“Sabrina did a great job with my cats and gave me tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Sabrina was friendly and responsive, and I especially appreciated how thorough my update was immediately after the visit with my cats. Super grateful! Five stars!”
“Olivia was so good with our dogs and cats almost immediately after meeting them. She clearly has a way with animals and was so kind and sweet to them! Very communicative and responsive. Would highly recommend having her sit for your furry friends!”
“Exceptional service! We switched to in-home drop-ins for our two dogs this trip, and Courtney made it a seamless success. She is prompt, professional, and deeply attentive to the dogs. She went above and beyond for our pups, and we will absolutely be using her again for future vacations. Highly recommended!”
About: I genuinely, whole heartedly love animals. Have worked with animals (grooming, walking, feeding) since 15, work with young & senior also give meds & arthritis massages. Patient, kind, loving and ready to spread my love for animals. Have worked at Kennelwood, No Leash needed, Camp Bow Wow and volunteer at the humane society. All animals deserve love. I’m available to house sit or pop in for walks, I start my new job 8-4 M-F so available anytime to house sit during the week & weekend would just be out during that time if house sitting. I love to go for walks and play so your baby will definitely be stimulated with me around! If you have toys or treats I will keep them entertained and work with whatever training goals you have for them. If a tail isn’t wagging it’s my goal to get it to!
“Jill was absolutely THE BEST with our Sammy. She does what she is supposed to do and so much more. Your babies could not be in better hands than with Jill. I will recommend her to EVERYONE!”
“She was amazing. She was there when she was supposed to be and provided me with pictures and updates on how he was doing. She was very respectful and took amazing care of my dog while I was out of town. I highly recommend using her for your dog care needs.”
“Jenny is an all-star catsitter. My three cats adore her—I think my orange cat actually prefers Jenny to having us at home—and she sends the best pictures. They’re very well loved and played with in her care. She’s our go-to!”

We go on frequent walks and have play time throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard where pets can safely play, exercise, and enjoy some outdoor time.

“Latasha looked after our kitty (Lazare) and house for a week in July. She was very professional and courteous. She took the time to write down instructions on our meet and greet. Lazare loved her! I appreciated her communication and photos and she also took good care of the house and plants. I wholeheartedly recommend Latasha.”
About: The last 20 years I haven’t gone without a dog or cat in my home. I wouldn’t imagine one without! I have my babygirl German Sheppard named Maggie, my 5 month old golden boy named Teddy, and my old man kitty named Frank! These 3 are my world. I am always a go-to for friends and family when they need a quick drop in to be fed or walked or a sleepover for a few days! Whether your pet wants a day filled with frisbee and pool time or snuggles on the couch I’m your gal! Part time student and part time working! I have a good amount of free time throughout the day due to my very flexible online school schedule and work schedule. I live around 2-3 large parks with trails and plenty of wide open space for walks and playtime. Whether your pet wants more playtime with toys inside and outside or just cuddles on the couch I am beyond ready for either one.
About: My name is pronounced like Taya. I have been providing pet care personally and professionally since I was in high school. When I started, I genuinely just loved being around animals and wanted a way make an income while doing something I enjoyed. Years later and I still hold the same sentiment. My family and I have always welcomed dogs and cats into our homes and cared for them as additional kids in the household. I took a break from pet care to focus on building myself and my goals, but now as a homeowner of three years, I want to extend my home and services again to your fur babies. I work full-time, 100% remotely from home for a law firm located in Pennsylvania. I am always at home, especially during the weekdays, with my six pets (two dogs and four cats). I have a flexible schedule and can arrange my work day accordingly. I am able to work with you and your pet's needs, so just communicate with me! I have a 0.3 acre fenced yard that my two dogs absolutely love to race around in. They get great exercise out there and are able to release their high energy. I am attuned to my animal's needs and provide a lot of supervision and care since I am usually at home. The same way that I would treat my own pets/home is exactly how I would treat and respect yours. I am reliable, punctual, and compassionate.
About: I have 17 years experience in caring for pets both large and small, including 3 years of vet med experience and owning special needs animals myself. I own and run my own equestrian training business and with my kiddos in school, I have gap times that I'd love to fill with providing amazing care to animals in the area. My goal is to provide the same care for your pets as you do. Keeping animals happy and safe is of the utmost importance. Supervision and vigilance is key! Special care instructions are encouraged and notes to summarize our visit will be included.
About: I love all breeds of dogs. I used to walk my neighbors doggies for fun when I was little. I've house sat for many friends with animals & plants for long periods of time. I've raised many puppies in my life time. I have two of my own that are now 2 and 5. They're everything to me. There's absolutely no better feeling than hearing the pitter patter of their feet on the floor as they're coming to attack me with love and kisses. I've never been without at least one dog in my household as long as I've been alive and I wouldn't have it any other way. I've also played sports my whole life so I love being active and playing games with the pups. I'm currently working part time so my availability is pretty open for the most part right now. I'm mainly unavailable after 4pm on Tuesdays and Fridays. I have two full sized crates at my home and a fenced in back patio with great sun for sunbathing. If I'm in your home, I'll respect your home as if it were mine & make sure the babies get soo much lot of love and attention. Picture/ video updates as often as you'd like. ❤️
“My brother and mom left positive feedback to me about her while I was gone. Bastet and Ginger were pretty happy when I came back. I'm told especially Ginger really liked her and was genuinely looking forward to her visits which is unusual considering she's a pretty scared dog. I'm super happy with the treatment.”
About: I am a firm believer that pets are family members and should be treated as such. I grew up always having a dog in the house. I am a very loving and caring person and have always found comfort in having a pet around and taking care of them. I have two dogs of my own and two guinea pigs. They are my world and are very spoiled. I have experience in giving medication or special care as mine require that as well, feeding, bathing, and walking. I work three 12 hour shifts a week and one weekend a month so I have plenty of open opportunities to take care of your fur babies! I am committed into following any certain order or instructions you are willing to give me in taking care of your pet. I am passionate in keeping your animal comfortable in the environment that they know and love.
“First time user and was very skeptical to have a stranger come into my home and care for my doggies. I am so happy and very pleased that I found Jennifer. She is very kind and my puppy who is normally barking and fearful of strangers warned up and kissed and played with her. Will be using her again and always. Dogs look happy and safe. She even snapped and sent some of the very cutest close up photos of our fur babies during her check-ins.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,295 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Alton. 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 West Alton. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
