“Rabi is an excellent cat sitter who provides an outstanding service.He is very professional and reliable and even put the recycling bin out for us without being asked. Our cat Sooty adores him.

About: Hello!

I hold an enhanced DBS check, ensuring your pets and home are in safe and trustworthy hands. 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 been around dogs for as long as I can remember, having grown up with our family Jack Russell. From the age of 17, I also began helping out with my mum’s dog walking business, which has given me valuable hands on experience caring for and walking dogs. I’ve also had a family cat for five years, so I have experience caring for cats and understand the importance of providing them with the right attention, affection and care. I love getting to know each pet’s individual personality and making sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable. Whether it’s taking dogs for walks, playing with pets or keeping them company, I’m caring, patient and reliable. I’ll always do my best to make sure your pet feels loved and well looked after while you’re away. I’m happy to fit pet care around my weekly schedule and will always aim to be flexible where possible. I can arrange walks and visits in advance to suit both you and your pet, and I’ll communicate clearly about my availability to make sure your pet receives reliable, consistent care. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my priority. I’ll take the time to understand their individual needs, routines and personality so they feel safe and settled in my care. When visiting a pet owner’s home, I’ll respect your home and follow your instructions carefully, including feeding routines, walking preferences and any specific care requirements. I’ll always make sure pets are supervised appropriately, kept secure on walks and given plenty of attention, affection and playtime. I’m reliable, responsible and caring, and I’ll keep you updated so you can feel reassured that your pet is in safe hands.
“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 ❤️🥰”
“Job has been amazing with my 11 week old pup - she’s always on time for her visits in the week, keeps me updated throughout with photos and videos and keeps my mind at ease. I would highly recommend Jo to anyone!”
About: As I work fully remote I can easily bring my laptop with me to complete my day job whilst being flexible enough to tend to, play with and look after pets. I am available currently for quick 30 minute drop-ins to check on the cat, give them wet and/or dry food, empty their litter tray and play/fuss the cat as much as I can. I quietly live by myself and usually spend most of my time with my cat, so I am always around and available to tend to her and play with her. I have her dry food on an automatic schedule and feed her wet food in the morning, so she is able to still be independent when I am not around.
About: After years of looking after my own pets (dogs,cats and rodents) I feel ready to extend my love and care to other animals. I have experience training difficult dogs both big and small, this includes behavioural issues such a resource guarding and settle training. I have devoted much of my time to ensuing my own pets experience the best care possible including a range of enrichment and exercise. I have been a trusted pet sitter to my own family and friends for a good while and feel ready to care for others. I am currently working toward my dog first aid certification. I work part time as a waitress however this is only around 15 hours per week. I also am a silversmith (jewellery) however this is from my home studio and i create my own hours for this. Trust worth, safe walks and drop ins for pets. Every dog I look after i treat as my own. My dog is 14 and doesn’t enjoy big walks anymore, unlike me.
“Laurel looked after our cat Jinx for 10 days and sent us regular pics and update of him. She was always happy to help in other way like trying to make sure his tracker was changed so we could see where he was at all times. We will definitely be asking Laurel again next time we go away. Thank you x”
About: Hey, I’m Malaya! 🐶 Having owned two dogs, a highly active working line German Shepherd, and a typical stubborn, snoozy Chow Chow, as well as dog walking professionally alongside a qualified dog trainer, I’ve gained plenty of experience working with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments! I’m committed to providing reliable, loving pet care that’s tailored to the unique needs and routine of your pup. I aim to communicate with owners promptly, and as an avid photographer, my clients often receive high-quality pawtraits! Walks with me typically involve: - a lot of play! This play is an amazing way to encourage engagement - a lot of sniffing! Dogs use their noses for everything and there’s no way I’d stop that - a lot of rewards! Whether your dog is a foodie or a toy dog, or even just a verbal praise kind of pup, they’ll be getting lots of it! Creating high value in our relationship is so important - lots of water and lots of shade! We all know how hot summers in the UK can be, and so, in warm weather, we take a lot of breaks and practice some settling in the shade - up-keeping your training plan! While I am not a dog trainer professionally, I am more than happy to keep you any key elements of your dog’s training that you need! As a university student living in Beeston, I have a relatively flexible schedule and can give your pup the best whilst you’re away! I’d love the opportunity to work with you and your pup! Any questions, just shoot me a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible 😊 I currently attend university a few hours a week so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet! During all services, I seek to follow owner guidance in order to ensure a seamless experience for the pups, in order to maintain their regular routine and help them feel most comfortable! Please note that I will not offer drop-ins and/or overnight stays if anyone is home. This is for my personal safety. When looking after your pets in your home, I hope to be an extension of you personally! Please leave instructions for me to follow (unless verbally communicated) and I’ll be sure they’re done!
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.
“Aitana was incredibly friendly, professional, and gave lovely updates and pictures when she attended a visit to feed our cat. She was also very flexible with us at quite short notice. I would 100% recommend to anybody - thank you so much for your help, Aitana! X”
About: I have had pets throughout all my life growing up, including dogs, cats and even fish! Right now I currently have 2 cat brothers (Saiki and Kira) and a dog (Elsa). I’ve got lots of experience looking after animals from this alone, including kittens and puppies that I have had to train. Also, I have experience cat sitting and dog sitting overnight for friends and family. For 6 years now I have looked after my aunties dog whenever she goes on holiday and stayed round to look after her 3 cats. Overall, I am well experienced with the many nuances of animal care and know how to attend to the specific requirements of each individual animal. On top of that, i just love animals and so will look after them with the greatest care and consideration. I’m currently on holiday after finishing my a levels and so have plenty of time to go around to feed, play and stay overnight. I have 2 cats and a dog to which I have access to cat and dog toys, treats or whatever is necessary for your animals needs. I am open to bringing anything round to entertain and make them feel comfortable. I love all animals and hope to make you feel confident in my ability to keep them safe, well fed and entertained!
About: Hello! I’m Caz, Caroline. I’m 29 years old, and I have just moved to Beeston with my fiancée. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, starting with my childhood pup, a loyal working cocker spaniel who taught me the ropes of care, companionship, and understanding the needs of our furry friends. Whether your dog needs special attention, plenty of exercise, or just a reliable, loving home-away-from-home, I’m here to provide exactly that! Of course, every week is different and I’m here to help whenever and wherever I can. I currently work for Boots, and pretty flexible with when I have to be in the office. Whether your pet is in my home or I’m caring for them in your home, my priority is always to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Here’s how I tailor my care to each situation. In both cases, communication is important to me. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages to give you peace of mind while you’re away, and ensure your pet gets the love, care, and attention they need.

Cat owners share their Rover experiences - Rushcliffe
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

FAQs for Cat Sitting – Rushcliffe
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Rushcliffe is £14 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £11 and £17 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.
There are 749 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. On Rover:
- 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 78% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 89% 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.
