“Kayley was wonderful! She took care of everything I asked of her and my cats Opal and Snowflake looked forward to here visits and play time💕💕💕 I highly recommend Hayley!”
“Annmarie stayed with my 3 cats (one of which is seriously ill) for 5 days. She administered medication, fed them, played with them and cleaned up after them. She sent pictures and updates multiple times. My house was clean and today when I got home, and most importantly, my cats were healthy and happy. I would absolutely use Annmarie again; she was great!”
“Lizzy dropped in to take care of our 2 cats while we were on vacation for a week. She was wonderful! She took care of everything and sent lots of updates on how things were going. We felt completely at ease knowing our cats were being cared for. I'd 100% recommend her!!”
“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 have over 10 years of professional animal care and veterinary experience, where I’ve tended to pets with all variations of personality and maintenance. While working as a lead at an animal boarding facility I gained many skills to support animals while stressed and away from their families. Every pet is treated like my own, and I earn their trust by respecting boundaries and accommodating every animal’s personal needs. I am an excellent nail trimmer/bather for cats and dogs who allow me to do so, and am able to pill most pets if needed. My life is centered around pet care, so the rest of my schedule shapes to that routine. The animals in my care come first before other engagements or plans. All items that could cause sensitivities in pets are kept clear of their reach, windows and doors stay closed to prevent walkabouts, animals remain leashed and under direct observation when outside. When several pets are together they are never left without supervision. I administer flea/tick treatment, bathe, trim nails, clean ears, and brush teeth for my personal pets on a schedule. Prescriptions are administered accurately, and individual food needs are met, such as allergies and prescription diets.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—dogs, cats, chickens, even a parrot—so caring for them is basically part of my DNA. I’m currently in school to become a dog trainer because working with animals isn’t just something I do, it’s genuinely what I love. I volunteer with a local shelter where I walk dogs, help ease kennel stress, and run playgroups for pups of all personalities. This year I even spent time volunteering at a dog shelter in Greece, which gave me hands-on experience with all kinds of temperaments and behavior quirks. I’m well-versed in positive reinforcement training and behavior modification, and I’m also certified in animal CPR and first aid—so your pet is in safe, capable hands. Whether your dog is shy, silly, high-energy, or needs a little extra patience, I’m here for it. Also I go by my middle name, Chasse. Pronounced chase. But Donald is fine too I'm currently finishing school to be a dog trainer and I only work on call. I also have conferences and school stuff that occasionally take me out of state, which will be reflected on my calendar. I do playgroups at the shelter 3pm on every Thursday. Outside of that, I'm avaible. I can't board pets in my own home unfortunately. When it comes to boarding in your home, I suppose we can work out the details
“So grateful for Emma! She was super responsive and able to accommodate a last minute booking when my normal pet sitter fell through. She kept me up to date with how my dog was doing and anticipated my dog’s needs while I was traveling by asking if I needed her to come earlier or later than planned based on when my flight was scheduled. My house looks exactly as I left it. Thank you for your help with Miso, Emma!! Will definitely be working with her in the future.”
About: Hello! I am a dog lover at heart! Spent my whole life with 2+ dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with training as well as just sitting on the couch cuddling. I have a small pup as my own right now but would love to be able to take great care of yours. I am the MOST available on the weekends and evenings for any type of service, and am willing to work with you to find time during the week days to fit your needs! I love the outdoors and have no problem walking or jogging your pup for you. If it’s a cat you have, I’d love to make them feel like home too! I appreciate your trust in me with your furry friends!
“This was our fourth and longest sit with Summer and we continue to be very happy with her level of service. She makes it easy and stress-free, and I’d recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter.”
“I was looking for someone who could give my cat his medicine and keep an eye on him incase he was in need of anything. Jenna was awesome and I can't wait to have her come cat sit again. Thank you Jenna!”
About: I've been living with dogs and cats since I was a little kid and I love to take care of and play with them I'm currently a college student and can not house sit during most weekdays, SORRY. I'm open every weekend and am willing to stay overnight Saturday-Monday. I am your humble servant and will follow any and every rule you set for your pet and will follow every instruction. It is your pet after all!
