About: I love animals and have been pet-sitting for friends and family for as long as I can remember. I am excited to help you out and become friends with your dog(s). If you are walking or skating distance (under 5 miles), I can be available regularly AM, afternoon, & PM. Otherwise we will have to schedule 2 days in advance. Thank you! I only offer walks, and pet sitting at your home. This means I will come to your home and have a walking route planned out for your dog, refill fresh water, & food (if needed). If it's cat or cats, I will refill water and food as needed as well. I love animals and Im sure you'll see thay upon meeting the first time. I look forward to helping any way I can.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I give my dogs the best care and I treat ever dog as if they’re my own. I have experience walking dogs for friends and family as well. I’m an undergraduate student who has plenty of out of school hours to focus on pet care. I don’t have any other extracurricular activities that would take away from pet care which gives me the ability to pour my full energy and time into this. When it comes to pet care I find it very important to focus and listen to what the dog is comfortable with. Not all dogs have the same personality and they don’t have the same needs. It’s always my top priority to make all dogs comfortable and happy.

You can really tell how much she loves animals and we really felt cared for. Not to mention, she was very helpful with other things like bringing a package in, litter box, and timing.”

About: I’ve always been the person friends and family trust to watch their pets because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a puppy with lots of energy, a senior pet who needs a slower pace and extra care, or a pet that’s a little shy at first, I’m patient and happy to adjust to their needs. I pay attention to the little things, follow routines closely, and love sending updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re hanging out with a friend, not just being watched I’m currently on summer break from my job as an elementary after-school teacher, so I have a more flexible schedule and extra time to dedicate to pet care. During the summer, I work a part-time job, which allows me to provide care before and after my shifts. I’m able to plan my schedule around pets’ needs and make sure they get the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m also available on weekends for extra visits, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention if needed. 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in your home, I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, and get plenty of love and attention. I know every cat is different—some want constant cuddles and playtime, while others prefer their space—so I always let them set the pace. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and absolutely love caring for them. I’m a dog mom myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your furry family member. I’m patient, attentive, reliable, and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, including senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and care. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, medication according to your instructions, or simply some company, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I’d want for my own dog. I’m self-employed and also work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the week to fit pet care around my schedule. I’m happy to arrange walks, drop-ins and pet sitting in advance, and I’ll always be upfront about my availability. I love spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’m happy to follow your normal routine, feeding schedule, walking instructions and any specific house rules you have. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality and boundaries and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection and playtime. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and will keep you updated while your pet is in my care.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and am a proud cat and dog mom. I have two wonderful dogs and a special-needs cat, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I volunteer at a local cat shelter, where I’ve gained experience working with cats of all temperaments. Whether your pet has lots of energy and loves long walks and playtime or prefers quiet companionship and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to every detail, from sticking to feeding schedules and medications to making sure your pet gets plenty of affection and enrichment. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else, so I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with lots of photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Im currently working part time, so I have tons of flexibility and availability to help care for your pets. Getting to hang with animals is the best part of my day. If you invite me into your home to care for your fur children, I’ll make sure to treat it with the utmost care. I’ll do my absolute best to maintain their routines, especially if they have some quirks.

About: I have experience with dogs, cats and the occasional fish. I can handle senior dogs, puppies, medication and injections. I am an expert snuggler and give great belly rubs. I work from home most of the time so I can spend time with the babies as much as needed. I'm active and walk daily so I can walk dogs as much as is needed. In my home, we have a gated yard and we have a double entry system similar to what you see in dog parks to protect dogs from bolting out the door. At your house, I will follow whatever best practices you prefer.

