“Erin is an amazing sitter who went above & beyond to care for Zoey. She did a great job administering medication & giving me updates. I have peace of mind knowing that Zoey is being loved & well cared for when I’m away from home.”
“Erin is a wonderful caretaker! Have been extremely impressed with her timeliness and communication skills. I can count on numerous pictures being taken each visit and sent to me. Most of my saved pics of Bash are hers! Also assembled my cat fountain for me! Can’t recommend enough.”
“Alivia has come over twice now for drop in visits and the boys are loving her! She has been timely and very responsive which is greatly appreciated. From the time she gets here she is very engaged with both dogs, playing fetch with our hyper Boston and giving lots of pets to our more chill puggle. She also takes the best pictures of them while she’s here which has been adorable to receive after the visits. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Lindsay was fantastic. She took great care of our dog while we were out of town. Very reliable - great communication with us and love all the picture updates. It made been away so much easier knowing he was been taken care of so well. Highly recommend her.”
About: I have had many different dogs since I was young, mostly larger dogs but a fair share of smaller dogs as well! I have a 15 yer old chihuahua, an 18 year old cat, and we rescued an 8 month old mixed breed dog! I can work with larger stronger dogs and smaller feisty dogs, I can work with high energy, low energy and senior as well! I work full time but would love to for a walk or a visit to your fur babies after my shift or later in the evening and on the weekends! I have a fenced in yard with two dogs and an indoor cat, both dogs are kennel trained and w have an extra kennel for a visitor, if in your home I will follow whatever instructions you leave.
“After she took such good care of my cats the last time I went out of town, I was very happy and relieved to be able to hire Alexandra again. She takes such good care of my kitties and is very sweet with them, and I feel totally comfortable knowing I don't have to worry about them when she's there. Highly, highly recommend. ❤️”
“Megan provided exceptional care for my two cats. She was prompt and consistent with her twice-daily visits. She was patient with my grumpy cat and successfully coaxed my extremely shy cat out to eat. Her daily photo updates gave me great peace of mind. I returned home to clean litter boxes and a tidy house. Highly recommended!”
About: I have always loved all animals! I am definitely a nurturer at heart. I have loads of experience watching pets for friends and family. I have worked with a rescue the past few years and have helped nurse back to health and find homes for multiple cats and dogs of all ages. I’d love to help take care of your pet! I am flexible because I work from home so I am able to navigate around schedules easily. I take care of my own animals daily and have my husband as back up. I give all animals proper care and attention from feeding to cuddles. I provide a safe and trusting environment within and outside my own home.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have been caring for them my whole life. I regularly pet sit for my brother’s three dogs regularly, giving me hands on experience with different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also walked and cared for friends and neighbors dogs, and my experience with shy or anxious animals means I know how to help every dog feel safe and comfortable. On top of that, I have animal nutrition education and pet care first aid & CPR training, so you can trust your dog is in knowledgeable, loving hands. I run my own cat food business and go to the gym daily, which gives me a consistent routine while still allowing me to provide dedicated care for pets. I schedule walks, playtime, and visits around my day so your pets always get reliable attention, exercise, and love. Whether it’s a mid day walk, a drop in, or an overnight stay, I make sure every animal in my care feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I do not host pets at my home, but I am happy to provide overnight stays at your home, where your pet can stay in a familiar, stress free environment.
“Arden was wonderful, followed all our directions, gave love and excellent care to our friendly fur baby and considerate and respectful of our very shy guy. 10/10 would recommend her services to anyone, you won't regret it!”
About: I enjoy spending time getting to know each dogs personality as they are all different. I feel it is very important to get dogs out into the fresh air for some play time. I walked 3 dogs for my neighbors for 5 years, and watched their dogs at their homes while they were away on vacation. I work part with flexible hours. I can also work from home. We have a rescue dog that comes to our office that I enjoy. I like learning as much as I can about a pets personality and temperament prior to walking and watching them. Each dog is unique and requires my understanding of them.
