About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have around 12 years of experience on and off pet sitting for both dogs and cats! I also have a Chihuahua mix of my own, so I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets. I have experience caring for dogs with anxiety (including my own!), administering medications, and adjusting to different pets’ personalities, routines, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I know every animal is different, and I always want them to feel as comfortable, safe, and loved as possible while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and am always happy to send pictures and updates for some extra peace of mind! I currently work part-time and also do independent work, so my daily schedule is very flexible! This allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can accommodate longer visits if needed. I have a Chihuahua mix of my own, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care! While I’m not able to host pets in my own home since I have a Chihuahua mix, I’m more than happy to care for them in the comfort of their own home, where they’re most familiar with their surroundings. I’m available for anything from quick drop-ins to extended daytime visits and can stay for several hours if needed (just no overnights!). I always make sure to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I also have experience with anxious dogs, so I’m very patient and understanding with pets who may need a little extra attention or reassurance. I’m always happy to send pictures and updates throughout my visits so you know your pet is happy, safe, and well taken care of!

About: Where do I begin... Dogs hold a place close to my heart! I have owned dogs for OVER 10 years and I have never met one that hasn't made a good impression on me for life. My experience ranges from elderly care to puppies/teenage years, female and male dogs! No two animals are alike, therefore care looks different for everyone and I believe each pet deserves to experience quality care away from their owner. Fun fact: my mom still calls me the dog whisperer like the show haha On my weekends I do have availability for Fridays (5:30-8pm) And Saturday -Sunday (10am-8pm) **Weekdays after 5:30pm can be discussed if needed by the owner(s)** My pets were crate trained, so I'm familiar with that aspect! With my past experience in pet sitting, I also am familiar with following a schedule for your fur (or hairless) baby.

About: I have always loved taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I have worked as a kennel technician for over 2 years, and have fallen in love with providing special care towards animals. There, I create safe play groups, feed, walk, play, and of course, clean! I will make sure to pay close attention to any special needs your pet may have. Accommodating to your dogs energy level, temperament, age, and health is very important to me. I will ensure to pay very close attention to any issues or concerns I may see while spending time with your pup. I believe maintaining a clean and tidy environment is important to an animals health. I will provide updates with messages and pictures about our time together. I look forward to hanging out and connecting with you and your pet! I am currently a college student, working an odd schedule. I will try to accommodate accordingly to whatever fits best for you. I make your pets needs and care a #1 priority, next to school work of course. I have 2 dogs of my own, Luna (labradoodle), who I have trained since she was a puppy, and Lacy (French Bulldog), who I am currently training. Although I do not have professional training experience, I will say I put all my patience into providing simple tasks that can better your dogs skills. Whether if it’s during walks, crate time, or a simple sit and stay, I will provide my best efforts for your pup to succeed in these things. Along with training, I always make sure to spend quality time with my puppies because we are what’s most important to them. I believe playtime is very important to keeping a dog young and healthy! In any clients home, I make sure to spend as much quality time with the clients dog to build a strong connection.

About: I believe pet sitting should be more than simply feeding a pet and taking them outside. I want every pet to have a safe, happy and personalized day that fits their own routine, personality and needs. I offer personalized care plans with walks, playtime, enrichment, meals, quiet rest, cuddles and plenty of attention. I can also provide photo and video updates throughout the day so you can see how your pet is doing while you are away. For dogs, I can create a “Doggy Day” routine including morning pickup when available, a park walk, play and exercise, mealtime, quiet time and another walk before bringing them home. I also offer overnight stays, boarding, house sitting, drop in visits and individual walks. For cats and small pets, I can follow their normal routine in their own home, including feeding, fresh water, litter/cage care, playtime and attention. Every pet is different, so before a booking I want to learn what makes your pet comfortable, what they love, what they dislike and exactly how you want me to care for them. I have a flexible schedule and can arrange pet care around your needs. I offer weekday and weekend care, including walks, drop-in visits, daytime care, overnight stays and boarding when available. I especially enjoy creating personalized daytime routines for pets whose parents are working or traveling. Depending on the service and my availability, I can provide morning pickup, daytime care, walks, playtime, meals, rest time, photo updates and evening drop-off. Before each booking, I like to learn your pet’s normal schedule and follow their routine as closely as possible. My goal is to make the experience comfortable and stress-free for both you and your pet. You don’t have to worry about simply leaving your pet somewhere — I’ll create a little plan for their day. 🐾When available, I can pick up your pet in the morning and bring them home in the evening, so you don’t have to rearrange your workday.🐾 I take safety and trust very seriously. Before each booking, I like to learn about your pet’s personality, routine, habits, triggers and any special instructions. I provide a calm, clean and comfortable environment and never leave a pet unattended when close supervision is needed. I carefully follow the owner’s feeding, walking and care instructions. For stays in my home, I only accept pets that are a good fit for my environment and schedule. For house sitting, I respect the client’s home and keep the pet’s normal routine as much as possible. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel comfortable knowing how your pet is doing.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young from my own to neighbors. I gained a lot of experience working in an animal hospital with many different dogs big and small. From puppies to senior citizens I am so happy to play/chill and do whatever is best for the dog. I am experienced in administering medication when needed. I am so excited to get some pet love so I will make as much work around my schedule as possible! I am regularly available Monday/Wednesday/Friday before 11am and after 2pm, Tuesday/Thursday after 11am, and flexible in weekends. Feel free to reach out even if it may not fit with my availability, I am happy to try and make things work! I always keep things clean, like how I would want to leave my pet in my own house. All pets will get so much love and treats if allowed.😉 Before leaving, I will always make sure water bowls are full and doors are locked!

Katie is absolutely amazing!! This was the first time I had to leave my two cats (my children) without a family member to watch them. I was away for only a week, but I was incredibly worried. Katie absolved all those worries! I was able to fully enjoy my vacation knowing she was going to be there for my girls every evening (^: I received videos and pictures everyday, plus a detailed review of how my girls were doing. She was very communicative throughout the whole week, even when I was unreachable for much of the day. I forgot to take the garbage out before I left, but she took it out for me which I was greatly appreciative of!!! She even took care of my precious plants! If you’re worried about leaving your fur babies when you go away, fear not! Katie is wonderful!!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Silver Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Silver Lake is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $31 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 November 2026, there are 189 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Silver Lake. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Silver Lake. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