About: You might notice I don’t have many reviews on Rover yet, and that’s simply because I’m new to the app, not new to pet care! I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for years through friends, family, and regular clients outside the platform. I bring a deep love for animals, hands-on experience and a calm, reliable energy that pets naturally respond to. I’m now using Rover to connect with more amazing pet parents and I’d love for you to be one of them! I am a former volunteer of the Prince George's Animal Shelter in Maryland, As a volunteer, I would walk and feed all of our dogs and cats too! Over the years I’ve learned how to communicate with dogs and read their body language to access needs.I’d like to think of myself as the dog whisperer :). I have toys, treats and love on hand at all times to ensure your best friend has a great experience! Also, as a former doggymom,I know the deep love we have for our children and I will do everything to ensure your fur baby is cared for and protected. I’m great with training, super active, and love to explore LA! I am a child developmental therapist who only works from 3-8pm weekdays so I’ll have plenty of time to help with your fur baby during the day and on weekends! I love to get up in the morning to run and take walks in the LA sun, perfect for your pet :) I am extensively active and have done extensive research on pet enrichment, figuring out what they need to be stimulated and happy is my number one priority.

She was very communicative with us and included photographs in her messages, updating us on how things were going back home. She was respectful of our home and took good care of everything while we were away. Shadow was relaxed when we returned. We'll be reaching out to Juliia again in the future!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience raising and caring for dogs of many different breeds, personalities, and temperaments. I’ve trained a puppy and understand the patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement that puppy care requires. I’ve also had the privilege of caring for a senior dog who lived to 14½, giving me experience with the extra patience, attention, and gentle care older dogs need. I truly treat every pet as an individual and take the time to understand their unique needs and personality. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, playful, stubborn, or needs a little extra TLC, I’m committed to making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I work a 9-5, but can definitely meet the flexibility it takes to care for your pet. I will be happy to keep your pets routine while in my care. I offer walks, trips to the park, and an unconditional amount of love and affection. Every animal in my care will be treated with the love and devotion I’d have for my own.

About: Hi! My name is Audrey, and I specialize in providing attentive, high-quality care for pets in a safe, calm, and nurturing environment. I have a genuine love for animals and take pride in delivering a personalized experience tailored to each pet’s unique needs and personality. I currently work at an animal hospital, where I’ve developed hands-on experience in animal care and the confidence to handle a wide range of situations with professionalism and care. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all temperaments and needs, including senior pets, animals with medical conditions, and those who require extra patience and attentive handling. My veterinary hospital background has given me the ability to provide calm, confident, and compassionate care in any situation. While I may have certain days marked as unavailable, I welcome you to reach out at any time—my schedule can be flexible, and I am often able to accommodate requests whenever possible. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I look forward to the opportunity to provide thoughtful, dependable care for your beloved companion. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your needs—I would love to assist. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. At home, I care for our family dog, which includes feeding, walking, playing, and ensuring they feel loved and well-taken care of. This has helped me develop a consistent schedule and a deep understanding of how to meet a pet’s daily needs. Whether it’s my own family dog or pets I’m entrusted to care for, my days naturally revolve around ensuring they are happy, healthy, and cared for. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, loving, and pet-friendly environment tailored to their specific needs. I ensure they have a comfortable space to rest, plenty of playtime, regular walks, and a consistent feeding schedule. Since I care for my family dog daily, I’m well-practiced at providing structure and attention to make pets feel at home. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow the routines and instructions provided. This includes feeding, walking, administering medication, and spending quality time with their pets to ensure they feel comfortable and loved in their familiar environment. Whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize each pet’s unique needs and strive to offer professional, attentive, and loving care.

About: I’ve been around and cared for pets since I was young, and I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level.

I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is safe and cared for.

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Cassidy! She was incredibly nurturing, responsible, and attentive, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about our fur baby. She treated our little one like her own, giving them lots of love, attention, and care while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat, which gave us such peace of mind. We highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with our Freddy again! Hire her now and you will not be disapointed.

Katherine was great at being on time and doing everything she was supposed to for my cat Arya - wet food, topping off fountain and refilling spare water bowl, cleaning litter box and taking a photo of Arya.

Haley once again took amazing care of our girls! My husband and I feel incredibly fortunate that we found such a kind and caring sitter in Haley.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - North Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in North Hills is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $42 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 October 2026, there are 7,714 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across North Hills. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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 , 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.
