About: I’ve owned several types of dogs from small to big since i was a child! I now have my own cat that me and my partner take care after and give so much love to! I have experience of basic necessities such as walking dogs, playing with them, etc I am a full time ABA therapist where my schedule during the week ranges usually from 8 AM - 4 PM. I can check on your pets or take them for a walk anytime after that! Weekends are always free other than sundays from 2 PM - 5 PM! I ensure the pet's safety, comfort, and happiness by following the owner's instructions carefully. This includes feeding, walking, playing, and providing any medication as needed. I also maintain a clean environment by tidying up after the pet and respecting the client's home and belongings. I keep the owner updated with regular messages or photos to let them know how their pet is doing.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my day-to-day. I’ve also cared for rabbits and understand their unique needs and temperaments. I’ve volunteered at several animal shelters over the years, and I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years. As a result, I’m very familiar with general animal care, handling, and behavior. I’m also experienced in administering medications when needed, so you can feel confident your pet is in capable, compassionate hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m living van life with my two cats, and my boyfriend travels with me, so pets get double the attention! I also have two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable with feeding, administering medications, and handling a variety of care needs. My schedule is fully flexible, allowing us to adjust our day around each pet’s routine and provide consistent care, play, and companionship wherever we are. I am currently unable to board pets in my own home as I am traveling. However, I have full availability and can help with your pet in a variety of ways. Just let me know what you need, and we can work something out!

“Sean was amazing for us! We were gone on a vacation for just about a week and left our three pets in his care, our dog can be scared of new peopleand has separation anxiety but Sean was great with him! The daily pictures were a highlight of our day and we felt so much better knowing our pets were in great, experienced hands. We look forward to having him pet sit for us again in the future!”

“Rose did a great job with my very shy and anxious kitty! Normally my cat hides in my bedroom the entire time I have a sitter... because Rose was patient and respectful of her majesty's boundaries, my girl felt comfortable enough to roam around the house, jump up on windowsills, and gaze out the front door - all things she normally doesn't do with a sitter. Definitely will hire Rose again!”

“We had a great experience with Lillie as our sitter. She took great care of our two cats. We were nervous as we left her in charge of our home and our fur babies, but there was zero need to be. She was prompt, professional, kind and caring. She respected our home and loved/cared for our two little gentlemen just as we would. We came home to a tidy house and 2 kitties who were well loved in our absence. She sent us several pictures of each of our boys everyday. They looked happy and we're always in her space so we knew they liked her too. She even left a little bag of treats for our little guys as a parting gift. I will absolutely be booking with Lillie again. I have nothing but the best things to say about her service and communication.”

About: Cats tend to trust me because I approach them with a calm, gentle spirit and allow them to connect with me at their own pace. I don’t force affection or treat their care like a checklist—I pay attention to their personality, comfort, behavior, and individual needs. My years of experience have taught me how to recognize when something may be wrong and how to respond calmly and responsibly. I take following instructions, maintaining routines, securing the home, and keeping owners informed very seriously. Most importantly, I genuinely love cats and care deeply about their well-being. Every cat in my care will be treated with the same patience, protection, and compassion. I’m available most days and weekends. I work from home so my schedule is flexible. Connect with me so we can discuss a schedule that works best for you. I primarily provide pet sitting in my clients’ homes, where cats can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routines. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, fresh water, medication, litter-box care, playtime, companionship, and any special needs. I also provide updates so owners can feel confident that their cats and homes are being well cared for. References from previous in-home pet-sitting clients are available upon request. I generally do not care for cats in my own home, but I may consider special circumstances on a case-by-case basis. My home has multiple levels, no children, and a securely fenced backyard. I provide grooming services for cats only and on a case by case basis. I do no clip nails. I have years of experience bathing and properly cleaning cats, both my own and strays. I can provide the service for a small fee.

He did multiple daily checks that involved several tasks, including litter management, feeding, playing, and also took care of our plants. He was easy to get ahold of and is great to work with. Will definitely be using him again.”

