“Liz is an amazing sitter! She looked after my cat while I was on vacation and did an excellent job! My cat usually takes a long while to feel comfortable with new people, but within only a couple visits she quickly opened up to Liz! Liz was very attentive in following care instructions. She provided detailed updates and photos for each visit. Highly recommend her services!”

“I had an amazing experience with Gianna and Louann, and I highly recommend this lovely duo. They took my kitty in from the emergency care clinic on short notice and provided exceptional care to help her recover during the holiday season. Throughout the process, they kept me well-informed with frequent updates, including photos and messages, ensuring I was always in the loop about Frankie's health and ongoing recovery. I feel incredibly fortunate that they could take her in and respond so quickly, especially given that I was out of the country and needed to make arrangements urgently. Now, I am reunited with my Frankie and she's happy and healthy.”

About: Nothing really sets me apart. I believe every sitter on here should be Attentive, Caring, Knowledgeable, and Reliable. I am those things as well. Oh. I forgot. I'm a photographer so if you want nice pictures of your pet, I can make that happen. I work part time at the moment 3 days a week. From 6am - 10am. Therefor I have more than enough time to fit in bookings and spend time with your furry friends. I will follow whatever instructions you leave for me no matter how specific. The way you care for your animals and the routines they have are important. I will treat it as such.

“Samantha has been amazing. From our initial meet and greet to multiple visits with my kitten, she has been thoroughly communicative, polite, and professional. She has great attention to detail and went above and beyond in providing updates. She even put the cat food away neater than I had left it for her. As a first time pet parent, I felt very comforted that my cat was in kind and safe hands. Beyond feeding, I mainly wanted a companion for my kitten as she is young, and Samantha played with all her favorite toys with her. I’d trust her with anyone’s pet, and I can’t wait to use her services again. Thank you Samantha!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have grown up around cats, which has given me a strong understanding of their behavior and needs. I currently have two cats of my own, my babies, who are everything to me. While I don’t have formal pet sitting experience, I’m very comfortable around animals. I regularly spend time with my boyfriend’s family dog and my best friend’s dog, so I’m used to being around different personalities and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Caring for pets is already part of my everyday life. I currently have two cats of my own, so feeding, cleaning, playing, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable is a daily routine for me. I’ve also helped care for my family cat in the past, so I’m very familiar with being attentive to different personalities and needs. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I care for my cats as part of my everyday life and make sure they have a safe, happy home environment. I don’t let my cats outside, but I do open windows with proper protection so they can safely enjoy fresh air. They have plenty of toys, a cat tree, high-quality food, and treats. I really focus on giving them comfort, enrichment, and freedom indoors so they can relax and live a happy, stress-free life.

About: Hi, I'm D'Mitri - bookish plant dad and Legal Analyst seeking to foray into pet care as a fun and enriching side gig. I'm originally from New Mexico, where I grew up on four acres with a horse and three dogs. Since then, I have pet sat occasionally for friends and family but would love for it to be a larger part of my life. My partner adopted a sweet Cur, Auggie, (40lb) last summer who lives with us FT. He is mild-mannered, adores other dogs and receives regular socialization at both daycare 2x/wk and daily at the on-site fenced dog park and many green spaces on the premises. My preference is for small to medium sized dogs but do have the stature and experience to manage larger breeds as well. All ages welcome! We live in Dorchester (Columbia Point) with my boyfriend of nine years in a complex along on the Harbor Walk. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you! I WFH and the nature is my work is largely project-based, which affords me a lot of flexibility. On the average day, I wake at 6 and am in bed by 10:30. My partner and I live in a standard 1BR but our apartment complex is unique for the abundance of green space it offers - and even a dog park. Just right outside our front door is a huge lawn where others can often be spotted exercising their pets. I am also open to caring for your pets in the comfort of your own home! Rest assured that they will be cared for to your exact specifications and with lots of love.

I have a car and am happy to travel to you within a reasonable distance. Happy to come to you and care for your pet in your home. Meet and greets are always welcome and preferred. I want to make sure that it’s a good fit for both myself and your pet

About: Animal lover and dog auntie looking to provide some weekday playtime and interaction to your fur babies!

I am currently working part time in the evening a few days a week, and free and available morning and mid day during week days I have a 1st floor 1 bedroom apartment on a quiet road with an unfenced backyard and walking distance from parks and paved and unpaved trails.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Winthrop

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Winthrop is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $34 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 4,705 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Winthrop. 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 Winthrop. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
