This was my second time booking with Sophia, and she was amazing again! She communicates great and takes great care of my two bunnies. During this visit, our water unexpectedly got turned off, and she let me know right away. She even brought her own water to make sure they always had fresh water. Will be booking again!

Reyanah was very loving and caring! She went above and beyond to take care of our cat Kevin as if he was her own ❤️ The videos and pictures she sent were great and showed us how much Kevin loved having her over to play and take care of his needs. We’ll definitely be calling her every time whenever we need a pet sitter!

About: I have always had pets since I can remember from cats to dogs, bunnies, chickens, so I grew up caring for many animals. I would also pet sit for family members and friends. I currently have a dog and a bunny! I love exercise and nature, so I’m constantly outside playing sports or walking/running and hiking. I love to look for new spots for hikes or short walks and parks. I also have a part time job of only 12 hours a week so I have a lot of free time on my hands! I currently have a bunny who has her own little pen. My apartment in a gated community and near a park! I am very organized and can follow any specific routines needed for pets of any needs.

About: With seven years of hands-on pet care, I bring more than just love for animals. I bring experience you can trust. Your pet gets one-on-one attention, daily updates, and a calm, consistent routine that keeps stress low while you're away. I’m currently employed Sunday through Thursday as a Sales Consultant at WDC. I work 9am-6pm. I would be happy to check on your pets before and after my work day. I keep routines consistent so your pet feels secure while you're away. That means feeding, walks, playtime, and meds on their normal schedule, plus plenty of companionship. I send daily photo/text updates, bring in mail, water plants, and keep things tidy if needed.

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats since I was 5 years old, giving me more than 40 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I understand that every animal has its own unique personality and needs, and I take the time to provide the individualized care, patience, and attention each pet deserves. Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, feeding, medication (if needed), and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, maintaining their regular routines, or simply providing comfort and affection, I enjoy making pets a priority and treating them like family. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routines and keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their personalities, preferences, and routines. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I currently volunteer at Animal Samaritans, an animal shelter located in Thousand Palms. I've been volunteering for 1 year now and I specialize in the need and care of cats and dogs. My skills can vary from providing companionship to all pets, to special maintenance and cleaning services! Apart from volunteering at a shelter, it is my ultimate goal to work alongside pets all-day, providing not only intensive care but love and compassion to your Fur Babies! My schedule is very flexible as I can fit extensive time for pet care and extracurricular activities such as dog walking. I am currently taking full online courses. I spend most of my days in the comfort of my home alongside my outdoor hobbies. I am available Monday- Sunday and on Holidays. I live in a pet-friendly large home with a friendly kitten and a spacious backyard. Many treats and playtime are always a necessity! There is a community pet-friendly park within a 5-minute walking distance. A 6ft wide fence is provided!

About: Hello, my name is Brandon, and ever since I can remember I’ve been around pets (mostly dogs). I love all living things, especially animals. I started taking care of animals in the 8th grade taking care of my aunt’s cats and from there I’ve cared for all sorts of different animals. Being a pet owner myself I know how much it means that our companions get the best care and in my hands I promise to take care of them as my own, offering baths (if needed), time outside weather it’s just for a walk or playing at the park. For in house visits I can accommodate for whatever needs to be done for your four legged friend and any tidying up that might need to be taken care of. Very flexible person and accommodating to needs of the pet and/or individual. My primary goal is to help in any way I can and provide the best care I can. Please contact me if interested! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening feedings, I structure my day to ensure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they need. I’m consistent, reliable, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for—whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay. I care for each pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their comfort, safety, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or administering medication. I make sure their environment stays clean, secure, and familiar to minimize stress while you're away. For drop-in visits, I give pets plenty of love and attention while making sure all their needs are met. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and reassured.

Joy did an amazing job with our fur babies. Very professional and updated us on her visits to the house which made my vacation much more relaxing knowing my pets were in good hands. I definitely recommend her services and I planned to continue my services with Joy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Indio on Rover is $33.3 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 267 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Indio. 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 Indio. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
