“I was so happy that Sara was able to take care of my elderly cats while I was away! Was worried about them, of course, but the minute I saw how she took care of my kitties I was incredibly impressed and knew I had chosen the right person. I trusted her with everything I asked, and she even had to clean up “surprises” from my boys. When I leave again I want to make sure that she is able (& willing) to do this again! Thank you for all you do…”
“Thanks so much for taking care of the pups! I really appreciate all the walks, feedings, and everything you did to keep them happy. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. ladded a little extra to say thanks - you went above and beyond. We'd love to have you back again next time!”
About: I am an animal lover and every summer I spent has been with all different types of animals from all over the world from spider monkeys in the amazon to sea lions and marine iguanas in the Galapagos to bull sharks in Fiji. My true passion is dogs and caring for them because they are so lovable and fun to play with. I’m available all year long and available at anytime. I will care for your pet like he or she is my own. My schedule is currently studying for the LSAT to prepare for law school applications this coming fall.I am mostly in the library and at home as well as visiting my grandfather in Mystic Pointe every week. I pray in the morning, work out right after and then study, work and read throughout the day. I have a French bulldog at home who is only friendly out of the home so I will only be able to provide house sitting services and any and all dog walking services :). I hope this is helpful.
“Monica was amazing . The dogs loved her. She is very reliable and I love that she sent me pictures and videos and full reports about what they did,eat and more. Definitely will use her again!!!”
“Ailen was so great with my cat, Milo. Milo had a medical emergency prior to our vacation and Ailen was good at keeping us updated with every visit, giving him his medications (3 different ones orally), and monitoring his progress. Ailen also had an emergency of her own as we were away and did not let it effect our agreement at all as she stuck to the schedule and kept us in the loop. We appreciate her greatly and will definitely be rebooking with her in the near future.”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She had great communication and told me when she was leaving and had arrived each time. She also gave me details of every visit, as well as many pictures. She also was very tentative to my elderly cats needs, including giving him medicine daily. She was very respectful of my house, and asked many questions to make sure that my cat was comfortable and had the best experience while I was gone. It was very evident that she truly cared about his needs, which means a lot to me because he’s like my child. I will definitely be using Stephanie in the future.”
“Audrey took such wonderful care of Bonzo! She arrived on time, followed all of my instructions so well, and made the whole visit feel easy and reassuring. I loved the adorable pet summary she sent afterward, it was such a sweet and thoughtful detail. She even cleaned Bonzo’s bowl after he ate, which I really appreciated. The pictures she sent were the cutest and truly made my day. Bonzo was clearly in great hands with Audrey, and I would happily book with her again!”
“Jenni is a wonderful pet sitter. We have a very old dog. She gets meds, frequent walks, and sometimes has an accident on her P pads. Jenni has been so kind and gentle with her. Jenni also makes sure the the cat(s) and dogs have plenty of clean water, that their food stations are clean, and they are well taken care of and loved when we are gone. We have used her on more than one occasion. We are very comfortable to recommend her. She has been a true gem for us and our furry babies”
About: Hello.My name pronouncedNe-Ka. I am a lifelong-animal lover. I've had dogs my entire life, and they have always been an important part of my life. I recently lost my 16-year-old Chihuahua, and while my heart is still healing, I realized how much joy being around animals brings me. That's what inspired me to join Rover. I absolutely love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. In fact, my love for animals runs so deep that I've been a vegetarian for nearly 20 years. I understand that pets are family, and I will care for your furry friends with the same love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own. I am very flexible to meet the needs of your pet and make them my top priority while in my care. I allow pets to have whatever you permit them to have-treats, cuddles in the couch we’re just playtime at the park. With plenty of pictures and videos for you. I also have experience with cat sitting. I’m just a woman who loves animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, companionship while you're away, or extra love and attention, I'd be honored to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I prefer not to have any in home boarding at my home but in willing to come to yours. If you don’t see a calendar date just reach out to me. Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs. I mostly work from home so my days are flexible. I am flexible to meet the needs of both the pet parent and the pet. I care for pets per the instructions set by the owner. I am very attentive and make your pet my priority, treating them like my own.

“I’m so happy that I found Brianna! She did a wonderful job checking in on our elderly cat. She kept me notified via pictures and answered all my questions regarding my cast’s well-being. I will definitely be using her services again.”

