“Jodi was awesome! My doggies loved her and she did an amazing job with them. She came and met the dogs prior to caring for them for the first time so I felt very comfortable with her. I highly recommend her. I will definitely call her for all my pet sitting needs!”

I effortlessly adapt to your pet's unique personality, whether that means endless games of fetch or quiet, cozy companionship for a sweet senior. I am incredibly diligent with feeding schedules, safety, and household rules. Expect regular photo updates, boundless affection, and total peace of mind knowing your pet is in the absolute best hands! I work a hybrid schedule with 2-3 WFH days a week. This means that I can be very flexible with weekday schedules and especially open on weekends. Whether you want a weekend getaway or a weekday check-in, I am more than happy to accommodate in the Dayton area! When caring for pets in your home, my top priorities are keeping your companions safe, comfortable, and strictly adhering to their usual routines. I treat your home with the utmost care and respect—ensuring entryways are always locked, gates are secure, and living spaces stay spotless. For cat households, I'm extra vigilant about double-checking doors, windows, and litter areas, while keeping life completely stress-free for your feline friends.

“Molly Rose was great with our rather nervous senior cat! She took care of everything he needed, and surprisingly got him to play a little bit, which he almost never wants to do with someone he isn't really familiar with. We'll definitely try to book her for any future cat-sitting!”

About: I’ve grown up with a plethora of animals. I’ve wanted to volunteer at the humane society since i was young. I worked at pet land as a kennel tech for roughly 6 months and owned ferrets, birds, cats, and dogs. I’m currently a senior in high school saving up for college: I get out early from school and entirely free from weekends. During the week evening visits are all i’d be available for. Weekends whenever is needed. I have experienced with all kinds of animals. Troublesome dogs to cats, even ferrets and birds. So any accommodation of worry that you need i can handle.

About: With a degree in psychology and public health, I bring a unique blend of clinical observation, medical literacy, and deep empathy to pet care. My experience spans 15 years of senior dog palliative care (including kidney disease management), chronic heart condition monitoring, and rescue rehabilitation. I practice a strictly non-punitive, preventative approach—reading subtle physical and behavioral cues to address root causes of stress rather than symptoms. Whether managing complex medication schedules, supporting anxious rescues, or caring for reptiles, I treat every animal with proactive, unconditional, and attentive care designed to help them thrive. My schedule is structured to offer dedicated, high-attention and present care. I am regularly available for weekend house sitting & extended stays, with flexible availability for weekday evening drop-ins and walks. Because I manage my booking calendar proactively, I only accept clients when I can be fully present and attentive to their pet's routine. I keep my availability up-to-date on my profile so you can always book with confidence. To ensure complete safety and individual focus, I do not host pets in my home. In your home, I provide a patient, peaceful, and fully present environment prioritizing your pet's needs without digital distractions outside of regular updates. I am expert at reading body language, respecting boundaries, and maintaining non-punitive, calm routines. I encourage home cameras for your peace of mind and provide thorough photo/video updates. Neighborhood walks are tailored strictly to comfortable, permitted areas at your pet’s natural pace.

About: All my life I've been interested in animals. I grew up with a dog, a cat, and a snake, and my work in the field has involved all sorts of animal husbandry, from shearing sheep to catching alligators or banding songbirds. Sometimes I feel I understand animals better than people which helps me provide specialized one-on-one care to meets your beloved pet's needs. I want to ensure that they feel as safe, comfortable, and well-loved with me as they do with you! I'm currently taking some online classes, so my schedule is pretty flexible! Right now I have a lot of time Fridays-Mondays which I would love to spend taking care of some special pets. I don't have access to a fenced-in yard currently and would not be able to host a dog to the best of my ability. I've taken care of cats at my house, however, and have found that they quickly feel at ease in my home environment. My kitty passed away last year, unfortunately, but I am home often and will provide as much company and attention as your pet desires. I want them to know they have a friend in me.

About: I've owned dogs all of my life and can provide excellent care of your dogs. They will get plenty of love and play time as well. I currently work from home and will be able to give your dogs plenty of attention. They will fit right in with us in our home. My dog is allowed to go outside on the leash because he is old and does not go very far anymore, but I can keep your pets on a leash while in my care. I can also crate your dog.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my strong experience working with dogs and puppies of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with pets belonging to family and friends, which helped me build a solid foundation of hands-on experience with dogs in everyday home environments. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need while learning routines like potty training, crate training, leash walking, and basic commands. I also enjoy helping reinforce positive behaviors through structure, repetition, and lots of encouragement. For adult dogs, I adapt easily to their personality—whether they are high-energy and need plenty of exercise or more relaxed and prefer a calm routine. I also have experience with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, and behavioral cues, so they feel secure and understood while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my availability in the afternoons and evenings. Since I work part time, I have ample time during the day to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy spending my evenings going on walks, which would make it easy and consistent for me to provide daily exercise and outdoor time. I also look forward to using my free time for play, feeding, and bonding activities that help build trust and comfort with pets. In my home or a client’s home, I provide pet care with consistency, attentiveness, and respect for the animal’s routine and comfort level. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication instructions if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. I make sure pets always have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean, safe environment. I prioritize daily exercise and enrichment through walks, playtime, and interaction suited to the pet’s age, energy level, and personality. I also focus on building trust through calm, patient handling and positive attention. In a client’s home, I am mindful of maintaining the space exactly as instructed, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand the importance of routine, so I do my best to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for the pet while their owner is away. Overall, my approach is to care for each pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and responsible care tailored to their individual needs

Jody was wonderful. She did a home visit to meet our animals prior to accepting the booking, which was helpful to all of us. While we were gone we received updates with adorable pictures of our 2 dogs and 2 cats, so we could see how they were doing. Jody even ran the clean up towels, since there were a couple of accidents to be dealt with, through the wash so we wouldn't have to deal with stinky towels when we got home. That was an awesome and welcome surprise, for sure! We would certainly call on her again.

Berke was great with our pets. We had a last minute rover change and he was so quick and willing to help watch over our boys. There were plenty of updates in both messages and photos, lots of fast communication, and he took care of my dog that needed medication. I would highly recommend him and will be happy to have him as a sitter again.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Northridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Northridge is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 198 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 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.

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 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.
