Vanessa was very communicative around planning the visit and she was also very respectful of my cat’s boundaries around new people! She also was skilled in giving my cat her medication with minimal resistance haha. Thank you for taking care of her!

Vicky did an amazing job with my cat Juno. She walked, fed, and played with her. I was impressed with how quickly she responded to messages and how reliable she was. The daily pictures made me feel confident that my cat was in good hands. I will be booking Vicky in the future!

Lehna is truly a Cat Whisperer; our antisocial, anxious cats did so well under her care, could not be more pleased! Her updates were so helpful, and her attention to detail impressive. Cannot recommend enough- if you’re nervous about taking a break from your fur-babies, book Lehna; they’ll be in good hands. ☺️

About: I've had dogs my whole life ranging from a 105 pound Lab to a 9 pound Chihuahua. Family friends and acquaintances have relied on me time and time again to house sit and watch their dogs/cats. As a college student, I like to keep a structured schedule, making it easy to incorporate your pet's care into my daily routine. I have set blocks of time in the mornings, between classes, and in the evenings that I dedicate to feeding, walks, and check-ins. On weekends and lighter class days, I’m able to spend extra time on longer walks, playtime, or sitting stays. I stay organized and plan ahead, so pets always get consistent attention, exercise, and care. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it keeps them comfortable, relaxed, and in a familiar routine. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely—feeding according to their schedule, refreshing water, providing potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special care they need.

About: Natural dog whisperer. Meet my dogs and you'll see. They were both rescues with issues but are now great. Every dog I've dog sat or walked has now become a repeat customer or booked another stay this summer! We go to the dog park everyday and at least 1 super long walk. I'm a former research engineer and now just spend my days with my dogs. Figure we could use some company going to the dog park and dog beach I have an apartment with patio. I take my dogs out very often because I prefer being outdoors and exploring nature and all the trails

My cat usually hates everyone except me and my husband but she appeared for Stephanie! Stephanie did a great job following the instructions we left and was able to take us on at the last minute when our usual sitter fell through. Will definitely be booking with her again!

We had Esmeralda visit and feed our two older cats while we were away, coming once a day. This was our first time with Esmeralda and we are happy with the results. She asked good questions during the meet and greet, and she left our home neat and tidy. I left pretty detailed instructions on feeding and garbage disposal and she followed them well. Our cats are very shy, so she did not have a lot of interaction with them. It looks like one of the cats let Esmeralda get near him towards the end of her visits. The one slight criticism I have is that while she checked off the jobs that she did during each visit she did not write a progress report, such as the cats ate all of their food, or Ray let me pet him.

Victor went above and beyond to make sure the pets were well supervised loved, taken care of and also made sure I got adorable videos. Thank you Victor for taking such great care of the house and the fur babies :) we absolutely appreciate your attention to detail and care for animals!

Juan was a wonderful dog sitter. My 2 dogs are both nervous and like lots of attention. Juan charmed both of them and I came home to 2 happy dogs. Juan was also very considerate, he even washed the dogs' Kongs. I look forward to having him watch the dogs again.

About: My greatest concern when it comes to working with Rover.com is that you, your pet, and myself all have an awesome and positive relationship. If we aren't a good fit, then the money isn't worth it! I am a local artisan with a flexible schedule and experience pet sitting who finds it rewarding to care for animals while earning some extra income. Every pet deserve's loves and attention when their human family is away. That's why I only take care of one dog/cat/family at a time. This ensures that there's no scheduling difficulties and your furry friend is well cared for. I’m always excited to meet new friends so drop me a line if you need some time. Thanks for visiting my profile :) : Im a studio artist and work from home so I have plenty of time to help care for your fuzzy friends, whether its a drop in visit a walk or something else, I’d love to meet you and your pup :) I have a fenced yard a stay near the bay trail so getting outdoors is very easy. I prefer not to take clients dogs to dog parks for safety reasons but walks and attention are certainly part of the experience.

