“We absolutely loved having Christine watch our doggies! 🐾 She was so caring, attentive, and treated him like he was her own. She kept us updated with pictures and messages after the visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about him, and we came home to a very happy pup! ❤️ We couldn’t recommend her enough and will definitely be using her again in the future! 🐶💕”
“Kailey made sure to keep in touch and posted many pics and updates on our kitties. Leaving them home was very stressful for us but she helped put our minds at ease. She is very trustworthy and thorough. I am so glad we found someone who is so knowledgeable about cats to watch them.”
“Avery was wonderful! Very kind and attentive. She made the process of being out of town so much less stressful as a pet owner. My dog clearly loved her and I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs pet care!”
“Amanda did a wonderful job taking care of my elderly dog. She is very kind person and a good communicator while I was away. Always let me know how things were going each visit along with pics. I will use her in the future again!”
“I'm so incredibly glad I found Deanna. My cat has a long and complicated medical history, including multiple pills and therapies (even an inhaler). On top of that, I'd never had to leave her home alone before. Needless to say I was WORRIED. But Deanna knows her stuff!!! She took excellent care of my baby and now I never need to be worried about overnight travel again. I will without a doubt rebook house visits with Deanna again (and again and again).”
About: I have cared for pets of all ages and breeds. I am comfortable handling and walking energetic youngsters and senior dogs that require a little more patience I have a full time job that has flexible hours. Some days I am available all day and other days I have to leave for a few hours but I’m always back home for dinner time or walks around the neighborhood I care for all pets as if they were my own. I appreciate their personalities and quirks. I am excited to add more animals to my pet sitting fam!
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life! I have several years shelter experience, and during that time I worked hand-in-hand with veterinarians and dog trainers. I’ve always had a passion for dogs, and have two wonderful fur-babies at home. I’m currently available on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday most of the day, and also on Friday after 4pm. Some Saturday and Sundays can be accommodated upon request but may require additional fees. I love to care for pets, and am flexible to meet each one’s needs! Walks, play-time, enrichment, and lots of attention! I will make sure to adhere to whatever schedule your pup (or kitty) needs!
“I’ve booked Olivia several times for check-in’s and she is very reliable and always comes through for us in a pinch! Great communication and of course Sully loves her - Thanks Olivia!”
“We we're visitors in town and needed someone to let our dogs out while we attended an event. Colleen was prompt and took good care of our senior dogs who needed a little help getting in and out of our RV. She sent pictures both days to let us know they were doing well.”
“Justina did an excellent job caring for our three cats while we were away. She provided frequent updates and amazing photos that gave us peace of mind and showed that our fur babies were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear she took the time to make sure they received plenty of attention and care during each visit. We came home to three happy cats and felt completely confident that they were in good hands while we were gone. We highly recommend Justina and will definitely be booking with her again in the future! 🐾💕”
“Michael came over to our house 2 times a day to feed our 2 Rottie shepherd mixes and let them out to use the bathroom. Him and his family were so great with the dogs! Our dogs are incredibly happy and looked like they had the best time ever in every pic! Michael came over in advance to meet the puppies and get an idea of what we needed, which I really appreciated! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our babies. If you are on the fence about who to select and reading everyone’s reviews like I did, I can say Michael was great and we will be recurrent customers for sure and plan on rebooking him for future travels we have coming up! Thank you so much again Michael and family! Our puppies are so happy!”
About: For 13 years, I helped take care of and watch over our beautiful family dog. She loved to play in the yard and go on long walks around the neighborhood. Since then, I have attained more animal experience by house-sitting a friend's dog and cat for a weekend, as well as walking a dog almost every day for two years. I ran track at the University of Florida, and love fitness of any kind. I snowboard and hike regularly and can't wait for summer! Living in CA, watching or walking a dog is the perfect way to get me outside and exploring. Additionally, I am a good listener and follow instructions very well. Your dog will be loved, walked (or even run!) and overall, be in great hands. I’m currently working from home so I am very flexible when it comes to taking the dog out for potty breaks, walking, and playing with your dog! I have a fenced in backyard, where I often sit, read and eat. It’s perfect for any dogs to hang outside! I’m also close to parks and hiking trails.
About: I’m an animal lover who’s responsible and reliable. I’ve had dogs my whole life, so trust your pets are in good hands. When left with me your pet and I will go for morning runs, afternoon fetch & lots of potty chances. We also have a fenced yard where they can run/play freely. I can bathe/ groom your dog if needed If your pets need any medication I can also give them the medicine I’m experienced in doing so. Currently working from home, so I have plenty of time to play and explore with your fur baby! I'm very energetic, just what your dog needs! I have a fenced yard and friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed as well, I try to keep the environment the same as you would in your home, to cause less anxiety for your pup. I’m all about happy tail wags !
About: As someone who wanted a dog since I was a little kid, friends and family could always rely on me to care for their companion. I’ve had years of dog sitting and boarding, all shapes and sizes, breeds and ages of dogs. I’m excited to meet yours😊 As a teacher with my summers off, I’d love to spend some time with your sweet pups to keep them company while you’re out! I’m free anytime during week days. My dog needs frequent exercise as I’m sure yours does! Throwing ball and short walks are a necessity in our household. I am willing to visit your dog, walk your dog, and throw ball with your dog just as I would my own.
“Kasey is great!!!!! She’s always available and willing to stop in or house sit. My dog can be picky with strangers but Kasey is so good with her and my dog loves her! She’s always very responsible and respectful while staying at my house and sends me daily updates which I greatly appreciate! I trust her and feel comfortable knowing my pets are well cared for while I’m away. Highly recommend!!”
“We cannot thank Amber enough for helping out with our pets while we were away. We have a very nervous puppy so we didn’t want to board him outside our home. Amber came over every day to let them out and feed them. She took our pups on walks and even our shy kitty started creating her at the door when she arrived. We will definitely be using Amber again since she’s so patient and kind to our pets!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 661 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Emerald. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Emerald. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
