“Elaine was super friendly and communicative throughout the booking and drop in process. She provided excellent check in notes that included pictures and videos. By the end of her 2 visits, it seemed that our cat had really warmed up to her. We would definitely book with Elaine again!”
“Shannon went above and beyond in caring for our two cats! I appreciated her for jumping in for our sort of last minute request and doing such a great job. She communicates well, asks great questions — and her updates and pictures gave us peace of mind while we were out of town. She also got the cats to warm up to her so quickly so huge plus. Highly recommend”
About: Hi! There’s nothing in this world I love more than animals! ❤️ I have 5 years of experience caring for cats and dogs. I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and truly enjoy every moment I spend with them! Pet care easily fits into my daily routine because I currently have an open and flexible schedule. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and even for last-minute requests. Your pet’s needs will always be my priority. I currently offer care in my client’s home, so your pet can stay in the environment they know best. Here’s what that looks like for each visit or overnight stay: • Routine first: I keep your exact schedule for meals, walks, litter scooping, playtime, and bedtime so your pet’s day feels familiar and stress-free. • Medical needs covered: I’m comfortable giving oral or topical meds and have hands-on experience nursing sick cats back to health. I always log doses and send you a quick update. • Safety & cleanliness: I wipe bowls, tidy any messes, and double-check doors, gates, and windows each time I leave a room. • Comfort & enrichment: Gentle brushing, puzzle toys, and plenty of one-on-one attention—whether it’s a game of fetch, a quiet lap session, or a calm scratch behind the ears. • Home care bonuses: I’ll bring in mail, water plants, and leave your space exactly as I found it (often a bit cleaner!). • Real-time updates: You get photo and video check-ins so you can relax and enjoy your time away.
“We booked our holiday travel a little late in the year and our normal supply of family/friends who cat-sit for us were unavailable. I took a chance on Rover and found Allen and it all worked out splendidly! I met Allen before we left, gave him a quick intro to our cat Lisette, and away we went. I also left written instructions just in case and Allen followed them to a T. He sent photos and a video every day, putting my fears to rest about leaving our cat alone for the first time (we adopted her 6 months ago). I recommend Allen 100%! We will definitely be calling him again.”

About: Hi! I’m Alexis, a lifelong animal lover who knows how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to tailor my care to each pet’s individual personality, age, routine, and comfort level. I’m comfortable caring for dogs at every stage of life, from energetic puppies to sweet seniors who may need a little extra patience and attention. For puppies, I’m happy to keep up with frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, enrichment, and the routines and training you’re already working on at home.

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands-on professional experience in canine care. Growing up with both a high-energy German Shepherd and a friendly Cockapoo mix gave me an early, deep appreciation for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels.

During my time there, I managed group play, monitored dog body language, handled feedings, and ensured a safe, fun environment for dozens of dogs daily.

I strictly follow home-entry procedures, keep doors and gates secure, and practice safe, defensive walking practices. I adhere precisely to your feeding, medication, and care routines to keep your pet's environment clean, calm, and familiar, while providing regular photo updates for complete peace of mind.

“Teah was great from the start. She came and met my bay girl Buttercup before we booked, to make sure she (buttercup) felt comfortable with her. Immediately, Buttercup started to get close to Teah and felt comfortable around her. Teah also sent me pictures and kept me updated while I was away. I will definitely book again in future trips, if she’s available.”
About: My pet care experience spans decades. I grew up with a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, birds and fish, so I understand that pets are family and hold a special place in our hearts. I understand how important it is to keep to a pets daily routine and want you to feel confident in your pet’s care and at ease while you’re away. I’ve cared for pets belonging to family, friends, coworkers and acquaintances, following detailed instructions for feeding, medication and walking schedules. I also volunteered with Best Friends Animal Society in Salt Lake City, Utah, for over three years, where I walked and handled dogs of various temperaments, cared for cats and their enclosures, and assisted with pet adoptions. My animal care experience also extends beyond household pets. For two years, I worked with the East African Refugee Goat Project of Utah during kidding season, assisting with births and providing care to goats and their mothers afterward. This experience broadened my understanding of animal care and the importance of being attentive to animals’ needs during different stages of life. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs, and I’ll do my best to provide the attentive, thoughtful care I’d want for my own animals. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is safe, comfortable and well cared for. I’m currently available to care for your pets in your home for overnight care, short and long walks, and drop ins. I’m happy to provide overnight care 7 days a week however, if they need 24hour care I’m only available Sat – Monday. On Tuesday – Friday I teach at a local International School and can usually get home to your pet by 4pm at the latest.

