“Lissi was an excellent sitter for my 2 cats! She always kept me updated with how they were doing and made sure they were fed and had water and a clean litter box. Highly recommend for any of your animal care needs! 😊”
About: I adopted a dog when I was 8, a pomeranian, took care of it and raised it since he was 1 month old. Now I don't have access to him since we moved out, someone else adopted him because we didn't have the ability to keep him. Them adopted other two puppies, huskies, the same story happened as we tend to move a lot. 1 year ago I adopted a frenchie and currently raising it, on a healthy 24 pounds and very active and energic, trying to work on his hyperactivity so I won't be able to take him with me if requested. I'm a Uber driver, so I would always be able to attend any reservations outside of this times: ●Monday to Friday 11:30am - 2:30 pm, 5:30pm - 6:30 pm. ●Weekends negotiable, standard would be 11 am to 3 pm. I feed mine twice a day, depending on activity of the day I might rise the amount he eats just a little to make up for it. Then daily training of 10- 30 minutes with split treats to not over feed.
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 have 2 years of dog sitting experience with friends and family. I also have 2 dogs of my own that I care for. I am a huge dog lover! I am currently working two part-time jobs and love dog walking on the side. I am available Monday - Friday 4pm - 9pm and Saturdays and Sundays 8am - 9pm. I walk my two dogs once daily. They are on the smaller side (~15lbs). I also have experience walking larger dogs (~75lbs). I am a very active individual, so I also enjoy longer walks that exceed 30 minutes with the dogs.
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.
“Adriana is very flexible and accommodating. I had to change the plans last minute and she was able to get everything sorted out with Rover very quickly. We always trust her to take good care of our babies when we leave town. She always communicates with us whenever she has any question, which we appreciate. Thank you for everything!”
“V was very patient when doing a drop in with my barky girl! She earned her trust by hand feeding her for a while then took her on a quick walk. She followed all instructions, left my dog safe, and locked up the house. I appreciate her help!”
About: Pending on parents wishes, we take walks, play, I will have doggie toys or they can bring their own.

“Angela does so great with my dogs. She updates me all the time and keeps my dogs happy. This is the second time Angela has taken care of my dogs and I will continue having her take care of my dogs.”

I love sending pictures to their owners to keep them updated as to how their babies are doing.
“This is my third time booking with Asmita, and I honestly wouldn’t book with anyone else! She is very attentive to even the smallest details and always goes above and beyond when taking care of my cats. She cleaned up the mess they made, washed their food bowls when she noticed some ants, refilled their water, and even cleaned up the litter they tracked around. I always feel comfortable and at ease when I’m away knowing my cats are in good hands. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gives them every time! ❤️”
About: I have my own dog at home, he’s turning into a little senior but because of my constant day to day care with him, other people around me have asked me to help! I’ve helped sit anywhere from a pug to a puppy Great Dane! I’m very playful with dogs and like to give affection, as well as be someone in their life that makes them feel safe when their owners are away! Im currently working as a weekend nanny and go to school for respiratory therapy! My schedule does change slightly every 10 weeks due to me being in an advanced program, but I have time throughout my day to play around, get out some energy, or even study while having a cuddle session. I prefer being in the environment of another pets home so they feel safer! Caring for pets in a clients home means understanding where they go in terms of sleeping, playing, as well as their limitations inside and outside of the house. Not only keeping the pet safe, but keeping someone’s home watched over is important to me.
About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience, having lovingly cared for my two dogs, Nahla and Molly, from puppy to senior years until the end. I am currently working but have flexibility to do early morning walks and check ins as well as early evening walks and check in. I can board over the weekends and Monday. I have a fenced backyard and a welcoming home. I love taking early morning walks and evening walks as well. I’m trustworthy and reliable individual.
“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: I’m naturally very observant and attentive to the little things. I pay attention to details changes in behavior, energy, body language, surroundings, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I’ve cared for dogs for more than 10 years and have been pet sitting since 2020, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust with a member of your family. I’m dependable, patient, active, and a strong communicator. My goal is for you to leave your dog in my care knowing they are not only being walked or checked on they are being noticed, respected, and cared for. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give each dog my full attention rather than squeezing walks into an already crowded day. I enjoy staying active and outdoors, so dog walking fits naturally into my routine. Whether it’s an occasional walk or consistent weekly care, I want your dog to experience someone who is present, attentive, and never just checking a box. Trust begins with paying attention. I carefully follow the routines and instructions you provide because the little details often matter most. During walks and visits, I stay aware of your dog’s body language, surroundings, energy, and anything that seems unusual. I’ll respect your home, communicate clearly, and care for your dog with patience and attentiveness so you can have peace of mind while they’re with me.
“Jack is a great communicator and took excellent care of my pup! He accommodated my request on short notice, was prompt and I’d highly recommend him to anybody looking for pet care. I will definitely rebook him again.”
About: I have always had pets growing up , specifically dogs. I love animals and go above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of.

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.
We love Serena! From the moment our pets met her they were at ease and happy! We felt immediately too that our dogs were going to be in great hands with her. She is incredibly responsive as well! It’s not always easy to find someone you trust to care for your pets but Serena is awesome! Highly recommend !!!
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! 💛
Emily took such wonderful care of our pets! We were especially worried because one of our dogs is a senior, but she gave them so much love and attention that we were able to enjoy our family trip without any worries. She kept us updated, followed all of our instructions carefully. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We will definitely ask Emily to watch our pets again in the future. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter!
Shana is great! I hired her to take care of our tortoises that live outside while we were gone for 9 days. Not only did they need daily food and water, but their house also needed to be cleaned regularly. They’re pretty large tortoises so they also make big messes. She updated me every day, took pictures, and I came home to a spotless tortoise enclosure which was a dream. She really cared for them the way we do and I knew she bonded with them from her messages. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy and extremely caring, hire Shana!
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!
Evan was absolutely wonderful with Morrie! From the start, he was communicative, reliable, and clearly a true animal lover. Morrie came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know. Evan sent updates that gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I never had to wonder how things were going. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Evan is your person. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cerritos is $17 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. 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 21,119 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cerritos. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cerritos. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
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.
