“Madison did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 cats. She communicated very well, was thorough, and went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of while we were out of town. Highly recommended and will happily book with her again.”
About: I recently went on a trip for my birthday and found this app as a resort for my animals while i was off. i was so happy with this app and i decided to sign myself up for it since i have a strong love for animals and i am a college student, at UAB, so it’s easy to fit my weird schedule. I have always loved animals since i opened my eyes as a baby. I have grown up with many different animals like dogs, cats, birds, lizards, frogs, turtles, and fish. I love each and every animal equally. I am currently working at P.F. Chang’s as a cook, part time, I am available majority during the late afternoon and night. I have 2 days off in the week which are Tuesdays and Thursdays. at the moment i have an orange tabby cat, a pitbull german shepherd mix puppy, and a soft shell turtle. I have trained my dog to do many tricks and be disciplined as well.
“She was so sweet and great at communicating! Sent soo many pictures of my fur babies and helped ease my mind that they were doing good. Followed all directions and took excellent care of my babies.”
About: I have cared for a variety of animals and am comfortable caring for any pet (including exotic or uncommon), any age, any size, any level of care, and any personality! I have past experience caring for senior animals (including dogs, cats, and horses) as well as animals under age 1 (including dogs and cats). I often volunteer at the Birmingham Humane Society! Although I am not offering training services, I have experience training and am willing to uphold any training regimen. I have experience shadowing a household pet veterinarian as well as an equine veterinarian. I also have farm animal care experience. I love playtime and am very attentive! I am very excited to care for your pet! I am available to sit weekends and after 7 pm on weekdays. I can do daytime feedings or walks 2 or 3 times a day. I am available for boarding weekends and weekdays after 7 pm. My apartment is the perfect environment for boarding! I am available for boarding some weekdays all day, but I will need notice 5 days and to coordinate in advance for boarding on a weekday before 7 pm due to shifting schedule days. For walks, let me know an estimated average walk time for your pet so that they are comfortable and happy! For sitting, I will clean any pet messes if needed. Require a decently clean home and closer distance if overnight sitting is needed. Please, let me know of any concerns ahead of time. For boarding, I am in a one bedroom apartment with no other pets and decent play space. I have no toys, litter boxes, or cat trees so will need to provide their own. I live next to a large unfenced park. The apartment is clean and tidy and safe for pets. The apartment building also has a pet bathing station available if your pet needs cleaning. If you are concerned with a public bathing station, I am perfectly comfortable bathing your pet in the bath in my apartment. Please, let me know of any health or hygiene issues beforehand. Medications/allergies/health concerns are extremely important to me.
About: I’m an educator, dad, and lifelong pet owner with more than 20 years of experience caring for animals. Pets have always been part of my family, so I understand that trusting someone with yours is a big deal. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable following established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little things that help a pet feel safe and comfortable. As an early childhood professor, caregiving, observation, communication, and responsibility are quite literally part of what I do every day. I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and affection I expect for my own. As a university professor, my schedule offers more flexibility than a traditional 9-to-5, particularly on certain weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m also a dad, so planning, routines, and being dependable are already a big part of my life! I’m happy to coordinate care around your pet’s normal schedule whenever possible and will always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. I know pets are family, and I treat both your pet and your home with that level of care and respect. I follow your instructions closely, maintain established feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines, and pay attention to changes in behavior or appetite. I’m patient about letting pets warm up to me at their own pace and prioritize safety at all times. You can also expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away. I know how reassuring it is to know that someone you love is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Madison’s experience at the vet gives our family such confidence that we can leave our dog in the best of hands. Her knowledge on how to handle “skiddish” dogs was perfect for our animal. She’s always on time and dependable. Boba loves her and that’s the most important thing to us. I would 100% recommend her to watch any type of animal you have.”
About: Animals have been a lifelong passion of mine, and I bring over five years of hands-on veterinary experience to every pet-sitting visit. My background includes emergency and urgent veterinary care, senior and special-needs pets, medication administration, and caring for animals with a wide range of personalities and needs. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I take the time to learn their individual routines, personalities, and preferences so they can enjoy familiar surroundings and personalized attention. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, my goal is to make their time with me as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe great pet care is about more than feeding and walking. It's about patience, attentiveness, trust, and genuinely enjoying the animals in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family members! I work a rotating schedule at a veterinary clinic while pursuing my second master's degree. My workdays and days off vary each week, often giving me several consecutive days off and flexibility for pet care. I keep my Rover calendar updated to reflect my availability and am happy to coordinate visits, walks, and extended care around my schedule. Caring for animals is both my profession and my passion! With nearly five years of hands-on veterinary experience, I'm comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, ages, and medical needs. My experience includes administering medications and injections, recognizing signs of illness, and caring for frightened, anxious, and rescued animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medical attention, playtime, or simply a reassuring presence, my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy. You tell me what works best for your pet, and I'll do my best to maintain that routine while you're away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 411 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Vanns. 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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
