“We were leaving abroad for about two months. I’m very grateful to have found Weichen on Rover to take care of my cat. Weichen was very easy to communicate with and always thoughtful and considerate throughout the entire time. I really appreciated the care and attention given to my cat, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I’m very grateful for the help and would absolutely trust Weichen to take care of my cat again in the future. I highly recommend Weichen to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter on Rover.”

I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routines, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply giving them plenty of attention and companionship. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m available for pet care in the mornings, around midday, evenings, and most weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and schedule walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime in advance.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over seven years through the Wag! platform in addition to friends and family’s pups, and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. Over time, I’ve discovered that I truly excel with smaller, calmer, and more mellow dogs—and that’s where my focus is for Rover. I take a gentle, attentive approach to dog care, paying close attention to each dog’s comfort level, routine, and preferences. I’m especially mindful of dogs who thrive in quieter, low-stress environments and do best with patience and consistency. Whether it’s relaxed walks, cozy companionship, or simply maintaining their normal routine, my goal is always to create a safe, low-stress experience where dogs feel secure, respected, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is my top priority. My schedule is flexible so I may step away for some dog walks, but I am mindful of my schedule and adjust taking additional walks accordingly.

About: During high school and still to this day, I house sit and do daily check ins for my friends pets, so I spend a lot of time with animals. I am comfortable adapting to what you and your pet requires for the best experiences. I have experience feeding cats and dogs, giving oral medication, cleaning up throw up on carpets, furniture, floors, etc. I’ve cared for large dogs with a lot of energy, medium sized dogs, small sized dogs, anxious cats and dogs, and senior pets. I grew up with a lot of animals in my family and I love going on runs, walks, hikes, etc. I really just love being outside and getting active. I have two domestic short hair cats that I adopted when they were first born, and now they are two years old and thriving. I’m currently working part time at Yardhouse and need to get some more exercise. I work mostly in the afternoon on weekday and weekends, so morning walks and early afternoons are the best times I can provide services. I can also provide services late night services for emergencies and last minute situations. My schedule is flexible early morning and late nights. I am a very early riser so I am most available in the mornings. I will treat your pet and home as if it was mine. I’ll follow your exact instructions so you won’t have to worry about your pet. I’ll keep a close eye on your pet and make sure all doors and gates are closed, ensuring no risk of losing your beloved pet. Dogs and cats will stay leashed at all times when going on walks. I’ll send very detailed updates through out the day, leaving no worries about your pets safety and well being. If I sense something is wrong, I’ll give you a call immediately and take them to the vet if necessary.

About: I have always had cats growing up and currently have 4. As well as 1 fish. I cat sat for my father and one of my friends for extended periods of time. I have walked dogs for family members ever since I was a little kid, as well as taken care of my grandmother's dog for the several years we lived together. I am currently pursuing my cosmetology license. Fortunately my school schedule is very flexible. I thought this would be a good way to earn money on the side since I love working with animals. I know to approach animals gently to ensure they are comfortable before engaging further. I am cautious of surroundings and will make sure to avoid anything that may be dangerous for a the pet/pets.

About: I grow up with dogs and pets in my home and animals have always been a big part of my life. Having had a senior dog myself has taught me a lot so I have a lot of experience administrating medications and routines. But also we now have a puppy that is full of energy and have a very different and varied personality and routine. I had the opportunity to work with all types of dogs and cats. From all ages and breeds. I’m a full time dog sitter and I love it. So when I have a booking and spend all of my time with them, walking, playing, training, napping, meals, etc. I love go take pictures and videos that I send my clients so they can see what I’m doing. I have a puppy of 6 months that it’s super sweet and loving. He will make sure your dog has an amazing play time with us. We live in front of a park that is perfect for walks and play time.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have spent my whole life caring for dogs and cats! I currently have two dogs, two chickens, and eight cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and pet care needs. I’ve also been dog walking for the past year, gaining hands-on experience caring for other people’s pets. My background in childcare has taught me patience, responsibility, and attentiveness, which I bring into caring for animals as well. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I always strive to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! I’m currently a college student, and my classes only take up about an hour each weekday morning, leaving me with plenty of flexibility throughout the day! Outside of school, I love staying active, going on walks, and spending time at home. Because of this, incorporating pet care into my daily routine feels like a perfect fit! Whether it’s taking your dog on a walk, stopping by for a visit, or spending quality time with your pet at home, I have the time and flexibility to give them plenty of attention and care. I live alone in an apartment in the heart of downtown Campbell, with access to a fully fenced front and backyard that are private and only accessible to me. Although I have pets of my own, they live at my family home, so any animals staying with me will have a comfortable space without other pets around! I’m also just a five-minute walk from Los Gatos Creek Trail and close to several local parks, making it easy to incorporate walks and outdoor time into our daily routine. My biggest priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining the routines they’re used to at home. Whether your pet is crate-trained, prefers to free roam, or has specific dietary or medical needs, I’m happy to accommodate their individual requirements and follow your instructions closely. I plan to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care, working around my school schedule and their needs. I’m also more than happy to provide photos and updates throughout their stay so you can feel confident that your furry friend is in good hands! For house sitting and drop-in visits, I bring that same level of attention and respect to your home, making sure your pet’s normal routine is maintained as closely as possible.

