About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I walk a malamute and husky a lot. I pet sit for smaller dogs too. I love walking dogs because it’s a good exercise for them I’m currently looking for a job so I have a lot of time to hangout and play with your animals and to care for them When walking dogs I walk them for an hour and I always bring water to make sure they get the water they need and don’t overheat

About: I was a dog walker back in college and loved getting to see my animal friends on a regular basis. I have more experience with adult and senior dogs but I can’t say no to a puppy! 🫶 I’m available usually after 10am and can drop in anytime. I can be busy on afternoons during the weekends but I’m mostly around to help. Very flexible and am willing to work with you on the best care for your loved one. Please give me clear instructions and i will be keeping you updated as much as you’d like, via texts and phone calls as needed.
About: I've taken care of street dogs of my childhood neighborhood and now I'm the proud father of 2 beautiful girls. I have an affinity for dogs but cats seem to have an affinity for me 😂. I LOVE walking the dogs as it is a treat for me as well. Can't wait to meet your loved one! I'm available full time and I am ready to work with you and your schedule! I'm dedicating myself to this so I can accommodate for almost anything I have a fenced yard and 2 female dogs who are very friendly and get along with other dogs. There's a yard for them to run around and a river closeby we can walk to if you're comfortable with them getting a little wet.
About: Been a proud owner of goats, cats, chickens, reptiles and dogs. I've had experience in the veterinary field, worked with and cared for livestock and house pets. I am currently working as a veterinary assistant in PV. My schedule is Monday through Thursday from 8:30/9:00am to 5pm. If your pet is able to be left home while I work then perfect! Otherwise I am fully available for long weekends. :) In my own home I have reptiles and three cats and one older dog around. If your pet is staying with me or I’m keeping them company in your own home, I always am engaging with the pet. Any opportunity to play and have some fun, we’re doing it! If they’re more laid back and want to snooze next to me, I will relax with them.

“Cynthia provided 10 days of drop-in care for our picky eater cat. After a "meet and greet" with Cynthia, we were confident she was the right person for the job. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our "baby" would be in the care of a kind, experienced and conscientious animal lover.”
About: Hello! I'm a life long animal lover and have had dogs since I was 7. In my 20's I had a senior dog followed by two puppies, Roscoe who is now 11 and Jolene who is 5. I feel comfortable taking care of cats and dogs at any stage of life. I would love to spend time with your pets, walking them, playing, or snuggling. If your pet has any special needs to be met I'm happy to accommodate just let me know. I have also taken care of birds and rabbits, so if you have any other pets in the household I can help with them as well. I'm a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. I'm available all day on Friday's and Saturday's. The rest of the week I'm available most days after 5pm just reach out to me if you need a service on a weekday evening. I respect your personal space and want your pet(s) to feel completely comfortable in your absence. I'm diligent in making sure their environment is safe (door, gate, etc. are closed properly) and I treat all animals with love and care. I will take care of your pets how I would take care of my own.
“Sonya is a star! 🌟 I am so happy with her care and support of my fur babies. She was punctual, attentive and so warm and loving of my kitties. All directions were followed purrfectly, and she even brought a brushy glove of her own to love up on my cats with. I am super super pleased and will definitely be looking to request her to help us again in the future. I highly recommend Sonya for reliable, caring and loving pet services!! You will not be disappointed! 🐾🐈⬛💟💯☮️🐈🐾”

“Natalie did a great job of taking care of my 3 pups and kitties while I was away for the weekend. She was very caring and communicative, and clearly loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: A Lifetime of Loving Pets 🐾 I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and understanding their unique personality , routine, and needs. As a pet owner myself, I also understand how difficult it can be to leave your pets behind when you travel. You want to enjoy your time away without constantly wondering if they’re okay. That’s why I provide the same level of care I would want for my own pets-attentive, dependable,personalized, and genuinely loving. My goal is for you to feel completely confident that your pets is in caring hands and receiving too-quality care while you’re away. You should be able to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are happy, safe, and exceptionally well cared for. ❤️ I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, hands on care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to give your pets the time, attention, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s keeping their normal routine, taking dogs out for walks and playtime, or simply spending quality time with them, I’m able to be present and attentive rather than a quick visit-they get genuine companionship and consistent care throughout the day. Safety, Trust & Comfort 🐾 I take your pets safety and well-being seriously. I’m careful about following your instructions, maintaining their normal routines, and making sure they’re comfortable in their environment. I believe the little things matter-secure doors and gates, keeping food and medications properly managed, being aware of your pets surroundings, and paying attention to changes in their behavior or routine. Most importantly, I treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. I want you to feel confident knowing that while you’re away, someone responsible and attentive is looking after what matters to you most.

