“lissi did amazing with my cat bo and made sure he got all the love and attention he needs. she was really accommodating with the last min booking, would definitely have her again!”
“She was great with our cats and took the extra time to care for them. She followed all instructions for cat care and helped keep our cat’s food area clean (no easy feat since we have some messy eaters here haha). She was very attentive to detail with our pets. We were always kept up to date with how our cats were doing and felt comfortable working with her. Definitely would recommend this cat/dog sitter for your loved ones since she did a great job!! Thanks so much!”
“This was our first time using Rover and meeting Stefanie. Our kitties who are normally shy with other people took a liking to her really quickly. Stefanie was really thorough in making sure that she had all the information she would need while we were gone, and it was clear from her daily Rover Cards and communication that she really cared about taking great care of our kitties. We will definitely look for Stefanie the next time we need a pet sitter!”
“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!”
About: I was recently accepted to Cornell University for veterinary school and have some time to spare for your fur babies before I leave in August! I worked one year for a nonprofit veterinary service called CAMP clinics and another year at an emergency and specialty medicine pet hospital. At home I own a sweet Labrador retriever named Luna and a sassy hamster named Davinci. I am comfortable with giving oral medications if your pet is able to take them in a treat without being restrained. ✨ New to Rover? Use code NATALV52479 for $20 off your first booking ✨ I am free until August, but will be going to Asia from April 14th-June 10th (with some weeks in May that I will be back) as a final trip before starting vet school. Besides those dates I am fully available to help care for your pet whenever convenient for you. I love taking my dog for a walk in the park or playing tug of war/fetch in the evenings. I have a very active dog and would love to play with yours! I understand that dogs may have certain anxieties regarding their surroundings or other people/animals and take great care to make sure they are comfortable and properly cared for.
About: I've spent my life enjoying taking care of dogs and a large variety of animals. I've always been known as an animal person for how much attention and care I provide animals! As of now, I am not working any other jobs and should be available at any times of the day. I should be getting a job somewhat soon unless I find joy out of taking care of these pets! I will follow any and all instructions that the owner of the pets will provide. Ensuring the safety and care for your pets as needed!
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, energy level, and routine, so I take the time to make each walk or visit a positive experience. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs. I schedule my day to ensure each pet gets the time, attention, and exercise they need without feeling rushed. Safety is my top priority. I keep dogs securely leashed during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and pay close attention to their behavior and comfort. After each visit, I provide photo updates and a summary so owners know how their pet is doing.
“Nicole took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. Not only did she walk and care for our dog daily, she communicated regularly and checked in whenever she had questions. She is personable, attentive to details, and a total natural when it comes to caring for pets. We would totally ask Nicole to care for our pet again and highly recommend her to other pet owners.”
“I would be asking her again when I need help. She was wonderful. I had many requests during a one hour visit and she did everything! My baby also seemed she had a good time with her. Thank you!”
“Lindsay was great! She went above and beyond with our cats. Even our normally shy cat seemed to warm up to her! Will definitely request her again when we need to leave our fur babies in someone else's care!”
About: I’m a passionate animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with dogs and providing the personalized care they deserve. I’m patient, trustworthy, and compassionate, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or cuddles, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I can offer weekday walks starting early morning walks 6-8am afternoon walks between 12-2pm and evening walks 6-9pm. I am also available on the weekends and am flexible with your time preference. As each dog is different I know their care is different as well. Currently in my home I have a senior dog that requires medication 2 times a day and a 5month puppy who requires a lot of attention and patience. I understand the challenges and dedication it takes to take care of a pet.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I treat every pet as if they were my own while also focusing on building a real bond and understanding their individual personality. I don’t just provide basic care—I take the time to earn their trust so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’m also very comfortable with senior pets who may need a slower pace, extra patience, medication reminders, gentle walks, and a calm, reassuring presence. I am also happy to reinforce basic training, provide mental stimulation through play and enrichment activities, and accommodate senior pets who may need extra patience and gentle care. I am not here to just take care of your pet while you’re away I’m here to treat it as my own and that requires real bonding and giving it so much love that I would want for my own fur baby . I’m currently not working as why I decided to look into something I love doing. My dream has always been to work with animals as I grew up drawing horses, dogs, and cats ! I always knew it is something I aspired to be around :) I have a dog of my own he is 8 years very friendly but can ask for his own space as he is older although he is obsessed with tiny dog haha! My fur baby is potty trained and does not use a crate. He can be wherever he likes wether it’s the couch the bed or the floor if he prefers. if u crate train your pup I can work with that for you. Caring for a pet in your home I will do as u please me to. If you have a specific routine for your pets I am willing to do whatever it takes to make u feel satisfied and happy that your pet is being cared for in the comfort of your own home ! <3
“Andrea was amazing!! My kitty just loved her, which makes me happy. Andrea sent daily pictures and updates and was reliable and easy to communicate with. I will absolutely book Andrea again!”
