“Maddie did a great job for us. She was very good at communicating, followed our instructions perfectly, and showed up for the visits exactly when she said she would. We will definitely reach out to her again next time we're in need of a sitter”

“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.”

“Stephanie took such great care of fortuna and spent quality time with her which was really appreciated for my anxious baby. Would definitely let her watch Fortuna again :)”

About: I have a huge heart for animals. I have had pets all of my life and consider them to be part of my family. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages and know the commitment and responsibilities that come with caring for pets. If you have an energetic dog, I can take them on runs, jogs or long walks around the neighborhood. If you have a calmer dog then leisurely strolls around the neighborhood it will be. I have experience with shy and reactive dogs and I can give them the patience they need. I am also happy to just cuddle and spend quality time with your dog or cat. Taking care of them is truly a passion for me. Pet care fits perfectly in my schedule. I am a college freshman who is off for the summer and has a flexible schedule. If you and your family are away from home, I’m always free to check up on your furry companions! I will provide the attention your pet needs and follow any specific instructions you have for me. It is important to me that your pet is comfortable and feels safe at all times. Personalized care and giving your companions lots of love and attention are things I will do to make your pet feel happy and safe.

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life, growing up I had three different dogs, Ruby, who died when I was 8, Ollie, and Zoe. I’ve had three fish, two mice, a lizard, and a hamster. Starting at age 12, I began dog and cat sitting for my neighbors and friends, and many families have relied on me for the care of their animals when they cannot be there. I also study animal science with a pre vet concentration in school so I'm extremely knowledgeable on how to correctly interact and care for pets I am currently a full time pet sitter, so sitting is my whole life at the moment. During the year I study animal science but when I am not working over the summer I love to read and bake! I always make sure front doors are closed or locked, pay special attention to certain rules and expectations of different pet owners, and never let animals out of my sight unless they are safely inside or in an enclosed outside space.

“Angelina was an incredible sitter for our 2 cats while we were out of town for a few days! The cats warmed up to her quickly and she always sent a bunch of photos and updates. I'd book her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I've been an animal lover since day one and have been fortunate enough to have lived with many types of animals growing up. Dogs, cats, giant rabbits, toads, hermit crabs- you name it! I was an avid volunteer at the Santa Cruz SPCA for the last couple of years taking care of cats and dogs of all ages. I just lost my 15 year old dog and 22 year old cat in the last year so I am eager to be around animals again and treat them as I would my own. I take a very gentle approach and believe in meeting each pet exactly where they are whether they are social and friendly or shy and anxious. My schedule is very open right now so I’m flexible when it comes to scheduling. I’m free most weekends and can accommodate holidays as well. I’m happy to meet your animals whwre they are at whether that means playing and getting their energy out or hanging out on the couch.

About: I have over 15 years experience in pet care and dog training. I have cared for cats, dogs of all sizes, fish, and hermit crabs. I am very dependable, patient and a quick learner. Pets of all kinds gravitate to my loving nature and strong, responsible presence. My hours are extremely flexible and I am available almost always in case you need someone fast and dependable. I have lots of availability whenever you need. I care for my pets by making sure they have consistent routines, proper nutrition, and plenty of attention and exercise. I have both a cat and a dog, so I’m familiar with balancing different needs—my dog gets regular walks, playtime, and structured feeding, while my cat has a calm environment, fresh litter, and daily care and interaction on her terms. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, and I make sure they always feel safe, clean, and well cared for.
About: I have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember, including behavior and training. I believe that every dog is a good dog. I began my career in animal care at an exotic pet shop in my teens. Between retail gigs, I had the privilege of working at a rescue shelter and a zoo, where my passions for animal conservation and welfare continued to grow. After that I spent some time in the veterinary field, where I gained valuable experience as a veterinary assistant. It was working in the veterinary field where I really got to pursue my passion for working gently with anxious and "aggressive" animals. Due to some physical limitations, I am not able to work full-time anymore, so I am now taking time to focus on what I really love to do, which is making pet and owner's lives easier. In my free time, I love to crochet, play video and borad games, and go on hikes with my partner. I am currently available full time to walk, sit, or drop-in on your pet! I can make most days and times work. Let me know what you need. I am not able to host for pet-sitting currently, per my lease at my current living arrangement, but I am available to stay in the pet owner's home if requested.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, houses, children, and more since I was 15. I’ve always loved animals as well as helping people out when they need it so this opened many opportunities for me at a young age to take care of pets for the people around me. Through networking with those people I was able to extend further and meet more people to provide care for. I have multiple years of experience dog sitting and walking, cat sitting, and house sitting in addition to raising my own pets over the years. There is no pet I couldn’t come to love and enjoy being around and I love how taking care of them can also enrich my own experiences and knowledge about animals! I can walk and care for small dogs to large dogs as long as they aren’t completely without basic training. I also have experience caring for elderly/sick dogs and cats including following specific feeding concerns and keeping up with medicines. I recently graduated college and am unemployed so I have plenty of time to spare for your pet! I am open to any walking length and am flexible with times and days. I also have plenty of experience house sitting and taking care of pets in their own homes/environment. I am great at keeping routines and following a schedule so caring for pets fits perfectly into my day! I take instructions and guidelines seriously when taking care of people’s pets so I make sure to follow them accordingly and carefully. I utilize whatever resources made available by clients to take better care of their pet. I also always make sure pets are comfortable with me and that I can properly understand and care for their needs! Whether a pet needs a slower walking pace, longer or shorter walks, specific food, or needs certain conditions to be comfortable or safe in their home I make sure to accommodate their needs.
About: I have been a veterinary technician since 2015. I always knew working with animals was my passion. Prior to being a vet tech, I was a dog trainer at Petco for 1.5 years. My expertise and knowledge in this industry is of no doubt. I currently work in an animal clinic close to home which is so convenient. I’m an active young mother so I enjoy outside time as well and love going on walks. I’m capable to administer subcutaneous fluids and medications of any sort if needed. My husband works from home so someone will be home all day with your fur baby! We go on 2 long walks daily along with 2 extra bathroom breaks in between. PREFERRED DROP OFF/ PICK UP TIMES : Monday - Friday before 7:20 AM OR after 6 PM. Saturdays & Sundays are completely open. This is just so we can meet each time. If needed outside those time frames my husband will the one to receive your furbaby ♥️ I currently do not have pets of my own, but I treat them all as if they were. The love, care, and attentiveness I carry within myself will show through your pet’s happiness and well being.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,413 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 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.
