Alondra provided excellent updates while cat sitting for us. Not only was she very communicative, she also left the house better than she found it. Would 100% recommend her for cat sitting and hope to work with her again!

Jenn was super friendly, responsive, and easy to work with! We had left a couple of things unclear about our pet's care (sorry about that, Jenn) but she was awesome and reached out to us for clarification to make sure that our cat Charlie was well taken care of while we're away. Would recommend!

Diane always delivers! She takes good care and checks up the doggos to make sure they’re ok. She even noticed the rash one of the girls had, so it’s nice that she’s attentive and observant! We’re a repeat client!

About: I have always had a dog in my life. Giant breeds mostly, but all kinds tug at my heart. I wasn’t blessed with children so I pour out all that maternal love on my animals. I cook a lot for our Cane Corso-veggies, ground turkey, even scrambled eggs, and he loves it. I have been called a “dog whisperer” by some who witness my interactions with furry friends. I retired early so I have been home with our Cane Corso since he was 9 mos old. I believe the attention and love we have showered on our pup has allowed him to be both loving and obedient. He has never shown aggression to other dogs and he is liked by many other pet owners we have met over the last 5 years. I am physically fit and able to care for any size dog, and feel confident in caring for our vulnerable family members. Since I am home, I would be able to visit your pup or walk him/her while you’re at work. Dogs definitely get lonely so having company can be a game-changer in their behavior and life span. I am used to talking to pets, as I believe our tone of voice gives them security and builds trust. I would not only talk to your pet(s) in a loving way, but also pet them and play with them, as well as walk them. For our dog, I am adamant about fresh water in his bowl several times a day, and gets fed at regular times (he gets 4 small meals/day!) He has been in our front yard since he was 4 mos old so he gets to lounge on the grass without disturbing the neighbors. It has been a great way to acclimate him to people, big and small. If that is something you would like to try (with supervision) I am all for it.

About: First-time bookings on Rover can get a $20 discount! Use my code kaitlt22451 for additional savings, even if you don't book with me 🌟 Pet Veteran 🐾 I've been on Rover since 2024 and have cared for pets of family and friends long before I joined Rover. I am particularly experienced in caring for and training senior dogs. I understand the need to prepare special meals for dietary needs and catering playtime to a dog's health and interests. Administering oral medicine is no biggie for me, as long as I'm made aware of how they usually prefer to take their meds! If the dog is able to, I love taking them out for walks and playing games to keep their mind and body stimulated. There is nothing better than loving our furry family members who always give us unconditional love! I also have experience caring for cats and knowing the importance of respecting their space and letting them come to me when they're comfortable! I love playing with cats or even just watching them sunbathe in the most random parts of a home. I am open to caring for all types of animals (I've had to watch hamsters in addition to dogs before), so your pet will always be showered with love! Prior to Booking 🗓️ I will always ask to schedule a meet & greet to ensure your pet is comfortable with me. During this meet & greet, I'd love to know more about your pet's daily routine, a tour of your home, and any other housekeeping notes I should know during the stay. The meet & greet is to see if we're a good fit and make sure we're both comfortable proceeding with the booking. I always ask my clients to type up a document with pet care instructions and any notes about the home to ensure things run as smoothly as possible. If your pet requires constant supervision due to separation anxiety or behavior that requires special attention (aggressive behavior, chews on personal items, constantly barks throughout the day, always pulls on the leash, not potty trained, has a habit of biting or scratching unprovoked), an additional flat fee of $20 will be added to reflect the additional care that they'll require. What to Expect 💭 Multiple photo updates during the day! I always send photos before they're requested. You'll see what your pets are up to, whether there are any issues going on that you need to know, or just silly moments of them that I happened to capture. It'll be like you never left them. Many walks (around 2-3 times a day), cuddles, treats (as allowed), and toys to keep your pet entertained during the day! Your home will be respected and kept in a clean condition. I understand the anxiety of having someone else in your home, so I'll always respect boundaries about rooms to leave untouched, taking out the garbage, bringing in mail, and washing any dishes that may be used. I also try to clean your pet's food and water bowls daily to ensure their health and safety! I will often put any used towels or bedsheets in one place or pre-loaded into the washing machine so that you're aware of what was used. I am available during the entire week, including weekends, so I plan my day around your pet's schedule for quality feeding time, play time, and cuddles! I typically spend most of the day with your pet, stepping out to run errands as necessary. To respect my time, if you require more than one meet & greet, they will be $15 for 30 minutes each. The first meet & greet is free! I always keep track of where the pet is in the home and maintain a watchful eye of what they’re eating, playing with, or exploring. Since I have a senior dog of my own, I understand the need to react quickly to any alarming noises or behavior and am able to think on my feet to address concerns while also keeping you in the loop! I am also quick to notice when play time is getting too intense and a fight might break out so I know when to step in and distract pets to help de-escalate the situation.

