“I recently hired XI to take care of my cats while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly attentive, reliable, and caring. My cats were well cared for, played with, and clearly adored the extra attention! I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. When I returned, my cats were happy and relaxed. I highly recommend XI to anyone looking for a responsible and loving cat sitter!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Erjin and would highly recommend them. They were reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring toward my cats. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away.”
“Omar is incredible with our little cat, Cosmo! Our boy loves him and Omar is very attentive and communicative, letting us know how his litter is looking, if he’s eating alright, and if he seems comfortable/playful as normal. We get tons of photos every day, and we’ve noticed the care Omar puts into being in our home, too! Cosmo always has a fresh pot of cat grass planted after visits with Omar, and we notice litter vacuuming as well. Above and beyond for us!! If we can help it, Omar will always be our go-to for care.”
“Dawn is the best cat sitter we've ever had! She leaves thoughtful comments, spends quality time with the cats, is communicative, and even kept our house clean while we were gone for a month. I recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will go above and beyond to keep you at ease while you're away.”
“Sierra was absolutely amazing with our kittens. Before our trip, one of them unexpectedly needed medication, and Sierra handled all the care instructions so carefully and confidently. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She constantly kept us updated with photos and videos from every visit, and it was obvious from the way the kittens interacted with her that they genuinely liked and trusted her. She also took her time playing with them and making sure they got attention, affection, and enrichment, not just the basic care. She didn’t just “check in” on them, she truly cared for them like they were her own. We came back to two happy, comfortable kittens, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Would highly recommend Sierra to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter!”
“Zihan did an excellent job of checking in on my cat while I was out of town for over a week. I appreciated the updates and pictures she provided each day and her attention to detail. She went above and beyond with keeping everything clean and perfect for when I came back.”
“Stephen was absolutely amazing with my cat ! I booked Stephen last minute for 6 days . I am glad he was available. I could not have found a better sitter for my cat. He made sure to feed and refill my cat’s food and water while I was gone. He sent tons of pictures and very responsible in communicating with me over the Rover app! He checked in timely and was extremely professional, he spent a lot of time playing with my cat! I will definitely book him again”
“Qianwen was very kind and gentle with my little boy, very good communication, detailed notes and pictures was very accommodative of the needs of my pet. Went above beyond to make sure he was scared for. would definitely recommend working with her.”
About: I’ve taken care of my own cats since they were kittens and they are about 8 years old now. I’ve also dog sit for friends and family while they’re were out on vacation. Love of fur babies! Wish I had a bigger place to own a dog. For now, I’m okay with getting all my dog love from dog sitting! I work remote and have a very flexible schedule so I don’t have a problem with scheduling. As long as it’s communicated to me a day prior so I can prep for the visit :) I can try to fulfill any specific care requests if needed as long as the client provides full care details. I want to make sure your fur baby is taken care of the way they like it!
“Marisa provided great care for our dog Nina, a 70 lb German Shepherd. We had her come over to spend sometime with our dog, a short walk around our community and feed her. We're glad we found a great dog sitter and will use her again in the future!”
“Ziying was a wonderful cat sitter for our drop-in visits. She is very kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated before visit and shared lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. My cats were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease. I would definitely book Ziying again in the future and highly recommend her.”
“I would highly recommend Zhengjun when considering someone to take care of your pet. Zhengjun stepped up and took over for my original sitter when that arrangement didn’t work out properly. Without Zhengjun’s assistance we would have been in a real predicament. So thank you Zhengjun for stepping up and saving the day!!”
“Conner was awesome- we needed someone to watch our elderly cat and bunny rabbit and Conner was an awesome choice! He was a clear communicator and we felt that our animals were very well taken care of! Thanks Conner!!’”
“Rendell was amazing with my cats. In addition to the standard care he was able to catch Darcy and give her the medication. He finished by washing the pet dishes, going beyind my ask. I can home to happy cats and didn't have to worry about my ailing cat while I was gone.”
