“Took really good care of my fur babies and was conscientious and tidy in my apartment. Loved the updates and photos! I will definitely re-book and it made me very comfortable in a stressful work event that I knew my cats were taken care of, especially my newly diabetic cat!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. As a cat owner of two, I’m very familiar with daily feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing changes in behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. In addition to caring for my own cats, I’ve also looked after two medium-to-large dogs for friends. This included feeding, walks, playtime, providing companionship, and making sure they stayed on their regular routines while their owners were away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I always strive to provide patient, attentive, and loving care so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a part of my everyday life as I care for my two cats. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making sure they get the attention and care they need. For drop-in visits, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, clean up after them as needed (including litter box cleaning for cats), provide playtime, affection, and companionship, and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications (if needed), or your pet’s preferences.
“Sally was wonderful in playing and giving attention to our 3 kitties with very different personalities. Additionally, she was marvelous giving updates and sending pictures would definitely recommend and would love to have her care for our kitties again.”
“Tom was great with our cat Bindy. He played with him, sent pictures every visit, and was very communicative through the visits. Next time we go away, Tom will be the first person we call.”
“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”
“Brittany was awesome! She was communicative, timely, and caring for our cat! This was our first time using Rover and we were really impressed with Brittany’s work and the app itself!”
“Angelica is a wonderful pet sitter, she is very friendly and responsive. She took good care of my cat and did everything that I requested and more. My cat loved her, and I had a worry-free trip knowing that my cat is in good hands. I will definitely book her again in the future and recommend her to my friends and family! Thank you Angelica!”
“Juyeon was great with our cats, and our shy cat opened up to her almost right away. We appreciate her communication regarding updates for the cats and coordinating timing of the visits. Overall, highly recommended!”
“Wendy was wonderful! She was dependable and very caring for our 13 + year old dog. It was obvious when Wendy arrived one day b-4 we got out the door how happy Lady was to see her. Highly recommend! John and Di”
“Devon was amazing with our cats! They bonded with her right away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond with little things like washing their dishes, checking on them in their very good hiding places, and keeping the litter box clean. The photo updates were also such a highlight and comforting while we were away. We highly recommend Devon and would absolutely book her again!”
“Second time with Samantha, and as with her previous visits with Harlan, she was great; sent cute photo updates and I came home to a well-cared-for kitty. Samantha is always responsive/excellent with communication, too!”
“Danya took great care of our cats while we were away. She is a great communicator and provided detailed updates and tons of photos. Would not hesitate one bit to have her watch our pets again.”
“Madeleine is absolutely amazing! I have a very shy but super sweet cat who is usually wary of strangers, but she loved Madeleine from her very first visit. I was so impressed! Madeleine sent me adorable pictures every day, was incredibly responsive, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I will 100% hire her again and feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful, trustworthy pet sitter. I highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up with Goldens and as an adult have always had a dog. My entire family loves dogs and our own dog, Leo, loves to have canine company to play in the house and go out for walks. Boarding: I can only accept hypoallergenic dogs Day Care: I can only accept hypoallergenic dogs Dog Walk: I am happy to walk dogs of all kinds. Hypoallergenic and non-hypoallergenic alike :-) I am a stay at home Mom to 4 teenagers with lots of flexibility to care for dogs. My own dog loves playmates and my kids all love to take long walks with furry four leggeds. I leash-walk dogs at least twice a day. Happy to let those who are voice command trained to be off leash if owner approves. We have a large crate if your dog likes to have a separate space for sleeping. Otherwise he/she can sleep on a dog bed or snuggle up with one of us humans. Whether your dog needs a drop-in walk, day care or boarding my family and I will take excellent care of him/her.
“Charlene is the absolute best and goes above and beyond every time in caring for our cat Julius. Leaving him is so stressful for us, but now with Charlene taking care of him, that stress is gone and replaced with joy at how happy, cared for, and loved he feels while we’re away.”

Devon took such wonderful care of Dutton and Ranch again! She always goes above and beyond and gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. She’s thoughtful, reliable, and clearly cares so much about our cats. We always come home to happy, well cared for pets and couldn’t recommend her more.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Wellesley on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 5,374 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Wellesley. 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 Wellesley. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
