Alyssa is very reliable, on time, and took wonderful care of my cat, Oggy. I really appreciated the updates with photos and notes, it made me feel so much more relaxed while I was away. When I got home, my cat was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with her again.

Maria was great! She was very responsive to all messages, asked questions, and sent very cute pictures. I had zero anxiety leaving my cats with Maria and would absolutely have Maria watch my babies again!

About: I have had all kinds of different pets, including dogs, cats, hamsters, hermit crabs, guinea pigs, and fish. I have also taken care of horses and saved a wild turtle. I will watch any kind of pet, even snakes and bugs. I have always been an avid animal lover and would love to meet and care for your pets! I am currently working at a grocery store part-time. I will need at least a one week notice so I can make sure I can be there for your pets. I have no other obligations besides making sure your pets are happy! I am willing to do whatever makes your pets most comfortable. I love sitting on the couch and cuddling or playing outside in the yard! I also love going out on walks or for a treat! I can assist in crate training should that be needed. I am very flexible!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and I currently live with two small dogs that I’ve been taking care of for the last 8 years. I have a lot of experience with both extremely small dogs like Miniature Yorkies as well as large dogs like German Shepards. I think I’m also very good puppies and I would be happy to answer any questions you might have about me. I’m currently a college student with a very flexible schedule so I can take care of your pets at almost all hours of any day. If you need me to check on your pets at 2AM that’s fine with me.😊 I am happy to accommodate for your pets and keep their schedules as normal as possible while you are away. I can take them for their daily walk or continue feeding them at their normal times.

We were so happy with Maddie! She took amazing care of Onyx our black lab and Nia our cat while we were away, sending daily updates with pictures and letting us know how they were doing. Onyx and Nia seemed completely relaxed and happy when we got back, which is the best indication of how well they were treated. Maddie is clearly passionate about animals and we felt completely confident leaving our furry family member in her hands. We will definitely be booking them again for our next trip!

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life! I also began pet sitting at a very young age. I’ve dealt with dogs and cats of ages that range from newborn to 15. I also have experience working in an animal boarding facility. I was tasked with taking care of 50 dogs and several cats at a time as well as cats and bunnies on occasion. I administered medication and meals that followed strict diets. I would also walk each pup daily (if required by owner). I have a love for all pups and I will always do whatever I can to ensure they are happy and taken care of! I work 10-3 on weekdays and either afternoons or evenings on weekends. Other than that I am usually free and can be very flexible! As of now, I am living in an apartment. There is a dog park nearby with plenty of room for pups to run and play.

Jessica was very professional including communication and throughout her visits. Our dog loved her from the beginning. We arranged 3 drop-in visits for our dog. She was always prompt, kept us updated on how he was eating/taking potty breaks, played with him and sent us several photos or videos each drop-in. She went above and beyond to bring a package in off of our porch and spent a few minutes over the 30 minutes we agreed on for each visit. We highly recommend her to anyone!

About: Hello everyone! My name is Allie and I’m a lover of all animals. I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats since birth but took on caring for my very first cat Prince at the age of 5 and never stopped! Our family currently has 4 kitties (Kitzie, Luna, Pizza and Meatball) and two pups Luke and Charlie. They are all rescues and came to us with a number of different needs. Growing up I spent many of my weekends and summers pet sitting for family, friends and neighbors and now as an adult with a family of my own I enjoy it even more! We believe that animals are part of the family and should be treated that way. That is why when your fur baby stays with us you won’t see them in a kennel or locked in a dog run. He/she is part of our family while you’re away. They are allowed anywhere people are allowed, pampered and will enjoy land to run and play! We provide homemade all organic treats and encourage parents to bring a couple items such as toys, special blankets, or pet beds to remind your pet of home. We go for walks, play fetch, feed according to their diet, send lots of pictures and even an occasional play in the sprinkler if your pup is up for it! Naps and bedtime are comfortable and they will always have something soft to sleep on! Our home is nestled on a small acreage in Raymond, NE giving us lots of room to play and exercise with your pups! Let our home be your pups home away from home and have the peace of mind that they are loved, cherished and spoiled! I’m a stay at home mom and my husband is also currently working from home so we are able to dedicate our time to care for your fur baby while you have to be away. We also have a daughter in high school who is an aspiring veterinarian and loves to help care for all animals big and small. Our property is not fenced but we do have a wrap around tree line. There is plenty of room for your pups to run and play and they will always be supervised. We have plenty of toys to keep your puppy big or small busy and entertained and offer homemade organic treats daily. Your pup is welcome wherever people are! We are able to crate if that is your desire as well. We have two very friendly and social dogs of our own and they love to have friends to play and nap with. We recently installed a catio for our indoor kitties to get some fresh air and to experience the outside in a safe way. This experience is open to any kitties that come to visit as well. COVID-19 Precautions: In order to keep your family and ours safe during this pandemic we have implemented a few precautions. We ask that if you or a member of your family has COVID-19 symptoms or have had contact with an individual who has tested positive or is currently awaiting test results, that you cancel your stay. You will not be held liable for a last minute cancellation in this event and will receive a full refund. Though we typically love to invite people into our home, at this time we have decided it’s best to meet outside and only have our furry friends inside. We will sanitize all leashes, toys and personal items at drop off and pickup. During stays we also try our hardest to avoid other people that are not members of our family from coming over.

