakthroughs with them. That meant everything to me. It’s clear she genuinely cares and understands animals on a deeper level. I couldn’t recommend her more!
So helpful and very accommodating!! I was so nervous to leave my kitty alone for a few days but Jessica gave her lots of love and care for me. She did a great job at keeping everything tidy and cleaning any messes. She also sent lots of photos which I greatly appreciated. Super thankful for her help!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Thunderbolt on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of July 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.
