About: Growing up, my family fostered sick kittens and raised rats. Now, I love working with critters of all sorts, and I'd love to get to know yours. I offer a flat rate with no upcharge for additional animals or medical needs. As a PhD student, my schedule is especially flexible over the summer. I am usually in Sacramento a few days per week and Davis otherwise, but I'm happy to work with your schedule. With reliable wifi, I'm happy to work from your home to accommodate your pet's schedule. Availability for frequency of potty breaks/walks varies; just ask! On all visits, if anything seems off, I will check in right away--better safe than sorry.

“Marissa was absolutely amazing in watching my cats! Communicating with her was really easy, and she handled everything really well. Would definitely recommend and would book again!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for animals and have genuine love for every pet. My goal is to make sure all pets feel safe and comfortable. I have two dogs of my own, and I treat every pet I care for or come in contact with like they are part of my family. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine as I have two dogs of my own. I am used to feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for pets. I enjoy spending time with animals and would be happy to include pet sitting and walks in my weekly routine. I care for pets by following their owners instructions and keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. In a clients home, I respect their space and maintain the pets normal routine as much as possible. In my home and/or clients home I will make sure the pets have fresh water, food, exercise, playtime, rest time, and plenty of attention.
“Stephanie was so great with our kitties!! Very attentive and consistent with sending photos, asking questions, and made sure to check all items on the checklist while still setting aside play time with our babies 🙂 We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have experience caring for cats and I also have two cats of my own. I’m comfortable with feeding, changing water, cleaning litter boxes, playing with cats, and giving them lots of attention. I understand that every cat has a different personality, so I’m patient and will always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for cats. I’m available for drop in visits on most days and can work around my class schedule. I will carefully follow your instructions and respect your home and your cat’s routine. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of attention. I can also send photos and updates during every visit.

“Anjali took amazing care of my new kittens! She took great pictures and spent extra time playing with them. Also, she had to give them medicine which came up at the last minute, and I so appreciated her ability to take care of everything. Highly recommend!”
“She took amazing care of my sphynx, Noodle. I’m nervous about someone I don’t know watching him but I felt so comfortable and knew Noodle was in good hands. 100% will book again!!”
“Jazmine took great care of my cat last minute while I was away. She’s very responsive and communicates clearly and I appreciated the notes left when my cat hid from her the entire time so pictures weren’t an option. World definitely rebook Jazmine next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Susannah was great! She was flexible with our timing, communicative and so kinda! My cats were clearly comfortable with her and she checked in after each visit. I would highly recommend her!”
“Eva was friendly, creating the booking was easy as she is responsive and accommodated my times. My cat seemed to have enjoyed her stay and was walking around casually when I went to pick her up.”
“Holly is awesome! I was nervous leaving my guys behind because one of them is due for surgery very soon so there has been recent eating changes. It was crucial to have someone help me out with having Greysito eat. Holly was on top of it all for each visit! She sent sweet pictures of my guys playing, getting pets and simply being cute. I’m grateful to have her help me with them with feeding them, scooping the litter box and simply showing them love! I don’t travel often but Holly will be me go-to Rover sitter from now on! Thanks Holly!”
About: I have been a dog lover ever since I was young and I got my first dog when I was 7. I took care of him until he left me. I feel like all animals around me are my best friends. I also volunteered in a non governmental organization in the Philippines to help out with animals who are in need and needs love and attention. Interned in a pet clinic which taught me how to prepare their medicine and inject them in their IV lines If only I could adopt all those animals who need a home I would rush to any animal shelter and provide everything they need. I think that’s what makes me different from other sitters and walkers because in the future I want to be a veterinarian and save animals. It has been my dream to help these lovely creatures. I’m currently a full time veterinary assistant who works Monday to Friday. I have an hour lunch so if its close or they are staying with me, I can swing by and check in on them. During weekends, I am available. I provide a safe environment by dog/cat proofing my place. I am very particular about making sure they don’t get into absolutely anything. These pets are treated like my own. Under my watch, they are treated the best care they possibly can get.
About: I’ve grown up caring for animals my entire life. I have experience caring for dogs in the family home a cat during college, plus smaller pets too. I’m patient, reliable, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way. My routine is structured and consistent, which helps pets adjust easily. As a medical student, I’m organized with my time and make sure feeding, walks, and care all happen on schedule. I also spend a lot of time studying at home, so pets get plenty of attention in a calm, low-stress environment. I keep their routine as close to home as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I have a spacious, pet friendly home where dogs are allowed inside and treated like family. I provide a comfortable indoor space and daily playtime in the backyard for exercise and enrichment. I follow feeding schedules, give plenty of attention, and enjoy teaching basic tricks and reinforcing good behavior. I also keep pets active with walks, playtime, and fun outings like beach trips. My goal is to keep them happy, active, and comfortable in a home like environment.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Swingle
Ally was so great taking care of our senior cat. He needs medication and some extra care so having Ally give him the right attention was important to us. Ally gave us detailed updates and pictures throughout our vacation which helps us know our cat is well taken care of. Highly recommend Ally for any pet care.
Jessica and her daughters did a fantastic job taking care of my cats while I was away. She was reliable and communicative. She kept me updated and made sure everything kitties need were taken care of. My cats were happy and relaxed when I returned, which says a lot. I really appreciate their professionalism and kindness.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 592 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Swingle. 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.

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.
