Savana is kind, professional, and brave. We had an emergency and had 6 dogs at my parents house. She never met our pups but with instructions she went in and took care of all 6! While the pup played a little to hard and hurt his sister, Savana cleaned her up well, lat us know about what was happening. So professional and kind about the situation. I would recommend her services to my family and friends!

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)

Brenda and Francis went above and beyond! They understood my needs and those of my fur babies and soon became friends with two of them. I had warned Brenda the other cat had been feral and does not do well under stress and would most likely hide under the bed and not make an appearance. She made sure she left her cat food every day where she would find it and the boys would not eat it. She left her kitty treats every day for her to find. Of course, the boys needed no coaxing! She sent me pictures every day. I would book her again in an instant!

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10! I have experience with all different breeds, I even have 5 dogs of my own! All breeds are welcome 🤗 I am currently a fully online student and I control my own schedule. My calender is open for whatever days you need! Please feel free to reach out with any questions! 😊 I will not be able to pet sit in my own home, since I have so many animals. However, I am more than happy to care for your pet in your own home, going on walks, bathing, etc.

I was very pleased with Kimberly and if you are considering hiring someone to drop in on your kitty, Kimberly should be your caretaker. Kimberly followed every instruction and made sure I was updated every day. She was always on time and I did not have to worry about my little baby while I was away for the holiday. Her reports are thorough and she called to confirm any questions. She takes her responsibility seriously and as a pet owner herself, she knows how much we love our fur family and why us daddies and mommies don't like to leave them with anyone. In all HIGHLY recommended.

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was three years old. I've always loved them! I've worked at a dog boarding kennel for over a year now and I love it! Before that, I worked at a farm with lots of different animals and I've watched/walked dogs on the side for a long time now. I also have experience with cats as well! I'd love to meet your four-legged friends and family! I work part-time at a dog boarding kennel and my hours are different sometimes. I'm either working 7am - 12:30pm OR 3pm - 7pm. I usually work the afternoon shift (3 - 7). Since I have worked with animals a lot, especially dogs, I definitely consider myself pretty educated. Like I said, I do not offer boarding in my own home but I am more than happy to come to yours and offer my services! If you have any questions about anything, always feel free to contact me! :)

About: I've always had pets growing up and cared for strays. I was always trying to bring a new pet home! I'm the one you will see stopped in the middle of the road stopping traffic to help a turtle cross. I will always try to help any animal in need. I currently have a very flexible schedule so I can be available for your pets based on their needs. I'm available most weekends and holidays. I can also help out last minute to feed, walk and play for those times when the unexpected comes up. I'm honest and responsible and will take care and respect your home and privacy at all times. I'm also happy to discuss light housekeeping and chores on a case by case basis.

About: I’ve been certified as a Vet Assistant, I am also currently in school for my license as a Vet Technician. I’m very confident that I will be a safe environment for your furry friends! I’m currently a student so weekends will be more manageable for me, In case of any emergencies of course I can make accommodations during weekdays. I’ve had more than 11 animals my whole life growing up (5 dogs) (4 cats) (2 two fish) I would say I’m extremely experienced in caring for animals. Professionally my experience would be under a year as I am still in school, I live on 67 acres and a large yard which will give your dog enough room to run with the wind and enjoy the fresh air.

About: I am currently in training to become a certified dog trainer. I am able to offer basic and puppy training at this time. I have around 18 years of pet care experience.

Kim was a great sitter for my special needs cat. She gave him the care and attention he needed and made sure I was updated on whether he’d gone to the bathroom. I also appreciate her willingness to care for him over the holidays - it was a huge help since we could not be home with him!

About: Animals are truly my heart. I believe in giving pets one-on-one attention while they’re away from their families because I understand that being in a new environment can sometimes cause stress or anxiety. My goal is to make every boarding experience as calm, loving, and seamless as possible. I have many years of experience caring for and working with dogs. I work from home and create my own schedule, which allows me the flexibility to give your pet the time, attention, and individualized care they deserve. I love taking dogs for walks and getting them outside to enjoy nature whenever permitted. I also have a nice yard where they can relax, sunbathe, and get fresh air. If your pet requires wee-wee pads, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. Your dog is welcome to sleep in the bed with me if that is something you allow at home. I treat every dog in my care like they are my own, with love, patience, and attention because they are family. 💗 Let’s schedule a meet and greet and make your pet’s stay comfortable and stress-free!

About: I have been taking care of all types of animals since I could walk. I grew up near farms and ranches in Colorado, had Guinea pigs, dogs, cats, fish, frogs and many more species. I have taken care of 12 newborn Great Dane pups, large breeds and the smallest breeds. I am experienced with animal care, protocols, health issues, CPR and first aide for animals. In the past I have been challenged with aggressive animals and handled them with the best care, patience and understanding. Under any aggressive dog, is a scared puppy. All animals deserve respect and love. As a busy pet parent myself I understand how important it is to care for our pets, as they are apart of our families. I have a full time job and am off on the weekends. I am always available in the afternoons, over nights until I have to leave for work in the mornings, and can do frequent walks. Here we understand that our pets need attention, socialization, and love in order to thrive. I have two dogs of my own at home, a three y/o Great Dane names Eggo and a 2 year old basset hound named Maple. I care for your dogs like I care for mine. We understand that every dog and pet has a specific schedule and needs. We follow their schedules the best we can, we follow feedings, potty breaks and can administer meds if need be.

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, lizards, and a chinchilla. My friends made a joke that my house was a zoo with all the animals we had. I love animals and I can’t imagine my life without a furry pet. I’m home for the summer before my job starts in September. Free during the weekends or weekdays for boarding, house sitting, or walking. I’m very flexible for hours. My dog is very good off leash in our backyard. We take her on hikes all the time to tire her out. My cats are older and have to take medication but they love snuggling up with my dog.

I wish I could give Alexis more than 5 stars!!! I contacted Alexis last minute about day care for my two German shepherds, plans quickly changed because of my one of dogs health and she didn’t hesitate to offer to come to my house instead. My dog had an accident in my house and she thoroughly cleaned up after him. Alexis goes above and beyond for her clients and their pets from quick response times to genuinely caring for your pet. Keep up the great work and I look forward to booking again with you soon!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Wantage

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 894 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Wantage. 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 Wantage. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