About: I've always been an animal enthusiast for the longest time! As long as i remember I've taken care of a plethora of pets from a small goldfish to an energetic Doberman. This experience has given me a keen eye and compassion on how to keep pets happy and cared for! I'm currently a full-time student with a lot of flexible hours, which means more time to take care of your furry companion. I'm available for sitting and walks: all day on Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays and in the early day on Saturdays. I'll be sure that not only does your pet (or pets) stay happy and clean but your home as well! If you have any specifications concerning caring or walking your pets I'll follow them to a T!

About: I love dogs and dogs love me. I have lived with many dogs while care for them as a puppy and house trained them. I love to go on walks, and house sit these love bugs. It brings me joy to support and be in service to families. I Owned a cat for 16 years and then as an adult I have cat sit before. Cats often take time and adjustment to a new energy. So I allow the cat to come to me. I am an online energy healer/life coach and so I work daily on a computer and can be flexible with routine. I would consult and agree to the time needed daily or weekly with the pet care I like to ask for a printed out routine or schedule. Emergency contacts and possible things to do around the house so when the owner comes home they can relax and have everything still flowing in the house.

About: My connection with animals isn’t just a hobby, it’s second nature. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats since I was 6 years old, meaning I have a lifetime of hands-on experience understanding their unique personalities, moods, and needs. While I don't currently have pets of my own, my heart is completely full of love ready to give to yours! Because I have a very flexible schedule, pet care isn't something I squeeze into a busy workday, it’s the main event! My routine is naturally built around giving pets the time, attention, and structured care they need to feel completely safe and loved. Because I live in a small apartment, I prefer to provide in-home services instead but can make exceptions for small pets to have in my home.

About: Hi! My name is Alexa, and I absolutely love animals! I have grown up around pets and currently have a cat and a German Shepherd of my own. I also previously had an English Mastiff, so I’m very comfortable caring for large dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they can sometimes need. I have experience dog walking for many different families, doing drop-in visits for both dogs and cats, and house sitting for dogs, cats, and even chickens! I love getting to know each pet’s individual personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. While I haven’t personally cared for every type of animal, I am responsible, trustworthy, and very willing to carefully follow any instructions you provide. I’m always happy to learn about your pet’s specific routine, needs, and preferences. I recently graduated high school with a 4.67 GPA and will be attending Washington University in St. Louis next year. I’m dependable, organized, and take my responsibilities seriously, but most importantly, I genuinely love animals and would treat your pets as if they were my own. I work a daily job from noon until the evening, so I’m most available in the mornings. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care before noon, especially if your pet is sensitive to heat and only takes morning walks! I may not be able to personally stay with a pet 24/7 every day, but I can accommodate pets who are comfortable being alone for part of the day. For boarding, I also have family members in my home who can be with your pet while I’m at work, so your pet will have someone around and will not be left alone for the entire day. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific schedule and needs beforehand to make sure I can provide the right level of care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are extremely important to me. I have experience caring for dogs and cats and understand how important it is to follow each pet’s individual routine, instructions, and boundaries. I have a large, securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and get some energy out. I also have an older German Shepherd and a cat, so I’m very familiar with having multiple pets in the home and making sure everyone is comfortable. I’m responsible, attentive, and trustworthy, and I will always follow your instructions carefully. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

Angelina was so great with my two cats. One of my cats is difficult sometimes but Angelia was patient and the cat eventually warmed up to her. She also helped keep the house secure which gave us peace of mind. I highly recommend Angelina for pet sitting without worry!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - New Almaden

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 2,544 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Almaden. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Almaden. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 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.
