“Cat was great with my "Cat- Pete" I enjoyed the photos she sent me of him "Birdwatching". It really let me know he was having a vacation at her home, while we were on our vacation! I instantly felt her love for Pete the moment we arrived for our meet-up visit! I would recommend Cat to be your pet sitter too!”

About: I grew up on a farm and have always loved animals. I have taken care of different animals since I was a little girl. I have a lot of experience with large and small animals. I work full time but I am available in the evening as well as some mornings before work. I usually have open availability on the weekends. I have a beautiful cat currently, who is very spoiled at my house. We love being active outside and playing with toys at home. I am a very active person myself, which is why I enjoying walking dogs so much.

About: Taking care of dogs has always been a big part of my life since I was young. I grew up with both dogs and cats, but mostly dogs. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to provide patience, love, and reliable care. I try to treat every dog as if they were my own because that’s how I’d want mine to be treated. My family and I find comfort in taking in pets that have had a rough start because they deserve to feel cared for as well. This has allowed me to be able to experience a variety of fur babies with different personalities. I’m currently working part-time and going to school online full-time, so I’m home most of the time anyways. I usually work early mornings and am off before 3. My job is very flexible when it comes to scheduling, so I can work around dog-sitting if needed. When caring for pets in client’s homes I’ll make sure I abide by their rules and make sure their pets aren’t getting into places they shouldn’t. I’ll provide plenty of playtime if needed and build that sense of trust with each and everyone of ur fur babies!

About: 🐾💕 Hi, fellow pet parents! Welcome! 🐶🐱 I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud emergency veterinary professional who believes every fur baby deserves to be treated like family! I spend my workdays caring for pets in the ER, and there’s nothing I love more than giving them extra cuddles, comfort, and reassurance when they need it most. ❤️ When your pet stays with me, they’re not just “being watched”—they’re getting lots of love, attention, walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of spoiling! 🥰 My own pets are my family, and I’ll treat yours the exact same way. Because of my veterinary background, I’m also comfortable caring for pets with special needs and administering oral and injectable medications. If your pet has medications, treatments, or a special routine, just let me know! I’m happy to help keep them comfortable and on their normal schedule. 🩺🐾 At home, I have a sweet Shih Tzu and a small cat, so making sure everyone gets along is super important to me! I don’t accept pets with a history of biting or aggression. If you’re not sure how your pup feels about cats, no worries at all—we can set up a little meet-and-greet/playdate before booking to make sure everyone becomes besties! 🐶🐱💕 I work full-time Sunday–Wednesday, so my days off are dedicated to spending quality time with your pets. Whether that means a nice walk, a cozy cuddle session, some playtime, or simply hanging out together, I want your pet to feel happy, safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 🏡❤️ Your pets are your family—and I know how important that is. You can feel confident knowing your fur babies will be cared for with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs! 🐾✨ I can’t wait to meet your furry family! 🐶💕🐱 I currently work 10 hr shifts Sun-Wed! I take priority in making sure your pet gets the best care they deserve. I always make sure I have enough time to walk, play and love on them before my shifts! On my days I dedicate most of my day to your pets needs! My pets are my life and I always make sure they are happy and comfortable. Their safety is the most important and I make sure their environment is safe and comfortable at all times.

About: Hi, I’m a passionate pet sitter and walker with years of experience mostly interested in caring for small dogs and cats, like Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Shih Tzus, Yorkies, and papillons. For small dogs, I provide calm, one-on-one walks tailored to their pace, reading body language (lip licks, tucked tails) and using positive methods to build confidence and leash manners. For cats, I handle play sessions, enrichment, litter care, meds, and cuddles to keep them stress-free and happy. Clients love my detailed photo updates, punctuality, and family-like care. If you need expert care for your small dog or cat, let’s connect! I’m working part time and have a cat of my own! I’m also in school for nursing! I have lots of free time on Sundays and Mondays! Whether you’re going away for the weekend or need some help while you’re working! I workout and go for lots of runs! Itll be easy for me to keep up with the animals and help them get their energy out! I also don’t mind relaxing with them and helping them manage any anxiety they may have.

“Alison was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! From our initial meet-and-greet, I could immediately tell she was kind, patient, and genuinely loves animals. As a dog mom, that’s incredibly important to me, and she made me feel completely at ease. During her visit, she took Bentley on a nice walk, spent quality time with him, gave him lots of affection, and followed all of my care instructions perfectly. I could tell she treated him with the same love and attention he’s used to receiving, which meant so much to me. She also kept me updated throughout the visit, and I came home to a happy, relaxed pup. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Alison again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet as if they were their own.”

About: I provide dependable, attentive care for both dogs and cats, with a focus on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. 🐾 I have experience with dog walking, playtime, feeding, bathing, and general care, as well as cat feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of cuddles when welcomed. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely and care for them the way you would. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, a relaxing walk, quiet companionship, or a professional biscuit-making audience, they’ll receive patient, reliable, and loving care. 🐶🐱💕 I take scheduling and your pet’s routine seriously, and I always do my best to provide dependable, consistent care. 🐾 I work part-time most weekday mornings, but I’m available Tuesday and Thursday mornings and have flexible availability throughout the rest of the week. I’m also very flexible on weekends and holidays. For boarding, I’m happy to coordinate dates and times in advance so everything is clear and organized. You can count on me to communicate openly, arrive as scheduled, and make your pet’s care a priority. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I make sure pets have access to fresh water, are fed properly and on schedule, and are kept in a clean, comfortable environment. I also have experience with crate training and understand the importance of using crates safely and positively. I closely follow each pet parent’s instructions and routines so your furry family member feels secure, cared for, and at home while they’re with me.

We had a wonderful experience with our cat sitter! She took such great care of our cats and was very caring, gentle, and attentive to them. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their comfort and well-being. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care while we were away. She kept us updated and took care of everything so well. We would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her take care of our cats again.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Ventura

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Ventura is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 941 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ventura. 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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 , 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.
