About: I moved in with my partner from my family home nearly 3 years ago, where I cared for my family dog for over 18 years and continue to do on a regular basis. I now also have two 3 year old dogs of my own, pugs Nellie and Nala! I have cared for a variety of dogs via Rover since January 2024, and also for friends and family’s dogs over the years, of all sizes and ages. I work from home 3/5 days of the working week, with a fair amount of flexibility in my schedule. Because of all of this, I am able to care for your fur babies when I am home in the week. I am available for dog walks or drop-ins for your pets throughout the day in the week. I drive and I am happy to have your pets in the car strapped in with a bed or blanket (or a cage if this is your preference and what they are used to) if required. For walks, my preference is to remain on a long lead regardless of if they have a good recall or not. Please do drop me a message if you would like more details on my experience with dogs, or if you have any questions about how I can cater to your fur baby 😊 I work from home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and I can be available on weekends with a relatively flexible schedule throughout all of these days. If you would require me to visit your home to care for your dog, it would be great to visit, or have a video call, beforehand so I can familiarise myself with the space and where everything is to care for your pet.
“I was initially a bit anxious about using CIAF for the first time but Lorna eased all of my worries at our meeting and was happy to answer any questions before we left. Whilst away we had daily updates and pics from Lorna which we really appreciated. Would 100% recommend Lorna and wouldn't hesitate to use her again next time we are away.”

On the dates agreed, Rosie was on time and spent the time feeding them, generally getting to know them and also sent pictures. Both furry boys seemed happy and content and I will definitely be using Rosie again.”
“First time we ever use services like this for our cat. Initially we were a bit nervous but then we went ahead and booked it. Ashley came and met with us ahead of time and we introduced him to our pet. He’s been looking after our cat while we were away and she loved it. Ashley is responsible and genuinely care about animals. He provided us with pictures and updates throughout the whole time. I would strongly recommend Ashley and we would definitely use his services again in the future.”

I’m so grateful for Gemma’s thoughtful and attentive approach—we’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: For the past 3/4 years I’ve taken care of a friends dog and cat whenever they’ve been away on holiday. I’ve also got experience with my own pets including dogs, fish, finches, quails and hamsters. I have a part time job, I tend to work three days a week Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Typically from 8am to 1pm. I will always make sure your pet is cared for nonetheless I love spending time with any pets. I always like to make sure their needs are met and they are happy. I make sure feeding schedules are met and any other requirements are fulfilled.
About: I am an experienced qualified veterinary nurse of 10+ years working locally. I cat sit for a a couple veterinarians who love their cats dearly and for family. I am a definite cat mad gal, I have always had a cat in my life. I currently have two rescue cats named Otto and Eevee. ! I also used to own a horse and have owned rabbits in the past so have very good experience and knowledge in caring for them too.
About: I’ve looked after animals for as long as I can remember — it’s not just something I do, it’s who I am. I’m at home full-time, which means I can give animals the time, attention, and care they truly deserve. Whether it’s keeping them safe, happy, well-fed, exercised, or simply keeping them company, their wellbeing always comes first. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and loved. From quiet cuddles to playtime and daily care, I treat every animal as if they were my own. If you’re looking for someone reliable, patient, and genuinely devoted to animals, you can rest easy knowing they’ll be in caring hands with me. It will fit in because I am a stay at home mum and my children are older so it is just me looking after the pets. I have fenced garden and outdoor cattery and locked and I have security cameras over the property. The animals have a large Area to relax and exercise.
“Anna was so lovely with our Mila. I was really worried to leave my cat with no human contact during the day so i booked her in for 2 visits a day for 4 days and Anna kept me informed of Mila's progress with lots of photos. Would definitely recommend her to anyone and I would certainly book her in the future if needed.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Friends, family and neighbours regularly trust me to walk, feed and look after their pets. I’m patient, reliable and always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable and well looked after. I’m also fully insured for extra peace of mind. I work part-time alongside caring for children, which means I have a flexible routine that fits well around pet care. I’m used to being responsible, organised and attentive, and I plan my schedule to ensure every pet gets the time, care and attention they need. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins or longer stays, I’m able to provide reliable and consistent care throughout the week. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home, so I always treat it with the same care and respect as my own. While looking after your pets, I’ll also make sure your home is kept clean, secure and well cared for. I’m reliable, tidy and attentive to any instructions, so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

Couldn’t have been happier with Maria while she looked after my 2 furballs Biscuit and Jet. I received regular updates and felt completely reassured while I was on holiday that they were in good hands, came home to very happy cats and wouldn’t hesitant to use Maria again. Thank you ☺️ xx
I want to thank Sheila for taking care of my cats Marley and Jazzy. She kept us updated daily and sent lots of photos of both of them. This put my mind at rest. Nothing was a problem for her. I would definitely book her again should we go away on holiday . Sheila has a lovely personality and is very friendly and experienced. Thank you so much Sheila.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Castle Point on Rover is £14.95 per Visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 6,581 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Castle Point. About 90% of Castle Point 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 occured. 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 on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
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 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 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

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.
