About: Throughout high school, I would help dog-sit for family friends. I was very reliable and able to help feed, walk, and play with their animals. I also cared for coworkers' animals when they were gone for vacation, and I was entrusted with keeping their living space clean. Growing up, I had four large dogs: 2 labs and 2 boxer mixes. I work as a vet assistant, so I have hands-on experience when it comes to administering medication. I currently work part-time as a vet assistant, so I have a lot of free time on the days I don't go in, giving me plenty of time to care for your fur babies. I'm available most days throughout the week; just reach out! I like to go in and make it seem like I was never there. Simply do what is asked of me and leave without causing any disturbance. When it comes to the fur babies, I like to care for them as if they are my own and treat them like my own pets. I'm more than happy to help tidy up any place as well.
“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Trisha to care for our cat, Jake. Not only did she handle all the usual responsibilities—food, water, litter, and playtime—with care and consistency, but she went above and beyond in ways that truly blew us away. While we were gone, an ant invasion and a potential health issue popped up. Trisha handled both calmly and proactively, keeping us informed, taking smart action, and making sure Jake was comfortable and safe every step of the way. Her updates were thoughtful and thorough, and it was clear she was paying close attention to his behavior and needs—not just checking off tasks. And perhaps the best part? Jake absolutely adored her. Our normally picky, opinionated cat bonded with her immediately. The photos she sent showed him completely relaxed, snuggling, playing, and clearly loving his time with her. When we got home, he barely acknowledged us. We're trying not to take it personally. If you're looking for someone who’s not only reliable and professional but also genuinely loves animals and thinks like a pet parent, Trisha is it. We will absolutely be booking her again—and Jake wouldn’t forgive us if we didn’t.”
“My crew absolutely loved Sharon and her positive energy. The photos she sent were pronominal, the communication was great. We will be hiring her again. Alsó appreciated her attention to detail when learning all the different routines and behavior patterns with my little ones. Thank you.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have years of hands-on experience as a lifelong dog owner, and dogs seem to connect with my calm, positive energy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away Im currently looking for as many opportunities as possible as my schedule has opened up. Currently im taking same day booking but I am open to consistent weekly work. I first ask what is expected of me , and going from there. In the past I’ve taken care of dogs in kennels, fenced off, indoor, and anyway the owner sees fit ensuring the safety of the pet ❤️
“Shannon was wonderful. The boys loved her. I was worried about leaving them for days, as I never had, but once we met Shannon, those fears evaporated. She came for a couple short visits prior to my trip. They took to her immediately, and while I was away she sent videos and pics multiple times per day. Really couldn't be happier!”
About: I love cats of all shapes and sizes, and they seem to like me back! I was the go-to pet sitter for friends who traveled often. My schedule is flexible! I am willing to devote a lot of time to your cat(s) on weekdays. I am open to pet sitting on weekends as well! I like to keep a constant eye on all cats under my care. PET-CAMS WELCOME! Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities! I maintain a respectful distance until rapport has been established. I take lots of pictures!
“Veronica was an amazing cat sitter for my boys! Her communication was excellent from start to finish—she kept us updated regularly and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she truly paid attention to our cat’s specific needs and preferences, which meant so much to us. She even went the extra mile to pick up some packages and deal with unexpectedly running out of their food. On top of that, she was kind and gentle with our cats and gave great daily updates. We would absolutely trust her to care for them again and highly recommend her services!”
About: I grew up in South Africa organically and have had many years of experience with all kinds of animals! Always wanting to know new furry friends! I am currently working very part-time so am available frequently and when needed. I am in school at the moment but am taking mostly online course! I do have a fenced yard for the pups to play in and am very diligent when it comes to the care of any animal
“Our dog & cat were in the best hands with Michael! He was so attentive and thorough, and the communication was great — it really eased our minds when we were away traveling. Can’t wait to work with Michael again some day!!”
“Brenda was everything I could hope for in a live-in cat sitter. She was responsible, trustworthy, and established an instant rapport with my cat during our initial meeting. I appreciated her regular updates, photos, and communication. When I returned from a two week vacation, my kitty was calm and happy and my house was spotless. I highly recommend Brenda, and will absolutely hire her again.”
