“Grace took the time to come meet the dogs before her first visit. She was attentive to our dogs specific needs and even our dog who is more sensitive to new people took to her quickly. Great communicator and easy to work with!”
“Do yourself a favor and book Cassie. She is AMAZING with our three cats and sent us so many pictures and videos — it put huge smiles on our faces every day we were away!”
“Brae was super communicative and proactive. My cats look similar and she was the first sitter to immediately see the difference and treat them like the individuals they are. She clearly cared for my kitties and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands”
“It was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous. Diego made the process seamless and easy and gave me peace of mind while I was out of time. He went above and beyond and made sure my dog had a great time while I was away.”
“Sara did an amazing job taking care of Ambe for me while I was away on a work trip. She took lots of pictures and made sure Ambe wasn't lonely and got plenty of affection. Will be reaching out next time I'm out of town!”
“I’m so grateful for Megan. She was able to watch my pup with short notice. She was very kind and kept me up to date how my guy was doing. I could tell he was in great care with Megan. She let me know before she was leaving and I would love to work with her again! 11/10 stars!”
“Melissa was amazing with Charlie my cat! All the pictures were above and beyond so I could see he was happy! I would definitely use Melissa again, thank you!”
“Erik was amazing!! He went above and beyond for our pets and did even more than we expected to make sure they were comfortable and well taken care of. We would absolutely recommend and book with him again!”
About: Hi, I’m Allison—your pet’s go-to gal! 🐾 My love for animals started early with my two childhood pets: Jack, my sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and Lady, my orange cat who had plenty of personality and a special place in my heart. They taught me just how much joy, comfort, and companionship pets bring to our lives. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 15 and have always been the person friends and family call when they need someone reliable to care for their furry family members. More recently, I’ve been watching my friend’s Portuguese Water Dog and have officially become the go-to gal for all of my friends’ pet-sitting needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, sticking to routines, or extra cuddles on the couch, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My boyfriend and I would love a dog of our own someday, but because he currently works out of town, we’re waiting until his schedule changes. Until then, we’d love the chance to pour all that love and attention into caring for yours! I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so my goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease and that your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work from home full-time Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM–3:00 PM, and my job is incredibly flexible, which makes pet care a perfect fit for my schedule. Because I’m home during the day, I can provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles instead of pets being left alone for long stretches. I’m able to take breaks throughout the day to check in on your pets and adjust my schedule as needed to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat them like they’re my own. I stick closely to their usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions, because I know consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, and I always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.
“Sheryl took great care of our dog and handle all of his quirks really well :) She made sure he had plenty of walks and was entertained while we were out of town. We plan to use Sheryl again in the future.”
“Phinea watched my two cats for a week while I was out of town. She was AMAZING!!! She gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell immediately that Phinea *knows* cats by the way she introduced herself to my cats and the way they immediately felt comfortable with her. She sent me loads of pics each visit and detailed notes, and it was obviously my kitties were getting lots of love & attention and were having so much fun playing with her. I will 100% be hiring Phinea again next time I go out of town. 10/10 !!!!”
“Linda was wonderful — our pup Bella was in love from the moment she met her. Linda patiently answered all my questions and provided frequent updates. She also made this first-time Rover-er feel super comfortable. Wouldn't hesitate to book her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all throughout high school and college! During college I’d walk and dog sit various breeds. I also love cats too :) My significant other and I work from home full time! We have a very flexible schedule and will be willing to work with you to care for your pet. I currently live in a house with a spacious fenced in backyard. When I’ve cared for pets at my house I’ll let them play in the backyard and or take them for a walk around our neighborhood lake.
“Second time using Terri and it feels like she has been watching our cats for years. Our older cat Cosmo is usually standoffish with strangers, and even people he has known his whole life. But when Terri comes in he instantly goes to the room with his toys for play time. Our very first meeting our younger cat Goose jumped up on her lap (she never does this with us!). Terri is a cat whisperer and we love her. I feel like they don’t even seem phased by us going on vacation anymore. They love her so much and she clearly goes above and beyond in making them feel taken care of. Thanks so much Terri!!”
“Taylor went above and beyond to make sure Jax was comfortable and taken care of. We recently moved so he’s been very suspicious of strangers, but he loved her instantly. We will definitely be repeat clients”
“Lara helps me out greatly by letting out my pup during my long shifts. She administered meds and filled her kong to keep her occupied. Kiwi enjoys her afternoon breaks!”
“Couldn’t recommend Abigail more. She took the best care of our Kitty with very short notice and was left the best updates and pictures leaving us without worry! Will definitely be using again! ❤️”
“Jessica was great! Each day she sent nice photos and detailed reports of how our kitties were doing. She also spent time keeping them company and playing with them during the visits. I would definitely rebook with her in the future!”
“Samantha is amazing!!! Always takes such good care of Victor (my fur child). The days that she visits him he’s always happier when I get home. I always pictures and updates as well. Highly recommend Samantha!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mountain View
Ashton took the absolute best care of our cat Phoebe while we were out of the country! I didn’t have to worry one bit. She did an amazing job updating me each day with lots of adorable pictures. I would absolutely recommend her and will choose her to watch our baby every time moving forward :)
Rachel took great care of our cat while we were away; she even went above and beyond and spent some extra time with him since he was in a playful mood while she was here. Based on his talkative chatter upon our return, our boy was happy spending time with her, and everything was neat and clean when we returned. It was easy to see that animals gravitate toward her kind demeanor. Will request her again the next time we are away.
Sara did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats while I was on vacation. They have a pretty specific diet and medication routine, and she did an excellent job following all of my instructions. She was also great about communicating while I was away, keeping me updated and even letting me know right away about a small fridge leak so I could address it. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cats were in such capable hands. I would recommend Sara to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and communicative pet sitter!
Charissa was very helpful while I was away, she was attentive, followed instructions and took good care of my fur baby, kitty was happy when I got home. I appreciate her updates and photos to know that she was being taking care of. I will definitely book again if I leave town. Thank you so much Charissa!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Mountain View on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 6,773 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Mountain View. 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 Mountain View. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
