“Cheryl is amazing at communication and kept me at ease my entire trip! Already rebooked her for my next travel plans! Both my cats loved her and enjoyed her visits.”
About: I’ve been pet/house sitting since I was 13! I have experience from puppies and kittens to senior pets in diapers! I am very open to adjusting to whatever you and your pet needs to feel the most comfortable while you’re away! I am pretty flexible! I work a job at Orangetheory Fitness in Destin. Sometimes that means a few hours in the mornings or evenings I need to be at work. If necessary I’m able to find coverage fairly easily. I also do training at Eglin airforce base some days which can take a few hours of my time. Again, that is also fairly flexible when it comes to scheduling! I love to stay active-so I’m always up for making sure your pets are well cared for with the time I have around my commitments! I am more than happy to stay overnight with your pet if needed. Or, if your dog does well with others I would be happy to have them in mine. I am very flexible when it comes to arrangements for your pets care!
“Chasity was phenomenal! She jumped in last minute to help my family through an emergency. She took the worry of caring for my two high energy dogs off my plate. Thanks a bunch!”
About: No dog or any situation would be too big or difficult. I love dogs and want to make it a career, so why not start here. I’m 25, currently living in Shalimar, FL. I drive so the distance really isn’t a problem when it comes to the weekend I am free any time but when it comes to the weekday I’m free any day after 8 am. Dogs really are the key to happiness so why not make a little extra cash doing what makes you happy, your dog would be treated like another member of my family because I know of I were in your shoes I’d only want to trust someone who cared about dogs as much as I do. I know life can get busy so why not just have someone take the load off. I work for a cruise line but I’m currently not working the Winter months meaning I have full availability weekends or weekdays for walking, feeding, and possible sleepovers. I have open availability as I am not working the winter months this giving me ample opportunity to move my schedule to fit your pets. I always prefer to have a meet up with pet and owner, I do prefer to keep pet in their natural environment to keep them comfortable and on the same routine.
“I'm giving Bianca 5 stars because she communicated and sent us pictures of Leo (cat) every day. Leo is over 1 year old and he started to get nervous around people however per the pictures he felt comfortable with Bianca so that gave us peace of mind while traveling. We're happy with Bianca so already booked with her again. Thanks”
About: I love pets and have taken care of all kinds of animals! Some of which had a multitude of needs. I have experience administering medication, special diets and with interactive exercise; whatever care your pet requires! I personally have owned large and small breed dogs, cats, and senior pets who have had complex medical needs. :) I have plenty of free time to care for your pet! I work my current schedule around bookings so your cat or dog will always come first. I can easily fit into your pets current routine at home so there is not a huge change of pace when you are gone! I will try to keep things as “normal” as possible for your pet.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over six years, and spending so much time around animals has taught me that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating. My experience includes caring for dogs both in Colombia and in the U.S., as well as cats, so I’m comfortable with different temperaments and daily care needs. I’m patient, dependable, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I treat every pet with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would expect for my own. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, going on walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care every visit. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they receive the care and attention they need. I provide attentive, reliable care in the client’s home to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any special care needs such as medications or senior support. I focus on creating a calm and safe environment while owners are away, making sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I also keep owners updated as needed so they have peace of mind during every visit.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Valparaiso
Caron was an absolute pleasure to work with! She has excellent communication skills—she sent me daily updates and pictures of my cats, and whenever she had a question, she quickly reached out to make sure she was doing everything right. My cats usually take some time to warm up to new people, and Caron was wonderfully patient and accommodating with them. She also went above and beyond when our car broke down and we needed care for an extra day, stepping right in to help without hesitation. When we finally made it back, my cats were calm, happy, and well-fed. Their water fountains were clean and filled, and she had even thoughtfully changed the cat box pads before our arrival so I didn't have to worry about it after a long trip. My home was also kept secure and left in great shape. I cannot recommend Caron enough and will definitely book her again!
Erika did a wonderful job taking care of my cat, Tig. I really appreciate that she spent time with him and even went the extra step to refresh his water and sweep up. This is the second time she’s watched Tig, and she continues to be reliable and caring. Highly recommend!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Valparaiso is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 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.

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.

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.
