“This was our first experience with Rover and we don't regret it! Melanie was great with our cats, Will and Judi. She was easy to work with and very responsive. We loved getting her updates every day. Would definitely work with Melanie again :)”
“When my daughter and I had to go out of town, I was very nervous about who was going to take care of our animals. Luckily, I found Sheila and she is the absolute best! She went above and beyond to take care of our fur babies. She sent me photos every day of all of the animals, as well as a nice personalized report each day on how they were doing. That really put my daughter and I at ease while we were gone. She even left us a nice little gift at the end. I cannot recommend Sheila more, and I will absolutely will be using her in the future. Book Sheila - Trust me, you will not regret it!! Thank you Sheila for being so amazing and taking such great care of all of our babies!!”
About: I have a heart for animals and love being with them and taking care of them. It really brings me a lot of joy. I love walking dogs and going on a mini adventure. Playing with them and making sure they have everything they need to keep them happy and healthy. I'm pretty flexible Monday - Saturday for dog walking, dog/cat sitting.Can start around 7am - 9pm most days. I can also do overnights if needed and come back later in the day if needed. I'm reliable and responsible. I will give loving care to your pet just like I would my own dog or cat. I have a heart for animals and they bring me joy. I aim to give that joy right back to them too! I love walking dogs and taking care of fur babies.
“Alex has been so good and attentive with my dogs. I always receive several photos update and my babies look very happy with her. I am sure that I will ask her to visit my dogs again soon.”
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for over 5 years, including seniors, shy rescues, and energetic kittens. I’ve helped foster and rehome multiple cats, and currently care for three of my own. Friends and neighbors often rely on me to feed, clean, and spend quality time with their pets. I’m gentle, attentive, and love learning each animal’s unique personality. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and every interaction with animals feels incredibly healing and meaningful to me. I wish I could welcome even more animals into my life, but since I can’t right now, I treat every pet I care for like family whether they live in my home or yours. Pet care is already part of my daily life. I have three cats at home, including one I'm currently fostering. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and love being around them as much as possible. I provide a calm, pet-friendly space with lots of love and patience. I'm especially experienced with shy or anxious cats and dogs, and I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. My own pets are well socialized, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions you have.
“Hannah was our savior when it came to needing a last minute drop in and she couldn’t have been more perfect. She was super communicative and sent tons of pictures from her time with Arthur. We will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”
“Kimberly was amazing! Just moved to the area and was nervous about finding a new sitter for a cat that recently became a solo cat but Kimberly eased all anxieties. Super communicative, timely, and considerate. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Sonia is just the best. She goes above and beyond, and showed my cats some real love. I will never love leaving my cats behind, but looking forward to the pictures and the updates put me so much at ease, and let me focus on what I was doing without worrying about my cat. She plays, combs, scoops, feeds, waters, and hides little treats so the wayward cat gets to have some stimulation between visits. Sonia is number 1 and will be my go-to for pet sitting.”
“Delia is awesome and very thorough with our pet’s needs! I feel relieved to have someone with great experience look after our precious fur babies. We look forward to booking her again soon.”
About: I grew up with large dogs and cats my entire life. I have embarked in pet/house sitting as of July 2021. I have cared for over 20-30 homes. My longest adventure was in Seattle for two months with two beautiful cats and one small dog. My short adventures are usually over a weekend. I am happy to help be there for your beloved pet while you take some time away. I am a remote worker. I work a 9-6 office job from the comfort of my home. I am available to care for your beloved pets 24/7. I live in a single family home with a fenced backyard in a cul-de-sac, quiet neighborhood which makes walking dogs extremely easy. No pets or kids. I have experience caring for pets/homes. My longest adventure was in Seattle for 2 months with 2 beautiful cats & 1 small dog. Short stays have typically been over a weekend. I comfortable with either.
“We’ve used Rover a couple of times and Giovanni is by far the best. He looked after Floyd for two weekends running and was always on time, taking Floyd on walks and playing with Floyd. The pictures Giovanni sent showed Floyd really enjoyed his time with Giovanni. I will be using Giovanni always going forward and couldn’t recommend him highly enough!!”
About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was five years old. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly believe every creature, big or small, deserves kindness, patience, and love. I take pride in providing thoughtful, reliable care and making sure each pet feels safe and happy while their family is away. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, feeding, or just a little extra attention, I’ll treat your pets like my own. Right now, I’m also working toward a special goal—starting a small savings fund to take my children on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the Galápagos Islands, where we can experience the incredible wildlife together. I currently work full-time, but I’m available weekdays before 9 a.m. and after 3 p.m., as well as all day on Saturdays and Sundays. I’m also available for overnight stays any day of the week. When I care for animals in my clients’ homes, my goal is always to make them feel comfortable, loved, and safe while their family is away. I follow each pet’s regular schedule as closely as possible—feeding them on time, making sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and affection, and keeping their routines consistent. I take time to learn their personalities and any little quirks or preferences they have, whether that means a certain walking route, a favorite toy, or just extra cuddle time on the couch. I keep food and water bowls clean, tidy up after them, and send regular updates so owners can feel at ease knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Sara did a great job taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She even was able to stick to our dogs complicated feeding schedule. I had peace of mind knowing Sara was checking on dog.”
“First time leaving our kitten in someone else’s care and we couldn’t have been happier. Ann was super attentive, thoughtful and kept us thoroughly updated. Most importantly, our Violet was well taken care of and had a great time with her! Ann will be our go-to the next time we need help.”
“Mark was fantastic! My cat loved him so much! I came back and she was very happy. He followed my instructions super well and always sent videos and pictures with his daily update. Definitely will be rebooking!”
About: All my life I have lived with cats and dogs, so I have a lot of experience in taking care of pets and will be happy to help you I love animals very much and thanks to my home work schedule I help other people during their travels. In my profile you can see the calendar and free dates for boarding your pet and I will be happy to help you. Given your care instructions, I promise to take care, play, have fun and send photos so that you know that your pet is in good hands and this stay will be as comfortable as possible for him 🥰

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Duarte
Sheila was awesome from start to finish. She was extremely knowledgeable and wanted to know everything about our cat during the meet & greet. She was able to accommodate his special feeding particularities. We were going on vacation since the first time we adopted him and felt very secure knowing he was with Sheila. She sent us video and picture updates from every visit; we could tell he was getting a lot of love and attention. Highly recommended and we will happily have Sheila over again.
Tiffany is very thoughtful and sweet with my two weirdos! She stayed overtime to make sure they ate properly, also helped me take care of the house when I was gone. Of course she’s very responsive and communicative. Tiffany goes above and beyond and I will definitely ask Tiffany to help again!
Jessie was amazing with my cat. She was incredibly gentle, patient, and caring with my cat. Even during the meet and greet, my cat warmed up to her right away with no adjustment period at all. By the end, my cat absolutely adored her. Super grateful for the thoughtful care and attention during the drop-in visits.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Duarte on Rover is $21.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
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.
