About: I've owned pets since I was a kid, from Aussies to Pitties to cats. I love all animals and their unique personalities. I'm here to help you care for your fur family, from walks to feeding, to sitting. I'm very patient and reliable and have open availability to be here to help when you need it. I'm currently have a very flexible work schedule and am looking to help keep myself occupied as well as another source of income. I'm a single mom of a High School Senior so I have lots of free time to devote to your pets. I'll provide care for your pet in your home. I'll feed, water, walk, entertain and clean up after; however snuggles and pets are free. If your pet has special needs like meds, diet, mobility restrictions, I'll gladly help as needed as well. Your pets will be in good hands.
About: I have cared for pets since childhood, bringing over 30 years of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and small animals. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. Cats & Medication: Mom to 2 cats and known among friends as a "cat whisperer." Skilled in reading feline cues and administering medication gently and reliably. Dogs of All Sizes: Extensive experience raising and handling everything from energetic Jack Russells, Chihuahuas, and Pomeranians to strong breeds like Dobermans. Safety First: Dependable, attentive care with consistent photo updates so you always have peace of mind while away. I have a flexible full time job where I work occasionally in Santa Clara or from home in downtown San Jose. I have access to a car. I can provide regular updates via photo and text and make sure I have a clear understanding of how best to take care of your furry loved ones.
About: I've always been an animal enthusiast for the longest time! As long as i remember I've taken care of a plethora of pets from a small goldfish to an energetic Doberman. This experience has given me a keen eye and compassion on how to keep pets happy and cared for! I'm currently a full-time student with a lot of flexible hours, which means more time to take care of your furry companion. I'm available for sitting and walks: all day on Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays and in the early day on Saturdays. I'll be sure that not only does your pet (or pets) stay happy and clean but your home as well! If you have any specifications concerning caring or walking your pets I'll follow them to a T!
“Very great experience with Mary! She was very good with my golden retriever spiky! Since it was hot she made sure to adjust the walk so he wouldn’t get too hot and she was very flexible when I had a change in schedule too! Definitely recommend”

“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.”
About: I've taken care of dogs both small and large with me currently owning two german shepard back home. I have had indoor cats as well with me currently owning one at the moment! Besides that, I aid my parents in caring for our hens and rooster with me evening having helped monitor baby chicks!! I am currently a college student. With that said, my schedule allows me to have time for caring for pets. I have a 3 day weekend which allows me to fit in as many visits as one may need. I will only enter designated areas when entering homes to visit pets. I will follow instructions exactly as the owner states and will not disobey their orders.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have hands-on experience caring for dogs through my own Golden Retriever, Vesper. I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks and playtime to feeding, keeping pets company, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their routine. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and care I’d want someone to give mine. My schedule is currently very flexible, which means I can be pretty accommodating to your pet’s routine and needs. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to work around your preferred timing whenever possible. I’m especially happy to spend some extra time with pets who need companionship during the day. I’ll always do my best to keep their normal routine consistent so they feel comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know it can feel stressful leaving your pets with someone new, especially when that person will be coming into your home, so I take that responsibility seriously. I’m respectful of your home, attentive to your pet’s needs, and will follow your instructions and routines closely. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, keep an eye out for anything unusual, and communicate with you if I have any questions or concerns. I’m also happy to send regular photo and text updates so you know how your pets are doing while you’re away.
“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!”
“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!”
About: I used to be a dog tender at a doggy daycare and board facility. I watched larger groups of dogs for hours and helped with overnight boarding, meals, and medication. I am a student athlete and full time college student but have mornings, afternoons, and evening time to care for pets! Weekends are often free and I’d love to be able to care for animals when I’m available. I love going on walks and being outside to make sure pets are getting out of the house and getting exercise. Also making sure to interact and play when them often when inside with them.
“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!”
“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!”
“Michele watched our cat for an entire month. We came home to a happy cat who looks great. We really appreciated the daily photos and special care she gave to Lucy!”
About: I have 7 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter care, maintaining routines, and giving pets plenty of individual attention and affection. I’ve also been fostering kittens, which has given me hands-on experience caring for young cats and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and socialized in a new environment. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to follow your instructions closely and treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I would give my own. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home, so I’m home throughout the day and can give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, feeding, and bathroom breaks as needed. My schedule is flexible, which makes it easy for me to follow your pet’s normal routine and give them consistent care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make their safety, comfort, and routine my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding instructions, walk schedules, medications, house rules, and any special care needs you provide.

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!
Anke always takes great care of Sammy and Tilly. Even on this trip where I didn’t have cell service and had to rely on satellite communication, she kept me informed, including reporting not just on their bodily functions but also their demeanors. We had a bit of a misunderstanding surrounding food storage but she was very apologetic.
Soyoung is such a wonderful and trustworthy pet sitter. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with, which gave me so much peace of mind\. She also spent quality time playing with my cat and clearly cared about making sure my cat was happy and comfortable\. On top of that, Soyoung is genuinely kind and lovely, and I felt completely comfortable trusting her with my cat. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!
It’s a continued relief and pleasure to have Yukie tend to our cats. Our cats seriously adore her and seem to have such a blast with her (we’re convinced they have more fun playing with her than they do us). Yukie is so good with our cats unique needs (I have one super shy girl who comes out and plays super hard only when Yukie is watching her, another who’s picky about food who seems to really enjoy when Yukie makes his dinner but I know he’d turn is nose if I made the same meal for him). Yukie is so polite and kind, very communicative and reliable. Whenever we’re planning a trip our first “to-do” / thought is to check Yukie’s availability. I get very worried and anxious about my pets but feel like I never have to worry when I know Yukie is taking care of them. Thank you Yukie we so appreciate you!!
Sam is truly one of the best on Rover. She has cat sat for us several times but most recently we needed her help on very short notice and she not only responded promptly but made sure our fur babies were cared for incredibly. She is incredibly thoughtful, highly responsive, but best yet a true cat whisperer (I.e., she’s even become friends with our shyest cat). Here’s to Sam & thanks for all you do!
In the 13th hour, after having a sitter cancel on day 1 of my trip, Meara was incredibly flexible and was able to make room in her schedule to help care for Chicken and Pookie. While the kitties were under her care, she invested time to get to know them. She went above and beyond to not only communicate their needs but their emotional states. If you're looking for a sitter that cares and love your pets, Meara is the person for you!
We always know our cat is in good hands with Cassidy, and we're so grateful for how well she follows any instructions we leave. It's such peace of mind not having to worry about our cat when we're out of town, and Cassidy always sends wonderful updates and pictures. I highly recommend her!

As of September 2026, there are 3,134 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.

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.
