“Kathy was so good with our cats! One of our cats can be a little grumpy towards new sitters and within a few days he was letting her pet him. Thank you so much, we will definitely be rehiring Kathy to sit for us in the future.”

“This was my first time using rover, & as a first time pet owner. Maci was great setting up a meet & greet and asked questions I didn’t even consider. Lyra is shy with new people, but warmed up to Maci pretty quickly. Her updates were detailed & really gave me peace of mind that my girl was doing well while I was away. 10/10 recommend & will be booking with her again!!”

About: Hi there! I’m Danielle 👋I’ve taken care of dogs from chihauhas and schnauzers all the way up to German Shepards and Huskies since I high school. I’ve done a few week+ dog stays through TrustedHousesitters looking after pups while their owners enjoyed their vacation stress free and full of pictures. Everything from feeding, walking, picking up after them and lots of behind the ear scratches. I believe it’s a pleasure to be a part of your dog’s day and would love to help make your life a little easier! I work from home and normally have meeting after lunch time but am pretty flexible since most I can do from my phone. My free times are the mornings, afternoon and some evenings. Along with weekends. Taking care of dogs from daily walks, threw around the ball. Gave them chicken treats and tons of love/pets! I strive to give them the love and care you do everyday for them so they leave nourished and well- loved.

About: I’ve taken care of puppies, kittens dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors friends and family have relied on me to check in, feed and play with their pets. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and or cats. I am available to care for your pet or pets on weekends, weekdays and holidays. I cannot currently board animals at my home due to various reasons. I will be sure to offer that if I can in the future. Thank you.

“Jasmine was absolutely wonderful! She took care of our three indoor cats for over a week, and we couldn't have asked for better care. She is extremely friendly, a great communicator, and kept us completely at ease while we were away. Jasmine made sure everyone was fed on schedule, spent quality time playing with them every single day, and went above and beyond to keep them happy and healthy. On top of taking fantastic care of our fur babies, she made sure our house stayed completely secure, giving us total peace of mind the entire trip. We will definitely be booking Jasmine again and highly recommend her!”

“Dulce did such an amazing job taking care of our kitties while we were away. She updated us with so much detail at every check in and sent us photos as well. She communicated with us and even went above and beyond for us when we had an unwelcome raccoon visitor trying to steal food. If services are ever needed again we will rebook her!”

About: Dogs and cats have been a part of my whole life! Having just moved to California from New Hampshire, I wanted to give Rover a try to meet people, meet some furry friends, and get some exercise in. I have worked previously in animal shelters and fully believe that animals all deserve to be loved and cared for, no matter what. I have experience with selective dogs as well. I’m very accommodating to whatever you and your fur babies need to be safe and comfortable! * I’m available Monday through Friday between the hours of 7am to 4pm * Rover is my full-time job so I’m very flexible * Holidays may vary Owning a reactive dog myself, I understand how important precarious measures are! I will do whatever is needed to ensure the best care for your fur babies! Whether it be a walk, play time in a fenced area, or a couch cuddle to give them some company!

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!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities and truly love spending time with animals. I’m a patient, dependable, and attentive caregiver who treats every pet like family. My dogs have always been a huge part of my life, including my sweet RayRay, who taught me so much about patience, love, and the special bond we share with our pets. I recently adopted my French Bulldog, Ichabod (“Iggy”), and I’m continuing to learn and understand each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), or lots of love and attention, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I love being able to include pets in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around making sure they get the care, attention, and love they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or just keeping them company, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Creating a safe and comfortable space for pets is very important to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I pay attention to the little things — their habits, boundaries, and what helps them feel relaxed. In my home or yours, I’ll treat your pet and your space with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years and have experience with both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow their individual routines. Whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply some company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I am a fourth grade teacher so my schedule for work is 7:00am-3:00pm. I am available after work for daily walks. If you need a house sitter I would be away for those hours. I love to play with pets and take them on walks around the neighborhood. I also love to snuggle if they’re up for it! I love seeing animals different personalities.

