“We absolutely love Shannon! This was our second time having her watch our fur babies, and she was fantastic once again! She sent us fun, thoughtful updates and adorable photos after every visit, which made being away from home so much easier. She made sure both of our cats got plenty of love and attention, and she even managed to handle our more challenging kitty like a pro! It’s such a relief knowing our babies are in great hands while we’re away. We couldn’t recommend Shannon enough and will absolutely continue booking with her. Thank you, Shannon, for taking such great care of our little crew!”
About: I've taken care of cats/dogs/guinea pigs of my own over the years since I was young. Friends trust me to watch their fur babies. I'm currently available anytime to care for your fur babies. I've been an Executive for 21 years with an advanced degree and am taking a break from the workforce to reset, raise my daughter, and breathe. I will happily take care of your fur babies in their domain that they know. I will also offer cleaning, laundry, dish washing services or organization services if desired. I will keep your home tidy.
“Maja is the best! We left our kitties in her care for 9 days. We’ve never left them for more than 3 so we were a little nervous about how they would do. Her detailed notes and updates were very reassuring and she captures the cutest pics! Thank you Maja, from our kitties and us <3”
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals, which taught me how to read their body language and understand their needs from a young age. On top of that, I bring six years of professional dog grooming experience to my pet sitting. This means your pet isn't just getting a companion—they are staying with a professional who knows how to handle coat care, spot skin issues early, and keep anxious dogs calm and comfortable. Our daily routine starts in the morning with a quick potty break, followed by individual feedings so everyone can eat safely and at their own pace. Afterward, we head out for our morning walk or yard play while energy is high, followed by a quiet midday nap/relaxation to let food safely digest. Throughout the afternoon, your dog will get another bathroom break, a professional coat brush-out to check skin health, and some mental enrichment like puzzle toys or lick mats. As we transition into the evening, we serve dinner according to your exact instructions and burn off any remaining energy with a fun sunset play session. Finally, at night, we wind down with plenty of couch cuddles in a true home environment before a final potty break and a peaceful, secure lights-out. Every pet in my care receives individualized attention focused on their physical safety and emotional well-being. I design a calm, low-stress environment where your pet can relax, ensuring their unique routines are strictly followed to prevent anxiety. By carefully reading their body language, I respect their personal boundaries and use gentle, patient interaction to build genuine trust at their own pace. Safety is always my top priority, which means I maintain secure environments, supervise all activities, and use my professional handling skills to keep every situation controlled and peaceful. Your pet will never be rushed or forced into interaction, giving them the secure, comfortable home-away-from-home experience they deserve.
“Morgan (Cali) had made drop in visits at our house for the last three times we have been out of town. I feel so much more confident leaving knowing she is coming to check on Hank and she does a great job. I would highly recommend!!!”
“We can't say enough wonderful things about Miranda and the exceptional care she provided for both our home and our senior cat. From the very start, her professionalism, warmth, and dedication were apparent. Miranda kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos, giving us total peace of mind while we were away. Beyond her attentive care, she left our home in immaculate condition. We wholeheartedly recommend Miranda to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and reliable house and pet sitter. She exceeded all expectations, and we will absolutely be reaching out to her for future stays!”
About: I’ve loved animals since I was a baby, especially growing up around dogs and cats. I’ve got cats of my own and plenty of experience around dogs from volunteering at shelters to going to friends houses just to visit their dog. I want to help make sure your pet feels happy and safe even when their parents are away! Your pet will be part of my daily routine with meals, treats, playtime, and cuddles. I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. I follow their usual routines including feeding, walks, playtime, and exercise. I make sure they are comfortable, safe, and feel as though nothing has changed in their environment.
About: I have taken care of animals all my life, from cats to dogs. I have helped take care of my dogs at home by feeding them, bathing them, cleaning up after them, and administering their medicine. I am a graduate student here and hope to help out on weekends. My schedule can be busy, but I am willing to work around my schedule to best suit you and your pet! I would ensure that it is a safe environment, where dangers such as glass shattering or heavy objects are moved to safe places. I also want to ensure they feel comfortable, so taking the time for the animal to get to know me is important.
About: I have grown up my entire life around pets and animals of all varieties. Dogs, cats, Parakeets, and even hamsters. I have learned and grown to love and care for animals because I view them as family, not just pets. I have walked dogs and have house sat for many years and am considered experienced with most forms of care and service to pets such as dogs and cats I work a full time job as a social studies educator where I teach seventh grade through 12th grade world, history and government classes. Teaching is my absolute passion and I love working with kids of all ages To help guide them towards helping them become better versions of themselves every single day! Teaching may be my passion, but I love working with animals on the side when I have spare time. I am free on weekends, most evenings, and free almost the entire summer. I am easily and readily available for evenings and even summers to take care of your furry friends while you may be away for longer periods of time! I currently live in a single bedroom apartment with only one furry firmed if my own. He is a 6 year old American Short-Hair who is the sweetest of kitties and my entire world. I adopted him when he was just a month old and he has been with me his whole life. My apartment is located next to nearby parks and grassy areas for walks and exercise. My apartment is also smoke-free and is in a pet-friendly neighborhood with quiet streets and friendly neighbors.
“Kyla is so contentious - she kept me posted when her schedule altered from our requested times. I appreciate her great communication. I will certainly use her again in the future.”
“Raelyn was an amazing cat sitter! She did everything we asked and took such great care of our cats. She went above and beyond by bringing packages that were delivered to the house, which we truly appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our home and cats were in such good hands. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her!”
“We are new to the area, but have used Rover before. I saw Kari and Clint’s profile and instantly felt comfortable with our pet care. Due to weather delays, we were a day late- Kari had great communication and was able to help us out. I would highly recommend them for your pet needs!”
About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).

Tess did a fantastic job taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. One of our cats has diabetes and she did great administering his insulin. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures that we very much looked forward to. There were a few things that came up at the house that I needed help with, and she went above and beyond to help out. I was able to relax knowing my kiddos were in great hands. Will 110% book with Tess again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,248 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Young. 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 .

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.
