About: Hi, I’m Christian, and I’ve been pet sitting for over five years. I truly love caring for animals and am proud to have five repeat clients who trust me with their pets and homes. I care for dogs, cats, fish, and other household pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets, including those that require medication. I offer both drop-in visits (15 minutes) and overnight stays, including feeding, fresh water, dog walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to help with basic household tasks while you’re away, such as bringing in mail, watering plants, taking out the trash, and keeping an eye on your home. For added peace of mind, I’m certified in CPR, AED, and First Aid. My goal is to make sure your pets are happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away, so you can travel with confidence. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available for 15-minute drop-in visits in the early morning, afternoon, and evening. Whether your pet needs a potty break, feeding, medication, playtime, or a quick check-in, I’m happy to provide reliable care throughout the day. I believe the foundation of great care is trust, safety, and communication. My goal is to create a calm, comfortable, and positive environment where pets feel secure and owners have complete peace of mind while they’re away. Every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take the time to provide personalized care, patience, and attention to ensure they feel happy, safe, and loved. You can count on me to be reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to treating your pets as if they were my own.

About: Hi everyone! My experience in pet-sitting includes taking care of my childhood dog for most of my life. Previously I've worked at PetSmart as a dog groomer, ensuring that all the dogs were well-bathed and taken care of. I've also taken care of my friends cats over the years. I love all animals, and I am extremely attuned to the behavior and feelings of cats, which is why I am close with all of the neighborhood cats and frequently interact with them. I am passionate about pet care because I believe they deserve the best treatment and love. I’m available most days to take care of your cat or dog. I work part-time so I have many availabilities. I am flexible with times as well, I just need a 3-day notice beforehand. My pet care is rooted in attentiveness and trust. I am always paying attention to the pet's needs, while also making sure that I create a bond with them so they feel comfortable and at ease.
“Debbie is a wonderful sitter! I think this is the third time she sat for us now. She always goes above and beyond, leaving the place clean, washed the dishes, and even watered my plants for me. And wonderful photos of the kitties. We will make sure to use her every time!”

About: I love animals (all sorts!) & have been caring for pets since I was a child. Puppies or seniors, I'm ready and able to love and care for your furry family member as well as you would yourself. I'm comfortable giving medications, including shots (I had a dog who was diabeic and needed daily insulin shots), light grooming (brushing etc., - no trims), and cleaning up any unexpected messes. Whether it's daily visits or overnight stays, I hope you will consider me when you need someone trustworthy to care for your pet in your absence. I have a part time job, so need to be away for around 4 hours each day (usually from 2:30-6-6:30, but it can vary), but other than that, I'm available anytime. I am able to come to your home, whether it's just hanging out for a few hours so they have company, or overnight stays for as long as needed. I am not able to care for pets in my own home, as I live in a moblie home, and do not have a yard.
About: I had my dog Nala ever since I was 9. I also grew up with cats, chickens, horses and goats. I would tell I get along with all animals more than people:) Hi my name is Evan! A little about me, I’m the biggest animal lover you will ever meet. I’m 21 years old. I have worked with all sorts of animals even 1500 Ib creatures! I have cerebral palsy and am non-verbal which has led me to a calm, patient, and observant approach to pet care. Animals have always been a natural fit for me and I communicate clearly and reliably through text, notes and the Rover app. Pet sitting allows me to give animals focused, loving care in a low-stress environment which is where I do my best work :) I currently do not have a job so I have all the time to play with some furry friends!! Some of the fun activities that I can provide is taking them on fun walks, playing fetch or tug of war, or simply just chilling together. I am always checking on the pets well being and safety!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life from cats and dogs to bunnies and guinea pigs. My home was always privileged to have pets when I was growing up and now as an adult I’ve chosen to care for my own as well. I absolutely love animals and see them as more than just pets. These babies are family and I will always do my best to make sure your pet receives maximum comfort and care. I am skilled in caring for both young and old fur babies and I am able to follow any specific needs for whatever your baby requires. I currently work part-time so I have lots of time for drop-in visits or even several hours of care in your home. Please do not hesitate to contact me same-day if need be. I will do my best to accommodate your pet! Caring for your pets in your home is my main point of service. My goal is to be available to come drop-in or have an extended stay over the course of the day or night with your fur babies. I am able to follow feeding and potty break schedules and I can also administer medication if needed. Your fur babies will always feel safe and loved while under my care. I would never do anything to compromise the safety or trust of my clients or their pets. I understand that these animals are mentally and emotionally intelligent and I will always treat your booking as I’d like a sitter to treat mine.
About: I have been a professional Dog walker and sitter on and off for most of my adult life! I stopped when my 2 legged children were young, but i always come back to it! Animals are my people😂 I am homeschooling my daughter, so I have tons of flexibility to work throughout the day and evenings insuring your babies are well attended to Although I do not take in dogs to our own home as we have our own pets, I am available to do multiple visits for pet sitting in your own home.
About: I have been taking care of a variety of dogs over the last ten years. I have been able to give love to puppies, animals in their last months of life, and even three legged friends. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, hikes, playing fetch, and interactive enrichment games. My schedule as a substitute teacher gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the week. I typically work anywhere from 2-4 days Monday-Friday, usually from around 8 AM–3 PM, so I have plenty of availability before and after school, as well as on days when I’m not teaching. I love being active, spending time outdoors, and being around animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to fitting into my routine. Whether it’s a walk, time to play, a drop-in visit, or house sitting, I’m happy to give pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need! I always start by learning each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs. Most importantly though, I follow the owner’s instructions closely. My goal is to make the pet feel like nothing has changed, even though their owner is away. For walks and drop-in visits, I enjoy getting to know each pet and finding fun ways to keep them happy and engaged. Depending on their personality and energy level, that might include going for a walk, playing fetch, trying interactive games, spending time outside, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection. I like offering more than one way for pets to get their energy out while also making sure they have everything they need before I leave. For house sitting, I’m happy to follow their usual feeding, walking, play, and bedtime routines while keeping them company and making sure the home stays clean and secure. Since every pet is different, I’m always happy to adjust my care to their individual temperament, preferences, and needs.
“Zack was absolutely amazing with my two dogs while I was away for a few days. My German Shepherd mix isn’t the easiest dog to care for, but Zack went above and beyond to make sure both of my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. He’s responsible, trustworthy, and always on time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dogs were in such great hands. I came home to two happy, relaxed pups, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Zack to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking him again in the future!”

