“Melissa was absolutely amazing! Our dog loved her! We appreciated the pictures she sent while we were away. I would recommend Melissa to everyone she provided amazing care and a great experience!”
“Due to no fault of his own, we learned through this experience that apparently my kitties would rather bond with females. Yet, Amir pulled through, going far and beyond to find that bond. He, on his own, bought toys and treats, trying to coax them out of their shells. He searched our house through and through trying to find our one kitty, who insisted on hiding the entire time he was in our home. If, and when, you are in a situation where you have to leave your animals in the hands of another - for us, this meant traveling of state and really needing someone we could trust to be our best replacements - Amir is your guy! If, and when, we are in need again, we will be calling him”
“Egle is an absolute joy to work with. She has truly enjoyed spending time with our pups. She leaves well written descriptions of her visits. She is attentive and communicative. I would trust her with my pups anytime, with no worries. I highly recommend her.”
“Marissa was great. We only had her for a couple of days for drop by visits, but she was accommodating and amenable. She played with the one of our cats that wanted to and sent cute pictures each visit. She brought in the mail and pulled in the garbage cans. Really appreciated her flexibility would easily book her again when we need someone for our 2 cats.”
“Kat was fantastic with my cat, forest. She was caring, kind, and communicative. I felt confident the entire time that forest would be well taken care of. I will go back to Kat in the future! Thank you!”
“Savannah was so good with our two cats and then we added a crazy kitten which she was amazing with! Kept them all from eating each other’s food and played games with them. Sure they will be bored with just us now.”
“Kaylin drove back to my house to give my cat medicine when we decided (from afar and well after the booking ended) that she needed it. I always appreciate how thorough she is and trust her to take care of my kitties!”
“Maya was communicative, punctual and professional. My kitties and apartment were both well cared for. I will book with her again without hesitation.”
“Highly recommend Kristy! Booked for drop-in with less than a weeks notice & Kristy replied promptly and cheerfully. Professional, very kind, trustworthy and my pup absolutely adored her. He looked so happy in all her sweet photos. Was our first time with Kristy and we’re looking forward soon to our next booking!”
“ChristyLynn was able to accommodate a last minute drop in request. She was great with the dogs, they sense right away if someone is a dog person and she definitely is. She asked if it was ok for her girls to come for an evening visit and the dogs loved that. Great communication and appreciated the pics. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I've been caring for pets for over 11 years and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and needs. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, multi-dog households, and pets who may need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is always to provide safe, compassionate care so pet parents can have peace of mind while they're away. I currently have availability for walks and drop-in visits in the afternoons and evenings, with additional flexibility on certain days. I strive to provide dependable care and will always communicate promptly regarding scheduling and updates. Safety is my top priority. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and exercise needs. I take time to build trust with every animal and always use secure leashes and harnesses during walks. In my home, pets are supervised and introduced thoughtfully based on temperament and comfort level. I believe in treating every pet like a member of the family.
“Lynden and Timothy have been taking my pups out for potty breaks on days I work late. They’ve been fantastic and always take a few cute pics and leave a note.”
“Kirby was amazing I absolutely would recommend her! This is my first time using Rover - I needed a couple of drop in visits for my cat while out of town. Kirby gave me an update on each visit and sent lots of photos (which all looked great!). So glad he could stay at home where he's most comfortable. I definitely would request Kirby again!”
About: I've had the privilege of caring for dogs for over a decade. I have experience administering medication, walking, cleaning and playing with puppies and middle age dogs. I am a full time artist with quite an open and flexible schedule. I am available during the day during the week and flexible during weekends. I love playing and spending time with my own cat, catering to her needs and spending time together. I have no issue crating other's dogs if asked.
“Emily was amazing! Excellent updates and timely check-ins. My boy was happy and healthy as can be when I got home. It was very clear that he was well taken care of. Thank you so much!”
“Michelle is great with our little challenging kitty. He really loves her and their lap time! She’s great about sending us pictures, too, which we really appreciate when we are far away!”
“What great dog sitters! Couldn't have been happier with the care, attention, and love my dog received while we were gone. Went above and beyond the call of duty. We feel very lucky to have found them!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Happy Valley
Joss is a fantastic cat sitter. She was able to bond quickly with our shy cat which is not easy to do. She left thorough reports during each visit and sent many photos which we love!! Her genuine interest and connection with cats came through when meeting her and in her communications. I highly recommend her for your cat sitting needs!!
I cannot recommend Angela enough. Our cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes and requires blood sugar checks and insulin injections. Angela handled this perfectly and provided thorough updates on his status. She came over to learn how to care for him and took detailed notes. Angela is very professional and clearly has a deep love for animals. She is a pleasure to work with. Look no further— you’ve found your pet care angel!
Marissa was great. We only had her for a couple of days for drop by visits, but she was accommodating and amenable. She played with the one of our cats that wanted to and sent cute pictures each visit. She brought in the mail and pulled in the garbage cans. Really appreciated her flexibility would easily book her again when we need someone for our 2 cats.
Rob dropped in on my two cats for a week. He proved to be intuitive and thorough with the feeding and litter box cleanings. He made friends easily with my cats, even with the younger, more skittish one. She has been known to hide for at least a week with other caregivers, but warmed to Rob in a couple of days. i would not hesitate to recommend Rob for any pet care needs.
We had a last minute opportunity to go out of town and were so grateful to find Chelsea to take care of our two cats! She was prompt, cared about their preferences and needs, communicated well, and even brought in our packages. We'd recommend Chelsea and will definitely reach out to her next time we are going out of town!
I've had Janell sit for my kitties a number of times now. She is great and I will continue booking with her. When I get home the cats have been cared for (they aren't desperate for attention), any kitty messes have been cleaned up, the boxes are clean, cats have food and water, the house is clean, mail has been brought in and she has communicated about her visits while I was gone. Great sitter!
Ryleigh was amazing and took great care of my two cats while I was out of town for a little over two weeks. My flight ended up getting cancelled and moved to the next morning. Ryleigh was more than happy to check in on my kitties for an additional night, with last minute notice. I received photos every day of my little boys, they got play time in, and she was kind enough to also water my plants once a week. Thank you so much, Ryleigh, you’re the best!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Happy Valley on Rover is $22.34 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,441 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Happy Valley. 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 Happy Valley. On Rover:
- 96% 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.
