“Paige is, hands down, one of the best pet sitters we've ever had. From the very first visit, it was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, not just the checklist of tasks. She sent frequent photo updates throughout each visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away — it felt like we never really left. Beyond the basics, Paige went above and beyond: she cleaned up a mess without being asked and kept the litter box spotless the entire time. Little things like that show real attentiveness and care, not just showing up and clocking out. If you're looking for someone thoughtful, reliable, and truly attentive to your pet's needs, look no further. I cannot say enough good things about Paige — I will be absolutely be booking her again.”
“William was fantastic with our kitties! He also was gracious when my trip was cut short and i arrived home six days earlier than planned. I really appreciated him stepping and securing a refund through Rover!! We will definitely use William again and highly recommend him to others!”
“Sarah was incredible with our two cats while we were on a trip! She was highly responsive and proactive, and we felt like our cats were in really great hands the entire time.”
“They were absolutely amazing at taking care of my cat and kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated how responsive, reliable, and punctual they were. Overall, they made the entire experience incredibly easy and stress-free. I would definitely recommend them!”
“Laura is so awesome and this is the second time we have her looking after our kitty! Our kitty Cleo also very obviously love Laura as well! She treats Cleo like her own and kept Cleo super entertained and satisfied. If needed in the future, we will definitely ask Laura again. Definitely recommend her!”
“Phoebe was a wonderful sitter for my two cats. Each Rover card had updates on how they were acting and multiple pictures of each. One of my cats had an FIV flare-up and she was great about keeping me updated on that. This was my first time booking with Phoebe, but I hope to be a repeat customer!”
“This was our first booking with Rebecca for daily drop-in visits with Susie the cat. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! She bonded with Susie right away, is an excellent communicator, left my house super clean, and went above and beyond offering to blow storm debris off the driveway. Highly recommend. We will be booking again. ;-)”
About: I have always been passionate about animal care, specifically dogs. I have 3.5 years of veterinary technician experience and have also worked at boarding facilities such as Pet Paradise. I am a student at Saint Louis University majoring in Biology, furthering my education in animal behavior. I enjoy jogging in my spare time, and have the stamina needed to play with or jog with pets. I am available on weekends during the day and most evenings. There’s nothing I love more than taking care of pets! I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! I am a current graduate student, and therefore am working several hours a day during the week, but I am available most nights and on the weekends anytime! I am a helicopter parent when it comes to my own dog, and treat other pets with the same level of care and caution. I love sending pictures (if allowed) to ensure great care, and frequently keeps owners updated on how their fur babies are doing.
“Suzanne went above and beyond for the week she watched my kitty. She’s a great communicator and made me feel very comfortable leaving my fur baby when I went home for the holidays. I’ll definitely use her again next time I’m out of town! Xox”
“Keirra is simply astounding! She is incredibly attentive to your pets needs as well as your own, and Is very clear on her Rover cards about how they are doing. She spends quality time with your pets and makes sure not just food and water, but things like pet cameras are operating so you can see them! She gets back to messages promptly and was flexible when my transportation was canceled and needing rescheduling. I highly recommend this amazing sitter!”
About: Hi! I'm Claire, and I'd love to care for your pets like they're my own. I was trained through the Fayetteville Animal Shelter to walk and care for dogs, and I spent many hours volunteering there. During college, I boarded dogs through Rover for three years, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I grew up with a high-energy yellow Lab named Covey, who sparked my lifelong love of dogs. We spent countless hours going on walks and playing outside. Today, I have a cat who somehow thinks he's a dog after being raised around one! I'm an active person who genuinely misses having a dog around, so I'd love the opportunity to give your pup the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. I'll make sure your pet is well cared for. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident they're in good hands. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I'll treat yours with the same care, patience, and love I'd want for my own. I currently work full-time, and I would be happy to walk your dog anytime after 4:30pm. I do not mind long walks or even runs at all! Your pet’s safety comes first. I'll use safe walking routes, stay alert, and I will provide plenty of care, attention, and water as needed. :)
“Coleman has been doing a great job checking on my father’s cat. My father is elderly and can’t bend down to fill the bowls or change the litter. Coleman has been consistent with the check ins and keeps me updated on how things are going. Thank you so much!”
About: Hello, I have many years of pet care under my belt and I'd love to show your pet some excellent care. I host dogs in my freetime on wag and I'm looking to expand that to rover. I'm very considerate, and I've grown up around a number of different dogs and cats. I think you'd be hard pressed finding someone as dedicated to details as me. I will bathe, walk, and tire your dog or cat out. Any special request are no problem, as I'm aware owners can be very picky about the care of their dog or cat. I've never met a challenge too great, or a request too daunting. If you're interested in my services, don't hesitate to contact. Thank you. I’m working part time as an event bartender and student. I have amble free time such that I am nearly available at any time. I live in an apartment building directly across from Forest park. I have 1 dog of my own that I take there various times throughout the day!
About: I've been hanging out with animals all my life; taking care of others' animal babies for close to a decade. No mess is too gnarly; I've popped pills and dispensed hairball meds. Love a long neighborhood walk or a long snuggle. Let me help take care of your fur babies! I do not have pets of my own; I much prefer being the fun pet aunt! I have siblings and close friends with dogs and cats, who I've spent a lot of time with and pet sit often. I'm flexible! Not having my own pets also means I have plenty of time and energy to spend with yours. I work full time M-F, but most weeks I work from home 3 days a week, and that can be your home with your fur baby. Whether I'm popping in for a walk or a potty break or spending several nights with your fur baby, they will be my priority. I love a long neighborhood walk, snuggles, and will take the time to play. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or routine, and I will be sure to keep things consistent. I'll work with you to be sure I understand your pupper or kitten's daily and weekly routine--feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and any other necessities.
“Niah was a great sitter! She was kind and enthusiastic at the our meet and greet. I knew my cats would be taken great care of and felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Also had some last minute travel changes and was easy to contact and flexible which was appreciated. Would work again with Niah!”
About: I had two dogs growing up which gave me a lot of experience taking care of pets. And when I wasn't to bring any more pets home, I turned to petsitting. This gave me more experience working with cats. Flexible work and fully remote school schedule! This makes pet care during the day possible for me. I am able to accommodate your pet's schedule as well. I am and always have been an animal lover. I would be taking care of your pet as if they were my own to ease their stress as well.
“Alena took such great care of our elderly cat with special medical needs. She was very communicative and gave us very detailed notes and shared photos with us. She helped ease our minds and made sure that our girl was well taken care of. Thank you, Alena!!!”
“We loved having Tori watch our cat over the holidays! She took fantastic care of him and got to know all his favorite habits and games while we were away. She also went above and beyond sending updates, photos & videos so we knew he was happy and well cared for! We'll absolutely be reaching out to Tori again next time we need pet sitting for either of our fur babies.”

We were thrilled with the time Sarah spent on our cats! They love attention so it was much less stressful coming home from a trip knowing that they were well cared for and attended to. They had plenty of food, clean water, and the litter boxes weren’t overflowing, what more can you ask for!
This is my first time using Rover and it was a great experience! I was concerned at first because I needed to be gone for over a month and my two cats have pretty different personalities that required different types of care, but Bethany was a pro in taking care of both of them and keeping them safe and happy.
Emma did a great job with my cats! Her rover cards always had pictures and video along with thorough updates so I didn’t have worry at all while I was away. It was clear my cats loved her and felt very comfortable around her. She also had no problem feeding my exotic pets and even watered some of my thirstier plants. She was always quick to get back to me will definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,343 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Wellston. 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 .

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.
