“I highly recommend Jo to watch your animals! She is patient, considerate, and takes initiative with not only our babies, but also our home. Our Chiweenie takes time to get used to new people but snuggled up with Jo quickly. Jo communicates well and made me feel at ease knowing our dogs were under her care. I will not hesitate to reach out to Jo in the future!”

“Yun-an (Elva) is really the best sitter we know and is our savior! We had originally planned to have her drop by only a few times when we were away but the night before our trip (literally while I was packing), one of our cats had an emergency. The doctor subscribed him medication to be taken twice a day. I was ready to cancel the trip if I couldn’t find someone to take care of him. Luckily, not only did Elva agree last minute to come two times a day, but she really went above and beyond the expectations during her visits. She is extremely detailed oriented and kept me updated about everything. Our cat is really but Elva did a great job of making him feel comfortable and making sure that he ate before giving him the medicine. Her rover cards had dozens of photos and long descriptions of what each of my fur babies did during her visits. She is such a patient and loving care taker, and I can tell both of my cats trust her. Having Elva come by made me feel at ease during my trip, because I know there is someone who would take very good care of my cats. I feel so, so lucky to have found her. Highly highly recommended!”

“Kate is truly amazing! I feel so anxious every time I leave my cats, and Kate relieved every bit of stress and anxiety I had. She is so kind, patient, and gentle. She shared detailed updates and sweet pictures after each check in. My cats can really be stand offish to strangers, but they warmed up to Kate instantly. So thankful for her! 🐱💜”

“Rachel was a huge help when we needed to go on a trip and leave our cat at home. Our little geriatric furball is 18 years old and needs special treatment and medication. Rachel was already experienced in piling cats and handled it perfectly. She was reliable, communicative, and very caring. We hope not to need to leave her home again but would definitely book Rachel again if we ever need to.”

About: Animals have always been my best friend. My entire life I’ve been surrounded by animals, having 2-3 dogs & a cat at all times. I’ve been through the month old puppy stages & the rough old times. Dealt with tantrums and accidents, and loved them still all through it. I have been dog-sitting since I was 16 and still do to this day! Sleeping with them so they don’t get too lonely at night, checking in multiple times daily to feed, give water, play, cuddle, and take on walks. Currently, and for the past year, I walk 2 dogs together, every morning. There’s no job too big for me! I am very flexible and available during the days, week and weekends. I currently walk dogs from 10-11:30am, and the rest of the day and night I am free for however many check ins your doggo needs and for sleepovers! I have been housesitting with and without dogs for many years, so I am well prepared and comfortable with new environments and how to accommodate your household to your liking! I’m used to notes & or instructions on exactly how you wish for my stay to go, no needs are too big or small! I stick to common areas and outside, wherever your canine loves to roam.

About: I am gentle and laid back, a bit like a cat myself, so I naturally respect your cat’s space and let them come to me at their own pace :) I have cared for a friend’s cat several times, including feeding, cleaning the litter box, playing, and giving lots of attention. I also have two kittens of my own at home, so I know how much cats value a steady routine. I have spent time with stray cats too, which taught me to be patient and let shy cats come to me at their own pace. When I visit, I follow your cat’s usual routine and food schedule. I send photos and short updates so you can relax while you are away. I am happy to do a Meet & Greet first so your cat can get used to me! I speak English and Japanese. I am available most days, including weekends and holidays, with a flexible schedule. I can visit from about 9 AM through the evening. Please contact me at least 2 days in advance so I can plan your cat’s visits properly. I provide drop-in care at your home, so your cat can stay in the place they know best. Before the first visit, I would love to do a Meet & Greet to learn your cat’s routine, favorite spots, and any special needs. During visits, I follow your care instructions, keep doors and windows closed so your cat stays safe, and handle your cat gently at their own pace. I wash my hands before and after each visit, and I send photos and short updates so you always know how your cat is doing. I also treat your home and keys with care and respect.

