“Aaron is awesome. It’s clear from the photos and our interview with our cat post visit that he likes Aaron, they get along nicely and he is well cared for. Arriving back home everything is ship shape. Six stars.”
“Ruixi was wonderful!! Our two kittens were so happy to be able to play with her while we were on a long trip! We knew they were well cared for and loved! She communicated really well with us and gave us updates on our kitties! We would definitely book her again!!!”
“Wyatt took care of Simba in our Christmas break. He was very consistent in timing and followed each of the tasks on time. Simba was in great conditions when we came back from the vacation. We would love to work with Wyatt again in future. Thank you”
“Juliana did an awesome job taking care of our kitties while we were away. The cats seemed happy to see us but not like they missed out on love and affection while we were gone. She left us text descriptions of her visits which was very nice since we didn't have an internet connection while camping.”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and love there fur babies.I worked with dogs that need medical care and strict diets and love to work with every kind. I'll have plenty of time to play love and care for your fur babies! I'm available from Monday through Friday from 8am to 10pm sometimes the weekends I have a fenced yard and plenty of room to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if it is very necessary.
About: I have owned dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes since I was born. Now, I have worked as a vet assistant for 6 years in both general practice and oncology. I have helped with emergencies for all kinds of breeds and done overnight care several times. I also work and volunteer at shelters consistently so I know how to deal with animal stress. I have never met an animal I didn't love no matter its personality and demeanor so I know they are in good hands. I am a college student but have gaps in my day to go back to my apartment and take them out. I would never leave a pet at home for more than 2 hours and live with just my fiance and I also well equipped in pet care, but I will be doing the caregiving. I love every furry friend and it would be a joy rather than a chore to help care for each pet. I am well versed in medication administration, feeding, playtime, small training activities, and more. Depending on the breed or species, I would ensure I am thorough with each pets need and go from there whether thats exercise and play or just chilling on the couch.
“Eva was friendly, creating the booking was easy as she is responsive and accommodated my times. My cat seemed to have enjoyed her stay and was walking around casually when I went to pick her up.”
About: Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile! Now a little bit about me and the care I provide for my clients. I come from a long line of dog lovers. I was raised with pups in the home, and they were a beloved part of our family. Like myself, many family members are in the business of caring for pups in one way or another. I have been professionally taking care of pups on a full-time basis since I retired from teaching in 2020. I have worked with many breeds and specialize in small to medium dogs. I have worked with many pups who are elderly, have anxiety or need medication. Many of my clients are regulars and their pups’ become friends and have fun socializing here. Occasionally, some of my clients prefer to keep their pups separated, particularly if they are elderly, anxious and not social. I have plenty of space and can create secure sections, each with quiet den areas where pups can have their space, yet still be near me and feel safe. In addition, I use soft music to help calm and sooth pups throughout the day. For active dogs that love to play I have a long corridor which is great for indoor fetch! I also have a beautiful path behind my home where we go for long walks. The park is only a short ten-minute walk and I utilize it often. Sometimes I take my pups out for a field trip, and we get a “pup cup” at Starbucks and/or walk around the UCD Arboretum. Safety is my first priority! So, all dogs must be up to date with all their immunizations and flea/tic treatments! If you have any questions, please feel free to text me. I would be happy to set up a meet & greet with you and your fur baby to discuss your needs and any concerns. I have excellent reviews and references and am eager to serve you! Warmly, Ann *** Please note: For whichever Rover sitter, boarder, or walker you select, Rover takes out 20% of their income and 100% of the booking fees. I board pups and other pets full-time. I work/school from home so I have plenty of time to walk, play and snuggle. Sometimes we do doggy field trips. We get pup cups and then go to the arboretum or parks. I work with clients to maintain routnines and make our guests feel safe and at home. Dogs are out and about but are crated during transition times or when I need to run out to the store to keep them safe. We take plenty of pics and videos. Communication is key.
“Sydney is absolutely fantastic! My little pup is very shy around new people but within a day or two, he warmed up to Sydney and felt very comfortable with her. She is super responsive, communicative, and provides great rover cards. I love receiving her updates immediately following her drop ins!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 and have fed, bathed, and loved them since then. I have 3 dogs of my own so I understand the work it takes to care for puppies to senior dogs. I’m majoring in Animal Science at my college, so I’ve definitely made a lifelong commitment to furry friends!! I’m always free to fit in time for animals since I’m unemployed , so whenever I’m needed for a dawn or dusk walk, I’m there! I have 3 dogs at home already, so I would choose not to bring your dog to my home to reduce stress for both your dogs and mine. I am happy to take them on neighbourhood walks or dog park visits
“Susannah was great! She was flexible with our timing, communicative and so kinda! My cats were clearly comfortable with her and she checked in after each visit. I would highly recommend her!”