About: Hi! I’m Kel, and I’m an experienced, dependable pet sitter who genuinely loves getting to know every animal’s unique personality. I’ve been caring for pets for family, friends, and clients since I was a teenager, and pet sitting has always been something I’ve found incredibly rewarding. I know that leaving your pets in someone else’s care can be stressful, so my goal is to make the experience as comfortable and worry free as possible—for both you and your pets. I’m attentive to routines, personalities, and individual needs, whether that means an energetic dog who needs plenty of playtime, a senior pet who prefers a slower pace, or a shy cat who needs a little extra patience to feel comfortable. I currently share my home with my cats, Rosemary, Cheezel, Wasabi, and my Great Pyrenees, Marsha.. They’ve taught me plenty about the joys, quirks, and occasional chaos that come with having pets! I’m responsible, patient, communicative, and attentive to detail. I’ll treat your pets, your home, and your instructions with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are safe, happy, and well cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! 🐾 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to build pet care into my daily routine and give each visit the time and attention it deserves. I’m able to plan my day around scheduled drop-ins, walks, and house visits rather than rushing from one appointment to the next. I’m comfortable working with different routines and can follow your pet’s normal feeding, medication, play, and bathroom schedules as closely as possible. I understand that consistency is especially important , so I make an effort to keep their routine familiar while you’re away. I also make communication a priority and will keep you updated with messages and photos throughout my visits. My goal is to make caring for your pets a reliable part of my routine while giving you peace of mind that they’re getting the attention and care they need. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where I can keep pets in the environment they know and feel comfortable in. I believe staying in their own space helps reduce stress, especially for cats who can be sensitive to changes in their surroundings. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and care instructions as closely as possible. This can include feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, walks, and medication or other special needs as discussed. I’ll take the time to interact with your pet based on their personality—whether they want lots of attention and playtime or prefer a quieter visit with some gentle companionship. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, or anything else that seems unusual. If I notice something concerning, I’ll contact you promptly rather than assuming it’s normal. I’ll treat your home with care and respect, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life and I have recently found a deep love for cats. I have 2 large English mastiffs and have taken care of dogs of all sizes! I work full time as a group home manager so I have so many years of caring for humans. I have plenty of free time to stop in and take care of your babies! I will care for your pets as if they were my own. On your routine and follow directions step by step for what your fur baby needs!
About: I've been raised around animals my entire life from cats, dogs, and birds. My family has always had pets since I can remember, so I've become very comfortable in caring for them and have plenty of knowledge in animal care. Additionally, I would look after my neighbors dogs and cats when they were out of town or unavailable. I am familiar with routine potty breaks, feeding, play time, and practicing commands. I am a full-time employee at Emory Winship Cancer Institute so I will be in-person during the day Monday-Friday. However, I could manage mid-day walks for pets nearby as well as early morning walks. I’m available in the evenings and on weekends! I live in an apartment with a roommate, so I would prefer to do stays longer than one day at the owner’s home. I’m next to a park, however, so short-term stays are welcomed and pet friendly!
“We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter! She was always punctual, communicated consistently, and took excellent care of Finny. She kept his litter box and feeding area clean, and it was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have 1 cat at home and my partner has 1 dog who basically acts like a cat, so I am looking for an excuse to be around dogs (preferably <25 lbs) who may need some company. Friends and family have entrusted me with their pets for years (both for walks and overnight stays) and I take that responsibility incredibly seriously. I have a full-time hybrid position that has me at home on Mondays and Fridays with some flexibility from Tuesday - Thursday. On days when I am in the office, I will be home before 4:30pm for any afternoon feeding times. I am also available on weekends with advanced notice. I have a large unfenced yard and live less than a block away from a dedicated dog park. I have one small dog (15 lbs) and one cat who are happy to keep your pet company or can be kept in a different part of the house depending on your needs.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Waterford is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Waterford
My husband and I have had several cat sitters for our very loved cat. Kristy is by FAR the best we have ever had. She is warm and caring, reporting any differences she sees in Tully’s behavior and eating habits—and gives him the best ear rubs and cuddles. Our sweet boy loves her. We leave him in Kristy’s care with peace in our hearts. Kristy is exceptional.
Our experience with having Ashley watch our cats while we were on our honeymoon, was nothing short of perfect. She made sure to ask questions about our little guys, including their preferences, their favorite toys and ways to best interact with them, and what really made us feel like she was the right choice, was she made it a priority to do whatever she could to ensure we felt comfortable. She knew our little guy Ralphie, (a very sensitive and socially needy pandemic kitten) was a concern for us when we were gone, because he really needs lots of love and attention, and she sent daily updates along with photos of both boys, and videos of playtime. We felt so at ease knowing she was there with them, and focusing on doing whatever they needed, and it really gave us the opportunity to relax, knowing our little guys were happy at home. We cannot recommend her enough and we will 100% reach out to Ashley the next time we need to go out of town. She was an absolute delight and we are so grateful to have found her!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Waterford is $30 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $48 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.

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.

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.
