“This is the first time Alecia has watched our cat!!! What a gift she is. On time, thoughtful, goes the extra mile. Will continue to work with her as long as I can! She is awesome!”
“Lyndi provided help at last minute when one of our mischievous kitten Milo escaped his room. Lyndi service was exceptional and provided the emergency call even though it was not part of her services. Thank you Lyndi! Life saver!”
About: I’ve been fortunate to have amazing neighbors, friends, and church families give me the chance to love their fur friends. I grew up in a big household with not enough room for one of our own. Being able to connect with their dogs have shown me a different type of love. I work 8am-4pm Monday through Friday and free on weekends! I work in Holladay and I’m willing to take my hour lunch off to go check on them if within a reasonable distance. Super flexible with a notice in advance :) I am very organized and some would say a clean freak in general. I treat others homes twice as good as my own because I respect them that much. Tell me how you like to train and care for your pets I will do the same and more.
About: If I had to choose between a room full of people and a room full of animals, I’m choosing the animals. Every single time. I’ve been an animal person for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely believe that caring for someone’s pet is a huge responsibility. I have two beloved cats of my own who are my entire world, so I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else’s care. I don’t take that trust lightly. My cats are strictly indoor cats, and I’m extremely attentive to keeping them safe and secure. I know how important it is to follow each pet’s specific routine and boundaries—from making sure doors are never accidentally left open to keeping potential hazards out of reach. The little details matter, and when it comes to animals, I’m pretty obsessive about them. I’m the person who notices if your pet’s water bowl is getting low, double-checks the door before leaving, makes sure there isn’t a rogue hair tie or piece of string within reach, and will happily send you way too many photos because I know you want to see your fur baby. 🙂 I’m naturally very organized, attentive, and probably a little Type A when it comes to animal safety and wellbeing, which is exactly how I think it should be! I also have a huge soft spot for pit bulls. I absolutely adore their goofy, sweet, big-hearted personalities. But honestly, I love creatures of all kinds. I’m the person who will carefully escort a spider outside rather than squish it. Every animal deserves kindness, patience, and respect. During the week, I work from home in a corporate role, which gives me flexibility in my schedule and allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m reliable, communicative, and will treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would expect from someone caring for my own. Whether your pet is a social butterfly who wants to play, a couch potato who just wants company, or a little more cautious and needs someone to earn their trust, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Your pets are FAMILY. And I’d be honored to take care of yours. 💚🐾 I work from home in a corporate role Monday-Friday, so I have a flexible schedule and availability throughout the day. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. I love having animals as part of my day, so they’ll get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship rather than being left alone for long stretches. I’m extremely detail-oriented when it comes to animal safety and care. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and any specific instructions you leave. I’m especially mindful of doors, gates, leashes, and potential hazards, and I’ll always treat your home and your pets with the same care I would my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My two cats are strictly outdoors and not once have they ever gotten out, nor have I ever not been aware of where they are at all times.
“Bridgette was very communicative and reliable even under difficult circumstances, and had great insights into my cat's health and well being. Very responsible and went the extra mile on the house. Will hire again.”
“I got so busy that I had forgotten I had given Chloe only partial medication instructions. She figured out the rest and got our kitties taken care of. She does a great job with the routine things and goes above and beyond.”
“Diana is great! I booked her somewhat last-minute when my original sitter fell through. She looked after my cat by doing drop-in visits twice a day. She even went the extra mile to clean up some dishes I had left in the sink. Super professional and very caring. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Cameron is THE BEST! She’s always the first person I ask when I need house sitting/caring for my male Ragdoll cat. Cameron is the most caring, reliable and dedicated person to ever look after my cat Draco who has IBD and is on special diet. My cat Draco LOVES her, and gets very excited to see her every time. She treats Draco like her own and I am always relaxed knowing she is watching him whenever I’m gone on trips. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Ashlyn was wonderful! She knew exactly how to approach our cat and made her feel comfortable and safe. She sent us comprehensive updates and photos while we were away, which gave us great peace of mind. When we arrived home, our cat was happy and not stressed at all, so Ashlyn clearly did a wonderful job caring for her. I feel like our cat is already missing Ashlyn! 😊 We would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her care for our cat again.”
