About: I am currently a veterinary assistant student, taking care of your animals will give me the opportunity to be able to expand my school experience and give you confidence in me and my capabilities when it comes to taking care of your pets. I am currently a student, my class schedule is Monday-Thursday therefore i am not able to do overnight stays during the week. Friday-Sunday i am completely free and will be able to take care and put my full attention to your pets. I will be available to do drop ins and walks during the week anytime before 5pm. I know how to work well with animals and give them the time they need, i will work to gain the pets and owner’s trust. I know how to handle animals if they are misbehaving and need to be put in a time out if anything of the sorts were to happen.

“Josh was a life saver for us! We just moved to California and needed someone we could trust to watch our cat and he was exactly what we were looking for! He was so helpful to us, allowing us to still be able to travel and do what we need to do and know that our cat has a friend to look after them while we are away. So grateful for Josh, he is a must book, you won’t regret it!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the patience and genuine care I have for every animal I meet. I’m gentle with pets of all ages, personalities, and abilities, and I’m never afraid to get down on the floor and take the time to earn their trust, especially with shy, nervous, senior, or special-needs pets. I’ve rescued and cared for animals in some pretty challenging situations, including dogs on the streets experiencing severe heat stroke and emergencies during Southeast Missouri’s extreme weather. I’ve also fostered kittens who were sick and needed extra care, patience, and nurturing before they were healthy enough to be adopted. I’ve always had a dog since the day I was born. I started raising my own dogs since I was about 9 years old, and I’ve been involved in house training, crate training, maintaining daily routines, and administering medications according to their prescribed instructions and labels. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure pets stay on their normal schedules while their owners are away. I’m also a clean freak, and I believe taking care of your home is part of taking care of your pets. I’ve personally experienced coming home to dirty litter boxes, pet vomit, stains, and messes that weren’t cleaned up after previous sitters. That’s something I never want a pet owner to experience. If your pet makes a mess, I clean it up. I’ll keep litter boxes maintained, clean up accidents, vomit, tracked-in dirt, and other everyday pet messes, and leave your home the way I found it, or better. To me, pet sitting isn’t just about making sure a pet is fed and let outside. It’s about making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and understood while their person is away. I treat every pet as an individual and take the time to learn their routines, quirks, and what makes them feel most at home. Animals deserve the world in the short time we get with them, and I want to make sure I give them that. I recently relocated back home to Temecula from my college town in Missouri and currently have a very flexible schedule while I look for a part-time job. I’m a stay-at-home fiancé and pet mom to two dogs and two cats, so I’m already home caring for pets every day! My pets are all spayed/neutered, up to date on their vaccines, and social. I’m currently available throughout the day, with my only regular commitment being about two hours at the gym. This gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets and work around their routines. My dogs wake me up at 6am on the dot to go potty and eat breakfast, and at 5pm they are ready for dinner. I value my pets’ routines because without them, I wouldn’t have a routine myself I have a fully fenced backyard where my inside dogs are able to safely go outside throughout the day. I pay close attention to their behavior and cues-if they’re telling me they need to go out, I let them lead me to the backyard rather than making them wait. I have a 35-lb female Terrier/Lab mix and an 80-lb female Silver Lab. Both spayed and up-to-date on their shots. My Silver Lab is a gentle giant who was especially popular with the “littles” at doggy daycare, often spending time with the 10–25 lb dogs. She was also raised around my grandma’s Yorkies, so she’s very comfortable around smaller dogs. Your pet will always be treated like the VIP! I’ll make sure your pet gets priority during playtime and attention, even if that means taking the ball away from my own dog so your pup gets a turn!🎾

About: I have had dogs as a part of my family growing up, and love spending time with them! I am an all around animal lover, and have a very kind and caring personality. Right now Wednesday/Friday are my only two days that I will typically be unavailable! Tuesday/Thursday I can be available depending on the time. Sat-Monday I’m free! Let me know what your cute animals need :) I am more than happy to follow any directions necessary to follow your pet’s routine and take care of them any way they need! Of course, I take their safety very seriously and am an open communicator. As a pet parent myself, I know the attention and kindness animals need.

About: I have 2 dogs of my own and have always loved animals and work this them all the time. I also work for a friend who does fostering for cats. I also have the wag! App and use it as well, you can find me on there and book a service through there too. I’m currently a full time student at MSJC but have a few days off so I am willing to pick up some work on the days I have free and work with furry friends. I have a fenced off yard with 2 friendly dogs, I have a pool in the backyard that is regularly cleaned (not very deep and easy to get out of for most dogs) I have chickens but they are in a cage so no contact can be made. I do have neighbors with dogs but the fence is secure and no one can touch each other. In addition I have 5 cats who all love dogs (might be scared but not mean).

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, so I'm naturally comfortable with their everyday needs. I've sat informally for neighbors before and I'm happy to walk dogs as well as care for them at home. I may be newer to formal sitting, but I bring patience, attentiveness, and a lifetime of comfort and experience with dogs. I currently go to school Monday through Fridays in the morning but I have free afternoons and weekend! I am not available for boarding but am more than happy to take care of a home as well as some adorable animals! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for a pet. Since I offer care in the client's home, I follow your routine closely, feeding schedules, medication if needed, and any house rules you have. I double-check that doors and gates are secure so pets can't get out, and I stay attentive and present during the time I'm there, whether that's a visit, a walk, or overnight care in your home. I treat every pet with the same calm, genuine attention I'd want for my own, and I'm always happy to check in with updates so you have peace of mind while you're away.

About: Hi, I’m Aaliyah! I have loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets taught me very early on that every animal has a unique personality and specific needs. I know how important it is to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away. Because I currently work part-time, my schedule is incredibly flexible! This means I have plenty of open daytime hours, flexible breaks, and open days to dedicate entirely to your pups and pets! I strictly follow familiar daily routines, maintain open communication with regular photo updates, and treat the client's home with the utmost cleanliness and respect so everyone feels completely at ease! :)

About: We’re experienced with dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a slower pace, extra patience, medication, or a closely followed routines. What sets us apart, though, is how we care. We’re calm, observant, detail-oriented, and very comfortable following the little routines that make your pets feel secure. We notice if appetite is different, when a walk needs to be shorter, when the shy cat would rather make the first move, or when an animal companion simply needs a little more company that day. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine and is something we plan around with intention. We keep our schedule flexible so we can give each pet the time, attention, exercise, companionship, and supervision they actually need, without rushing through care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we treat both the animal and the home with a high level of care, respect, and discretion. We take time to understand each pet’s normal routine, temperament, boundaries, and environment so we can recognize what is typical for them and respond thoughtfully if something changes. For walks and visits, safety comes first. We pay close attention to weather, surroundings, energy levels, other animals, and any individual sensitivities or triggers. We follow the household’s established preferences while also using experienced judgment when conditions call for an adjustment. We are careful with home access, doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, medications provided by the owner, and any special household protocols. We also believe trust means keeping clients informed without making them feel like they need to manage us from afar. Our goal is simple: your pet should feel secure, understood, and well cared for, and you should feel confident knowing both your pet and your home are in responsible hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Pala is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $22 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 2,298 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Pala. 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 Pala. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 , 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.