“Highly recommend our amazing pet sitter/house sitter! She watched our two extremely spoiled cats over a long weekend and treated them like absolute royalty. She kept us updated, took fantastic care of our home, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Honestly, when we got home, our cats seemed mildly annoyed that SHE wasn’t walking through the door instead. That says everything. 😂 We are so grateful and have hired her again for the next vacation. Anyone would be lucky to have her caring for their pets!”


“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Service, Genuine Care, and Complete Peace of Mind! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Heather! This was my first time using Rover, and I’ll admit I was a little hesitant about allowing someone into my home, as I’m very particular about who I trust in my personal space. I’ve only had my cat for five months, so leaving my fur baby in someone else’s care was also a new experience for me. From the very beginning, Heather put my mind at ease. I arranged for her to visit twice a day for 30 minutes each visit, and she was absolutely wonderful. She took care of everything, including feeding my cat, refreshing the water bowls, cleaning the litter box, and, most importantly, spending quality time with my kitty. What I appreciated most was Heather’s excellent communication and attention to detail. She sent me an update after every visit, along with pictures, so I could see how my cat was doing and feel connected even while I was away. Those thoughtful updates meant so much to me and gave me tremendous peace of mind. Heather was professional, dependable, thorough, and genuinely caring. She treated my cat with kindness and respect and made me feel comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I also felt confident and secure having Heather in my home, which was especially important to me. I am so grateful to have found someone I can trust with both my home and my precious fur baby. Heather made my first Rover experience a wonderful one, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring pet sitter. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond to care for your pets while giving you peace of mind, Heather is absolutely the person you want! I would gladly book her services again. Thank you, Heather, for taking such wonderful care of my kitty! 🐾❤️”

About: I’ve had experience taking care of pets for my neighbors, friends, and family for many years.

I will be mostly available during weekends or between early June and mid August for summer. I am also willing to work around my work schedule if you are flexible. When caring for pets, I am dependable and willing to follow directions. You can count on me for feeding, walking, playtime, medications and any other pet needs.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and treat every pet like family. As a former educator and devoted pet owner, I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or companionship, my goal is to make your furry friend feel safe, happy, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind!

About: Helped take care of a geriatric dog who was incontinent and lost the use of her legs in the last year of her life. I have had animals in my home all my life, from dogs, cats, birds, and lizards. I usually work a couple of days a week for half days at Michaels. I am available for check-ins most mornings and in the afternoons. I live in a condo with tons of space for running around. I have two of my own cats, and any boarders would have to be fine with them. My cats have their space. I respect any habits and boundaries you have at your house for your pet. I can brush and clean up after the pet, and play their favorite game.

Writing We couldn't have been happier with Sierra! She took wonderful care of our two cats, Spark and Ember, and our home while we were away. It's always a little stressful leaving your pets behind when traveling, but Sierra gave us complete peace of mind. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly took her responsibilities seriously. We returned to two happy, well-cared-for cats and a house that was just as we left it. Most importantly, we felt we could genuinely trust her, and that means everything when you're leaving your pets and home in someone else's hands. We would absolutely use Sierra again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a terrific pet and house sitter!
This is our second time with Melissa dropping in on our cats and hoping that we can continue to book her for our next trips! She is very responsive - proactively reaching out, and providing feedback on cats behavior and litter box use, etc. We feel very comfortable leaving them in her professional hands.

We’re so thankful to Sophie for accommodating our last-minute booking. She took great care of our cats for several days, and we came home to happy, relaxed pets and a clean house. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Newbury Park is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,435 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Newbury Park. 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.

- 86% 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 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.
