About: Hi! I’m a pet sitter with 3 years of experience as an emergency vet tech and a lifelong animal lover. I’ve worked in fast-paced ER environments, so I’m calm, confident, and trained in handling pets of all personalities and medical needs. Also, I have a cat of my own who inspires me to give every pet the same love and attention I give at home. With 1 year of pet sitting experience, I provide reliable, compassionate, and knowledgeable care you can trust. I currently work part time so I am very flexible. I am driven to keep your pets comfy and happy. I will work with you on your schedule. I have a backyard and a safe friendly neighborhood to take your animals on walks. I do own a cat, but if needed, I will keep her in my bedroom.

“Acadia ... was great! She sent pics and updates regularly. She was always courteous and professional and from the moment that I met her, I knew I could count on her to take care of Buddy in our home. She left everything clean and neat, followed directions, asked questions when she wasn't sure about something and more. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and I'm sure I will.”

About: I’ve loved being around pets for as long as I can remember, and growing up with dogs taught me just how special they are. Caring for animals is my absolute passion! I am dedicated to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pups, and I can't wait to meet your fur babies! Because I maintain a fairly flexible schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I structure my day around your pet's established feeding, walk, and play schedules. Whether your pet needs early morning check-ins, midday play, or evening snuggles, I'm able to prioritize their specific needs so they stay happy, comfortable, and on track while you're away. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and devotion I give my own. Every pup is unique, so I customize my approach to fit their specific needs—whether that means high-energy playdates, quiet 1-on-1 neighborhood walks, or specialized care for timid and senior dogs. I maintain a secure, calm environment and keep you updated every step of the way with photos and notes for complete peace of mind.

About: I managed to survive caring for my Samoyed from birth to full size. He was and still is high maintenance, and I believe he has prepared me well. I am not currently employed and am preparing for law school next year. I am available any day of the week at any time :) I stick to a strict food and walk schedule with my dog so that he does not have to wait any longer than he should. I keep an eye out for hotspots or any irregularities, and address it right away. Most importantly, I treat every animal like my best friend.

About: I've had pets since a young age from lizards, cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, turtles, guinea pigs and birds. I have a small dog of my own so I know I can give your pets lots the love and attention too whether they have fur, scales, or feathers! I work from home so all pets get get a lot of attention during the day. For dogs staying in my home, they get 3 walks a day in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening. I work from home so all pets get a lot of attention during the day. I love to spend my time after work going on walks and would love a buddy(s) to come with me! I am available from dog walking or in home visits after 5:15pm during the week and anytime on weekends. I think the best way to care for a pet is do exactly what they're comfortable with. I intend to have very open communication with pet parents to understand the likes, dislikes and behaviors of their fur-babies to make sure that they feel safe and comfortable. I do have a dog of my own so I also want to make sure all your pets get along with my Jax, who loves other animals.

About: I grew up with a German Shepherd, so I’m familiar with the care, attention, and patience that dogs need. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping dogs on their usual routine. I’m responsible, attentive, and will make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is fairly flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I can work with your pet’s routine for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, and I’m happy to communicate with you throughout the stay so you know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet and home with care, respect, and responsibility. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routines and any specific instructions you provide, while making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I’ll also keep your home clean and secure and communicate with you regularly so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve had cats since I was 13 and have many years of hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs with different personalities and needs. I was able to help an older rescue cat become comfortable and affectionate over time, which taught me patience and how to build trust with shy or nervous cats. I currently have a tortie of my own, so I understand how important routines, playtime, and a calm environment are. I treat every cat and dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time as a paraprofessional from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM on weekdays and am currently earning my master’s degree in elementary education. I’m available for pet care visits in the late afternoons and evenings after 4:30 PM, as well as weekends and school breaks. For cat sitting, I’m happy to stay for extended visits and can sit with your cat while I complete my schoolwork so they have calm companionship and supervision while you’re away. My schedule is consistent and dependable, and I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routines closely so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I provide feeding, litter box care, playtime, and calm companionship during visits. As a paraprofessional and graduate student in elementary education, I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to details and instructions. I also communicate regularly with updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe, cared for, and relaxed.

About: Hello! My name is Shelby and I am a recent grad from Georgetown University! After years of volunteering at LaMancha animal rescue and dog walking / pet sitting on the Wag app, my favorite way to spend my spare time is with furry friends. I would love to meet some new fur babies on Rover!! I work from 8:00-4:30 every weekday, but my weekends are very open. I’m an early bird so I have no problem stopping by before work, and I have access to a car so I don’t mind a long(ish) journey :) I am comfortable crating dogs and attentive to feeding/medication details. As a pet lover, you bet I’m comfortable playing with and giving lots of belly rubs to your furbaby !

“Both my cat and I love JJ! As nervous as I was to leave my beloved kitty behind as I traveled for the holidays, I knew when I met JJ that I would have nothing to worry about. Clearly an animal-lover, JJ made sure my cat was well taken care of physically and emotionally. Each day she sent me photos of him doing a variety of things - eating, drinking, playing, lounging - so I knew he was happy and healthy. Even though my cat is typically shy around strangers, he warmed up to JJ after the first visit. I would absolutely recommend JJ for any of your pet care needs. If I ever have to leave town without my cat again, JJ will be the person I trust to care for him while I'm gone. Thank you, JJ!”

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Wallingford Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Wallingford Center is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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 448 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Wallingford Center. 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 Wallingford Center. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% 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.