“Jade was an amazing sitter! Both of my cats loved her, one cat gave would climb onto her shoulder to give her hugs each day and the other cat would lay in her lap and drool in relaxation. The best part of my time away was getting the photo updates from Jade. It was super easy to coordinate with Jade and she is on top of all details. I highly recommend her to watch your pet!”
“Yiwei and Yue were wonderful! They were very responsive and easy to work with. Yue took the time to meet Nimbo before our vacation. She took notice of Nimbo's mannerisms and was familiar with the types of litter and food that we had in the house. While Yue was visiting, she noticed that the automatic pet feeder was out of dry food so she took the time to make sure that it was refilled. Thank you again for watching over Nimbo!”
About: I provide active, attentive, and structured care for both dogs and cats, with a focus on exercise, comfort, and individualized attention. For dogs, I’m especially a great fit for higher-energy pets that need more activity and engagement. I provide: • 3 daily walks (typically 20 mins to 1 hour each depending on energy level and needs) • A large fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise • Plenty of interaction, playtime, and supervision throughout the day I also have extensive experience caring for cats and have raised 5+ cats over the years. For cats that prefer quieter environments or separation from dogs, I have a dedicated empty bedroom available to help them feel safe and relaxed. Additional care I can provide includes: • Brushing and de-shedding • Nail trimming • Basic dental cleaning (if tolerated) • Frequent updates with photos/videos I focus on quality care and take a limited number of pets so I can give each one more attention and a calmer experience. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, or evening visits. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust to your cat’s routine to ensure consistency and comfort. I prioritize reliability and will make sure your cat is cared for on time every visit, whether it’s daily check-ins or extended care. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment and always follow your care instructions closely. I understand that cats can be sensitive to changes, so I focus on minimizing stress and maintaining their normal routine. I’m experienced with handling cats gently, including grooming (brushing, nail trimming, and basic hygiene if your cat allows). I pay close attention to their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I will keep you updated with photos and notes after each visit. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities.

Zihan did an excellent job of checking in on my cat while I was out of town for over a week. I appreciated the updates and pictures she provided each day and her attention to detail. She went above and beyond with keeping everything clean and perfect for when I came back.
Dawn was amazing at taking care of our cats! We were on a vacation for over a week and Dawn came in everyday to check on the cats, feed them and play with them. She made sure that our cats were not stressed at all. She used to send us a lot of pictures everyday, so we missed our babies a little less. I loved that she was very communicative. She texted everyday with details of how cats were doing. She is very experienced with automatic feeders and litter bots. Having Dawn made our vacation stress free.
Both my cats love Mingjie, which shows what a good sitter she is (because one of my cats is super shy but he totally remembered her from 3 months ago!) She plays with my kitties so much and takes tons of photos! I no longer have to worry when I have to go away because I know my cats are in good hands!
Jiamin is the best pet sitter ever! One of the things I appreciated most was how much attention and affection Jiamin gave to my cat. On top of that, Jiamin wrote a River Card after every visit and included tons of pictures and videos. My cat looked like he was having an amazing time—honestly, even more fun than he usually has with me, lol. Jiamin also noticed that my cat might benefit from having more companionship. Because of that, I requested an additional last-minute visit, and Jiamin was kind enough to accommodate it. I could feel the care and affection in every visit, and my cat definitely loved Jiamin.
Rendell was amazing with my cats. In addition to the standard care he was able to catch Darcy and give her the medication. He finished by washing the pet dishes, going beyind my ask. I can home to happy cats and didn't have to worry about my ailing cat while I was gone.
Sukky (Siqi) is an amazing Rover cat sitter — incredibly attentive and truly knows how to interact with cats. Hoohoo was so well cared for, and reading her daily update notes genuinely made my day every time. She’s thoughtful, observant, and clearly experienced with cats. She also went above and beyond what I expected: she helped brush Hoohoo’s fur, tidied up the living room, and took absolutely fantastic photos (I’m literally using them as my phone wallpaper!). On top of that, she even drew an adorable little sketch of Hoohoo — such a sweet and personal touch. I’m so grateful for everything she did, and I will definitely book Siqi again next time. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Alviso on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 3,993 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Alviso. 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.
