Bree always goes above and beyond in looking after Chuck. When he wasn't feeling well, she sent photos, video, and a detailed report of his symptoms. We are very grateful to have someone knowledgeable and considerate looking after our boy.

We always feel confident leaving our pup with Abigail when we go away. Everything is smooth from start to finish: great availability, flexibility, communication, dependable, and detailed updates (which are especially helpful for our dog with special needs). We recommend Abigail to everyone and anyone: from pets with special needs to the easier ones! You will never worry about your pets care when you go away.

We asked Natalie to drop in on our two cats while away for a couple of weeks. Natalie quickly assessed and understood the differing needs and habits of our two indoor/outdoor cats. From her photo updates, they clearly felt comfortable and happy with her. Upon our return after two weeks, both boys were in good health and in good spirits! Thanks!

Lukas was superb. They went above and beyond to not only care for my cat but also alleviate any anxiety I had with the level of competence they showed. They brought in my packages that were delivered and cleaned up cat mess, followed my instructions to a "T", I returned to my cat after 5 days and they were not starving or starved for attention, I receives such an in depth update every visit along with pictures. Any questions they had, they asked instead of assuming and deciding for themselves. A+ will absolutely be calling Lukas whenever Cooper needs a sitter!

Our two cats really liked Mickala. She went above and beyond helping us with several situations such as trimming a cat's nails and cleaning up some ants which got into the auto-feeders.

Aly was wonderful! She was very patient during the meet & greet and was not phased by the barking. She was positive and very sweet. We loved all her updates at every visit. We were encouraged to hear things improved on each visit. Our three Poms are spoiled by staying home and running around in their dances in back yard so no walking or dog parks for them. We will definitely have Aly back in the future!!

Grace was so good with our cat, Guppy. She was always on time and followed the instructions we gave her perfectly. Guppy loves to play until he's out of breath, and Grace sent us pictures showing with him panting from the fun time he had. We'd definitely recommend booking with Grace, and we plan to again next time we have to leave town.

Rachel has been such an amazing help with our two cats, especially now that our senior cats requires daily pills. It’s such relief to know that when we go away we know for sure he will get his medications with Rachel. I’d highly recommend her, and will definitely be booking with her again as needed!

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mother ran an animal rescue, and I was fortunate to spend my childhood helping care for, socialize, and train animals of all kinds; primarily dogs and cats. This experience taught me not only how to understand animal behavior, but also the patience, compassion, and consistency that every pet deserves. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience and attention, I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel secure and cared for. As a pet sitter and walker, I treat every animal as an individual and make their comfort, safety, and well-being my top priorities. You can expect reliable communication, attentive care, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming someone you can trust whenever you need an extra helping hand. Experience Highlights * Raised in a family-run animal rescue environment * Experience caring for and handling dogs and cats of all ages * Familiar with basic training and positive reinforcement techniques * Comfortable with shy, anxious, senior, and high-energy pets * Patient, gentle, and attentive to individual needs * Reliable communication and dependable care As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility to incorporate pet care naturally into my daily routine. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, play sessions, or simply having a calm presence nearby, I can provide care tailored to their individual needs. I take pride in being reliable, responsive, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I provide calm, attentive, and individualized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow all instructions closely so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment with minimal disruption. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of companionship and affection. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can respond appropriately to each pet’s comfort level; whether they are energetic, shy, anxious, or senior. I aim to create a safe, relaxed atmosphere where pets feel secure and cared for. If caring for pets in my own home (when applicable), I ensure a quiet, clean, and supervised environment with consistent routines, regular outdoor breaks, enrichment, and lots of attention. Safety is always the top priority, and I only introduce new animals in a controlled and compatible way. Overall, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Whately on Rover is $24.31 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 491 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Whately. 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 Whately. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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 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.