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life, and I’m comfortable caring for animals of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I grew up with cats and was lucky enough to have a litter born in my room, so I’ve been around them from the very beginning. I also grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful high-energy dogs to older dogs who need a gentler pace and a little more support. I’m especially patient with animals that are shy, skittish, cautious, or slow to warm up. I know not every cat or dog wants to be approached the same way, and I try to meet them on their terms, earn their trust, and make the interaction feel safe and positive. Whether that means a walk, playtime, quiet companionship, or giving them space, I want your pet to feel comfortable with me. When I take care of an animal, I treat them like they’re my own. I’m attentive with feeding, water, litter boxes, walks, routines, house instructions, and updates. My goal is simple: for you to feel confident while you’re away, and for your pet to get care, attention, and comfort from our time together. I currently have flexible availability and can work with different pet-care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, cat care, and in-home pet sitting. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, and overnights depending on the request, and I’m happy to discuss your pet’s normal routine so I can keep things as consistent as possible while you’re away. I do not offer boarding in my home at this time. For walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I care for pets in their own home and follow the owner’s instructions closely. I pay attention to feeding routines, fresh water, litter boxes, doors, locks, leash safety, and keeping pets secure and comfortable. I’ll also provide updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I have cared for a dog my whole life. I am a mom to a beautiful fur baby Lola, she is now 7 years old and truly a gift to my life. She absolutely loves meeting new dogs and playing! She is submissive when need be and never aggressive and I believe she gives me something extra to provide. If you choose for your dogs to stay with me they will not only get 24hr attention, many walks and have access to outside anytime but also they get to meet a new friend, my Lola. I take the opportunity of someone trusting me with their pet very seriously and assure you that with me your pet will be safe, comfortable and loved.Thank you for your consideration. Lola and I hope to meet you soon! I currently work from home and am blessed to make my own schedule so there should never be any interference. Your pet will always have my undivided attention. When your pet is under my care they will be treated as family! Safety is very important to me! I want my clients to always feel comfortable and confident in my ability to care for their loved ones :)

About: Dogs have had a special place in my heart for as long as I can remember. Unable to have pets at home as a kid, I sought out opportunities to play with and care for dogs at a young age. Since then, I've... -had my own pets (yayyy!) -volunteered as a puppy foster mom -run large-scale fundraiser events for dog lovers + their dogs, benefiting local shelters -pet sit for 20+ years! (both in my home as well as the pet's home) I am truly comfortable and content with all dogs, from playful puppies and selective seniors, to doggos livin' large. I am happy to reinforce basic training and leash commands you are working on at home. I reward pawsitive behavior through affection, affirmation, and...treats!!! (where applicable of course - not for dogs on diets) :) Along with my 20+ years of experience in pet and house sitting, I have 10+ years of experience as a professional nanny and 2+ years of experience as a personal chef. I know how to treat others' homes, and loved ones, with respect, loving care, and confidentiality. I currently work from home, with flexibility to take breaks and walks throughout the day. I like to go on walks and hikes, and I’m happy to bring your dog along for the adventure if applicable. Health, safety, and happiness of your dog is my top priority. I want your doggie to live their best life while I am with them, and that means lots of love and adventuring (depending on your pup). If your dog is on the shy and/or anxious side, I provide space for them to come to me when the time is right. In an emergency, remaining calm, following procedure, and staying in good communication with you stays top of mind.

We requested zoeyanne at the last minute, less than a day before our trip and she responded promptly confirming the stay. She was great! Very punctual and took good care of the cat. I was worried Petra (my cat) would hide the whole time because she’s shy but she was so friendly and interested in Zoeyanne! The photos added were really cute and nice too. Would absolutely hire her again.

Stephen and Erica watched our cat during the Christmas holidays (and agreed to do so on relatively short notice!) and we came home to a happy cat who had received some new toys for Christmas. It was great getting to see pictures of her while we were away and know that there was someone around to make sure that she was eating and getting some attention. Would definitely boom with Stephen and Erica again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Montara on Rover is $23.31 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,256 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Montara. 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 Montara. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
