“Amanda is awesome! She was very attentive and followed instructions precisely. She was also great at communicating every detail and asked for guidance whenever she faced an issue we hadn't addressed. I highly recommend her, and will use her again!”

About: I have had pets all my life and also have experience with many kinds of pets. I have cared for dogs and cats and also have experience with rabbits and turtles, I am also willing to prep for any other kinds of animals too. I have been sitting and walking dogs professionally for about 2 years but have helped others with their pets for many more years. I have experience with dogs who need medication and energetic ones too, I am here to help with whatever your pet might need of me. I look forward to assisting you and your pet! My part-time job doesn’t have a fixed schedule but typically I get scheduled in the evening. I am happy to assist anytime I am not busy or working, and I am also fine with overnight stays or late night walks. Currently I do not offer pet boarding at my home, but I am more than happy to care for your pets at your home and offer reliable and trustworthy assistance.
“Thank you alaina for taking care of my little kitty for 4 days. I will definitely book with you again in the future. I also enjoyed reading every word you wrote in the note section describing the care chanel had with you. I can tell you truly love animals ❤️”
“Awesome dog sitter. Very nice, aware, attentative. Go over and beyond to assure you your dogs will be taken care of. She not only dropped in but also walked my three dogs at one time and followed all of my instructions for eating schedules etc.”
“Alyssa was wonderful taking care of our Cat, Jasper. Would absolutely recommend her. She is very kind and attentive to Jaspers needs. Was so happy to be able to leave him in good hands to go on vacation!”
“Trinity was thoughtful, considerate of our home and dogs, and did an absolutely wonderful job communicating and meeting our needs as dog owners while also nurturing our pups. She truly went above and beyond by leaving our home looking neat and giving our dogs excellent care. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos she shared. We have officially found our dog sitter!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience handling multiple pets at once while still making sure each one gets individual attention and care. I’ve cared for several dogs and cats together in the same household, so I’m comfortable managing different routines, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience with young dogs and understand the patience and consistency they need. I’m happy to help reinforce basic training like leash manners, sit, stay, and good behavior during walks and feeding time. I also genuinely love going on long walks, so high-energy dogs get the exercise and mental stimulation they need, not just a quick potty break. Above all, I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable by sticking to their routines and treating them like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time gigs after moving cross country in mid-2025 and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to make many times work and am able to sleep over or drop in as needed. I make sure to prioritize safety by anticipating potential dangers. My past experience as a daycare teacher has given me eyes on the back of my head and readiness for issues or safety concerns. I make sure spaces remain safe and comfortable for your pet and respect your guidelines and routines.
About: I have 2 wonderful dogs myself so I understand wanting the best for your little friends. When it comes to caring for a pet it is very important that they be comfortable and have trust with the carer. I can provide a gentle touch like no other to make your furry friends feel loved and safe while you are away. For pet/house sitting it is best to meet before hand to make sure that the animal understands that you trust me so it's okay for them to trust me as well. I can provide as many walks and potty breaks and the dogs need to be comfortable. I do require 24 hours notice for all cancellations. Walks start at 30 minutes per walk at $10 a walk for non holidays

“Shannon took wonderful care of our cats while we were out of town. She was kind and calm, which made them feel comfortable immediately. Especially the more nervous one! She was receptive every time we reached out and always sent us sweet pictures so we knew our fur babies were happy and healthy. We will definitely book with her next time we go out of town!”
About: Hi there! My name is Lukasz Paul and any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, I had my German Shepherd, and my Belgian Malinois. I also helped my parents with their pet sitting business in Santa Clarita. From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all! I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Our pups were rescued as well, with little training, so teaching them tricks was always a fun time! I’m working, so the days I added that are available, have to be either requested Later at night or very early in the morning. My work schedule does change week by week. So it does depend on my schedule on when I am available. My main job, at home is to show love and appreciation towards my dog. When she does something good, I treat her. Doing this will help her to understand me better.

“She was absolutely wonderful. Very sweet, and tentative to our animals. We feel that she went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend her services. And we will definitely use her in the future.”
“Kristine is very professional working with our dog. She was gentle and careing and our dog became very close to her. Kristine was always attentive and on time. She was a blessing when I had an extended business meeting she was able to return and cover for me. In the future I would recommend hiring her again.thank you.”

“My husband and I hired Kimberly a second time for an entire week while we were traveling. I knew from the first time that my 2 cats would be in excellent hands. She came twice a day to clean the litter, feed them, and make sure they had fresh water. She was also kind enough to bring in the mail, take out the trash on “trash” day and wash all the cat dishes so we didn’t come home to a mess. Her service was impeccable. Her daughter was with her which made my cats even a little more spoiled by the extra attention they received. Please don’t hesitate to hire Kimberly. We highly recommend her and will reach out again for any future travel needs.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 6,906 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Russ. 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 Russ. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
