“This was my first time using Rover and I found Zapphora. She set up a meet and greet. She was on-time and my cat took to her right away. Zap is very personable and easy to talk to. She communicated with me for each visit. I had her come 2 times a day for 4 days. My Kitty is my baby, I felt so comfortable knowing that Zap would be checking on her. I am thankful for Rover connecting me to her. I will definitely ask for her for any future travels. Thank you Zap!”
“Eli was great! I needed someone to come by daily to feed my fur babies while I was on vacation & her response time was quick. She was right on time each day to feed my dogs & cat, she spent extra time with them giving them some love & she even picked up after them! Eli was very sweet, caring & professional & I would highly recommend her.”
“Quetzaly went above and beyond while I was away! She was incredibly thorough and responsible. She cared for my cat and turtle’s needs :)! I will definitely be using your services in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in the area!”
“Gwen was wonderful with our three pups! Great communication, considerate, thoughtful, caring, and even brought them some extra goodies. We look forward to booking again in the future :)”
About: I’m a dedicated dog mom with hands-on experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I have 2+ years of experience with puppies, including potty training, basic routines, and helping them adjust to new environments. I also have 3+ years of experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medication and providing gentle, attentive care. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own. Pet care naturally fits into my routine because I’ve always been a dog mom. I currently have a dog of my own, so daily care, walks, and attention are already part of my lifestyle. I have a consistent schedule and make time each day to ensure pets get the care, exercise, and attention they need. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I make sure all pets are fed on schedule, have constant access to fresh water, and are always supervised in a safe environment. During walks, I stay attentive to surroundings and your pet’s behavior to ensure they feel secure and get the right amount of exercise. I follow any specific instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, or special care needs. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 12. I grew up with cats and love their personalities. I have one kitty now, his name is Ricky. I first provided dog/house-sitting services for my professor in college for about 5 days where I fed, played and walked her lovely Border Collie. I began to cat sitting/drop ins for my brother and sister-in-law two years ago while they were away on vacation in the summer and have been doing it since. I am happy to care for both cats and doggos alike. I work a full time job, but can provide drop in services in the evenings for your pets while you’re away or make arrangements to cat/dog sit in your home. I am also available weekends! My availability will reflect on the calendar. I abide by your house rules and preferences when house sitting your pet in your home. If your pet gets anxious with new people around, I think it’s always best to have me meet them with you before you leave. I am happy to provide daily updates and send you photos. If there is any doubt about your pets needs, I’ll be sure to communicate those with you directly.

About: Through volunteering at an animal shelter, I’ve had the opportunity to work with many kinds of dogs. From senior dogs to puppies! All of which I am capable of caring for. I’m currently a full time student at RCC, I major in music so I have a flexible schedule that can accommodate any of my clients demands. I will play with your pets and give them unconditional love and affection. They will receive a walk and a free treat. If there are special needs or requests, I ask you to let me know.

