“Minh was awesome and I will absolutely be booking her again! Ahead of the house visit she did a meet and greet with Rey and she asked very thoughtful questions. Her thoroughness put my helicopter mom brain at ease. She was prompt, sent pics and was an excellent communicator. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both cats and dogs. For the past two years, I’ve been the proud pet parent of my rescue cat, Duckie. Since adopting her, I’ve learned how important patience, routine, and attentive care are, and I’m committed to making sure she stays happy, healthy, and loved every day. I’ve also helped care for my friends’ pets over the years. I regularly walked a friend’s poodle, making sure he got plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. In addition, I’ve house sat for friends with cats, caring for their daily routines by feeding them, refreshing their water, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and giving them lots of affection while their owners were away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home with a flexible schedule. Since I can work from just about anywhere with my laptop, I’m able to provide attentive care throughout the day while maintaining my work responsibilities. This flexibility also makes weekday house sitting a great option for me. On weekends, I’m available for both full-day and part-time care, giving me even more time to focus on your pet’s needs, whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. My goal is to make the process as seamless and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. I understand that every family has a different schedule, so I’m happy to work with you to find a care plan that fits your routine while making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for every step of the way. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My priority is to provide reliable, attentive care while maintaining your pet’s normal routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Before each visit or house sit, I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, preferences, and any special care instructions. Whether your pet needs medication, a bath, extra exercise, playtime, or simply a calm companion, I’ll follow your care plan closely and make sure their needs are met with patience and care. I’m attentive to the little details that can make a big difference in your pet’s well-being. I’ll keep an eye on their appetite, water intake, energy level, bathroom habits, and overall behavior, and I’ll communicate any changes or concerns right away. I believe consistent updates, photos, and open communication help give pet parents peace of mind, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own—keeping it clean, secure, and following any household instructions you’ve provided. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, healthy pet and the confidence that they received thoughtful, dependable care every step of the way.
“Very grateful for Desiree dropping in even when its last minute and being such a great caretaker! I appreciate the love she clearly has for animals and sweet notes about time spent with my fur baby 🥰”
“Stephanie is amazing. Our kitties are always so well-cared for, their areas and litter box are exceptionally clean when we come home. Will continue to book her for sitting whenever we’re out of town. Can’t recommend her highly enough! Oh, and she takes amazing photos and videos :)”
About: i’m lauren! im new to los angeles, but not new to pet sitting! ive spent the last 5 years taking care of animals in Phoenix and owning my own senior dog for a short time. I work from home and I can usually spend a lot of time with your animals while they’re in my care and it’s easy for me to step out to go on walks. However, I get sent on work trips quite a bit so my schedule works best for short, 3-5 day pet-sitting gigs. I work from home full time so I can cater to your pets routine whether it’s morning walks, midday treats, or potty breaks every few hours. I love to send plenty of photos and updates. I’m also very clean and respectful of other people’s spaces if I’m visiting your home to watch your animal
“I feel very good about having hired Sabrina for drop-in visits to care for my two cats while I was out of town. Sabrina was professional, reliable, helpful and friendly. She was responsible in performing the necessary tasks. The photos I received put my mind at ease that my cats were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Sabrina and would utilize her services again. Thank you Sabrina!”
“Teresa was excellent and took VERY good care of my pup. I'm very grateful for the excellent service Teresa provided and would recommend to anyone anytime! Thank you again!”
“Christopher is the best!! He took on a last minute request and was super communicative. I felt that our cat was in great hands, and upon our return she didn’t display any of her separation anxiety signs which means she was definitely happy with him as a surrogate pet parent. Thank you so much again!!”
“KC has taken care of Poki for us twice. Although Poki is usually stand-off-ish, she warmed up to him very quickly. KC is very reliable, accommodating, friendly, and professional.”
“Rebekah was great! She sent detailed updates, photos and videos while I was away. My cars are usually scared of strangers but they warmed up to her after only one day! Have already booked her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve regularly pet-sat for friends and family, fostered animals, and provided attentive care for pets of all ages. I’m comfortable administering medications and following specific routines to ensure pets feel safe and well cared for. I’m also able to stay multiple days with pets when needed. I currently have a 15-year-old dog, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and experienced with senior pet care. I treat every animal like my own and prioritize comfort, consistency, and love. I work fully remote, which allows me to be flexible with my location and spend plenty of time with the pets I’m caring for as long as I have internet access. My job isn’t overly demanding, so I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, including feeding, walks or playtime, medication, and companionship. This flexibility allows me to easily stay multiple days with pets and maintain their normal routines while their owners are away. I care for pets by prioritizing consistency, comfort, and attention to their individual needs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks or playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment by giving them plenty of companionship, monitoring their behavior and health, and adjusting care as needed. With my own senior dog, I’m especially attentive to signs of discomfort or changes in behavior, and I bring that same level of patience and care to every pet I look after.
“Lee was very nice. He took good care of our cat Bjorn for 4 days every morning. He updated us with images, played with him and cleaned his litter. He met with us prior to our booking at our convenience which was very helpful. We recommend Lee and will I’m sure book him in the future when we have to leave our little monster :)!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Echo Park
Desiree takes amazing care of my cats and I am so grateful to have found her on Rover. My kitties are so comfortable with her and she always send me pics and a message to check in and let me know how they are. It is a blessing to be able to go away knowing my cats are in the best of care with her.
Rachael is the absolute BEST! I feel so grateful that we found her. I'd call her my cat’s bestie, and honestly I think my cat, Lucy, has grown from having Rachael in her life. We were away for a longer trip this time, and I came home feeling like Lucy hadn’t just been “looked after” — she had been loved, played with, engaged with, and genuinely nurtured. She seems more confident and playful, and I really believe all of that attention and interaction was good for her. Rachael has a wonderful way of connecting with Lucy and bringing out more of her personality. Rachael is also the best at communicating. I loved getting her updates and always knew how Lucy was doing. We even had some unexpected complications with access to our building while we were away, and Rachael was so steady and flexible through all of it. I never once worried about her reliability or about Lucy being in good hands. It is SUCH a gift to travel and know that someone you completely trust is caring for your animal — and even more of a gift to come home feeling like your cat had a wonderful experience too. I can’t recommend Rachael highly enough.
Mackenzie is the consummate cat pro (and lover)! Our cats took to her immediately and seemed very happy and relaxed. She’s also a great communicator so we never had to worry about whether things (litter, feeding, photos) were happening properly or on time while we were away. We’re so happy we found her!
It was wonderful having Brooke as our cat sitter! She did a meet-and-greet with the kitties ahead of time and got to know their personalities/quirks. She was very detailed-oriented and gave us updates and photos each day. Your pets will be in good hands
I was able to relax on my trip knowing that Cassidy was taking care of my cat Max. She was so attentive and I could tell from all the photos she sent that max was very happy to have her there. I often feel a lot of stress about leaving my cat and I was just able to relax and look at cute photos Cassidy sent the whole time. I even had an issue with my door entry code being weird and she contacted me right away, was very communicative, and we figured it out. I would 100% recommend! Thank you Cassidy!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Echo Park on Rover is $26.64 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Echo Park. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
