“Minay is the best! She’s super reliable and communicative and great with my cat (who can be particular), taking good care of her and making her feel at ease. Highly recommend!”
About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for animals including dogs, cats, and farm animals. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors, and I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, and temperament. I also have firsthand experience caring for young puppies after my own dog had a litter, which taught me how much attention, patience, and care younger animals can require. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet seriously. I pay close attention to each animals behavior and wellbeing, follow the owners care instructions, and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while their pet is in my care. I’m currently a part-time student, so my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available for house sitting Friday–Sunday and for dog walks and drop-in visits Monday–Thursday. My hours may vary depending on the day, but I’ll always make sure I can accommodate your pet’s needs and routine before accepting a booking. For house sitting, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any care instructions you provide to help them stay comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, playtime and attention, and a clean and safe environment. I’ll also respect your home and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are properly secured. For dog walks, I’ll keep your dog safely leashed and pay close attention to our surroundings throughout the walk. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding their usual route, behavior around other dogs or people, and anything else I should be aware of to keep them safe and comfortable. For drop-in visits, I’ll check on your pet and take care of their needs according to your instructions, including feeding, refreshing their water, potty breaks, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and playtime. I’ll also keep you updated on how your pet is doing so you can have peace of mind while they’re in my care.
“Jenny was so fantastic! She was extremely communicative and left detailed updates on my cat and what they were up to. My cat gets separation anxiety and had absolutely no problems with Jenny. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”
“Dani takes incredible care of our kitty, we have now used her several times. I always know she will take great care of him and have zero worries while she is watching him. Plus he loves her!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a teenager and currently have a Border Collie and a Russian Blue cat of my own. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has a different personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and patience I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m also happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and daily routines. I always keep dogs securely leashed outside and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I’m patient with pets and will make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs! I have experience with kittens and puppies, as well as our rescue senior dog. I have occasionally used tricks to get pets to take medication, and I am no stranger to moody pets. I also have experience with pets recovering from various medical procedures ranging from teeth removal to major surgeries. I recently moved to the city! I’m not planning to get a strict scheduled job and prefer the flexibility Rover has to offer, so my schedule is very open. I do not have any personal equipment for handling pets at the moment, so anything needed for the care of the pet must be provided by the client. I am very happy to walk, feed, play with, and just simply spend time with your pets whenever needed! So long as all the necessary care items are provided for me, I can do it!
“Saniya is the real deal! My cat was shy at first, now they’re besties! That takes talent and a natural affection for animals! Saniya has a great personality and she’s very helpful!! Thanks Saniya.”
About: I have a difficult dog, so I understand when people leave a thousand different instructions for how their pet needs to be communicated with or walked. Reactive? I get it. Takes some time to get to know you? Totally. Needs a song to tinkle? I’m your gal. I’m currently working part time, and I’m working on obtaining a masters degree, so I have a flexible schedule. I take care of my dog’s walking needs in the morning and afternoon, but she’s also flexible with her schedule, which makes it a little easier. This is not applicable to my services, but I promise I will enter your home with respect, follow all instructions you lay out, and will be communicative. I will be working within the community I live in and would like everyone to be happy with my services.
“We had a wonderful experience with Brianni. She was very communicative with me and Wilbur’s needs. She followed directions and Wilbur loved playing with her. Was a pleasure to come home to a crated sleeping puppy with no issues.”
About: I have a deep love for all animals of all shapes and sizes. Fur, feathers, scales; I love them all! I always put the pet first. Pet care is part of my daily routine! A pet needs daily attention and care. Although some pets don’t need 24/7 care, a little extra connection always goes a long way. I have a running supply of pet care items for all the ‘just-in-case’ times we all run into as pet owners. I prefer visiting the pet at the clients home as to not remove the pet from their most comfortable environment.
About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in, feed, walk, and play with their beloved pets. Today, I am a proud owner of an adult Spitz, so I know firsthand exactly how much attention, training, and love companions need. Whether it’s keeping up with active exercise, following strict feeding schedules, or just giving plenty of belly rubs, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Beyond dogs, I also have extensive experience raising and caring for smaller pets, including rabbits and rats. This has taught me to be incredibly detail-oriented, observant, and respectful of every animal's unique routine and personality. I pride myself on being highly responsible, punctual, and communicative. I’m always happy to send regular photo updates so you can have total peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting your furry family members! I work as an independent consultant with a highly flexible schedule, which means pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I have plenty of free time throughout the week to dedicatedly watch, walk, and play with your pups. My flexible hours allow me to easily adapt to your pet's specific routine, potty breaks, and feeding times without any rush. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. When caring for pets, I strictly follow all owner instructions regarding boundaries, feeding, and leash rules. I currently own a friendly adult Spitz, so I am well-versed in maintaining a safe, calm, and supervised environment for dogs to socialize or rest. I always make sure the space is completely pet-friendly, secure, and clear of any hazards.
