“Noila was great at taking care of our 2 cats! Very considerate about a few things that I had left out and asking questions about how to best take care of both them and our house. Very recommended.”
“Cierra was incredible. My cat has some gut issues and had some small accidents while I was away! Cierra was very communicative and helpful I would definitely recommend her”
“Gulnoza provided a warm and safe home for our cat while we were away for a few days on holiday. We were nervous since Mila is usually sensitive but we were given several videos and photos of her each day with recaps so we never missed her. We could see how much love and care she received while we were away. I would definitely recommend this family to care for a cat!”
“Abigail took fantastic care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated and sent pictures. She made my first time leaving my cat at home for multiple days a stress free experience. I will definitely use her services again. So lucky to have found her.”
“Yanira took amazing care of Ruthie! She can be shy with new people but came out for Yanira, great to get the daily photos! I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Emily is fantastic! She is so personable and a great communicator, taking lots of photos and updates for us of our cats. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Sarah was wonderful with my pup Penny! Penny is used to pretty much always being by my side, and she was (unexpectedly) scared when I wasn't there. Sarah and her son took the time to coax Penny out from the under the bed and made her comfortable for future stop ins. As a pet parent, I felt much better knowing that my dog was both happier and in great hands! A very positive experience!”
“Another great visit from Haowen! He always takes wonderful care of our cats while we're away. They're normally quite shy around strangers but he is always able to get them to come out and play.”
About: I've never owned a dog but I've been helping friends and family to take care of theirs. I'll make sure your pup stays healthy and entertained. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate same-day requests. I can pick up your per if necessary. Please don't hesitate to reach out for any questions. My one-bedroom apartment in a pet-friendly building is perfect for a short stay. There's a lovely pond nearby which is perfect for walks.
About: My experience with animals is 10+ years. I currently have six reptiles including a snake and I have a black lab named Raven and some bettas, too. Other experience includes veterinary internships with hands-on experience, I worked at a farm, I worked at a doggy daycare, and I have passed vet technology courses online. My business is called Mac’s Petcare through which I walk dogs and take care of pets. I really enjoy my career and I would love to work with cats too! I currently only work with dogs but am definitely open to caring for cats. I can do weekdays from around 2-5PM!! I also accept other requests. I walk dogs from 10 AM-2 PM currently, and I love it very much❤️ I try to make sure they feel safe at all times and I make sure they have a good time as well👍😊💜 I absolutely love working with the animals!!
About: I have been around animals since I was born. Something I learned from my father was that our animals weren't just some objects and that they were part of the family. I've had cats, dogs, and fish. I am also a quick learner and am able to adapt to whatever routine is needed to care for your animal the best. I am doing my masters at tufts university, but most of the weekdays I have big gaps in the middle of the day. During this time I can care for animals in whatever way needed. I have 6 cats and 1 dog in my family home where I currently commute from. I walk the dog usually once a day, i clean cat litter once a day, and feed all animals regularly.
About: Hi! I have grown up around dogs and cats since I was a kid. I had a mini Australian Shephard for 8 years. I have experience dog and house sitting for family and friends. This includes overnight stays, walks, feeding, playing, and administering medications when needed. I have had my cat Saylor for a year & half and live in a house with a total of 4 cats. I have volunteered at local animal shelters for years and spent a year volunteering at a local vet clinic. I have loved animals since I was a kid and am so excited at the chance of getting to care for your fur babies! I currently work full time but work from home on Monday's and Thursday's. I am available after 4:30pm through the week and have open availability on Saturday's and Sunday's. I can take dogs out on walks, check out the parks or hit the hiking trails. I have tons of cat toys at home that offer different kinds of stimulation and would be happy to play with your cat or kittens at home.
About: Cats and dogs have always been the fur babies of my family. I have a bunch of dog cousins and I've raised and cared for several cats in my life through all stages of life. I work 8 hr shifts (6:30 am-3pm or 1pm-9pm). Outside of work, typically would run errands, but if i could, i would be able to walk or pet sit. I have worked full time and pet sit in the past. It would be great to pet sit because I love pets, but don't have them here in the city. Because I don't have pets here, however I would be able to pet sit either at my place or the clients place. I have a safe one bedroom apartment so I would always be near the fur baby if I am hosting. There are no other pet that could potentially cause discomfort for the client pet. I love to cuddle and play with cats, but i can also be patient and wait for them to come to me. I also have skills to administer topical and oral medicine if necessary.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Winchester is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Winchester
Caitlin was wonderful with Latte! She was incredibly caring and patient, and I loved seeing Latte slowly grow to trust her even though she was initially very nervous. Caitlin's daily notes and photos gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She also went above and beyond by taking great care of my fish and plants. I’m so grateful for everything she did and would absolutely trust her with Latte again!
Katina has been a delight and everything I needed. I had knee surgery and needed help feeding my cat, Max, plus he needs insulin injections twice a day. All of that went well because he absolutely loved her. Anyone could feel comfortable knowing their pet is in very capable hands. I feel like we have a new family friend. Karen O'Sullivan
Jillian took such amazing care of my two cats while i was out of country. She was so attentive and caring. She picked up on the smallest things and my cats loved her. I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone needed a caring, and compassionate person to watch over your pets.

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 .

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.
