“Courtney is so dependable in caring for my two kitties. This time she worked s last minute booking into her already very busy schedule. Courtney would let me know if she was going to be a bit late or had to adjust the scheduling. But it was a lifesaver for me with a last-minute addition. I highly recommend Courtney for any pet lover.”

“Anjana was so amazing! She was super patient even though our cat was very slow to warm up. She sent so many pictures every day which I really appreciate, and our house was so clean when we got home. Anjana was a super thoughtful and attentive sitter and I will definitely book with her again in the future. Thanks so much!”

About: I’ve grown up with and around all sorts of animals and have taken care of some with medical issues. I’ve tended to pets such as chinchillas, snakes, farm animals, and more. I work full time in office so I’m available on the weekends and week nights. I can also do early mornings. If needed, I can create a more flexible schedule with a weeks notice and some communication. I do not have a yard and since I can’t do boarding, I will use your accommodations to make sure your babies are the most comfortable in their own environment.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was a young child. Always having dogs and cats of my own to care for, my friends and family have always relied on me to sit their fur babies when they are away. Recently I pet sat for a litter of puppies and a momma doggie. I had to make specialty food gruel for the puppies and monitor momma to make sure she was healthy. I helped the puppies nurse and always made sure they had fresh bedding (since they poop all over). I also had to care for another male dog in the same house and make sure he was kept away from the room that the momma and puppies were in. It was such an amazing experience and I would love to do it again. I also volunteer at the Austin Animal Shelter (Austin Pets Alive), where I work in the parvovirus unit working with extremely sick puppies. I administer oral medication, clean up their poop, do daily feedings and have experinece in IV treatments. I also volunteer in the cat unit helping sick and injured cat rehabilitate giving oral and IV medication, cleaning wounds and feedings. My belated kitty, Morrisis, was a senior cat, who in his later years, became paralyzed from the waist down. I did daily physical therapy with him, built him specialized litter boxes and a set of wheels to get around with. I also had to clean his wounds and poop off of his rear end, since he no longer had control of his bladder. I administered CBD to help with pain management. There is a special place in my heart for sick and disabled animals and I give them just as much love as every animal deserves, which is all of my love. I my free time, I foster stray cats in my neighborhood, taking them to their first vet appointments, getting shots and managing any sickness they may have. I foster them myself until I can find a suitable forever home for them. My work schedule is usually 5 hours a day. This allows me to do Drop In services and walks before my full time job, as well as multiple times afterwards. Throughout the week or weekend I am more than happy to house sit and give lots of attention and care to your fur babies morning, afternoon, evening and over night. When I am in my clients home, I allow supervised playtime outside and will keep your pup entertained. In the heat of Texas summers I will minimize outside play time and play with your pup more inside so they do not get over heated, unless you request otherwise. I do 2-3 walks a day depending on the dogs breed, age and anynhealth concerns. I'll take them around the neighborhood to stretch their legs or on a local hiking trail/ park if they are a more active dog. I keep a close inventory on any medications the animal may have and stick to the correct time for administering medication/ wound treatment. Meal time is usually on a schedule, unless you free feed, and I will always make sure there is cold fresh water available for your fur babies (cats and dogs alike). For kitties, I will engage them in playtime and try to get out their zoomies so they do not tear up furniture, unless they are sick or injured.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, whether they were part of my family or in the homes my mom cleaned. The best part of my day was seeing a pet eagerly waiting with a wagging tail and treats in hand. Since I was young teen, pet owners have entrusted me to care for their furry friends whether it’s walking them or playing together. I have a knack for quickly connecting with dogs, making them feel safe and loved. My goal is to ensure every pet I care for is happy and well-cared for, reflecting the trust owners have placed in me. I’m currently a student at the University of Texas at Austin, but I’m originally from Houston. During the summer, I enjoy keeping myself occupied with my furry friends. If you need my services, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I’ll do my best to respond promptly. Considering my current schedule, I’m available any day of the week at any time. I'm dedicated to ensuring that all pets feel comfortable and secure, which includes maintaining a clean and hazard-free space. I ensure that all play areas are designed with safety in mind, providing ample room for pets to explore while using secure fencing and supervised playtime. I also engage in regular communication with pet owners, keeping them informed about their pets' well-being and activities. My approach is always gentle and compassionate, ensuring a nurturing atmosphere.

Sonia was an amazing pet sitter for our cat Dottie! She was extremely communicative, left wonderful notes, cute pictures, and just a pleasant person all-around to get to know! This was our first time using Rover and she far exceeded our expectations. We felt extremely at ease knowing Dottie was in her care and will 100% be using her as a drop in sitter in the future. Thank you so much Sonia!

Rebecca was great! She watched our kitty while my wife and I were gone for our wedding week. Rebecca eased my anxiety of being away from Scarlett by being on time, consistently playing with her, and ensuring me her food and water were always refilled. Would definitely recommend Rebecca to watch your animal!

Terra is amazing!! She is the first experience I’ve had using Rover and she was so thorough and thoughtful with her questions regarding Charlie and his needs. Terra was so helpful with the initial booking process, very communicative, and left the sweetest notes in the daily rover cards.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in West Lake Hills on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 3,907 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Lake Hills. 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 Lake Hills. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
