About: I love dogs. I have three at home. I would say I am well mannered and patient as well as attentive to their needs. I’ve had many experiences pet sitting and understand the expectations that are required to care for fur babies. I hope you will consider me! I currently don’t have a full-time job so I’m free anytime and for anything pet parents might need for their fur babies! Please consider me! Having multiple pets in my own home makes cleaning more of a chore so I try to keep everything as clean as possible. My dogs are on an invisible fence and have the whole yard to roam but I still try and play with them as much as I can. I would say I am a cleanly person and would help animals in any way I can!
About: We’ve always been big dog people. Growing up around dogs taught us just how much love, attention, and care they truly need and we genuinely believe pups shouldn’t be left alone for long stretches. That’s why we’re passionate about helping others give their dogs the fun, companionship, and consistent care they deserve when life gets busy. We both adore dogs (they honestly make us so happy and bring us a ton of joy), and we’d be excited to play, cuddle, and keep your pup feeling safe and loved. Over the years, friends and family have trusted us again and again to care for their dogs, whether they’re out of town or just need a helping hand. We also enjoy training, and we’re always patiently working on new tricks and good habits with our golden retriever, Daisy! We have amazing work flexibility. We can work around people's schedules. It would just be a matter of coordinating between me and the owner of the pup. In our home, your dog will have a safe, closed fenced backyard to run and play, plenty of toys, and the company of our friendly golden retriever, Daisy. We keep preventive dog meds on hand for things like allergies, and your pup will always have access to fresh water, food, and a variety of treats.
About: My family has had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up caring for and loving on our own dogs, as well as taking care of family & friends’ dogs of all shapes and sizes. I love breeds of all sizes & am very comfortable with large dogs. I’m currently job hunting so my schedule is pretty free, other than some days off for traveling to visit friends and family. I just got home from Australia where I completed a Master in Marine Biology. I will respect your home & instructions, treating your space like I would my own! I have reliable transportation & am willing to upkeep anything within your home to make your animal the most comfortable.
“Amy took great care of our spoiled 17 1/2 year old cat while we were away on vacation for over a week! She came in once a day to give medication and provide all the necessities. Amy was thorough in her communications with us.”
“This is the 3rd time we have hired Alicia to watch our furbabies while we were out of town. She always does a great job of taking care of all of their special needs. We worry less about them knowing we have someone reliable to check on them. We will continue to hire Alicia as long as she's available!”
“Jordan did a great job following our (many) instructions and bonding with our dogs. She was great about checking in with us when questions came up and sending lots of photos. We definitely felt better about leaving our dogs knowing she was taking care of them. We highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, and ducks for family and friends when they needed someone. I’m very comfortable doing longer periods of time if needed, I love playing with animals on top of just the necessities! I’m currently working part-time and I’m able to schedule around certain times as needed. In the fall I start college again with plenty of break times! I prefer to stay where the animals are used to. I communicate constantly while I’m watching someone else animals by sending pictures, videos, and regular updates.
About: I have had dogs my whole life, and been around others’ as well. I am also a cat owner to a 10 month old kitten. I have experience working in a vet clinic and am starting the CVM program at The Ohio State University in the fall. Currently, I am a college student on summer break with relatively free days. I am also working a part time job, but hours are very flexible. I provide attentive, reliable care for pets in their own home, maintaining their normal routines to reduce stress. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions, keep the environment clean and secure, and prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication with the owner at all times.
“Britton was wonderful! She took great care of the animals, and went the extra mile to make our timid cat comfortable. Her communication was fantastic as well, I would highly recommend her!”
About: I absolutely love animals! I grew up in a home full of dogs and cats, and helping care for them was such a big part of my life growing up. I now have a cat of my own, my fur baby, Fish 🐱 I recently graduated from PA school and won’t be starting my job until August, which means I have lots of availability this summer! Spending my days with animals honestly sounds like the perfect way to spend the season. I’d love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your pets! (: I don’t start work until August, so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of availability! I do have one week-long vacation planned this summer, but aside from that, my schedule is very flexible. I’d prefer to handle most pet care during the week, but I’m available on weekends as well! 😊 It’s a single-story home, so I’m always nearby and able to keep a close eye on any pets in the house. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and play!
“Vanessa was great with our two cats. She sent daily updates and pictures. Made sure she saw both cats and gave them pets and treats. She came during the agreed upon times. Vanessa contacted us when there was an issue with our door and was kind enough to bring in our trash cans for us. Definitely will contact her for our next trip!”
