About: I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. Also, I have been trusted to check on my neighbor's pets. I have volunteered at a local animal shelter where I fed cats and dogs. Also I walked the dogs. I'm currently taking college classes part time, so I have plenty of time to stop by and care for your pets. Also, helping others always makes my day. I keep track of how often a pet needs to be feed and always check their water. Also, I pet them and say hi if they are friendly or give them space if they are shy. When walking a dog I make sure their leash is secure and their collar comfortable. Safety and organization is my priority. I keep notes on an individual pet's needs.
“Morgan did a great job of taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She was very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure our dog was safe and well cared for. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Paige was wonderful with our kitten. She is very thorough and punctual. We loved how she kept us updated on all the details and he really enjoyed his play time and company while we were gone.”
“Olivander is great! He is very patient with my Dalmatian, who sometimes has a tough time adjusting to new people. He also takes the time to work on training, which is awesome! Definitely recommend him for your dog or other pets!”
“Alicia is the best! She is so patient and kind. We have a very reactive dog and she came back week after week to work with him and to earn his trust to hopefully build up to overnight stays. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Joy takes such wonderful care of our 3 cats. I’m an anxious person and leaving them alone used to make me nervous, but Joy goes above and beyond for them. She gives very detailed updates and pictures with every visit. She stays to play with them and clean their box, and she even lets them outside on their catio when she visits. She’s a wonderful cat sitter with a great heart. She’s very communicative, attentive, and sweet. My boys love her and we’re so happy to have her as their caregiver.”
“Kate was a wonderful caretaker for our two elderly cats while we were on vacation. She was very communicative, caring, and professional. We would love to book her again next time we're out of town.”
“Celina was amazing! She made the process super easy and was so kind. She communicated with us really well. We loved the daily pics and updates she sent and it made us feel so much better about leaving our boy Hugo behind. Hugo also loved her and even jumped up on her shoulders, so I'd say the feeling was mutual! First time for us using Rover and it was the best experience. Would highly recommend Celina to anyone using Rover!”
“Allison did a fantastic job! She is communicative, responsible and very creative. It was fun to get her updates to hear how she kept our kittys entertained while we were out of the house. It's clear she has a love for animals 😻”
“Gage did such a wonderful job helping with our little fur babies. He made sure that they were fed and made sure their litter box was cleaned. We let him know that we would throw out the litter and that he didn’t have to do that but he went above and beyond and took care of that on his own. Gage we will absolutely keep you as our #1 the next time we have to go out of town. Thank you so much.”
About: Since the age of 10, I have taken care of birds, dogs, cats, a turtle, some frogs, and horses. I worked as an assistant stable manager at the LA Equestrian Center, I spent a summer volunteering at the National Aviary, and I have also done training on my own pets, (parakeets and puppies). I love taking care of animals and discovering their individual quirks and personalities. It is important to me that they feel comforted by me, and that people can count on me to take good care of their pets. I am a freelance work-from-home artist, and I am available during the day on weekdays, and also on occasional weekends to take care of your pets. I respect every client's specific preferences and their pet's needs, and will treat their home with the utmost respect. I am a clean and organized person, and strive to keep my client's homes as clean and organized as possible.
“Madison was reliable and attentive to my elderly pups’ needs. She communicated well with us. She provided medication and special diet. Will definitely book her again!”
“Heather, did a great job caring for my cat. She even brought a laser pointer to engage my cat in play and make her more comfortable. I highly recommend Heather and look forward to hiring her again in the future.”
“Shannon was amazing with our cats. One is extremely shy and she brought her out of her shell (and from hiding under the bed). She’s conscientious and we loved all the photos in her updates. We’d absolutely ask her to drop in again.”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Somerset West is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Somerset West
Our cat was so excited to see Joy again! I know my cat and my home are in great hands whenever I’m away. I really appreciate how she goes above and beyond with her reports, including lots of photos, videos, and detailed visit descriptions. Joy is wonderful to work with, and most importantly, my cat absolutely loves her!
Mandy was very easy to work with! She was quick to respond when initially searching for a pet sitter, which was very helpful. She checked-in on our two cats once a day for a week, and always provided cute photos in the Rover Card. Sage and Smokey seemed to like her! Would recommend!
Annee has been and will be my go-to for taking excellent care of my fur babies :). You can count on her to do exactly what you ask, provide prompt communication and regular updates and look out for your fur family while you’re away. Example: we had a heat wave while I was out of town. She updated me on this and let me know she was ensuring they had enough water to stay hydrated and as usual kept me updated. Whenever I return from being out of town when Annee is taking care of them, I am always confident that they’ll be in good health and not stressed out from me being away. We love Annee!
Liv did an amazing job pet sitting Cosmo and our fish for 5 days! She was incredibly reliable, sending daily check-ins and awesome photo updates that we loved seeing. Cosmo bonded with her right away and got so close to her. We felt totally at ease knowing everyone was in such great hands. Thank you, Liv, for taking such wonderful care of our pets! Highly recommend!
Sahra is just wonderful! This was the first time we used Rover and were anxious pet parents. She was amazing at communicating and our girls loved her. She even got our very shy cat to play and allow her to pet her! She followed our instructions to a T and was receptive to changes we made during the booking. We will definitely book again with her!
Alejandra did an excellent job of caring for my pets while I was out of town! After sending the booking request, she immediately reached out to me and was able to stop by for a new client visit on the same day! She was a breeze to work with and gave me updates and pictures each day. My cats were well cared for and I came back to a happy household. I will definitely be re-booking with Alejandra for the foreseeable future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Somerset West on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,490 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Somerset West. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Somerset West. On Rover:

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.
