“Savannah was fantastic as our cat sitter. She responded quickly, showed genuine care for Hobbes and Bella, and stepped in last-minute without hesitation. I never worry when she’s watching our cats—they’re always well cared for and happy.”
“Alyssa was great! She was very communicative and had the animals best interest at heart! Even going above and beyond when she accidentally broke the cats bowl. I was not fussed but she made sure everything was cleaned up and safe! I felt very comfortable having her in my home and she was able to give my tentative cat that needs meds with no issue.”
“Avery was very attentive to my needs. I explained to her how much anxiety I had since previous pet sitters were not ideal. She reassured me through pictures and text messages on how my 2 cats were doing everytime she came to visit. Great communication, kind, and treated my cats like they were her own. Definitely will be rebooking! Thanks for everything!”
“Lisa did a great job with my cat, who unexpectedly developed health issues shortly before we left. She quickly agreed to visit very day instead of every other day and to give her medicine. She also provided informative updates so I could understand how my cat was doing.”
“Chelsea played with my kittens and kept their food bowls fresh, clean, washed. She followed feeding instructions and kept their litter box and box area clean. I trust her to sit my babies again.”
“Maggie was very responsive, communicated regularly and respectful of our home and time away. Our kitties weren’t cooperative, but Maggie made the best of it😊. We will book with her again when we go out of town.”
“Holli has been fantastic with our cats! She is very sweet and goes the extra mile. We have had the best experience with her and we will absolutely continue to book her in the future.”
About: I have been taking care of all kinds of animals from dogs and cats to birds and horses since I was a young girl. My neighbors have trusted me with pet care for years. I most recently have been working for a pet sitting company in North Carolina before moving to Virginia and received multiple five star reviews. I can assure you your pets will be well taken care of as I treat them as they are my own. I currently have a full time job with two to three full days off and lots of flexibility during the mornings and late evenings to stop in and do visits. I care for pets in my client’s home and I treat them as my own by making sure they get plenty of attention and playtime. I will take care of the animal’s needs like they are my pets keeping their health and safety my priority.
“Monica is the best, she’s the Rover momma that other Rover mommas pick for their fur babies! My fat cat adores her and does so much better when I travel if Monica comes by. He has made it very obvious that he is Monica’s biggest fan!”
“Alesscia took such great care of my babies and sent so many wonderful pictures. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the care, updates, photos, and love shown to Drifter and Moscow.”
“Sheryl was great with our dog and cat while we were away for the holidays. She was caring, attentive, and followed our instructions for medications to a T. I would definitely recommend to book with her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 728 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Yorktown. 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 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 Meet & Greet .

- 94% 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 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.
