About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I've helped rescue nine cats and raised seven from kittens to adulthood, which has given me extensive experience with feline care and behavior. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and building a bond with them through play, attention, and consistent care. In addition to cats, I regularly help care for my family's dog through walks, playtime, and daily care. I also have experience raising and caring for ducks, which has taught me the importance of providing consistent care, maintaining routines, and paying attention to each animal's needs. While cats are where most of my experience lies, I'm excited to work with dogs and other animals as well. I'm reliable, attentive to detailed care instructions, and dedicated to making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, exercise, or specialized care, I'll treat them with the same patience and attention I give my own animals. I'm currently on summer break from college, so I'll have almost unlimited free time to play and care for your pets! I also don't mind weird hours, day or night. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any other care requirements provided by the owner. I like to be extra attentive and keep a close eye on pets because their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while you're away, helping them feel happy and secure in their familiar environment.
“We loved Helena, she treated our old dog with such great care. We will definitely be booking with her again and so appreciate her taking care of our dog.”
“Yvonne was great with taking care of our dog when we needed someone for a last minute trip. She was quick to schedule a meet and greet, was very kind, and was always quick to respond whenever I messaged her to check in. I would definitely recommend her and will rebook with her in the future!”
“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”
“Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in on very short notice to care for my dogs and made the entire experience stress-free. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, was incredibly kind and professional, and kept me updated with regular check-ins and lots of photos. Knowing my dogs were so well cared for gave me incredible peace of mind while I was away. She was so great, I've booked Natalie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Sarah is a phenomenal sitter! She followed instructions extremely well, and asked questions for clarity. She took such good care of our girls, especially our senior cat, who is end of life. We will be booking get again. Thank you Sarah!! Everyone was so relaxed and calm when we got home, unlike previous Rover sitters.”

“Johanna is always so wonderful! She sends tons of pictures and long, diligent reports on how Oscar is doing, which makes me feel reassured when I need to leave town. She really goes above and beyond every time!”
“Samantha did a great job dropping in on our two cats. I was able to enjoy my trip so much better knowing the cats were in good hands. She sent tons of photos every day and spent quality time playing with them.”
“Kaci is amazing she followed our suggestions and directions perfectly, and even our super skittish spicy cat seemed to stay near her and let her pet her! Loved seeing the card afterwards with the photos, our kitties looked so relaxed around her. Really put us at ease while we were away!”
“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: Hello my name is Davis and I recently moved to the PNW! I have been taking care of dogs and cats since a young age, and now that I’m living away from family I’ve been missing my time spent with animals! Big or small, I love pet sitting and walking dogs, giving them the compassion, friendly energy, and patience they deserve! I am very active and would love to bring your dog on a hike or run with me. I am very good at making sure all you and your pets' needs are met, and am easy to work with! I also take great pet photos and will be sure to send you updates while you’re away. I am available during weekends, as well as mornings, afternoons, and nights throughout the week. I can work with you to accommodate a schedule that works best! I am a kind pet sitter/walker who respects your animal's needs, as well as any directions and specifications required to watch your pet in your home. I have pet sat for many years during my life, and know that everyone has unique setups and requirements, so I pay good attention to what is needed to best fit you and your pet! My cat at home is very well loved and taken care of, maybe too loved haha! She complains because we hug her too much, she has a very good life though even with her gripes about hugging. We play with her multiple times a day and she is fed a healthy diet, her litter box is scooped at least once daily!
“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 😊”

Helena was great - consistent, reliable, got some play time in with my brave cat, and even got some scritches in with my terribly shy cat. I appreciate the daily photos and updates - much less stressful on the cats than being boarded, and less stressful on me knowing they're getting reliable, daily care and check ins.
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 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:

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.