“Annie is a wonderful pet sitter. My two nervous dogs fell in love with her immediately and she has been a huge help to me in managing their anxiety and training issues. She is flexible, loving, and patient with the dogs and can be firm when she needs to be. Annie has been doing drop-in visits at my house and is punctual, friendly, responsible and professional. I am happy to recommend Annie's services to any other prospective clients - she is a delight to work with!”

About: I have taken care of and grew up with all kinds of small, medium and large dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, birds, rodents and more. I am signing up for Rover as I just moved to town, and miss my former roomie’s doggo (Ollie the Shiba) sooo much and would love to care for your dearest animal family member. I grew up with animals and have professionally taken care of dogs as a dog walker, as a paid house and overnight dog sitter and cat sitter, and have caretaked for long periods of time friends’ and many different roommates’ dogs and houses. I love cats and puppies and kitties too!! I am experienced with all kinds of dogs, from elder dogs, to dogs w/ social issues. I love ALL animals and happy to also care for your exotic pet - lizards, geckos, snakes, rats, fish, horses (I’m not as experienced but have been around horses) etc. - I literally love all animals! I have volunteered at an exotic zoo for several months and even studied abroad in college and lived in Kenya Africa for 3 months to study wildlife management. Fun fact - I got to hold and feed a baby sloth as part of this. I have a flexible and open schedule presently as I’m new to town and am looking for work and opportunities. I am really looking to work with animals that I can continue to build a relationship with - like be your regular dog walker, or maybe you live here part-time and want support for your cat while you’re out of town. I will be teaching yoga and hoop dance, doing massage and working online on my business, so my schedule varies and I can fit in walks pretty easily. Wed afternoons and evenings I am NOT available as I am teaching classes at Pioneer Park. I am applying to other jobs though so my schedule may change in the future. I can do some weekends overnight but I also perform on weekends, so please check my schedule or message me. Just reach out - I am happy to be accomodating ☺️🙏🏽 I love going hiking and walking with dogs or adventure cats. I don’t think I’m allowed to have dogs or cats at my Studio, so sadly can’t board your animal. I am happy to come to your home, and can feed/ walk, give meds, brush, and can do other housesitting things like water plants.
“Secret did a great job. She took care of our cat for a week. Our cat is very shy and by the middle of the week our cat was allowing her to pet her and greeting her at the door.”


About: Hi there! I'm Sarah - I live in Nevada City and work for a healthcare company (from home, so my schedule is entirely flexible). I've been a pet-sitter in various capacities for about 15 years; from staying at owner's houses to keep their furry friends safe, happy, and at ease, to daily drop-ins and dog walks - I've even had some experience with reptiles and birds! I'm new(ish) to the area (originally from Maryland, but moved to Nevada County a few months ago from San Francisco) but consider myself an active volunteer and member of this wonderful town. I love to hike, explore dog parks with my own pup, and host/attend dog playdates as much as possible. Caretaking has always been a passion of mine as a healthcare worker, but that certainly doesn't stop with humans. I can't wait to hear from you and provide your pet the best care, catered to your requests and their needs; I have ample time throughout the day to take walks, go to parks, or drop in to spend some time with your furry friend if preferred. I own a car, have a license, and can generally make myself available in any way that best suits your pet(s) needs. I don't have a yard, however, I love in a large condo with two floors, which I've often used to separate dogs and other animals if needed. I live a quick 10 minute walk from Pioneer Park, and frequent other local dog parks, so can guarantee your pal as much exercise and social time as they may need! I live with my fiance and our very gentle, medium-sized cockapoo Rigatoni; we love hikes and nature and don't host parties or leave the house for extended periods of time, so your pet will always be in a safe, caring environment, and will receive full attention in an extremely dog-friendly, clean environment. That's a smart detail to include—it reinforces your reliability and open availability! Here is a blurb you can add to your profile that explains how pet sitting fits seamlessly into your life: 📅 My Routine, Your Pet's Comfort Because I have an open and flexible schedule by design, pet care isn't a distraction—it is my daily routine. My life is structured to prioritize my dogs (and yours!), ensuring they receive consistent attention, timely walks, and fun playtime throughout the day. This means: * Consistent Care: I'm not rushing between jobs; I'm here to provide dedicated, uninterrupted care. * Easy Scheduling: My open calendar and reliable transportation make last-minute or recurring bookings easy and stress-free for you. * Peace of Mind: You can trust that your dog's schedule will be respected and maintained without interruption. You can rest assured that your pet's safety and environment are my top concern. I practice secure leash handling and am always aware of our surroundings on walks. For sitting, I ensure a safe, locked, and pet-proofed environment is maintained at all times, preventing risks and securing your home. A responsible attitude means a safe pet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Nevada City on Rover is $35.87 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 239 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Nevada City. 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.

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.
