“We've hired Chenyang to help cat-sit our senior kitty, Luca, for a 10-day period. Chenyang is wonderful to work with; she is very accommodating with drop-off and pickup times, very responsive, and goes above and beyond with our requests. Luca was recently admitted to the hospital, so during his stay, there was extra medication that he had to take. Chenyang helps with the additional medication, and also, her place is clean and quiet, perfect for Luca to have some quality rest while regaining his health. We would recommend Chenyang, and I would definitely work with her should we need to board Luca again.”

About: I am a dedicated and reliable pet sitter with over 3 years of professional experience and a lifelong passion for animal care that began when I was 12 years old. I provide loving, active, and attentive care for both dogs and cats. Having grown up with my own cat and dog (who now lives happily with my parents), I truly understand the responsibility and emotional bond pet owners share with their animals. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels from energetic puppies to senior pets requiring gentle care. I focus on daily exercise, play, feeding, and companionship tailored to each pet’s unique needs and personality. Pet owners can expect regular photo and video updates, a safe and enriching environment, and complete peace of mind while they’re away. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals combined with consistent reliability and professionalism. I’m working full time but I am off at 4pm so I’m more flexible during the evening so if you need someone at those time I’m ready to serve. And also if you’re away on vacation. But I’m free on Saturdays. I live in a two bedroom apartment with a decent amount of room in the living room. With a patio. But I’ll take the dogs out to the park more for high activity.

About: Having loved and lost my own dogs, I know firsthand that pets are deeply valued family members who deserve the highest quality of care. For the last six years, I have been the go-to pet sitter and dog walker for my friends and family. Whether you are traveling for a few days or just need a reliable walker during a busy work week, I am here to ensure your pets maintain their routine and receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention. With a highly flexible part-time schedule, I dedicate my days fully to pet care and companionship. Your furry family member will never be left alone for long periods, as I have ample availability throughout the week for early morning turnouts, midday walks, and dedicated evening attention. Whether you need reliable daily dog walking to break up the workday or attentive overnight house sitting while you travel, my routine is designed to seamlessly adapt to your pet's established schedule and provide them with plenty of love, exercise, and care. When caring for your pet in your home, my top priority is maintaining a safe, trustworthy, and familiar environment. I focus on safety first by enforcing strict leash rules during walks and thoroughly double-checking all door and window locks. To build trust, I completely respect your private space while keeping you connected with detailed check-in notes and regular updates. Finally, I preserve your pet's familiar sanctuary by keeping their routine and home setup exactly as you left it, ensuring a stress-free experience while you are away.

About: I've been around animals for as long as I can remember, starting with Ginger, my family's German shepherd and husky mix, and four cats growing up. I later spent about two years volunteering at my local SPCA, working hands-on with dogs of every size and temperament, from bouncy puppies to nervous rescues. I've also had cats of my own as an adult, including two rescues, and fostered kittens before I started traveling. Since then I've cared for pets through farm stays and housesits across Costa Rica, Panama, Spain, and Canada — dogs, cats, chickens, goats, even an adult pet rat. I'm comfortable administering medication, working with anxious or senior animals, and managing multi-pet households. I'm calm, attentive, and treat every home and animal I look after like my own. I'm currently transitioning to the San Mateo County area temporarily starting early November and building my schedule around pet care full-time, so I have plenty of flexibility for house sits, and daily visits, including extended or last-minute stays. I don't currently have a conflicting 9-to-5, which means I can commit fully to a pet's normal routine for the length of a booking rather than fitting care in around other work. Since I focus on house sitting, I stay at your home rather than asking your pet to adjust to a new environment. I follow feeding, medication, and walking routines exactly as instructed, keep the house clean and secure, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I don't bring other pets into the home, so your animal gets my full attention for the whole stay.

About: I've been around animals my whole life and wouldn't have it any other way. I grew up with three Whippets, a Toy Poodle, and two cats, caring for them from puppyhood right through their senior years. I've also competed in dog shows and won Champion of Baltic States several times. I'm experienced with sighthounds (Whippets, Greyhounds, Italian Greyhounds), Toy Poodles, and all size dogs. I've handled breeding dogs, newborn puppies, pregnant moms, and specialized diets. I'm comfortable training dogs in obedience, potty training, loose-leash walking, and recall. The two cats I had lived to 17 and 18! I'm comfortable with all their needs. I've also ridden and trained horses since I was 10. I am a pet sitter who genuinely loves animals, knows their quirks and needs, and treats your pets like they're my own. Whether it's a senior dog needing extra care, a puppy needing attention, or a cat who prefers routine, I've got you covered. I’m currently in between jobs, having just moved back to the Bay Area from Paris. That means I can take care of your pets almost any time and be very flexible with last minute bookings. I am very attentive to follow the exact instructions that clients have regarding their pets and homes. Having years and years of experience with all types of animals, I have developed a good common sense about their needs and moods.

“We were so grateful for Matt and Bella to come kitty/house sit when we needed someone two days out of leaving fire our trip. One of our fur babies needs a lot of attention and Matt and Bella accepted our request with a very short notice. They picked up the phone and we WhatsApp to meet them, since we wouldn't be able to meet face to face, as they were not in town. Matt sent photos each day with updates and photos, which we appreciated. We highly recommend Matt and Bella. They were kind to our kitties and kept an eye on things at the house. We will definitely have them again. Thank you Rover for the excellent referral. Andrea”

About: I'm an animal lover who enjoys spending time with both cats and dogs. I have several years of experience fostering pets and caring for animals with different personalities and needs. I'm also an experienced photographer, so you can expect plenty of high-quality photos and videos while you're away - I love keeping pet parents updated and reassured! I'm patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I'm constantly learning more about animal behavior and love growing alongside the pets I look after. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. I'm available for drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I always make sure pets get consistent care, playtime, and companionship, and I communicate clearly with pet parents about timing and availability. I focus on keeping pets safe and comfortable in their own home environment by following all care instructions closely and respecting household routines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, keep litter boxes and feeding areas clean, and monitor pets carefully for any signs of stress or discomfort. I always communicate clearly and send frequent photo and video updates for peace of mind.

About: I've cared for my family's dogs and cats since I was a teenager. I can handle dogs that pull and bark on the street, including big ones. I have experience walking up to three dogs at a time. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and prioritize a safe, enjoyable walk for their dogs. I'm allergic to cats, but I can do a short visit for feeding and other necessary care. I’m currently a part-time student with a flexible schedule. I’m happy to coordinate walks and drop-in visits around your pet’s routine and needs. I follow your instructions closely and respect your home. Before walks, I check that your dog’s leash and harness are secure and keep them leashed throughout the walk. During visits, I keep doors and gates closed, refresh water as instructed, and provide calm, attentive care for your pet. I’ll send photo updates and contact you promptly if I notice any concerns.

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. ☺️

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!

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 .

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.

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.
