“We just worked with Susan for the first time, and we won't use anyone else whenever she is available. She did a great job with our two cats during an overnight stay on short notice. The cats can be a challenge because one is a diabetic needing insulin injections, and the other is a very picky eater. Both cats were calm and happy when we came home, and the house was in perfect order. All of our instructions were followed perfectly, except Susan stayed later than we had asked because she wanted to be sure the cats were safe and we got home on time despite bad weather. We recommend Susan very, very highly.”
“Chloe did a great job taking care of my furbabies! I am a super helicopter pet parent who hates leaving her pets, so I have very high standards. Since we work from home, our pets are used to having someone with them 24/7 and are very socialized, so I didn't want them feeling lonely. Chloe completely understood and stayed in our house for over 2 weeks to take care of the little ones. She sent regular photo updates that showed her playing with the cats and providing enrichment for them. The regular check-ins were so comforting to me! She also left the house clean and tidy for us to come home to. She responded promptly any time I texted her, and was extremely courteous. All in all, it was a great experience and we will definitely book Chloe again.”
“Jordan took fantastic care of our 3 cats! She communicated daily with pictures and updates about how they were doing and how they were adjusting to her house sitting. She also tidied up before we got back which relieved a lot of stress! We would definitely recommend Jordan for pet and house sitting!”
“Hands down the best experience so far with Rover. Victoria was exceptional. She was recommended to me and let this be my recommendation to anyone desiring drop-in visits. Her updates were thorough and detailed. Even the pictures had captions added to make it fun and informative. The love and care she had for our dogs and respect for us and our home was evident.”
“Susan did such an amazing job with my old dog. She took her on a walk and spent time loving on her. All of the pictures my dog was smiling. She only smiles with people she likes.”
“Marisa was fantastic. Easy to initiate booking and very responsive. Took notes during my requested initial visit and remembered everything. Sent detailed updates and photos. Made it so easy to be away and not worry.”
“WOW! 5 STARS and then some! We couldn't be more pleased. And for the record, I'm an "A-type" which is something I don't readily share but for a review involving the care of my "cat child" George, it feels more than appropriate. JoAnn was a hit on all levels. Smart, Kind, Fun, and delivering ATTENTION TO DETAIL at every turn! JoAnn's daily video updates with snippets of play time made our time away all the better and reduced anxiety around leaving George at home. THANK YOU JoANN! Dave (Rancho Mirage, CA)”
About: KEEPING FEES LOW... SO YOUR PET CARE DOESN'T COST AS MUCH AS YOUR VACATION! Lifelong Animal Expert & US Champion Equestrian – Elite Care for Your Pups! Hi, I’m Rich, animals have been a central focus of my entire life. Growing up on a farm, I learned the deep responsibility of animal care from a very young age. This foundational passion led me to a competitive career as a US Champion Equestrian, a journey that taught me how to read animal behavior, anticipate needs, and maintain absolute patience under pressure. Beyond my time in the arena, I have extensive hands-on medical exposure. I spent years assisting both large and small animal veterinarians in New York on everything from routine check-ups to intense, fast-paced emergency calls. Because of this, you can rest easy knowing I am highly observant, calm in emergencies, and fully capable of handling pets with specialized health or behavioral needs. On a personal note, I’ve loved and owned dogs since I was 8 years old. Today, I am the proud pet parent of two rescued terrier pups, so I deeply understand the unique patience, structure, and endless affection that rescue dogs need to feel safe and happy. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk, meticulous medical attention, or just a calm and confident presence while you are away, I will treat them with the exact same elite level of care I give my own animals. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I'm available throughout the day and night to assist with your pet care needs. Check my posted schedule to ensure the dates you need are available or my website to schedule. Pet walking and drop in visits only. At this time, I'm available for drop in visits, walking your pet, or transportation to and from the vet.
“Sandra is probably the most professional person I have found in the desert in the 2 years we’ve been here. Punctual, loving and caring to our pet, responsive to any questions we had in a more than timely manner, took care of our home with respect. Yes, we will have Sandra back again..thank you Sandra for a great job.”

“Cesar is amazing!! He took care of my three cats while we were out of town for our wedding, over the past 9 days our kitties were in great care with Cesar’s drop in visits! He went above and beyond our expectations. Truly kept the litter boxes clean and swept around them! He changed their food and water and made sure they were safe! Cesar is trust worthy and respectful! He kept us updated throughout the whole process, sending us lots of loving photos and even keeping us updated on the weather! He is soo kind and truly loves animals, we have gold fish here too, even thou we were feeding them pebbles with the automatic feeder he noticed the fish and added some bounce flacks when he visited (out of the kindness of his heart). SO NICE! If you are looking for someone to care for your pets, I HIGHLY recommend Cesar he is very knowledgeable and caring, he followed every step I gave him and went beyond that. He even offered to have a free meet and great so the animals could get to know him! SO THOUGHTFUL. unfortunately my tight schedule wouldn’t allow it but, it’s the thought he puts in that counts! Thank you so much Cesar you are a true blessing to us and our animals! Until next time! 💕”
About: I’ve helped take care of pets all my life and have gotten into pet sitting fairly recently. I’ve helped take care of dogs, cats, chicken, and pigs and am open to learning to help take care of your family. I do my best to schedule any pet care I do around my daily routine and responsibilities so that I can give any pet I care for the best care I can. I take care of pets in the best way for them. I’ll help make sure that dogs go out on schedule/when they ask (even if during the night) as well as making sure if they are on schedule feedings to feed them on time with any medication they might be taking. If the dog is able to walk with me I’d take them on walks recommended by their owner and as often as they recommend. For cats I’d give the shyer ones space to be comfortable on their own, and for the more outgoing ones I’d give them the attention they need. I’ll feed them on schedule and clean their litter box as needed. For all animals if I notice that they are low on food so you know and can get them more without running out.

Robert is caring and concientious. We feel good knowing he's looking in on our cats and that they're under his watchful supervision. It's not easy when cats are aging and their eating habits change, but Robert is understanding of the challenges, and sends us photos which give reassurance. We really appreciate his help!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 90 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hidden Palms. 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.

- 93% 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 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.
