“Kylie was hired again to take care of our babies, we are repeat customers of hers and we couldn’t be happier. Great flexibility, communication, and attentiveness. Couldn’t recommend her enough. It’s always great to have peace of mind while away from our fur babies and being able to enjoy a trip knowing they’re in good hands! Thanks so much!”

About: Being and eldest sibling caretaking has always come naturally to me and that extends towards animals of all kinds. My love for animals started at a very young age and I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since the age of 10. Including fish, frogs, turtles, lizards, snakes, hamsters, bunnies, birds, cats and dogs. Even a tarantula! I’m a single parent and bar manager, just looking for something flexible to do to keep busy during the day. I live an active healthy lifestyle. I do not have any pets at the moment nor pet equipment. My apartment complex is a very pet friendly community with a dog park/waste bags & I have an SUV big enough for transportation if needed.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs and puppies, having been exposed to various temperaments and breeds over the years. I frequently provide dog sitting and walking services for my neighbors. I am employed part-time in order to dedicate ample time to the care of your pets. I am capable of flexibly modifying my schedule to accommodate your requirements. All the dogs under my care must be trained to walk on a leash. If necessary, I am capable of crating your dog. I consistently ensure that all doors are securely locked.

“It’s been a crazy summer but Autumn has helped to make sure I don’t have to worry about whose going to take care of my cat, Ana. She’s always ready to help, even though sometimes I give short notice she always comes through. I still have 4 more trips this summer and I wouldn’t even think about booking anyone else. Thanks again Autumn!”

“Natalia was great with our kitties. She may have even spoiled them a little. I was a bit nervous about having a 'stranger' in the house to look after our cats while we were out of town. The experience with Natalia was great. We received updates and photos daily. I was glad the cats didn't give her a hard time. One cat needs meds twice a day and is a little shy of others. Every photo I received was of both kitties looking nice and relaxed. This experience has made it a bit easier to plan ahead for my next trip.”

About: Since I was 10 years old, I’ve cared for all kinds of animal babies: cats, dogs, bunnies, reptiles, even birds. I even have 12+ years of working in the veterinary field, so I have the bonus of that knowledge and experience. Currently, I care for my own fur-family of cats, rabbits, and a ball python. I am very passionate for thorough and appropriate care for animal-babies, so they can have the best possible life. My specific area of passion and focus currently is for the kitties and bunnies, so I will be offering my pet-sitting services primarily for those fur-babies. If other kinds of pet-babies are in the household, I will evaluate that on a case-by-case basis. I am excited and ready to care for your kitty-babies and other kinds of fur-babies 😉 My typical schedule has me doing various things during the day (i.e. another job, personal furbaby care/quality time, other personal ventures). Thus, the best times for me to care for your fur-babies would be morning and night. I am not available for mid-day drop ins at this time. I am available for 2 drop-in visits (morning & night) per day per pet parent, 30 minutes to 1 hour per visit. I will update my availability/schedule if this changes in the future. Upon confirmation of booking, I require a “meet & greet” with NEW pet-babies and owners prior to the care dates. This will allow me to meet everyone, to make sure I’m a good fit for the fur-babies, and to familiarize myself with the family’s care and routine. My goal is for pet-parent(s) and pet-babies to feel as comfortable as possible, so this process will help me do just that. I also require that all cat and other fur-babies (when applicable) to be up to date on core vaccines and parasite control (flea/tick), as this will help keep everyone I care for outside and inside my home safe and healthy.

About: I currently have 3 dogs of my own and would love to have the opportunity to take care of your furbaby during the day. I am a stay at home mom and have time during the day to meet your needs. I am happy to be given the opportunity to entertain your baby at your home while you are at work. I have experience with puppies all the way to senior pets. I also have experience with administering medications if needed since one of my own dogs has daily and monthly medication needs. I currently do not work and have time to visit or walk with your baby to give you a peace of mind while you are away. I will ensure they are walked and or cuddled as needed. Also will take care of them with instructions are given to me to make their visit pleasant.