About: Having owned and cared for dogs and cats my whole life—including years of pet-sitting—I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet my full attention whenever you need support. Whether you need dog walking, drop-in visits, or in-home pet sitting, your pet will enjoy attentive, personalized care with the perfect mix of play, walks, and dedicated attention. I primarily work remotely from home with a highly flexible routine, allowing me to focus on your pet throughout the entire day. Because I am on-site continuously, I can provide frequent potty breaks, steady companionship, play breaks, and quick neighborhood walks. I easily adapt to your dog’s specific feeding and exercise schedule without leaving them unattended. Safety and peace of mind are my highest priorities. When pets are in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and fully pet-proofed space equipped with comfortable resting areas and secure environments. For care hosted in your home, I strictly follow your established routines, care instructions, and safety boundaries. Regardless of location, I ensure all doors and windows remain secure and double-check all leashes and gear before heading outside.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have spent my whole life caring for dogs and cats! I currently have two dogs, two chickens, and eight cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and pet care needs. I’ve also been dog walking for the past year, gaining hands-on experience caring for other people’s pets. My background in childcare has taught me patience, responsibility, and attentiveness, which I bring into caring for animals as well. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I always strive to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! I’m currently a college student, and my classes only take up about an hour each weekday morning, leaving me with plenty of flexibility throughout the day! Outside of school, I love staying active, going on walks, and spending time at home. Because of this, incorporating pet care into my daily routine feels like a perfect fit! Whether it’s taking your dog on a walk, stopping by for a visit, or spending quality time with your pet at home, I have the time and flexibility to give them plenty of attention and care. I live alone in an apartment in the heart of downtown Campbell, with access to a fully fenced front and backyard that are private and only accessible to me. Although I have pets of my own, they live at my family home, so any animals staying with me will have a comfortable space without other pets around! I’m also just a five-minute walk from Los Gatos Creek Trail and close to several local parks, making it easy to incorporate walks and outdoor time into our daily routine. My biggest priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining the routines they’re used to at home. Whether your pet is crate-trained, prefers to free roam, or has specific dietary or medical needs, I’m happy to accommodate their individual requirements and follow your instructions closely. I plan to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care, working around my school schedule and their needs. I’m also more than happy to provide photos and updates throughout their stay so you can feel confident that your furry friend is in good hands! For house sitting and drop-in visits, I bring that same level of attention and respect to your home, making sure your pet’s normal routine is maintained as closely as possible.

About: I used to volunteer at the San Jose Animal Center and the Wildlife Center of Silicon Valley I worked at an animal hospital for a year as a veterinary assistant I trained my one-year-old kitten to wait, sit, shake, turn around, and high-five, as well as my friend's puppy. I just graduated from college and moved back home during my gap year before I start veterinary school. I have time every day to pet sit. I have a large backyard that dogs can play in and an area for a crate if needed. I will make sure that your pet feels safe and loved at either my house or yours. I will follow the instructions left for me very carefully. Your pet will get lots of snuggles and playtime. I plan to give them the best care possible while respecting their boundaries.

She was kind, thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cared so much about making sure they felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were gone. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. We came home to two very happy kittens, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I have an 85 lb bully mix named Luca. I have a soft spot for pitties and senior pups. My dog prior to Luca was reactive, so have experience working with reactive pups and older pets. I work full time M-F, so am mostly available on the weekends. I am open to walking dogs, doing drop ins, and taking care of cats. I work full time during the week, so my main availability is on the weekends or possibly an evening if I know ahead of time. If you leave instructions for me I can keep your pet in its preferred spot. Feeding instructions are also appreciated if they need food. Any allergies or triggers for pets would also be good to know.

About: I've grown up with dogs since I was a child and have been a pet caregiver for over 26 years - from simple visits to walks to house-sitting. I have a natural bond with animals and promise to provide a loving environment under my care. I've cared for young ones and seniors, have administered medications, have been on the occasional vet visits when necessary and am no stranger to lots of play & engagement. I'd love nothing more than to take the best care of your beloved, furry family members! I've recently been laid off and am currently seeking full-time employment. Apart from personal productivity, job searching, already scheduled appointments, etc., I can be somewhat flexible. I prefer to have no more than 2 visits/walks each day, so that I can accommodate my other needs. I won't be caring for pets in my home. When it comes to the client's home, I pay attention to what each client prefers and what is most important to them to feel that I'm a trustworthy & quality caregiver. I pay close attention to pet signals, personalities and patterns, and am very communicative with my clients. I stick to the routines as instructed, and pivot/ask for consent when I see that an animal has a need that was not discussed.

Teresa did an excellent job of taking care of and winning over my scaredy-cat, Aggie! Teresa sent updates and lots of beautiful pictures of Aggie. She brought in mail and packages, as well as handling the garbage/recycling bins in and out to the curb. Finally, when her schedule was booked up for upcoming Thanksgiving time, she recommended some other River pet sitters. I really appreciate how kind, professional and considerate Teresa has proved to be. 🐱

Nicole was wonderful with our Hoppy! She was very responsive in all communications, always on time, and we felt completely comfortable leaving our cat in her care. Hoppy is usually very shy and doesn’t trust people easily, but she warmed up to Nicole from the very first day. Her updates and photos were so helpful and reassuring that Hoppy has been taken care of while we were away. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Vasona Junction

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Vasona Junction is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $44 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,046 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Vasona Junction. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vasona Junction. On Rover:

  • 79% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
