About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs & cats, as well as my friends’ for the last 15 years. I have experience with big ones, small ones, feisty, friendly… they all deserve all the love. I’m currently working part-time, mostly off my phone, so I will have plenty of time to have quality time with your pet(s)! I’ve had animals with a more regimented schedule & others that are low maintenance- happy to accommodate both. I have a fenced yard & a small senior Shih Tzu to keep your animal company! There’s also lots of parks in the area- both with other dogs, or more private.
“Liya did a great job cat sitting my boys. They both seemed to enjoy her company very much. I didn't need to worry about them while on vacation because she sent updates and pictures regularly. Would definitely book Liya again next time. Thanks!”
“We are so fortunate to have found Katherine on Rover to take care of our dogs. She is a very caring and detail-oriented person. She bonded with our dogs quickly and provided them with the care we had hoped for. Her daily communication on the status of our dogs was fantastic. I would highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and detail oriented pet sitter. We hope to work with her again.”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including looking after dogs in a home environment. As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I'm patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet's individual personality and routine. I take the time to understand their needs, follow their owner's instructions, and provide a calm, caring experience. I'm happy to share photos and updates during each visit so you can feel reassured while you're away. I have a flexible schedule and am available for pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can accommodate both occasional visits and regular weekly bookings. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure each visit fits their individual routine and needs. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable and secure. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and daily routines. I always make sure doors and gates are securely closed, food and water are fresh, and your home is treated with respect. I also provide photo updates during visits so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Helen is a loving and caring person and it shows in how she took care of our cat “Jax”. She followed all our instructions to the tee and provided “daily” pix/video of Jax, that was such a “nice touch”. Professional and sweet of her! Jax was really “on vacation” in an air b n b. Didn’t want to leave when I picked him up. There’s no doubt that we will use her again soon.”
“Conner was incredible to work with and did a fantastic job taking care of our cats. He was quick-to-respond, proactively communicative, and obviously truly cared about our cats’ well being. He went above and beyond to make sure the cats were comfy and our house was clean. I would absolutely recommend booking with him!”
“Chendi did an amazing job taking care of Shadow while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about Shadow as if he were her own. Communication was great the entire time, and we had complete peace of mind knowing Shadow was in such good hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. I would absolutely book Chendi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
“Brianna was absolutely incredible taking care of our two kittens during our first trip away from them! She was kind, thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cared so much about making sure they felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were gone. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. We came home to two very happy kittens, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I used to volunteer at the San Jose Animal Center and the Wildlife Center of Silicon Valley I worked at an animal hospital for a year as a veterinary assistant I trained my one-year-old kitten to wait, sit, shake, turn around, and high-five, as well as my friend's puppy. I just graduated from college and moved back home during my gap year before I start veterinary school. I have time every day to pet sit. I have a large backyard that dogs can play in and an area for a crate if needed. I will make sure that your pet feels safe and loved at either my house or yours. I will follow the instructions left for me very carefully. Your pet will get lots of snuggles and playtime. I plan to give them the best care possible while respecting their boundaries.
“Lexi is awesome and my cat loved her. She took care of everything I asked and sent updates. Lexi is super personable, kind, and caring. It made traveling 200% less stressful because I knew kitty was being loved.”
“Chloe is sweet and kind and good with animals. She was an amazing pet sitter for me. Always attentive and communicative, on time and saved me in a difficult situation! I’ve booked with her twice and I’m so happy I found such a lovely and responsible person for my cats.”
“Nasrin was a phenomenal sitter for our Pawlee and Penelope! I hate being away from them for so long, but having her do check ins put me at ease to enjoy my time away. She was very communicative, friendly, and loving to our cat and hedgehog. Her experience with smaller animals was absolutely a plus! She also went the extra mile and did the gross and dirty jobs to keep everything clean and comfortable for them! My husband and I appreciated her so much, and she will definitely be our go to for future needs. Thank you Nasrin!”
“Jing did an amazing job taking care of our cats. She followed all instructions carefully, provided detailed updates with photos, and was very attentive to their needs. We felt completely at ease knowing our cats were in such reliable hands and were able to enjoy our vacation stress-free. She was also very cooperative and accommodating. Would absolutely book with her again!”
“Likang went above and beyoooond for my babies! I was away for over a solid week. During that time, I received clear updates on my two cat’s welfare. She was not only on top of their basic needs such as water, food, and play, but she went beyond making sure my long haired girl was brushed daily and my big shorthair boy got his needed loving attention. Bowls were washed daily, auto litter drawer and area kept clean, and just so much more. Plus, any funny, odd, or normal cat behaviors were communicated clearly to me. Likang really went all out. I’m so happy with her help and appreciate all the amazing pics and videos that went along with it 🙏❤️ I can just see how much my kitties loved having you with them!”
“Another terrific set of services from Denise while we were on vacation. All went well and smoothly. Denise sent us pics, which our other pet-sitter did not, and we enjoyed (and felt comforted) seeing that all was well while we were away. Thanks for your help, Denise!”
About: This is the primary account for Ryan, my wife Maria Andrea will be helping only when necessary or requested. I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was approximately 12 years old. This includes my own dogs and friends and family members dogs and cats. I have a cocker spaniel named Ruby that I care for on a daily basis.

Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care and respect! I currently work from home so I am flexible with my schedule and I have the ability to care for animals on a relatively short notice.

I will also send updates to the pet owner as often as is requested.
About: I have a dog at home who has been part of our family for almost 10 years, so I have experience caring for and spending time with dogs. I have also always been around people who have dogs. When I would visit my father at work, the owners had two Golden Retrievers that I would often play with and spend time with. I also have some experience with cats. There are a few stray cats in my area that I regularly feed and spend time with, and I enjoy getting to know them and earning their trust. I have always enjoyed being around animals and feel comfortable caring for them ! I’m currently a college student taking online courses, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I have plenty of time during the week to care for pets, and i’m available on weekends as well. On weekdays, I’m generally available after 11 AM, which gives me plenty of time to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the day. When caring for furry friends, I make sure to follow their normal routine and give them plenty of attention and care. I can help with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I’ll also make sure to follow any specific instructions the owner provides and keep them updated with pictures or messages while they’re away.
About: I grew up in a family that was always in love with pets. Had many types of different pets and even had more than 35 dogs at once. Worked at my family’s pet shop for years. Had my own dog from 8yo to 21yo. I’ve done multiple pet births before as well so a pregnant pet does not scare me. I also have three small fishes but I had an 66 gallons fish tank. I work in the office from mon-Fri, with some remote flexibility. My partner wfh everyday. There is always someone home to care for the babies and our own kitties. We have 2 cute kitties that we rescued from a field a few months ago. They are allowed to be on couches. We try to keep them off the bedroom but everywhere else they are ok to go. We also try to leash train them and let them experience the outside as most as possible and it wouldn’t be different with your baby.

We’ve had Dana take care of our cat multiple times, and she has always been great! She communicates regularly, and I appreciate that she checks in about our preferences. We can tell that our cat feels relaxed around Dana as well, which is always a great comfort. Thanks, Dana!
Elizabeth did a wonderful job of taking care of our kitty while we were away! We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of him during drop-ins. We knew he was in great hands with Elizabeth who was always very responsive, attentive, and kind. We will absolutely rebook with her if we need a pet sitter again! Thank you for taking such good care of our kitty!
Olivia was wonderful! My cats liked her immediately and she was very sweet with them. I appreciated the photos and videos of playtime while I was gone and the updates that they had taken their medication with no problem. She was very prompt with every time frame she gave me. Would definitely book again!
Chendi did an amazing job taking care of Shadow while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about Shadow as if he were her own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Saratoga is $32 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $58 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,116 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Saratoga. 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.

- 83% 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 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.
