“CJ has been amazing with my dog. He is very uncomfortable around new people and can be difficult to work with. CJ is very understanding of this and handles it well. CJ is very aware of what my dog is experiencing and is careful not to push him when he is exhibiting extreme fear -- nor does she become frustrated by this. I'm very happy to have found someone that work with him and his specific needs in such a caring way.”
“Such a blessing to have Matthew watch over our fur babies! He was attentive, responsive and dedicated to keeping our babies safe and secure during our vacation. Daily updates and fast responses, even though we were halfway around the globe. He adapted to a problem while we were gone, and resolved it for us without complaint. If you’re thinking about him, don’t think twice, just book!”
About: I have pet sit for many neighbors and family friends since high school. I am great with any kind of animal and at any age. I also can administer any medication for any animal if needed. I am a full time student and my schedule is pretty open. I get my school schedule a couple months in advance, so we would be able to work around both our schedules =] I have a pup of my own and I would care for your pet as if it were my own. We can go to the dog park, beach, or long walks (whatever you're comfortable with). I am good with special instructions such as food supplements or food restrictions.
“Erika was a fabulous cat sitter! She was very attentive and gave our cat so much care and attention while we were gone. Excellent communication and great pics. I am so happy to have a dependable pet sitter now! Thank you Erika!”
“McKenna was great with my kitty! Dropped in for 3 visits while out of town, always got great photos and updates. Will definitely book with her again for all future trips!”
“Henny is such a wonderful and reliable sitter for our beloved Cat! She helped us same day when our house burned down in the Palisades Fire. She is what every family needs. Like Mary Poppins for your Fur Baby. Thank you Henny!”
About: For 29 years that I have my own dogs, I am ready to take care of dogs other than my own. I am a retired Pharma low level exec. I am mostly at home, and if I do step out of the house, I am usually not away for more than 3 hours because of my dogs. My dogs sleep with me in bed, and so are the pets that I will be caring, if that is your preference. At the moment, I would only accept male neutered dogs. Apart from my Sunday morning, Monday afternoon coffee group and Friday breakfast group, I am mostly at home to look after and play with your dogs. My house is clean, well maintained with a secured wall fence. For safety reasons, the dogs are not allowed to roam around the yard without me being outside as I have a pool and potential air predators. My house is equipped with automatic fire sprinklers.
About: I am very flexible and easy to communicate with. I am schedule oriented, my first walk of the day is around 8 am, second walk (depending on age and breed) 11-12pm, and the following walk no later than 3/4 hours of the previous walk. I am capable of providing a routine based schedule for eating and treat if desired as well. I feel as though I am best fit for this position because of my patience, dedication and love for dogs. I myself have grown up with 4 dogs, which I have had the opportunity to take care of myself. I look forward to further demonstrating why I am the right doggy daycare candidate! I am currently working on call for a hospital, giving me much free time and flexibility. I am open to talking about your schedule needs. I take care of cats and dogs. I treat my animals like they are my children. Any animal I encounter receives the best care and love as if they were my own.
About: I have 1 cat and 2 dogs. With the pups I take them on daily walks and cooking healthy meals for them! My cat is more independent but I make sure her fur and nails are tidy ! I’m currently working part time on the weekends, so during the week I’m available all day whatever time. I like to stay busy and pet care will be a worth while way to spend my time I would adhere to the client’s rules and requests for their home and pets. I want to make this process as seamless and trusting as possible
“I knew our cats were in good hands with Molly all week long! We were away for a trip and she was reliable and communicative the whole time, I didn't need to worry about a thing. Plus our normally reserved cat walked right up to her for a nose boop when they initially met--a terrific match!”
About: My daughter Ary and I run this business together. We own a house in a prime location 1 mile from the airport. We are both huge animal lovers! Dogs are amazing. Every single dog has their own little unique personality and I’ve never met a dog I didn’t love. My daughter and I run this business together and one of us is always home so your pet will get plenty of attention and never left on their own, I have a fenced yard that is very secure and I never leave the dogs out there on their own. Animals have the run of the house, & they are allowed on all furniture.
“I highly recommend Jon. He's very responsive to communication and good with my pets. He's responsible and showed up when he said he would. I'm so glad he was available both times we've needed a dog watcher. We very much appreciate him!!”
“Ashurina did a wonderful job watching our pups, allowing us to get out and play some golf. We have a high-energy puppy, who is shy with people and a 15 year-old dog who is slowing down a bit. Ashurina played with our kids and made sure they got their potty breaks and treats. We rebooked her last minute for an additional drop-in visit. Highly recommended.”
“Angelica is very reliable and quick to respond. She was available last minute. It’s wonderful to have someone that we can trust. She is very sweet with our two rescue dogs 💕”
About: I have experience caring for my 2-year-old Chihuahua, ensuring his health, nutrition, and well-being. I understand small(or big) dog needs, including feeding, grooming, and daily exercise. I’m also attentive to their behaviors and comfort, especially in different environment. I am currently unemployed so i stay home with my 2 year old chihuahua, with plenty of free time. I am available weekdays and weekends at any time. I have a fenced yard with enough space as well as a pet of my own to keep your puppy company. I can also provide toys and treats.
“Kevin watched my cat for a week and did a superb job! The communication was constant, and he went above and beyond to ensure my cat was safe in the house on these hot summer days. He's a sitter I will definitely call again when I need services. Thanks Kevin !”
“My dogs loooove you!!Thank you so much for loving and caring for them like I do!! It's such peace of mind knowing you adore them and treat them like your own!!! Until next time! 🤗 XO”
“Mary did an outstanding job looking after my precious boy, Cornelius. The photos and comments she sent were adorable and gave me peace of mind. It was a delight to come home to a happy cat that had been loved, cared for, and pampered in my absence. I am lucky to have found Mary and would re-book her in a heartbeat. I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every pet in my care. As a dedicated dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and truly attentive watching over your fur baby. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I intentionally plan my week to make sure every pet in my care receives dependable attention, patience, and love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully so pets feel secure in their familiar space. I also keep homes tidy and respect each client’s preferences and boundaries.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cathedral City
I met Megan for the meet and greet for her to drop in to check on my cat while we were out of town for a few days and I immediately trusted her. I appreciate her excellent communication and as a bonus she took great photos of my cat which made me feel even more at ease. She was super helpful and followed all care requests perfectly. I will definitely be rebooking!
Melissa was the best possible answer for our need to care for our 3 cats during our vacation! She did everything we asked and more. She clearly cares a lot and knows what she is doing. The kitties were all healthy and happy when we got home, and the photos we received while we were gone show that our shy cats warmed up to her right away. The house was all as we left it, if anything a little cleaner. I recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants a kind person to care for their animal friends and to keep a responsible eye on things while they are away.

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.

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.
