About: Hi! I’m Linda, a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for providing compassionate, reliable care. Growing up with dogs, cats, and bunnies all my life, I understand the unique personalities, routines, and needs of pets big and small. My background working in senior care and being a big sister to two younger siblings has given me a natural instinct for patience, attention to detail, and safety. Whether your furry family member needs gentle company, active play, or meticulous daily care, you can rest easy knowing they are in gentle, experienced hands! I’m available mornings 7:30am until 10:30am and late afternoon/nights 7:30pm-10:00pm and all day Tuesday/Wednesday , we can work on your time ! I focus on keeping your pets as comfortable as possible by sticking closely to their normal daily routines. During my visits, I handle feeding, fresh water refills, litter box scooping, cage or habitat maintenance, exercise, and plenty of personalized attention or play. Because I currently care for five cats at home and have looked after various types of animals throughout my life—including dogs, bunnies, and cats—I am deeply familiar with managing different temperaments, dietary needs, and handling subtle changes in pet behavior. I also ensure your home remains safe, secure, and clean while you’re away
About: I volunteer at the Stockton Animal Shelter. Also, I have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix so I’m used to smaller animals. My dog is 14-16 so he’s very old and is becoming more immobile and blind. I’m used to feeding him and helping him around the house. I’m currently working part time so most I’m completely free on Fridays and the weekend. Also I have plenty of time on Tuesdays and Thursdays as half days. I’m very respectful in others space. I will be very attentive to the rules that you lay out because you know your pet best
“Daniella did a fantastic job with Stark !! She has been responsive and on time every time. She kept up with the updates and stayed in touch with me throughout the visits. Great to have her as the sitter for my cat and I will rebook her again next time I need”
“Celestine did a great job taking care of my cat! She went above and beyond. I was very pleased to see how well things went with the Rover check ins/cards and with returning to find that my cat was perfectly okay. Lastly, I just wanted to say she was very friendly to work with, followed the instructions well, and knows how to take care of cats very well. I would highly recommend her services.”
About: Hi! My name is Danica and I am so lucky to have the opportunity to care for your loved ones when needed. I have loved watching over and building relationships with all furry friends since I was a child. My grandparents taught me all there is to making sure our furry friends — ranging from dogs and cats to chicken and bunnies — were well loved during their lives. I’ve had the great pleasure of overnight dog sitting and checking in on friends and families animals, and I believe I can provide the same love and passion for animals to yours! I am a full-time college counselor working from home! I enjoy my breaks and walks in between student calls, so I believe my time and gaps during the day can best fit your schedule. I am flexible with where I work, so I don’t mind keeping your animal company for a few hours before their owners come home :) I would describe myself as a gentle animal lover — making sure your pet has all their needs met and more. I will always honor your needs as the pet owners, and will communicate with you the details of the pet care I provide throughout our time together. I am open to your own knowledge for what is best for your pet and will communicate any suggestions or new activities your pet and I can do!
“She was really good about communicating any issues with the cats. The cats were very relaxed and showed no signs of stress from our being away. She also got some great pictures of the cats.”
“Syndney did an awesome job with my fur babies. One of my cats has diabetes and needs his insulin twice a day and she did that with no problem. She was a quick learner and was always on time. Definitely be rescheduling her again when the time is needed. ;)”
“Elizabeth is amazing! My dogs and cat absolutely loved her (even the dog who is usually super weary with strangers!) and she was responsive, communicative and super flexible with our schedule. Definitely will be rebooking with her again!”
“This was our second time booking Diana and we had such a pleasant experience once again! She looked after our kitty Yumi so well and made her comfortable and treated our home as her own and kept it so well maintained. Will happily rebook her the next time we need a pet sitter again :)”
About: Raised in an animal-filled home and currently caring for my own household of four dogs, four cats, and over 20 reptiles, providing attentive, specialized pet care is second nature to me. My extensive hands-on experience spans multi-pet management, exotic habitat care, and handling medically complex needs, including precise oral medications, strict routines, and tailored support for senior or anxious pets. As a dedicated pet parent myself, I know how critical it is to find someone you can truly trust with your family members and I promise to treat and love your pets with the exact same devotion, patience, and care as my own while you are away. As a full-time teacher, my schedule is structured and highly reliable. I am available after school hours on weekdays, have wide-open availability on weekends, and offer flexible scheduling during school breaks and holidays. I specialize in traveling to your home so your pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Being an educator, I am exceptionally detail-oriented, trustworthy, and precise when following your established home routines and care instructions. Friends frequently entrust me with keys to their homes for pet sitting because they know I prioritize safety, security, and cleanliness above all else.

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind! I have grown up with dogs and cats ever since I was a kid. We always had around 3 or 4 dogs in the house while I was growing up. Big or small, old or young it doesn’t matter! I can accommodate to your pets needs such as pills/medications, eye or ear drops.

“Hailie did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away for over a week with daily visits and updates—we loved getting photos every day. She was always prompt and easy to communicate with as well. We plan to reach out to Hailie for future pet sitting!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Weilin! I needed a pet sitter for a recent out of town trip and it was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service. Weilin was nice enough to come for a meet & greet, and even when my cat was temperamental and hissed, she was so patient and kind with her, so I knew she was the perfect choice. Weilin gave great updates and photos, and she was fast & responsive when I messaged her with questions. I am so relieved to find someone reliable to watch my kitty- I will definitely be using her again! Thanks Weilin!”
“Savanna was a fantastic sitter for our cat Milo! We appreciate her work with cat rescues and the experience shows. Milo is a foster cat who is more on the mellow side, and Savanna and her partner were very attentive to his needs and anxiousness being in a new place with her cats. We received text updates and photos to let us know how he was doing. I would not hesitate to have Savanna take care of our pets again.”
“Gloria is the most dedicated and hard working ladies I have met in along time that takes her job seriously!!! I have a German Rottweiler and she would come and visit him to get to know him way before she even took care of Him!!! I cannot even find the words to express my gratitude to this wonderful lady!!!! Thank you for taking such good care of my boy!!!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,082 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gillis. 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 Gillis. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
