“Sequoyah was wonderful from her early communication, to our Meet and Greet, and throughout her visits with our senior dog, Bella. I would definitely recommend her services.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I am able to care for senior animals and animals with special needs or diets, and can help with the basic training of puppies. I have a lot of energy, so I'm always happy when a client has a dog that needs to be walked since it's nice bonding for me. I currently work remotely for an editing service, and am going to school for music classes, so I am available to be around for your pets for any getaways you take. In your home, I will ensure your beloved pets feel safe, happy and stimulated by providing any extra care they need, and showering them with all the love I have for animals

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I have experience with dogs who have special needs, specifically, neurological disorders requiring medication administration. I’ve spent the last two years training my dog, Bubba, through separation anxiety and reactive aggression. He went from chasing cats to occasionally taking naps with them. My first dog, Lilly, was reactive to dogs and when I brought home Bubba as a puppy, my family called him “snack” because they didn’t think it was possible, but she immediately took him in and they were inseparable for 7 years! I’ve always been gifted at reading animals - humans, not so much. I will always advocate for those who can’t advocate for themselves :) I’m available every day, whenever you need! I recently quit my job and needed a fun way to get a little extra cash before moving to the PNW! Unfortunately, my dog is an anti-social introvert and doesn’t like visitors. His house, his rules… However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet inside of your home!

About: Hi! My name is Erika and I’ve always been an animal lover. I have 12 years of experience working as a dog groomer, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of all different breeds, sizes and personalities. I’m patient, easygoing and understand that every dog has their own routine and comfort level. I’m happy to provide lots of love and attention, overnight care, walks, playtime and basic grooming while your pet is with me. I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of the family and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! Upon request at additional charge I also offer grooming. I have a pretty flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, so pets in my care get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of company. I’m also comfortable following your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I always prioritize safety and comfort when caring for pets in their own home. I’m very attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, and I make sure to follow your routines, feeding instructions, and any special care directions exactly as provided. My goal is to help your pet feel secure and relaxed while you’re away, keeping their environment consistent and stress-free.

“I came home shortly after Jasmine came to check up a final time and dropped Willow off. Both Naomi and Willow are so incredibly tired but absolutely happy! I am so glad all my girls got tons of exercise with Jasmine and her companion, Kiwi. As a first time user of this website, and of hiring a pet sitter in general, I was absolutely happy to get regular check in's/ updates on all my girls while I was away. I was admittedly very nervous to have a sitter come over but Jasmine made it such a smooth and easy process. She definitely gained my trust for future needs and I will absolutely be recommending her to friends and colleagues.”

About: I have had a variety of animals always in my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish and rodents. (All of which I've had at some point) I have also worked for a rescue charity for 7+ years which resulted in having learned basic and emergency care, as well as administration of medication. I am retired and looking to fill my time with love and cuddles. I have always enjoyed caring for the variety of animals I have and have had. I love learning all the cute special quirks and loves of every animal I interact with. I am very respectful of other people's space and items - my focus is on the animals in my charge. I can feed, walk, play and generally be a companion to any animal. I also respect the home and treat it even better than my own, ensuring that I leave the home as I found it.

Sarah is AMAZING!! She was able to quickly fill in when our pet sitter had to cancel one day before our trip! She sent us the best pictures so our kiddo didn't miss our pets too much. Thank you Sarah for giving our dogs, cat, and fish all the care and love while we were away! ❤️

We were very pleased with Sarah. Our cats warmed up to her so quickly, which made us feel the cats were comfortable in her care. Since these are indoor cats, the house could have really been a disaster, but it was tidy and welcoming to return home to. We definitely feel comfortable recommending Sarah’s services to others. Thank you, Sarah, for being such a great cat-sitter!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Magalia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Magalia is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $32 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 141 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Magalia. 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 .

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 , 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 .

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 , 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.
