“Laurinda was friendly, detailed and professional. She checked in each day and sent multiple photos which I appreciated. She truly loves animals and is great at what she does. Would def use her again and would recommend her. Thanks Again Laurinda!”
“Sara is the best and took such great care of our girl during a long weekend away! She provided so many photos and detailed updates, which made us feel that Abby was in the best hands all weekend long. Would recommend her to anyone else looking for excellent care of their fur baby!”
“This is our first experience with Rover, and Adrienne was just exceptional. From the very start of our meet and Greet with her, our fur babies already loved her! We felt very confident leaving them in her hands. Will DEFINITELY be return clients! :)”
“Erica is amazing! She was patient with my dogs, play with them and even sent pictures. Lolo and Luna looked comfortable and I was very happy. She goes the extra mile and has great communication.”

About: I love to not only feed and let out your pets but also just hangout with them and keep a watchful eye just in case ;) I would love to swing by right before or after work on the weekdays! And can really commit on the weekends if you need to go out of town! I love to just come over and sit with your pet for awhile, let them get comfortable approaching me and then play with them or walk them and feed them when they’re comfortable!
“Brittany did a great job taking care of my cat! She was very responsive, communicative, and did great at keeping him entertained! My cat loved her and all the playtime she provided him. We will definitely reach out and use her again, would highly recommend!”
About: I have a year of hands-on experience caring for dogs as a volunteer at the humane society.

As a passionate pet lover, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and attention to your beloved pets. Trust me to treat them as if they were my own, ensuring their happiness, health, and well-being every step of the way.
“Victoria was an absolute amazing sitter with our medium size Catahoula Black Mouth Cur. It didn’t bother her at all dealing with a larger pet. I could really tell she cared for him and wasn’t just doing a pet babysitting job. He usually doesn’t eat much when we are away but Victoria had a couple of clever ideas and he was eating and drinking like a happy fella. He likes people and doesn’t like being alone so Victoria’s hour visit twice a day really helped those lonesome times. She would play with him and his toys, take him outside and cuddle with affection to makeup the fact we left him behind. We received reports and pictures twice a day as well as text messages when she had questions about his lack of appetite and her ideas to help. I am very appreciative and thankful for Victoria’s hard caring work with our dog. We will confidently ask again for her services with our dog.”
“Colleen and her husband did a wonderful job taking care of Lula. They were so patient with her and went above and beyond helping to ease her fears about us being gone. I would highly recommend their loving service and care!”
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs
“Allison did an amazing job! She took great care of our two cats and provided lots of pictures and updates after each visit. Our boys really enjoyed their time with her. This was our first time using Rover and we couldn't be happier with our experience. We would definitely recommend Allison and hope to continue using her in the future!”
About: Hi! Newly reactivated Rover, but not new to pet sitting! Zookeeper and occasional pet sitter, I have watched many different dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and other small pets. I grew up in the pocket of veterinarians, learned to groom dogs, and now work at a zoo! I have great animal skills, not afraid of any messes, and would love to meet your pets. Pets are family, and I will treat your family just as my own. I have a full time job with semi-flexible hours, so mid day walks are difficult but not impossible! We can discuss your pet’s needs with what I am capable of providing. I can make sure to offer as much consistency as possible and clear communication. Meet and greets are a great way to see if we are a good match!
About: Every dog is different, requiring different types of care; lazing about, long play times, or simply just having a stroll through the neighborhood. I ensure all of these needs are met regardless of the type of dog. Open availability Wednesday thru Friday, if you would like to book any other days, I am open for the conversation! Weekdays, weekends or even holidays. If you have specific requirements of me, I will do everything to meet them, from your home to your pets needs. From every mess they make.
“Sarah did a wonderful job of taking care of Kona while we were away. She was very attentive and was great about sending us updates and pictures. I highly recommend Sarah!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Waco
Chase made sure to keep me up-to-date on my pets while I was out of town. I don’t have any family in town and my neighbors are elderly, so it’s very convenient and reassuring to know that Chase will make sure that my cats are OK while I am on vacation. It’s peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Waco on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of June 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 .
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
