About: Since I was a little girl, I have always had a ♥ for animals. I've cared for dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, ducks, chickens, rabbits, and a mini pig. A plus for me is that I have been a foster for Animal Rescue of Tracy for 10+ years now, so I have experience with all sorts of dogs and cats, from those who need special medication to rambunctious dogs to newborn kittens. There is no animal you can give me that I will not love, pet, cuddle, and care for. 🌷 I am a responsible 25 year old who has been caring for animals my whole life. This is my first Rover account, but I have been pet sitting in the Tracy community for 10 years. I live on 1.5 acres with 25 + animals, so I am very experienced and would love to help out with your furry friends! :) I'm currently working part-time with the majority of my work being remote so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! 🏡 I live on 1.5 acres of property so your dogs will have plenty of space to run around, play, and relieve themselves. Depending on your dog's friendliness, they can remain inside with my two small dogs, or I can keep them in our supervised dog run area just for them. If you have cats, they will be contained in their own area in my house so that they do not run and hide, as new environments tend to cause anxiety. 🏠 If house sitting, I make the animals feel as comfortable as possible to ease any stress of their owners being away. Pets & play are always guaranteed. I also send pictures everyday & when asked! ⭐ My routine is simple: follow your directions on feeding, walking, medication if needed, and I will handle the other most important part: giving them lots of love!
“I haven’t had a pet sitter willing to take care of and care for Charlie like Dulce. He is difficult and closed, and she cared for him just the same. She texted me with questions and suggestions during the stay that showed the level of care she gives.”

“I highly recommend Jasmine for drop-in visits! She watched my three indoor cats and was incredibly punctual and reliable. I have specific routines for my cats, and Jasmine followed every instruction to the letter. Her communication was transparent and clear, providing great updates that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

About: As the owner of a happy, well trained 3 year old dog, I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and proper training. My dog is walked every day, and I’ve worked with professional trainers at PetSmart to teach good manners and obedience. This hands on experience has given me the skills to provide dependable, safe, and loving care for your dog while you’re away. I’m currently working as a contract employee, which gives me a flexible schedule. This summer because of the heat I am available from 6am-8am and 6:30pm-7:30pm In my home, pets are treated like family they get regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, and a safe, comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely feeding, walking, and giving any medications as directed while also keeping their space tidy and secure. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and cared for, whether they’re with me or staying in their own home.

About: I have spent a lot of time pet sitting family dogs, including powerful breeds like Pitbulls, Belgian Malinois, and German Shepherds. This hands-on experience taught me exactly how important structure and leash training are for a safe environment. Being a shorter person, I prefer to specialize in walking small dogs, medium dogs, or larger dogs who are already trained on the leash and calm when seeing others. Although I do have experience walking dogs who pull or get too excited, I want to ensure safety for your pet, myself, and others around me. However, if your larger pup is still working on their leash manners, I am more than happy to care for them entirely at home, focusing on indoor playtime, backyard fun, and tons of love! I am also a cat mom of 4 and love all types of cats. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I am able to offer open availability for your pets. Whether your pup or kitten needs morning or midday walks, a last-minute check-in, or your pet requires strict, timely medication schedules, I am around to help. My open routine means I can prioritize your pet's usual schedule without any rush. When I am in your home, safety and respect for your space are my priorities. I treat your home with care, ensuring doors are securely locked, gates are latched, and your home is left exactly as I found it. I can follow strict instructions to ensure that your pet’s needs are met. I also love sending quick photo updates with every visit, so you have total peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My home is also equipped to handle pets safely and comfortably. I have a completely fenced backyard for secure outdoor playtime and bathroom breaks. To ensure everyone's safety, I also have a dedicated den space, allowing me to keep guest pets entirely separate from my four cats whenever needed. This setup ensures a stress free environment for both your pet and my own.
About: With a lifetime of pet ownership under my belt, I am confident caring for animals of every shape and size. I bring specialized experience to the table, including bottle-feeding and raising 4-week-old kittens, handling large breeds like Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and caring for pocket pets. I absolutely love sitting energetic puppies and know exactly how to keep them safe, engaged, and well-behaved. Your pets will receive the same level of love and meticulous attention that I give my own! Because I manage a flexible part-time schedule, pet care is a seamless and primary focus of my day. I structure my time to guarantee that the animals in my care receive consistent attention, timely feedings, and plenty of active play sessions. Whether it is adjusting to a puppy's strict bathroom schedule or accommodating evening check-ins, my routine allows me to be highly reliable and attentive to your pet's specific daily needs. Safety and peace of mind are my highest priorities when caring for any animal. I maintain a highly attentive, supervised environment to ensure all pets stay safe and secure during playtime and transitions. I am fully prepared to follow your specific household rules, crate-training preferences, or strictly separated feeding routines to prevent stress. Whether tracking strict schedules or securing the space, I treat every home and pet with the utmost vigilance and respect.
“Maxi is a wonderful sitter. She is professional and caring. She treats your pets with love and care. Maci is also a great communicator if she has any questions or concerns she notifies you immediately. I would not hesitate to rebook Maci again for my fur baby. 10/10!!”

I always take extra care and caution to ensure safety of all animals in my care. I am currently a stay-at-home mom and spend most of my day caring for my own animals while my children are at school. I find myself having time in the day, primarily weekdays, where I can spend time assisting others in caring for their animals. My schedule during the week is fairly flexible to help meet the needs of my clients. Safety is my #1 priority. When I am caring for you animals, I ensure gates are locked, animals are secure, and food and water is accessible as needed. I have several habits to ensure I am following all instructions to include checklists and snapping photos of locked gates for ease of mind for myself and my clients.

“Sarah and her family are incredible with animals and the love and care that they provide is exactly what any animal parent would hope for if you have to be away from your pets. We are so grateful for them and can feel at ease knowing our two spoiled Pities are in such good hands while under their care. Both our pups loved Sarah’s son Logan instantly as well! He truly shows such a love for animals and is very experience with reading their behavior and mannerisms. We will absolutely continue to book them for future sittings and highly recommend for all other animal parents out there!”

“Alexus was so great. I was so nervous about leaving my babies in someone else's care but alexus was amazing. She did everything exactly how I asked. They were very comfortable with her. She kept me up to date on everything that was going on and her prices are reasonable. I am so grateful for her and I will most definitely be using her services for them again.”


“Gabriela was very attentive to my dogs. Made me feel much better that they were still getting attention each day and they were not losing out on anything. I will definitely be using her in the future for trips and she was very responsive and followed all directions as requested. She was a pleasure to meet before the trip and have the dogs meet her and she was happy to get down on their level and help them to get to know her and they got more and more comfortable as the days progressed. Thank you so much Gabriela we appreciate you so very much!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 579 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Vernalis. 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.

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.
