“Katie was great! She took care of our three cats while we were out of town for a week. As a first timer I was nervous but Katie sent great updates and I loved getting so many pictures each day. Made me feel better and know the cats were being taken care of. Would absolutely hire again.”
“2nd time with Dori caring for our dog. It is so refreshing to have such a reliable and effective person check-in for us. We sleep better knowing we can count on her. Thanks Dori!!”
“Amanda did AMAZING with my dog, Willow!! She is the ideal pet sitter! Her communication was great and she sent me lots of updates and photos! Willow looked so happy and loved in every photo, and she truly took care of her as if she was her own dog! I can’t recommend Amanda enough! 10000/10 experience!”
About: I have had pets my entire life and have been a pet parent since 1995. I've had the privilege of having both dogs and cats in our home. And I have also previously pet sat for birds and the occassional pot-bellied pig. I have previously given both cats and dogs oral meds (both liquid and pill form), injectable meds and subcutaneous fluids when needed. With our family pets I have experienced puppy & kittenhood all the way through the elder years. So I am well versed on the needs for each individual age. I do work, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me time during the day and night to take care of your furry kiddos. Whether that entails walks, pop in visits or overnight stays... my goal is to help your fur babies stay happy and calm while you are away. At this point I only offer sitting in your home as my two kitty kiddos tend to be skittish with new faces human or animal. I would never want to stress them out and/or add any stress to your pets.
“Missy was absolutely AMAZING!! She went above and beyond simply making sure the litter was clean and they had food and water. She was so good to them, cleaned up after them, even brought in my deliveries. I can't say enough good things about her. I highly, HIGHLY recommend Missy.”
“Jennifer always provides excellent care for our kitty. We appreciate the time she spends with him—playing, giving pets and of course Bilbo’s favorite—treats and canned food. Highly recommend Jennifer!”
“She was wonderful! She took such great care of my pets and kept me updated with sweet photos. I came home to happy, relaxed pets—I’ll definitely book again!”
“So pleased. Came back to find my dogs happier than ever to see me, but they were calm and relaxed. I will use Dawn again. What a good feeling to have a caring person watch your pets in their own home. Loved the picture updates!”
About: Hi! I'm Kernix — a military spouse, dog lover, and proud chocolate Lab mom to Josie! I know how important it is to find a safe, loving, and stress-free place for your pup while you're away. My goal is to provide a true "home away from home" experience with lots of attention, structure, and affection. I grew up around animals and have always loved caring for them. Growing up, we had pugs, chihuahuas, bunnies, and hamsters, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. We moved to South Carolina in October 2025 after previously being stationed in Washington. My husband is originally from Myrtle Beach, SC, and we've loved settling into the Summerville community and making it feel like home. 1 Family at a Time for Boarding: I only accept one client family at a time for overnight boarding, so your pup will receive personalized care without the stress of a crowded boarding environment. About Our Home & Routine: We live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with a fully fenced backyard where pups can safely play, sniff, and explore. Dogs enjoy regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, enrichment activities, belly rubs, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I also closely follow feeding routines and medication schedules when needed. Meet Josie: We also have our sweet chocolate Lab,Josie! She is extremely friendly and social and has done wonderfully with every person, dog, and cat she has met so far. Josie enjoys meeting friendly dogs and would love a playmate during your pup's stay. Meet & Greets & Communication: I highly encourage meet & greets before boarding, especially for first-time stays. I want both you and your pup to feel comfortable and confident before booking. Communication is very important to me, and I always do my best to stay flexible with drop-off and pick-up times whenever possible. Boarding & Doggy daycare: Doggy day care pickup is by 5 PM. If pickup is needed after 5 PM, please book boarding instead so I can properly accommodate your pup's evening and overnight care routine. Boarding Requirements: To help keep everyone safe and comfortable, I currently only accept: • Dogs that are reasonably potty trained • Friendly dogs that do well around people and other dogs • Dogs that are up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention Because I provide care in my personal home, I may not be the best fit for dogs with severe separation anxiety, destructive behaviors, or frequent indoor accidents.
“Chelsea did a great job with our cats. Arrived home to a clean and tidy kitchen and litter boxes. She is a good communicator and we enjoyed the pictures she sent. We recommend her as a terrific sitter!”
“Megan was absolutely amazing with our picky 15 yr old and our energetic 5 yr old pups!! She sent great pictures and communicated everything during!! She eased our minds so much while we were away, knowing she was taking such great care of them. We came back to very relaxed, happy pups so I know they were very well loved on!! Can’t say enough about how great Megan was. Will definitely use her again every time!!!”
“Sadie was awesome and took great care of my boys while I was away. Great communication and letting me know how they were doing. Would highly recommend and will definitely request her care again!”
“Much appreciated! Two weeks in and I get a pic of my 180lb pup cuddled with Rebecca on the couch. Much less stress leaving him knowing that I have someone that can care for him just as I do.”
About: I have a 2-year-old Great Dane and a senior dog at home, I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes! With my experience at home, and 6 years as a behavior therapist, I have niche skills that allow me to give the best care to your pets. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I start my mornings with walks and playtime for my own dogs. I am comfortable adjusting my schedule to meet the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means walks, feeding, play, medicine, or snuggle time. I provide attentive and loving care to each pet and home encountered. I keep my own dogs on a strict schedule, and am very dedicated to doing the same with your pets! I am organized and pride myself in my attention to detail, gentleness, and care for pets and their environments.
About: Hi! I’m an avid animal lover with a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, along with birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, chipmunks, and even goldfish. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s truly who I am. I understand that our fur babies are special souls and cherished members of the family. When your beloved pet is in my care, they’ll be treated with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. It would be an absolute honor to provide a safe, happy, and comforting experience for your baby while you’re away. My days start early — which means I have plenty of availability during the day, evenings, and on weekends. I love having that balance in my day, especially when it comes to spending time with animals. At home, life revolves around my two dogs — a standard poodle and a terrier mix — along with my two rescue cats, all adopted from different rescues. Caring for them is part of my daily routine, from morning feedings and walks to evening playtime and snuggles. My home is calm, loving, and pet-centered, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, happy environment where animals feel comfortable and cared for. 🐾 When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know how important consistency is, so I will follow your instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walk times to medications, play preferences, and bedtime routines. I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. Whether that means long walks, backyard playtime, enrichment activities, or quiet cuddle time, I adjust to your pet’s personality and energy level. I’m also respectful of your home. I’ll keep things tidy, provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind, and ensure your pet feels safe, secure, and cared for in their own familiar environment. Your baby will be treated like family every step of the way.

Jennifer is awesome! Her visits are extremely thorough and she is very diligent about making sure everything is taken care of while also making my pet feel comfortable and taken care of. I love how many photos she takes every time she visits and her daily visit journals are always super detailed. I cannot recommend her enough!
Katie was very reliable and consistent. Provided great updates and photos so I never wondered how our kitty was doing while we were gone. She was very kind and caring and our super shy kitty warmed up to her quickly which is very impressive on its own. We will absolutely book with Katie again and won’t hesitate to recommend her to others.
My pet sitter was absolutely wonderful. She was incredibly loving with my cats, left my home spotless, and kept great communication the entire time. She sent me plenty of photos, and she took the time to play with my kitties and give them lots of affection, which made me feel very at ease while I was away. I would 100% recommend her, and I’d love for her to take care of my kitties again in the future. Thank you so much! 🐾💛

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Wide Awake on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 1,242 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Wide Awake. 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 Wide Awake. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
