About: As the owner of four cats, I have daily hands-on experience providing consistent, attentive care to animals. Caring for multiple pets has taught me to be patient, reliable, and attentive to each animal's unique needs and personality. While my personal experience has been with cats, I'm comfortable caring for dogs by following their established routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and providing plenty of love and attention. I'll treat your dog with the same care and dedication I give my own pets! I'm currently a graduate student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I keep my availability up to date and do my best to accommodate your pet's routine, whether that's morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening visits. I believe consistency is important, so I'll always communicate clearly and provide dependable, attentive care while you're away. Your pet's comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. Since I'm entering their space, I believe it's important to let each pet take the lead. I take the time to build trust at their own pace and never force interactions or affection. Every pet has a unique personality, and I respect their individual needs and boundaries. I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), or simply providing companionship. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away by maintaining the consistency they're used to. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's care. That's why I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're happy, safe, and receiving the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own pets.
“Courtney is great! Reliable and loves dogs. Good communication throughout the process. Had to administer insulin 2x/day and antibiotics 2x/day and it was no problem. Made me feel comfortable going away knowing my pets would be well taken care of.”
“Elizabeth was able to accommodate me in a time of emergency. She was quick to respond and always gave pics for the visits. Penny can be shy, but warmed up to Elizabeth right way. I really appreciate Penny had such great care.”
“Lara did a couple of drop ins for me yesterday, and did a great job. She shared pics of them on walks exploring the neighborhood and of her giving Frankie her treats. I am so grateful that I found her!!”
About: Hey there! 🐾 I've been surrounded by pets all my life, so caring for furry friends comes naturally to me. When I'm not at the elementary school where I work, you can find me enjoying the outdoors, often with a canine companion by my side. I'm excited to meet your pets and provide them with the love and attention they deserve plus gain some daily morning exercise while walking your dog! I'm looking to be able to walk dogs early in the morning before my job at 9am. If possible, I can do drop in visits afterward 5pm. I'm fully available Saturday and Sunday. I have a fenced in yard to give dogs some freedom, but I am looking to give dogs walks as often as possible around the Danville/ Alamo/ Blackhawk and San Ramon areas.
About: I am a college graduate, living at home while I look for a full-time job. I have grown up with pets my entire life. I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback, German Shepherd, Tuxedo cats, and Tabby cats. I have pet sat for over 8 years with animals of all sizes and ages, and would love to help out! I am currently searching for a full-time job, so I have a lot of free time to care for your pets. I can stay overnight or check in throughout the day, depending on their needs. I am very diligent when caring for animals. I like to always have my eye on them and have an understanding of what they need, whether that is rest, love, or food.
“Fei is so kind, and she went above and beyond while caring for my cat. She is quick and thorough with communication, asks a lot of important questions, and makes sure to check in frequently. My cat absolutely loved her, and I could tell he was very well taken care of and loved while I was away. Also, my apartment and all of my cat's space/things were well-maintained and neat when I got back, which I appreciate so much. I would 100% ask Fei to watch my pet again in the future and would highly recommend booking her. Thank you, Fei!!! :)”
“My dog is so happy when Bar shows up at our door! Zibby gets good exercise and is always panting when she gets home, which is literally what the doctor ordered! Zibby loves her and what more could you ask for?”
About: Hi! Im Caitlin! I have had dogs my whole life. I have lots of experience caring for my dogs as well as others that i take care of. I started dog walking in middle school, and have started to do more dogsitting! I have experience with many different breeds of dogs, big and small! I am currently a college student. Besides attending classes, i have lots of free time to take care of dogs and take them for walks! I always pay attention to the pets and make sure they are happy, but also being safe. While walking, i always keep them on leash and away from the cars driving by. While in the house, i do my best to keep an eye on them and give them lots of pets and get their energy out!
“I had a last-minute need for someone to check in on my dog due to a flight delay, and Hailey truly saved the day! She responded quickly, was flexible and reliable, and kept me updated throughout the entire process to ensure my dog was well cared for. I’m so grateful to Hailey for stepping in on such short notice and would highly recommend her for any future pet sitting needs. Thank you, Hailey!”
About: I adopted my four legged friend 7 years ago and have dedicated all my free time to training and adventuring with him. I adore animals and love being able to train and spend time with them so that they can enjoy the world as much as we do! I have been pet sitting for friends for nearly 10 years for both pups and kitty’s, I grew up with cats and pet sit my best friends when I need some kitty love. I am currently between scientists jobs so I am available pretty much any time we’re not on overlanding, camping or on backcountry adventures with our pup! I take a soft approach to training and care, as my boy was a rescue and very tentative with people and scared of nearly everything. I am happy to discuss care with owners and want to keep to your commands, care, and schedule because I know how important it is for our pets!
