“Kimberly is absolutely awesome!! She came by the day before she was contracted just to meet my dog and go over any special needs or requests. Kimberly is genuinely a kind, sweet, caring person. I feel so comfortable having her take care of my Lulu. Her communication is so good. Sent pictures as well as messages about her visit and what all Lulu did. My new favorite person for Lulu!!❤️❤️”
“Juliana was great! Sent me updates and pictures multiple times a day. Bunny was very comfortable with her and when I came home she was so relaxed. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Hannah was amazing and although one of our dogs gave her some issues, she handled the situation great. She was very communicative and our golden retriever loved her immediately. Would definitely recommend her services and use her again in the future!”
About: Everyone calls me when they need a reliable and dedicated pair of hands to watch over their children. Yes, I treat every dog like a furry child. I've helped raise dogs from 6 weeks to 16 years old. The young and the old need a little more attention and I'm happy to help. Those terrible 2's just need extra attention, and I'm happy to provide that too! I love all animals and will probably treat the kids like royalty. I prefer the company of dogs than my friends, they could vouch for that! I'm both loving and also stern because I've raised both labs and pitties. They require different types of parenting techniques, and I am equipped to handle anything. I work full time, and over time when it's available. I'm happy look after our friends around town. My availability will be based around my work and my, now, 4 kiddos at home. I can adjust weekly routines to incorporate pickup/drop offs, stop in visits, after work walks, or overnight stays. I treat dogs like they are our kids. I talk to them, I cuddle with them, and I use positive reinforcement to train good habits. I've helped raise a dozen dogs and each dog likes to show you how they like to be treated. I learned this lesson the hard way when I was raising dogs and had to learn different techniques to train each of them individually. Labs learn and function much different than bulldogs and pitbulls. I treat each dog the same regardless of size or attitude. Though I may give them some attitude when mouth off, like I do with my pitty at home (lol). I'm a safety first kind of person when it comes to our kids. So I tend to lean on the side of caution and extra equipment when interacting with most dogs. I always keep extra dogs supplies in my truck at all times as I have been known to that guy who stops traffic to try to rescue a dog. I've done this probably 6 or 7 times.
“Matt was fantastic! We had to extend our trip and he was flexible with us. Spent a good amount of time for drop in visits and sent photos of happy pups! Thank you Matt for taking care of our pups while we traveled. Will definitely rebook with Matt as needed.”
“Charissa came out to meet Mac and go over his routine with us, and is just a lovely person. She obviously enjoyed our giant beastie, and we are very happy to have her look after our boy when we have long hours away. Thanks so much!”
“Five stars aren't enough for Jen! Our kitty cat, Katie, absolutely adores her and Jen is 100% reliable and trustworthy. She plays with Katie and keeps her happy - and that shows in the pictures Jen sends us of Katie when we're out of town. Repeat customer here - you'll never go wrong booking Jen !”
“Mayahrissa is an excellent pet sitter. From our first meeting I could tell she really cares about animals and although I was a little nervous leaving my 3 month old puppy with a sitter for the first time, I immediately trusted Mayahrissa. During her visit, she followed all the care directions and sent me lots of pictures. My dog really likes her. She has a calm demeanor which puts pets at ease. I highly recommend her.”
“Megan was very professional and helpful with a last minute visit request. She took good care of our Thea (75 lbs) and sent pictures of their walk every visit she made.”
“Courtney was absolutely amazing with my new puppy and older dog! She is very responsive and attentive to their needs! Do not hesitate to book her services. Your pet will be in great hands!!”
About: I have eight years of experience caring for cats. I absolutely adore cats, and having had a cat of my own for almost 10 years now, I know how beloved and valued they are by the families I help. Throughout my years of cat sitting, I have cared for cats of all ages, administered medications, cleaned multiple litter boxes, and, of course, entertained with cat toys! Your need for pet care is never a burden. I take true joy in having the opportunity to meet and care for new furry friends! I currently work as a fitness specialist and personal trainer in medical fitness, so I have full availability on the weekends and my schedule with training clients largely allows me to check-in on pets throughout the day. I am unable to keep cats in my home; however, I am happy to travel to clients' homes and stay overnight to provide care. In my previous experiences cat sitting, I often check-in multiple times daily throughout my work day and stay in the home each night. I provide drop-in or house-sitting services.
“Melissa has made fast friends with my pets, and they love having her over for a visit. I'm so grateful to have someone as kind and professional as Melissa to take care of them.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and I have had a cat for the last 7 years. I am very good with animals and I love them very much. I have also babysat my own dogs when my parents go away as well as my aunts cats, and my neighbors dogs and cats. Since I've had many animals in my life, I know how to take care of them and I know how to tell what they need. I am in college but have many hours throughout the days that I am available and I am also free most nights (though I would need notice incase I make plans with friends) I am available all day on Mondays, available from 11-2 and after 5:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays and available all day besides 2-4 on Wednesdays and Fridays. I am also available all day on weekends I would just need to know in advance due to plans. I will offer your pet lots of love and will do whatever is best for your pet! I can easily crate your dog and I love long walks and would be happy to go on one with your pet.
“Lauren helped us out with a last minute request. She kept our 2 dogs happy and healthy while we were out of town. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her services in the future!”
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life, and I’ve had the pleasure of living with, and pet sitting for multiple cats and dogs. I’ve done both kitty and dog meds, so if you have a high maintenance fur child like me, I’ve got you covered!! If you trust me with your fur baby, I promise I will love them as much as I love my own!! I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility. Mornings are more difficult for me, but I can definitely work with you to find what’s best for the pets! My own pets are high maintenance, so I am definitely able to work with your pets needs. I crate my own dog, and give both my dog and cat meds and supplements. I don’t have any human children so my pets are my children. I will give your pet the love, attention, and care I give my own!!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Winchester
Kim was an absolute amazing caretaker for our three cats while we went on vacation! We loved the daily updates and photos she sent and I even think a few of our cats preferred hanging out with her over us! 😹 She went above and beyond even our highest hopes. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody looking for a kind and caring animal lover to watch over their fur babies.
Lauren was excellent! We initially did a meet and greet and I felt very comfortable with her. She ended up watching our cat for a week while we were away on vacation. She did a great job! She checked in with me every day and provided pictures and feedback. I will be using Lauren in the future anytime I need pet sitting.

As of September 2026, there are 388 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Winchester. 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 Winchester. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
