“Shirley has been an amazing help with my dog Tucker. He sadly passed unexpectedly on Oct 29th.. which is the only reason I’m not using Shirley any longer. I would recommend her to anyone i know!”

It was so obvious that my dog was happy and well cared for! and whem my travel olans got delayed, he jumped right in and i didnt have to worry. i highly recommend him!!!!”
“Giana was great! She took care of our two pups for 3 days while we were out of town and was great with communication. One of our dogs is more skittish and people shy and Giana was very patient and willing to try all the tricks to get her outside. I would book Giana again!”
“Sarah is a gem! She's great with our young dog. She takes great care of him and sends us wonderful pics! She's reliable, patient, playful and caring. We're very happy to have her.”
“James was very attentive to all of our pups needs. He was also very flexible as some of our plans had changed on the fly. He was patient (Cash can be skittish) and made sure he was well taken care of. We would recommend James for any pet care needs!”
“Sabrina is very gentle and loving with Susu, I've never seen my cat warm up so fast to a stranger. Sabrina also does an amazing job at effortlessly giving him his required medication, offering him treat rewards, and keeping him happy by giving him enough attention through pets and play time. She's great at making Susu feel less lonely and comfortable, with the way Susu loves sitting on her lap. Will definitely contact her again for future visits!”
“Michael helped us out on short notice and cared for our 2 elderly cats while we were away for a week. He was very professional, sending photos and communicating both AM and PM each day. It did a lot to assure me that my girls were ok while we were gone. My girls were not very social as this was their first time with a sitter, but they were healthy and happy upon our return.”
“Such a nice saver and excellent pet sitter. Ryan went over and behind the call of duty to ensure my trip was stress free and the 3 dogs and cat were well taken care off much love”
“Mykelle did a wonderful job watching our puppy (walking, feeding and administering medication) when we were away for a long weekend. When I first contacted her, she was extremely responsive and we had a meet and greet right away to confirm the dog sitting job. Our puppy Cora really liked her too. I really appreciated all the updates and pictures and excellent communication. Mykelle completely put me at ease as this was the first time that we had been away from our puppy. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”

I currently have 2 dogs and 2 birds and am also caring for a friend's chicks at the moment.

During the summer I am available before 12pm most days and can be available between 12pm and 3pm some days (Varies based on my partners work schedule). Will provide utmost communication and care when entering your home, walking your dogs, and taking care of your fur or feather babies. Happy to do meet and greets to make sure you and your pet feel comfortable. Also happy to provide pictures and In and out times for each visit.
“Karren did a wonderful job caring for our senior dog Daisy while we were away. She sent us photos and detailed reports after every visit, which were so wonderful to receive. In addition to feeding and watering and letting Daisy out for pees and poops, Karren administered Daisy's medication, cleaned up a mess, and brought in our packages. We will most definitely use her again.”
“Julie was fantastic. She took great care of Matcha and was super thorough in following instructions and thoughtful in her care. She was very communicative and ensured we received comprehensive and timely updates. I would highly recommend her to other families looking for pet care.”
“I have been very happy to have found Rebecca. She is extremely caring and a true dog lover. She’s very reliable and makes my life much easier. I have great pleasure working with her and will definitely book her again. I highly recommend her service. Your dog will love her.”
“Kendyl is the best! She is very good at communicating and sending pictures, loves our pets, and takes such good care of them! We ask her to pet sit every time we go away with no worries :)”

Mellony was a perfect cat sitter for our cats while we were away for a week. She took great care of our two cats by feeding them, cleaning up after them, and making sure everything was in order. We originally book one 30-minute visit per day, but Mellony generously offered to come twice a day for 15 minutes each visit so that both cats would get extra attention-without changing any additional fee. We truly appreciate her kindness and dedication. It gave us peace of mind knowing our cats were in such caring and reliable hands. I highly recommend Mellony and would definitely give her 5stat rating for her outstanding service! Thank you Mellony!!
Debbie was so accommodating and super attentive to all of Leo’s needs and care. She asked detailed and informative questions that would help her and Leo during our time away. We have no complaints and would definitely recommend Debs services and we’re looking forward to using her services in the future :)
Sarah did a wonderful job caring for my two munchkins. Both of my cats are senior and the oldest, who is 17 and takes insulin LOVED HER. She was super attentive, thorough, on time, and I loved the after visit summaries that she left. I will most definitely recommend her service and hire again. Thank you Sarah for taking such wonderful care of them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 4,294 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Penn Valley. 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 Penn Valley. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
