“Camille was very sweet and caring to my cat! She really cared about the specific routine we have and sticking to the instructions and tips I left. She left detailed notes through the app and lots of adorable pictures. It was good to know my cat was comfortable with her and enjoyed having someone there to care for her while I was gone.”
“She was absolutely wonderful! Attentive, communicative, and so thoughtful about sending pictures of my kitties, just as I’d asked. One of my cats decided to take it upon himself to demolish a potted plant while I was away, and Willow cleaned up the whole mess without hesitation—and rescued my plant. When I got home, both of my kitties were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Lizz is amazing; she took this booking last minute and had plenty of time to meet Kade twice before the booking to make sure he warmed up to her. She was so nice and patient with Kade and it looks like they had a great time! Thank you!!”
“Our small dog can be skittish around strangers, but Emily made her feel comfortable while we were away. We will definitely reach out to Emily again in the future!”
“I’ve hired Meredith several times now to take care of my two cats, and she’s been wonderful every time. She’s reliable, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. I always feel at ease knowing she’s looking after my cats and my home while I’m away. She gives them plenty of pets and treats, keeps me updated, and I can tell they’re happy and well cared for when I return. I’ll definitely keep booking her for future trips—highly recommend!”
“Azure was wonderful with our three cats! She was timely and excellent with communication. It was obvious that she was passionate about taking care of them. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
“Sophia watched our dog porter while we were gone over the holidays. She checked in on him multiple times a day and left us feedback each time on how he was doing. We love hiring Sophia when we go out of town because we know he’ll be well taken care of.”
About: I have over 5 years of experience with both pet care and child care. I have a Bachelors degree from Western Washington University, and I have worked at a local elementary school for the past 3 years. I’ve taken care of animals almost my entire life, I've even assisted in rescuing an owl! I’ve been trusted by several family members, friends, and other Rover families to watch over their babies, whether it’s staying with them overnight, taking them out and getting active, or just being there to have someone to cuddle with for an hour or two. I grew up living on a farm surrounded by cats and dogs and taking care of them was my favorite part of the day. You can trust that I will care for your pet as if they are my own. Pet care is my sole focus currently- so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am available both weekends and weekdays, I'm a morning person as well, so I don't mind an early morning with a pet. It is imperative that your animals feel safe and comfortable around me, so I will meet them where they're at. I don't force connections, and I will always make sure that they know I am a safe human to be around. Routines and schedules are important, as well as being able to read an animals cues and understand what they need in that moment. I can provide that for your pet.
“Arianna was awesome, able to come meet our cats and start drop-in visits on short notice while we were away for vacation. She was proactive, responsive, genuinely sweet with the cats, great about sending pics, and took care of everything we needed. Thank you so much Ari! Will definitely book again next time.”
About: I really enjoy meeting all kinds of cats and dog and appreciate their quirky personalities. It's especially great when I get the change to develop relationships with them from repeat connections. I'm current unemployed and will likely be working online part-time, seeking work, or doing online research projects. So, my time and place are very flexible. One of my dogs is difficult/unpredictable with other dogs, so I'm likely to do care away. (My dogs are probably a little TOO interested in cats.)
“Skylar was great with our elderly cat Lucky! Lucky usually hides from anyone who isn’t family, but she let Skylar take her picture and even accepted Nulo Treat from her. Skylar was flexible as our schedule changed a little and even helped us navigate the Rover app. I highly recommend her.”
“Sophia was fantastic! One of my cats got so stressed missing us that he ended up having blood in his urine - she spotted it and communicated to me right away so we could get him to a vet and get meds. She was a great communicator and clearly very sweet and caring with my boys. I will definitely book her again! Thank you!”
“Menisha did a great job looking after my 2 cats while I was away for the holidays! She sent picture every visit and spent extra time playing with them. I came home to happy cats and a clean house, thanks Menisha!”
“Taylor is the best! She is trustworthy, a good communicator and sent me great photos. She gave me peace of mind when I was out of town that my cat was being well taken care of. My cat loved her from the beginning when she can be hesitant to new people.”
About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me over the years to help care for their fur babies, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or simply helping pets feel safe and comfortable while their humans are away. I’m calm, dependable, highly detail-oriented, and understand how important routines and communication are when it comes to pet care. I’m especially comfortable with cats and small to medium-sized dogs, and I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, or just so you can see their sweet little face. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone truly trustworthy, attentive, and kind to care for your furry family members. As a high school teacher, my schedule is very routine-oriented, which makes me dependable and organized when caring for pets. During the school year, I’m generally available evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks, with more flexible availability during the summer months. I do my best to work with each pet’s established routine so they can feel comfortable, safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, attentive, and respectful to care for your fur babies and your home. I approach each pet based on their individual personality, comfort level, and routine, whether they’re highly social and energetic or more shy and independent. I’m highly detail-oriented, dependable, and always respectful of feeding schedules, medication instructions, boundaries, and household expectations. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, while still getting a glimpse of their sweet little face.
“Leslie was amazing with my two pups and such a great find for a last minute booking! She was accommodating and great with communication. This was my first time using Rover and I was not sure how my pups would be with a new person as one of them can be anxious. They warmed up to Leslie right away and there were no issues. I appreciated the detailed check ins and pictures at every visit and felt very reassured my dogs were being well taken care of. I will definitely be using Leslie again! Highly recommend!”
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life! I have a big heart for dogs, especially. I have two dogs, Scooter & Rocco, & have very little time in my life without one. I am more than happy to bring your dog to my place to hang out with my boys. I can do walks & doggy play dates! I'd also be willing to stay at your place for longer periods & during the week if I could bring my two boys with me! I have trained Scooter to be an ESA with additional tasks & a therapy dog. I work full time & have a very flexible schedule. I can pop in during the work day & work from home when needed! I have free time on weekends & some evenings, so if you work odd hours, I'm more than happy to stop by & feed, get out for a walk, & such! I always follow house rules. I generally ensure that gates are shut, collars are on, leashes are secure. I will treat your babies like my own & I do not play about my boys.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Van Wyck
Our cats are always happy and relaxed when we return home and Tricia has cared for them. We don’t have to worry at all knowing they are in excellent hands while we’re away. Tricia spends time cuddling and playing with them, giving them catnip and treats in addition to their routine medications. She is fantastic at communicating.
Myla did a good job checking in on our cat during our vacation, making sure there was enough food, and keeping feeding area & litter box area clean. She communicated well and handled a few things that came up with aplomb. Would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who uses Rover.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 438 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Van Wyck. 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 Van Wyck. On Rover:
- 99% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