“While we were away on vacation, our usual cat sitter had an emergency and had to leave our cats alone without supervision. We booked Bryan to fill in and not only was he available at a moments notice, but he was also able to bond with our cats the moment he arrived. He sent us pictures of our cats so we knew they were safe, and he was even got our problem cat, Dave, to come out of his hiding spot for some pets. This cat never lets anyone pet him and we were surprised at how quickly he bonded with Bryan. We highly recommend Bryan as a cat sitter and we will continue to book with him every time we travel!”
“Josephine takes excellent care of our kitty, leaves everything as clean or cleaner than before, is extremely responsive and flexible. And she sends great pictures of the cat playing and having a good time!”
“Cora Leigh is the best in pet sitting. With our home in the middle of an extensive remodel, she worked around the chaos and our kitty was well cared for. Completely trustworthy and manages any situation. Our kitty is well cared for with time and attention to many pets!”
“I had Emily catsit my two cats last weekend and the experience was wonderful. I was nervous about leaving my young kitten especially, but Emily made sure to send me many videos, pictures and updates, which were all very reassuring. Thank you Emily for taking such good care of my kitties - would not hesitate to book again!”
“Olivia is so nice and was great with my skittish cat! She provided lots of photos with her updates, which I appreciated, and did a great job following the care instructions I left for her. I would book with her again!”
About: I've spent the bulk of my life caring for animals (dogs, cats, small mammals, and even horses). Much of my experience has involved anxious and/or reactive dogs, who often do best with a calm environment and a consistent routine. I pay close attention to body language and changes in behavior so I can respond before a dog becomes more stressed. I have also cared for rescue dogs whose backgrounds required patience and careful handling. That experience has taught me to notice stress signals that can be easy to miss, and to avoid pushing a dog beyond its comfort level. I follow the routines owners provide rather than changing what the dog is used to. I'm comfortable following medication instructions and specific feeding routines. I can also care for households with multiple pets (big or small, old or young). My goal is to keep each pet’s daily life as familiar as possible while the owner is away, so the pet can remain comfortable and secure in its normal environment. I’m currently in graduate school with a highly flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize the pets in my care. I keep my Rover calendar carefully updated and limit bookings so each pet receives attentive, individualized care. When I am house-sitting or doing drop-in visits, I treat your home with the same care and discretion as I would my own.
About: Family dogs have included black labs, Rotts, terriers and Cane Corso. I have puppy sat for family and friends for more than 20 years. I have experience with cats and other animals as well. I am in a large one-bedroom apartment in Outer Richmond. I am very active, and enjoy spending most of my time outdoors. Access to the beach is close during the warmer months. Thank you for the consideration! I work remote during the week freeing up much of the day. Weekends are usually low-key, with lots of time spent in the parks and beaches. I am in a one bedroom on the second floor with an elevator. My home is safe from harmful chemicals and fragrances. I am patient and loving, and I always want to cuddle. I have a small dog who is very friendly and loves other pets.
About: I’ve always had an interest in animals. In high school I worked at a vet grooming establishment. I’ve worked at PETCO dog grooming. I’ve house sat and walked dogs on a daily basis for my sisters two rescue dogs for the last few years. I have taken them to the vet, given them medication, bathed and groomed them. We have gone on little excursions to Fort Funston, as well as the dog park. I enjoy taking care of them so much. They bring me so much joy. ** Willing to host dog or cat siblings. I live very near to Ocean Beach and look forward to taking dogs for long walks there! I’m hoping to make this my full-time job so I’m open for any availability. I am eager to get started, and can’t wait to meet your four legged friend. And you of course.! 😃 I live very near to Ocean Beach and hope to take your dog on nice long walks along the beach. If I am caring for your cat, I will have all the necessary equipment to do so. Litter box, food, water bowl, etc. I also have invested in some equipment for bathing and grooming dogs such as clippers, a hair dryer, shampoo, and conditioner. If that’s something you would like as well.

Aline is a fantastic pet sitter. She's kind, caring and attentive. She looked after our two senior cats whilst we were away and did a great job. Communication was super easy and she followed the instructions with no problems. It put my mind at ease knowing she was taking great care of our gals. I highly recommend Aline!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,516 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across San Geronimo. 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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 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.