100% WOULD RECOMMEND AGAIN! Dom takes such good care of our boys! Our babies are very needy & have abandonment issues. They are only comfortable in their own home with their routines. We have very specific care instructions & one of ours needs medication and he fights it. Dom is consistent and he truly care about our boys’ health and wellbeing while we’re gone. We repeatedly choose Dom time after time because of his great communication, consistency, & level of quality care! Thank you again Dom, you’re the best!

About: I’ve dog sat for about 8ish years for family and friends. I also have two dogs of my own, a Mini Golden doodle and a Westie. My family also fosters dogs occasionally so I have lots of experience with different dogs and personalities. I work full time from 8:00am-4:30pm but I’m always open to provide care early anytime between 6:00am and before 7:30am. And can provide care anytime after 4:30pm. And am free anytime on the weekends. At home we have a fenced in backyard for our fur babies and let them outside to potty and play multiple times a day. When I dog sit I usually just provide services at the clients home and don’t bring the pets to my own house. But will of course provide the same care and let the pets out multiple times a day to play and potty, and will provide walks for the pets for any client that requests.

About: By day I’m a pediatric dental assistant, by night a dog mom! I have a dachshund/lab mix who is a 10 years old, an Anatolian shepherd who is 1 year old and a Bernese mountain dog who is 4 months old. I enjoy taking my dogs on walk, my 10yr old loves to swim, so in the summer we take him to lakes and a friends pool in the summer time. The younger two love to play fetch and wrestle in the back yard. They all love playing with other furry friends! I’d love to hear from you and see if I’m a good fit for your family! I currently work full time in Omaha, Monday-Thursday with the occasional Friday surgery. I’m most excited for the weekends to spend time with my furry babies. I have a fenced yard at my house, my dogs are all leash trained and closely supervised while playing with others. Willing to follow all rules and schedules as dictated by the owner. Schedules make life easier for everyone! 😁

About: I've lived with pets my entire life (except for currently) and have cared for them as long as I can remember. I've also worked at boarding centers, caring for cats and dogs and taking them for walks multiple times a day. I'm happy to follow whatever routine your dog/cat is used to! I also have experience house sitting for 5+ animals at once, so I can take on many different challenges when it come to pet care. Tasks include feeding, walking, administering medications, and cleaning litter boxes and crates. I will make sure your pet receives the attention and love it deserves! I'm available all day on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I am only available on weekends for dog sitting. Your pet would never be left for more than 2 hours at a time! I can adapt to any situation for your pet if needed. From getting up at 5am for breakfast and a morning walk in your neighborhood to going to their favorite dog park on the weekends. I live in an apartment, but live near parks and trails that I can easily take your dog for walks on. I also have lots of windows for cats to look out of in my apartment. Animals are welcome and encouraged to sit with my on my couch and bed! I also have lots of blankets to lie down if they choose the floor.

About: I love all animals, especially dogs. I previously lived in Colorado where I fostered dogs through a local program until they got adopted. The most special dog I fostered had been shot and needed round the clock care and multiple surgeries. She is is now happy and healthy in a new home in Colorado. I work from home so am able to give your pets round the clock attention and love. I can take my computer and work from anywhere and be flexible for schedules. Caring for animals is my passion, I was just never able to make a career out of it. I have my own chocolate lab named Timber. I took her in from a friend that could no longer keep her. I believe in rescuing animals in need.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 242 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Valparaiso. 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 with handling special pet needs in Valparaiso. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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.