“Rachel was a great cat sitter!! She sent detailed updates after every drop-in (2 times a day) and was very responsive if we had any other inquiries. We felt extremely comfortable with her taking care of Luna while we were away. Luna warmed up to her very quickly which is always a very good sign. We would love to have Rachel sit for us again. Thank you so much Rachel!!”
“Gina helped my daughter give her very difficult cat medications. She was friendly, competent, patient, and super helpful in brainstorming methods of medicating the cat. We would definitely hire Gina again!”
About: I have loved animals ever since I was young, spending a lot of time taking care of my own, family, and friend’s pets. From high energy play to slow and chill pets I have experienced it all. My personal pet, Luke, is my pride and joy, he loves to play all of the time and even knows sit, stand, follow, high five, and first bump! 🐱 My goal is to make sure your pets feel the love and quality care I make sure to treat my fur baby with. ♥️ I am currently working remotely, thus, I have tons of time to give your pets plenty of love and care! If you need any specifics please let me know, I am willing to work with you and take care of your needs hassle free. I personally have a 7 month old kitten and I believe the care I provide for him highlights the level of care I would provide your pet. While my cat has a very out going and high energy personality, I also love and enjoy pets who are shy or reserved. I can change my care as needed. However, the following is the care I provide my pet. - Litter Box scooping 2x a day - Preparing and Feeding 2x a day - Plenty of Play Time - Training with Treats - Tons of cuddles - Brushing - Teeth brushing daily
About: I've been pet sitting and house sitting for the same family for over 7 years, caring for a variety of pets including a dog, multiple cats (from 1–3 at a time), fish, and even guinea pigs. Over the years, I've gotten used to juggling different routines, temperaments, and care needs. Whether it’s giving meds, keeping up with playtime, or just making sure everyone feels safe and loved while their people are away. I’ve also had dogs my whole life. There’s never been a time I wasn’t living with one, so I’m very comfortable with all kinds of dog personalities, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. What sets me apart is my consistency and genuine love for animals. I take care of pets like they’re my own and always try to make sure they feel calm, cared for, and happy while you're gone. I am a full time student at UC Davis, and only have in person classes twice a week. This means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pets the attention, care, and company they deserve. Whether it’s for daily visits, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep everything as close to their usual routine as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure to follow any specific instructions you leave, whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or favorite walking routes. I’m respectful of your home, clean up after myself and the pets, and always double-check doors, gates, and anything safety-related before leaving. I also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your pets are happy and in good hands. I treat every animal like they’re my own and every home with the same respect I’d want for mine.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Davis is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Davis
Ruixi was wonderful!! Our two kittens were so happy to be able to play with her while we were on a long trip! We knew they were well cared for and loved! She communicated really well with us and gave us updates on our kitties! We would definitely book her again!!!
Allison watched over Luna for me this week and did a wonderful job. All directions were followed and done well. Luna opened up pretty quickly and i can tell she must have felt very comfortable with Allison. Will definitely want to have her watch Luna while I’m away again.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Dina! Time and time again, she has gone above and beyond to accommodate our needs and make things work with her schedule. She is incredibly dependable, flexible, and genuinely caring. On one occasion, she even carried cat litter up three flights of stairs because they needed it, something she absolutely didn’t have to do, but did without hesitation. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our cats are in the hands of someone who truly cares about their comfort and well-being. Thank you Dina!!!!
We left our two cats with Jenna for two weeks, and during that time she was extremely attentive, communicative, and caring. She was sweet and gentle, and made them safe and comfortable while we were gone. Not only that, but she sent photos of our babies every day! Thank you so much, Jenna, for keeping our kitties safe and happy!!
Katelyn was absolutely incredible with my two cats! She did a fantastic job feeding and playing with them, and she sent tons of wonderful photo updates that totally put my mind at ease. On top of that, one of my kitties had a messy bathroom accident, and she went above and beyond to clean everything up.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Davis is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $36 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.

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.
