“Bergen was amazing with my cat! She kept me updated with photos and messages every visit, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty. She went above and beyond and made sure my cat felt loved and comfortable. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, including birds, rodents, cats, and dogs of all ages. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personality traits, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while you’re away. My friends often joke that I love animals more than people. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive care, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. My primary focus is drop-in visits and house sitting, as many pets are happiest when they can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I follow each pet’s schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention and updates while you’re away. I also offer boarding for pets who do well away from home, providing a safe, comfortable, and caring environment where they’ll be treated like family.
About: I have been raising a cat for more than 8years. I have been cat sitting for friends and neighbors for the longest time as well. I have hosted doggos from friends and neighbors for 3-5 times. I am pretty flexible on weekends. For weekdays, I need to leave for work early, so the visit is preferably after 3pm. On Monday or Thursday I get home after gym sessions so it will be after 7pm I respect all animal’s own personality. I do not get close at first especially if they showed fear or stress. I check food expiration before feeding. I do not go to areas that I do not need to go. I will come by with full covered clothes in case of accidents. I will treat your baby the same way I cherish mine. My boyfriend might come with me if I am taking care of a dog to help out in case.
“Angelica was so sweet with our boy! She made sure he got some outside time and lots of great cuddles. She also made sure to follow all instructions and administered medicine for our senior dog. Macho loved his visit from Angelica!”
About: I offer a unique blend of love and expertise that sets me apart. Not only am I a lifelong animal lover, but I also have experience in basic pet training, ensuring your furry friends follow commands while in my care. Additionally, I provide daily updates and pictures, so you can feel connected and informed while you’re away. Each visit includes personalized playtime tailored to your pet’s unique personality, ensuring they feel loved and engaged. I will give your pets the pampering and attention they deserve! I have an open schedule and will book in advance for vacations and travel dates. I manage my schedule based on the number and type of bookings I have. I live in an apartment in Redwood Shores with access to dog friendly grounds, open space, and walking trails. I tailor my care to your pets individual needs and schedule. All pets should be house trained, and up to date with vaccinations (flea & tick, rabies, etc.).
About: I have pet sat for years, for family and friends. Dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I have been pet sitting on Rover now as well, getting to know so many new pets! I have experience caring for pets with health problems and anxiety problems. I also have experience staying in the pets homes and providing all the care needed. I am a recent grad with lots of time available to take care of your pets! I can house sit and drop in any time to provide the care your pet needs! I can stay the night in clients home to care for their pet. I can walk, feed, and play with the pets for as much time as needed.
About: I've been around animals almost my whole life. I volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, have had cats of my own since 2013, pet sat cats and dogs for friends and family, and have had experience raising kittens as well as experience in TNR. Currently available all day and can be available for evenings and/or overnights if needed. Happy to spend time with your pet when you're not able to so they have company until you return home! As a life long animal lover, I understand pets are more than just an animal, but they're part of the family. I take time to get to know each pet and will do all I can to ensure that they are always safe in my care, whether during a walk or pet sitting in your home.
“Pouneh is awesome. She sent pictures of my cat when she got here and pics of other things I asked for. My cat likes her and I felt comfortable with her being in my home. She really loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone that likes attention to detail and most importantly wants great care for your animal.”
“Xilin&Xiang did an excellent job in taking care of Matz, they came for a meet and greet before the drop in visit, and sent us a lot of pictures and videos, will rebook when we need next time.”
About: I grew up helping my grandpa on his ranch and now as an adult my dog is my bestfriend I thank him everyday for my love for animals! I work 100% remote and would love to have another furry coworker! Also big into running so I’m looking for my next running partner! Would love to take your dog out during the day maybe even at night! My dog is super well behaved but spoiled she thinks she human and I can’t imagine life without her. I treat every dog like they are my own a blessing!
“Criss took amazing care of our kitties. She was very kind, flexible and super easy to communicate with. One of our kitties got an ear infection the day before our trip and Criss was happy to give his medicine while we were away. It was a relief knowing our kitties were in good hands! Highly recommend Criss to take care of your pets and will ask her to help with ours again.”
“Lisa’s done a few drop-ins with my dog (60lb German shepherd mix) and everything’s been great. Lisa is super responsive, punctual, and you can tell she loves doggos! I recommend Lisa for all your pet needs!”