“Amazing pet sitter! My boyfriend and me had just moved to the area and did not know anyone who could watch out cat. Thankfully, we found Alyssa! She took such great care of our cat while keeping us posted with updates, which eased our worries while away. After her visit, she surprised us with housewarming gifts for us and treats/toys for our cat. We could not be more grateful and will stick with her in the future!! 🐈❣️🩷”

About: I have spent nearly my entire life surrounded by and caring for animals. My hands-on pet care journey started when I was just 8 years old when I got my first dog, and I welcomed my very first cat a year later at age 9. Over the last several years, I have successfully managed feeding schedules, playtime, and daily exercises for a wide variety of dog breeds and feline personalities.Currently, I am the proud pet parent of a beautiful chocolate British Shorthair, so I completely understand how important specific grooming, dietary routines, and environmental comforts are to keeping a pet happy. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk around the neighborhood or your cat requires a gentle, patient companion to check in on them, I provide trustworthy, dedicated care tailored entirely to your pet's unique personality and needs. - Full-Week Availability: I am available Monday through Sunday to care for your beloved cats. - Early Birds Welcome: Monday through Friday, my best times are early mornings before 7:00 AM. This is perfect for kitties who love an early breakfast or morning playtime! -Open Weekends: On Saturdays and Sundays, my schedule is completely open, and I am available at any time of day. - Dedicated Routines: Because my own daily routine already revolves around feeding, playing with, and caring for my kitten from the moment I wake up, I am always reliable and on time. - Earning Their Trust: I know that cats can be shy, but I have a gentle touch. My own 9-month-old kitten trusts me completely to brush her and clip her nails. - Experienced Family: My entire family owns both dogs and cats. I have spent years learning how to keep home environments completely safe, hazard-free, and secure for animals. - Home Security: When doing drop-in visits or house sitting, I double-check that all doors and windows are securely closed so your cat stays safely inside. - Peace of Mind: I follow your exact instructions for feeding, treats, and litter box cleaning. I will send you regular updates and photos so you know your cat is happy.

About: Most recently I trained k9s in the airforce for police work but I also grew up in a home that bred beautiful German Shepards and kept a myriad of different animals, from chickens to squirrels. I currently have 2 cats that I adore. I’m really great with working on animals with any temperament. I’m currently in school full time online, so that leaves me with plenty of time to do odd jobs to look after pets. I also work part time as a dispatcher from 1-6 M-F I have well spaced ground floor apartment with plenty of outside space to run around in. Easily accommodates my two cats with plenty of room for more dogs or cats

About: From playful pups to curious kitties, I offer reliable and loving care to ensure your furry friends stay happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Whether it’s daily dog walks, playtime, or cuddles for your cat, I provide personalized attention and a safe environment so you can rest easy knowing they’re in great hands. I’ll be available almost all the time! I have no other obligations until I start school again :) any time or day and I’ll be there! When I had a dog, I would routinely take him to the dog park, or for walks or to play fetch, cuddles on the couch, bathes and just good quality time with them!!

Second time I have had Megan take care of of my cat. She is excellent, a genuine animal lover of the highest degree. She took care of any specific things that were worrying me and communicated everyday. This gave me much peace of mind. I highly recommend her.

Hannah was great with my Sour patch kitty, Colby. Colby is usually pretty selective, and takes time to warm up to people. She seemed to enjoy Hannah’s company more than most. Hannah provided great pics of my girl while I was on vacation. I was able to enjoy my time away without worrying too much about my Colby. Thanks Hannah!!!!

Lena was a great sitter for Z! She gave him regular drop ins and communicated directly through the app so I knew when she arrived and when she left. She included a bunch of photos and ended each message confirming that she locked the door and handed off my keys. Will definitely look for her again in the future!

Laura is the best! She took great care of my cats while I was on a weekend getaway. Laura is the ultimate cat whisperer — if you would like someone who not only makes sure the cats are fed and kitty litter cleaned, but goes above and beyond to spend quality time with your kitties while you’re away, I 100% recommend Laura to take care of your fur babies.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Virginia Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Virginia Beach is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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.

As of November 2026, there are 288 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Virginia Beach. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Virginia Beach. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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 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.
