About: I’ve been around dogs since I could walk, and I know that every pup has their own unique personality and pace. I’ve had my own dog, Paloma, for five years now, so I’m well-versed in the routine and the responsibility. Whether your dog wants a high-energy trek or just a slow sniff around the block, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’ve got a flexible schedule and a very relaxed approach—I’m just here to make sure your dog has a great, stress-free time while you’re busy. I’m currently in a bit of a transitional period with my schedule, which means I have a lot of flexibility to prioritize your dog's needs. Whether it’s mid-day check-ins, afternoon walks, or weekend sitting, I can easily work around your timing. I'm usually around and available to provide consistent care and plenty of attention throughout the week. I live in a quiet, gated community that provides a secure, low-stress environment for your pup. My home features a private yard and court for safe playtime away from traffic. Beyond that, I live in a very walkable neighborhood and love taking dogs on more scenic adventures. Whether it’s a trip to a local dog park for some socialization or a nature walk to explore local trails, I’m happy to tailor the outing to your dog’s energy level. Having had dogs my whole life and caring for Paloma for five years, I’m always focused on keeping them safe, hydrated, and happy while we explore.

About: I've been a dog lover forever and got my first family dog when I was 12. I have since become his primary owner. Since 15, I've assisted my older brother with dog sitting through Rover, and by 17, I started caring for dogs on my own for family and friends. Whether watching them at their home or bringing them to mine, I provide reliable, loving care for your furry companions. I work part time from home as a writing tutor at CSUN, where I am also a full time student on campus Tuesday to Thursday. In my home, your pets will enjoy a safe, secure environment with a fenced back yard featuring sturdy gates and tall walls, ensuring they can roam freely and safely. The front yard is also fully enclosed with an electric gate for added security. If your dog is accustomed to crate training, I can accommodate that as long as a crate is provided. In addition, I also have a pool on the property. I ensure the pool area is safely monitored to prevent any accidents, and only dogs that are comfortable around water are allowed freely around it. I prioritize comfort, safety, and fun for every pet in my care!

About: I’m a dependable and attentive pet caregiver who understands how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets and home. I’m comfortable feeding pets, refreshing water, giving them attention and playtime, cleaning up after them, and following each owner’s instructions carefully. I will provide updates and photos during every visit so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, playtime, and care routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During each visit, I will carefully follow your instructions, make sure doors and gates are securely closed, refresh food and water, clean up after your pet, and provide attention based on their personality and needs. I will also send photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing. I will treat your home with care and respect at all times.

Geena is amazing with both our small and big dog. They’re both a little bit rumbustious and she definitely handles them with grace and love. You can really tell she loves dogs and takes her job watching over them very seriously. She’s also trustworthy and i felt very comfortable and safe having her come inside my home and watching our dogs. Im very grateful to have found a dog sitter who my dogs look forward to having come over.

About: So many friends and neighbors wanted me to take care of their dogs when i was just a kid cause they knew that i can understand their language. I was taking care of dogs and cats just as a hobby only for people i knew, but decided i can help more pet owners and make everyone’s life easier!! I have experiences with puppies and senior care. You will be receiving really nice photos of your pups🐶 I am at home 24/7 if needed no problem with that, home is fun with a furry baby we can watch movies and cuddle!!! I know that all doggies need different care. I am very good at potty training and obedience training. I also have first aid training🤍 Please read the following before booking either of these services: Day Care means: Between 0-10 hours Boarding means: Between 10-24 hours All of the pets i take care, they are my babies too!! They are all welcome for hugs and most importantly LOVE! For summer period i am free every day and i can start working really early if my client needs. I don’t like to go for walks so late for me and my client’s safety. I have a nice fenced backyard; we mostly play there and hangout i don’t let them out unsupervised. I only walk with leash, sometimes dogs see rabbits or squirrels and chase after them. We don’t want anyone to get hurt or scared 🫶🏻

About: Pet sitting and dog walking were my first jobs at 10 and something I have continued on and off over the years. I have great experience with both cats and dogs such as feeding, hygiene, and keeping my furry friend happy! Currently working part time as a full time student. Although my schedule can be busy I can communicate and compromise! My available days are Mondays, Wednesdays, and Sundays for mornings or evenings. By communicating with you I would like to find what you are most comfortable with to keep your fur baby safe! I can send you updates during care and with supplies provided by you keep a safe and fun environment to create a joyful experience.

Sanaz took wonderful care of my two cats while I was away for two weeks. She visited every day to feed and check on them, and she consistently sent photos and videos that gave me peace of mind while traveling. She was reliable, responsible, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire experience. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats. I would definitely book Sanaz again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

About: For about 20 years, I have taken care of a wide array of pets, including reptiles, cats, and dogs of all sizes. I’ve spent countless hours taking care of dogs ranging from French Bulldogs, Fox Terriers, Pomeranians, to Boxers, Rottweilers, and Great Danes. My schedule allows me to be extremely flexible with when I can take care of pets. I’m available 7 days a week, overnight care, and extended stays. The most important factors of pet care are dependent on the pet itself. Every pet is different and I would tailor my care based on taking in as much feedback as possible from the pet owner. From there, I create an environment that fits that pet to the specifications the owner and I discuss.

About: Hello! My name is Alison & I adore animals :-) Please let me know if it is okay to give your pet a little bag of custom treats & toys to remember me by, I love making animals happy ☺️ Entrusting your wonderful pets with me means allowing them to be in a safe, comfortable & fun environment while you are busy. For my whole life I have always felt very passionate when it comes to animals. I have done my fair share of research on pet care while also having pets of my own in the past. Now more than ever I am excited to care for some amazing creatures and give them my unconditional love & attention. :) I am very energetic & affectionate when engaging with animals! I will love your pet with all my heart & probably grow super attached :-) My schedule is quite open & I would love to discuss scheduling with you. I’m also very flexible when it comes to your pet’s needs. I am open to any & all specific requests in regards to your animals’ comfort or safety. I can be very attentive to details, but I ask that you please let me know anything & everything you need me to know about your pet beforehand! In all my experience in caring for animals, I have found that every pet is very unique - a part of how well I can care for your pet also depends on how communicative & transparent owners are about their specific needs. No request or detail is too small, I would love to know anything you need me to know so you feel secure while using my services. Please also establish with me your preference for frequency of texts/communication, & don’t hesitate to send me a message for any concerns. :)

She also updated me daily about my cat’s mood and health as well. Additionally, Eileen sent lots of pictures and videos each visit, which I greatly appreciated.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Northridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Northridge on Rover is $26.64 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 7,435 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Northridge. 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.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
