“Kat took care of my cat for 10 days and was wonderful. She was reliable, communicated consistently with updates, and she clearly took great care of him. Most importantly, he warmed up to her quickly, which give me peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend.”

“Julie provided excellent care for our two Sphynx cats and bearded dragon while we were out of the country visiting family. Finding someone willing and able to care for a bearded dragon can be difficult, but Julie immediately put us at ease with her attention to detail, reliability, and fantastic communication. We always felt informed and confident that our pets were receiving great care. She truly went above and beyond, even taking the time to water our small garden while we were away. We returned home to happy pets and a well-cared-for home, and we would gladly book Julie again for future pet-sitting needs!”

“Kelly stayed at my house with my cat for 10 nights, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Super proactive in communication, sent pics and updates daily, left the house in great shape (I really couldn't tell anyone had been here!) and was flexible in the end when my travel plans changed due to weather. Oh, and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed hanging out with my cat, which makes it all the better. Hope to be able to hire her for future needs!”

About: I’ve pet sat my friends animals, and they’ve had so many! Senior dogs that have accidents and have behavioral issues. Exotic pets, of many kids. Every morning, I fill the cat and water bowl in my room, weekly I clean the bowls. For my dogs, whenever my parents don’t feed them cause they are out, I feed them and fill their water. I brush their coats, and try to give them baths every few weeks or so! However the pet parents would like, but I care for what is best for their health. I understand each pet is different and needs different things. I can bathe the animals depending on behavior, my right leg doesn't haven't as much feeling since surgery and cant handle a lot of big pressure.

About: My name is Robb and I’m a Little Person who’s recently graduated California Vocational College and discovered a greater passion for pets of all sorts. I’ve had plenty of my own across different species in the past. Currently I I on 2 cats (boys) Tank and Sully. Recently I decided I’d begin by volunteering at my local animal shelter to accompany the animals in need. This is where I’d like to say that I hope I have encouraged you to reach out to me, Robb, to sit and walk to precious pets while you’re busy doing what you do. It’d be my pleasure. Thank you Pet care is something I’m happy to make a priority in my daily routine. I can plan my schedule around visits to ensure cats receive their meals on time, fresh water, clean litter boxes, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs, and I understand the importance of keeping their routine consistent while their owners are away. I’ll always do my best to provide loving, reliable care and keep you updated with messages and photos. I provide loving, attentive care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I respect each cat’s unique personality and needs, whether they enjoy cuddles and play or prefer a little space. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their furry friends are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I have always had a deep love for animals, and caring for them has been a natural part of my life. From energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets, who need more patience and comfort, I truly enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality. I currently own 3 big dogs, each with their own unique needs - they are such a joy to take care of each day. Whether your pet likes long walks, endless fetch and playtime, or quiet companionship, I am more than happy to meet them where they're most comfortable. 🐾 For the summer months, my availability is wide open! Weekdays and weekends as needed. As a middle school teacher, I provide care and compassion no matter the day. During the "back to school season" - I will still prioritize the care needed regardless, and will make scheduling work to the best of my ability! I have a big fenced in yard for my three dogs at home. For drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins, I provide the absolute best care given the environment (Fresh water, food, and playtime always). With NC heat, I make sure to prioritize pet health and wellness alongside their happiness. Each animal is unique and I make sure to take all factors and needs into consideration with each visit! ❤️

Winter was so kind to my kitty and I think he really enjoyed her presence! I felt happy he was taken well care of in my time away! She was also very prompt in responding and figuring out a time to meet beforehand which I greatly appreciated.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Willow Ridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Willow Ridge is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $19 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 2,296 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Willow Ridge. 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 Willow Ridge. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
