About: I am offering drop-in visits for dogs and cats and daily dog walks. I have owned many dogs and cats in my life two of which were senior dogs. I am very responsible when caring for senior dogs, I understand the time and effort required for their care. I currently own a 3 year old dachshund lab mix named Bud that I adopted from the Nacogdoches Animal Shelter. He has very high energy and is very active. I take him for daily walks and play with him daily. I really enjoy working with animals and I am very much a dog lover. I am very reliable and hardworking and will always do my best to give your pets the best care that they deserve. I am very excited to care for your beloved pets. I work full time for the City of Tyler. I am available most week days after 6. I am available anytime on most weekends before 9 pm. I walk my dog daily and take him to a fenced in dog park 3 times a day. When with a clients dog I always stay with them when outside on leash or in a fenced in yard. I am always sure to keep an eye on the dog when outside. I am very attentive with pets I have had pets my whole life and have always provided excellent care to the best of my abilities.

“Patti took great care of our kitty Lychee! He needs medication every 12h and he’s pretty skittish. She was very patient chasing him to grab him and gently giving him his oral meds. She also got along super well with our other kitty Mochi who is very shy, she was even able to pet both of them. We’ll definitely book her again when we’re out of town to check on them or to give meds!!”

About: I have been involved in the care of my own dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. Additionally, I have trained and fostered a dog in college through an entire semester! In the past I have helped pet sit for a couple friends overnight, so if you're looking for someone who will be respectful of your space, I am the person for you! I am in-between jobs so I will have a lot of avilability, especially between october to december! However I will need some heads up as I can't do a lot of things last minute! I care for animals by ensuring they have fresh food and water everyday, cleaning and grooming as needed. Will also play, walk, and train, and cuddle with the furry companions!

I care for your pets as if they are my own, as I know how important they are to you. I will be able to do whatever is needed to make sure they feel comfortable!

About: I have experience dog sitting small and big dogs, and pet sitting for families I know, including caring for my bosses’ dogs and cat when they were away. I also grew up with a dog, so I understand how important it is to give pets love, attention, and a safe routine. I’m comfortable helping with feeding, walks, basic care and keeping owners updated while they’re away. I always make sure to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions from the owner, because every dog has their own personality and needs. I currently work part time and remote, so my schedule is very flexible. I can help during the day and/or over night as needed I cannot bring pets home as I live in an apartment where no pets are allowed, but I can definitely go and stay at clients house as needed

About: I have plenty of free time to walk and play with your dogs and cats and keeping both you and them happy. My schedules are super flexible and I can housesit your pets whenever when you’re off to work. I can also bathe them if they have been playing in the backyard, rolling in the dirt, and gets too stinky. I do have two cats, the black one is named Happy and the orange one is named Teo. They are super sweet and I’m pretty sure our pets will get along super well! I will have a dance party with your little best friends. Oh fun fact about me is that I used to be the chaplain of FFA in high school, so I know a thing or two about animals. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play and walk with your fur babies. I’m available most of the time, just shoot me a message! I currently don’t have any pets in my house, so it’s perfect if your fur babies are shy or don’t do well with other pets.

Genesis was great! We returned home and both cats (Mr. K and Larson were doing well but it was almost as if they were saying “Oh…you’re home?” They loved Genesis and we couldn’t be happier. We highly recommend her!!!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Tyler

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Tyler is $13 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $22 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 116 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Tyler. 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 .

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tyler. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

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 , 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.
