“Fereshteh was very communicative and took great care of my cat while I was away. She helped keep his litter box clean and cleared his automatic feeder when it was piling up and gave him some wet food too. I would definitely recommend booking with Fereshteh!”
“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.”
“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!”
“We had a great experience with Sierra! She took wonderful care of Boots while we were away and kept us updated throughout, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and attentive to all the care instructions we left. We came home to a happy and well-cared-for kitty. Would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
“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.”
“Dawn was the best sitter we’ve hired from Rover! She went above and beyond for our kitties and clearly loves what she does. She sent fun updates with great photos every day and we came back to a tidy home, despite one of our cats making a mess while we were gone. She is an excellent communicator and I felt like our pets were in being well cared for while we were away. I will be hiring her again.”
“Athena was fantastic! We had a sitter drop out two days before our trip and Athena responded promptly, came over for an initial visit and took great care of our two cats and house while we were gone for 2 weeks. We will be using her again, and I highly recommend her for your pets!!”
“Fuliang did a great job. I felt my cat Alba was well cared for. I got a nice detailed report on the last day. Could have used a picture of my cat everyday but otherwise I am a very satisfied customer and will use this sitter again for my pet sitting needs.”
About: I have taken care of and befriended many breeds of cats for more than 20 years. I also get along very well with dogs and just love going for walks with them. I have been a Pet Sitter, Caregiver and Nanny my entire adult life, and just cannot imagine a life without pets. I really connect and communicate with animals well, and get along with all types of cats and dogs, even rodents. I am also a Military Vet, so safety comes first for me. I will keep your pet and home safe and secure. I will also clean and straighten up after them, per your instructions. I am currently working mostly in the mornings, so can be available just about any day of the week in the afternoons and evenings. I only require to be given notice the night before, so I can plan for it. I will enter quietly at first, as to not startle your pets. Then will call out their name softly to get their attention. I will first focus on them and making sure they are comfortable with my presence. Then will start working on the tasks you have given me. I will always be sure to give your pet plenty of love and attention, as they will be missing you while you're away. I can feed, bathe, groom, pet, play, go for walks, even administer Insulin and subcutaneous fluids, anything your pet requires. In the end, I will be sure to clean up and lock up property.
“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”
“We needed a drop in sitter on very short notice and Wenran was wonderful. She was punctual, followed all instructions, and was very communicative. Best of all, our pets loved her. We will definitely book again!”
“Erjin arrived on time every day, and he was patient enough to try and play with my cat — who is very very shy. Purla doesn’t open up easily, but by the last day Erjin was able to play with her! I highly recommend Erjin :).”
“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!!”
“Zihan is amazing! She has the initiative to take care of my two cats and even my plants! She’s positive, passionate about the job and report timely for any abnormal situation. I enjoyed my holiday time and I will book her again!”
“Repeat client here! Tingchia is reliable and trustworthy. Couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for my senior kitty when we’re away. Highly recommend & will definitely book again!!”
“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.”
About: I've been a passionate and dedicated pet caregiver for over 10 years, starting with my own family pets and expanding to offering professional sitting services. I prioritize a pet's comfort and safety, ensuring a stress-free and fun experience, whether through long walks, engaging playtime, or simply providing comforting cuddles. I structure my week to ensure consistent and high-quality care for every pet. I limit the number of bookings I take on simultaneously, allowing dedicated time for walks, feeding schedules, play, and individual attention, rather than trying to juggle too many commitments. I maintain a meticulously safe and pet-friendly environment. My home is completely puppy-proofed, secured with baby gates, and all hazardous items are stored away. I follow all pet parent instructions precisely, including feeding guidelines and medication administration. For in-client-home care, I focus on respecting the client's space while upholding the same high standard of safety and care, including securing external doors and being hyper-aware of the pet's familiar surroundings.
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!
About: I have experience taking care of both big and small dog. My family has a large Swiss Shepard that I take care of along with a senior chihuahua. Whether your dog needs some play time at home to let the energy out or some enrichment on a walk, I can help with whatever your pup needs! I work hybrid remote during the week and am usually done working at 2, so I am available to walk/watch your pet after that. On the weekend I am more flexible and can help out either in the morning, afternoon or evening! As a pet owner, I understand how hard it is to leave your pet’s care in the hands of someone else. I will make sure to treat your pet in the same way I would treat my own.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Alviso
Highly recommend Sara! We are so grateful for her helping us on short notice and coming for a meet & greet beforehand. She was communicative and sent us detailed updates with photos. When our cat ending up being a little more shy than expected, Sara showed she truly cared for our cat and was knowledgeable on cat care. Not only did she keep her well fed, hydrated and with a clean litter box. She was also calm and patient, giving our cat the space she needed when she was feeling skittish. She went the extra mile by making sure our cat had more outdoor time (something we didn't originally plan on). Thank you so much Sara!
Isabel took great care of our cat Mayson while my husband and I were away for the weekend. She was friendly, responsible, and sent us lots of photos. When we came back, Mayson was happy and relaxed, and it seemed he didn't notice we were gone at all. Highly recommend hiring Isabel as your sitter!
We had a great experience with Sierra! She took wonderful care of Boots while we were away and kept us updated throughout, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and attentive to all the care instructions we left. We came home to a happy and well-cared-for kitty. Would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!
Erjin went above and beyond taking care of my cats while I was away. Erjin pays incredible attention to the small details, keeps everything spotless around the house, even wearing shoe covers indoors, and kept me thoroughly updated with every visit. Highly recommend this service to anyone looking for reliable and meticulous care!
Samantha did an amazing job watching our pets! She always responded promptly to any messages and asked lots of great questions when she came to meet them. We are so happy to have found someone in the area who enjoys watching reptiles and is knowledgeable about their care! We will definitely have Samantha continue to watch our pets when we are out of town!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Alviso on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,135 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alviso. On Rover:

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 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.
