“I'm so happy with Natasha! She is dependable, follows instructions and thoughtfully cares for my cats. She listens, takes notes but most importantly actually follows what directions are given! I highly recommend this thoughtful and attentive sitter for your pets. She is worth it and I will be contacting her again when I need to leave town again.”

“5 ⭐️ for Madeline! She did an excellent job with communication and showing up for my babies. I’m an anxious pet parent and I didn’t worry about a single thing when I was gone. She provided thorough updates and photos from every visit and communicated when necessary. In addition, she cleaned up so well I didn’t feel like I had to do extra work to tidy up when I got home. She also graciously looked after my bearded dragon. 11/10 would recommend for anyone needing pet sitting services and I will be booking with her again when the time comes.”

My pet mom guilt always kicks in when I leave them but her detailed recaps and photos helped so much. Thank you Emily! Looking forward to next time :).”

About: With 31 years of experience caring for animals, I understand that pets aren’t just pets. They’re family. As a devoted pet parent myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals while you’re away. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting, with an emphasis on maintaining your dog’s established routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and respectful of each animal’s unique personality, preferences, and boundaries. Whether your dog is an energetic adventurer, a laid-back couch companion, or a little nervous around new people, I’ll take the time to get to know them and provide care that suits their needs. You’ll get peace of mind, regular photo updates, and reliable communication. Your dog will get the star treatment, plenty of affection, and yes, that ridiculously sweet baby-talk voice I reserve exclusively for animals. Because every pet deserves to feel like the most important little creature in the world. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. I’m available for weekday and weekend drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight house sitting. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my daily routine, whether that means a morning walk, afternoon playtime, evening feeding, or keeping your pet company while you’re away. I understand the importance of consistency and will do my best to maintain your pet’s regular schedule. I’m also happy to discuss specific scheduling needs, including extended visits and care during vacations. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. With 31 years of experience caring for animals, I understand the importance of maintaining a familiar, secure environment and respecting each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (when discussed and agreed upon), household routines, and any special considerations. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and will never force an animal into an uncomfortable interaction. I’m also respectful of your home and privacy. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secured, maintain a clean environment, and provide regular updates and photos so you know your pets are safe and happy. My goal is simple: for you to return to a happy pet and a home exactly as you left it.

Grand Central, Glendale, CA, 91201

About: I’ve always had pets of my own and have been caring for animals for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with kittens, adult pets, and senior or medically complex animals, including providing around-the-clock hospice care for my own beloved cat after his ataxia diagnosis. I currently share my home with Leon, my one-year-old cat, and Chicken, my 26+ year-old African Grey parrot—both rescues (Chicken was found abandoned and taken in) and very loved. I love caring for pets—cats, dogs, and birds of all types and sizes—and I’m happy to welcome other small animals too, just let me know! I treat every pet with patience, attention, and affection, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work from home and my schedule is flexible. My goal is always to schedule any services based on the needs of you and your pet(s). I will always follow any instructions on how you prefer your pet to be cared for. Otherwise, I will always care for them in the safest and healthiest way available. The same way I care for my own pets. Leon is an indoor kitty with unlimited access to fresh air and sunshine from his lounging cots attached to our large windows. He loves his wet food, and his meals are on a “flexible” schedule, and no all day grazing. He receives lots of playtime with his humans and more independently. Of course, he gets brushed, not always with a happy purr, but he gets as much as he will tolerate.

“Anna was excellent with my fur babies. They seemed super happy in the photos she took. All visits had little blurbs with how the check-ins went. She was very professional and didn’t hesitate to ask any additional questions with information I missed. I’ll definitely be reaching out again anytime I’m in need of a sitter!”

About: I have been taking care of cats since my childhood. I also have cared for cats of friends and family. The safety and well being of my pets for me is a priority. I am working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of cats after noon on weekdays as well as weekends. I can also accommodate different schedules. provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment and always treat every cat with care and respect. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and make sure their cat feels secure and comfortable. I’m happy to care for your cat in my home or yours, wherever they feel most at ease

“Detta was wonderful! She stepped in on short notice after our original sitter cancelled, and she took such great care of Bodhi during his drop-in visit. Bodhi had an upset tummy, and she followed all of his care instructions perfectly and kept me updated throughout. I especially appreciated all of her notes after the visit — it gave me such peace of mind knowing how he was doing. Bodhi was happy and comfortable, and I would absolutely book Detta again. Highly recommend!”

About: Caring for pets was one of the first responsibilities I ever learned. Whether it’s been on the east coast or west coast, I’ve always been known as the reliable pet uncle amongst friends and family. My current full-time role is remote with limited meetings to attend, which gives me most days and hours of the week. Tuesdays and Wednesday are the most challenging in the morning, but beyond that it’s smooth-sailing. My current living situation is with a pair of cats and when needed I feed them twice a day, clean out their litter, and play with them whenever they have the zoomies. I have been available day/night whenever called upon and even for weeks at a time.