“We had an amazing experience with Xiangling! From the very beginning, communication was clear and reassuring. Bella was shy at first, but she was patient, gentle, and clearly understand cats. Bella felt safe to interact with her at subsequent visits. We came home to a relaxed, happy cat and a clean space, which says everything. With a lot of photos and updates, she gave us real peace of mind while we were away, and we would absolutely book again and highly recommend her to any pet parents!”
About: I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old and have experience caring for a variety of breeds, personalities, and ages. Whether it’s an energetic puppy or a senior dog who needs a little extra patience and attention, I am committed to providing the best care possible and adapting to each pet’s unique needs. When I care for your dog, they will receive plenty of love, attention, and affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I am patient, attentive, and truly enjoy building bonds with the animals I care for. I also have a fur baby of my own, a Golden Retriever, who is full of love, energy, and personality! I am currently home full-time and available for drop-in visits, walks, boarding, and house sitting when needed. I have a flexible schedule, communicate quickly, and am happy to accommodate last-minute bookings. I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and give them all the love and attention they deserve! I just graduated from San José State University, so I have lots of free time and flexibility to give your pups all the love and care they deserve! In both my home and clients’ homes, I make sure pets stay on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I’m very attentive, patient, and organized, and I always make sure pets feel relaxed, safe, and cared for like they’re my own.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was little. I've cared for my own throughout the years as well as walked, house sat, and cared for many others' dogs! My work schedule is different every week but I get mine typically a month ahead of time and can plan accordingly. I'm open to scheduling same day or ahead of time if time allows. As long as care instructions are provided, I will happily follow what is needed for your pet. I believe communication and safety is most important!

“Julissa took such great care of our kitties while we were away! She was on time, attentive, and really took the time to engage with our kitties. Would recommend her to anyone!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Redwood Shores
I cannot recommend this sitter enough! They took absolutely wonderful care of my cat, Anya. They were incredibly responsible and detail-oriented—making sure to refill her dry food, top off her automatic water fountain, and even fill up her extra water bowls. They also gave her the exact treats I left out (freeze-dried treats and Temptations) and spent a long time actively playing with her. In addition, they also sent me the most beautiful, high-quality photos of her! I felt completely at ease. Highly, highly recommend!
Yuemin is the best!! I've booked her so many times and she always does a great job. She sticks to my notes exactly, so I never have to worry about details getting missed. You can tell she truly cares about the cat she's watching, not just clocking in and out. Highly recommend Yuemin!
Xiangling took wonderful care of our cat. She is incredibly patient, caring, and attentive to his needs. Qiuqiu quickly became comfortable with her. Every day, she follows the instructions and do the routines, also send us lots of photos and videos, along with thoughtful updates about how Qiuqiu was doing. Seeing him so relaxed and happy gave us huge peace of mind. Qiuqiu sometimes pees on the sofa so we always put pad on our sofa. She adjusted the shape and placement of the pad to help prevent accidents. It wasn’t something we specifically asked her to do—it was simply her paying close attention to his habits and finding a thoughtful solution. That level of care really stood out to us. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Xiangling to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive cat sitter. We will definitely book with her again!
Pouneh is awesome. She sent pictures of my cat when she got here and pics of other things I asked for. My cat likes her and I felt comfortable with her being in my home. She really loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone that likes attention to detail and most importantly wants great care for your animal.
Chloe took wonderful care of my cats while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about their well-being. I received regular updates and photos. Both cats looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned home. I would definitely book with Chloe again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
Patrycja is amazing! This is the second time she has watched Chicken Nugget and he absolutely loves her. She is absolutely incredible with him, is very communicative, and takes great care of not just him but our entire house. She absolutely goes above and beyond! I will definitely be using her in the future.
Julissa is wonderful! She took good care of my cat’s needs while we were away. Our cat is shy that he always hid away when strangers were in the house. But surprisingly he came to greet Julissa when she visited and even stayed close to her the entire time! That was the FIRST TIME we’ve ever seen! So she must have some magic that could make our cat very comfortable. Will rebook in the future!
I've booked with Natalie twice now to help take care of my cat Shadow. Natalie is great! She takes a lot of great photos, remembers the little details for care instructions, and respectful when being in your home. She also helped to take in my unexpected packages. Would definitely book again when I need someone to watch my cat!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Redwood Shores on Rover is $33.3 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 6,568 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Redwood Shores. 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.
