“My 2 year old cat Midnight warmed up to Taylor right away! She did an incredible job communicating. Midnight can be timid but they had incredible fun together. I'm sure Midnight is looking forward to seeing Taylor again. I haven't had to use a cat sitter before but it's definitely worth the happy pet and the peace of mind Taylor brought.”
“AnnaMaria did a wonderful job dropping in on my cat, Mr. Steve. Prompt, trustworthy, and super helpful with last minute adjustments. Everything went smoothly from start to finish! Would book again.”
“Great communication and very calm demeanor. Dan also is able to handle my two big hyper dogs which is a huge accomplishment in itself. Looking forward to having Dan come out weekly for my pups.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals including dogs cats rabbits for friends throughout my military career. From kittens and puppies to senior animals. Plus I love fur babies and all their different personalities I’m currently a stay at home mom so I can take care of your fur baby anytime of the week. I’ll show them the love and care the fur babies babies deserve. I have a big fenced in backyard with dogs that can play or not with yours. I also have two cats that do their own things. I can crate as well if wanted.

About: I have taken care of 25+ dogs and cats in the past 3 years, to include in home/overnight pet- and house-sitting, dog walking, brushing, litter box maintenance and pill-based medication administration. When taking care of other people’s pets, I provide the attention and care that I was seeking for my own cat and dog (who, sadly, are no longer with me.) My top priority is the safety of the pet, and to that end, I take no risks with the animals in my care – food protocols are carefully followed, walks are always on leash and doors are carefully monitored to ensure indoor cats remain indoors. With my pet care services, you will have: • Happy, safe and well-cared-for pets • A clean and orderly (tidy) home • Clear and timely communication • Regular and frequent updates (with photos and videos of your pets) • Reliable and dependable pet and home care As a recently-retired educator, I have a very flexible schedule, with plenty of time for your pets. I am available for daily walks, overnight or weekend house sits (your house or mine) and vacation sits (1-4 weeks is typical). When starting a new relationship with a client and their pet(s), I schedule a brief ‘pop over’ appointment where I can meet the animal(s) in the presence of their humans. This helps everyone involved – pets and humans – get to know me and feel comfortable with me before I take on the responsibility for the pet. I take care to be calm around the pets I sit - I let both cats and dogs take their time to warm up to me (come to me when they are ready, sniff my hands, my person, my things). I am careful when feeding animals - particularly dogs - giving them space. I follow the pet's routine - if they sleep on the bed, I let them sleep on the bed; if they like to go in and out frequently, I let them go in and out frequently. I try to make them as comfortable as I can, in their human's absence.
“We are so grateful for this couple! They were so understanding and took care of our kitty. They sent daily photos and videos while we were away. They have a quick response time and are very accommodating!”
About: Hello! My name is Olivia. I have a pup of my own and love more than anything. I will treat your furry friends just as well as I treat mine! I dog sit for friends and family very often and decided to do it in my free time. Please let me know if you have any questions. I work part time so will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I love to go on walks and would love to walk your pet. I have a dog who is friendly with other pets. If needed I can crate your pet or allow free roam. Let me know if you have any questions!
“Samantha was such a great cat sitter! She was friendly and experienced and clearly took very good care of our cat. She communicated great and sent awesome pictures. Can’t wait to use her services again!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs for all my life. I have taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors. I also have experience with cats, fish, birds, and even some reptiles! I have some experience with bathing and walking. I have no problem cleaning up after them if they have an accident :) I am available at anytime for owners’ peace of mind. I want to advance my range of experience with all kinds of dogs and at any time of day. I believe in maintaining a peaceful but fun and interactive environment for my dogs. Due to the dogs maybe feeling unsure or nervous around new people I will never force them out of their comfort zone. The dog is entitled to its own space.
About: I have experience caring for mostly small to medium sized dogs, and often I am the one my family and friends call to take care of their dogs while they’re away! I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions carefully to help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. My experience includes feeding, providing fresh water, daily walks, playtime, and giving plenty of attention and affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I strive to provide dependable, loving care and treat every dog as if they were my own baby! 🐶 I’m currently available full-time to take care of fur babies! I will be going to school sometime in August so that’s when my schedule will change a bit. My current routine allows me to provide attentive and dependable care for your babies! I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they need throughout the day. I am able to follow your pet’s normal schedule, including meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions you provide. I believe keeping a pet’s routine consistent helps them feel comfortable and happy while their parents are away! I do have an orange cat that will be put up in his room while I take care of your babies, so no need to worry about interactions. I also have a fenced backyard so plenty of space for them to run around or go potty. And I live in a neighborhood with good walking trails.
About: With my 4 years of reliable and dedicated experience, I have consistently provided families with peace of mind while away from their precious fur babies. Experience in multi-puppy households. I’m currently working full time, I work best with overnight stays during the week and night stays or drop ins on the weekend. Holiday availability aswell. I’m great with high energy pups and am more than happy to play fetch and take walks. Experience with administering medication and crating. If your puppy is used to snuggles then I’m your girl! Photo updates always included.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for over 8 years now for family members, close friends and neighbors. I have taken care of pets of all ages and can engage in any type of care necessary I am currently working part-time, so I have ample time to care for your pets and give them as much attention and play they need and deserve. I have a fenced yard, that is spacious and no pets so no worries about your pets being around any other animals. They can enjoy their time with me and play as needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Martinez is $25 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $45 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 November 2026, there are 395 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Martinez. 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.

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.
