“Amazing in every way I can think of, and far exceeded my expectations. This was my first time using Rover and I cannot think of a better sitter to have gotten than Kelli. From the attention she gave my cat Skye, to all the pictures she took of him and the respect and care she showed for my home. It felt like family watching the pets and I couldn’t ask for more.”

“Aaliyah was great with my Beau. He’s very passionate about his pool time and Aaliyah made him a happy boy by playing fetch with him in the pool. She was very communicative which I really appreciate.”

“Helena is kind, caring, and so good with animals. I appreciated that she was so patient and gentle with our very skittish, senior cat. Helena was wonderful and I absolutely will book with her again!”

“We are VERY happy with Adaline’s care of our two cats. Her communication and information about the drop-in visits were thorough. She was on-time and sent us a few photos from each check-in. I am comfortable recommending her care and will book her services again in the future if needed.”

“Hannah was wonderful. I loved the rover card update on her drop in visit with Luna. I will definitely be booking more drop in visits for Luna in the future. Thank you so much for looking in on her while I had a long work day, it really helped ease my mind that she had a good break and playtime when I couldn't be home. I knew Luna was going to be in good hands after our meet and greet!”
“Annmarie was fabulous! I would use her again! She is thoughtful and caring about your pet. Sent pictures and you can tell she cares for your family pet kindly. So glad to have found her!!! Thank you”

“Chandra provided excellent services to our pets and our families needs . She went above and beyond and we are so very grateful, excellent communication and care . We highly recommend Chandra , thank you , thank you ,thank you”

“Matthew did weekly drop-ins for our Murphy while we were on vacation and our house sitter was at work. We wanted to make sure he had some mid-day time to stretch, play, have a bathroom break, etc. Matthew was a great communicator and treated Murphy great! It was so reassuring to know he was taking such good care of our pup.”

“Lisa definitely lived up to the other glowing reviews. She visited our house daily to feed, water and take care of the litter box for our two cats. She is reliable and even made friends with our often-shy Siamese kitty. We appreciated the daily pictures and reports cards while we were away on our week-long trip. We would highly recommend Lisa for your away pet-sitting needs! Hopefully she will still be providing here excellent services the next time we take a trip to visit family.”


About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own. I started walking dogs at 12 years old and spent multiple summers walking dogs to earn money for trips. Since I was 13, I have also provided in-home dog sitting for various families. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and providing attentive care while owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Because I work part-time as a backup, my schedule has great built-in flexibility. While my exact hours can vary week to week, pet care is a top priority for me, and I can easily adapt to fit your pet's needs. I am available for early morning, evening, and weekend care, as well as flexible drop-in visits and house sitting. I always communicate my availability in advance and aim to accommodate your preferred feeding, walking, and care routines as smoothly as possible. Safety and peace of mind are my absolute top priorities when caring for your pets in your home. I strictly follow all owner instructions to maintain your pet's regular routine and keep them feeling secure in their home environment. I pay close attention to safety during walks, double-check that doors and gates are secure, and ensure hazardous items stay out of reach. You can count on reliable communication and regular photo updates during every visit so you know your home and pets are completely safe.
“Johanna is my go-to and I'd give them more than 5 stars if I could. They're easily the most trustworthy sitter I've ever had. They follows my cat's care instructions closely and does a fantastic job at providing detailed updates and lots of photos as well, so I can rest assured he's in good hands. Most importantly, Oscar adores her!”

“Yvonne was nothing but wonderful! She exceeded all expectations I had, and went above and beyond with my pups all while showing the utmost respect for myself and my home. Clear and effective communication, would recommended her to anyone and plan on using her services again in the future :)”

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m an avid hiker and have been lucky to share many trails with amazing “trail dogs” over the years. I’ve also pet sat for coworkers, doing drop-ins multiple times a day, and I’m currently providing overnight care for a puppy—something I truly enjoy. Over time, I realized this is something I’d love to do more of. When I say “us,” I mean my little household too: I have a mixed-breed dog and a cat. My cat is gentle and friendly and gets along well with dogs. My dog, Ziggy, is my first male and a rescue from the pound. He’s been a challenge at times, but with patience, consistency, and lots of love, he’s made wonderful progress—and continues to do so. Because of that experience, I have a special place in my heart for shelter dogs and pets who may need a little extra patience, care, and understanding. I’d love the opportunity to offer that same compassion and support to your pets, helping them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I happily offer drop-ins and overnight care on weekends and holidays. If there would be a special need, we most likely could work this out. I care for pets based on their normal routine and your preferences. Whether in your home or during overnights, I focus on feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, along with any special instructions you provide. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining the routine they’re used to.
“Samantha did a great job with my little Kitty Whompuss. She was timely and very responsible. Her visit photos were great and made me feel like my fur ball was in good hands while I was away. I will absolutely ask for her support again in the future.”

“Alejandra has been providing 1x a week check ins over lunch for my aussie Cosmo over the last few months, and she does a fantastic job! She's very communicative and flexible when I've had last minute cancelations, always shows up on time, and sends me the most adorable photos of Cosmo every week. I would definitely recommend Alejandra to anyone looking for someone reliable to drop in on their pups and give them some love while they're at work 😊”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South Bay
This was first time using Rover. Helena was wonderful! She took the time with my very timid cats. Went above and beyond what i had asked of her. Anything that seemed off or not quite right with pets or surroundings while I was gone she let me know which I greatly appreciated. Helena will definitely be my go to sitter!
This was our first time using Rover and I am very pleased. Allison did an amazing job taking care of my two cats. She communicated well with me and even cleaned up after their messes. I feel more at ease knowing that I can trust the care of my cats when needed again in the future.

Matthew was great! He was consistent and reliable. He seems to really love pet sitting, and was a great match for our dog. My dog FlapJack loves to walk fast and sniff everything, and Matthew was happy to accommodate that. He is also flexible and communicative. My flights got delayed and I was worried about modifying our booking last minute, but he walked me through it and was happy to help us out a few more days. I plan to book with Matthew again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in South Bay on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,476 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South Bay. 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 South Bay. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
