The one cat I have left doesn't care who's around, but his former co-ruler would sometimes leave if I walked in the room, even if she were using the covered box.  If nothing else, she would make some sort of disapproving face at me - or so it seemed.

our cats have covered boxes. they climb in, turn around, stick their heads out of the opening and squint. They don't care if you're there or not.
