About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, and small pets like gerbils. I have a calm, patient, and friendly demeanor that helps me quickly build trust with animals of all personalities. As a dedicated animal lover, I treat every pet like family. I understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates and photos to keep you reassured. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and pets who require medication, and I’m attentive to their individual needs and routines I am available most days out of the week, and on weekends. I currently work from home, so I can assure you that your pet will get all the attention and love they deserve! When boarding pets in my home, they are provided with a private, comfortable space in a dedicated spare bedroom to help them feel safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am respectful of all household rules, maintain cleanliness, and provide regular updates and photos to ensure peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have always been an animal lover, and I have been fortunate to work with them many times throughout my life. From working as a kennel tech at an animal hospital, to pet sitting for friends and family, and also from having pets of my own. I am reliable and responsible, and I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I am looking to provide dog walking services and drop-in day visits. I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule for a variety of needs. I will be providing care for pets in the clients home only as I have two senior cats that would be too stressed out to have other animals coming in. While providing care to a pet in a clients home I will be respectful of their personal space and only do what I need to do to care for their animal(s).
About: Growing up around all kinds of feather and furry friends, caring for animals has always felt second nature to me. I have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, poultry, goats, rabbits, pigs, and even reptiles. Whether it's a gentle morning feeding, a peaceful walk, or some down-to-earth cuddle time, I make sure your animals feel safe, understood, and right at home. I pride myself on being patient, calm, and observant, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm, as my family has daily ranch duties. Mornings start with feedings and check-ins, afternoons are flexible for visits, and evenings wind down with quiet time, walks, and last rounds. Your pets become part of the natural flow of my week. In clients' homes, I maintain your pet's routine with consistency and care. I provide scheduled feedings, exercise, enrichment, medication if needed, and a clean environment. I respect your space, follow all instructions, and communicate throughout visits with photos and updates.
“Li took fantastic care of my two cats! She sent daily updates with photos and information about the visit and was very proactive about checking that everything was as it should be. She worked well with the cats and got them to trust her and respond with affection despite being a new person to them. It is reassuring to have someone like Li taking care of them when I can't be there!”
“Stacey is such a blessing to take care of my fur baby even on a short notice. She is easy to reach out to and very responsive, which is super convenient. Thank you Stacey bfor taking care of Tintin during the Christmas weekend as well.”
“I was nervous about finding a new person to watch out pets during travel, but I’m so glad I found Octavia! We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a clean place - I will definitely ask Octavia to take care is the fur fam again.”
“Appreciate Flora for taking our last minute request and drop in for our cat Reggae over weekend. Communication with her was prompt and easy, and she did a great job taking care of Reggae. She also took some of the best looking cat pics. Thank you Flora!”
“Angie offered drop-in visits for my two cats for 4 days. Having cats of her own, she was great about letting them come to her during the meet & greet and from the lovely photos, seemed to offer adequate playtime during visits. She even vacuumed around the litter box and ran the dishwasher. Planning to book again. Thanks Angie!”
“Sabrina has been the best find on Rover! She is kind, dependable, and very responsive. You can immediately sense her love for dogs. She treats my pup like one of her own and he is always very excited to see her. I highly recommend Sabrina’s services!”
“I love working with Charlene, because she is professional, responsible and provides high quality service every time! Whether it’s one cat or seven, friendly or shy, low maintenance or requiring tricky daily medication - I can relax knowing that my furry companions will be well taken care of while I’m away. Thank you, Charlene!”
“Sejla is amazing! She took excellent care of my kitty and sent comprehensive updates each visit. My cat is a big people kitty, so I always worry about her when I leave. It was a relief to know she was in such good hands with Sejla.”
“Ariana took great care of my senior dog Chester, who has some special health issues. She is very caring, thoughtful, and a good communicator. I would not hesitate to have Ariana care for Chester again!”

As a new graduate Physician Assistant I have a lot of free time until my first job begins and would love to help you care for your pet!! I am currently unemployed for a few months until I begin my first Physician Assistant job. Therefore my availability is wide open and I am able to care for your pets during the day or evening. I will make sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you are gone. From playtime, to walks, just let me know your pets preferences and I will happily try to stick to their routine.

I’m especially patient and intuitive with both high-energy puppies and older dogs who need extra gentleness. I’m happy to help reinforce basic commands, support potty training for younger pups, or provide a slower-paced walk and care for seniors. I always prioritize your dog’s comfort and safety and communicate clearly with pet parents for peace of mind. With me, your pet gets more than just a walk — they get genuine companionship, care, and a stress-free experience. Hi!

