“Carrington is one of the most enthusiastic and thorough sitters I've had. She sent lots of pictures, detailed updates, and proactively reached out about any issues or questions that came up. She cares deeply about animals and makes sure she is meeting their needs. 100% recommended! She's awesome.”
About: There hasn’t been a time in my life when I didn’t have an animal by my side. I have extensive, hands-on experience owning, fostering, sitting, and walking all kinds of animals. I truly understand that every pet has a unique personality and set of needs, and I pride myself on stepping in to provide seamless, consistent care—picking up exactly where you left off. Whether your pet needs high-energy play, strict medical/routine management, or just gentle, attentive companionship, I am here to provide peace of mind. Whatever you and your animals need, I'm your girl! I work full-time providing home care for adults with mental health and developmental disabilities. Because my shifts can be non-traditional, clear communication is my absolute priority to ensure your pet's schedule is perfectly maintained. I keep my Rover calendar strictly updated with my work hours so you always know my exact availability before booking. If an 8-hour shift overlaps with your needed care times, we will discuss a seamless game plan beforehand to ensure your pet is fully looked after. Outside of my shift hours, I put focus on pet care. My background makes me highly routine-oriented, meaning I am incredibly reliable when it comes to early morning check-ins, evening walks, or overnight sitting blocks. I believe every pet deserves the perfect fit. If my work schedule ever conflicts with what your pet needs, I will be completely transparent upfront so you can find the best match for them. If we are a match, you can count on absolute reliability, consistent updates, and a dedicated sitter who treats your schedule—and your pet—with total respect! Whether I am caring for your pet in the comfort of your own home or hosting them with me, safety and open communication are my absolute top priorities. I treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect, ensuring a secure, low-stress environment. I strictly follow your household rules, feeding schedules, and medication timelines. Keeping their environment consistent prevents anxiety while you are away.
“Jennifer and her family took excellent care of our cat. It was our first time leaving him with a sitter but drop Off went well and the pictures and daily updates were very comforting. They treated him like one of their own. I think Tux was spoiled and we will not hesitate to book them in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,829 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across East Nicolaus. 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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
