“Terry was an awesome pet sitter for my kitty! She is super nice, we met before she took care of my kitty while I was gone camping for a couple of days. She sent me pictures, and my kitty really loved her! I recommend her highly, and will definitely book her again. Thank you, Terry!”

About: I’ve dog sat for about 10 different families over the past 10 years. From small dogs like chihuahuas to large breeds like mastiffs. I also watched the most interesting bengal cat! For many years I babysat children and cared for pets simultaneously. I was raised in an animal loving family, most nights I had a dog at the foot of my bed or a cat underneath it. I understand that pets are family and no one knows your pet like you. I am detail oriented and high energy. I’m am currently a student at Cal Poly Humboldt. I am a child development major. I took a step back from my work with early education to finish a few core classes. This makes my schedule quite open! I have a fully fenced yard with an extra high fence. It is mostly grass with small concrete pathway. I am never in school longer than 3 hours. I live in a quiet, pet friendly neighborhood.

About: Hello! My name is Haley Rodden and I’m an experienced house/pet sitter and dog walker. My partner Brandon and I can board dogs and cats at our beautiful home with a fenced backyard. I can also do check ins, walks, or spend the night. I have experience with dogs, cats, chickens, and fish and love animals! I would be happy to provide references. I’m currently an assistant teacher at Glen Paul from 8:30 to 3. I have lots of breaks throughout the year though and will give your pet all the attention it needs before and after work. Whatever service I am providing I will treat your pet like family and spoil them as much as possible! I want them to be happy and comfortable.

“Jackie has been so great with my shy girl! I work long shifts and have so appreciated knowing she’s getting some fresh air and love on the days I have to be away. Jackie has shown up consistently, sending me little photos and updates every day that’s she’s stopped by. We’re lucky to have found her!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine heart, deep responsibility, and detail oriented focus I bring to caring for your beloved pets and home. I treat every animal like family, whether guiding energetic puppies, providing gentle, patient senior dog care, comforting cozy cats, or tending to sweet small critters of all kinds. My background across diverse, fast-paced roles has made me inherently organized, proactive, and exceptionally attentive to detail. You can enjoy complete peace of mind knowing that I think through every single step from maintaining your pet’s exact daily routine to ensuring your doors, windows, and gates are double checked, locked, and fully secure. I take pride in providing reliable, loving attention customized to your pet’s unique personality while treating your sanctuary with total respect. With frequent photo updates and clear communication, I offer top tier care, safety, and heartfelt affection so you can be away without worry. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I work Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, which leaves my weekends completely open for pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks. Having used Rover myself while traveling, I know firsthand how vital it is to have a safe, dependable person to care for your pets, especially critters who get stressed when traveling and away from home. I love being able to support my community, give owners total peace of mind, and build lifelong bonds with sweet furry friends and their families. While in a client's home, my top priority is keeping your pet's routine consistent, safe, and stress free. I maintain their exact feeding, walking, and medication schedules while making sure they get plenty of affection, play, and gentle attention. I treat your home with the utmost respect always double-checking that doors, windows, and gates are fully locked and secure before leaving. From fresh water and clean litter boxes to daily photo updates, I ensure your pets stay happy in their comfortable environment while giving you total peace of mind.

Bailey was the perfect person to care for our kitties while we were on an extended trip abroad. She was absolutely dependable, caring, and careful in her daily care. When we ran into communication issues outside the US, she was patient and totally trustworthy to continue the service with our cats. We cannot say how much we appreciate her help. Our cats were calm and well-cared for. Bailey has been wonderful!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Eureka

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Eureka is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 36 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Eureka. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Eureka. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 87% 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 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.
