“David cared for our three cats while we were away and performed exceptionally well. He went beyond expectations with our older cat requiring medication, ensuring she received every dose by mixing it into her food and ensuring she ate every drop. He was prompt and thorough, inspecting all three animals even when one hid. He sent detailed entertaining updates and lots of photos. I strongly recommend David for your pet care needs.”

“Sara was amazing with our three cats when we went out of town. She spent time playing with all of them even our grumpy hard to find kitty. She kept us updated on the weather so we could make sure they kept cool during a surprise heatwave and made sure we knew all the changes in the house while we were gone. I highly recommend her to care for your pets, she truly treats them as her own.”

About: I have sixteen 5 star reviews on Trusted House Sitters (along with my wife Allison who joins me on most dog and cat sits.) We have taken care of dogs of various sizes as well as a lot of cats. We both work remotely which makes us very flexible for pet care. I can work remotely from anywhere on my laptop (part time!) which allows me plenty of time to care for your dog or cat. After my years as a Trusted House Sitter, my goal is to spend most of my time dedicated to caring for animals as they are my passion so they will be my number one priority! I care for your pets in your home, I will be in most of the day working online so they will get plenty of potty breaks and attention. I am always available to contact and will make sure you receive photos and updates multiple times a day.

About: My first exposure to cats was Raisin, my beloved tabby at 3 years old. My next cat "of my own" was Spooky, a Russian Blue abandoned in a Seattle Queen Anne Hill apartment building who joined our family when I was a preteen. I've been caring for cats ever since. My husband and I have cared for many cats of all ages over the years and my own cat Elvis just passed at 18, so I know exactly what it takes to care for a senior cat: the feeding schedule, the medication, the careful observation, the quiet corners they retreat to. I'm not the cheapest sitter on here. But I'm the one you don't have to think twice about when it comes to your home space and your loved ones. I work remotely on UK/east coast/stock market hours, so cat care fits easily into my week without treating it like an afterthought. I'm free most weekdays and weekends for drop-in visits, feeding, litter, and playtime. Cats do best with consistency, so I try to keep to the same times each day for their comfort rather than squeezing visits in around everything else. In-home visits are best. Cats thrive when their space, smells, and routines stay constant. (I do have a secure space available in my home if you need it.) Medical care: I've managed pills, transdermal meds, and IV fluids for 7 of my own cats over 25 years. Adobe Animal Hospital in Los Gatos knows my care for cats well. First bookings: Brief meet-and-greet at your home. This lets us discuss care routines and your cats, and gives you peace of mind seeing me in your space. We'll also note entry points, security (alarm code, door locks), and anything else that matters for your home and pet's safety during my visits.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I began working in horse stables at age 11, and I’ve been dog and cat sitting since my teenage years. Animals have always held a very special place in my heart! I have experience with drop-in visits, dog walking, house sitting, and caring for nervous pets who need extra patience and reassurance. I’m also a runner and would love to take active, leash-trained dogs on runs—with your permission and at a pace suited to their needs. I’m comfortable with litter box maintenance, accident cleanup, and light housekeeping to keep your home tidy while you’re away. As a pet parent to two wonderful cats, I understand how important it is to find someone dependable who will treat your pets like family. I’ll give them plenty of love, attention, and thoughtful care—and keep you updated so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I am an early morning runner, so I could take your dog with me for a run in the morning. I have a flexible schedule and could feed cats/dogs, take dogs out I have two cats that I keep indoors and let out under supervision only. We play a lot, my kitties love the spring toys! They love to look out the open window and make the "eck eck" at little birds and squirrels in my yard.

About: I have been pet sitting for the past 3 years using Trusted House sitters. But grew up with dogs, have lived with cats the last 10 years and love being around all types of animals! I have watched a variety of pet with a range of needs. I love learning about the unique personality each animal has! I work a completely remote job as designers from 7 am - 3 pm PST. During these times, I have sporadic meetings, but nothing that would take me away from watching your animal for over nights. I am a flexible and great at adapting to different schedules and routines. I am an active person so am able to go for walks, hikes or runs based on your dogs needs. I am a naturally tidy person and I will leave your home exactly in the state as when you left. I am available to watch any type of pet in your home! I only can accept dogs in my home. I live on farm with a fenced in yard but outside of that there’s a lot of space to roam. I live with 3 other roommates who are also animal lovers. We live with a cat but he is outside most of the day and feels quite indifferent about dogs.

