“Jill was wonderful with our cat! She is everything that you expect from a pet sitter. She gave our cat the love that the owner cannot give while away from home and provided her the cares she needed. That’s all we wanted. Thank you, Jill!”
“Elena was wonderful. She was able to do several drop-in visits during Christmas break, on short notice. She was responsive, thorough, and gave my cats lots of love. Highly recommend!”
“Mahsa was very quick in responding to my last minute request while I was travelling and my cat seemed to have really warmed up to her even at first visit. She is professional and attentive to specific requests and is ofcourse great with cats. I highly recommend and will definitely reach out again if needed. Thank you!”
About: I absolutely love animals. I've grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have two cats at home. Previously experienced with caring for my senior dog who had CKD. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats of different sizes and temperaments as I'm currently working as a vet assistant and studying to be a registered veterinary technician. I recognize that every pet parent has their individualized way of caring for their pet and I strive to support that. Your furry kid means a lot and you should feel confident and comfortable with their care. I currently work 4 day weeks, 10 hours a day. I have three days throughout the week and nights after work that are available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting. I do my best to maintain a safe environment, staying aware of harmful materials, chemicals or products that a pet could get into. Removing or storing these items safely to avoid any negative exposure. Especially for young pets (and labs) that will eat anything.
“We are so grateful we chose Brianna as a pet sitter for our 3 cats! She took great care of them (even our young kitten) and eased our minds with many photos while we were gone. Our cats looked very happy and comfortable around her - even our shy one came out to greet her! We will definitely be booking with her again and we highly recommend her to everyone!”
“Luella took really good care of my two cats. Her visit notes were very detailed. She took extra care to look for the cats to make sure they were okay. She also went the extra step to clean up their messes. Her communication is excellent and I could tell she has a lot of love and affection for animals. I would book her again.”
About: As a proud parent of a 6-year-old Ragdoll, cats are a central part of my life. I routinely pet-sit for friends during their travels, which has given me extensive experience managing multi-cat households. I understand feline body language, respect their boundaries, and know how to handle everything from energetic play to managing separate feeding schedules and keeping litter boxes pristine. Whether your cat is a social butterfly or a shy kitty who needs time to warm up, they are in safe hands. For the pups, I am all about staying active! I am the go-to hiking and jogging buddy for my friend’s Golden Retriever, so I am well-versed in handling various breeds. My flexible work-from-home schedule blends seamlessly with pet care, allowing me to easily step away for reliable morning cat drop-ins or mid-day dog walks while giving your pets the consistent attention they need. As an outdoor enthusiast who loves hiking, tennis, and Pilates, I have the natural stamina and energy to match active breeds like Golden Retrievers, Doodles, or Corgis on the trails, yet I deeply cherish the quiet, grounding moments—whether that's practicing a workout with a kitty on the mat or providing patient companionship for a shy cat. Because I love to travel myself, I understand exactly how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why I am dedicated to providing the ultimate peace of mind with prompt communication and plenty of happy photo updates. When caring for your cats in the comfort of your own home, my top priority is maintaining their familiar routines to minimize any stress while you are away. I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring that everything from meticulous litter box scooping to pristine feeding areas is kept exactly as you like it. I know that cats are creatures of habit who feel safest in their own territory, so I tailor my visits entirely to their unique comfort levels—whether that means engaging an energetic breed with interactive toys, giving gentle chin scratches, or simply offering a quiet, reassuring presence nearby for more independent kitties. You can travel with absolute peace of mind knowing your home is secure and your cats are receiving dedicated, loving care, complete with detailed updates and plenty of photos after every single visit.
“Stephanie is very conscientious has taken good care of my lab for dat time drop ins and check ins with my cat while I was traveling. I know my pets are in good hands with Stephanie!”
“Zhi took excellent care my fur babies: Ryder and Ollie. Lots of daily updates with pics and videos. We felt completely at ease knowing our family babies were in good care. They had their own room and bathroom too! Plenty of toys and play boxes to occupy their time. Ollie and Ryder quickly acclimated and was playful and affectionate their entire stay. I highly recommend Zhi. Thank you very much Zhi and family for taking such wonderful care of our fur babies!”
“Highly recommend Shirley! She followed all instructions and went above and beyond taking care of our 2 cats. She noticed little details that would make them more comfortable during her visits like rotating their dry food so they always had fresh food on top and took the time to get to know each of them and what they enjoyed whether it be playing, brushing, or just sitting quietly with them. This was our cats' first time with Shirley and they quickly grew to love her and look forward to her daily visits!”
About: I am new to Rover but I have been pet sitting for friends and through word of mouth for the last five years! It is always a joy for me! I am currently working part time so I have a lot of time to help others with pet care. I can travel to you and I can stay over night. I am able to stay with your pet and keep them company over night or just for a visit. I’m used to caring for dogs and cats!
“Chenqi did a wonderful job taking care of Midas! She followed all of our instructions and sent us photos and videos during every visit, which we really appreciated. Our cat Midas is very shy and loves to hide, but Chenqi was always patient about finding her and making sure she was okay. One time Midas hid in a hard-to-reach space above our fridge and cabinets, and Chenqi patiently waited for her to come out and even helped block the area afterward so she wouldn’t get stuck there again. We really appreciated how thoughtful and attentive she was!”
About: Cats will always be my favorite, but I absolutely love animals! I have watched friend’s and family’s dogs and cats over the years, either dropping in, house sitting or bringing them home with me. Play time is always the best time! I can do it any day of the week as long as I am in town. All of my jobs are at will, so I am able to choose when I want to work which makes me very flexible! I just recently moved back to the bay area from Texas and I am ready to help with your fur babies. Unfortunately I do not have my own house anymore, I live with a friend so I am unable to accept boarding requests. I can definitely come check on your fur babies or house sit any time though!

About: I have lived and worked with pets for almost 20 years, caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I have experience with daily care, feeding routines, senior pets, and understanding different personalities. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and genuine love, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. If you want it more professional, more warm, or more playful, tell me the vibe and I’ll refine it I have a flexible schedule and am happy to discuss availability with you.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Union City
Han is super detailed oriented and took great care of Penfield and Dooby while we were away. She came before we left and took notes on the food, water and litter boxes preference for the two cats. While we were away, she came to take care of the cats, fill them with food and clean the little boxes with no dust outside. She also took a lot of photos and videos for our cats and reported any potential issues. I highly recommend Han as an amazing cat sitter!
Ayda was amazing with our cat, Jerry. He can be a little shy of strangers but took to her immediately. Ayda sent lots of pictures and detailed updates each day. You can tell that she’s really a cat lover and knows exactly how to take care of them and interact with them. I will definitely have her cat sit for us again!
Jennifer was amazing! She did just a few visits for a short business trip but I felt so confident and able to be fully present for work. Great communication and mature decision-making, and seemed to really enjoy taking care of my boys. I'm booking her for an upcoming vacation already. :)
We were so delighted by the support we got for our two bonded cats! We arrived home to happy cats + a space that was taken better care of than we do ourselves :). We had a longer booking and received lovely reports / photos that were a highlight everyday. I will absolutely book again and recommend to family and friends. Thanks again!
Jinhao was a pleasure to work with! He is very easy to communicate with and very responsive, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. He arrived right on time and it’s obvious he has a lot of experience and a genuine love for animals. My cat Sumo took to him almost immediately! Jinhao took care of all the essentials: feeding, fresh water, and scooping the litter, and also spent quality time playing with Sumo. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future.

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.

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.
