“Courtney is the dog companion every dog parent could hope for. She takes a personal interest in your pooch to the extent I had the feeling she did nothing but attend individually to my dog's needs for exercise, stimulation, and comfort all day long (we needed her for day sitting while we entered a national preserve that did not allow dogs). She texted pictures of their excursions throughout the day, thus reassuring us that all was well. She also provided tips on local 'in' spots, places to take our dog where we wouldn't need her services, gifted us with homegrown nectarines, and just imagined what she could do to make our visit memorable. We fervently wish we could have Courtney on call wherever we travel, but are so glad she lives and works in one of our all-time favorite vacation spots. Thank you Courtney, and Sedona thanks you as well.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from extra small to extra large. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and general engaging with dogs of diverse temperaments and personalities. I also have extensive experience with senior dogs. Writing is not one of my strong suits so please do not let that discourage you from sending a message or requesting a booking! I offer flexible scheduling throughout the week to accommodate your dog walking, drop-in visit, and dog sitting needs. For daily dog walking and check-ins, I am available seven days a week during mid-day and evening, which is perfect for breaking up the workday while you are away. For overnight dog sitting, my calendar opens up for both weekdays and weekends, allowing me to provide dedicated, round-the-clock care and company in the comfort of your home. To ensure I can coordinate my daily routes and give every pet my full, unhurried attention, I appreciate at least 24 hours' notice for walks and drop-ins, and as much advance notice as possible for multi-day sitting requests. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment. I carefully assess each pet's unique needs, ensuring that the surroundings are secure and pet-friendly. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to maintain consistency in the pet's routine, helping to reduce stress. By establishing a trusting relationship with both the pet and the owner, I ensure that all care provided is reliable and compassionate, whether it's in my home or theirs. We can arrange a meet-and-greet prior to any appointments to ensure everyone, including your dog, feels comfortable. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have.

About: I have over 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, which gave me a deep understanding of the daily responsibility, patience and attentiveness pets require. I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, exercise needs and paying close attention to changes in behavior or health. In her senior years, I also gained experience administering medications and providing the extra care senior pups need to stay comfortable and supported. That experience taught me how important it is to be patient, observant and gentle with animals. I treat every pet with the same level of care and respect I would give my own, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their fur babies are safe, comfortable, and well looked after while they’re away. I keep a flexible daily schedule which allows me to plan pet visits throughout the day and adapt to different routines. I’m available for morning, midday and evening walks or drop-in visits depending on what works best for you and your pet. When caring for pets in their own home my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow the instructions you provide for feeding, walks, medications, playtime and any specific habits or preferences your pet has. During visits I make sure pets have fresh water, get the attention, love and exercise they need. I also take time to interact with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while you’re away. I understand that every pet and household is different, so I’m always happy to adapt to your family’s normal routine and any specific care instructions you’d like followed.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands on experience caring for cats and dogs of all personalities, ages, and needs. I currently spend much of my free time volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I help care for and socialize cats, dogs, and small mammals while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also have experience owning and caring for special needs cats, as well as large breed dogs so I understand the patience, attention, and compassion required to care for pets who need a little extra support. I have experience administering daily medication, feeding special diets, high energy dogs, and socializing introverted cats. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, senior, or requires special care, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away. I also have experience with small animals such as guinea pigs, sugar gliders, and rabbits. Providing dependable, loving care for animals is something I’m truly passionate about, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently work remotely, so I spend much of my time at home. I love spending time on the couch snuggling up to a cat I am more than happy to take care of your pet in your home where it’s comfortable. No need to stress it out by changing its environment. It will already be missing its owner. It shouldn’t have to miss its home too!

About: 🐾 A Lifetime of Loving and Caring for Animals! 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life!

About: We’re Back! 🐾❤️ We’re a team with a shared love for animals! We actually met while working at Pet Food Express, so caring for animals has been part of our story from the very beginning. We both have hands-on pet care experience, and I’ve been in the animal industry since around 2012, with a background in pet nutrition, retail, grooming, and volunteer work. We’re experienced with pets of all sizes, seniors, and animals with special needs, and we’re happy to accommodate medication needs. Now, I work mornings and my partner Ashley works from home, so your pets will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day! We live in a spacious three-bedroom home with lots of natural light and a large backyard for exploring, playing, and relaxing. We love dogs of all sizes, from tiny teacups to Great Danes, and we’re big cat lovers, too! Nail trims are available upon request for an additional fee. Our goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home. We can’t wait to meet your furry family! 🐶🐱💕 I am very flexible, accommodating, and available to work around you and your pets schedule, making it easy for drop off and pick up times. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pug to keep your pup company. Our pug is also crate trained and will be separated when my eyes can’t be on them. Our home is very calm and inviting. We don’t do loud noises or have a lot company over. We always love to have pups around! Can’t wait to meet you and your pet!

