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.
“Shumyla was an absolutely fabulous pet sitter for our two cats! She was always quick to respond to any of my queries and she took plenty of photos at each visit to ensure that the appropriate tasks were completed. We will definitely use her again!”
“Yun-an (Elva) is really the best sitter we know and is our savior! We had originally planned to have her drop by only a few times when we were away but the night before our trip (literally while I was packing), one of our cats had an emergency. The doctor subscribed him medication to be taken twice a day. I was ready to cancel the trip if I couldn’t find someone to take care of him. Luckily, not only did Elva agree last minute to come two times a day, but she really went above and beyond the expectations during her visits. She is extremely detailed oriented and kept me updated about everything. Our cat is really but Elva did a great job of making him feel comfortable and making sure that he ate before giving him the medicine. Her rover cards had dozens of photos and long descriptions of what each of my fur babies did during her visits. She is such a patient and loving care taker, and I can tell both of my cats trust her. Having Elva come by made me feel at ease during my trip, because I know there is someone who would take very good care of my cats. I feel so, so lucky to have found her. Highly highly recommended!”
About: I've had three dogs in my life. I have some training experience with them and have cared for many of my friends' and acquaintances' pets. Looking forward to supporting wherever I can I have pretty open availability right now. Though I do have a daughter in high school, who needs me for drop off and pick ups. It should not be a hindrance b I keep my cats indoors. And my dogs as well. They are crate trained so I can crate your pet as well and am familiar with the process of crate training.
About: A cat and dog lover that has experience of taking care of cats and dogs of different ages and personalities. I follow their routine and keep them calm and relaxing. I send update photos and videos regularly. I work from home, so I’m able to provide consistent supervision and flexible care throughout the day. I build my schedule around pets that I’m caring for. I prioritize safety, consistency, and a calm environment when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions you provide.
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.
About: Having owned and cared for dogs and cats my whole life—including years of pet-sitting—I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet my full attention whenever you need support. Whether you need dog walking, drop-in visits, or in-home pet sitting, your pet will enjoy attentive, personalized care with the perfect mix of play, walks, and dedicated attention. I primarily work remotely from home with a highly flexible routine, allowing me to focus on your pet throughout the entire day. Because I am on-site continuously, I can provide frequent potty breaks, steady companionship, play breaks, and quick neighborhood walks. I easily adapt to your dog’s specific feeding and exercise schedule without leaving them unattended. Safety and peace of mind are my highest priorities. When pets are in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and fully pet-proofed space equipped with comfortable resting areas and secure environments. For care hosted in your home, I strictly follow your established routines, care instructions, and safety boundaries. Regardless of location, I ensure all doors and windows remain secure and double-check all leashes and gear before heading outside.
“Such an amazing sitter! Christopher was attentive to questions and sent updates of Kiko the days I was away. He takes amazing care of cats and I can tell Kiko missed his stay so I 100% recommend and definitely will rebook in the future!”
“Cordigen was wonderful and went above and beyond for our two cats while we were traveling. We massively appreciated the pictures and updates about our cats but also how Cordigen regularly took in packages and made sure everything else was in order in our home. Thank you, Cordigen!!”
“Adelaide really helped us out in a pinch when we needed a last minute cat sitter before going out of town. She was always quick to respond to any communications, and our pretty shy cat seemed to warm up to her quickly.”
“Diana did an amazing job watching John Snow while my wife and I went away for the weekend. We came back to our place looking exactly as it was when we left and a very happy cat. Highly recommend Diana and will certainly be looking to book her in the future. 😁”

I am a fear free / force free trainer. I love working with all kinds of dogs from the young and hyper to the geriotric babies.🤠🐶 Very blessed pet care can be my biggest passion and career. Working in animal welfare for the past 15years has giving me the knowledge and experience to be able to pursue my dreams No matter the service, I am dedicated to providing and following all safety protocols for every house, walks, or bathing service. I never walk a dog without a leash. I advocate for all dogs while on walks for others not to pet or approach with their dogs to keep everyone safe.
About: I grew up having large dogs, rabbits, cats and rodents. I love animals and I like to pet sit, do dog walking, housesitting and general pet care in my spare time.

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.

About: Hi, I’m Paulina! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, with hands-on pet care experience dating back to when I was in middle school. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, including guinea pigs, dwarf hamsters, mice, turtles, freshwater fish, a cornsnake, a bearded dragon, and of course, cats and dogs! I have four cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with the responsibility and attention to detail that comes with caring for multiple pets and maintaining their individual routines. I’ve fostered two abandoned puppies, cared for them while they were looking for their next chapter, and helped find them loving homes. I also recently fostered a feral queen and her litter of 4 kittens that were just two weeks old (so tiny and cute!). I had them for about 6 weeks before they went off to their loving homes (yes, I was a foster fail and adopted one!). These experiences really reinforced how much I value giving animals patience, stability, and plenty of affection while they’re in my care. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and understand that every pet is different. Some need lots of playtime and attention, while others are shy, independent, or need a little extra patience to feel comfortable around someone new. I’m happy to meet pets where they are and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m also very attentive to cleanliness, feeding schedules, fresh water, enrichment, and changes in behavior. I want you to feel confident that your pets aren’t just being checked on but they’re genuinely being cared for. I also completely understand the anxiety and concern when it comes to going on trips and leaving your fur babies at home, so I always send detailed updates with lots of pics. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your fur baby and give them the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. 🐾♥️ I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to build pet care into my day. I’m able to provide consistent visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship almost any time of the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I carefully follow instructions, keep doors and gates secure, make sure pets have access to fresh water, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and will leave things clean and exactly as I found them. Before caring for your pet, I like to understand their routine, personality, feeding instructions, medications if applicable, and any quirks or safety concerns. I believe clear communication and attention to detail are key to giving both pets and their people peace of mind.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Saratoga
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. 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.

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 .

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 , 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.
