About: Hi! I’m Caroline, a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all personalities. I understand that every pet has their own unique quirks, routines, and needs, and I pride myself on providing loving, reliable, and attentive care that keeps them comfortable while you're away. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, medication, or just quiet companionship, I tailor each visit to suit your pet’s preferences. I also offer regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe and happy. I treat every pet like my own with patience, respect, and lots of affection. Let me know how I can help! I currently work in biotech at an office job during the day Monday - Friday with some flexibility to be remote a day here and there, so I am available to stop by early mornings (5-7am) or after work (3-10pm) on days I’m at the office. I am available any time on weekends! At your home, I will be respectful of your space and the way you cater to your pet and their needs. I want to build a relationship to get to know you and your pet and will treat them as if they were my own!

Great cat sitter. Nadine was highly reliable and was able to care for our elderly cat. She made it a breeze to train her on the cat's med schedule and quirky nature. Highly recommend.

Took really good care of my fur babies and was conscientious and tidy in my apartment. Loved the updates and photos! I will definitely re-book and it made me very comfortable in a stressful work event that I knew my cats were taken care of, especially my newly diabetic cat!

Lauren is the best. My cat Luna hates being alone but Lauren was there for her on-time every day while I was in Italy. She kept in close contact with photos and chats and I never once worried about Luna. Will hire her again next time I'm away. Thanks Lauren!

After having a ton of sitters, Olivia is by far the best! She gives such minute detail in her report, and not only fulfillls duties of feline daily living like giving food, water, and cleaning his litter, to the full extent that is requested, she also notices behavioral changes in our pets. I cant reccomend her any more than I do now! She is awesome. I had quite a complex situation to get into my building, and I had the further pressure of having to leave almost immediately, but Olivia was able to help through all that.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and quick to learn each pet’s routine, and I always treat every pet like my own. I currently work web/graphic design freelance part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for drop-ins, walks, and playtime throughout the week. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I love staying active and spending time with animals. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I pay attention to details like locked gates, proper leash handling, and monitoring behavior to ensure pets feel safe. I always follow owners’ instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, training rules, and health needs.

About: Plenty of experience with all types of pets! I have been around dogs and cats all of my life and I currently own an AMAZING corgi named Macy. I am very comfortable around all dogs whether they are small or large. I love dogs and will definitely take wayyyy too many pictures of your fur babies. Your pets are your children and I am more than equipped to meet their needs. I lived with 4 dogs before so I’m very used to watching more than 1. Keeping your pets happy is my priority!!! I typically work 8-5pm at Texas a&m and I’m free outside of that! Depending on how close you were I could potentially let the dogs out at lunch. Your pets typically feel most comfortable in their own environment so while I can’t keep them at my house with my current housing restrictions I am more than willing to house sit so that they can feel at ease while you are away.

She brushed and played with them, and gave their oral medications every morning. She always sent a detailed description of each visit with lots of photos. I will be rebooking Avery in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Waban

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Waban on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,118 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Waban. 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 Waban. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
