“I was a bit nervous entrusting a stranger to our 5 month rescue car but Lijuan made me feel comfortable the entire time. I highly recommend. Our little one was in love! Definitely will book again if need be 🫶🏽”
“Kyle was invaluable by looking after our reptiles on short notice that we were able to have peace of mind while abroad without having to board then. We definitely would recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future.”
“Saemi was so great with our dog! Not only was she super attentive and caring with our pug. She was also very good at checking in and updating us throughout the day which made us more confident he was in very good hands. :)”
“I made sure to Book Dean a few months before my scheduled vacation because Dean is hands-down, without a doubt the best cat sitter. I’ve had many cat sitters in the past and they were all very kind and I felt that my cats were safe with them but it’s different with Dean. When we come home after a long vacation, my cats feel different if they have been watched by Dean. We can tell that they were not only safe and well fed, but they felt loved. Dean brings over handmade cat toys and special treats and engages with them the entire time. We can tell just by the photos how much our cats love Dean. I’m generally a nervous person when it comes to my cats because they are my babies and when we get Rover cards from any other Rover, I immediately have nerves thinking “what if something went wrong”. With Dean, my husband and I have general excitement when we get the Rover card. We are always so excited to see what they have been up to. It’s such a blessing when you know your pets are safe with someone but it’s beyond wonderful when you know they feel loved.”
“Priscilla is great! We feel at ease knowing that she takes such great care of our pug. Makes sure he gets plenty of play and potty breaks and gets hydrated and relaxed.”
“Mike took great care of our two cats once again. Very communicative and sends lots of pictures. Our very elusive cat even came out of hiding to see him. Highly recommended!”
“Namie is wonderful with our two big puppers! We've booked with her before and we'll definitely book with her again! She is very caring, communicative, sends us pics of our girls, and lets us know how everything went during her visit. Thank you Namie!”
“Shelby always takes amazing care of our two cats, sends so many sweet pictures, and I always feel so comforted when we’re out of town and she’s able to stop by. She was so flexible this most recent time because it was for the birth of our daughter, so obviously there were some unknowns in terms of timing of the visits. I hope we continue being able to have Shelby watch our cats whenever we go out of town!!”
“My pup hasn’t really had an appetite but Sophia was able to get him to eat based all my detailed instructions. I really appreciate her help, she’s always ready and reliable.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life. I grew up with a German Shepherd who I helped care for from puppyhood until she passed when I was 18, giving me years of experience with walks, feeding, exercise, and lots of love. My mom prioritized cleanliness so I also know how to keep your dog and space clean. More recently, I’ve cared for a friend’s young Aussiedoodle on five separate occasions, including overnight stays, which gave me experience handling a high-energy dog with a consistent routine and plenty of attention needs. Whether your dog is young or old, my goal is always to provide reliable, attentive care and make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m available on Fridays before 9am and after 4pm (can be flexible in between also) and on weekends I’m pretty flexible for multiple visits / walks per day. I am great at following directions and will respect any wishes you have for your home and pet. I am very conscious that I am caring for a loved one and will be very careful and safe during my time with your pet.
“April is sweet and good at taking care of pets. I trusted her to drop by my home and feed my cats. She is detailed and always notices anything that needs attention in my home. I would recommend her and reach out to her next time!”
“I’ve had the pleasure of Alicia as my cat sitter several times now and I will continue to book with her! She’s always attentive, communicative, and very sweet with my 2 kitties. They always love when she visits and I love seeing the photos & videos Alicia takes!”
About: I’ve been a lifelong cat lover and currently care for my own cat, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention while you’re away. As a legal professional, I’m highly organized, dependable, and detail-oriented. I take instructions seriously, communicate clearly, and make it a priority to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages during each visit. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers a quieter approach, I’ll work at their pace and make sure they receive the care, attention, fresh food and water, litter box maintenance, and companionship they need. My goal is to help your cat feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand that trust is the most important part of pet care. Available Monday through Friday for drop-in visits between 5 PM - 10 PM; M, W, Fri from 6:30 AM - 8 AM; 12-1 PM; 5-10 PM; Flexible schedule on M, W, FRI due to working from home. Available Saturday and Sunday all day for drop-in visits and house sitting. I like stocking my cat’s environment with blankets, beds and toys and offer lots of love and cuddling. I will follow my client’s instructions and preferences to keep their cat comfy and happy.
“She was so good with Jessica. Usually she's super shy with new people and she immediately im ate treats from Anne. Her energy was great. Clearly she has a connection with the animals. It was less hard going on a trip knowing my cat was in good hands. She also sent the cutest photos.”