About: Hi! My name is Sherleen and I love dogs and have always grown up with them. I had a childhood chihuahua that I took care of for over 15 years. I now have a malte poo and a pug that I’ve been raising for over 11 years since before they could be weaned from their mom. You can imagine the nights waking up to feed them like human babies! I’ve picked up doggie accidents that seemed like natural disasters and have groomed and bathed my dogs since having them. I’ve cared for dogs from shelters who have trust issues around humans, dogs with behavioral issues and health issues. This includes giving them routine medication around the clock, dedicating time to gaining trust, or as simple as them needing help cleaning themselves after using the restroom. I own 2 Brachycephalic dogs so I also understand the attention those breeds require. Personally, my pug is allergic to fleas and ticks so my house and yard are flea and tick free for her safety! I am a college student who’s doing classes online this summer and can 100% dedicate attention and care. Dogs are our babies and deserve nothing less! I currently work with students as an orchestra tutor and a coach working with students ranging of ages. I work around schedules for students and I can do the same for people needing pet sitting! As a school district worker I am required to do background checks and fingerprints to be a teacher, I understand having a stranger take care of your dog can be stressful but with this knowledge I hope I can ease some of your minds. As a dog owner it’s only essential to give your dog attention, interaction and above all, patience. Dogs like playing, walking or just chilling with their owners and those things vary between dogs! Some have way more energy than other dogs and it’s important to know what they need especially since they can’t talk for themselves. In my household I have a yard that my dogs stay outside for the majority of the day. When bringing in new dogs, I will keep your dog/s indoors and take care of their needs at all times with me so in the case they’re not used to other pups I have a barrier.
“Wonderful! Super nice and sweet and so good with pets! She walks my German shepherd and she immediately loved her! I also have kitties and she made friends with her! I 100 % trust her with my furry babies! Lucky to have found Destiny 🫶🏽♥️♥️”
About: I already love your furbabies, we just haven't met yet! ❤️❤️❤️ Many people call me a "Dog Whisperer," and while I don’t claim the title, animals respond to my calm, intuitive presence. I bring emotional attunement, patience, and loving structure to every visit. Whether your baby is playful, shy, or needs extra TLC, I honor their unique personality. Pet sitting is more than a side gig; it’s a healing, heart-centered exchange. I offer sacred companion care that gives your pet peace and you peace of mind. I'm a Certified Self-Love Coach with a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize your pet’s care with presence and ease. I structure my day around the needs of the animals in my care. Whether it’s early mornings, midday walks, or calm overnight stays, I make space for them to feel safe, seen, and loved. While sitting, I read, reflect, or study, but their comfort always comes first. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where their routines, scents, and surroundings bring them calm. I ask detailed questions ahead of time (walk schedule, feeding preferences, medication, etc.) and follow your instructions to the letter. My care style is clean, respectful, and rooted in trust. I adapt to each animal's rhythm and always check in if something feels off. Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it with the same care I give to your pet.
About: About Me Hi, I’m Marissa, owner of Shining Light’s K9 Services! Open all year round. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including those with aggression, reactivity, or other behavioral challenges. Over the years, I’ve worked in multiple dog hotels/doggy daycares, in pet grooming, and as a freelance trainer, giving me a well-rounded understanding of canine care and behavior. I specialize in creating a safe, structured, and comfortable environment for every dog I work with. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, a high-energy run, targeted training, or simply loving companionship, I tailor my approach to their unique needs. Administering medications is never an issue, and I pride myself on excellent communication so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and progress are always my top priorities. With me, your fur baby will be in experienced, loving, and capable hands. Pet care is my full-time job and passion. I run my own business, Shining Light’s K9 Services, from home, so caring for dogs is part of my daily routine from morning to night. I structure my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training sessions, and any special care each pet needs. Because this is my full-time work, I have the flexibility to give your pet consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, I offer multiple sleeping options so your dog feels at ease—whether that’s a cozy crate, a comfy dog bed in my living room, or even in my bedroom if that’s what they’re used to. I maintain a clean, secure environment, with constant supervision and safe spaces for rest or play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions exactly to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure food, water, and medications are given on schedule, and I always take time for walks, play, and affection. Whether at my home or yours, my goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have been pet sitting for family and friends for years when needed. I’ve also had pets of all sorts since I was a kid and absolutely adore them. We have a very nice shaded neighborhood that’s perfect for walks which I do my self daily already. I’m currently working part time as a server, with a very flexible schedule. I work mornings only and am usually home by 2 on the 3 days I do work so I am very available. We don’t live on a super busy street so the large front yard is perfect for playing, on an extendable leash. Having had animals my whole life I know what to keep locked away and what is safe to play.
“Jada did an excellent job caring for our cat while we were away. She sent frequent photo and video updates, and even went above and beyond to clean up little messes our pet had made by accident. We will certainly book Jada again for all our future needs!”

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 Rubidoux. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
