About: I live in the Sacramento Delta in a quiet neighborhood. Great neighborhood for walks and a nice fenced corner lot yard for your pup to run around in. I live with my elderly father who enjoys meeting new doggy friends. 24 hr supervision since I work remotely! I’m an early riser and enjoy morning walks. Your doggy will recieve a good amount of outdoor time and have an active and stimulating day. I’m comfortable with your dog sleeping in bed with me but respect if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. I work remotely so I have no issue staying at your house as well!

Nikole B is the BEST! My cats, Comet and Tigee love her. I highly recommend you book her to care for your pets. One of my cats needs medications, and Nikole had no problems giving it to her. Book with confidence!

About: Hi, there, thanks for taking a minute to consider me for your pet care! I have lots of experience working with cats and dogs absolutely adore them! I have worked at a dog and cat kennel for years caring for dogs of every size, age and breed, including cuddling, walking, feeding, health checks, and more! I have a cat of my own now that I adopted, and have had a King Charles Cavalier and a Lab. Ready to give loving care and attention and a fun time to your dog or cat. I work part-time in my own business, so I am available most days of the week, with reasonable notice. I am happy to stay at your home on the weekends or drop by for services including feeding, walking, health checks, etc., as needed. I have a wonderful adopted stray cat, but I would not be bringing him to your home. I will adhere strictly to the routines and environment you have set up in your home, and will respect all of your house rules and instructions for your pet's care.

I prioritize regular playtime, mental stimulation, and lots of affection to keep them happy and healthy.

About: I have had a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for them. I grew up with dogs and have been around them my entire life, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and needs. I also had a cat for many years, giving me experience with feline care as well. In addition to caring for my own pets, I dog sit for friends and have helped take care of my grandparents’ dogs. Through these experiences, I’ve become reliable with walks, playtime, meal routines, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I enjoy caring for animals and treat every pet as if it were my own. Use this link for $20 off your first booking with Rover! https://www.rover.com/sit/ashlim30259 Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently job searching so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate to each pet’s needs. This allows me to give pets consistent attention with walks, playtime, feedings, and company throughout the day. I am able to adapt to every pets’ different routines so it’s close to the schedule they’re used to. I live in a very safe neighborhood and close to a dog park as well. I would walk my dogs and take them to play at the parks often. I understand how crucial safety is when it comes to pets, especially in the care of someone other than their owners. I would take the upmost responsibility to make sure your fur babies are safe and loved.

About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).

About: I have been a pet owner since I entered the world. Most of my experience is with dogs, but I do have two cats. As of now, most of my pet-sitting jobs have been for close family friends. I am just starting on my Rover journey. I am a college student who is looking to help pay for my college expenses. I'm only offering Friday-Sunday right now since I will be working during the week and don't have a flexible schedule. On the weekends, your dogs will have my full attention :) I do not provide care in my own home. I will work with you to ensure that your pet feels safe with me while I am in their space.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Thornton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Thornton on Rover is $35.52 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 1,825 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Thornton. 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 Thornton. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
