About: My love of animals began at home with my family pets. Over the years, these included dogs, cats, ducks, goldfish, horses, and a mule named Fred. I started pet sitting in 2010 and worked with a high-end pet sitting company based in Los Angeles from 2019–2025. I also have experience with goats after volunteering on a property in Northern California. My other specialities include puppy care, senior pet care, administering medications (including insulin shots for a diabetic cat), and a certificate in Cat and Dog First Aid from the American Red Cross (2023). As of June 2026, I'm working to become a certified dog trainer via Rover's collaboration with GoodPup. I look forward to caring for your fur babies! I specialize in overnight pet sitting but am able to accommodate a variety of requests. I proudly service the entire Los Angeles Metropolitan Area, but my daycare, drop-in, and dog-walking rates are most affordable for clients who live within a 10-mile radius of Yorba Linda. I typically respond to messages within three business days. Your pet will receive high-quality care in the comfort and familiarity of your home, which helps to prevent/reduce separation anxiety and gives you peace of mind about the safety and suitability of their environment. In addition to passing Rover's third-party enhanced criminal background check, I have Pet Care Insurance™ through Veracity Insurance Solutions (VIS), a partner of Lloyd's of London that also backs the Rover Guarantee.
“Sarah was so reliable and responsive to ours and Twiggs’ needs. She gave us updates and feedback and seemed to really get along with Twiggs. I look forward to having Sarah come back and take care of Twiggs the next time we go away! Thanks for the photos too!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats and more, including two years at an animal clinic where I administered medications, handled feeding, cleaning, and made sure pets felt safe and comfortable. I’ve also worked as a dog pack walker, managed group walks, and provided pet sitting, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I understand animal behavior and take a calm, attentive approach—caring for pets isn’t just what I do, it’s my passion, and I treat every animal like my own. I am working full time, but available in the evenings or for walks and on the weekends I can do check ins and walks! I’m more than happy to take your baby on a short or a looong walk. In your home, I provide respectful, compassionate care while honoring your space and privacy. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free, and I treat your home with the same care and professionalism as I do your pets. I’m clean, reliable, and attentive, making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-loved while you’re away.
“Saul is the best! We have two cats with completely different personalities and he adapted so well to both. He gave so much love and exercise to our extrovert cat and patience and care to our very introvert cat. He knew exactly what to do with both. He also kept us updated with EVERYTHING, which gave us SO much peace of mind! He will from now on be our cat sitter and I recommend Saul to everyone!”
“Jenn is an amazing cat sitter who understands cats. My cat likes her immediately. In the past three days, Jenn kept sending us daily updates and photos, which took away our worries . Our home was just as we left it—clean and well-kept—and our cat seemed relaxed and happy upon our return. We highly recommend Jenn to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets!”
About: I have over 25 years of experience working in animal hospitals and have a deep love for animals of all kinds. Caring for pets has always been a big part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. My experience in veterinary hospitals means I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs and administering medications. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and know how important it is to follow each pet’s individual routine and instructions. I especially love cats and have a soft spot for their unique personalities! Whether your pet needs medication, extra attention, playtime, walks, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own pets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m retired, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to caring for pets. I love having animals as part of my day and enjoy giving them the attention, companionship, and care they need. My schedule allows me to be very accommodating to each pet’s individual routine and needs. I care for every pet according to their individual needs, routine, and personality. With 25 years of experience working in animal hospitals, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including seniors and pets with special needs, and I can administer medications when needed. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m also respectful of your home and will leave everything just as I found it. Most importantly, I give pets plenty of attention, affection, and companionship so they feel safe and loved while you’re away.
About: I have the most experience pet sitting cats, dogs, and rabbits, and I am looking for even more experience with them! I enjoy looking after other people’s pets and get along great with them despite not having any of my own! I am full time college student but my schedule is still clear enough to look after pets :) I am based in Hawthorne Ca and I’m most familiar with the South Bay! I am food handler certified. I am a very cautious and patient person around other people's beloved animals. I try my best to provide a space where they are safe and comfortable with me.
“I can't say enough about Lisa's care of our little prince. This was our first time doing this and we had not been apart from Blacky (our Cat) since he picked us just a little over a year ago. We were apprehensive at first, but Lisa assured us he would be fine with her. After our meet & greet with Lisa, we felt that she was a good fit. During our trip abroad, Lisa would send us notes, pics and videos of Blacky during his stay. Lisa is a kind, thoughtful and gentle person. I would highly recommend her for your boarding needs. I hate to say it, but I think Blacky misses Lisa. Thank you for everything you've done for us. Your friend, Ricky Z”
About: Hi! My name is Nikki, I just graduated from UCSC with a B.S. in Neuroscience and a B.A. in Psychology and am now training as an EMT. I have a 3 year old cat named Mr. Whiskers that I adopted during my time in Santa Cruz and quite a few family pets - a 13 year old standard poodle, a 13 year old yorkie-poo, a 5 year old miniature labradoodle, and a 1 year old cat (along with a tortoise and some other exotic pets!). I have always loved dog-sitting for my neighbors, with breeds including german shepherds, golden retrievers, labs, doodles, jack russel's, and other mixed breeds. I'd been consistently dog-sitting for 4 years until I took a break being in Santa Cruz, since my client base is in Socal, but had committed myself to caring for my own cat and my friend's pets when they are out of town. When it comes to caring for your pet, I will dedicate just as much love and care as I do my own! Additionally, my cat has unfortunately had to deal with some urinary issues causing him to be on a permanent urinary prescription diet and having to take meds during his flare-ups. Because of this, I completely understand the struggles of caring for a loved pet with health issues. It has allowed me to be very comfortable with administering both pill and liquid forms of medication to pets and punctual with needed times of administration. I would love to take care of your fur babies for enrichment, feeding, playing, and anything you already do with them that helps them feel happy and comfortable! I am currently training as an EMT and doing a part time internship but have time before and after both of these to spend time with your pets! I am super flexible with the environment that I am in to care for your pets and want them to feel as comfortable as possible while their owners are gone. I have no problem following very specific routines for your pet's needs!
