“As long as Alyssa is available, she will always be our go to for our trips! It's apparent that she truly cares about the well being of your animals and respects whatever it is that the instructions are for their care. She really is the best!”

About: I have grown up with Dogs and cats as a child. Also had bunny’s, reptiles, and gerbils for that matter! LOL! I’ve had the same Beautiful Most Awesome cat named Gizmo for 15 years until October of last year when cancer took him from me! I’m deeply saddened still. And please believe me when I say. “It was the hardest thing I ever had to do or went thru”. He was my best bud and I loved saying hello when I got home but when he was gone it has been my hardest goodbye! I now dog/New puppy sit for a good family friend. And love every minuet of it! I also clean and make sure the home is presentable and reasonably ready for their mom to get home and not have to worry about cleaning their mess. Or her own. If client is comfortable with that. Then I would do anything that was asked of me! I’m very punctual and respectful and take into account what the client needs not what I think they need. It’s your family member. It’s your house, all you got to do is talk to me and let me know what you need and I will do my best at providing that service. I also have 1 dog named Bella and 2 cats named Abel and Mozart in our family. Update: Bella past from cancer a few weeks ago, and Mozart passed 2 weeks ago due to kidney disease ! We have suffered so much loss in the past 8 months. We now have Abel and Delilah. Delilah is a 3 month old kitten and Abel is a 1 yr old! Lots of fun! Please check my pets profile to see pics of them. And let me tell you. This is their house. We just live in it! LOL. Abel is new. I adopted him shortly after some grieving time over Gizmo. And he is just like gizmo. Big personality and very much a pain in my rear. But he’s our child. And he’s so beautiful! Than you so much for your time in reading this. And don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I am a partially disabled person. I have a disease that affects my hips and lower spine, and then a disease that we believe. I contracted through my father‘s service in Vietnam, but don’t worry nothing that’s contagious. LOL. Nothing that is Gunna take me out anytime soon but getting out of the house to go take care of fur babies is the best thing for me. It gives me exercise. It gives me purpose and it gives me the ability to give the love that I have to give away to other members of peoples families. I’m truly honest and respectful, and need more purpose in my life to help other’s, my hips and my Parkinson’s disease will not slow me down. I’m young still at 41 and I will continue to do anything and everything I can to help anyone in everyone that I can. I would like to continue helping by doing this service for you and your family.. And NOTHING WILL keep me from doing anything and everything needed in any case of taking care of your home or your furbaby. unfortunately, I can only take care of people’s homes & their fur babies in their home, because of my furbabies. Thank you for understanding. I will keep your home in pristine condition. Cat boxes will be cleaned 2 to 3 times a day unless instructed otherwise. I’m very particular about that for your fur babies and your home will be treated with respect and love and cared for by me, which means I will put my all into anything that you need taken care of.
About: I know what it means to view your pets as your family. I share my home with 2 dogs, 2 cats, and backyard is even shared with 15 chickens! My furry and feathered friends are my world! And we’ve learned a lot together about building a healthy, happy, and cohesive home through trust and training. Other than being a pet parent for the past 15 years, I grew up as the neighborhood pet sitter as a kid/teen. I often did overnight stays for anxious pets, or provided timely medication for sweet seniors. As a pet parent, I truly understand the important of having a sitter you can trust to provide mutually agreed upon services. With me, you have reliable care for all your pet needs. I currently work full time as a hybrid remote worker. Some of my weekday time is spent in office, however I have lots of time spent working at home with flexibility throughout my day to hang out and be nearby to your furry friends. Please be sure to message me about your pet’s needs so we can build a schedule that works for them! I never leave a door open or a fence unlatched and pets are always leashed during walks. As a husky owner, I know what it’s like to have a curious escape artist with a knack for adventure. While training has brought us a long way from his early Houdini days, I maintain the habit of staying vigilant when it comes to pet safety.
“Kassandra was great. She took great care of my boy and kept me updated on his behavior. She was flexible with scheduling when we had a last minute change and gave me great piece of mind while we were away. I’d definitely recommend her!”

