“Noel checked on our Maltipoo puppy Cinnamon while we were at work, ensuring she had all her essentials, a potty break, and fun play time. We loved receiving her detailed visit reports with cute photos of Cinnamon, plus specifics on whether she peed, pooped, drank water, and more. Cinnamon bonded with her instantly and it helps that Noel is getting dog trainer training. Cinnamon can be a bit fearful of strangers so Noel’s experience was helpful.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I have trained almost all my dogs since they were puppies. I have trained my own service dog. I have a passion for training dogs. I am currently retired, so I have plenty of time to play with and train your pup. I can take them for daily walks around the park as well. I have a fenced yard and a nearby park to take your dog for a walk. I have my own friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a cat, but if your dog does not like cats, I can isolate may cat from your dog. My big dog seems to have a way of knowing how to make dogs feel comfortable in our home. He knows when to interact with them and when to just leave them alone. I am retired so I have lots of time to spend with your dog. I try to schedule my activities around when I have dogs, so I can devote all my time to caring for the dogs. I have a fenced in yard. I always supervise dogs when they are outside. I try to set up play dates with a neighbor who also works for Rover. My husband and family members are usually around to play with and take dogs on walks. I am currently transforming my services to focus more on training sessions in my client’s home. My main focus is working with young pups and to start training from day one, although I welcome the opportunity to train dogs of all ages. My goals are to offer support to dog owners on how to properly train desired behaviors in their dogs. I closely monitor all dogs, especially during play. I train the dogs how to play appropriately with each other. I will only crate dogs if it’s for their own safety. The only services I do in a client’s home are training sessions with the client present.
“Amy was great! We felt so reassured that our kitty was getting the attention she needed while we were gone. I appreciated the daily photo updates and could tell she took great care of our girl.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my patience, reliability, and caregiving experience. I grew up with dogs and have cared for the dogs of close friends and loved ones for many years. My healthcare background has taught me to be attentive, compassionate, and dependable, while making sure each pet’s individual needs are met. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who may need extra patience and attention. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind. Im currently available at these time but can adjust on Wednesday and Thursday if needed. Monday, Tuesday,Friday Saturday, Sunday 7am-12pm Wednesday and Thursday 7am-8pm I provide a safe and caring environment for pets. At my home, I have a fenced yard, along with regular feeding and fresh water and plenty of toys. I’m also across a big park where I can provide exercise. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely, including walks, meals, potty breaks, and any special care needs to keep them comfortable.
“Ashley is a dedicated and caring pet sitter! My cat loved her and got some excellent quality time and enrichment from her visits. Ashley showed up and sent updates and photos every day. She is also diligent about asking questions to ensure the best care for your pets. Highly recommended.”
“Claudia is wonderful and I can fully trust my senior pup is in great hands with her. She has experience with various pet ailments and provides appropriate care and compassion!”
“Patrick did a great job taking care of our dog and our cat for drop-in visits while we were away. He was kind and attentive. I would definitely use his services again and recommend him to others.”
About: I have always had a kinship with animals. They do communicate and I listen. I had my first cat at age 5. From there, it was cats, dogs, birds and even a horse for me. As an adult, I have also had a rabbit. I work remotely full time. I prefer to also house sit and have a place to work. For dogs, I do a short walk in the morning and long one after work. On breaks , I check in with the needs of the animal. I make sure the needs of the animal is met. Not just food and water but attention. Do they need love or play time? I will be sure to know the current routine so we folllow it for stability.
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Sparrow, Haze, and Champagne. I was able to enjoy my vacation with peace of mind. All instructions were followed, and you my cats were in good hands. I would recommend.”
About: Huge fully fenced backyard for safe playtime and zoomies 🐾 . New to this platform but not new to pet sitting. I’ve cared for pets a majority of my life and treat every animal like my own. I’m patient, reliable, and great with puppies, seniors, and shy or anxious pets. I follow routines closely and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for. You’ll get regular updates so you always know your fur baby is happy. Since I’m new to this platform, my rates are currently lower as I build reviews but prices will increase over time. Book now to lock in current rates 🐶🐱 Please note that we may have other dogs in the home during your dog's stay. Let us know your preference: • Crated with potty breaks and exercise every few hours, or • Free roaming with the other dogs, with access to play and go in and out of the house throughout the day. We want your dog to be as comfortable as possible during their stay. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m available for boarding from Friday through Wednesday, giving your pet plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule, so your fur baby will never feel rushed or alone. For added peace of mind, I use a Ring camera at night specifically for dog boarding, so you can feel confident that your pup is safe and monitored. I have a big backyard that is fenced.
