“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!”
“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.”
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.
“Chelsea took wonderful care of my cat and was reliable, attentive, and kind throughout the whole stay. She made me feel comfortable knowing my cat was in good hands, and I truly appreciated her care and communication. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her. If you want, I can make it warmer, more personal, or even shorter for Rover.”
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.

“Lexy was a wonderful cat sitter. She was very communicative, sent tons of pictures and updates, and took good care of our cat while we were gone (all during the holiday season). She also helped me out with sorting out a package I had delivered to our house that I forgot was coming and this was really helpful for us. She was great and we would definitely recommend!”
About: Experienced sitter providing loving care, senior support, medication administration, and puppy training basics. I treat every pet like my own with patience, attention and love.

Open to discussing my weekday availability if needed. I care for pets by following their normal routines closely in the client’s home to keep them comfortable and stress free. I focus on feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of attention based on each pet’s personality.

About: I have 12+ years of professional pet care experience and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’m Fear Free Certified and Pet First Aid & CPR Certified, and I take pride in providing dependable, attentive care that is tailored to each individual pet. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets and understand that they often need a little extra patience, attention, and flexibility. I’m also comfortable caring for shy, anxious, or slower-to-warm-up pets and always allow them to interact with me at their own pace. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, appetite, mobility, and changes in routine so I can help keep your pet comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether I’m providing boarding, house sitting, daycare, or drop-in visits, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule and preferences. That includes meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and plenty of downtime depending on what makes your pet happiest. I know that the little details matter, so I take the time to learn your pet’s routine before their stay. Communication is incredibly important to me. You can expect regular updates and lots of photos so you can see how your pet is doing and enjoy your time away without wondering what’s happening back home. Most importantly, I care for every pet as an individual. Some dogs want to play all day, some would rather curl up next to me on the couch, and some need time to decide whether I’m worthy of being their new friend! My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and positive experience where your pet receives the same level of attention and affection I would want for my own. 🐾 I work from home Monday through Friday, with a set schedule from 5 AM to 2 PM. This allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, ensuring pets are fed, let out, and cared for even during my work hours. I also use my lunch break for walks, giving pets a chance to stretch their legs and get some fresh air. My home features a secure fenced backyard, providing a safe space for pets to play and explore freely. With weekends free and the ability to adjust my schedule, I’m available to pet sit any day of the week, ensuring your furry friends receive the love, attention, and exercise they need. Whether it’s daily care, walks, or playtime in the backyard, I’m here to keep your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, secure, and loving environment where pets feel at ease. My home is pet-friendly, with a fenced backyard for supervised play and plenty of indoor space for rest and relaxation. I ensure pets have their own comfortable areas and follow any specific instructions to maintain their routine. In your home, I prioritize trust and respect by adhering to your guidelines and treating your space as if it were my own. I ensure pets are fed on time, walked regularly, and given plenty of attention and affection. Safety is always my top priority, whether it’s securing gates, keeping toxic items out of reach, or being attentive to pets’ behavior. I communicate openly with pet owners, providing updates and photos so you can rest assured your pets are in good hands. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your furry family members.
“Jade did a fabulous job looking after my fur babies! It's always hard to leave them when I'm traveling for work, but Jade left us the best little updates and the cutest photos ever. Would strongly recommend here to check in on any of your pets! ✨😻🩷”
“Michelle is a gift. My kitties were instantly friendly with her and she took wonderful care of them while I was away. She is communicative and sends cute pics throughout so I know they are well.”
About: As an animal lover I enjoy meeting new furry friends and taking care of them is a joy to me. I love what I do as it ensures one more animal will receive the love and attention they deserve. My first pet sitting gig was for my neighbor when I was 10. They had a sweet boxer named Bruiser. Since then I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and breeds along with cats, birds, chickens, and bunnies! Friends, family, coworkers and neighbors have all relied on me to take exceptional care of their pets. I’ve got experience bathing/brushing as well. I also have experience with special needs dogs (blind, deaf, immobile) along with the seniors. I’ve been told many times I have “great energy”. I’m originally from Seattle so am looking for new local LA based clients. I have references as I have been pet sitting and babysitting for many years. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns! I’m available full time. I have the time and autonomy to ensure your pet/family member will be well taken cared of and so loved! I am very understanding about last minute changes as well. Any other questions feel free to ask. When in your home I maintain a clean, safe environment while following all instructions given. I typically spend more time with your pets than required as I enjoy being around dogs + cats and animals so much! In my home, I have a fenced yard and a calm, sweet rescue cat to keep your dog or cat company while you’re gone! I can also provide care at your home if that’s best for your pet. While I’m a professional, this doesn’t feel like ‘work’ to me as I’m passionate about providing excellent pet care! Bonus: I always send cute pics + videos!
About: I have cared for pets for the last 3 or so years. I have always been fond of them on such a deep level. Instead of thinking of them as pets, I consider them to be friends. I appreciate the idea of becoming close to the dogs and pets around me and creating a strong bond with them. When I watch dogs, I don’t really consider it to be work but rather a time I get to spend time with my animal friends, which makes me so happy when I get to see them healthy and happy :) I currently do not have a full-time job, so my availability is wide open. I can be very flexible when it comes to date changes. I am a very cautious individual, and I ensure I am constantly watching the pet to make sure they are nowhere in the house or vicinity that could cause injury or harm.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 6,942 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
