“Hannah was great! She responded promptly and we were able to set up a Meet and Greet as well as our required visits on short notice. This was our first time using a pet-sitting service and Hannah made it a seamless experience! I would definitely want Hannah to watch after my pets again, and would highly recommend if anyone is considering a pet-sitter!”
“Jane is truly an amazing, reliable, and attentive cat sitter! 😊She took such wonderful care of Mochi and Taro during her visits. She provided detailed daily notes and sent so many cute photos and videos that gave me total peace of mind while away. She was very gentle and understanding with Mochi's shy nature and built great rapport with Taro. I'm so grateful for her help and will definitely book her again in the future. Highly recommended!👍🏻”
About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a longtime pet owner, I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and temperaments. I previously cared for three dogs of my own and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and multi pet households. I’m comfortable caring for shy or anxious pets and always take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease. I can accommodate special feeding schedules, daily routines, and individual care needs to help maintain consistency while you’re away. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout their pet’s stay, so they always have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel right at home. I’m trusted with others animals. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am home throughout the day, allowing me to provide attentive, personalized care from morning to night. Your pet won’t just be checked on, they’ll receive plenty of companionship, playtime, affection, and supervision. I’m able to accommodate special feeding schedules, medication routines, potty breaks, and individual care needs to help keep their routine as normal as possible. Whether your pet is staying for a day or an extended visit, my goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions before their stay so they feel as comfortable as possible. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home where pets are closely supervised and treated like family. I have access to a secure, fenced outdoor area within my apartment community for safe potty breaks and fresh air. I’m experienced caring for shy or anxious pets, as well as homes with multiple pets, and I always adapt my care to each animal’s unique needs. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your pet’s stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and in caring hands.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of pet and house-sitting needs. I’m open to different schedules, including extended stays, overnight sitting, and last-minute bookings when available. My goal is to make things as convenient as possible for both you and your pets. I take safety, trust, and respect very seriously. I understand that when I’m caring for someone’s pet, I’m also being trusted with their home and personal belongings. I treat every household with the same care and respect I would expect for my own, making sure pets are safe and comfortable while keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I’m mindful of boundaries, follow the owner’s instructions, and always leave the home and belongings exactly as I found them.
“Vyanh is super sweet and personable. Very professional and punctual. I was worried that my cats would be lonely but she took time to give them scratches. My first time having someone come into my house to feed them but Vyanh was so great. Very good experience!”
“I asked Angela to house sit to keep my cats company and I am so happy I found Angela on here! She is truly the best sitter you could ever ask for. Shes the kindest, most caring and reliable, and went above and beyond to care for my cats. My cats loved their time with her. Would 100% book her again!”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing with Gravy and Berto while I was away for a week! She took such great care of them, kept me updated, and gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were safe and loved. I came home to two happy, well cared for cats. I’m so grateful for her and would definitely trust her to watch them again. I highly recommend Elizabeth! 🤍”
About: For over a decade I have honed my knowledge of how to care for cats and dogs in both a volunteer and professional job setting as a Kennel Attendant. Now I wish to use those skills to make sure your pets are pampered and healthy whike life takes you elsewhere! Its important for animals to stick to a routine so I make sure food, water, enrichment, and exercise are given everyday! During summer and winter holidays i'll be available full time. During spring and summer semester I'll have classes in the afternoon but excluding those few hours a day and making sure my own animals are cared for I should be available to make your animals the priority! Household rules differ so Id love to receive instructions on what you specifically want and need for me to prioritize! By default.I will feed and water your animals, provide company and enrichment, allow regular acess to restroom areas and provide at least two walks a day though I am welcome for requests for more!
About: I’m planning to pursue a pre-veterinary path in college, and I’ve had the opportunity to intern at a local animal hospital where I gained hands-on experience in a professional pet care setting. Through this internship, I learned how to monitor animal behavior and it has given me exposure to a variety of breeds & personalities. In addition to my clinical experience, I’ve grown up caring for my own dog who has now passed and have pet sat for family friends’ dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic medications, and running/walking energetic dogs (my pup was a puller) My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind knowing their animals are in capable and caring hands. I am now on summer before I start college at the end of Sept, so my schedule is very open and flexible! I drive my own car so transportation will never be an issue. I live in a gated community in a three-story townhome, which does include stairs. For dogs staying in my home, I always monitor pets closely and keep a clean, pet-friendly environment. However, I typically prefer house sitting in a client’s home, as it allows pets to remain in their familiar space and routine. I find that most animals feel less stressed when they can stay in their own environment, and I’m committed to maintaining their normal schedule, safety, and comfort.
