“Sue was a 10/10 hire. She looked after our 2 senior cats while we were away. Sue was very attentive and it is clear that she has the care of the cats at heart, not just for the money. You won't regret having Sue look after your fur babies and we won't hesitate to have her in our house again. Sent updates daily and wanted to know the ins and outs of our cats routines for their comfort. Thank you Sue!”
“Not the first time I have chosen Kia to look after my kitties. This time was long term and she was reliable and took good care of my cats also updated me with every visit Highly recommended cat sitter ”
“georgia was a really good sitter! i had her for drop in visits over two weeks for my cat maho while i was travelling home. maho also took a liking to her very early on. thank u for taking care of maho and sending pictures and videos every time. would definitely rebook if i need a sitter for maho again :)”
“This was our first time using Ellie, and we have already tentatively booked her for our next one. Excellent communication both before and during the visits, photos on each visit and the place has been left immaculate. Our normally hesitant rescue cats took to her immediately - always a good sign for us!”
About: I am a Registered Veterinary Nurse with a passion for providing the best care to all pets. I had my dog for almost 13 years and prior to that, we would dog sit for family friends going away. I have recently adopted an older rescue cat on lifelong medication. With my profession I am comfortable with caring for all kinds of pets including reptiles and rodents. I also have experience medicating a myriad of species so would be happy to assist with this if your pet(s) require anything throughout the day. Growing up I've volunteered and worked at a number of different kennels and catteries local to me and I have since been volunteering at a cat sanctuary for almost three years and love spending my free time with animals. I am a very active person with my favourite hobbies being walking and going to the gym so you can rest assured I would meet your pets exercise and enrichment needs to keep them happy and settled in your absence. My services include home boarding with your pets, walking, bathing, medicating, house visits and spending quality time with your pets in your absence. I’m currently working part time so my mornings and evenings are typically free on the days I work and I have the whole day free on my days off to spend with your fur-babies I’m comfortable keeping your pets as close to their typical routine as possible to keep them stress-free. I can walk and medicate at the same times of day and can regularly update you with pictures for piece of mind
“Jane was fantastic. She did 2 drop in visits for my 3 cats. 2 are nervous rescue cats who seem entirely unperturbed by the whole event so I know she was fab with them. The other is an my 16 yr old cat who has some health issues. Jane administered medication (crushed tablets and liquid) as well as feeding all 3 and cleaning up after them. I was so grateful that Jane took such good care of my poorly old cat with no complaint at all. Could not have asked for more!”
“Caley was absolutely fantastic, I cannot recommended her enough! She looked after our cats really well, provided excellent updates and kept the place tidy. Thank you Caley, we will book with you again!”
About: I am extremely patient and have many years training and looking after multiple dogs and cats, my dad trained dogs for the police and has taught me everything he knows as i grew up around lots of different animals with different temperaments. I am also a pet photographer so expect some amazing photos I have just finished Uni and work as a music and Pet photographer so my schedule is very flexible, due to working at concerts i am sometimes unavailable on weekends I have a large flat with lots of space for playing and chilling, it is always clean and tidy. I have no garden but live central and close to many different parks. I have a cat of my own who is very chill and gets along with dogs and other cats.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life, starting in childhood, and it's a passion that's never faded. I raised my own dog from a puppy, so I understand firsthand what it takes to house-train, socialize, and build good habits with young dogs — from teaching basic commands to managing that puppy energy safely. I also volunteer with the RSPCA, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs from all kinds of backgrounds, including rescues, anxious dogs, and seniors needing a little extra patience and gentle care. Whether it's a quick drop-in to feed and let your pup out, or a longer walk to tire them out, I treat every dog like my own — with patience, attention, and genuine love for the job. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I can easily build pet visits and walks around my day rather than squeezing them into a rushed window. That flexibility lets me be responsive too — if you need a last-minute visit or your schedule changes, I can usually adjust to make it work. Your pet's wellbeing isn't an add-on for me; it's something I can genuinely prioritize and check in on throughout the day. When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same respect and care as I would my own. I follow your instructions closely — feeding schedules, medication, routines, and any specific rules you have (e.g. no furniture, certain rooms off-limits, leash preferences). I always make sure doors and gates are securely closed before and after visits, keep an eye out for anything that seems off with your pet's behaviour or health, and will contact you straight away if I'm ever concerned. For walks, I keep dogs securely leashed at all times, avoid busy roads or off-leash areas unless you've said it's okay, and stay alert to other dogs, wildlife, or hazards along the route. I also make sure your home is left exactly as I found it — lights, doors, and any security measures back to how you left them. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first, and I'm happy to send updates or photos during visits so you have peace of mind while you're away.
