About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have years of experience working with large dogs with anxiety and high energy, especially German Shepherds. I have been trained in reconditioning and desensitization training for anxious/traumatized dogs. I also love working with small and medium dogs. I am very attuned to the body language of cats and dogs and am attentive to their nervous system to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I’m currently working part time and my schedule is very flexible. I can also do most of my work remotely so I can be with your pets even more. I can be available most days and nights. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine, whatever that may look like. I know that when you are away, that can be more stressful for your pet so I try to do whatever I can to make your pet more relaxed and happy. If I am house sitting overnight, I will clean any dishes I have used, launder any sheets or towels if I am able and generally leave a tidy space for you to return to.
“Michelle took great care of my kitties! We came back to them in such great spirits they probably didn’t miss us at all! She spent plenty of time playing and giving them affection.”
“Kathleen arrived on time, devoted the full half hour to Kalea. Our dog is nervous having recently had surgery and is in pain. Kalea opened up, trusting Kathleen. She was able to get massaging and some deeper rubs even some prom moves.”
“In one word - AMAZING! Sarah was soo great with our 2 year old male Vizsla. We had a bit of an odd request - requiring Sarah to pick up our dog, take him to our wedding venue, then take him back after photos and she had no issues what-so-ever. The last thing you want to worry about on your wedding day are the smaller details and Sarah made sure we had nothing to worry about with our boy :). I highly recommend Sarah to anyone in the area, she is a true dog lover and very easy to work with :)”
“Jennifer was great! She played with the dogs during the visits and sent plenty of pictures of their happy faces. It really helped to see that our fur babies were in good hands while we were away for the weekend. Will be booking with her again in the future!”
About: Dog, cat, parrot and fish owner for 10+ years (and a couple frogs as well 🐸 ) Patient and attentive, I want to give your animals the love they deserve while you’re away!! I work full time, so am available for drop ins and walks in the late afternoon/evenings and weekends! Happy to book last minute to meet your needs:) I am attentive and prioritize my animals’ comfort and safety, and pay close attention to the needs they are communicating. Your baby will be well cared for, the way I’d treat my own 🥰
“Curt is a superstar sitter! We’ve been booking for daily drop in visits for over a year and he's been a massive help to us. Curt is reliable, responsible and loving with our dogs. We especially appreciate the surprise toys he often brings our pups on his visits!”
“Trey was a life saver! He took great care of our two dogs for two drop in visits. He even arrived a few minutes early! He was very communicative, sent photos and gave me updates which is always a huge plus!! I will definitely be booking with Trey in the future. If you need someone dependable who will take great care of your pups, book Trey!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, so I have years of experience with animals of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to older pets who need extra patience and love. I currently have two dogs and a cat, and I’ve raised them since they were young, so I understand the attention, training, and care every animal needs. I’m an athlete and love going on walks, so I can keep up with high-energy dogs or take long, leisurely strolls with older pets. I’m also comfortable handling feisty or shy pets, and I always focus on building trust, keeping pets safe, and making sure they feel happy and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just companionship, I treat every animal like family and adapt to their unique personality and needs. I’m willing to go the extra mile (literally and figuratively) to make sure your pets feel cared for, safe, and comfortable. I just finished school and currently work as a waitress for about 4 hours a day, which leaves me with plenty of free time. I’m looking to spend those off-hours doing something I genuinely love caring for pets. My schedule is really flexible, so I’m able to fit in walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day and week. Whether you need regular visits or last-minute help, I’m happy to make it work around my shifts. When I’m caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so their pet feels safe and comfortable. I stick to feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions you leave. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality whether they’re playful, shy, or extra cuddly and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and reassurance while you’re away. I also respect your space by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. When caring for pets in my own home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and explore safely. My dogs are kept in my garage during visits so your dog has full freedom to roam in the yard or, if they are an indoor dog, stay inside the house comfortably. I already have two dogs and a cat, so I’m used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels safe and happy. Walks, playtime, and lots of love are always part of the day. No matter where your pet is, my goal is always the same: to keep them safe, happy, and loved just like they’re part of my own family.
