“Kaitlyn was amazing! I looked forward to the photos and notes she left to update me on how the kittens were doing. She got some great photos and it was awesome to see how much fun they were having during play time! It gave me a lot of peace of mind :)”
“She was absolutely amazing with my cat! I was away for a full week and felt completely at ease knowing she was taking care of her. She communicated every single day and sent lots of updates and pictures, which meant so much to me. It was clear my cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will book her again!”
“This is the second time Kylah has taken care of our cats! We’ll continue to book with her as long as she’s willing because our cats seem comfortable and she takes such great care of them. She’s communicative, and even cleaned up a glass one of our cats broke. I’d recommend her for literally any pet care needs you may have.”
“Katelyn was amazing! She was great with my 2 cats and they enjoyed having someone come and spend time with them while I was away! Would recommend her to friends and family!”
“Arielle was wonderful with my two cats. I felt comfortable having her watch them. She is very communicative, very conscientious, and took truly good care of my kitties. I had no worries. Thank you for such a fabulous experience, Arielle!”
“Kati did a phenomenal job looking after our cat Fritz. She was so communicative and sent me a detailed update with every drop in. Kati took the best pictures and cared for him as if he was her own! This was the first time we have left our kitty with someone we didn’t know. I felt so reassured and had no worries about Fritz when we were gone. I couldn’t recommend Kati enough!”
“George is great! Our Koufax was well taken care of. We had to travel when Koufax was going through a time where he needed medication and George was able to administer these. George is young and kind and very dependable. He sent us countless pictures and videos of Koufax. This helped my anxiety over leaving my baby. I think Koufax has found his forever BFF.”
“Not only did she take care of our babies, she helped us in a crisis. The heating in our house went out during our trip. We tried to have someone fix it but they were unable to. During the check in, she worked with us to get the house warmer and set up the space heater with our smart outlets so we could turn the heater off and on remotely. We greatly appreciated her help!”
“I recently boarded my cat with Estefania, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She truly loves animals and cares for them as if they were her own. My cat instantly felt at home under her care, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she goes above and beyond to make pets feel comfortable and safe. I love that she always sends me photos and videos of my baby. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable petsitter!”
About: “Can I pet that dog?” has come out of my mouth more times than I can count. I am an avid dog lover, and love furry friends of all shapes and sizes! My Staffy, Toby, is ten years old and he’s been with me his whole life. I have cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and understand some dogs require a little more patience and attention. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I’m a new mom to a perfect baby boy, and made the decision to leave my job in order to spend precious time with him while he’s little. I was previously a sitter through Rover and decided to reactivate my profile in order to contribute towards providing for my family financially. I love animals and I now have the time to spend caring for your pets while you are away from the home! I am happy to go on walks with your dog, or just spend time with them outside while they do their business. I’m used to a very high energy Staffy who requires lots of play, so I’m ready to provide the same for your dog!
About: I have experience with both cats and dogs I have experience caring for senior cats I can play guitar and sing songs for your pet!! My schedule is pretty open at the moment. I am home late on Mondays and Wednesdays as I am stage managing a theatre production right now. Rehearsals are from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm. Other than that I am available. I will care for your pet as if they’re my own, following any instructions left by you. I will give them lots of love and send you daily pictures so you know they’re doing amazing.
About: I am a lover of animals who has always wanted one of her own, but due to roommate allergies and apartment restrictions I never have. Therefore I'm forced to love on all my friends pets. One of my best friends calls me her dog's support human, because I'm one of the only people she took a liking to immediately and loves when I come over. I grew up with cats and love how loving or temperamental they can be. If you want someone who will absolutely love on your animal like they were their own, I'm your girl. I'm available to house sit, drop ins and walks (weekends mostly or early morning / late a night needs, feedings, etc. I work by the perimeter mall and am remote on Fridays only. I do have some flexibility, but want you to be aware that M-Thu I can only commit to dogs that can go 8 hours without being let out for a break. If you are close to the perimeter mall area I can sneak home during lunch without issue. I'm currently navigating unemployment, so I have all the time in the world to help take care of your lovely pets. From early mornings to late nights, or house sitting, I'm more of a homebody that can be trusted to make sure you don't have to worry while you are away. I'm well versed in understanding the commands dogs adhere to, can help walk, crate, and make sure your pets get the time they need to expend their energy through walks and play time. I follow instructions to a t, and will keep communication open if I have any questions!
“In an absolute emergency, Lullia was able to recover my son’s father’s cat, his dad tragically died with a sudden heart attack and nobody could take the cat, we are in a different state and within 2 hours Lullia was able to locate and take care of of the cat for a while week until we could get there to bring her to our home. The cat was loved and cared for, we couldn’t ask for anything more, Lullia is such an angel for helping in our tone of grief and need! ❤️”
“I love having Karen looking after my cats. She always takes such great care of them. She spends plenty of time at each visit loving on them and making sure everyone is doing well. She even looks under the couch and behind the washer to check on my shy kitty girl. She takes plenty of pictures and always gives me peace of mind that my fur kids are getting great care. I can't recommend her enough.”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fair Oaks is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 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.

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.

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.
