“Griselda is the best. We know that when she takes care of our kitties, we never need to worry about them. Highly recommend you book Griselda when you need someone to look after your pets.”
“Ophir was an absolute dream babysitting my cat. Every day she sent me pictures of the stay, communicated throughout the entire time I was away. Being a cat mama I was very anxious to leave for a week but Ophir took the anxiety away because I know she was there for my animal. I recommend Ophir a million times, such a sweet person!!”
About: Father to two boys and two dogs looking to pick up extra money and make ends meet. Lifelong dog rescuer and animal lover, current U of A student and future K-12 art educator. Currently attending U of A Mon-Thursday. I have limited availability during gaps between my classes. On Friday I have much more availability, as I am not attending classes that day. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, as well as issuing controlled medication at scheduled intervals. I personally don’t give my dogs table scraps, because I know how sensitive their digestive systems can be. I have prepared raw diet meals in the past for pets. An exercised dog is a happy dog!
About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail. I make sure each pet feels comfortable and understood, and I take the time to learn their individual preferences, sensitivities, and quirks. Whether your pet needs structured play, slow-paced walks, medication given on schedule, or extra reassurance while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. I’m currently a full-time veterinary student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to fit visits, drop-ins, and walks around my classes, and I always make sure I have dedicated time to give each pet the attention they need. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I keep feeding areas clean, tidy up any messes, and make sure the space is safe before I leave. I’m detail-oriented and safety-focused, and I never rush through visits—I want every pet to feel cared for, not just “checked on.”
About: I have more than 20 years of experience caring for cats and 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, including shy, skittish, and anxious dogs that need patience and time to feel comfortable. I am also a meditation teacher. That background has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to bring a calm presence to new situations. I take time to notice each pet’s behavior, respect their boundaries, and let trust develop at their pace. I love walking and spending time outdoors. I am happy to provide relaxed neighborhood walks or more active outings based on your dog’s energy level and needs. With your approval, I am also open to taking suitable dogs for outings at Catalina State Park. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting for dogs and cats. I follow each pet’s established routine and pay close attention to their comfort and individual preferences. My goal is to help your pets feel safe and settled while you are away. I am comfortable handling feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box care, and detailed written instructions. I also respect the privacy and cleanliness of every home I enter. Communication matters to me. I love taking photos and will provide regular updates so you know how your pets are doing. I welcome a meet and greet before the first booking so we can review their routine, needs, and personality. My schedule offers flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. I often work remotely, which allows me to spend substantial time with pets during house-sitting stays. On some days, I may need to leave for short periods for work or appointments. I will always discuss my schedule with you before booking so we can make sure your pet’s routine and care needs are a good fit. I treat your home with care and respect. I keep pet areas clean, bring in packages or mail when requested, and make sure your home is secure whenever I leave. You can expect regular photos and clear updates throughout the booking. Please let me know how often you prefer to receive them.
“I've used Alexis three times now, including a recent week-long trip, and she's been consistently excellent. She's reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about my cat's well-being. I always come home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and have complete peace of mind while I'm away. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy cat sitter.”

About: With a lifetime of animal care experience—from owning dogs, cats, and livestock to working as a kennel associate at a veterinary clinic—I provide compassionate, knowledgeable care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m familiar with first aid, reactive dogs, and rescue animals, and currently share my home with three rescue dogs and a rescue cat.

“Amazing service. Oliver stayed in my residence to take care of my two cats for a long term stay. He sent regular photo updates (as requested), was quick to communicate any updates or questions, and generally kept the place standing and clean while I was gone. Very trustworthy and reliable. 10/10 would book again for short and long term services!”
“Abbygail is the best sitter our kitty cats have had! She is so attentive and caring, truly the best choice we made in a long time. Highly recommend her to give your pets the care and attention they deserve when you're away.”
About: I am rancher with a PhD in chemistry that loves the outdoors. Taking care of your pets while you are away is my favorite pastime. I am a chemist at the Biosphere 2, my weekends and week schedule is very flexible and I am always happy to accommodate your schedule.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Catalina is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $24 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.

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.

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.