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and after 7 years of dog-sitting and pet care, I’ve learned that every dog is different. They all have their own personalities, routines, and little quirks, and I absolutely love getting to know them. 🩵 I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely care about making sure each dog feels comfortable and safe in my care. My experience includes everything from everyday pet sitting and companionship to caring for large, strong, high-energy, and less-trained dogs. I’ve also had the opportunity to shadow an experienced professional dog trainer, which gave me hands-on experience working with energetic dogs who need a little more patience, structure, and attention on walks. Something that’s especially important to me is that your pet is actually happy and comfortable while they’re in my care. I don’t want to just make sure they’re fed, walked, and taken care of physically—I want them to feel like they’re having a good day. Whether that means playing, getting some extra attention, going on a good walk, getting plenty of cuddles, or simply giving them space to relax, I try to pay attention to what each individual dog enjoys and needs. I know it can be difficult to leave your pets with someone else, so I take that trust seriously. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable with me and for you to feel confident knowing they’re being well cared for while you’re away. I’d love to meet your pup and get to know them! Rover is my full time job so other than other walks or meet and greets I may have to attend, I have a very open schedule and lots of time to devote to your pet and shouldn’t ever need to be gone for more than a couple hours if needed for your animals specific needs. :) I will make sure your pet doesn't get into anything they shouldn't. I'll respect yours, and your pets, home - cleaning up any and all messes created by your pet, and leaving no trace of my visit (other than a happy pet). I'll ensure I know about their habits and favorite toys before I work for you.
About: I have never had a dog of my own which encourages me to find ways to spend lots of time caring for dogs of other owners, and has provided me opportunity to get to know a variety of breeds. I love being outdoors and active, and it's even better when I have a dog with me for those long walks and days in the park. I am very attentive and energetic. I have experience caring for blind dogs. I can offer to care for dogs needing medication, and I can offer dog washing but not any other grooming services. I am currently working only gig-type jobs, and so I have ample flexibility in my schedule to care for your pet. I am generally able to accept same-day bookings, unless I happen to be out of town. When caring for pets in your home or walking dogs, I will consistently share photos. It is important to ensure backyard gates are closed and to be careful when entering a home to avoid a pet getting out. If walking your dog, please share with me their comfort level with other people/dogs, so I can advocate for their boundaries. I also use Rover as a client, so I know how it feels when a sitter has been safe and respectful in my home.
About: From a simple feed, check in and walk, to a week long house sit, I’ve had much experience taking care of all the sweet doggies out there! Having housed a few myself over the years, and a rescuer of one sweet little wiener named Bo, I will care for your best friend the best I can!! I’m a mom to three kids, and while they go to school during the day, I’d honestly love to make a little extra money to be able to support them more with their hobbies and other things they would love to do participate in to enhance their future! Taking care of pets seem like a great way to do that. I thrive on instructions for you pet(s) to ensure I can meet the needs to your little besties as well as satisfying the needs of their parents (you!)
About: I’ve taken care of cats, I have 2 cats as well! While I was in college my roommates had dogs that I would watch when they would leave or couldn’t come home in time. I’m good with both both cats and dogs. Im currently working part time, I don’t think pet sitting is a job it’s so fun to do so I would love it as a side job. I’m also getting my masters in biomedical sciences right now My pets have access to every inch of the house and are well cared for, toys, scratch post and many treats! I love playing with them, taking them outside, feeding and can also clean litter boxes
About: I have worked with both puppies and senior dogs, i have 2 poochon puppies that are 1 year old. I am currently going to school to be a vet technician and I volunteer at the animal shelter in the cat and dog rooms. I have experience handling all different types and sizes of dogs. Im a college student and currently working part-time in the late afternoons. So I have plenty of time to walk, play and give potty breaks! I have a fenced yard suitable for small to medium dogs. I have a large room that I can close off that has tile flooring and access to the backyard and also have pens if dogs need to be separated.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in South Bay is $24
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South Bay
I've never used a pet sitter before so I was kind of apprehensive about how things might go but Rachel put my mind at ease with her confidence and pet-friendly attitude. My two kitties are super-skittish around visitors but Rachel made every effort to get them to come out of hiding. She was mindful of keeping their breakfast routine and refreshing their litter box and went above and beyond to hand wash their Delectables food bowls so there wouldn't be any lingering smells in the house when I returned home. She even ended up having to respond to a little bit of kitty 'urp', cleaning the spot. I would definitely have Rachel sit for my kitties again if I have a need in the future.
Helena provides excellent service!! I couldn't be happier with her dedication, detailed attention and communication while I'm away. Over the last few years she has taken wonderful care of my adult cats. Now that they have passed, I have 2 new very young kittens so I relied completely on her for the special attention my kittens needed. I give her the highest recommendation.
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!

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