About: I started having a genuine love for all animals after I got my two puppies Simba and Solomon. They are four year old energetic, lovable golden retrievers, so I have experience handling medium-large sized dogs. I’m also the designated dog walker for when my cousins decide to go on vacations and leave their dogs behind. I am currently a full time construction project manager. This gives me a flexible schedule to check in on dogs throughout the day as needed. I don’t have a set start or end time for work so it’s very helpful to adjust to different schedules for each dog. I have two golden retrievers who mainly stay in the backyard but also are brought in the house sometimes. They are trained to stay off the furniture and places that we want to keep clean like my kitchen and bedrooms. They know by the tone of my voice of when I’m playing around with them versus when they need to listen to my instructions. I’ve done the same thing for the dogs I’ve watched and even though they’re not as familiar with me, they seem to listen to what I tell them to do.
About: I have about 3 years experience at a no-kill animal rescue shelter. We cared for both dogs and cats, bathing, feeding, walking, cleaning, the works. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, big, small, high energy, low energy, elderly, puppies, bully breeds, and more! I have some extra experience with puppies as my family used to breed Labrador Retrievers. I administered their shots, cleaned up after them, fed them, potty trained, and played as much as they wanted! I love animals and I'm here to help keep your dog happy! I’ve also had pets my entire life, and have trained them all myself! I have school a few days a week, so I can manage walks on weekends and on my off days during the week. I’m just looking for some extra money so I can contribute to the household. I am always one to be willing to do whatever your pet wants to make them happy. I have dogs, cats, and rats at my home, so I have a variety of tactics to be able to keep them entertained and healthy!
“Grisel is wonderful. My very shy 18 year old cat warmed up to her and purred every time she visited. She took very good care of our cat and made our be vacation more relaxing knowing our cat was in good hands. Grisel will be our go to cat sitter from now on. Highly recommended!”

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.

Lissi was great with Uno. She definitely went above and beyond with taking care of Uno. She was very communicative and responded very quickly when we set up the appointments. She took her time to let Uno feel comfortable and sent the best videos and pictures! We were also very happy that she was able to administer a daily pill. We would be happy to book Lissi again.
Hannah was very responsive and sent loads of photos. She asked great questions during our meet and greet and brought treats for my three dogs so they could get familiar with her. She is such a kind and warm presence and I'm looking forward to book her again in the future- and I'm sure my pups are looking forward to it too!
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.
Bronte took a last-minute booking to look after our cat Pacho, which we really appreciated. She had no issues handling his picky eating and daily routine. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We would recommend her without hesitation to other pet parents!
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!
This is my second time booking with Asmita to take care of my two cats, and once again, she provided amazing service. She is very easy to work with, attentive, and always made sure my cats were well taken care of. She regularly refilled their water, followed all of my requests and instructions, and even helped take care of my mail and packages, which I truly appreciated. What I appreciated the most was the constant updates through pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind while traveling and being away from my cats. Most importantly, she spent quality time with them and made them feel comfortable and cared for. I will definitely continue working with Asmita whenever I travel, and her service has always been 100%.
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Cerritos on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 21,058 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cerritos. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cerritos stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