“Jennifer took care of my two cats, a part of my family, for a whole week while I visited Central America. 🦜 This was my first time leaving them together so I was apprehensive, but during the meet & greet, I knew Jennifer had the expertise to be my cat sitter! I contracted her for two visits a day, 30 min. each and that worked out well. My older cat is twelve and my rescue is two and Jennifer managed them wonderfully!!! She was exceptional in maintaining contact with me, and sending me photos of my fur babes playing and relaxing! I highly recommend Jennifer for your pet sitting needs. 🐾”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs (both big and small) and currently own 2 cats so I’ve had the best of both worlds! I have previous experience working at a dog boarding facility (Dog Republic) where I was responsible for picking up, driving, and walking up to 8 dogs at one time.
“Elyssa did an amazing job caring for our cat while we were away for a few days. In the past we took our cat to a boarding facility when we traveled, but she definitely seemed a lot happier staying at home and having Elyssa drop by a couple times a day. She was prompt with her visits and Snowflake seemed happy to see her and spend some quality lap time with her when she dropped in. We would definitely recommend Elyssa and will use her again for our upcoming trips!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Haleigh was absolutely wonderful! She came to my home while I was out of town to check on my two cats and my dog, and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable having her there. She made sure all of my pets were fed and taken care of, and she even cleaned up the messes they made while I was gone. 🐶🐱🐱 It gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur babies and my home were in good hands. Haleigh was dependable, caring, and respectful of my home. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their pets! ❤️”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Cerritos
Samantha was great taking care of our two cats. She was prompt to respond and provided daily updates on their care. Of note, one of our cats is very fearful of new people and will hide under the bed until they leave. Samantha was able to get our cat to come to her. Every time she visited this was very comforting to us because we worry about our cat never coming out from under the bed, we will certainly book her again!
Bronte was wonderful. She made 2 visits a day to check in on my two cats for 3 weeks when I was away. She was always on time, communicative, thoroughly dependable, professional, and great with the cats. There were a few other small unexpected issues that arose with house related stuff - entirely unrelated to the pets - that she graciously took care of for me in my absence. Highly recommended and I'd gladly request her services again!
We’re so glad we found Andrea! She took wonderful care of our three cats during our trip and made the experience much less stressful for us. Our cats are sensitive to changes in their routine, and one of them has special needs and lives separately from the others. Andrea handled their different needs with patience and attention, kept us updated with photos, and was always responsive and accommodating when we had additional requests. We especially appreciated that she took the time to interact with our cats rather than simply completing the basic tasks. One of our favorite moments was seeing photos of Leo affectionately rubbing his face against her hand. It was reassuring to see him so relaxed and comfortable with her. What touched us most was something Andrea did entirely on her own. When she learned about Tom, a stray cat we feed outside our home, she offered to leave him some food and made sure he had fresh water. We never expected her to take on that extra responsibility, and her thoughtfulness meant a great deal to us. Andrea is dependable, considerate, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We’re grateful for the excellent care she provided and would happily book her again. We highly recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! ❤️🐾
Asmita was amazing! She was great with the cats and took exceptional care of them. She took detailed notes at the meet and greet and we felt confident leaving them with her. She handled their food, water, litter box, treats, playtime and even walking our cats in their stroller. She treated them like family and was attuned to their needs. She also thought to bring a barrier to keep them from escaping out the front door (as they try to do). We had complete trust in her and we especially appreciated her detailed notes, pictures and videos. We highly recommend booking her and will definitely do so again for our next trip.
She was an absolute lifesaver during our move! Thanks to her, I could focus on the move without worrying about him for a single second, and everything went smoothly. I'm genuinely so happy and grateful. She's kind, experienced, and so attentive — I wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Thank you! 💛
Honestly always the best for our baby. We traveled to see families and have been so busy, yet we had no worry because Lissi have always been amazing with Hanako. Please book her and you will finally have a peace of mind, she is very respectful as well of your space.
Jennifer was kind, caring, and compassionate. She treated sunny with care and love. In addition, she gave us daily updates on how sunny was doing. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner. Sunny is usually afraid of strangers, but she immediately warmed up to Jennifer . Jennifer was asked to administer a complicated set of instructions for care of sunny, including handling medication and specific food. She did this very well and we are well pleased with her.
Livio and Chen took great care of our cat Micky this past week! They were super communicative and kept us updated throughout with lots of pix and videos of Micky. They also brought to our attention a potential concern to follow up on which we really appreciate!
OMG! I cannot even BEGIN to say how GRATEFUL I AM to have Jessica watch my furbabies! This is my 1st time using Rover & I wasn't worried for one MINUTE that they weren't in the BEST CARE! She made sure my guy got his insulin shots on TIME & even THOUGH the Princessa didn't HONOR Jessica with her presence, she was still so happy to see me when I got home & was no worse for wear! I would recommend her to anyone looking for caring, responsible person to take care of your precious babies, Jessica is it! You won't regret it!
We love Candy! Candy did great taking care of my kitten and my medically complicated rat. She was able to perform more complicated medical tasks for the rat without difficulty. My pets loved her and she went above and beyond, even stopping to check on my roof to make sure it wasn’t leaking during the rainstorm.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Cerritos is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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.

- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 90% 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.