About: When I adopted my first dog he was incredibly nervous around people he is now very friendly and loves scenting challenges. I’ve used my skills to help others improve their relationship with their animals and created a trusting relationship to care for pets when their families are out of town. I have a flexible schedule that can be adjusted to meet your needs. I do prefer to include some time for an animal introduction for all new families. I have a strong history of animal care that meet the needs of my clients. Every pet is different and I am able to adapt and accommodate to different attitudes, schedules for feeding, medical care, walking and entertaining. I work to make sure pets are comfortable and clients return to the same feeling as if they just got home from work.

About: Animals have been a cherished part of my life for over 30 years, and I understand that our pets are truly members of the family. Whether they’re playful, affectionate, independent, shy, or a little quirky, I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and individualized attention. I have extensive personal experience caring for both dogs and cats and appreciate their unique personalities and needs. From energetic dogs who love attention and companionship to independent cats who prefer affection on their own terms, I enjoy building trust and helping animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a registered nurse, I bring an additional level of responsibility, compassion, and attention to detail to pet care. I’m experienced in following detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent routines, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or well-being. I understand how especially important this can be for senior pets or animals who need a little extra patience and attention. I also know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved companions in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide the same warmth, respect, and attentiveness I would want for my own pets, while keeping you connected through regular updates, photos, and open communication. Whether your furry family member needs companionship, playtime, reassurance, or simply a calm and caring presence, I would love the opportunity to get to know them! I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to thoughtfully plan pet care around each animal’s individual needs. I enjoy peaceful environments, spending time with animals, and maintaining familiar routines. I believe consistency and companionship make a meaningful difference in helping pets feel comfortable while their families are away. I prefer to discuss each pet’s schedule, personality, and care requirements in advance so I can make sure we’re a wonderful fit. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and entrust them with a beloved family member. As a registered nurse, I’m accustomed to maintaining safe environments, following detailed instructions, and paying close attention to changes that may require additional care or communication. I respect each household’s routines, boundaries, and preferences. I take care to maintain a clean, peaceful environment, secure doors and gates, and follow feeding, medication, and household instructions carefully. I believe in open communication and will provide updates and photos throughout our time together. My goal is for you to return to a happy, comfortable pet and a home that has been treated with care and respect.

About: I am currently a medical student with a pretty flexible schedule and deep love for all animals. I have owned cats my entire life and a couple dogs. I care greatly for the happiness of pets. They deserve nothing but love and comfort in their caregiving. A bond between pet and owner is very special and I know how hard it is to have obligations that take you away from them for any amount of time. It’s important to me that your pet receives the comfort, affection, and mental stimulation they need while they are waiting for you to come home. I am a lover of all dogs, big dogs, little dogs, young and old. I am very excited to get to know your dog by walking them, feeding them, and stopping by to take care of your dog if you are out of town. Puppies are no problem. I may not have as much experience working with dogs but I have not met a dog that did not like me and I am very friendly and excited to spend more time around dogs. I won't let you down! I have a deep love for cats as well. They are simply such a gift. I have much more experience in caring for cats. I have school 4 days a week from 2-4 hours a day. I have plenty of free time for loving on your sweet pets. I am willing and able to come to your home where your pet is most comfortable! I also have the ability to host them at my apartment where we have nearby walking paths and a dog park!

“Brenda was everything I could hope for in a live-in cat sitter. She was responsible, trustworthy, and established an instant rapport with my cat during our initial meeting. I appreciated her regular updates, photos, and communication. When I returned from a two week vacation, my kitty was calm and happy and my house was spotless. I highly recommend Brenda, and will absolutely hire her again.”

Ronald is very responsive, reliable, and likable. We appreciate his honesty since our cat, Percy, is very cautious of anyone who is not family and our dog, Joey, is suspicious at first, but, ended up in his lap once he realized he was just there to help!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Sonoma

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Sonoma is $31 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $45 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 1,190 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sonoma. 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 Sonoma. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% 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.
