About: Hi! I’m a reliable, attentive animal lover with years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages and personalities. As a detail-oriented professional, I take pride in following routines closely, providing plenty of love and attention, and keeping pet owners updated with photos and messages while they’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or just a consistent routine, I’m committed to providing dependable, personalized care you can trust. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially during the summer while I’m off from my full-time job. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide visits throughout the day, stick to your pet’s normal routine, and give them plenty of attention and care. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each day. I always care for pets as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. In my own home, your pet would be welcomed into a calm, safe environment with my two friendly cats. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while they’re with me.
About: I’ve been around family pets since I got my first cat at 6 months old! 29 years of experience adoring your pets, 20 years of experience with cats, 7 with dogs. I’ve lived with and helped raise a mid-sized terrier mix and a large Rottweiler mix. Im looking forward to meeting your furry family members and hopefully giving you some peace of mind that they well be safe and adored while you’re away. I’m currently in my last semester of undergrad and saving up for grad school. I spend a lot of my time volunteering but have no firm work schedule. I will visit every day or stay overnight with your pets to make sure they are safe, well-fed, exercised, watered, and pottied. I love to read with a cat beside me or go for a nice walk with your dog. Let me know what your pet needs! Everyone is different.
“Angie did an awesome job sitting my dogs when I was out for the evening. She took them outside to relieve themselves and fed them dinner. I really loved the photos and detailed report she sent- it made me feel very good about their safety and comfort while I was out. I will definitely be booking with Angie again in the future. Thanks, Angie!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a young age in my own home and have dog sat for several families as a teenager and adult. I like to play and walk dogs and take care of their needs. I do have experience with puppies. I also have experience with cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils and fish. I work from home, so I have some flexibility/availability during the morning and afternoon and am free in the evenings. I am also available most weekends. I love getting to know dogs and other pets. I will learn from the owners about their pets and observe their behaviors to see works best for them in our interactions.
About: I’ve taken care of my family pets my entire life and have been trusted with feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with dogs and cats for neighbors, family members, and friends while away! I currently am a mama to a pup and a kitty who I love more than anything (don’t tell my fiancé 🤭) I’d love to be able to help in a pinch to take care of your bestie and care for them as if they were part of my own pack. I work from home on Thursdays & Fridays with an extremely flexible schedule! Weekends, I am typically available with enough notice. Visits for me can last any where between 10min check ins to 1hour adventures. At home, we have a lead for our dog to roam the yard. I am comfortable with letting pups out in fenced yards, walking on leashes, and crating if that is something you need. I’m totally willing to assist with meal times and treats with instructions provided. I totally understand that each pet has specific needs and I’ll go the distance to keep them happy.
“Kandice was a great pet sitter for our two cats. Her communication was phenomenal and you can tell she has a real heart for animals. It was our 1st experience with Kandice and we would definitely book her again! Highly recommend !!”
About: I’ve only worked with my own dog who is 13 years old, but I would love to get more experience with other dogs and cats. I am sure I can give the best care possible to all dogs and cats!!! Since the age of 6 I have taken care of my current dog, giving her lots of play time, baths, and cuddles. I’m sure I can give your pet the same great care! My schedule at my other job always depends on the week because I have a as needed type of job and I pick up when I can. So my schedule always varies, but I will set aside days of the week to do dog sitting or walking jobs! I have a big yard for my dog and your fur babies to play in!! My neighborhood is very safe also. I will make sure your dog or cat is always safe and cared for.

“Unbelievable! Jessi took time to get to know our 16 year old cat and went above and beyond with everything. It took away the stress that we had in leaving our cat alone!”
“Aly was able to support last minute and my pup loved her from first meeting! So sweet and clearly has love and care for fur babies. She checked in and sent pictures when popping in to let Jada out, which was so appreciated!”

“Suzanne did a fantastic job caring for our three cats. We have a special-needs cat who needs a pill every visit. Pilling a cat can be challenging, and I fully expected that there would be missed doses, but Suzanne managed to give her all her meds, as well as lots of pets and we received adorable photos. It was wonderful to get updates after every visit, and I never had to worry about how they were doing.”
“April was amazing! She came through for me last minute on New Year’s Day and took wonderful care of both of my dogs. One of them is a difficult Pomeranian and she handled everything calmly and confidently. I feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. I’m grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been living with and caring for animals my entire life. I learned from an early age how to care for and train animals. I can train your puppies on potty training, teaching them new tricks. I taught my dog how to use a doggy doorbell to let me when he needs to go potty. I also grew up around family who were experienced vet techs, who have taught me how to care for common pet injuries, etc. I'm currently beginning training for substitute teaching. But otherwise have a pretty open schedule. So I can be available most times for your pet care needs. I can let your dog outside or take them for walks while you're working so they can get out when you're not home. If you're in Waukesha county I can take them to the dog park and get them some exercise. I can sirens some time teaching them tricks. I'm open to what care you'd like your pup to receive.
“Sandra was great!! Our puppy bonded with her right away. She is very informative for first time rover users, friendly, flexible, and communicates well through the whole process! We were a little nervous about trying this whole online pet setting arrangement out but she made the whole process comfortable and we will not be hesitant about calling on her anytime we need a hand ?”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Waukesha
Kelly is absolutely fantastic. I am a repeat client and I will continue to be. She is very dependable, punctual, and communicates with every visit on how they are doing with lots of pictures. She goes above and beyond creating trust with our kitties. She also does a stellar job making sure our kitties remain stress free with the cleanliness of their litter boxes. She follows instructions to a T and I leave a long list 🙃…. From bowl cleanliness and water fountain levels to youtube for cats so they have live entertainment and interior light levels so they can sleep well at night, but still see well enough in their eating and bathroom areas. I know they are well cared for and our home is secure. 5 stars!
Ashley did a double drop-in for me on a short notice request (1 dog, 2 cats). She is friendly and my dog liked her right away. Knowing that I had someone to trust with my pets while being gone for a long day was a huge relief. I would not hesitate requesting Ashley again.
Jen was great. I had her come by to check on our cats and take care of the autolitter boxes because my elderly Mom could not do that. She was completely understanding and did a great job. We're going out of town again this week and Jen will be back again. Thanks Jen!
Usually when I am gone, my cats get anxious, which lasts a few days after I return. This time, both cats were very laid back and chill, not at all clingy. The house was neat and tidy. (They usually knock things down to show their disapproval at my being gone.) Obviously, they felt at ease with Erica and she did a great job of taking care of them. She also brought in my newspaper and mail and left it neatly where I had asked.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Waukesha on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of July 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 1,085 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Waukesha. 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.

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.