About: I am a very active person I love to do trail running and hiking. As far as experience goes with my own dogs I have been through training for one because he hated men severely. He has since gotten better. I have open availability at the moment so I am able to take your dog out as needed II really can't wait to take out a dog that loves to run. I have two dogs of my own who are pretty well behaved and I would like to think it is because they are under my care. I am also very particular about what they eat and try to only feed them treats without any weird/artificial products in them. I try my hardest to feed them organically.
“Julien took great care of my shy cat, Scouse! He took pics, made sure his box was clean and gave him his meds. He was very courteous, too! I will definitely be using the services of Julien whenever I need to leave for a while! Thank you!”
“Vicky was absolutely amazing with our furbabies! From the start, she was kind, attentive, and clearly passionate about animals. She kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pets were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—Vicky truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!”
About: I provide loving, reliable dog and cat care in Pasadena and am home full-time, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. I’ve lived with both dogs and cats for many years and am comfortable caring for different personalities from playful pups to senior pets and shy cats. I offer boarding, doggy daycare, dog walking, and drop-in visits, and I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and play or cuddle preferences. I’m especially patient with nervous or shy pets and take the time to build trust at their pace.

I give every pet the attention they need and you can expect frequent photo and video updates during their stay. If you’re looking for a calm, attentive sitter who’s genuinely excited to care for your dog or cat, I’d love to meet you and your furry family member.

I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I keep things cozy and safe, with lots of room for play, rest, and snuggles. Your pet will always be treated like family.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 years old. I have personally lived with 5 cats during my life time and have taken care of dogs outside of my house for friends and family. Of those 5 cats, 3 I have taken care of until they passed away, so I know how to take care of both young and older animals. I am currently a behavior therapist for children with autism. I am a very patient and calm person that extends to both my personal and professional life. It is very important to me to get to have a good relationship with the pet that I am taking care of. I currently work part time as a behavioral therapist for children with autism. I am completely free on the weekends and have time early afternoon and late at night on weekdays to do drop ins or stay the night. I am more than willing to follow any care that is required for the pet in question. I will take the time the play with them, take them on walks, give them food, and medicine if that is something they need. I will make sure they treat your home respectfully as I know from experience that cats and dogs alike enjoy doing things with furniture that they are not supposed to. I will always make sure that your pet is happy and comfortable when around me.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Pasadena is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Pasadena
April is the absolute best!! Our cat loves her and she spends quality time playing and cuddling with him. She also sends great updates and pictures so I am never worried about him when I’m gone. She is quick to communicate and is very friendly and flexible. This was my second time booking with her; so happy to have found such a reliable cat sitter!
If I could give Mari ten stars (or fifty), I would. She is absolutely great. She goes above and beyond. She clearly loves and understands animals, and she bonded with my cat during her introductory visit. My only concern is that my cat might prefer Mari to me henceforth (I'm only half joking.). I am sure she would be fine with dogs too. Hire her and you can be certain your pet is extremely well cared for while you are away.
Shari is truly a gem of a human being. She takes excellent care of my wee fur babies and goes above the request with care of our home, too. One fur baby is a bit shy and Shari’s consistency pays off and my other fur baby is an ambassador and loves Shari’s care and attention. Shari is conscientious, caring, and committed to the care of the animals who she is in charge of - book her now!
Emily was so easy to work with - we had a prep visit and she offered to track all the instructions herself, which I really appreciated. Then when we were gone, our power went out and she was so sweet & willing to find our breaker box to reset it. Our cats loved her, she sent so many fun pictures that made us feel like our babies were happy & safe. Highly recommend - goes above & beyond!
Tianfan is our go to catsitter. We have worked with her multiple times now and she has been amazing! Our cats love her. Thank you so much for taking care of the house and the kitties!! We’ll stay in touch so we can book you again for our next vacation. Thank you!
Diana has pet sit for my cat Mooney several times and she has been great! She sends pictures and is very responsible. She has also been very responsive whenever I reach out which I really appreciate. She has been able to watch my cat on short notice which is huge. Highly recommend!
She was so good with Jessica. Usually she's super shy with new people and she immediately im ate treats from Anne. Her energy was great. Clearly she has a connection with the animals. It was less hard going on a trip knowing my cat was in good hands. She also sent the cutest photos.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Pasadena on Rover is $26.79 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 9,266 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Pasadena. 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 Pasadena. 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.