As of now, I’m available for any pet care needs over Thanksgiving and Mid-December through Mid-January as school is out for the holidays. Please feel free to contact me. I’d love to spend some time with your fur babies! My goal is to provide care that stays as close as possible to your pet’s usual routine, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. Whether it’s getting plenty of exercise and playtime, sleeping in their favorite bed, or enjoying their usual meals, I’m happy to follow your instructions and accommodate their individual needs. I’m also comfortable administering prescribed medications according to your directions. For your pet’s safety, I ask that you provide emergency contact information for yourself and your veterinarian, just in case an unexpected situation arises. I do my best to keep a close eye on your pet throughout our time together and love capturing special moments to share with you through photo updates. I also understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your beloved pets is a big deal. I treat your home and belongings with respect and take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is receiving attentive, loving care while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Carson
Kaydin took such great care of my cat!! He doesn't always warm up to people until a few meetings in, but immediately was so comfy and excited to see and get pets from Kaydin (animals always know when they have found a trustworthy human). Will be booking again for sure!
Roselyn was amazing! I booked her to stop in every other day while I was on a cruise. She made time to come over before her scheduled start date and let me walk her through what would be needed while I was away. She also offered to check mail and take care of any spontaneous tasks while we were away. She goes above and beyond! If she needed anything she always reached out and followed up. Would highly recommend! I will be booking again for future drop-ins.
This is our second time having Sami take care of our precious cat and again, we are blown away with how seamless she makes the process be! She's always prompt, open to adjustments in the care schedule in-between visits, and so kind/respectful to our space. If you have a fur baby that needs care, we'd highly recommend booking with her! You're mind will definitely be at ease knowing they are in great hands.
Elaine was a pleasure to have come and care for my kitties! They all greeted her when she would come over, they did not hide and were not scared. She did an excellent job at communicating and caring for them. She was also very respectful of my space and I appreciate her removing her shoes when in my home. They were well fed, watered and had clean litter boxes while I was away. She took the time to play with them and give them attention as I’m sure they missed me. Thank you for the all pets and love you showed my kitties. I appreciate all your hard work! Will definitely book her again. Thank you Elaine! 🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈💕💕
Diana helped me take care of my baby cat Sorachi VERY last minute while I went out of town & took great care of her. I really appreciate her super quick responses & detailed notes (& adorable pics) she left for Sorachi each visit she had. Highly recommend her if you need someone to take care of your fur babies. Thank you Diana! :)
Shannon was great! She was able to accommodate my drop in request with short notice and made sure that all my requests were met. She sent videos of my kitten and communicated with me regarding when she entered my home and when she left. I would recommend her to people looking for drop-in sitting and I will definitely use her services again!
Definitely first choice, glad i went with her! Book this beautiful young lady people you won’t regret it i promise. We received daily updates and pictures(she even got our very scary kitty who’s by the way never been a people person…to pet her) a miracle in my eyes lol so shout out to her. I’ll definitely be booking again !
She did a wonderful job making sure my cats were comfortable, happy, and fed every day while I was away for a week. She communicated well and was attentive to all the needs of my special-needs cat and my kittens. I felt confident knowing they were in caring and capable hands!
I’ve had Sora take care of my senior cat multiple times already while Im away and feel confident that I’m leaving my cat in good hands. My cat needs to be given several medications and Sora is able to handle that with no issues. She also updates me regularly. Will definitely rebook in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in West Carson is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $39 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 2,692 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Carson. 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.

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.
