About: I've been pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was 10 years old and have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm also a Registered Veterinary Technician with over six years of experience in veterinary medicine. My background allows me to confidently care for senior pets, puppies and kittens, administer medications, recognize changes in a pet's health or behavior, and provide compassionate, low-stress care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and intentionally make time for in my daily routine. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pets with the attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship they deserve. Whether it's sticking to their normal routine, giving medications, or simply spending quality time with them, I'm committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I'll follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. As a Registered Veterinary Technician, I'm trained to recognize changes in a pet's health or behavior and will keep you updated if I have any concerns. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it, while making sure your pets receive the same love and attention I would give my own.
“Emiliano is very professional, friendly and easy to work with. My pup loves having out with him. It brings us a lot of peace of mind leaving our puppy with him. Highly recommend.”
About: I've been around animals my entire life and have always been comfortable caring for them. I grew up with cats and have experience feeding, playing with, and caring for them throughout my life. I've also helped neighbors by checking in on their pets while they were away. Although I don't have professional pet care experience yet, I'm responsible, patient, and committed to following each pet owner's instructions to make sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I'm excited to provide loving care for both cats and dogs. I am currently a university student and have a very flexible schedule, especially during the summer months when I am not taking classes. This allows me plenty of availability throughout the week for pet care services. I can plan my day around visits, walks, check-ins, and can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening care depending on the client's needs. Although I don't have formal professional experience in pet care, I've cared for cats my whole life and understand their behavior, needs, and comfort. I also helped a neighbor by checking in on her cat whenever she was away. I'm responsible, attentive, and genuinely love being around animals
“An excellent, trustworthy and go the extra mile pet sitter. Made sure my cats were happy, had some play time and most importantly, fed and litter kept clean. Would definitely recommend!!”
About: I am an owner of 5 pets. Two large breed dogs and three cats, all ranging between the ages of 1year-10 years old! Grew up surrounded by animals and love making sure they are taken care of. I currently work full time but build my own schedule. I am able to adjust times and flex to what’s needed. I also care for five animals at home so my life revolves around animal care. I have multiple animals at home with fenced in yard. I am comfortable feeding, walking and cleaning up after animals. I am not able to care for your animals at my home.
“James was awesome! Very professional and great about uploading pictures/descriptions of the activities for the day. Always on a great time schedule as well. Would definitely rebook!”
About: I love all pets. I especially love being active and running and will take my friend’s dog to the local 5k when she’s available. I do part time online tutoring and some in person extracurricular teaching. This gives me time between sessions to check in on your pets frequently. I am very careful and will follow any special instructions for caring for your pet extremely closely. I love pets and my priority is always the pet’s comfort.
“Nikka was great with my dog Mabel! Very communicative and friendly. She also followed her care instructions exactly and gave lots of updates. Would definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Marisela has been great with our dog Mochi. We usually have her come by for 30 minute drop ins while we are in office or out for extended periods in the day. Communication is great and she always comes as scheduled and provides several photos. Would highly recommend her!”
“Our cats were well-cared for while we were away and were in good spirits when we returned. K Zin gave us great updates of their status and adorable pictures to let us know they were doing well.”
“Simonee did a great job taking care of my fur babies! I have three of them to take care of, so appreciated her being able to follow through on the care instructions. I could tell she loves animals based on our meet and greet :), so knew they were in good hands.”
“Again, Perry did an amazing job walking my 2.5 year old American Eskimo. Ocean has a handful of special monitoring needs due to a chronic GI condition and his playful interest in exploring, if not trying to consume, anything. Perry is extremely conscienscious and is very alert to Ocean's behaviors. Perry is also wonderful at making sure my dog is properly back in his kennel area when he drops off and leaves. Ocean is also over the top happy and excited the moment he realizes Perry is coming to walk and play with him. Its been really wonderful and a relief to know I have Perry onboard to walk and care for my boy.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences and follow your care instructions closely. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care and give pet parents peace of mind with regular updates and photos. I’m currently out of work, so my time and efforts can be fully dedicated to caring for your pet any day and any time. I treat every home with respect and every animal like family. You’ll receive reliable communication, regular updates, and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, providing not just food and generalized needs-based care, but companionship, enrichment, and plenty of attention based on their individual needs.

Drop-ins before 11am could be made possible for Wed-Sat I do not offer pet care in my own home but I am able to do drop-ins or walks wherever the animal is located! I have my drivers license as well.

Blessy was great! Super communicative before, after and during the week she looked after my cat. She even did some light cleaning since the litter tends to track so I didn’t come home to cat litter everywhere. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!
Christal was great with Koda! I always stress leaving him behind when I travel, but Christal was able to keep my well informed with detailed updates, photos, and videos of koda throughout the booking! Koda was in a really great mood when I came back!! Would recommend Christal!
So appreciated Simonee’s professionalism and warmth toward our elderly cat. Simonee was so communicative, like when our automatic feeder wasn’t working, and also helpful with rolling our trash bins out on garbage day. We really trust her and would highly recommend her.
Vlada was pleasant and easy to work with! She responded promptly and was up for the challenge of taking care of our senior gentleman feline who requires medication and supplements with his feeding. She was happy to connect on a video chat prior to the sitting. We recommend her and would book with her again!
We engaged Chenyang for several drop-in visits to take care of our cats. She is very responsible, communicative, and punctual. She’s detail-oriented and took photos of her work to assure us that everything was in order. She’s very kind and gentle to pets and our cats warmed up to her very quickly. We would definitely work with her next time!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Colma on Rover is $30.97 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,536 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Colma. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
