“Marianna was absolutely wonderful. She took very good care of our senior kitty Zelda, which involved tracking and administering different meals, giving nightly meds, making sure Z was comfy with her laser light and TV programs, and more. She left beautiful and detailed notes, sent great pics of Z, and went above and beyond too, doing things like filling our bird feeder and washing and refilling the water dishes we keep out for birds, which was not something we asked her to do but was very much appreciated. She left everything better than she found it. She responded quickly when I reached out to her too. Marianna has a sweet, calm energy that immediately put us and Z at ease. We definitely plan to work with Marianna next time Z needs grounded and loving care.”

“Marquise stayed at my place to take care of my two cats while I was out of town. He had a very calm and loving demeaner and was able to coax both cats out of hiding the first time he was over, which has never happened with anyone!!! I was very grateful for the updates and happy to hear that the shy skittish cat warmed up and let him pet her. I was fully expecting the other cat to mark his territory, which he always does when I'm away, but apparently he felt comfortable enough with Marquise that he didn't pee on anything! It was so nice to know that my cats and my home were being taken care of and took a lot off my mind while I was away. I would highly recommend Marquise!”

About: Your pet’s new favorite visitor. 🐾🐕 Hi! My name is Laileen. 💕 I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and spending time with them has always been one of my favorite things. I’m currently in college working toward my dream of becoming a veterinarian, so getting to care for pets while working toward that goal truly means a lot to me. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your furry family member. Whether you’re away for a few hours or a few days, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and lots of love. Some pets love long walks and playtime, while others are happiest relaxing on the couch or getting belly rubs. Whatever makes your pet happiest, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting to know each pet’s unique personality. There’s nothing better than earning their trust (and maybe becoming their new best friend too!). 🐾 I’ll always treat your pet like family and care for them the same way I’d want someone to care for my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! 💕 As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy fitting pet care into my week. -Mondays and Wednesdays: 9am-12pm -Tuesdays And Thursday's : 1:30pm-6pm -Fridays-Sunday: Always available! 😚 Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. Before every visit, I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can care for them in the way they’re most comfortable. I’ll carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions (if needed), and any house rules you provide. Whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home, I’ll always make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I also know how reassuring it is to hear how your pet is doing while you’re away. You can expect regular updates and lots of photos so you can relax knowing they’re having a great time. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel loved while giving you complete peace of mind. ❤️

About: I have grown up with dogs, so I am more than aware that they are not only a pet but a family member. I have always raised my dogs and cats from infancy and cared for them through their senior years. My experience has taught me that every pet is different and should be cared for as such. It has also given me the basic knowledge of administering various kinds of medication. Pet care is simply another part of my routine. Having my pets, I know the importance of walks and playtime. In addition, I am accustomed to different breeds, from high-energy German Shepards to lethargic bulldogs. My availability will depend on my part-time work schedule; however, I am primarily available from late afternoon to evening. I care for pets based on their daily routine; every pet is different, so I'll always inquire about your pet's routine. In addition, I will always ask about your pet's age, allergies, medication, and, most importantly, if they are well-trained and socialized. I have no problem caring for a problematic dog so long as their behavior is discussed beforehand. I aim to have your pet well cared for and safe when you return.

About: I have helped my neighbors with their dogs since I was a child , I have always loved animals. I have had stray cats walk up to me meowing hungry and I always try to go out of my way to feed them and to give them some love . I truly believe every animal needs to be loved and it is our job as humans to do this. I am a dog and a cat person I have one of each at home which I love so much. I know how important my animals are to me and I will love your pet as my own whether I am walking them or just dropping in to check on them I am currently a full time student, however I want a job that makes me happy and animals make me happy. I have a wide availability. I talk to my pets just as I would talk to your pet with a gentle kind voice . I am also very cautious when walking dogs as sometimes they can be very eager to get out and walk .

About: I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-in visits Monday - Sunday. I am generally available mornings, afternoons, and evenings on most days. I do have classes on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 1:00–4:00 PM, but I am available before and after those hours. Outside of that, I am open and flexible and happy to accommodate visits as needed to make sure your cat is cared for and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize safety, routine, and making sure each pet feels comfortable in their own space. I will follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, medication if needed, and any specific routines the pet is used to. I try to take my time with each visit so pets don’t feel rushed or stressed. I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and attention or playtime depending on their personality and comfort level. I also pay close attention to their behavior so I can notice anything unusual and communicate with the owner. I of course will also send lots of photo updates so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. Additionally, if needed, I’m happy to help with small additional tasks like bringing in mail or watering plants. And before leaving, I always make sure everything is clean, tidy, and secure. My goal is to keep pets safe, calm, and comfortable so owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

About: Hi everyone my name is Angie and I may be new to Rover but I am not new to loving and caring for precious pups. I currently don't have any dogs living with me but prior to July 2025 I had my own fur babies since 1992. I decided this would be a wonderful way for me to get some puppy love, bring peace of mind to traveling pet parents, and make some money while providing a loving service. I have taken care of many of my friends pups along the way. Saki, Sophie, Sushi, Bodhi, Lucy, and Honey. I also occasionally foster dogs to help my friend's rescue. I would love to meet and care for your babies. My home is a safe and loving space for pups to play and have their "stay-cation"!! I work from home and will be available to be with the pet pretty much all day. Consistent time outdoors will be provided weather permitting. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play or grab that nice patch of sunshine to nap in. I maintain a clean and calm environment.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life from my own pups to my friends! I have experience with big and small dogs of all different breeds and am happy to help. I work Monday through Friday from 9-5 so I can help in the early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays for drop-ins or walks. If close by, I can also help with last minute needs. I have experience with runners so I’m very careful to ensure your pets won’t get out without their leash and my supervision. They are in safe hands to be cared for and come home safely!

About: I have had many dogs and I am an animal lover. I currently have one dog who is very friendly. I volunteered at the local animal shelter for a while and took dog walking classes. My daughter is studied animal science in college. I learn from her as well. I’m responsible and loving to all animals. My dogs have been very well cared for. I care for animals as if they are children and I am passionate about animal welfare. I am home all day so I have time to look after the animals. My house is very dog friendly and full of love. My yard is fully fenced and clean and full of dog toys. You will be very happy with my services and your dog will too! Hope to be a regular part of your dogs life. I look forward to the opportunity to serve you and your dogs needs. Also I want to add that I’m close to the airport so if you’re traveling from LAX I’m right on the way! It would be a great convenience! Please no dogs over 65lbs. I may occasionally go out for lunch or to get food. I spend lots of time playing and engaging with the pets here. Play time is supervised. Please set your drop off and pick up times within a one hour time frame. Be on time for drop offs and pick ups. Dogs should have a collar or harness on. Play time in my large backyard with music and toys. We do bubbles, water play for the select few who like water and lots of fetch for good exercise. I provide great pictures that can be cherished for years to come. My backyard is fully fenced.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - West Athens

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 9,412 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Athens. 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 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 Meet & Greet .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Athens. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
