“Channing is a wonderful communicator and took such great care of Max and Gloria! I felt very comfortable being away from home for such a long time knowing she was taking care of them. Highly recommend!”
“Gabriel was wonderful with our 2 cats. Our cats opened up to him despite them not being big fans of strangers. He was on time for every visit and followed our instructions perfectly. Provided great daily updates. We would definitely reach out to him again the next time we need a sitter.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Growing up, I raised and cared for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, and rabbits through 4-H, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all kinds. I also volunteered at the Napa Animal Shelter, where I helped care for animals and learned the importance of patience, safety, and compassion. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve pet sat for family, friends, and neighbors, including feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on their pets while they were away. I’ve also fostered kittens, which gave me experience caring for young animals and paying close attention to their individual needs. I currently have two dogs and four cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away !!! Caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy, it's what I’ve chosen to dedicate my time to. Because pet care is my primary focus, I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable care throughout the week. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, stick to their routine, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. With years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities, I understand that trust is everything. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra patience, I’ll provide calm, compassionate care while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll treat both your home and your pets with the same respect and care I’d expect for my own, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout every visit !!
“Katie did a wonderful job taking care of our two kitties. She quickly earned their trust, played with them, sent the cutest pictures and successfully administered pills to one of the cats - which is no easy feat. We are so glad we found her and will hire Katie, without any hesitation whatsoever, for our future trips.”
“Kelly was great! We scheduled her last minute to look after our cat during a weekend trip. I really appreciated her being flexible and coming to do a meet-and-greet on short notice. She helped reprogram the auto-feeder that I had forgotten to fully set up. She even got our very shy cat to come out from under the bed for treats!”
About: I am a person who cares! And I care most when it comes to your pets. My pets are my life and I understand that they are family. As an uber driver, I have a very open schedule and the ability to make frequent stops to check in with babies throughout my day! I would come equipped with a first aid kit and all safety materials. I would assure I had participated in any and all safety trainings available.
“Michelle really went above and beyond with my (very dramatic) kitty who needed regular meds while we were gone. She was so accommodating and creative at figuring out how to make sure my cat was taken care of. 🥰”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I first started fostering puppies and kitten at the age of 12. I am new to Rover but I have extensive hands on experience, including working for two years at small animal hospital and volunteering at local animal shelter. Currently, I am continuing my education in Veterinary Medicine during my undergrad, with the ultimate goal of becoming a Veterinarian. I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort and well-being. Right now, I’m currently out for summer break. This gives me the flexibility to cater to your pets, ensuring all of their needs are met! House sitting servicies includes staying overnight with your pet so that they have confort and company in their own home. I’d be around for daytime care aswell for potty breaks every 4-6 hours, meals, playtime and of course cuddles! 30 minute walks include a fun stroll through the neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your pet some exercise, mental stimulation and a breath of fresh air!
About: I have had dogs all my life. Whether it was a big dog or a small dog I love dogs of all kinds. I have a flexible schedule and work to make sure you have an enjoyable experience. I would love to take care of your dog or cat when the time arises you need services to care for your beloved pet. As a dog mom myself I know the key importance of leaving your little one in good hands. I have a one year old cavachon dog named Brynn and she means everything to me! I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Contact me and we can set up a meet and greet. I look forward to working with your dog or cat!
“Lauren and Kari are great with our pup! They're responsive and follow directions, and most importantly, Baron loves them. Thank you, I'm sure we'll be booking you for visits again in the futue!”
“Maicie has been incredible with our two pups. Both are medically complex, and she’s taken the time to allow them to get to know her on their own terms. She’s kind, responsive, punctual, and has been so helpful to us as we worried so much about leaving them all day while we are at work. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind hearted and patient dog sitter. Thank you, Maicie!”
“Victoria was super attentive and a great communicator. We just needed a quick drop in for our cat this time, but we would definitely love to have Victoria take care of Johnny again!”
About: I have loved all animals since I was a kid and have spent my career caring for exotic, companion,wild, and farm animals in veterinary, rehabilitation, and sanctuary settings. After spending 2 years working as a veterinary assistant at a fast paced emergency vet hospital so I feel prepared to recognize and handle emergencies and administer first aid. I have a full time job but live next door to work so I always come home for lunch and am able to come home more frequently or work from home if needed most days. I have a good amount of flexibility in my schedule with notice. My goal is always to make pets feel as comfortable and to have as few changes in their routine as possible. In my home, your pets will feel like a part of my family. If your pet cannot safely and comfortably be around my animals, I'm happy to arrange to stay in your home. I approach animal care with empathy and patience.
“Sabine is great with my two cats! I've used her a couple times and each time she sends lots of pictures and gives me updates on the cats behavior. One of my cats is a little slow in warming up to strangers so Sabine gives her space but still makes sure she's doing good. My cats are well taken care of and I would highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 4,464 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Shellville Colony. 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.