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, especially those who need patience, structure, and understanding. I have a strong background in caring for both young, high-energy dogs and senior pets who require a gentler, more attentive approach. Over the years, I’ve adopted and cared for shelter dogs, including one of my most meaningful experiences: transforming my 3-year-old German Shepherd who came from an abusive and neglected background. She was fearful, submissive, and untrained when I first brought her home. Through consistent training, positive reinforcement, and a calm, stable environment, she gradually became a confident, obedient, affectionate, and deeply trusting companion. She is now 15 years old and remains a living example of the patience and care I bring to every animal I work with. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, build trust with nervous or reactive dogs, and adapt care to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s helping a young dog learn structure and good habits or providing comfort and routine for senior dogs, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and balanced environment where every pet feels secure and understood. I pick up shifts bartending but I cant adjust my schedule around sitting others dogs. I will be free when needed so no worries there. I have a nice size balcony but that the dogs can hangout on if they would like but i also take my girl out often.
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Walter. She took care of him over the holidays and was very communicative with us the entire time. Our little kitty tweaked his paw while we were away and she kept us updated 100% of the time and fielded all of our questions. She game planned with us and made sure he was taken care of. She made us feel so comfortable while we were away and we knew he was in good hands. I couldn’t say more positive things about her. She’s awesome & kind. We will definitely be rebooking in the future.”
About: I've taken care of close family friends dogs and I've worked at a pet resort for dogs and other animals. You can trust me to treat them with so much love and give them their basic needs and anything else you'd like for me to do with them (: I currently work with dogs full time with a schedule and I will work around the schedule and when it comes to your fur baby I prioritize them first before working with other dogs. I do not have pets of my own but because I've taken care of others and worked at a pet resort for dogs and other animals I know what's needed to be done. I know dog behavior, feedings, medicine, how often they should go use the bathroom, etc.
About: I am a Pet owner of a 15 year old dog weeny dog, and in the past I have grown up with over 6 family dogs, 3 cats and taken care of many neighborhood pets (dog/animal sat and house sat) over the years! I am a realtor that works from home with a 12yr old son. My son Ayden is a total dog lover and very kind and caring with animals! I have a fully open schedule to care for your fur baby while you are gone! I usually go on a morning, afternoon and evening walk. My neighborhood has a huge greenbelt with tons of walking paths and grass lined with wonderfully shaded trees. I give all the animals I pet sit the same love and care as I do my own animal! I will follow exact instructions for feeding, exercise, etc. I am very flexible with my schedule and my care techniques to fit your pup's needs! I work remote at home, and am self employed so I am available at anytime of day to care for pets. I am able to stay at pet owners home and work from their home as well in order to give pets the most possible attention, love and care while their fur parents are away. I will follow all instructions given by owners and respect their wishes for their fur babies! I write notes for owner about times of feedings, walks and potty times so owner knows I am on schedule and following their instructions.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals, with a dad who’s a farmer and a home full of furry (and sometimes feathery) companions. From a young age, I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, and while life took me down a different path, my love and passion for animals never changed. These days, I enjoy walking and carrying for dogs. There's something special about just being present with them. I’m also a proud mom to two animal-loving girls (ages 8 and 10), and together we dream of having a house full of animals... if only we had the space! I am self employed so I can set my own hours. I love to be outside. I walk my own dog everyday. Happy to take animals on walks, play with my own dog or even go on a hike. I live on ½ an acre with lots of grass and a fenced in backyard. We live right near the Iron Horse Trail so walks are encouraged. =)
About: My life has always been my dogs. I have been taking care of dogs and other pets my entire life and it's truly my life's purpose. I have experience with all breeds especially elderly chihuahuas and timid breeds. No breed is too difficult for me. I have experience with rescuing and fostering for the past 15 years as well as volunteering at shelters. I've been exposed to all different backgrounds, personalities, sizes and breeds. No matter what all dogs are good dogs it's just matter of giving them the attention they need and that's what I'm here to help you with! I'm an avid hiker and walker for my two boys and will customize play time and amount of exercise to your baby. I'll make sure you get pictures and updates and can promise I'll do anything to make sure you furry child has a doggone good time! I have a flexible schedule currently and will be attending school in the spring. At the moment I am available mostly between 11am-10 pm Monday-Saturday. I can do mornings on occasion or Sundays if necessary. Don't hesitate to ask and I will always see what I can do. My dogs get fed twice a day and get their preferred treats. They get daily walks and 2-3 hiking adventures a week. They are very different temperaments and energy so I am used to tailoring their exercise routine accordingly. I will care for your pets in a similar way or as needed and agreed upon during our communications. I am very in tune and attentive to what your pets needs are. I will respect the rules set forth by the client and most importantly make sure your pet is cared for and truly enjoyed their time. I will always do my best to leave your loved one in a better state than when I arrived making sure all their needs are met including any meds, feeding, treats, water and waste removal and exercise. If you have special requests please let me know.

Andrea took great care of our kitties. She is very responsible and genuinely loves animals. She asked excellent questions and took detailed notes during our meet & greet. She sent us photos and detailed reports for each drop-in visit and even brought in our mail!
Brooke just took care of our 3 cats and did a fantastic job. She was here on each day we requested, sent photos and made sure our fur babies had everything they needed including some much needed affection. She is really great with animals. I highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 6,909 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Alamo Oaks. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
