About: I had my beautiful border collie, Lily, for 13 years and sadly she had to be put to rest this year and we miss her so much. Lily was so energetic up to her last day and me and my partner (who you will see in the profile photos) would take her for walks 2-3 times a day and she always loved some playtime. So we are very much used to walks, plays and doggy routines which we are really missing! We will both give your pet the care, love and attention they need, whether that is cuddles and belly rubs or long walks and fetch. Me and my partner both work from home most days so there will always be one of us available to be at home. We like to take a walk in the morning or on our lunch break (sometimes both) and after work in the evening but we can work this around how much exercise your dog needs. We always have the time (even when working) to provide care and attention and we have a good sized garden for let outs whenever is needed! I will provide as much love, care and attention as possible, just like I would my own doggy! Any additional care needs will be catered for too.

Natalie stepped in last minute to look after our 3 cats when we were let down by our regular sitter. Fast to respond and very reliable. Even the timid one seemed to take to Natalie on her initial visit. We came home to a lovely clean area and happy cats! Thank you Natalie x

Molly was a great sitter, looked after my cat exactly the way I would have done it myself. I was always informed by text and photos, she was really professional. I hope to find her available next time when I travel as well, and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants their pets to be well looked after.

About: Hi! I always had animals in my household, since I can remember. We had dogs, fish, hamsters, a parrot, a turtle and cats! When I was old enough to decide what animal I want to get, I got my first ferret! I currently have a dog, and until recently I had a cat. I have plenty of experience with administering medication to animals, as my dog had a medical condition. I have trained my dog from a puppy, and he is quite well trained and very friendly. I’m an outdoorsy person who loves and adventure, so your animals always will have a lot of play time and walks 🥰 Currently in a process of getting level 3 canine wealthare qualifications. I currently work a full time job, and as mentioned above have a dog. I work 9-5 Monday to Friday and have most weekends off. I have cameras set up around my flat to ensure your pup will be safe while I’m not there. Please message for more information I currently live in a flat, but there is a massive field but where I live, I do drive and I’m more than happy to take your doggies on a drive to go to their favourite spot! Ensuring that they are safely secured, I have a very friendly and socialised puppy to keep your dog company during walks and in general!

About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Now that I’m retired, I have more time to give pets attention, company and care. I love walking my own dogs in the woods, throwing toys for my cat to chase, and I regularly help my kids with their pets when they're away. I regularly look after both cats and dogs and understand that every animal has their own personality, routines and needs. I also have experience of caring for pets who need a little extra attention. I’ve administered medication and have cared for my son’s cat, who has thyroid problems, so I understand the importance of following routines carefully and making sure medication is given as instructed. Having lived with pets for so many years, I know how important it is to leave them with someone you can trust. I’ll treat your pets like I would if they were my own and I'll make sure they are safe, comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to fit pet visits around my day. I’m generally available during the week and can arrange visits around the routine that works best for you and your cat. I’m happy to pop in for feeding, fresh water, litter trays and some company, as well as giving medication if needed. I’ll always make sure I understand your cat’s usual routine before you go so I can keep things as normal as possible for them. I know it can be a big thing trusting someone to look after your cat and have access to your home, so I take that responsibility seriously. When I’m visiting your home, I’ll make sure doors and windows are secure, follow your instructions carefully and keep to your cat’s usual routine as much as possible. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter tray and plenty of attention if they want it. I have experience with cats who need medication, and I’m happy to follow clear instructions and give medication as part of their normal routine. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away, including letting you know how your cat is doing and flagging anything unusual. Most importantly, I’ll treat your home and your cat with the same care and respect I’d want someone to show my own.

It's ok they do make mess at times, Teddy had a few markies this morning as I did try and feed them . But, Donald nicked his food, we have been to the vets about his behaviour again and waiting for a specialist. He has gone back to bulling and nicking teddy's food, so we are concerned. And, have been told to separate them when feeding but Ted won't eat when we do that, so we are in a no win situation. Just give him treats if he doesn't eat, if it persists we may have to consider rehousing Donald. Great job,thanks for doing your best.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, and cats the majority of my life. I’m well custom to all different types of breeds, and any little problem there is. Please beforehand tell me, if there is any behavioural issues. 

 My care differs with cats compared to dogs, as I know in my experience cats have been more sensitive to newer individuals. I’ll also recommend if I can see the cat beforehand. Making a more comfortable experience for all parties. 

I do recommend seeing the animals, before any bookings(Most Important with Cats).... but it's completely up to you. If there's any historical medical emergencies/allergies with the animals please let me know. SAFETY is my number one priority. 

 I provide an easy laidback experience, making you feel completely at ease while I take care of your loved ones. I'll constantly give updates. I've got 3 years of happy experiences. 


(IMPORTANT)
The services I provide are drop in visits x1 and x2. Plus Dog walking. I'll be more than happy to clean the animals "nature callings", when I arrive. Please PROVIDE a safe space to put your keys. When I arrive, please give me instructions where they are... and instruct me where you want them going when I leave. It's saves so much hassle. I'll always have my own toiletries to clean when I arrive(If needed). When I arrive for drop in visits x1, or x2 I'll clean any messes left by your animal. Provide water and food(If wanted). Play for a few minutes then leave. Simple as that.... 

 I provide Dog walking up towards 30-60 min(Can be longer Depends on booking). Can be multiple times a day, with different clients. Please let me know, if you want your Dog on leash or not! Or you don't have a leash. I’m currently working multiple jobs, but I’ll always try to spare the time for these amazing little creatures. I’m quite the player, so they’ll never get bored. If I’m at a clients house, I’ll also come clean, prepared and excited. Respect is my highest priority. I don’t smoke!! No hassles, quick and easy.