About: I own a husky, american terrier mix, and a cat. I often care for family member pets as well. Whether they are big, small, feline, or canine, I have been around them all and understand how unique each animal can be. I have an open schedule so I can spend as much time with your pet as you like. I am available on weekends for drop-ins, or walks. I understand that each pet and their home deserve the utmost respect. Your needs as well as your pet's are very important to me which is why I will see every request is met.
About: I have 3 dogs at home that I love dearly. I have been caring for them ever since I was young as well as dog sitting for my neighbors and friends. I will care for your pets as if they are my own. If you chose me to care for your loved pets, you won’t be disappointed. Message me with any questions that you might have. Thank you. Im currently a student in my masters program and have plenty of free time to take care of your furry friends:). I love spending time with animals and have open availability, just ask. I can easily follow any directions you ask of me while taking care of your beloved pets. I will do my best to make sure your needs are met as well as your pets!
About: Taking care of animals is just something I love to do, your animals will be in good hands with me. Taken out, fed and given water anytime they need it. I would love to know some things your animals like so I can make sure they don’t feel lonely while you are gone. The last thing I want is your animal to feel lonely or abandoned while you are out. I can adjust my prices to whatever you need. Need to pay less that’s alright I can work with you on that. Taking care of animals is just something I love. Any animal at all, cats,birds,dogs, bunnies or guinea pigs. Anything at all I would love to take care of them ! Im currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to come play with your pups. Im so excited to meet your pups :) I will be letting them out, making sure they get there food and water at the appropriate time & lots and lots of playtime. If you have anything special you want me to do just let me know !
About: I grew up with dogs but now I take care of other people’s dogs! Been dog sitting since 2020 and I have many regular families that love me! I work two part time flexible schedule jobs so I have lots of free time where I check on animals or go for a quick walk/feed! I personally don’t take animals to my own space unless needed, but I will stay the night if you want and always follow detailed instructions!
“Ava has been wonderful! She came to meet Oscar and they hit it off right away. She has been excellent with quick communication and lets me know how the visits have gone. I very much appreciate Ava and couldn’t recommend her enough!”
About: (My boyfriend’s little sister is 11 and heading into middle school, during this summer break she wants to earn some money so I agreed to let her tag along with me and care for pets. She has a huge heart for all kinds of animals and has a golden retriever of her own she loves to take on walks) Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced pet lover who enjoys working with both dogs and cats equally. I grew up with multiple pets, including having three dogs at once, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I also have experience caring for a dog with cancer, including giving medication and providing extra attention and comfort. Because of that, I understand how important patience, gentleness, and trust are when it comes to pet care—especially for animals that may need a little extra support. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, from small to large, as well as puppies and kittens. I truly enjoy spending time with animals—whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just relaxing with them. One of my favorite things is seeing their personalities come out, from their funny habits to their curiosity about everything around them. I currently have an orange cat named Poseidon, so I’m very familiar with daily care routines and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’m always reliable, attentive, and communicative. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure you feel completely comfortable while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits easily into my daily schedule because I currently do not have a job, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day. I am able to give the pet constant attention, regular feeding times, bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and any additional care they may need. Since my schedule is flexible, I can quickly respond to the pet’s needs and make sure they are comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I pride myself on creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and comfort levels to make sure they feel secure and at ease at all times. I always follow any specific instructions closely, keep a clean and pet-friendly space, and take extra care with things like doors, leashes, and feeding routines to ensure safety. I approach every animal with patience, kindness, and respect, allowing them to warm up at their own pace and building trust naturally. My goal is to make your pet feel just as comfortable and cared for with me as they do with you.
About: Hi! My name is Lizzy. I am 26 years old and have been a dog owner for a little over eleven years. I absolutely love animals, especially dogs and cats. Here, on Rover, I am more than happy to offer dog walking and drop-in visits for dog and cat owners. I have experience walking and taking care of my siblings’ daniff mix, Newfoundland, and of course my little doxiepoo, Buster (featured in my profile picture). Also, I have experience working in a dog kennel in Pataskala. I love dogs of all sizes and age ranges. I enjoy long walks and equally enjoy snuggling up with a furry friend. Shoot me a text or give me a call if you would like to know more or book me. Looking forward to getting to know you and your pet(s)! : I’m a stay at home mom, so my two boys would be coming along for the ride when caring for your pet(s). I’m flexible for the most part. I can walk your pet(s), play with them in a fenced in area or in the house. I’m willing to do anything to give your pet(s) attention while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Utica on Rover is $13.32 per visit (as of June 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 .
As of June 2026, there are 12 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Utica. 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 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.
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.
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.