About: I love going for long hikes in the park or shorter jaunts in the suburbs. I'm careful about following food and care plans, and after a good walk, I'll make sure they get a snack and water! I am always attentive for when they want affection, need to burn some energy, or go outside! I regularly check for health concerns and how they're doing. The first thing I always check is food and water bowl are clean. If they're free feeding, I'll always make sure it's full. I'm on time with a schedule too! A lot of pets don't like strangers, so I'll give them all the time they need to be comfortable.
About: I am currently going to school to be a vet tech, and have had years of experience working with animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments! I’m comfortable with any dog breed and energy level! I have a super energetic dog at home and I’m confident that if I can handle her, I can handle any dog! I currently work full time at a veterinary office but take an hour long lunch to come home and care for my dog, and yours too! Me and my dog enjoy walks before/after work, playing in our large backyard, and she loves learning new tricks, she is very playful and would love a buddy from time to time! I have a dog at home and have taken care of cats, I’m very comfortable with cleaning up after them and interacting with them. I have a VERY energetic dog so I understand high maintenance pets well! I’m comfortable with crating animals or any other training request the owner may have as well :)

About: I've taken care of pets outside of my own for about five years; some puppies, some elderly dogs, many cats. I'm always excited to spend time with and take care of new pets and ready to provide whatever they need! I have recently graduated from college and have no current conflicts in my schedule. I am available whenever and for however long you need! My pet care routine typically involves a shorter walk in the morning and a long walk or wander through the park in the evening, but I am flexible and can work with what your pet needs! I have a small fenced portion of the yard and a dog friendly home that your pet can roam around in freely, I also live close to the park and will definitely walk the dogs down there to cool off in the creek if they need it!
“He was attentive with my cats, playing with them and making sure they felt comfortable and happy. The pictures helped ease my mind while on vacation. Would recommend to anyone with pets!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I came into this world! Always watching over, loving, and caring for a variety of animals. At one point my family had 6 dogs to take care of and love! I have a very soft spot for elder animals and truly love caring for them! I love to watch and play with cats, and have experience cat sitting (usually 2 young male cats). I am currently a full time student, with a lot of free time throughout the week! I’d love to fill that time walking, playing, or spending time with your pet! I have a big fenced in backyard, front, and side yard that is perfect for playing! I have 2 roommates, both very loving and caring for animals similar to me! The space I live in is not noisy, and the overall space is very quiet. I love to play with animals and keep them active if that is desired by pet owners! I am very close to Bidwell Park which is perfect for long walks and getting energy out!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so being around them has always felt natural to me. I recently graduated from Chico state and currently have two dogs of my own a 6 year old toy poodle and a 5 months old border collie mix. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog or cat with someone else. That’s why I do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and get cuddles, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family, and I’ll always keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I currently work part time at Bath & Body Works and usually only have 2–3 shifts a week, so my schedule is very flexible. When I’m not working, I’m home spending time with my own dogs. This allows me to be available for different drop-off and pick-up times and gives me plenty of time to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I treat every pet like they’re one of my own. My home is a safe, loving environment where pets get lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal routine and help them feel right at home.

“She is awesome! Spends time with my kitties and does a wonderful job. One of my cats loves to see her but the other won’t come out for anyone and just stays under the bed. But she leaves him treats next to the bed for him. You can tell she really loves our cats.”

About: I have worked with all types of animals, breeds and personality types. I’ve done dog walking/pet sitting for about 6 years and absolutely adore it! I am comfortable with any special needs or unique temperaments. (Most of my experience has been off this app, hence my lack of reviews… I am more than happy to provide references individually!) I’m currently available anytime during the day or night, weekdays and weekends. I can do overnights as well. As long as we plan ahead all should be good! I have a lot of time to stay with the pets in their own home so they will have lots of stimulation and attention!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Chico
Kassandra did an awesome job taking care of my cat Nala while I was away camping for 4 days! They were super responsive, communicative, and provided great updates. Nala seemed happy with their company, and I could tell Nala was well taken care of. They went above and beyond to ensure Nala's comfort and happiness. I feel lucky to have found them on Rover and I'll work with Kassandra again in the future. 10/10 - Would recommend!

Sienna did great with my kitties! I absolutely loved receiving pictures while I was away and it looks like they took a liking to her very quickly😊 I was so thankful to be able to leave town for a bit and know that my cats were in good hands, thanks Sienna! 🐾

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.

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.
