About: Animal lover with hands on experience caring for 2 dogs and 4 cats, plus volunteer experience at an animal shelter working with baby and senior animals. Patient, reliable, and passionate about making pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m available Monday through Friday after 5 PM, and I’m fully available on weekends for pet sitting, drop in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime. I follow each pet’s routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have food, water, playtime, walks if needed, and lots of attention and care.
“Thank you, Dani, for yet another awesome job well done with Giacomo and Geppetto! Dani is our go-to for taking care of our two fur babies when we are out of town. She is responsible, communicative, reliable, and great with animals. Our cats tend to be shy around anyone other than me or my husband, but they love Dani! She does a great job of making them feel comfortable by cuddling and playing with them. Highly recommend Dani!!!”
“Lia did an incredible job taking care of my 2 cats. She was great at communicating and providing updates/pictures on how my cats were doing. I felt comfortable leaving them in her care during my short vacation.”
About: About Us We are a husband-and-wife duo who believe that a house isn't truly a home without the patter of paws. For over 30 years, we have been dedicated dog parents, sharing our lives with various breeds, personalities, and ages. Dogs aren't just pets to us; they are family members who deserve the utmost respect, patience, and affection. Recently, our own beloved furry baby (16yr old miniature schnauzer) crossed the rainbow bridge. While our hearts are healing, we find ourselves with an abundance of love and a quiet home. We’ve decided that the best way to honor our late pup's memory is to spread that love to your pets, providing them with a safe, joyful "home away from home" while you are away. Why Choose Us? 30+ Years of dogs parents: From the high energy of puppyhood to the specialized care required for senior dogs, we’ve seen it all. Constant Supervision: As a couple, one of us is always home, ensuring your pet is never lonely and always monitored. Home Comforts: We offer a dog-friendly environment where "getting on the couch" is Welcome (unless your house rules say otherwise!). Peace of Mind: We understand the anxiety of leaving a pet behind. we provide regular photo and video updates so you can see exactly how much fun your pup is having. We can’t wait to meet your furry family members and treat them as if they were our own! With both of us home throughout the day and a nearby office for quick transitions, our household offers constant companionship. We are dedicated to caring for your dogs with the same love and attention we give our own. Nothing is more important to us than your pet's safety. We treat every pup like our own, ensuring a secure, loving environment and the dedicated care they deserve.
“Tinwa was wonderful with our cat and dog! He was very attentive, super responsive to messages, and definitely treated our animals with a lot of care and love. I highly recommend you book with him!”
About: I have over 8 years of experience with dogs and puppies. I work well with animals and have volunteered multiple times at shelters, vets and dog shows. I am currently not working and looking to book a few pets for the remainder of my days before I move to college. From then on I will be working in San Jose except for weekends when I will be down In Hayward again. In my own home I have a schedule of when I walk my animals and when they get fed. I have experience grooming dogs and making sure they stay clean and healthy. I have set times that I feed my animals and refill water. I will be happy to follow any instructions you provide.
About: I've been raised to love animals since childhood, and we've had numerous dogs and cats at home growing up. My mother taught me a great deal about treating animals with care and love. I am retired and am available for cat sitting on weekdays between 8 am to 5 pm. I look forward to doting on and pampering your precious ones when they are under my care. With utmost care and attention in your own home. I know that cats are happiest in their own home, doing their own routines. Their comfort is my top priority.
“We were very nervous leaving our kitty with a sitter for the first time, and Kimberly was so kind to meet us before we left to meet and get acquainted with Neko. She was so reassuring and very clearly loves animals and cares for them. I will definitely be using her services any time we leave town.”
“Our regular sitter of two years moved just far enough away that coming twice a day for a week wasn't possible, so it was a little nerve-racking to choose a new sitter when we were going to be on the other side of the country. Picking Gagandeep was a good decision. He put us at ease immediately when leaving them, which was especially important when I developed an unexpected and serious medical condition. If I had spent time worrying about them cross-country, I don’t think it would have turned out as well as it did. I’ll definitely book with him again.”
“I am beyond impressed with the care that my cat, cookie received from my cat sitter while I was away. It's evident that Supriya went above and beyond to ensure my cat was not only well-fed and safe but also showered with love and attention. The daily updates and photos provided me with great peace of mind. I'm incredibly grateful for their dedication and would highly recommend their services to any pet owner seeking top-notch care for their furry family members. Thank you so much!”
“Jennifer followed my detailed instructions very well and sent me constant updates with pictures while I went on a long deserved vacation. Kitty got sick a week prior so I was worried that she hasn’t fully recovered. Luckily there were no issues. Thanks Jennifer for everything! Highly recommend to others.”
“Vanessa is an absolute blessing! Grizzly LOVES Vanessa (yes I’m a bit jealous haha) and it is very hard for grizzly to like anyone!!! She is friendly, trustworthy and reliable. I love the updates and pictures she provided while we were away. She’s amazing with dogs, I can brag about her all day. I have definitely found my forever sitter and will be rebooking soon. I really don’t know what we would’ve done without her :) Vanessa- thank you so much for your time! I really appreciate you and Grizzly absolutely loves you!! I feel like as soon as we got back, he was waiting for you instead ? you’re the best!!!!”

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.
