About: I grew up in a home where my parents bred and fostered dogs, so caring for animals has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I was hands-on with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and everyday care from a young age, and I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, friends and neighbors have trusted me with their pets for everything from walks and drop-ins to extended overnight stays lasting three months or more. I know how important it is to have someone you can completely trust with both your pet and your home, and I treat every animal I care for like they’re my own. I’m attentive, affectionate, dependable, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day, including weekdays and weekends. This gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of one-on-one attention. I’m also available for overnight stays and can accommodate pets who need a little extra company or a more consistent routine. A typical day includes neighborhood walks, plenty of backyard time, playtime, and lots of love and cuddles. I like to follow each pet's usual schedule as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home while they're with me. Whether your pup loves long walks and playing outside or would rather curl up and relax, I'm happy to match their energy and routine.
“My husband and I needed someone to take care of our 2 cats (and the house) while we were away so we chose Larry, even though we read he is a big dog-lover. It goes without saying that we were nervous leaving a perfect stranger at our house with the cats, after 4 years of not leaving the house for even a single night, but having Larry over put our minds at ease. Larry has a very mellow and quiet personality, so even the skittish cat started to accept having a stranger in the house by the third day. Having someone you don't know come to stay at your house and take care of your pets will always be stressful, but I can honestly say that Larry is 100 % trustworthy when it comes to taking care of both the pets and the house. We already booked him for our next trip away and plan to use him as long as he is available.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and always found myself helping friends and neighbors to train their dogs and look after their cats. It is beyond rewarding to see the comfort and relaxed nature of pets develop as a result of training and devoted care and time. I have experience with cats raised from birth, and fostered dogs from unfortunate situations (most recently a stubborn husky who learned to play at 9 years old). In addition to happy pets, my goal is to support busy pet owners with pet clean up and organization recommendations to help make your life easier and more time to appreciate your furry friend. I work full time and am a returning college student with a consistent schedule and experience managing hectic calendars. I maintain a promise to stick to all appointments and communicate promptly regarding any changes and/or updates. I am available during the week after 6pm, and on the weekends from 9am to 5pm. Please feel free to message me with any questions and we can troubleshoot appointments and care that work for you. I cater to all animals based on their needs and comfort levels. From highly energetic play, to quiet company, I focus on building trust with your pet in their safe space to reduce stress and help support structure and routines. I welcome conversations with you to understand what is most important in your expectations and the elevated treatment of your pet(s).
About: I am an animal lover who is also a mother so I am well trained in patience, kindness, understanding, serving and guiding! I show respect to all living things and I stand up for anyone who might not have their own voice to. I have a lot of availability as I am fully dedicated to this job! I'm open to on-going jobs or just one time help, anything you need. I have a very safe home in West Hills. When I care for pets I make sure all their needs are met including food, water, play, clean body, clean environment and love!
“Julia is so sweet and Rocket really loves her! As an over the top dog Mom, I trust Julia 100%. She is professional, polite, responsive and you can see her love for animals. We are so happy to have Julia to come check in on Rocket!”
“Another great drop-in with Anthony. He's a very understanding and patient person and that really helps with bonding with our anxious dog. He's always on time and doesn't mind taking the time it takes to get to know a dog.”
“Cynthia was wonderful! She was friendly, professional, and very communicative throughout my holiday trip. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even went above and beyond by bringing my packages inside for safekeeping. I’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
About: With years of experience caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and special needs, I offer truly attentive, loving, and responsible care while you're away. I'm not just a sitter I’m a calm, trustworthy presence who treats your home and pets like my own. After a personal experience that showed me how important reliable pet care is, I founded Sit and Wander Co., a professional house and pet-sitting business that’s earned the trust of frequent travelers, families, and even celebrity clients. 🌍✨ 🐶 Experienced with senior dogs, mobility needs, and medication schedules 💊 Comfortable administering oral meds, supplements, and topical treatments 🐾 Confident with reactive or shy animals who need extra patience and calm energy 🧹 Respectful of your home — clean, tidy, and discreet 📸 Excellent communication with daily updates and cute photos (videos and more!) Also with your permission I have a social media account I feature them on 🌟 Dozens of glowing reviews on my site: sitandwander and via TrustedHousesitters profile I specialize in overnight and extended travel sits, but I’m also happy to help with drop-ins or day visits depending on your needs. Let’s connect, I’d love to hear more about your pets and how I can help you travel with peace of mind! I have an open and flexible schedule. I work a couple hours from home a day. I go for several walks a day and prefer the companionship of the dogs with me. I will provide a safe clean and secure environment for your pet while they are in my care, as if they were my own. Pets are a gift to us, each one!
About: I’ve cared for dogs all my life, I love to see them happy the more love they receive! I am always reliable and animals always seem to love me! Right now I am working part time and I use this as a side income during my free time. I love animals so I thought, why not take care of some during my off hours? Although I will not be offering animal care in my own home, I care for animals just as I would want my own cared for. Responsibly, Gently, passionately, patiently and lovingly.
About: USE MY CODE MARISF01875 FOR $20 OFF BOOKING From growing up with pets to working in a vet hospital, animals have always been at the center of my world. While my job is mostly administrative, I’m lucky to connect with every fur baby that walks through our doors— and their humans too! I’ve picked up a lot of knowledge just by being in this environment, from understanding pet behavior to recognizing when something might need a professional’s attention. What sets me apart? I have direct access to veterinary care, and I’m well-versed in how to handle unexpected situations calmly and with care. Your pet will be treated like my own—whether that means a cozy walk, playtime, or simply being a comforting presence while you're away. I bring love, attention, and a little vet-clinic peace of mind to every visit. I work full-time at a veterinary hospital, which keeps me close to pets (and pet parents!) every day. I’m currently looking for sitting and drop-in opportunities near my workplace so I can stay close to both the job and your pet—making it easy for me to check in regularly and be nearby in case of anything urgent. On weekends, I’m fully available for more dedicated, around-the-clock care, whether that’s overnight stays, extended visits, or just extra snuggles and walks. I only offer pet care in the comfort of your pet’s home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow your care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding, walks, medication, or playtime—while keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. My goal is to make every visit feel calm, loving, and familiar, so your pet feels comfortable even while you’re away.

This was our second time with Anica checking on our three kitties while we were out of town, and she was great just like the first time. She is communicative, follows instructions, and genuinely cares for our cats. I’m so glad to have found someone local that I’ve been able to rebook and anticipate we’ll continue to request Anica for future times we’re away!
Aubrey is amazing. She took such wonderful care of my senior kitty and took the stress away from being away from her. Sending pics and videos, making sure to address my particular concerns over kitty’s comfort. She also made sure to tidy up any mess my kitty made during the week which was a big help. Thank you for taking such great care of everything during the holiday, Aubrey!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in West Hills on Rover is $23.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 7,492 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Hills. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Hills. On Rover:
- 89% 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 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.
