“Rabi was great!! He gave our Kiko plenty of attention, took time and care to bond with her, gave her cuddles and playtime. He also went He extra mile in terms of helping us to watering our plants and put out bins. We came home to a happy and healthy cat. Thanks Rabi! :) ”
“Rebekah did an excellent job of looking after Gozo the cat. Gozo has epilepsy and needs medication four times a day and Rebekah managed this so well. Gozo didn't have any seizures and settled well into Rebekahs calm home. Thank you Rebekah. You are a 🌟”
“It was my first time leaving Saylee(my cat) alone so I was understandably nervous especially as she’s very shy/cautious around people and don’t” trust” easily. However I had anything to worry about.Evie came to meet Saylee a few days before I left on holiday and she took to Evie immediately. Evie provided constant feedback and photos of Saylee whilst I was away which really eased my mind. I came back to a very well fed,well looked after and happy little cat. I will 100% use Evie again.”
“Rebecca was fantastic! I eeally appreciated having someone come who greatly enjoys spending time with cats, even those that are very shy. My cats seemed to really enjoy meeting her and playing with her (one of them)! I really appreciated the thorough updates and pictures. It was a big relief to know my cats were so well cared for!”
“Highly recommend Ruth who kindly looked after our cat again for a whole week - 2 visits per day. Ruth is very reliable and kept us updated that our cat was ok - couldn’t wish for more. Our cat was so settled on our return, she has been well looked after.”
About: Hello! I am a passionate animal lover, recently finished a 4 year Zoology degree, also with a Level 3 diploma in Animal management, so I will ensure to apply academic and practical knowledge to caring for your pets. I have worked at an animal rescue, caring for a wide range of different dog breeds (large and small), cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and a pig! I will meet the needs of both you and your pets, and be sure to keep in as much contact as wished by owner. Also working as a dog sitter/walker for a private owner, since 2019, which gave me many practical skills I can apply to other dog sittings. Please get in touch, I look forward to meeting you and your lovely companions! As I have recently finished university I am currently unemployed so would love to get as many pet sits into my weekly schedule. My calendar is kept strictly up-to-date, I am flexible and can easily accommodate walks any time, drop-ins, and dedicated overnight/day housesits. I will ensure your house is kept perfectly tidy and update you on details of the day. I am very reliable and respectful. I will always keep good hygiene standards around your pets, while keeping a close eye on them guaranteeing their safety and giving them plenty of love!
About: I’ve grown up with a wide variety of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, chickens, fish etc. and enjoy spending time with all animals. We currently have a cat called Murphy who is very independent and enjoys lots of time outdoors. We offer a loving home with plenty of social interaction for your dog. Care will be tailored to your individual pet and their specific needs and routines. (Licenced by Rushcliffe Borough Council for Home Boarding of Dogs AWL-0090) I’m a mum of 3 who is currently on maternity leave so I’m available pretty much every day. I enjoy walking and getting out in the fresh air so your dog will get plenty of exercise. I have a secure fenced off garden for lots of time outdoors. There are also plenty of parks nearby as well as our allotment. Happy for your pet to be part of our family during their stay with plenty of time for love, attention and play.
“Zoe was friendly, flexible, communicative and responsive with us. She went above and beyond to look after the tortoise as well as our two cats. Selene and Cookie both obviously liked and trusted her too!”
“Kay as always, was perfect and absolutely lovely during her visits. She’s extremely attentive to every detail, sending photos, videos, and updates about the visit, which really puts our minds at ease. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough ❤️🥰”

About: I have over 15 years of personal experience caring for cats, from growing up with my family’s 12-year-old senior cat to co-owning a cat for 4 years. I truly understand feline behavior, boundaries, and how to make them feel safe. I've even successfully trained cats to walk on a leash and play treat-guessing games! I am a regular, trusted cat sitter for my friends' pets, and I recently completed a wonderful month-long boarding stay for a cat at my place. I live on my own in a large, quiet house with a big garden, making it a peaceful, stress-free environment for your pets. I have a lot of love to give and plenty of free time right now to focus entirely on your furry friends, whether they stay at my home or I visit yours. While cats are my specialty, I am also very open to hosting or visiting calm, friendly dogs to expand my care experience! I work completely from home, which means my schedule is highly flexible and I am around all day. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods. My daily routine revolves around providing consistent companionship, sticking strictly to your feeding and medication schedules, and building in plenty of dedicated time for play, grooming, and mental stimulation (or leash walks if they are trained for it!). Because I have a lot of free time right now, your pet will truly be my top priority. In My Home: I live alone in a large, quiet house with a big, secure garden, offering a peaceful environment free from the stress of children or other resident pets. Before any stay, I meticulously pet-proof the space. Your pet will have full freedom to roam, explore, and find their favorite cozy spots. I am extremely mindful of open doors and windows to ensure absolute safety. In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and secure. During drop-in visits, I focus entirely on making your pet feel safe and loved while you are away. Communication: Trust is everything to me. I will send you daily updates, photos, and videos so you can see exactly how much fun and love your furry friend is getting!
About: I have 14 years of experience caring for a Poodle, whom I raised from a puppy until he sadly passed away due to old age. I hope to extend the love I had for him to other dogs and cats. I have extensive experience in caring for young dogs, along with endless love and patience I work from home, which gives me great flexibility throughout the day, allowing me to provide high-standard boarding for dogs and cats in a comfortable home environment. When caring for pets, whether in my home or theirs, I focus on: Safety: I ensure the environment is secure and free from hazards, closely monitoring the pets to keep them safe. Trust: I build a bond with the pets by understanding their needs and preferences, and maintain clear communication with their owners. Environment: I provide a clean, comfortable space with access to play and rest, either by adapting my home or maintaining their familiar surroundings.

Amazing!! Leah and Cameron are just our go tos for looking after our kitties. I never worry about our cats as I know they’re in safe hands whilst I’m away. This is our second booking with Leah and we will definitely be back again for another. Thank you both so much for looking after Yoshi and Pichu and for going above and beyond for them. We’re so grateful we found you on here!
This is my second review for Judi and I have to say she really is a fantastic cat sitter. Her communication is excellent, I got lots of lovely updates and pictures. I can tell that she genuinely cares so I know my cats are in safe hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Thanks again Judi!
This was the second time Olaya took care of my cat Mimi. Olaya is so very conscientious, friendly, and just amazing with cats. Mimi trusts and opens up to Olaya easily. Olaya is also very gentle with cats and I’m very grateful that she is very diligent about things like locking doors and handling the keys. She also sent me any photos during the sit which I appreciated. I highly recommend Olaya.
Rebecca was amazing! Super punctual and professional and she got on very well with my cat. She took incredible photos of him including some hilarious action shots of him flying through the air! I will definitely book her again and recommend her animal whispering skills to anyone
Ada and her daughters did a wonderful job of looking after Daisy and Cleo while we were away. Ada's communication was great both at the booking stage and with daily updates during her visits. They put in a lot of effort and care, we would recommend their services and will be using them in the future.

FAQs for Cat Sitting – Rushcliffe
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Rushcliffe on Rover is £14 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £11 and £17 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 753 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Rushcliffe. About 91% of Rushcliffe 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.