About: What sets me apart is my background in healthcare combined with real, hands-on experience owning a high-energy dog. As a nurse, I’m detail-oriented, dependable, and calm in any situation. I’m trained to monitor behavior, administer medications if needed, and recognize subtle changes in health or mood—skills that translate directly to exceptional pet care. I currently work as a nurse, but I have Wednesdays and weekends completely available for pet care. I’m available for overnight stays as needed, as well as evening drop-in visits throughout the week. My flexible availability allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and maintain their normal routine while you’re away. Whether you need someone for a quick evening check-in, a full day of care, or overnight companionship, I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual needs and schedule. I provide structured, attentive care tailored to each pet, whether in my home or yours. My home includes a fully fenced yard, plenty of supervised play, a kennel for crate-trained dogs, and one very friendly, neutered dog. Safety, cleanliness, and positive interactions are always a priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medications, to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. (For cats I will only do care in your home to ensure safety of your cat as my dog has not been around cats)

About: Hello my name is Shondra and I absolutely love dogs. as a retiree, I'm home most of the time, so your pup will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day-they'll never be left alone for long periods. I've had dogs my entire life and have experience training German Shorthaired Pointers as hunting dogs. Although I no longer hunt, the knowledge, patience, and dedication I gained from training them helps me provide excellent care for every dog I meet. I walk my own dog every day, and if your pup enjoys walks and is able to join us, I'd be happy to include them in our daily adventures. My home is clean, safe, and pet-friendly, giving your furry family member a comfortable place to relax and feel at home. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so i'll send you daily photos and updates so you can see all the fun your pup is having and peace of mind. If you have a puppy, I can also help with crate training and potty training by following a consistent routine and using positive reinforcement, but it has to be with a crate for cleanliness. My promise is simple: I'll care for your dog with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to welcoming your furry family member into my home. I have saved my dog Kiddy (who has now passed away at 19yrs old) from near death when she was 16yrs old. She had an infected tooth which got into her blood and caused her to almost die. the doctor gave her antibiotics but she wasn't eating or drinking for days. I put in a blender chicken and pedialyte, I then poured it into a feeding syringe and carefully put it in her mouth, I did this for 2 days and she came back to life. She got her tooth pulled as soon as she was better. I wanted to tell my story so you know that I will do whatever it takes to care for your pup. Our fur babies are family❤️❤️🙏 I am retired and home to take care of your pup. I do have one little dog and 2 cats. My pup is on an eating schedule and walking schedule so if your pup is on any schedule I will accommodate. My dogs and cats are cherished members of the family, and I will treat your animals as my extended family. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where your pet feels happy and secure while your pet feels happy and secure will you're away. I have a fully fenced yard for outdoor play and live close to a park, where your pup can enjoy daily walks and exercise. I also have a swimming pool that is not fenced; however, your pets safety is my highest priority, and I closely supervise all outdoor time to ensure they stay safe. if your pet requires medication, I am experienced and comfortable administering it according to your instructions. I will also follow your preferred feeding schedule and routine to help your pet feel at home. I specialize in caring for small to medium-size dogs. if your pup enjoys relaxing on the couch, they're welcome to cuddle up with me. I can provide a crate if needed, or you're welcome to bring your own if that's what your pup is accustomed to sleeping in. For the comfort and cleanliness of my home, I do require that all pets be potty trained or crated while learning to be potty trained. I also understand that every pet has unique needs. For example, I currently care for a friends dog who uses a dog litter box, so im happy to accommodate that setup if needed. As a special treat, I make homemade boil chicken treats that many dogs love, of course, I will always follow any dietary restrictions or special instructions you provide. Most importantly, I will care for your pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I want every dog or cat in my care to feel safe, loved, and right at home.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Vernalis

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 600 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 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 Vernalis. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
