Jenna took excellent care of my chinchillas while I was out of town, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Jenna to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter—especially if you have small or exotic pets. I would absolutely book with her again!

About: Hi there! I’m Mel. I’ve had dogs in my life for over 30 years — growing up with Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Border Collies, and Labs, and later caring for high-energy breeds like Huskies, Malamutes, Pit Bulls, and Dobermans as an adult. I’m comfortable with big dogs, strong pullers, and dogs who need real exercise, but I’m just as happy with a Chihuahua curled up on the couch. I spent 8 years as a nanny, so looking after something that depends on you completely isn’t new to me — it’s second nature. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. I don’t board dogs in my own home, since I have a resident cat (a very opinionated tabby mix), but I’m experienced with cats too, including Maine Coons and other long-haired breeds, if you need a sitter for feline friends as well. I’ve handled the less glamorous parts of the job without blinking: medication schedules, backyard cleanup, even a dog who met a skunk face-first. My standard for every visit is simple — when you get home, your house should look better than when you left it, and your dog should be fed, exercised, and ready to sleep well. I treat your home and your animal the way I’d want mine treated. I’m self-employed, so my schedule is flexible and mostly built around dog care. I’m generally available 8am–6pm on weekdays, with some days running later. In the summer heat, I keep an eye on pavement temperature and adjust walk times so it’s safe on paws — sometimes that means earlier or later in the day rather than midday. Weekends are available with advance scheduling. I’m also happy to do drop-in visits spaced out over the day or across longer periods if that suits your dog’s routine better than a single visit. Since I don’t board dogs in my own home — I have a resident cat — all my care happens in your space, on your dog’s normal turf, which tends to be less stressful for them than an unfamiliar house. I follow whatever routine you set: meals, meds, walks, exercise. I’m comfortable administering medication, cleaning up after accidents or messes, and handling anything that comes up — I’ve dealt with a dog getting skunked, dogs with high energy who need real exercise, and the everyday logistics of keeping a home running while you’re away. My rule for every visit: your house should look better than when you left it, and your dog should be fed, exercised, and settled by the time you get home.

This is the 2nd time Scott helps us out with our furbabies & he’s been great! Our babies are not the easiest - especially our recently adopted senior dog & my very squittish cat, but Scott takes good care of them & keeps them clean despite all the accidents. He sends pictures & pupdates with each visit too & also helps me water my plants! 5/5 would recommend! Thanks, Scott!!

About: Hi! My name is Éowyn, and I'm a Psychology student at the University of California, Irvine. I'm dependable, patient, and absolutely love spending time with animals. If there's a dog or cat at a gathering, you'll probably find me spending time with them! I've been helping care for pets since I was four years old (I am now almost 20). Growing up, I cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from Chihuahuas to Huskies and German Shepherds. I also have extensive experience caring for cats and have helped care for 12 cats throughout my lifetime. My pet care experience includes dog walking, feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, changing litter boxes, playtime, and making sure every animal receives the attention and affection they need. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one special. As a Student Manager in the UC Irvine Anteater Band and an Undergraduate Intern with the Sacramento County District Attorney's Office, I've developed strong communication, organization, and responsibility skills. Pet owners can count on me to show up on time, follow instructions carefully, and provide dependable care for their pets. I'm an active person who enjoys walking, so whether your dog needs exercise, playtime, or simply companionship while you're away, I'd be happy to help! My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages during every visit because I know how reassuring it is to know your pet is happy and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I'm currently only working 16 hours a week, Monday-Thursday, 8am-12pm. Other than this time, I have plenty of time to take care of your furry baby! I'm also relatively free/open on Fridays and weekends. Whether it's morning walks, afternoon drop-in visits, evening playtime, or overnight house sitting, I'm committed to following your pet's routine as closely as possible. I also make it a priority to communicate promptly and keep you updated throughout each visit with photos and messages. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, dietary needs, and any special instructions before each visit. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed (unless instructed otherwise in a safe, enclosed area), stay aware of our surroundings, and prioritize their safety at all times. During drop-in visits and house sitting, I'll make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and exercise, and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. I also treat every client's home with the same care and respect I would my own. I'll keep your home clean and secure, lock doors and gates, and provide regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet (and home!) is happy and well cared for. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing dependable, compassionate care every time.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was little, growing up with a sheltie dog from when I was born. I have taken care of friends, family and neighbor’s dogs and cats; taking them on walks, feeding them, playing with them and caring for them as if they were my own. Living the past 4 years with a roommates/friends who had an pitbull/husky mix and calico cat I helped out often with care and they became family to me as well. Two years ago I as well, had frequently the pleasure of getting to care for both dogs/cats through rover overnight as well as doing check in feedings. I’m currently working part time so I have the flexibility to play with your pets during the week days and all day on the weekends. I unfortunately don’t currently have the ability to board at my home. I always confirm with the client what the pets schedule may be, any health/behavioral concerns, likes/dislikes, emergency contacts & their local veterinary in case of emergency. Having open communication throughout the service, I feel as well helps so that everyone is on the same page in caring and maintaining the safety of their pet.

About: I’ve cared for animals for many years, primarily through owning and caring for my own pets, including dogs, cats and reptiles as well as many other small critters. I have experience with both senior dogs and cats. I am comfortable administering daily medications and providing the extra patience and attention they may need. I have also volunteered at my local animal shelter in the past, where I gained hands on experience working with animals of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I understand that every pet is unique and my goal is to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. This is currently my full time job so I am available Monday through Saturday, morning or evenings to pop in and take care of your pets! I am happy to follow any and all rules you have set up in your home to care for your pet. Their safety and routine is most important!

We have 2 cats in our house as well, an orange cat named Fritz and a siamese named Tut. I am currently working part time, and on summer break, so I have lots of time available to assist with feeding and walking dogs currently. I am an experienced walker and have no issues following special instructions to make sure your pup is safe and cared for the way they recognize.

Michelle RULES! She is my go-to sitter ❤️ My kitties really trust her and are comfortable around her. Not only is she thorough with communicating and understanding of my cats’ needs, she’s also flexible with any changes in needs as well! I took my boy Lemon for dental a few days before my booking & he ended up needing some teeth pulled which I was not expecting- he was to only be fed wet food for a while, and was sent home with medication. Poor planning on my part, but I gave a heads up to Michelle and she was more than willing to accommodate these changes with no problems at all. PLEASE give any sitter more notice than I did, but just in case something does happen- Michelle’s got you covered! I’m a chronic worrier and knowing she’s watching over my babies truly puts me at ease. I am grateful to know I can depend on her when I need to leave somewhere! 😻😸😽

Jandy was extremely attentive to our cats while we were away and remembered little things about them that we had shared that seemed to make us being away easier on them! She did a lot more than just clean litters and feed them—the interaction was key to make us feel like our kitties were doing okay without us. She was patient with our cat who can be a cranky to others. 10/10 recommend!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - West Sacramento

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in West Sacramento on Rover is $20.54 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 1,945 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Sacramento. 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 Sacramento. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