About: For the last 8+ years I have worked in dog kennels, boarding, training and shelter environments. I am focusing on gaining my trainer and/or handler certificate as well as animal CPR care. I am a professional dog walker so it's more than just a side gig for me; I take your dog's health, happiness and safety seriously. My visit to your pets will vary on their needs from just a potty break or feeding to an hour long hike. I am very detail oriented when it comes to communicating what services I have done from what meals or treats given, bowel movements and behavioral updates. I have experience with newborn puppies, elderly pups and reactive dogs. I may suggest a different walking harness or basic training methods if I feel it would be better for your pup; if I feel like I can't safely handle your dog I will do my best to help find a better fit. I am able to take up to 4 dogs in my car if all fit and get along. I love taking them out for hikes or parks but never off leash. I prefer visits no earlier than 8am or later than 6pm, but am willing to work with special requests. Currently serving the San Fernando Valley areas; Burbank, Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Alhambra, Van Nuys, Sun Valley, etc. I currently have a rather open schedule for house visits, potty breaks, play visits, hikes and walks. I can not house any pets in my home but am available for in home pet sittings. I live in Burbank so can go about 20 miles radius depending on the care request. I try to stick with your usual daily schedule to help ease your pet's stress while you're away. I stay with any training requirements and diet restrictions. The only times I leave the home are for other pet care needed around town. I understand how stressful it is finding a new pet care friend and I value your trust more than anything. (Yes I will bring in your mail and packages of course!) I communicate daily with updated photos and texts. My rates are posted due to my years of experience and changing up my own life schedule to accommodate for your needs. I also don't mind taking care of plants too!

About: I’ve lived with cats for about twelve years and pet sat for dogs of all ages and sizes. I have experience with insulin, medication, and special food needs for cats and special food needs for dogs. I also have experience with aggressive cats and am happy to watch them. I’m a college student with a part time job, but I can come mornings, evenings, and night on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The rest of the week I can come whenever needed. I think it’s very important to not just come over to feed animals and take care of their bathroom needs. Pets are used to having someone there 24/7 so they should have some company and someone to play with them while their owners are away.

About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog when I was in elementary school, and since he was a puppy, I've been responsible for feeding him, taking him on walks, playing with him, and making sure he's happy and well cared for. Even today, I still help care for him. I also regularly care for a sweet pug named Cookie, who stays with me anywhere from a week to a couple of weeks at a time. During her stays, I make sure she gets plenty of walks, playtime, affection, and follows her normal feeding routine so she feels comfortable and at home. In addition to smaller dogs, I have experience with large breeds as well. My newest fur baby is a German Shepherd, so I'm comfortable handling bigger, more energetic dogs and making sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I also have experience caring for adult cats and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Whether your pet loves to play or prefers a calm, quiet environment, I'm happy to adapt to their needs. I treat every pet like they're my own, and I know how important it is to leave them with someone you can trust. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you're away, and to give you peace of mind through reliable, attentive care. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have lots of time to look after your pets! As of now I am on summer break, and starting the fall quarter I will have online part time school, I have a backyard that is fully stone walls with gate to protect the animals! I have fur babies of my own, but they each have their own crates that they are able to sleep in, or I have room to set up a crate for your fur baby as well:)!

About: As a cat owner myself, I know cats come with VERY different personalities. Some want cuddles immediately, some want to play nonstop, and some prefer to observe you suspiciously from across the room for three business days. I’m patient and happy to let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’ll make sure your cat is fed, comfortable, entertained, and given plenty of attention (on their terms, obviously). And yes-you can expect lots of photo updates because I will absolutely be taking pictures of them. 🐱 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I’m home most of the day and am only considering work-from-home opportunities, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I already plan my days around my own pets (as every pet parent knows, they’re really the ones running the schedule 😂), so adding walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, or some extra cuddle time is something I genuinely enjoy. My flexibility also means I can accommodate different schedules and give your pets quality time without having to rush off to an office. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet is fed, has fresh water, gets their potty breaks or litter box cleaned, and of course gets plenty of playtime, attention, and cuddles—if they’re into that! For walks, I’ll adjust the pace and length based on your dog’s energy level and needs. For cats, I’m perfectly happy to play with them for 30 minutes or respectfully coexist while they stare at me from across the room. 😹 Most importantly, I’ll keep an eye on your pet’s behavior and make sure they’re safe and comfortable. I’ll also send photos and updates so you know exactly how your little boss is doing while you’re away. 🐾

About: As an avid animal lover from an early age, I've always gravitated toward animal care. I've volunteered with the Humane Society, worked on animal sanctuary farms, and rescued my own cats as strays. I have experience raising kittens and puppy training, working with trapping and adopting programs, and feel comfortable administering medications as needed I'm currently available for early morning drop ins, evening walks and check ups, or overnight stays as well! I am best suited for someone whose dog is okay with cats. I currently work Monday-Friday but have a flexible job with an office only 5 minutes away and can stop by house-visits as well as check in with pets staying at my home without issue I'll care for your pet the same way you would! When it comes to feeding schedules, exercise, and any other needs I'll make sure your pet is comfortable and happy. I'll also happily provide updates throughout the stay with photos so you don't have to miss them too much!

This was my second booking with Sarah and a for a lengthier time of about two weeks. She was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond to befriend our more shy cat who wasn't eating as our other cat was taking her food. She made sure that our kitty ate every day and sat with her to comfort her and keep our other cat from eating her food first. Additionally, Sarah was very easy to reach and responded promptly to any questions and left detailed Rover cards with pictures of the cats.

She was very communicative with any questions or concerns that came up, responded quickly, and provided photos to update us. She did a couple extra tasks on top of what we asked her to do to make sure our cats and house were well taken care of. 10/10, would definitely recommend and rebook.

Salena is a great sitter for my older cat who has some health challenges. I never have to worry that she won’t be able to give Domino her oral meds, which other sitters have struggled with. Salena spends her time giving Domino attention, brushing her and petting her which I appreciate when I have to be away.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Burbank

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Burbank is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $39 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 November 2026, there are 2,532 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Burbank. 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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 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.