“Diana was AMAZING. She saw our sick cat on very last minute notice, worked so hard to get her meds in (even though my cat can be resistant), made sure my kitty was super comfortable, sent us ABUNDANT photos, put out a whole array of different foods from different places in our apartment as we were trying to get her to eat, etc. the list goes on. We were so incredibly worried about our kitty and Diana put us at ease with her care. We would hire her again in a heartbeat. She was also just so kind, patient, generous, and communicative the whole way!”
“So glad to found Chris! Chris made me feel completely at ease while I was away, regularly sending photos and updates on how my cat was doing. It was such a relief knowing my cat was in such caring and attentive hands. I will definitely be asking Chris to cat sit again in the future! Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m a De Anza College nursing student and a lifelong dog and animal lover. I’m reliable, routine-focused, and confident caring for a wide range of dogs, including high-energy pups and dogs who need calmer, structured walks. I gained hands-on experience caring for a sweet but reactive Golden Retriever while working as an au pair in Germany, so I’m very attentive to leash safety, triggers, and keeping walks smooth and safe. I’m also raising my own Golden Retriever puppy, Sunny, so I’m comfortable managing energetic dogs and staying consistent with routines. I’m detail-oriented, happy to follow your instructions closely, and I can give oral medications if needed. I’m also gentle with senior dogs who need a slower pace. You can expect thoughtful updates, photos, and calm, consistent care. Pet care fits into my weekly routine. I plan my class/study schedule around my Rover bookings so I can be consistent and on time. On weekdays, I’m typically available for morning, midday, and evening visits/walks (my calendar reflects my exact availability). I prioritize routine, so once we agree on times, I stick to them. I also build in flexibility for longer walks, extra potty breaks, and unexpected needs, and I communicate early if anything changes. Trust and safety are my top priorities, and I treat every pet like my own. In a client’s home: • I will make sure to follow your routine (feeding, potty breaks, walk style, and house rules). • I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes/harnesses before leaving. • Walks are calm and controlled: I avoid risky situations, keep safe distance from triggers, and don’t allow off-leash time unless you’ve explicitly approved a secure area. (I never take pets to dog parks unless the owner requests it and we’ve discussed it in advance.) • I keep your home tidy and secure (lights/locks, wiping paws if needed, quick cleanup after meals). In my home (if boarding/daycare): • Pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment. • I separate pets during meals/treats to prevent resource guarding. • I use positive reinforcement and respect each pet’s comfort level. • I can accommodate crate routines if your pet is crate-trained. Communication: • You’ll get photo/video updates and a short note each visit. • If anything unusual happens (vomiting, injury, appetite changes, behavior shifts), I contact you right away and follow your instructions. • I’m comfortable giving oral medications and caring for seniors who need a gentler pace. I would also prefer a Meet & Greet so I can learn your pet’s routine and make sure we’re a great match.
“Laura was a great cat sitter! My cat is super shy and Laura made her feel comfortable enough to come out and interact and get pets. She also sent me multiple pictures and an update each day, which was very appreciated since this was my first time leaving my cat with someone I didn't personally know.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Buena Vista
David did an excellent job of taking care of our kitten, Mochi, while we were out of the state. We appreciated his ability to stick with the schedule that we had for the kitten as we didn’t want to get her out of her regular routines with her feedings. He left us great notes and photos every day so we knew that she was well taken care of while we were away. If you want peace of mind regarding your pets care while you are away from home, David is the one to hire. We couldn’t recommend him enough!
I trust Terri completely with our pets. Just before our most recent trip, one of our pets developed a medical issue that jeopardized our ability to leave her even for a few days. Terri graciously agreed to add additional visits at the last minute, sent detailed updates and photos, administered medications and even caught a mistake in the dosage of one of the medications. She’s wonderful and I wholeheartedly recommend her!
Kexin really cared about my cat and took the time to get to know her personality and quirks to provide a calming and enjoyable experience. I would absolutely book again just for the kindness and compassion not to mention the care she took to keep everything clean and orderly.
TR is fantastic with my cat Nico. Her updates are full of all the info you could ask for when away from home, definitely going above and beyond. She was able to administer his meds while I was away and help keep me up to date with ongoing medical needs of his throughout the booking. TR does a great, great job.
This was our first time using Sara when our usual sitter was unavailable and she was great! She was very attentive during the initial meeting and it's very assuring to have a vet tech as our sitter as our cat gets older. She took fantastic care of our cat, going above and beyond! She sent lots of photos as well.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Buena Vista on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,020 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Buena Vista. 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 Buena Vista. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