About: I’ve had both small and large dogs and I haven’t met an animal that doesn’t like me. I also have plenty of experience with cats and love both equally ❤️ I will spend as much time as needed with your furry friends when possible, giving them the attention they require and deserve. This can include drop in visits or spending the whole day with them ❤️ My yard is fenced in and I have never had an issue with any of my pets or any visiting pets getting out. I am always vigilant with animals and will make sure everyone is safe and sound.

About: I have taken care of my own pets since I was 10. I have also shown dogs the basic commands of sit, wait, jump paired with hand gestures. I have 3 dogs of my own that I care for as well as a cat. I have fostered kittens and found them good homes as well as cared for an stray, injured kitten. I am a university alumni, currently unemployed but do volunteer work. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies. I am available to do drop ins to play with your pet and taken them out on potty breaks as well as take them on walks. I am available to care for your pets any day. I can care for your pets by doing drop ins to engage in play time/have potty breaks and taking them out for their walks to release energy and promote a healthy lifestyle. I have a crate in my home and pet supplies (dog wipes, food, etc) to use if necessary.

This was our first time having a sitter care for our two cats at home for a full ten days, so we were honestly a bit nervous at first. But Kelun took such wonderful care of them and really put our minds at ease. She followed all instructions carefully, kept everything clean and tidy, and most importantly gave them lots of attention and love. She also sent many photos and updates, which meant so much to us while we were away. You can truly tell she cares about animals and is incredibly responsible. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

About: From my childhood there has never been a time in my life I didn’t have pets around and much to my parents chagrin at times I was always bringing home strays that I found. As a result, I’ve learned to love and care for their needs from an early age. Growing up I helped deliver our own dogs puppies on several occasions. As an adult I’ve always either had my own pets or lived with roommates that had pets. I have done house/pet sitting for friends and family for years. I have 1 year experience as a veterinary technician assistant, and have taken some veterinary technician assistant classes. Animals are truly my passion in life and there is not much that makes me happier in life than spending time playing, training, walking, feeding, and caring for their every need. I work full time as a veterinary technician assistant. I am available for house/pet sitting for a couple of days or weeks. Whatever your needs require. I can do drop in visits in the evenings though with my work schedule daytime visits have proven difficult. For multiple reasons, I prefer to care for your pets in your home. First and foremost, I find more often than not, pets are most comfortable in their own familiar environment and feel less disruption in their routine. Secondly, I live with roommates who have 3 dogs and a cat, and while they are all great pets, I just feel it’s unfair to them and any incoming pets to be forced to have to adjust to so many strangers. Especially the incoming pets when they may already be stressed about their people being gone. I just try to make it as easy and calming and stress free for the pets as possible.

About: I provide active, attentive, and structured care for both dogs and cats, with a focus on exercise, comfort, and individualized attention. For dogs, I’m especially a great fit for higher-energy pets that need more activity and engagement. I provide: • 3 daily walks (typically 20 mins to 1 hour each depending on energy level and needs) • A large fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise • Plenty of interaction, playtime, and supervision throughout the day I also have extensive experience caring for cats and have raised 5+ cats over the years. For cats that prefer quieter environments or separation from dogs, I have a dedicated empty bedroom available to help them feel safe and relaxed. Additional care I can provide includes: • Brushing and de-shedding • Nail trimming • Basic dental cleaning (if tolerated) • Frequent updates with photos/videos I focus on quality care and take a limited number of pets so I can give each one more attention and a calmer experience. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, or evening visits. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust to your cat’s routine to ensure consistency and comfort. I prioritize reliability and will make sure your cat is cared for on time every visit, whether it’s daily check-ins or extended care. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment and always follow your care instructions closely. I understand that cats can be sensitive to changes, so I focus on minimizing stress and maintaining their normal routine. I’m experienced with handling cats gently, including grooming (brushing, nail trimming, and basic hygiene if your cat allows). I pay close attention to their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I will keep you updated with photos and notes after each visit. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities.

Caroline was so easy to communicate with throughout, helping set my mind at ease that my three cats were getting the care I had hoped for. She provided a lovely little summary and photos each day, allowing me to get a glimpse of how my furbabies were doing. She regularly administered medication to my one cat who has a digestive issues. She kept me updated when she vomited (an occasional issue) and cleaned it up. She followed my requests around opening a few windows during her visits, refilling a humidifier regularly for my one cat’s asthma or plugging in the AC the night before a hot day. I appreciated knowing my cats had such a reliable caring person to check in on them, play with them, give them the attention they wanted, and provide food and water. I would absolutely have Caroline care for my cats again!

Dawn was amazing at taking care of our cats! We were on a vacation for over a week and Dawn came in everyday to check on the cats, feed them and play with them. She made sure that our cats were not stressed at all. She used to send us a lot of pictures everyday, so we missed our babies a little less. I loved that she was very communicative. She texted everyday with details of how cats were doing. She is very experienced with automatic feeders and litter bots. Having Dawn made our vacation stress free.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Sunnyvale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Sunnyvale on Rover is $32.19 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 3,812 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sunnyvale. 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 Sunnyvale. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