About: Hi, I’m Wesley! If you’re looking for calm, focused, one-on-one care for your dog — you’ve found the right sitter. I only host one dog at a time, which means your pup gets my full attention, a peaceful environment, and zero chaos from multiple pets. I work from home full-time, so your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. Whether they love lounging nearby while I work, going for structured walks, or just being in a relaxed space, I tailor the day to their personality and routine. My home is best suited for: • Dogs who thrive in a quiet, low-stimulation • Pups who enjoy consistent structure and attentive care Because I only take one dog at a time, I’m able to maintain a predictable routine and keep things calm and stress-free. If your dog enjoys a peaceful home with lots of presence and individualized attention, we’ll likely be a great fit. **A Day in the Life of Your Pet with Me** When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like family. My day revolves around ensuring they’re happy, comfortable, and loved. Here’s what a typical day looks like: **Morning:** We start the day with a refreshing walk or some outdoor playtime to help your pet burn off energy and enjoy the fresh air. Afterward, I prepare their breakfast exactly as you specify, paying close attention to any dietary needs, allergies, or medications. **Midday:** Throughout the day, your pet gets my undivided attention. Whether it’s cuddle time on the couch, engaging in their favorite games, or simply being by their side as they nap, I make sure they’re never lonely. If your pet enjoys enrichment activities, I’ll plan fun and stimulating games to keep their minds sharp. **Afternoon:** Another walk or potty break ensures they stay comfortable and active. If they have specific training needs or routines, I’m happy to incorporate those into the day. **Evening:** Dinner is served on schedule, just the way your pet prefers it. We wind down with quiet time, more snuggles, or a relaxed stroll before bedtime to ensure they feel secure and ready to sleep peacefully. I truly care for every pet as if they were my own. I pay attention to their body language, moods, and behaviors to ensure they’re always comfortable and stress-free. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I take pride in providing a safe, loving environment where they feel cherished and at home. When your pet stays with me, I want to make sure their care feels as seamless and personalized as possible. To provide the best experience, I like to learn all the important details about their: - **Meals**: Their feeding schedule, portion sizes, and any preferences or specific preparation instructions. - **Medications**: If they take any, I’ll ensure they’re administered exactly as prescribed, with careful attention to timing and dosage. - **Allergies**: I need to know about any allergies—food-related or otherwise—so I can avoid triggers and keep your pet safe. The more I know about your pet’s unique needs, the better I can provide the love and care they deserve!
“Great company for shasta I can tell! Very intuitive and enjoyed sharing company with our boy! Lots of pics and notes for us to read and put us at ease while we were away! Thank you!”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is that i actually love the whole job not only the cute parts. Im patient when it comes to puppies who are still learning and are very playful, gentle with older dogs who need a slower pace, and calm when pets are anxious and shy. Im great at following the routine like giving pets meds and sensing when something is “off”. Basically I treat every pet like theyre my own with lots of love and care. Pet care fits very well into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is very open, which allows me to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, and companionship as needed I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. At my home, I have a friendly cat and a fenced yard where pets can run around and play safely with supervision. I stick to their normal feeding and potty schedules, give them plenty of playtime and attention, and make sure they’re always comfortable. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely so pets feel relaxed and at home. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and basic care as instructed.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ives Estates
Deena was fantastic and I’ll definitely be booking again! She took great care of my cat for 10 days and we didn’t have to worry about a thing the whole time. We got pictures and updates everyday! We came home to a very happy and healthy cat, thanks to Deena. 100% recommend!!
Sara took the time to always make everything as clean and tidy as I want my pet to have. He’s not very sociable (18yo Cat) so she had to go hunting for him and took a picture every day. That made me feel like he was OK, eating and using the litter box. Thank you, Sara! Until next time (I’ve used Sara’s services before) as I definitely recommend her for taking good care of your beloved pets.
Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She had great communication and told me when she was leaving and had arrived each time. She also gave me details of every visit, as well as many pictures. She also was very tentative to my elderly cats needs, including giving him medicine daily. She was very respectful of my house, and asked many questions to make sure that my cat was comfortable and had the best experience while I was gone. It was very evident that she truly cared about his needs, which means a lot to me because he’s like my child. I will definitely be using Stephanie in the future.
Amazing experience as always. Andrea is so patient and kind with our cats. We always know they are safe and loved when we’re away. She provides the very best care during each drop-in visit and her service never feels rushed. Also very detail oriented. Happy repeat customer. ❤️
Jenni was great with my 4 kitties! Although 3 out of the 4 of them hid most of the time, she did a good job at making them feel comfortable with her presence. She followed all of my instructions and even went the extra mile to sweep up litter from the litterboxes. I'm so glad I found someone who knows what they're doing and really cares about it too! Will definitely book again :)
Brianna does it again! She exceeded my expectations once again! I was kept up to date on her visits with texts and pictures. My older cat needs her meds with food and Brianna administered as per my instructions. She makes my cat feel less stressed when I’m away and I will definitely be booking her again.
We couldn’t be happier with Aleja’s care for our pets while we were on vacation. She didn’t just feed them and take Lola, our dog, for her daily walks—she truly bonded with them, giving them affection and attention as if they were her own. Knowing they were in such good hands gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We came back to happy pets and a calm home, and for that, we’re very grateful. We highly recommend Aleja to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring for their animals.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Ives Estates on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 3,032 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ives Estates. 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.

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.
