About: I have lived with and been around dogs my entire life. While I don't have as much experience with cats, I love them just the same! My biggest priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy under my care. I currently work full time on weekdays and am free after 4:30pm, and free most weekends. I'm happy to assist with your pets any way I can! I live in a fairly small apartment (about 540 sqft) but I ensure pets under my care are completely comfortable. By default, I let pets roam the apartment freely but I have no problem accommodating crating as well.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always been the go-to sitter for friends and family. I also volunteer with Furry Friends Pet Rescue, where I’m approved to walk and care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. In addition, I’ve volunteered at the Humane Society, gaining hands-on experience with dogs that require extra patience and care. Whether it’s playing, feeding, walking, or just keeping dogs company while their people are away, I bring experience, empathy, and genuine love to every pup I meet. I’m a student at USF with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available most afternoons after class and all day on weekends for walks or drop-ins. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I provide care in your home where your dog feels most comfortable. Whether it’s walks, feedings, or playtime, I make sure your dog feels safe and loved while you’re away. I always follow care instructions carefully and treat every home with the respect and professionalism it deserves.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I would love to walk and love on your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I love walking in and seeing the smiles when they know they get to go for a walk! I’m a local PreK teacher so my schedule is usually free after 3:30 on weekdays, but my weekends are usually wide open! Growing up I always had animals in my house so I’m very comfortable with messes they make or medicine they need, so if your babies need that too I’d be more than happy to help! If you’re looking for someone to have your pets feel comfortable and happy all day, even while you’re away, I’d love to be that person! I'm currently a PreK teacher at a local elementary school, so my weekdays are open starting around 3:30 pm! On the weekends, I usually hang out at home or around town, so my schedule is pretty flexible! In your home, I promise to follow whatever makes your pets the most comfortable! Whether your dogs like to lounge on the couch or feel more content in a crate, I'll do whatever you'd like!

About: I’ve grown up with many different types of animals and love all of them. I look forward to working and playing with your animals and doing whatever is needed for the furry friends. I can watch animals around my college class times. I’m pretty flexible and can work around different times. Weekends along with week days will both work. I can give pets walks, feed them, and play with them for long periods of time. I am flexible with what is needed for different animals.

“I had such a great experience with Madison! She did drop-in visits for my cat over the course of 5 days and went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for. She was attentive, gentle, and clearly experienced with cats. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Madison to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

About: Hi, I’m Troy ! I’ve been the trusted, go-to pet sitter for my friends and family for years, specializing in multi-day house sitting for both dogs and cats. Throughout my life, I have rescued multiple dogs—including large breeds—and have extensive experience managing complex health needs ranging from severe skin conditions and allergies to senior dogs dealing with cancer. Because of this, I am completely comfortable following precise medical schedules and specialized diets. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk, an active play session, or just a patient, loving companion to maintain their comfort and routine while you are away, I treat every animal I watch like my own family! As a recent college graduate I have a lot of free time. I am currently waiting for online grad school to start up. I couldn’t think of a better way to make a living than to help take care of our furry friends. I love cats and dogs and have lived with both for my whole life and taken care of family and friends pets for years. With my schedule being so open I am more than comfortable and available to cat or dog sit for multiple days, for routine walks throughout the week, and even for simple play and interaction whenever needed! Your pet's safety and peace of mind are my absolute top priorities. When caring for your furry family member in your home, I treat your space with total respect and strictly adhere to your established household routines to keep their stress levels low. Because of my extensive background with rescues and high-needs pets, I am incredibly observant, hyper-vigilant about locking doors/gates, and completely comfortable following precise medication or dietary instructions. You can count on me for regular, transparent communication and plenty of photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, secure, and loved just like they are my own.

About: I have worked with cats and dogs for many years. I have trained my own dog who is very well tempered and I have administered different types of medicines to older and younger animals! I have a very open schedule as a college student and love spending time with animals! I love going on walks and being outdoors, weather doesn’t matter to me! I live in a nice neighborhood with a dog park walking distance away, and I have no other animals so that yours can be the center of attention!

