Leilani is fantastic!! I appreciate her driving pretty far to come take care of my cat who needs some very sticky medication. She is a pro at giving meds and my cat seemed very happy and content when I got home. I would highly recommend Leilani!!

Neysa is great with our girls! We have three dogs and book her regularly for drop in visits. She’s flexible when our schedule changes and was able to help out in a pinch when one of our dogs wasn’t feeling well. She’s very responsive as well! For drop in visits, I don’t expect much but she runs around the yard with them and gives us thorough updates. Couldn’t be happier with her care.

Jennilee was a great help. She took care of our two dogs and one cat for an evening feeding and playtime for a one-week period. She stepped in last-minute and did a great job with pets and a house she didn’t know. Thanks, Jennilee!!

I highly recommend Jennifer to help with your pets. we had to go to the east coast recently and was a bit nervous just having our older cat boarded. Jennifer, came twice a day to care for our cat providing updates and her status as well as pictures. We were able to keep our cat in our home and our cat was much better off for it.

About: Caring for animals brings me so much joy, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, and I currently have a 2 year old cat who is adorable. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, loving, and attentive to care for your pet when you’re away — and I’d be honored to be that person. Whether it’s a walk, a cozy overnight stay, or just some playful company, I’ll treat your pet like my own. I'm calm, patient, and I pay attention to every detail, from routines to special quirks and needs. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're gone — and to give you peace of mind. I'm currently working part-time, which gives me the flexibility and energy to provide attentive, loving care to your pets — especially when they need it most. On weekdays after 3 PM and throughout the weekends, I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, or walks. Whether it's a cozy evening walk, playtime in the yard, or a relaxing overnight stay, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Spending quality time with animals helps me unwind and brings so much happiness into my life — and I’d love to share that with your furry friend! I have a fenced yard and a indoor cat. Whether it's a cozy evening walk, playtime in the yard, or a relaxing overnight stay, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: Hi my name is Dani and I am 28 years old. I am currently looking to make a little extra money while I finish up grad school to become a physical therapist!! I have an extensive amount of experience working with pets, including dogs, cats, bunnies, goats, etc. In regards to dogs, I am willing to take care of all sizes, breeds and ages. I have watched dogs that ranged from 6lbs to 100+lbs. I am highly active and can wear your pet out if need be! I typically like to stick to a strict routine as far as feeding schedules and daily walks go. On a day to day basis, I take my dog out 2-3 times a day and will gladly do the same for yours! I will love your pet as my own. My two baby boys at home are Sage and Kavik! Kavik is the most handsome 13 year old Husky and Sage is a 1.5 year old black cat (the best cat you’ll ever meet). My babies are my entire world. I consider myself to be very reliable and hope others would say the same. If you are looking for casual day drop ins or an overnight stay I am here for you :) I am currently on break until the end of August! I will be out of town for some of the weekends, but besides that my schedule is open. I have two pets at home and am unable to board. I typically stay at other people's houses and am more than comfortable doing so! I will make sure your pets are well taken care of and given plenty of love (probably too much at times).

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 2,185 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ballena. 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 Ballena. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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.
