“Linh did a great job caring for our cat Josie. She was easy to communicate with and even helped us troubleshoot an autofeeder when it stopped working. Would be happy to work with Linh again.”
“Lucy is awesome, I highly recommend! She took care of my cat Apollo while I was away - you can tell she really cares about the pets she cares for, and gives extremely detailed updates on her visits. I’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Wendy is kind and trustworthy. She took the time to get to know my dog and made sure she was comfortable at the first visit. My dog is a unique breed so I really appreciated the patience. She was very professional!”
“Brenda is great. Very responsible, reliable and flexible. And she has a great manner with the dogs. I like things done a certain way, and she totally gets that which I really appreciate!”
“Stephanie was the most amazing cat sitter, she sent tons of photos, videos, and updates that made leaving them behind feel easier! She was attentive and interactive with my cat who loves humans and patient and kind to my shy cat. I will book with Stephanie again!”
“Danya helped taking care of my cat for four days and my cat is very happy about her visits. Danya was able to come visits three times per day for three days in a row, which is a big commitment that I originally didn’t expect any sitter could do. Not only did she come as scheduled, but also she actually spent time understanding and playing with my cat. I will definitely ask her to look after my cat again in the future.”
“Matt and Alyssa did a great job; cats' area was clean and tidy, the cats were in excellent condition, the updates they sent were very reassuring, and they even braved our long driveway with snow on it. Highly recommend!”
About: I've lived with animals since I was 11—including 3 cats and a dog—and my mom has always adopted senior pets with medical needs, so I’m used to gentle care, giving medications, and adapting routines for older or anxious animals. I'm calm, quiet, and patient, which makes me a great match for pets that are shy, reactive, or need a soft presence. I respect animals’ boundaries, take their comfort seriously, and genuinely enjoy being around them—whether that means walks, playtime, or just existing together in peace. I'm especially good with cats and have experience with dogs who need space or structure. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and prefer part-time work, so I can prioritize animals without feeling rushed. I take my time, move at the pet’s pace, and always make space for their needs. I prioritize calm, quiet, and consistency when coming to clients homes. I respect each animal's space, follow all care instructions exactly, and check in often if something seems off. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and understood at all times.
“Juyeon was so kind to my cat while I was away for a few days, was great at communicating, and very flexible. When I extended my trip last minute, Juyeon was able to come for another two visits! I definitely recommend Juyeon!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and grown up taking care of them. I’ve cared for small and large dogs, enjoy spending time with them, and giving them the best possible care. I am currently a student and work part time, but I only have class in the morning and work from home a majority of the time I enjoy spending quality time with the pets and make sure their safety comes first. Easily reachable on my cell if there’s any issues or concerns. I have a small fenced backyard area to let the dogs roam and enjoy time outside. No children, other pets, or other cautionary exposures for the animals.
“longfei and Luning are so helpful taking care my cat. Everything is done professionally and friendly. Most importantly, she seems to be happy. Will definitely recommend!”
“Our sheltie Pepper adores Devon! We usually use Devon for overnight stays. This time, we asked Devon to feed and walk Pepper while we were away from our home. As usual, Devon provided excellent care for Pepper. She is reliable and never ceases to impress us with her many talents. Devon is amazing and is always our first-choice dog sitter on Rover. Thank you, Devon!”
About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats in my life. I also volunteered at an animal shelter, feeding and playing with cats, feeding and playing with dogs, and feeding and playing with rabbits! I am a full-time teacher, so I have availability in the summer, weekends, and on school breaks. I can do drop in visits and/or walks! When I am going in to other’s homes, I am respectful of their space. I will make sure it is as clean as it was when I arrived.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Wayland is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Wayland
Our cat, Rubyn, has diabetes that requires an insulin shot twice a day so finding a reliable sitter that we can trust to provide those shots while spending quality time with him has been challenging. Luckily we found Lucy! She was fantastic. She clearly made Rubyn very comfortable based off of the numerous picture and videos she sent along with the detailed report cards. We were extremely nervous to go away on this trip but each update put me and my wife more and more at ease. She showed so much love and affection to our little guy. We can’t recommend Lucy enough! We’ll definitely be using her again
We are fortunate to find Heidi who did a wonderful job with taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She was very attentive, and clearly cared about their well-being. When we returned, our cats looked healthy, happy, and relaxed—which says everything. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would happily recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
Our cats, who had done well with Kate in earlier booking, got scared for some reason this time and were either aggressive or hid from her. Kate kept us informed about what was happening and stayed in touch so we could exchange information about what behavior we were seeing on indoor cams. If she hadn't, we might have felt like we needed to return and see what was wrong. We appreciated the communication.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Wayland on Rover is $49.95 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