“Melissa was amazing with my dogs. Terra is a Big puppy and needed lots of play and correction. Monty needed love and pets. She provided all that and more. It was HOT out and she checked their water and shade. She cleaned up messes. Then sent the best notes and pictures! She's a keeper.”
About: I have been a pet sitter since I was in middle school and have had the pleasure and opportunity to care for many different furry companions! I am no stranger to administering medications and have pet-sat many different dogs and cats of all sizes and shapes! I have no issue caring for cats and/or dogs that have any sort of deformities, amputations, or just look weird and funky in general. A dog is still a dog and a cat is still a cat, and every pet deserves love regardless of what they look like! I am currently a college student who loves caring for all kinds of fur babies! You can be sure I will have plenty of time to play with your pups and kittens to their hearts’ content! I’m still getting used to how this app works with its settings, so if you have any questions about pricing and scheduling, shoot me a text so we can discuss it! I'm willing to talk things out if you can't initially afford my rates! ¡También soy fluida en español! My clients will always receive the best care that I can give them. Every animal is different and has different needs, and I am prepared to meet them all! I'll be sure to send pictures and videos regularly of me and your pet(s) having a great time! I'm willing to protect your pet(s) as fiercely as you are, and I will happily administer medications and clean up messes! I take great pleasure and honor in making your best furry friends feel as safe and loved as they would if you were there!
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have my fair share of experience with a wide range of animals. I love all kinds of pets, creatures, critters, you name it! I believe all pets deserved to be treated with love and care. I helped raise our family puppies growing up, so I am familiar with potty training and kennel and leash training. I am familiar with strict regimes and medication application if needed. I also am quite strong (not to toot my own horn) but if needed, I am comfortable lifting geriatric dogs no greater than 80lbs. Hi, my name is Maddi and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a special place in my heart for dogs. I’m 27 and grew up in San Clemente, CA, where my family and I always had our labs by our side whether it was at the beach, on a hike, or camping under the stars. I am free in the mornings and afternoons for walks, and can squeeze in a beach day if your pets likes to go swimming! My work schedule is dynamic, but for most given days I can dedicate two-three hours for walks, cuddles, whatever else you could need. As an active, outdoorsy person, I know the importance of keeping pets happy, healthy, and engaged. I have hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits, and I treat every animal like my own, showering them with love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle session, or a weekend of pet sitting, I’m dedicated to making sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I am familiar and have experience training my family puppies, so if needed I can stick with a strict regimen. I will treat your pet with the utmost caution when it comes to walking in public/neighborhoods. I respect that not all dogs/animals are friendly but deserve to be outside as well, so I tend to walk on the opposite side of the street when passing another pet or person. I am also familiar with socialization and reading dog's social behaviors. At home, I make sure to double check that all exists are secured before I leave and that the house is locked before heading out. While I am indoors with pets, I will give them my undivided attention and love, as well as making sure they are well fed and have plenty of water for when they will be left alone. I will do whatever necessary to make sure that you and your pet feel safe and secure, and most of all happy!
“Ali was very thorough in checking in on our lil comrades. She provided photos for every check in and was even able to interact with our cats which is rare considering how shy they are. We will definitely be reaching out to her on future trips.”
“Maureen saved the day! I had to leave my kitty for 2 weeks and couldn't have asked for a more attentive sitter. The daily updates and pictures reassured me he was in good hands. Definitely will be using her again.”
“Kimberly is awesome! She takes great of the pups and clearly cares for them. We always feel comfortable when we are away knowing that Kimberly will care for dogs as if they were her own.”
About: Starting off through pet sitting for family and friends, to volunteering at the VCAS with all kinds of animals, I have been able to develop skills to help me provide care for your furry family! I currently work part-time in the mornings, so I will have plenty of time for pet sitting throughout the day and nights! Whether it be taking your animal or a walk, stopping by for a check-in, or even a furry friend sleepover, I’d be happy to help! I have a fenced yard and currently live with my parents whom also love animals. I have a friendly dog and cat in house currently!

Lilah was incredibly reliable and communicative and was successfully able to medicate both of my shy kitties. I will hire her again and recommend her to all my friends! I loved getting photos of my babies and was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were in excellent hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Somis on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,911 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Somis. 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 Somis. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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 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.
