“Anke is wonderful. Our shy cat loved her so much on her first visit, we had to request she come back again to watch over Panini. We appreciate her responsiveness, attentiveness, and care!”
About: I grew up surrounded by any kind of animals. My family and friends always trust me their babies because I have so much love to give them! I’m a college student during the week. My best times would be weekends (Friday-Sunday) but I am open to chat if you need me at other times. I love animals very much so their safety is always first to me. I will not only make sure the furry ones are safe, but I will also engage and play with them so they don’t feel alone.
“Zola is great! My cat is skittish and my partner’s cat is more outgoing, and she was able to give each the right amount of attention. By the end of our trip, they were right at home with Zola Her updates and fun photos were much appreciated as well; would rebook again!”
“Jessica was amazing! Completely understood the needs of each furry member of the family. Gave attention to those who needed it and checked in on but gave space to those that are more wary. Definitely would hire again.”
“Katie did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away. This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with the service. I'm always nervous about leaving my animals when I travel so it was wonderful to get daily updates and pictures. I would definitely use Katie again.”
“Kasandra looked after our cats for over 3 weeks while we were away. One of my cat has asthma and she was open to learn and give the inhaler as well. She was always on time and shared each details of the cats with lots of pictures. Additionally, she took care of our mails. I would highly recommend her.”
About: Growing up, I've always had an affinity for animals. I've spent much of my life caring for my family's dog, and spending time caring for my neighbors' and friends' pets when they were away. I’ve got a senior cat of my own, and have also have spent time throughout the past several years caring for my friend's cat when she would travel frequently for work. I have experience administering medicine to cats, and am comfortable doing so for dogs as well. I am excited to be a part of Rover to spend time with more four-legged friends! I’m new to San Jose, and am especially excited to explore and be active outside with your furry family member. I also am available to provide drop-in visits for both cats and dogs. I follow directions very carefully and will ensure to always keep your house clean. Happy to discuss any other precautions to take so that you and your pet are as safe as can be. Feel free to reach out, and I look forward to meeting you! I work remotely and part-time giving me flexibility throughout the work week to take care of your pets. I’m also occasionally available on weekends. Please let me know of your care needs! While caring for pets in your home, I practice safe entrances and exits to ensure your pets don’t leave the house. I make sure to follow all directions and protocols given as to not introduce any stress or confusion to your furry friends.
“We felt at ease with Megan taking care of our pups while we were out of town. She sent frequent updates, pictures, and was quick to pivot when we changed feeding instructions between our meet and greet and the time she came to care for them. Looking forward to booking with Megan again!”
“Katerinne was always prompt sending me an update every day with photos oh my cat Sophie while I was away. My cat felt comfortable with her right away and I’m so glad she had someone to care for her. Thank you Katerinne! I would highly recommend her :)”
“Likang was absolutely amazing caring for my cat. I was away for 2 weeks and she came to check on her every other day. She fed Daisy, refilled and cleaned her litter, played and entertained her, and even taught her a trick! She sent lots of photos and updates to me which I super appreciate. I often go on long trips so I will 100% book her again :)”
“This was our first boarding experience and it was wonderful! She did an amazing job creating a space for our kitten to relax as well as explore hanging out with her other cats. She was very responsive, updated us with photos and videos regularly, and was very accommodating. We will definitely be rebooking if she is available during our next trip!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs with different personalities, ages, and needs. I also have a senior pet of my own, so I understand how important it is to stick to a consistent routine, medication schedule, and daily care. I’m especially patient and careful with senior pets and understand that they may need a little extra time, attention, and reassurance. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications as instructed, and keeping pets comfortable and happy. I’ll treat your pet like my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and can accommodate weekday care depending on the timing. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual feeding, walking, and bedtime routines to help them feel comfortable and keep their schedule as consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with an onsite dog park, giving dogs a convenient and safe place to get fresh air, exercise, and play. I’m also comfortable keeping pets on their usual routines, including feeding, walks, and anything else that’s needed per your instructions. I’ll always follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me.
About: **Too much for daycare? Too important to leave with just anyone?** Hi, I'm Whinde. I specialize in calm, structured care for dogs who don't thrive in busy daycare environments. Many of the dogs I work with: • get overwhelmed in group settings • are anxious, reactive, or sensitive • were asked to leave daycare (it happens, no judgment) • simply do better with calm, one-on-one attention I'm professionally trained in canine behavior, so I bring real structure and calm leadership to every visit, not just a leash and good intentions. My focus is helping dogs feel safe, regulated, and understood instead of overstimulated. ✅ Large and powerful breeds ✅ Sensitive or anxious dogs ✅ Working and high-drive dogs ✅ Puppies through seniors ✅ Strong leash pullers (yes, even that one) **Services** • Decompression walks • Drop-in visits • In-home sitting If your dog struggles in daycare, on walks, or with overstimulation, this is exactly what I work with. Every new client starts with a meet & greet, so your dog gets to know me before I ever walk through the door alone. After that, start with one visit. You'll see the difference. 🐾 I am currently working from home, and I make my own schedule M-F. I am also available on the weekends with a very flexible schedule. I train dogs too! Ensuring safety, trust, and a home-like environment for your pet, following your instructions meticulously. Your pet's well-being and your home's security are my top priorities.

“Sarit is absolutely wonderful and i’ll continue to book with her until I no longer can! She took such good care of my two kittens while I was away for a whole week. Communication is always super prompt and efficient. She follows all of my instructions and takes so many adorable photos every time she visits. I can tell the fur balls love spending time with her. She truly goes above and beyond.”
“Conner was great! Reliable, communicative, and he asked all the right questions. He even visited our home an extra time to bring in a perishable package that we'd forgotten was going to be delivered. His daily reports on how our cats were doing were excellent--just the right amount of detail. I'd recommend him without reservation.”

Nicole was wonderful with our Hoppy! She was very responsive in all communications, always on time, and we felt completely comfortable leaving our cat in her care. Hoppy is usually very shy and doesn’t trust people easily, but she warmed up to Nicole from the very first day. Her updates and photos were so helpful and reassuring that Hoppy has been taken care of while we were away. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
Ni is a gem! She cared for our two cats while we were away for several weeks and I am very grateful for her care and attention. Our boy is shy but once he gets going, very playful, and she quickly put him at ease and played with him extensively during her visits, and he was clearly eager and excited for her visits. Our other usually hides the whole time anyone new is in the house, but Ni was calm and kitty-boundary-respecting, which set her at ease so that she was even coming out at Ni's visits and engaging. Ni gave great updates and I felt very reassured at all times. My highest recommendation and gratitude!
He took great care of my fur babies and gave them lots of pats and love. He also updated me on my roommates dog! I loved the updates and getting pictures of my cats while I was out of the country! He even helped with filling the dog's water bowl!! Thank you so much for taking care of them!
Hannah is such an amazing cat sitter--i cant recommend her enough! Her care and attention to detail is top notch. I know that my kitties are in good with her which means so much to me! Thank you for your constant dedication to excellent care--it's much appreciated.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Buena Vista is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $43 per visit.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
