About: I’m a local mom of two boys and a lifelong animal lover, and I’d love to help care for your pets like they’re part of our family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet—whether it’s for a quick trip or a longer vacation—so my goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease. I provide dependable, calm, and attentive care, with lots of updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m home most days and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. I’m able to provide consistent visits, walks, feeding, and attention throughout the day, and I make sure each pet stays on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care, I build it into my schedule so pets feel comfortable and cared for. Because I’m not overbooked, I’m able to give each pet my full attention and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. I always tailor my care to each pet’s routine and personality so they feel as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping things consistent - feeding, walks, playtime, and rest all follow their normal schedule. I spend quality time with each pet so they don’t feel rushed or alone, and I’m careful to keep the home clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is doing well.
“I was really to have Ashley as the pet sitter for my cat, Neo. She was very professional while also being warm and caring. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Neo was well looked after and comfortable with her. I would happily recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind pet sitter!”
“We LOVE having Danielle take care of our babies! She even left us a Christmas gift including ornaments with the names of both our dogs! She is the sweetest, and we will absolutely use her again! :)”
“Bonnie made fast friends with our two cats, one who is usually super shy and hesitant around new people! She took great care of our cats and helped us feel comfortable being away!”
About: I have lived with and cared for both cats and dogs my entire life! Caring for animals is something I take seriously, and I always make sure they feel at home. It is my privilege to give your pets a safe, fun, and stress free experience when you can’t be with them. I balance a full time role with flexible availability to give your pets consistent, loving care during the week. I also have open availability on the weekends. I provide hands on, attentive care whether pets are in my home or theirs. I stick to their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved by giving them consistent attention, keeping their environment clean, and treating them like my own pets
“Katarina did another fantastic job! If I had not missed the last review window (app challenged), she would have another 5-star review! Katarina plays with the youngest of three and is very gentle and attentive with the elders during drop-in visits. She's very punctual and let's us know when she's running a few minutes late or needs to be a little early. Highly recommended!!”
“Kyra went above and beyond to help me out. I had to extend her service because of my work and she was super flexible about it. Both my cat and chinchilla loved her and they both seemed happy and well taken care of when I came back.”
About: I have taken care of my own 3 dogs since I was young and have dog sat for neighbors and friends multiple times over the last few years! I have cared for dogs of any breed and any age, as well as dogs with health concerns! I currently work Tuesday-Thursday 9am-11:30am and am open for just about the rest of the day! It is possible that I will have 2-3 hours of work at night but depends on co-workers schedules! I am very willing to walk and play with them or lay down and watch a movie on a tired day! I have cared for my own dogs and others, all with different personalities and energy, so I can make sure your dog is taken care of to the best of my abilities!
“Angela is truly a cat whisperer. I told her there was a good chance she wouldn’t even see one of our skittish cats during her visits, to which she replied “challenge accepted!” In no time, both our cats came to greet Angela by running down the stairs and looking forward to meal time and play time. Angela sends lots of movies and pictures and you can tell she genuinely loves the cats. She responds very quickly to communications too! Travel in peace, with Angela in charge, she’s awesome!”
About: I’m a born animal lover! Have had and cared for animals my entire life. Any and all animals from wild to domestic are my ultimate passion in life. I promise to care for your pets at the highest level in order to give you peace of mind while you’re apart from them. I’m dependable, reliable, responsible, easy to work with/communicate with, I’m a diverse person who is comfortable in any setting and I’m very solution oriented. I hope you’ll give me an opportunity to help out with your animals. I’ve just recently relocated here to Columbus,OH area from Los Angeles California. I’m looking to help others with their pets because animals are my life’s passion! I’ve taken care of pets consistently for 10+ years and it simply never grows old. I have full open availability and I am very flexible and understanding. I’m easy to communicate with. At this time I can offer services at clients homes. I have two dogs of my own and so I am able to give your pets the one on one attention that they need I provide care in clients homes. I’ve found that pets do best with a sitter when they are inside of their domain.
“Janel always does exactly what is needed. I have piece of mind at every drop in and overnight stay knowing that Oliver is well taken care of. She is always my first choice for a sitter!”
“Nicole did an amazing job caring for my cats!! She was attentive and made sure they got love while I was away. She made sure that she found my scaredy boy who loves to hide to check he was okay!”
“Maria was absolutely wonderful for my pup!!! She was friendly, respectful, and very attentive to her needs. I am a new pup mama and she made me feel very comfortable leaving my pup with her. She was very responsible and read my very thorough instructions for my pup. I will definitely be choosing Maria again! :)”
About: Hello!! My name is Christine and thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile :) I used Rover for 4-5 years but I moved and then was working 2 jobs at the time so I took a break and am back now! I grew up taking care of many types of animals but more specifically dogs. I have 3 dogs of my own, all different breeds and personalities, which really challenged me to be able to learn and grow with taking care of dogs. I am working on opening my own location for a Doggie Day care business but until then I would like to gain even more experience and slowly earn loyal doggie clients. Mainly available for walks 7 days a week. Mostly open for drop ins 5-7 days a week ! I have a flexible schedule for last min bookings My 3 pets are EXTREMELY LOVED and spoiled! They have their own closets, foods, toys and even a room dedicated to my cats and dogs in case they just need that alone time away from the humans ! They receive the upmost care for grooming and vet clinic as well! My wallet is never happy when it comes to my pets because I just find so many ways to love them and spoil them!
“Sydney did a wonderful job taking care of our cats!!! After our initial meeting, we had high expectations - she exceeded them! She has a calm competence with animals that our pets clearly responded to. We have two cats: one who’s friendly but also assertive (sometimes overly so), and another who’s normally terrified of new people in our house. We assumed she’d never even see him. Instead, he didn’t run when Sydney entered (she even sent a photo!) and actually stayed with her and our other cat during the visit. That wasn’t luck, it was her experience showing. The depth of her experience, successfully handling all kinds of pet situations, makes her an outstanding choice for anyone needing a pet sitter. You'll feel comfortable that they're in good hands!”
“Sydnee was amazing with our two boys!! We received photos everyday and updates to make sure everything was okay. There were lots of play times and she always made sure they had enough food. We felt very comfortable with her in our home and we will be messaging her next time we need someone over :)”

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

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.

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.