About: I’ve been bossing the dog-sitting game since I was a kid—always had at least three pups of my own, and I’m the go-to for family and friends when they need a sitter. I don’t just watch dogs I treat them like the VIPs they are. Your fur baby’s not just in good hands, they’re in the best hands. I also used to have a dog named brownie that was diabetic that needed insulin night and morning so I also have that experience. I currently have a job that is part time I work at a restaurant on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from 430 to 9 to 9:30 unless I get called in, which is hardly rarely I am available to do house checks walk dogs and house sit but I’m only able to housesit for only three days at a time. I make sure every animal in my care is safe and comfortable by providing secure, supervised walks and a calm environment—whether at their home or out on a walk. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, keeping them away from hazards and making sure they get plenty of exercise and love. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, always.
About: I’m a HUGE animal lover. I’ve had dogs since I was about 3 years old. I currently have 3 adorable fur babies; one is almost a year old, one will be 3 in August and the other (my oldest) turns 14 in May. I have had cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds, fish, chickens and even a turtle, so I am prepared to take care of almost any animal you have. You can trust me to watch and care for your pets, as I will treat them as my own. I cannot wait to meet you and your furr babies and hopefully have a continuous relationship for many years to come. For any questions or concerns you may have, please don’t hesitate to reach out! Thank you :) I have a very open schedule. I just recently graduated from San Francisco State University, so I’ve been doing Uber for the past couple of years I live on 1 acre full of grass right outside of Elk Grove in the Vineyard area near Wildhawk Golf Course so there is plenty of room for any animal to roam and play around; especially fetch and frisbee which my dogs LOVE. I directly send photos and videos to your phone via text message rather than the Rover app because I’ve found several times during stays that photos I thought I sent would show as “failed to send,” so I prefer to send messages via iMessage since it shows if the message was delivered almost instantly. That is why my profile shows only 70% of photos sent to owners even though I basically spam your phone with photos and videos of your pet throughout the day. If you prefer me to use the Rover app, please let me know and I will do just that. I also don’t mind if you want to FaceTime with your pet at any time.
About: "Animal lover with a balanced life: three cats at home and a day job as a dog walker. I speak fluent 'meow' and know my way around a leash. Appreciate quiet evenings and active days outdoors. I’m your gal! I’m currently working on coding projects so my time is flexible for your babies! I’m not free on some Saturdays but I will also let you know before hand With three cats of my own, I'm skilled at catering to the unique needs and personalities of each pet, whether they're staying with me or I'm caring for them in your home.
About: I learn super quickly, caring, kind, honest, hardworking, efficient, and love animals and want to work with them more someday! I want a farm too. I am currently unemployed but have worked in the restaurant industry for 3 years. I will go to school twice a week for community college. I love to play with the animals, take them on walks to beautiful parks, and willingly to bath them. Feeding is the more important part.
“Jenny dropped in and spent time with our three dogs, making sure they had their potty break while we were out of town for the day. She was on time and the dogs adored her. I will definitely be a repeat customer. ❤”
About: I am 19 years old doing this so I can make some extra money on the side and currently take care of my older brother, who has autism, which has taught me how to remain composed, aware, and reliable in all situations. Those skills are easily applied to pet care, particularly with nervous, timid, or sensitive animals. For example, my own dog has depression anxiety which I make sure to tend to quickly! I can easily fit time with your lovely pets into my daily schedule. I'm free any time after 11AM because I get my brother on the bus at around nine in the morning. Since I'm still learning how to drive, I typically take the bus, train, or Uber to get around. The only thing I know is that I might have to wait until about 5 PM for my mom to return if she works overtime on a Friday, but that rarely ever happens. There is a chance that my schedule can improve so make sure to keep an eye out! I treat every pet under my care as if they were a member of my own family. Making them feel secure, understood, and loved is always my top priority. By feeding them on time, taking them for walks or play, and making sure they receive lots of attention and are comfortable, I try to keep things as simple as possible. I make sure they have everything they require, keep their area neat, and regularly change their water. To reassure the owner that their pet is happy, safe and in good care, I also provide updates and pictures
“Firstly, Pedro was very quick with his response and confirmation of availability. I had to leave Sacramento due to a family issue and he confirmed the appointment even though I requested it at the last minute. He followed all the instructions I left written on my door. My dog eats a natural diet along with kibble, and he prepared everything as I asked. He took her to potty in the correct area and left everything clean.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,990 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sheldon. 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 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.