About: Your pet helps me be a better human. I’ll spend time with them while they tell me about how amazing their life already is and where the treats are in the pantry.:) I’m a proud pawrent of several rescue dogs and cats with the occasional foster kitten/adult cat drop in. 18 years in animal welfare shelter work. I’m patient. That’s the key. If your pet wants to snuggle, awesome, if not, it’s ok, I can be that human who just chills for a bit of company, no pressure. I’m here for them, not for you.

About: I am currently a dog walker and have worked at shelters since I was 13. I love animals more than I love anything on Earth. Time spent with dogs is time well spent. My passion in this world is to take care of animals and make sure that they are the happiest they can possibly be at all times. I hope to one day open my own dog boarding facility where I can fulfill my dreams. I love dogs of all shapes and kinds. I have dealt with special needs dogs, senior dogs, sick dogs, etc. I am friendly and enthusiastic. I would treat your pet like my own at all times and love it like I would mine. Please ask me any questions you may have! I work a full time job, but have plenty of time before and after shifts that I can make myself available for your pet needs. I love doing drop in visits and dog walks for my clients. I get to bring a little bit of fun to the pets day and still fit that into my daily schedule.

Morning, night, dog walking, cat sitting, whatever is needed. I can't have pets at my home, but I have a very open schedule in terms of coming to your home and doing whatever is needed for your pets.

About: I’m a dedicated and attentive caregiver with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have also cared for reptiles over the years, so I understand the unique attention and care each species requires. Whether your companion has fur, feathers, or scales, I provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to their needs. I have experience with dogs, cats, bunnies, and reptiles, and I always follow specific routines to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and detail-oriented. From feeding and playtime to medication schedules and special instructions, I handle every task with the same dedication I give to my own pets. I truly love giving animals the special attention they deserve, and you can trust that your pets will receive the highest level of care while in my hands. I work on Monday-Friday from 7:30 am to 4 pm I will be available after 4pm for any fur babies that need a sitter. I do need notice for the weekend! I care for pets in clients home and also do drop ins when needed and however you need it as well. I am good with most services and will be able to accommodate with your needs as well as the fur babies needs too!

I love animals and being able to experience and share those moments also with owners I’m currently trying to go to college so, I have a lot of free time to take care of and have fun playing with your furry friends. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priority. I understand that pets are family, and I will treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and respect I would want for my own. I will carefully follow your instructions, keep a close eye on your pet, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. You can have peace of mind knowing that your furry family member is in caring and responsible hands.

If I could leave a 6-star review for Ari, I would. She's been, hands-down, the most attentive sitter I have had to care for my animals. She's not just a "pet sitter", as she goes above and beyond to make sure things aren't amiss, which I believe is a more important aspect of a sitter. It's not the things that are planned out well that I would be worried about, but rather the things that I haven't considered, and Ari was always one step ahead of me. We had a tropical storm during my time away, and she kept me updated, offering to go over additional times if needed. She kept me well-informed about my babies with detailed photos and written logs, which is a first for me (even on Rover). In my opinion, Ari went above and beyond the expected with her attentiveness to detail, care for my babies, and transparency about what was happening and had yet-to-happen. 6/5 stars!

Anessa is by far the most amazing sitter I’ve ever had. My cat Nunu warmed up to Anessa instantly by her calm demeanor. Anessa was incredibly patient and respectful of his boundaries. Instead of forcing interaction, she simply stood still and let him come to her on his own terms.She took such great care of him, followed all of my instructions carefully, made sure he was fed, and spent time playing with him. I also really appreciated all of the pictures and updates she sent throughout the visits. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. You can truly tell that Anessa understands animals and genuinely cares about them. She went above and beyond to make sure my shy little guy felt safe and loved. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive pet sitter!

From the moment we met Lauren we knew our fur babies were in good hands. Very friendly and engaging, listened to the different diets our cats have to be on and followed the instructions to the letter! We also have an anxious pup when the storms start and she administered her anxiety medication perfectly. Kept in touch with regular updates including photos every day. Came back to a clean house with very happy and contented fur babies. Lauren is a star and we will DEFINITELY ask her to sit again when we have some vacation. Thank you Lauren x

FAQs for Cat Sitting - University

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in University is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 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.

As of November 2026, there are 1,082 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across University. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 boxes. 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 socialization 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.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program 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 have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have 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 are 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 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in University. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 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 reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