“Ashlie and Tyson took the best care of our kitty. They were so caring and attentive with everything and gave her the best snuggles while we were gone. We will definitely be using them again. Thank you!”
About: I have had family dogs that I have fed, bathed, and walked for over a decade. During college I briefly had a dog of my own that I taught basic commands. I currently works part time as a barista early in the morning. This flexibility allows me to drop in at anytime of day-morning or night. I am capable of following all instructions you have for caring for your dog. I love going on walks, especially when accompanied by a pup.
About: I am currently a proud pet parent to two dogs and a cat - a 12 year old hound/retriever mix, a 6 year old Aussie, and a 15 year old Siamese cat. My pets are part of my family, and I would love to take care of yours while you are at work or away. Whether your have athletes or couch potatoes, I look forward to meeting you and your Best Furry Friend(s)! I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies/kittens and seniors. I am currently taking a work break, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. For in-home boarding, I will be with your pets most of the time, though I may need to step out to run errands etc. When we schedule boarding services, I will ask about your pets' specific needs for walks, potty breaks etc. and work my schedule to accommodate. My aim is to stick as closely to their regular routines as possible while you are away. I treat your pets and home like they are my own. Whether I am helping with check-ins during the day, or staying in your home while you are away, my priority is the safety and comfort of your pets. This includes ample exercise and walks, scratches and love, and making sure that they are properly fed, attended to for medications, and are let out for potty breaks. Dogs will be leashed at all times for any walks, and under my direct supervision while outside in their own yards.
About: Growing up with pets, I always had responsibilities surrounding them! My parents made sure that I knew how to properly take care of and love our animals! Aside from taking care of my own pets, I have been a kid nanny for families with pets as well! I have a lot of experience with taking care of and loving other peoples pets and have not had any issues with that. I work from home so my schedule has a lot of versatility! My evenings are typically free after 4pm and weekends typically free as well! I live with other people, so when it comes to my own pets, they are also well taken care of when I am away, so this isn't any conflict there! Aside from what my profile says about my availability (the options are vague to choose from) I would want to discuss deeper on what type of time commitment you are expecting and how I can offer that to you! I would not be able to take care of pets at my home. When I am taking care of your pets, I will take care of them how you ask! If I have concerns or conflicts, I will bring them up to you right away! I know how nerve wracking it can be to put your pets in the care of someone else, so when I am watching your pets, they are my number one priority. I am very plan oriented and can successfully juggle different schedules and situations!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Oakdale
Simply the best!! Audreylee has helped take care of my cats on many occasions and always goes above and beyond. She cares for my cats and communicates exceptionally well about their status and well-being while I’m away. Truly grateful to have connected with her via Rover. She will always be my #1 choice!
Isabelle did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats while we were away for a week! She went above and beyond helping with mail, packages, and other things around the house. Most importantly, she spent plenty of quality time with our cats and made sure they were happy and well cared for. We’d absolutely book her again!
Chris seemed very attentive and reliable when it came to learning everything I was asking for, and making sure my cats stayed happy & healthy! He made fast friends with two of my cats, and left good reason to believe he was treating my 3rd with the proper care and patience, when I read his updates. He takes great photos and was easy going about an additional request I had for him that made my trip out of town the bee's knees - even though it was outside the scope of normal "cat" needs.
Very great communication and most of all I felt comfortable leaving my Zara with her. Diana knew all of the right questions to ask and was very courteous with keeping the house clean. Zara does not like most sitters and somehow Diana was able to get her to come out, play, and receive treats which made me so happy. We will definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Oakdale is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 604 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 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