About: Hi, my name is Sam. I am in the Albuquerque area and would be happy to help you with your pets. I have tons of experience with animals including volunteering for cat adoption days with PACA, rehoming abandoned animals, petsitting special needs animals, fostering, agility and show dog training, and behavioral training with dogs. I also have a passion for my fish hobby :) due to this app being a little odd with keeping a lot of our pay lets discuss on our own time a good solid plan ahead with your furry friend that way everyone is happy :) I am available in the afternoons up to the early evenings. However, I can make an exception for some early morning check-ins or walks. Just feel free to ask first! Because I work from home, I am more flexible when it comes to extended periods of pet-sitting as long as I have a quiet place to work. Whatever instructions and guidance I am given I am happy to respect and adhere to those rules when it comes to being in someone else's space or if they are coming to my house. In my own home, it is calm, quiet, with a gated area in the back patio with a garden. The animals are free to move about in the house. I do not have a backyard per se but the back patio is a decent size and secure for dogs to do their business and relax for a bit. I do not have animals of my own at the moment.

“Tracy was exceptional. She showed sincere care for our aging cat, who has chronic kidney disease. He took a turn for the worse before Tracy was scheduled to care for him, but we were relieved to leave him in such capable hands. Tracy has medical experience with pets and was able to give our cat subQ fluids to help stabilize him. This level of expertise is rare among pet sitters. I can't recommend Tracy highly enough.”

About: Woof! Meow! Hello, my name is Al and I hope to soon meet you and your pet. My background in animal care began in high school when I was a dog sitter for local families during the summer while they were on vacation, and from there my passion grew! I am personable and calm, equipped to support each animal's unique needs, and thorough in my care and attentiveness. I am a proud parent to two cats and a senior rabbit at this time, and until I can bring a dog into the bunch I like to spend my time looking after yours with the same love and dedication. No matter how small or large, shy or outspoken, all pets welcome! This fall, I have very open availability while I acclimate to the surrounding area after a cross country move. I am aspiring to be open for requests in many different neighborhoods and different types of animals to get to better know the landscape. I am a non-smoker. I am respectful of house rules and ways of doing things and will defer to your instruction, while also leaning on my expertise in times where flexibility is needed. Adept to behavioral quirks, I take supporting your training protocols seriously and will always ask at first meetings what your animal is receptive to and how to respond when changes in their routine emerge. Especially experienced with separation anxiety, I am diligent in ensuring as I build trust with you I am also building trust with your pet and communicating with you throughout the sit.

“Rachel was awesome! She was extremely accommodating, and communicative. This was my first time needing a pet sitter, so I was extremely nervous, but she eased my nerves and made it easier to be away! I was confident that my kitties were in good hands. All was perfect when we came home, and the kitties were happy to see us!”

Laura consistently provides top tier pet care. She brings all the love, the entertainment and essential knowledge to provide for my pet family. My faith in her to care for my pets with the highest quality is met and Laura often exceeds expectations. I just love to read her daily updates and numerous photos. She always makes me smile and often laugh out loud

August gives both kitties the kind of attention they want. One is playful and the other is quiet but loves his rubs. They each get what they need and seem quite content when we are gone. Communication is easy and when our return flight was delayed, a quick text was: sent and the kitties got an extra visit. Have been very happy with the care August gives our two little ones. Definitely a 5 star.

Amber dropped in to feed/play with our cats while we were away and she was fantastic! We received the best check-in descriptions and pictures we’ve ever gotten. Our cats really liked her (even our less affectionate cat warmed up to her)! I’d give Amber a 12 out of 10!

Cerah took excellent care of my two cats while I was out of town! Even though they only needed drop-in dinner visits, she handled the task with aplomb. She was very communicative during our visits (even when my shy cats didn't give her much to report) and I especially appreciated her making time before we left to connect and go over their routines, their layout, and where we keep our supplies. It really put my mind at ease while we were away.

Kathryn was responsive, flexible, and available on short-notice to do drop-in visits for my 2 cats. She was reliable, a great communicator, and happy to give one of my cats extra TLC once he started feeling my absence after about 5 days into a 2-week trip. I'll gladly use her services again and would recommend giving her a try if you need someone who loves cats and really gets them. She also handled their medication, playtime, and daily needs like a pro!

Celeste is hands down the best pet sitter we ever had. We were so worried because we had an unexpected trip come up and were scrambling to find help with our pets. Celeste stepped up and helped us in our time of need. She went above and beyond to show us our pets were loved and well taken care of. I cannot sing her praises enough 💛💛💛

FAQs for Cat Sitting - North Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in North Valley is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $39 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 463 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across North Valley. 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 .

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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 , 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.