About: I have a bachelor degree in animal science and worked as a vet assistant at vet hospital. I can give medications. I walked and feed 50 pets in the kennels separately in vet hospital. I currently working as a cat and/or a dog sitter in this app. I like going on walk with your pets as a daily exercise. I can take care of pets because of my background of veterinary assistant and have experience dealing with sick pets and healthy pets. I give them their pills. I can have enough of having pets in my life so, I want to take care of more animals. I like keeping the client’s home clean as if they were mine so, I make sure that the home look same as if I was not there.

About: I've had pets ever since I was born but really started caring for them when I was about 5 years old. We've had every kind of pet from bunnies, birds, dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, gerbils, rats, mice, lizards, etc etc. I've been doing sits for trusted house sitters for about 5 years. As I traveled around the country. I have five star reviews from every client. I'm not doing trusted house sitters as much now that I'm stationary in Santa Cruz. Fairly new to Santa Cruz. Working a couple days a week at The Bagelry, trying to decide if Santa Cruz is the place for me to put down roots. I make sure to meet the pets beforehand if possible and get as much information as I can about their needs so that I can make sure they feel comfortable and safe with me there while their owners are out of town. I'm flexible with whether or not they want to sleep with me and how their walks are and they're different eating schedules, and habits.

About: I’ve cared for cats, dogs, rabbits and more since a young age. I enjoy it and it is a passion of mine to bond with every animal that I encounter. I am available all days of the week as well as some holidays. I can be very flexible as well. South Bay clients welcome :) We keep all of our pets indoors as means to keep them safe from predators and harsh weather conditions. If they are crate trained we can provide crates for them.

“Leaving your pets to go on a trip can be stressful, even more so if they have health conditions. However, rest assured that your pets will be in great hands with Shannon. She was absolutely wonderful with our kitties. Not only she carefully followed all of our instructions, including administering medications and providing extra attention to some of our kitties when needed. She truly went above and beyond to keep our kitties comfortable, happy and healthy. Throughout our time away, Shannon was in regular contact with us and provided thoughtful updates and observations about our kitties. We could enjoy our trip knowing that someone really cared about our pets.”

Almaden Valley, San Jose, CA, 95120

About: I have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember, including behavior and training. I believe that every dog is a good dog. I began my career in animal care at an exotic pet shop in my teens. Between retail gigs, I had the privilege of working at a rescue shelter and a zoo, where my passions for animal conservation and welfare continued to grow. After that I spent some time in the veterinary field, where I gained valuable experience as a veterinary assistant. It was working in the veterinary field where I really got to pursue my passion for working gently with anxious and "aggressive" animals. Due to some physical limitations, I am not able to work full-time anymore, so I am now taking time to focus on what I really love to do, which is making pet and owner's lives easier. In my free time, I love to crochet, play video and borad games, and go on hikes with my partner. I am currently available full time to walk, sit, or drop-in on your pet! I can make most days and times work. Let me know what you need. I am not able to host for pet-sitting currently, per my lease at my current living arrangement, but I am available to stay in the pet owner's home if requested.

It's so nice to be able to totally trust Luna with my two Maine Coon cats. Her level of care along with her professionalism is exceptional. While I'm on vacation I get her photo/video updates. My cats always seem relaxed with her. When I get home from vacation I can see it around my house. The clean floor around their food dishes. The well kept litter box area. Well fed and happy cats. She's always sure to contact me with any updates. I would heartily recommend her to any potential clients. I'm happy to have her in my cat's lives.

Terra was great. She understood my cat needed space while I was away and adhered to all of my requests. I was not able to do a meet and greet and she stepped in without an issue by talking it over on the phone. She made me feel comfortable leaving my baby with her. I’d recommend her and hire her again.

Bianca took wonderful care of our two cats and kept us updated the whole time, which gave us real peace of mind. Everything was clean and calm when we returned, and it was clear our cats were comfortable and well cared for. We’d happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive sitter.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Brookdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Brookdale is $29 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $35 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,695 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Brookdale. 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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brookdale. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
