“Melanie was so fantastic to our two cats! We have one shy girl and she actually came out and played with Melanie! We were expecting for her to never see our Lulu. She gave such great updates and sent so many pictures that really eased my anxiety about leaving them. Will definitely request her again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was around 10 years old, and cats aince I was 15. I have trained, bathed, walked, and simply adored dogs for all these years! I worked with a certified trainer to train my Lucy in obedience and service tasks. I have experience taking care of puppies, seniors dogs, senior cats, and kittens. I have nursed and fostered kittens as young as three weeks to get them out of barn dumps and into loving homes. My youngest cat, Courage, is my first ever foster fail! I am not shied away by medications either, as I have plenty of experience with administering them to both cats and dogs. I currently work full-time as a special education teacher. I am available on weekdays after 4:30pm, and I'm very open on weekends. I can also accept longer bookings on weekdays that fall under school breaks! I take pet parent concerns to heart, and I follow written directions down to the letter! I am very attentive to detail and strive to make each experience a positive one. I will ensure I am doing everything possible to keep pets safe and happy in my clients' homes. I can clean up toys as needed, fill water bowls, and scoop litter boxes to maintain a neat environment.

About: I’m the one at the party in the corner with the pets. I truly adore animals and want to provide the kind of care I’d expect for my own. I have over a decade of experience caring for animals, and I am a proud pet parent to two dogs and a cat. My dog Macy is in her golden years and my other dog, Louie, deals with a chronic illness, so I understand the extra level of care pets with special needs require and don’t shy away from the work it takes to keep them healthy and comfortable. You can relax while you’re away knowing your pet will be cared for. :) I have a full-time job, but have flexibility when I work from home three days a week. If I’m working from home or it’s the weekend, I can drop in in the mornings, over lunch and in the evenings. If I am in the office I’ll stop over before work and then after in the evening. I will walk, feed, water, pet, and play with your pet! I’m also experienced with giving medication and have no problem helping keep your pets on a schedule.

“Amanda did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Buck, while we were out of town! This was our first time using a pet sitter, and she made the entire experience so easy. She was wonderful with Buck and gave him exactly the attention and space he needed to feel comfortable. She kept us updated throughout our trip and gave us so much peace of mind knowing Buck was happy and safe at home. It means a lot to find someone we can trust with our boy, and we will absolutely be using Amanda again for future trips. I highly recommend her! ❤️🐾”

About: I previously owned a dog walking and pet-sitting business for over four years, and I absolutely loved it! I walked dogs that ranged from 1-16 years of age, and administered oral medication and provided insulin to diabetic dogs. I have also fostered dogs four separate times, ages ranging from 1-6 years. I have 4 years of exotic animal care experience as well! I work from home full time on a very flexible schedule. I can move my daily plans around to fit your needs, and will update my availability to include changes ASAP. There is one other dog and two friendly cats in the home. My partner is experienced in animal husbandry and loves pets just as much as me. We are sure to give them plenty of love, patience, and attention! I can take furry friends on extra walks if requested, and I can send you pictures throughout your pets' stay!

We were comfortable with Travis from the first meet and greet. We booked on short notice to leave for a funeral and Travis offered to work around what he already had and still be within our time frames to take care of our four cats. He left detailed notes on each visit as well as anywhere from 4 to 7 pictures of all the cats. He was also able to give an injection morning and night to our senior cat that he had never done before, but after a brief lesson when we met him, he was able to take care of that easily. We would not hesitate to book Travis again anytime that we needed to leave town and have our cats taken care of

Sahara was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our cats, Cleo and Calvin, while we were away for a weekend trip. She spent 30–40 minutes each visit playing with them, feeding them, and making sure they were comfortable and happy. We really appreciated the photo updates — seeing Cleo and Calvin totally put our minds at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend Sahara, and we would definitely book with her again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Zimmer

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Zimmer is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 429 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Zimmer. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Zimmer. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% 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 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.
