“Katrina was awesome! She left me great messages and photos. Even though my cat was so skittish, he never really came out for her, she's still trying to get a picture of him every time so I could see him.. She cleaned up everything when he decided he was going to make a mess. I would highly recommend her and I will use her again.”

“Sophie has cared for our cat multiple times now. We love having her! She always leaves things clean and shares a photo of the food bowl if he is too hidden away as he tends to be. The daily updates are brief, but we've had the reverse (long chatty updates with a super messy cat sitter) and prefer Sophie's reliability. We are lucky to have found her!”

“Amie was such a pleasure to work with! She was patient, responsive, and timely in her communication, and provided wonderful daily updates. She also takes the best pictures! Murphy is typically shy and takes time to warm up to new people, but from the moment she met Amie, she seemed comfortable around her and even flopped over for her! That comfort only seemed to grow throughout the stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed, and content cat and would happily book with Amie again!”

About: Hi, I'm Mia! I've had cats and dogs my entire life, and I am OBSESSED with all of the animals in my life! :) I've been pet sitting for as long as I can remember, and I know how important your pets are to you because I feel the same way about mine. I'll treat your pet like they're my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while you're away! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to adapt my day or week to meet each client's needs. I always make sure pets receive the time, attention, and care they deserve! Every pet is unique, so I base my care on each client's preferences and their pet's individual needs. I'll be highly communicative throughout the visit, providing updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing! :)

About: I believe the best pet care comes from patience, consistency, and attention to detail. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable and secure. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, litter box care, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet like one of my own. You’ll also receive updates and photos after every visit, so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide dependable and consistent care throughout the week. I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I understand how important routine is for pets, so I’ll work to keep their schedule as normal as possible. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, playtime, feeding, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m committed to being reliable and punctual. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and any special needs. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean, secure, and locking up after every visit. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and will contact you immediately if I notice anything out of the ordinary. You’ll also receive updates and photos after every visit so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Caring and reliable dog walker with a passion for pets and a knack for building furry friendships. Dedicated to ensuring dogs get the exercise and attention they need for happy, healthy lives. As a full-time teacher, my afternoons and evenings are dedicated to providing loving, reliable pet care. After school, I focus on giving your pet the attention they need, whether it’s a leisurely walk, playtime, or some quiet companionship. I have a flexible schedule in the late afternoons and evenings, which allows me to give your pet quality time and care when they need it most—whether it's to burn off energy, get some extra cuddles, or enjoy a calming routine. Your pet’s needs always come first, and I ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. In my dog walking service, I prioritize the well-being and safety of pets both in their own homes and during walks. At a client's home, I ensure pets are comfortable and have everything they need before heading out. During walks, I maintain a watchful eye on their behavior and surroundings, ensuring they get the exercise they need while keeping them safe from potential hazards. I also provide water and treats as necessary, and always follow any specific instructions or routines provided by the pet owner to ensure consistency and comfort for their furry companions.

I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, supervision, and attention while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

Amelia is awesome!!!! Was our first time trying this service and she instantly put us at ease. Kind, caring, and obviously passionate about taking good care of our furry family members. When she stopped by for a meet & greet, they (my 2 enthusiastic big dogs and one nonchalant cat) immediately sensed she was there to engage and play with them and I knew all would be well, and it was!! Already planning her next visit, she’s at the top of our list. (“We love you Amelia!!” - your new best buddies, Kiara, Dakota, and Hunter)

Rydia watched our older cat Dave for a week while we were out of town. We don't leave her very often because she's older and so it was very nice to have her come in take pictures of him and keep us updated as to how Dave is doing and it just gave us peace of mind that we knew our cat was being well taken care of while we were gone

FAQs for Cat Sitting - West Springfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in West Springfield is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 per visit. On Rover, 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 7,162 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Springfield. 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 .

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

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 , 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.
