Lucy did such a wonderful job caring for our cat, Otis, while we were away for a week. The visits were as planned and the cutest photos were shared with us each day. We can not wait to use again!

Jocelyn was so great with my crazy boys! They’re both still in their puppy eras and have a ton of love and energy that she handled so well! Definitely will be using her again!

About: I have taken care of and owned dogs my entire life, I grew up with 15 dogs on 3 acres. I have never not owned a dog with my senior pit coming up on 17 years with me. Currently home full time most days of the week, kids will be in school full time. I can work around your schedule & needs for pick-up, drop-off or drop ins. I live on 5 acres away from all main streets and a private drive for plenty of running space. I have converted my shed into a climate controlled dog house that has a fenced in area for the runners but if you prefer them to be inside I have plenty of space.

Taylor was great and very communicative! And my kitties must have loved her because she was able to give belly rubs to my kitty that is normally skittish toward strangers 😍 Will definitely request Taylor again in the future!

Katelyn arrived on time and communicated with us during her visit with Ozzie. He is diabetic and she gave him his insulin injection and other meds. She took really good care of him. We will definitely call on her again.

About: I’ve grown up alongside dogs and other animals and helped take care of them since I was young. When I was sixteen, my family adopted our puppy Sal at eight weeks old, and it was my responsibility to take care of him, train him, and love on him. From there, I volunteered at Almost Home animal shelter in Van Buren for two years, where I walked dogs of all sizes and weights, played with them, fed and cared for them, and cleaned out their kennels and bowls. As of now, I’m living away from my family dog since I’m in college, but I’m helping a friend of mine walk and train her newly adopted Cane Corso (she’s a sweetie). I’ve watched dogs for friends and family all through the years, as well. As far as cats go, I’ve loved them since I was a kid, and I adopted one two years ago! His name is Walter, he’s a tabby and the sweetest boy alive, and I love taking care of him, even if he shreds my arms sometimes. Pets need love and patience, and that’s exactly what I have for them. :) I’m currently out of college classes for the summer, so my schedule is very flexible! I can work with any requests you send me, so long as we have ample time to discuss everything you’re looking for. I can easily adapt to your pet’s regular schedule, including mealtimes, bedtime, medication, if they need to be crated, playtimes, etc. The comfort and happiness of your pet is my first focus.

About: I have house-sat and cared for both dogs and cats, as well growing up and having animals living with me almost my whole life (both my own and roomate’s pets). I have had to administer medicine to both dogs and cats in the past while taking care of them, and am comfortable with doing so. Drop-In Visits: Weekdays, I can typically provide these in the very early morning (630am) and evening (after 5pm). Weekends I will usually have more flexibility. House Sitting: I typically work full time during the week (Monday-Friday), so I am gone 10-11 hours total (up to 45 minute commute each way, and then an 9 hour shift). When you request a booking, I will make sure to give you more specific details on what my schedule looks like during your dates if it varies from my normal availability. I will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would treat my own! I know pets are like family, and I want you to know they are in good hands!

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 7 years and have cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have many references from happy clients and treat every pet like they’re my own! I currently have a 95 pound American Pit Bull Terrier, a Corgi, and a cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for both large and small dogs as well as feline friends. I’m experienced with puppies, senior pets, and administering medications, and I’m happy to follow any special routines or care instructions. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medications, or extra patience and attention, I’m here to help. One of my favorite experiences was getting to bring a client’s dog to their wedding so they could be part of their special day. I love helping families create memories with their pets and am always happy to go the extra mile whenever I can! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and providing plenty of photo and video updates while you’re away. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable until you’re back home. I’m a nanny, which means I make my own schedule and have a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m also a college student taking just six credit hours this semester, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I understand the importance of not overbooking myself, so I only accept bookings that allow me to give every pet the attention and care they deserve. If I’m not nannying, in class, or spending time with my own pets, you’ll probably find me visiting one of my furry clients! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, following their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m comfortable administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs on walks, feeding, playing, and providing plenty of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with lots of photos and messages, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own and strive to make every visit as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets.

Madelynn was amazing with my kitties, and gave them loads of love and attention. She sent great pics & kept me updated the entire time! I felt so much more comfortable with her there. She was warm & friendly, wanting to introduce herself beforehand, and gave some information about herself, which made the whole process that much better!

About: I work from home most days of the week, so your dog or cat would have a buddy throughout the day! I have experience with all breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs. My own dog takes medications and so I am very familiar with giving medications and watching for any medical distress. I have one cat, so dogs must be good with cats/small animals. My dog, Pippin, loves to play and we go on multiple off leash walks throughout the day. I love animals and will love your pets like they are mine! My dog, Pippin, has separation anxiety so I understand how to comfort and care for dogs that get a little nervous without their owner. I worked in a veterinary clinic with dogs and cat. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sorts of sizes and ages and am relaxed and intuitive in possible stressful situations. I am very gentle with animals and believe positive reinforcement is the way to go to get the best results and to form a fun and trusting relationship. I am active and would love to take your high energy dogs out for a long run or hike in the area. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full-time, primarily from home. I have time to take walks any time through out the day and currently take my own dog on 2-3 walks a day, with a hike every other day. I have a very friendly dog who loves to play and relax. I take him on hikes and walks daily. I also have a dog-savvy cat.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for several years for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m happy to complete walks, administer medications, clean litter boxes, and give your babies any specific attention that you require I’m currently about to start the school year, so I am available on weekends, evenings, or early mornings. Depending on the time of year, I may have more availability. Let’s discuss what works best for your needs! I prefer to complete drop-in services as needed due to having fur babies that are very structured in their own routines. Contact me and we can discuss logistics!

About: I love caring for animals - both my own and for others! I have sat dogs for friends on deployment, taken care of mixed pet households (including cats and dogs), cared for senior and disabled dogs, and have experience caring for a wide range of non-traditional pets as well. I'm currently a stay-at-home dad to a wonderful daughter, and my partner works from home, so I have flexibility in my daily and weekly schedules. I understand that different pets need different care and support. Have a super energetic dog? I love playing fetch and going on long walks. Have a kitty that needs silence and space? I'm happy to provide quiet company and respect their boundaries. I'm attentive, consistent, detail-oriented, and responsive. I take caring for your animals as seriously as my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 411 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Whitener. 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 Whitener. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
