“Just needed someone who could drop by to let out my pup while I’d be gone all day and Cassandra is a gem! Great communication and even though she was only with my dog for a quick potty break she provided many photos of their adventure.”
“On time and professional for our meet and greet. Eggnog immediately was himself with her, and she handled it well. I’m a helicopter pet parent and I’m confident I have found the right sitter for my Eggnog.”
“Zulaiha was excellent! My cats love her, and she took really great care of them. I was actually stressed because this was the first time I was away from them, but she made sure they were all good and they had everything they needed. I'll definitely want her to take care of my cats if I'm ever away on a trip again because I know they'll be in great in hands.”
About: I worked as a vet tech for 6 years and dog grooming for 4 years. Ive had dogs my whole life. I can't wait to meet your family member! I love walking and what's better than walking? Walking with a loving friend of the family. I will drop everything for a dog in need. I always make sure to keep open communication with the owners and other family members. Also I love sending little photos or videos of us :)
“Elaine was AMAZING! My cat is super shy, but she was persistent and got him to come out of his hiding place. She was super communicative so that I knew exactly how everything was going. Would strongly recommend her for your cat sitting needs.”
“Donny was friendly, professional, and thoughtful. You can tell Donny really cares about your pet(s) and he provided me frequent and thorough updates on my dog, Possum, every check-in. She was very happy and well taken care of by Donny. I highly recommend booking Donny via Rover and will be inquiring with him again the next time I'm out of town.”
About: I'll take care of your pet. As far as experience goes, I've taken care of all kinds of pets from fish to rabbit to cat or dog. I have lots of experience walking dogs for volunteer work. And I volunteer with a local Pet Adoption Agency by feeding, clean litter, playing, walking, and administering medication. I love all animals from small to large. Whether you have an active pup to a senior cat, I will provide a safe, comforting and happy experience. Pet care fits into my life because I have pets and have volunteered to take care of pets. I will take care of your pets as well as you do. I have owned pets since a very young age and can take care of almost any pet. You have your pet in good hands. I can walk, feed, play with your pet so they are never lonely and have a good playmate.
“This was my first time using Rover, and it was hands down the BEST experience I could have asked for, especially with Chris caring for my dog & cat! 🐾 Chris has incredible communication skills and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me so much peace of mind :) He is also extremely punctual and reliable, especially when it comes to feeding and walking schedules, which meant everything to me & more. The level of love and care he showed my animals was truly top notch. He followed every instruction perfectly and still found ways to go above and beyond in so many thoughtful ways. For the first time in a very long time, I was actually able to relax and disconnect from “pet mom mode” because I knew my animals were being cared for exactly how I would care for them, if not even better. I also loved the pictures Chris sent, you could genuinely see how much fun my pets were having with him, and somehow he even got my cat to come out and play, which says everything. If you’re thinking about booking with Chris, do it!!! You’ll thank me later & your pets will gain a new best friend 🐾”
“Perla was absolutely wonderful with my Olive. She dedicated so much love and time with my little old lady, I felt completely at ease vs my usual anxiousness. She has found her calling, the love she provided and her communication skills give one peace of mind! Thank you Perla.”
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Pearl to take care of my cat Maia while I was away, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, I could tell that she was a true animal lover. Her professionalism and genuine care for my fur baby were evident throughout her entire stay. One of the standout aspects of Pearl’s service was her proactive communication. During my first booking, she sent me daily updates and photos of my cat, which was incredibly reassuring. It was wonderful to see my shy cat starting to warm up to her, a testament to Pearl’s gentle and patient approach. During this most recent booking, Pearl helped coordinate with my house sitter to make sure Maia was fed and well loved when I was away. Normally, Maia is very reserved around new people, but she seemed comfortable and even happy in the photos I received. Moreover, Pearl was very respectful of my home. She left everything in perfect condition, just as I had left it. It's clear that she takes her responsibilities seriously and goes above and beyond to ensure both pets and owners are satisfied. I highly recommend Pearl to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. Her dedication and love for animals shine through in her work, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Pearl, for taking such wonderful care of Miss Maia!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was basically a kid, and yes — your dog will become obsessed with me. I’m reliable, patient, and great with pets who need extra attention, belly rubs, or a hype-woman on walks.

I only do in-home care, so your pet gets to stay in their own comfy space. I’m hypervigilant, gentle, and big on routines—I keep doors secure, follow instructions, and treat your home and pet with respect.

“Third time booking Shiela for drop-ins with Taekkie & Zoey! She is punctual and does a lot for the time allotted; also documents everything well and takes lots of pictures for updates. If anything comes up, she communicates right away. Overall, highly recommended. :)”
About: Hi, I’m Zionya and I absolutely love animals!! I lived on a farm for a few years and really enjoyed caring for our lovely farm animals.

“She did a wonderful job making sure my cats were comfortable, happy, and fed every day while I was away for a week. She communicated well and was attentive to all the needs of my special-needs cat and my kittens. I felt confident knowing they were in caring and capable hands!”
“Have been using him for dog sitting for months now and have now also had him drop in to say hi to our bird and cat. Always very pleased with his care! My dog is older and has special needs, in addition to pretty bad separation anxiety. My dog doesn't put up much of a fuss going to his house, which is a testament to how much he likes Armando, his wife, and Buddah! He was also very accomodating with the drop in visit- we had set up the TV to play while we were gone and it messed up, but he was willing to follow the instructions we sent to fix it so that the animals can have entertainment again! Very thankful to have found such a caring and quality sitter.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs ever since I was a kid. I’ve had my family dog that I mainly took care of growing up and one of my own now that I’ve had for the last 6 years, if you hire me your satisfaction is guaranteed! I currently work part time at a gym with pretty flexible scheduling so I have plenty of time to check in on your pup when needed. I have my own house with a big front yard and a big fenced back yard for dogs to run around as much as they want.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Wilmington
She did a wonderful job making sure my cats were comfortable, happy, and fed every day while I was away for a week. She communicated well and was attentive to all the needs of my special-needs cat and my kittens. I felt confident knowing they were in caring and capable hands!
Amy was an excellent sitter. My cats warmed up to her quickly and were comforted by her presence. I appreciated the many entertaining pictures in the Rover cards during each check-in. She followed all instructions (feeding schedules, litter checks, and cleaning). She understood the cats' needs beyond just food and litter box emptying and even cleaned extra at the end of the scheduled sitting. I truly appreciate her attention to detail and the care she showed for both my cats and my home. If she's still available the next time I need a cat sitter, I will likely call upon her services again.
Roselyn did a great job taking care of my kitten. She followed all instructions well and provided detailed check in notes with pictures. My kitten really likes her as he played with her during both check ins. She also played with him and made sure he had enough food and water before leaving.
Liana was a wonderful cat sitter! She stopped by every day to check on our cat, made sure she was well-fed and happy, and gave her plenty of attention. We came home to a calm and content cat. Always a great sign. Reliable, communicative, and caring. Highly recommend!
My cats immediately loved Olu. While they like company, there’s been very few people they want to run up to and give kisses and cuddles. I knew my cats had an excellent guardian, which made my trip even more relaxing. I loved getting kitty updates. I had a great time visiting with Olu and going over everything. She’s very thorough and caring and she does reiki on people and pets! One of my cats came from a very traumatic start in life. He’s let go of a lot of it but the reiki was such a benefit to both of them, especially him. I can see a big reduction in him bullying my other cat. They both seem more relaxed and happy after their sessions. Thank you for everything!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Wilmington on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Wilmington. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
