About: With 32 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats — including raising my own cheeky dachshund — I offer calm, loving care that feels just like home. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule, which means I can give pets the attention they need throughout the day — whether that’s morning walks, playtime, or evening cuddles. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow their normal routine and give them lots of love, attention, and care while respecting your space as if it were my own.
“Nobody could've taken better care of Barney than Liam! He left everything in perfect order. He cared for Barney as if she was his own. I can highly recommend Liam to anyone wanting a cat sitter. I don't think you can find anyone better. I would only leave Barney with someone trustworthy who would take great care of her. ”

About: Hello! My name is Elisa and I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by them and have had pets in my life since the day I was born. Over the years, I’ve cared for many different animals and breeds. I’ve had Dachshunds, a German Shepherd, Yorkshire Terriers, a Pinscher, a French Bulldog, and mixed-breed dogs as well. I currently have a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, who is a big part of my life. Because of this experience, I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve also had other pets growing up, including a mixed-breed cat and even a rabbit, which gave me experience caring for different types of animals and understanding their unique needs and behaviours. Caring for animals has always come very naturally to me. I truly enjoy spending time with them, going for walks, playing, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always try to respect their habits and make them feel as comfortable as possible. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and well cared for while you have peace of mind. I would be very happy to look after your pet as if they were part of my own family. I work part-time and I’m also studying, which means I have a structured but flexible routine. I spend a lot of time at home and can dedicate attention, care and playtime to the pets I look after during the week and weekends. I provide a calm and safe home environment for pets. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and routine, making sure they feel comfortable, supervised and well cared for at all times. I treat every pet with patience, kindness and responsibility.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Uttlesford on Rover is £13.8 per Visit (as of July 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 2,177 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Uttlesford. About 91% of Uttlesford 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
