“We knew right away that Andrew would be the perfect pet sitter for our pups, Lynyrd Skynyrd and David Bowie. The boys bonded with him immediately which made my "mama heart" soar. We went to New Orleans for a trip and Andrew stepped in and provided the BEST care. The photos he sent captured the boys in true happiness and total contentment. We are going to NYC soon and Andrew will keep them again. Do the right thing and obtain Andrew's services for your puppers; they will have a blast and you will have total peace of mind.”

“Madison was awesome! She was flexible with our introductory visit and the care schedule and accommodated our every need. Madi always sent detailed visit information each and every time, including cute pictures and lots of cuddles. My pups were immediately at ease with Madi as soon as she first met them, you can tell she really loves pets and I was very at ease and confident in her care. She was always on time and followed their care perfectly by memory (because I forgot to leave instructions!), down to giving them their daily medication. I would recommend Madison and will definitely book her again!”

About: I dog sat for five years before I adopted my senior dog six years ago. I make his dog food, take him on special walks. I love him so much but he is slowing down. I would love to use my extra energy helping your dog and loving on them. I own my own hand embroidery business and have a very flexible schedule. I would love to fit in more outdoor walks in my routine. My dog is slowing I have experience walking my dog and other dogs in different types of environments. I also know that dogs need mental stimulation, not just physical exercise. I would be honored to love on your pet for you!
About: Hello, my name is Madison and I am a film student at Cape fear in Wilmington. I grew up on a farm in Ohio, and have had more pets and critters than I can even count in my life. As I’ve gotten older, my husband and I are very passionate about caring for older and special needs animals along with untraditional pets, such as rabbits, snakes, rats, etc. I provide all services from drop-in feedings walking to overnight stays. I am completely available Friday through Sunday. I only have one class Mondays and Tuesdays. And I’m at the Cape fear community college the majority of the day Wednesday and Thursday. I am, however, open to flexible scheduling and making sure all needs are accommodated for your pets. Both my cat and my dog are some of the most incredibly spoiled animals that you could ever meet. Not only does our senior rescue pitbull get two full walks a day, her partner in crime are kitten, who is less than a year old both have lavish treats, and I have more comfortable sleeping quarters than the humans in the house
About: I've had pet dogs my entire life. My parents have me watch their dogs every time they go on vacation. I'm comfortable being around any dog, big or small. I'm currently applying to secondary employment while I transition into more hours at my current job. My availability changes weekly but I am generally flexible based on your needs. Comfortable taking your pet for leashed walks around the neighborhood as I walk my own dogs quite often. Also comfortable going to local parks at your discretion.

This was our 2nd time hiring Amanda to watch our 2 cats and she will continue to be our #1 choice. This was the first time we've ever left the cats for two full weeks and it was so reassuring to know she was looking in on them. Great communication, super reliable, and overall highly recommended.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Wilmington on Rover is $18.87 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 606 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Wilmington. 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.

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.
