About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’ve also bottle-fed a litter of puppies, which required constant attention, patience, and a strong sense of responsibility—something I bring to every pet I care for. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including shy or high-energy pets. I take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I prioritize clear communication and reliability, and I’m always happy to provide updates so you know your pet is in good hands. My goal is to make the experience as easy and worry-free as possible for both you and your pet. I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I typically provide care throughout the day, including feeding, walks, playtime, and regular potty breaks every 4–8 hours (or more frequently if needed and discussed in advance). I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means extra exercise, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to a specific schedule. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Because I travel locally, I prioritize nearby bookings to ensure I’m always on time and able to give your pet the attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications (if needed), and any specific care requirements. I take the time to understand each pet’s behavior and boundaries to ensure they feel secure and stress-free. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and in order while you’re away. I’m mindful of doors, gates, and surroundings to prevent any escapes or unsafe situations. I also prioritize clear communication and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Alayna took great care of my pups on a stressful day! I was very thankful for her expertise, I definitely recommend her to anyone who needs help with their animals!”
“Kelly did a great job with my dog, she played with him and she was good at communication. She followed all my instructions well and sent updates during each visit!”
“Bridgette was very communicative and attentive to our cat while we were out of town. Our cat really seemed to love her (we got a few videos of our kitty and could tell!).”
“Heaven did two drop in visits for me and sent amazing updates! She is very friendly with a calming presence. She was able to come at odd hours which is so appreciated! She sent photos where I could tell the dogs were both very calm and happy. If I ever need her help again I won’t hesitate to reach out!”
“Chris took care of my bunny on short notice, which I really appreciate! He was able to come over same day to grab a key/go over Bij’s routine. He was very communicative and left me detailed messages after his visits, I would ask him to watch my pet again!”
“Zanubia was super communicative and took good care of our 3 cats. She kept us up to date on which ones she saw (we have 2 that regularly hide with new people) and took cute photos of the ones she saw. Would use again and would recommend!”
“Audreylee & Austin are amazing, second time having them back. Our cat warmed up to them immediately, and they are dependable and great people. Will definitely use again. Thank you!!!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and it was a great experience. We certainly hope to use Sarah again in the future. We appreciate her quick communication, flexibility, and pictures of our pups while we're away. Thanks again.”
“Jaina is absolutely amazing. This is the second time that she has cared for my cats and they LOVE her. I would definitely recommend Jaina to anyone who wants to ensure their pets are cared for.”
“Lyndi was amazing! She was very attentive and kept me up to date with notes and pictures. I appreciate her so so much and hope to use her again on my travels! Thank you so much, Lyndi!!!”
“Angelica was recommended to us by our normal cat sitter when she wasn’t available. She did a great job filling in and took charge of coordinating with our normal cat sitter for details since we were unavailable on travel. Thanks for the help!”
“Madison was a fantastic sitter. She took excellent care of our three cats, was responsible, and communicated effectively. She even watered some plants for me, which I greatly appreciated. We would definitely work with her again.”
“Camille was a blessing for our family! She was flexible with our crazy schedules and was always available when we needed her. She gave us peace of mind that our furbaby was in good hands when we were away. Finding someone you trust to come in to your home and take care of your animals isn’t always an easy decision, but I knew from our first meeting Camille was the perfect match for us. She cared for our dog for close to a year before we moved, and we wish we could take her with us!”
“Alecia has been such a life saver for helping with my 5 month old puppy since I work full time. She takes such good care of him and is great about communicating any concerns she has and giving me thorough updates throughout the visits”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Oakdale
Bridgette is amazing!! I’m so grateful we connected last minute before a trip. I was nervous about my cat being especially picky eating, and Bridgette was professional and responsive offering reassurance about her experience working with animals with various needs/was totally comfortable helping give him an appetite stimulant and supporting while I was in and out of service! She introduced some great ideas for Ogden with treats and bird videos. I’d love to work with Bridgette again!
We are so pleased with the care we get from Heaven. Our kitty is very reserved and loves to hide. She isn’t used to company and you would think that her and Heaven were long time buddies. I cannot say enough about how much we appreciate Heaven. We have booked with her several times now and we can always enjoy our vacation knowing everything is fine at home. Her communication is wonderful and we cannot wait for our next trip.
We have three cats, and one of them, Charlie, is extremely shy. He has never come out for anyone except me and my husband in the 4 years we've had him, so we were fully expecting him to stay hidden all week. To our surprise, not only did he come out for Sarah, but he fell in love with her! That alone speaks volumes about her patience and the loving energy she brings. She took amazing care of all three of our cats, kept us updated with photos (she takes the best ones!!) and messages, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was so comforting knowing they were not only cared for, but genuinely loved. Our home itself was also taken care of as she did light cleaning duties (sweeping up litter, etc). If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Sarah is the one. We would trust her with our cats again in a heartbeat and can't recommend her highly enough! This is our first time using Rover, and we definitely found our go-to 🩷
I came home from a week long trip to a very calm kitty. He gets really anxious and leaving town can be tricky. He liked Camille right away and this is the most calm I’ve seen him after a trip (even just weekend ones). I will definitely book with Camille again in the future. Thank you so, Camille!
Christian was amazing! He took such good care of our kitty with a spinal cord injury. He showed genuine compassion and dedication when learning how to care for her. He brought me and my family comfort knowing that she was going to be well cared for while we were gone.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Oakdale on Rover is $18.87 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 2,046 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Oakdale. 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.

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.