About: Hi !! I love animals and love taking care of them, and I would love to play with every dog/cat in the world if I could !! I have always had at least 3 animals at home, currently we have 4 cats and 1 dog. I have pet sat before for family and friends including house visits, toilet breaks, feeding time, and playing time too. I have always loved looking after animals and get a long with all of them. I’m currently in y13 at blackpool sixth form, finishing my exams at the end of June. I work part time at the Tavern At The Mill in Thornton, and love to spend my free time doing random side quests anywhere and everywhere. I have a fenced garden, as well as a german shepherd called Dexter who is super friendly and loves to meet new dogs and make friends. I have 4 cats who sometimes aren’t too keen on Dexter but they keep their distance, sometimes they even tolerate him ! My house is very spacious and our back garden big with the majority of it being grass, great for a quick toilet break !
About: Hi, I have always been an animal lover and, having grown up with a cat in the family home from the age of 2 years old, I have a particular affection for our feline friends. I have been a cat owner on and off for the whole of my adult life and have often looked after family's and friend's pets (cats, dogs, fish, birds and even a rat) whilst they have been away on holiday. I don't currently have a fur-baby of my own, however, I am considering fostering with a local cat charity and would love to look after your beloved kitty whilst you are away. I am honest and reliable and will lovingly care for you pet(s) so that you can rest assured that they are being well looked after in your absence. I work all day so would do a short visit in the morning, but them spend plenty of time in the evening trying to find and then playing with your loved one. For cats - I work all day during the week so would conduct a short visit in the morning to feed and clean litter trays, but will spend plenty of time with them in the evening to make up for the short visit in the morning.....stroking, cuddling, playing or just hanging out to offer company. For dogs - With working long days during the week, I can only offer dog-walking services on Saturdays and Sundays at this present moment in time. That said, I will lovingly take your best friend on a lovely walk to stretch our legs and get some fresh air. Apologies but, unfortunately, I cannot offer boarding servises at my house or house-sitting services in owner's homes at this present moment in time.

Kia was extremely attentive to our 3 cats.She kept us updated daily on events both good & bad (a few accidents which she cleaned up well). We have already booked her for a future sit. The cats really love staying at home & they really had a excellent carer in Kia. They loved their cuddles almost as much as the food 😻😸🐾
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 😻😻😻 Cori, Angus & Gizzy here… apparently we’ve been asked for our opinion again! 😹🐾 Eliska came back to look after us and, yes, we approve. Meals arrived, litter trays were sorted, fuss was given, playtime happened and our usual high standards were met. We each have our own little ways — and obviously we’re all in charge 😂 — but Eliska knows us really well now and somehow manages to keep all three of us happy. Our humans also get their little photo updates after every visit so they can check we’re okay. We mainly use this as an opportunity to pose, look adorable and prove that we are coping perfectly well without them. 😹📸 We’re really comfortable with Eliska and always get plenty of care and attention when she visits. So yes… she can definitely come back again. Five stars from the three furbabies. Although technically that’s fifteen stars, because there are three of us. 😹⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lots of purrs and paw prints, Cori, Angus & Gizzy 😻😻😻🐾❤️

FAQs for Cat Sitting – Blackpool
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Blackpool on Rover is £13 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £12 and £18 per Visit.
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.
There are 617 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Blackpool. About 94% of Blackpool sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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 trays. 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 socialisation 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've 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're 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'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 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 booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