About: Caring for dogs isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about. I love spending time with dogs, going on walks, and getting to know their unique personalities. I’m using this as a fun way to gain more experience in dog walking and pet care while doing something I truly enjoy. I’d love the opportunity to give your pup some extra love, attention, and exercise I'm available from 6 am to 7 am and after work between 6 pm and 10 pm! Weekends I am quite flexible at the moment. I will carefully follow the instructions the owner has given me. My friends call me a mother as I am responsible, caring, and always have whatever my friend group needs. Honestly, I will bring those characteristics into this field as well.
About: I had my own dog for almost 16 years and I have pet sat for quite a few friends and their families. I have given medication, fed them, walked them, bathed them and given them lots of love! I am always available to take care of your furry friends! This type of work makes me so happy and there’s nothing better than being around cats and dogs all day. Thanks in advance for trusting me with your fur babies! Our backyard is enclosed. We have a pool and a mini lawn as well. There are many trails around our house that are great for walking
About: For majority of my life, I have been a dog and cat owner. I have helped take care of friend’s pets while they were away. I am currently working a hybrid flexible schedule. I enjoy taking leisurely walks and/or putting in the miles and play for our high energy pups. I have a fenced yard, 2 male cats and a 3 year old child. I currently do not have a crate for a medium/large dog.
About: I have grown‑up around dogs and have experience caring for young puppies. I am patient with energetic pets, comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime and basic daily care. I will treat your dog with lots of love and attention. My school schedule is flexible. I can arrange pet‑sitting and dog‑walking around my classes. I have plenty of free time on weekends to spend quality time with pets. I live in a safe apartment. I will closely supervise pets during play time. I keep dangerous items out of reach and pay close attention to pets’ behavior for their safety.
“Kiki is great. She was excellent with our dog and went the extra mile during her drop in visit. We will be asking Kiki back for more visits and you should feel confident in hiring her.”
“Abhi was great! We have a recently rescued cat that I was nervous about leaving while on vacation but she did great with Abhi. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures! Will definitely book with Abhi again!”
“Sara was awesome! She took fantastic care of my cats and was constantly sending me picture updates of how they were doing! She consistently made sure they had enough water, and would let me know each and every time she feed them! She took extremely good care of my kitties and I will definitely be going back if I ever need a cat-sitter again!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always loved caring for them. Growing up, my family had two wonderful dogs who taught me the joy and responsibility of being a pet owner. I also spent a lot of time with my best friend and neighbor’s three bunnies, helping care for them and getting to know their unique personalities. I grew up around every type of pet you can imagine. Those experiences gave me a genuine appreciation for animals of all sizes and temperaments and helped me become comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets. Today I have a sweet 5-year-old cat named Apple who I love dearly. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves to play, go on walks, cuddle, or simply have a calm companion nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and will always provide plenty of attention, affection, and dependable care. I work part time, giving me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for pet care, visits, playtime, and providing consistent attention. I am available weekdays after 12pm and weekends anytime. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment where pets feel comfortable. I follow routines carefully, respect boundaries, and provide loving, dependable care - you can count on me.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Yorba Linda
Yerim was amazing with our cat while we were on vacation. She was so thoughtful and caring with our shy cat! You can tell she really loves animals! Our cat is shy but by the end of the trip he was greeting Yerim at the door purring! She is also great at communicating and responds very quickly. We loved all the photos and videos she sent of our kitty while we were gone! We knew he was in great hands while we were away. I would 100% book her again!
Sarah was AMAZING!! So communicative and eager to go above and beyond for my kitty. My cat doesn’t like new people and Sarah was extremely patient and understanding of her needs. She gave a play by play of what was going on, and offered to clean up the litter and hairball/vomit which happened while she was checking on my cat. Will absolutely book again, and I’d recommend Sarah to anyone needing a drop in sitter.
We were nervous about leaving our two cats, Smokey and Everest, alone for a month while we traveled, but Brian put our minds at ease from the very first visit. He followed all of our instructions perfectly and always responded quickly to messages. He sent photos every day, and it was so nice watching our cats go from shy to clearly comfortable with him, you could tell they really liked him. Thanks to Brian, we were able to fully relax and enjoy our vacation, knowing the cats were in great hands. He was also incredibly flexible, accommodating changes to dates and times on short notice, even mid-trip, and always responded fast. We’re so glad we found someone who was the right fit for our cats, and we’ll definitely be booking him again for future trips.
Chandler took excellent care of our senior cat Chonky. She was very attentive to Chonky's needs. She gave him amply play time, brushed him and pet him. She also took care of feeding, giving him water top ups, taking out the trash, cleaning the dishes and litter boxes. She also vacuumed the tracked litter off the floor. We definitely recommend Chandler for your cat care needs!
My cats really warmed up to Ethan although they're typically very shy with strangers. The updates and photos were prompt and very thorough as well. Ethan also went above and beyond: my cats unfortunately threw up in three different places in the apartment and he unfortunately vomited in three different places in the apartment and he cleaned them up thoroughly, including the rug under the couch. I would definitely recommend Ethan as a pet sitter.
Christina was wonderful! She was always on time and kept me updated with messages and pictures of what my cats were up to, which I really appreciated. She was responsive to texts and even went above and beyond by bringing in packages from our porch. Christina is extremely kind and caring—this is the third time I’ve booked with her, and I will definitely continue to do so. Highly recommend!

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.

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.