About: I’m a dedicated pet sitter and dog walker with experience caring for both dogs and cats. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet—I care for my own family dog, so I’m familiar with routines, exercise needs, and giving lots of attention and love. I’ve worked with pets of different ages and personalities! Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, I treat every pet like my own. I currently work remotely with a flexible job, so it’s easy for me to pick up walks or check in on pets during the day. It’s something I enjoying making time for. I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions like feeding schedules, walk times, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping the space clean and secure. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I make sure they are getting lots of attention and supervision.
About: Greetings friend! ❤️ I am a young professional with over 10 years of pet-sitting experience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I have a very flexible schedule and am thankful to have the chance to stay home daily with my sweet mellow pup 🐶 Caring for pets has always been something I’m passionate about, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether it’s providing companionship, going on walks, maintaining routines, or simply making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved, I take pride in giving every pet the attention and care they deserve 🥰 As a pawpa I understand the need to know how your baby is doing, so I provide a daily report for all bookings to ensure your peace of mind ❤️ I am currently working part time remotely, with a lot of down time in my day! This grants me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with all my fluffy friends. I keep dogs on leash at all times, ensure they are not near other dogs during walks, look for body language changes, and am attentive to the environment when we walk.
About: Hi there! I am an Aussie working (hybrid) in LA with over 8yrs of consistent pet sitting experience and a lifetime of loving and living with pets. My experience is expansive; from helping birth puppies to caring for senior animals who were on their last legs. My work is 90% remote which makes my schedule compatible with the needs of most pets and if extra care or time is required my work is flexible in that I can adapt accordingly. Working from home or “remote” means I have lots of time to love on the animals who need attention. I keep doors and gates secure, follow your feeding and medication routines, and send regular updates so you can relax.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Los Angeles
Lindsey is extremely communicative and helped me feel so at ease while I was away from my pets. She cared for my 3 cats for a weekend, and was sure to send pictures every day, let me know when she would be arriving and leaving, and went above and beyond for us. I will definitely be hiring again.
Wanyao was great! She was very responsible and followed caring instructions carefully. She also sent me photos and updates to make sure my cat was doing well. My cat is usually very shy around new people, but by the third day, she started playing with Wanyao :). I really appreciate her patience and care. Would definitely book with her again!
Madison was wonderful with my cat Taro! She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and sent lots of adorable photos of him at dinner and playtime, which put me completely at ease while I was away. I could tell he was comfortable and well cared for. Would highly recommend Madison.
Ella took wonderful care of my two cats, and I’m so grateful for her help. She made the experience feel easy and reassuring, and I felt comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands. I’d happily recommend Ella to anyone looking for someone caring to look after their pets!
Daniele was great and took good care of my two kitties. They had fun playing with her and she made sure their litter box (and surrounding area) was clean, and cleaned up after one of them had an accident. Really appreciate her help and attention to my two cats!
Nicholas was sooo great with my cat Django. He sent so many pictures and gave me so much peace of mind. I had an initial meet & greet with him to show him the ropes and he was so attentive and you could really tell cares about animals. He was on time, sent rover cards, played with my fur baby and just a very responsible caretaker. I def recommend using nicholas for your rover needs!
Jackelene was absolutely amazing! 💕 She took such great care of my kitty and treated him with so much love and attention. She kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout my trip, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. My cat felt very comfortable with her, and they definitely bonded! One thing I especially appreciated is that my cat only understands Spanish, and Jackelene speaks Spanish too, which made the experience even better! 🥹❤️ I highly recommend her! If I ever need a cat sitter again, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her. Thank you so much, Jackelene! 🐱💕
5 stars for Britt! This is the second time she’s helped watch our cat and it’s been so smooth both times! She often spends more than the requested time with our cat which we so appreciate! She also sends photos of play time with every visit which is great too! She’s our go-to cat sitter when we’re out of town.
Dani is hands down the best pet sitter we’ve ever worked with! She has watched our cats multiple times now, and she recently took care of them during a longer trip away. She goes above and beyond every single time, even stepping in late at night without hesitation when an issue came up. Knowing Dani is looking after our cats brings complete peace of mind whenever we travel. She is deeply caring, reliable, and truly trustworthy. We cannot recommend her enough!
this is my second time booking with nicolette, highly recommend! she gave fun and thorough updates with lots of photos and needed little to no additional support while i was away from my babies. she even got my shy cat to come out and play by her second visit. we rarely leave our cats alone so i was nervous but i quickly realized they were in good hands. thanks for taking such good care of my kitties! 🐱

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Los Angeles is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of November 2026, there are 2,691 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Los Angeles. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Los Angeles. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 90% 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 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.
