About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a kid. Dogs, cats, lizards, hamsters, chickens— you name it! I love animals and would love to meet yours. I am happy to help out whenever I can— I do seasonal work so I am in between jobs right now and my schedule is flexible. Just like with humans, I believe in the importance of animals getting enough mental stimulation and physical exercise to create happiness, healthiness, and reduce anxiety!

About: I've had pets since I was a kid, from Rottweilers to Pekingese. I have experience with young pups, caring for seniors, and higher energy breeds. I've adopted all my dogs and have experience with crate training, leash training, and potty training. My home is very quiet and equip with a Big Barker, toys, a big back yard, and a quiet 5-mile road for walks. I'm home most of the time, outside of occasional weekend markets for my business. On those days, I would be available after 3 PM. I am a master student with flexible time to fit your pets needs. My house is very quiet with a big back yard and a quiet 5-mile gravel trail right out our front door. I'm able to feed, brush, walk, snuggle, and play to meet a pups needs.

“Margaret did amazing with our semi-feral cat we’ve recently rescued! I was a little worried that he’d regress in some of the confidence he’s gained recently while we were gone, but he improved significantly! He was happy and healthy and thriving when we got home, we couldn’t be more pleased with how well Yukon did under Margaret’s care, we will definitely use her again! Thank you Margaret!!”

“Abigail took care of my 2 aging fur babies for several days. I couldn't be happier when I saw the daily photos of my female cat being social with Abigail!!! My female cat is normally very standoffish with strangers, but not with Abigail. Animals know when a person is good, and they loved her! My fur babies give Abigail 5+ Stars. I will definitely schedule with Abigail again. :)”

About: I grew up on a small farm and currently live with one cat and two dogs! I’ve house sat and worked with a wide range of animals- from dogs and cats to fish and farm animals- often caring for multiple pets at once. I’m flexible, dependable, and willing to adapt to each pet’s routine and personality. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I’m available most days and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine! For longer rover sits, I ask that I can have access to wifi in order to work remotely from your home while still spending time with your pets. I care for pets in their own home to keep them comfortable. I take great responsibility in respecting your home and space, follow routines closely, and provide dependable care with regular updates.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I have cared for large dogs, such as Labs and Pit Bulls, as well as smaller breeds like Pomeranians, Pugs, and mixed breeds. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and pets with special dietary needs or medications. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog's individual needs, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and am currently studying online, which allows me to work from almost anywhere. I love going on walks, especially after a meal, and having a furry companion makes them even better! My flexible lifestyle allows me to make time for your pet’s needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I love being able to incorporate pet care into my day while making sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for. I provide pet care in the comfort of your own home, whether through drop-in visits, dog walking, or other care your pet may need. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My family has always taught me to leave a place better than I found it, and I carry that value with me in everything I do. I will treat your home and belongings with the same care and respect I would want someone to show my own. I also understand that I’m not just caring for a pet; I’m caring for a beloved member of your family. I want you to feel confident knowing your pet is in caring, attentive hands and is being looked after in the familiar environment you’ve trusted me with. My goal is to maintain your pet’s routine, respect your home, and make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away.

About: As a child, my household had many pets through the years, which led me to volunteer at an animal shelter while in college. Around that time I also worked with animals, at a pet shop and later with a conservation group. I adore pets and always insure they feel safe and comfortable with me. I am able to read a their body language and communicate well both verbally and nonverbally. I have attended dog training classes, read multiple books about caring for pets, and watched videos for further education. At the same time, every animal is different and has their own unique personality, and it’s a joy and reward to get to know each one. I have had pets in the past, but because I travel often and enjoy pet sitting so much I find just as much joy in taking care of my clients' animals! Currently I am converting a van into a camper to continue traveling the country and meeting as many cool cats (and dogs!) as I can :) While I may not be able to provide sitting services in every location long term, I believe I bring a love of animals and joy to each sit that makes sure every pet I care for is happy and each client feels peace of mind while they are away! I am self-employed, so my schedule is quite flexible to accommodate your pets' usual routines! I may be in and out throughout the day, but I always discuss first what is normal for your pet and how I can best replicate their home life. I care for pets in my clients' homes, and I follow all written/verbal instructions given to me on pet & home care. I treat the animals and home as if they were my own, and if I have any questions I never hesitate to reach out. I am a tidy person, often a homebody in the evenings, and maintain a high level of respect for both my clients and their lovely pets.

About: many neighbors and friends have relied on me to help walk or watch their dogs or cats while they were gone throughout my whole life. I have a furry friend of my own and have worked at 2 different dog kennels, one being a veterinary hospital, the other one also had training services so I have some experience in those fields. At the veterinary hospital I cared for cats, as well as some "exotic" animals, blind and deaf dogs, dogs with behavioral problems ex. Aggressiveness, and older dogs who required special care. I've also worked at a Kennel where we trained dogs on basic heel, sit, stay, etc. I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pets. I do have reliable transportation and am dedicated to giving the best care while you're away. I have a dog of my own I got when I was 17, I grew up with friends and family who had dogs nearby and would love to go over to play with them and help my friend with any chores she had to do for him. I can give your pet(s) the exercise they need, and am very keen on keeping their usual routine if they have one. Such as feeding at the same time, with any special instructions you may have that will guarantee they eat (my dog is a "picky eater" so I'm very used to having to convince a stubborn dog to eat if needed), walking at the same time, for the same length. I will care for them as if my own pet.

About: My mom has owned a local pet sitting business for 27 years so I have lived and breathed pet sitting for my entire life. I am extremely passionate about animals and the care they receive. I have done over 800 pet sitting visits for my mom’s business and each one is done with the same love and care I give to my own pets. I am pet CPR and first aid certified. I work from home so I will have all the time in the world to give your pets all the love, care, and attention they deserve! I appreciate lots of details about your pets schedule, what they do and don’t like, how you like to spend time with them in order to make sure they are as happy and comfortable as possible while they are away from you!

About: Hi! I'm a Sterling-based dog lover offering dependable, attentive walks for your pup. Whether it's a quick midday potty break or a longer energy-burning walk, I treat every dog like my own — with plenty of patience, positive reinforcement, and photo updates so you know your dog is happy and safe. I'm reliable, punctual, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am currently engaged in full-time employment; therefore, I am available on weekends. Additionally, I am able to accommodate drop-in visits during weeknights as required. I have a German Shepherd, and he needs a lot of exercise, so I take him on three walks a day and throw the ball for a quick run.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Waterford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Waterford is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $17 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 October 2026, there are 2,794 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Waterford. 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 .

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waterford. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , 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.