We had a great experience with Darcy and found her to be reliable and trustworthy. Everything was done exactly as promised, and all of our instructions were followed carefully. We especially appreciated the detailed updates about Shelly, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.

About: Hi there! Me and my family are dedicated pet sitters who treats every furry guest like family. We live in a pet-friendly detached house located in a quiet and safe house development. Pets can also enjoy fresh air and sunshine in the enclosed garden. Whether your pet loves playtime, quiet cuddles, or scenic walks, I tailor each stay to their personality and needs. I keep a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for — just like at home. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and in good hands. Services we offer: 🐶 Dog boarding & daycare 🐕‍🦺 Dog walks & drop-in visits 🐱 Cat care 💊 Medication administration (if needed) We’m committed to providing top-notch care, clear communication, and peace of mind. Pet care is a natural and enjoyable part of my everyday routine. I structure my days around the pets I host — starting each morning with walks, feeding, and playtime, and keeping plenty of breaks throughout the day for attention, cuddles, and outdoor time. I’m around the house to give pets constant care and supervision. In the evenings, I make sure everyone gets one last round of outdoor time, dinner, and lots of affection before winding down for a calm night. Caring for pets isn’t just a task for me — it’s part of my lifestyle and something I enjoy every day. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel completely safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. I keep a calm, clean environment and tailor each pet’s routine to match what they’re used to at home — including their feeding schedule, walks, and preferred play or rest times. Our building is wonderfully pet-friendly, with an enclosed garden for fresh air and sunshine. Pets have plenty of space to relax or play, and I’m always nearby to give them attention and supervision throughout the day. When I care for pets in an owner’s home, I do my best to maintain their regular routine and environment so they feel secure and happy. I follow all care instructions closely — from feeding and walks to medication and bedtime habits — and make sure the home is left tidy and cared for.

About: I've kept cats and dogs my entire life. Admittedly my canine experience is very slightly less than feline, so no giants please! Everything and anything else though, I will care for as lovingly and attentively as my own four fur babies. I can't wait to meet you and your furry friends! 😁 Currently fulfil a role within my home so am available 24/7. DO NOT HESITATE to contact me regarding availability or catchment area. I would love to hear from you and will respond immediately. It is worth being aware of the fact that we may need to discuss additional travel costs, IF you live outside the St Helens area. Travel can become expensive and time consuming very quickly, so I appreciate your understanding regarding this matter. Let's talk. :) I will NOT accept bookings with elderly (10 years plus) or severely infirmed animals. The stress is too great on the animals to be without thier human for long periods at those ages. I have 4 adult cats to keep your pet company. I have spent a lifetime caring for creatures of one sort or another, and plan to extend all that to your pets. They are our family, after all. Rest assured, I know exactly how important they are to you, as mine are to me. If I am likely to be caring for your animal in your home overnight, access to the internet would be greatly appreciated, if possible. If there are any musical instruments available in your home, I find that playing music for animals can be a really strong bonding tool. I can play anything with keys or strings. As well as a regular grooming routine; Morning and evening brushing for no less than 30 mins per animal, per session. My prices are slightly higher because I offer the highest quality of care available for your animals, anywhere. Bar none. Please check my reviews.

About: My whole life I’ve been caring for dogs and pets of all kinds, I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to calm senior dogs. I’m confident handling all breeds, sizes, and personalities — from playful Chows to gentle rescues. I have experience with basic obedience training, socialisation, and puppy routines, so your dog’s good habits will be kept consistent. Animals are genuinely my passion — I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them the same love, patience, and attention they get at home. What sets me apart? I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, quirks, and comfort zone. Whether it’s a shy pup needing slow introductions or a high-energy dog who loves long walks and playtime, I tailor every visit to what they need most. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine — I’m flexible, always available, and happy to take last-minute requests! Morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles — you name it, I can fit it in. I love keeping dogs active and happy throughout the day, and my schedule allows me to give them my full attention whenever you need me. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first. I’ll be caring for your pet in your home, following your normal routines to keep things familiar and stress-free. I keep a close eye on gates, leads, and food safety at all times, and I’ll always send photo and video updates so you know your furry friend is safe and happy. I respect every home I enter — clean, careful, and trustworthy at all times.

About: I had my shih tzu Lola for 15 years who was my little best friend, she was blind (and deaf towards the end of her little life) so I know how to give your dog some TLC! I have been a dog walker throughout my time at university and volunteered at Carla Lane so I have plenty of experience with dogs. I have a foundation degree in human and animal welfare, and began my studies of animal behaviour in 2018. I work from home most days of the week so I can accommodate for your dog walks in work hours and after work hours, I will try my best to work around you! I don’t have any dogs myself sadly anymore so no need to worry if you’re dog isn’t a social butterfly! My garden is fully fenced and a good size for your dog to run about in, I have a huge park right next to me so your dogs can have a good walk!

Leung did a wonderful job looking after our cat Milo for 10 days. She followed all instructions to the letter and sent me lots of photos and updates every day. Milo clearly loved her because I received videos and photos of him showing her lots of affection. I definitely felt relieved that she was looking after him as if I was there myself and I was able to enjoy our holiday and not worry about him. I will definitely be hiring her again for our next holiday 🙂

Lucy took excellent care of Milo while we were away. She is very kind, friendly, and clearly loves animals❤️❤️. She kept us updated after every visit, which gave us great peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our holiday. Milo’s food bowls and litter tray were always spotless, and when we returned home, Milo was healthy, relaxed, and very happy. It was obvious that he had been very well looked after.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I would highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter.❤️❤️❤️

FAQs for Cat Sitting – Knowsley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Knowsley on Rover is £13.8 per Visit (as of September 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 .

There are 1,583 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Knowsley. About 91% of Knowsley 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. 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.
