How to search a website page in Chrome using regular expressions?

Is there a chrome extension that could be used to search using regular expressions and have matches highlighted on the page with color.
Example:
You need to highlight all sets of numbers on the page: [0-9]{2,}
Or find all mentions of cats and dogs:(кошк|кот|собак)

Chrome does not provide this. Probably because almost no one needs it. Personally, I have never needed this. In some text editor, a regular expression replacement was periodically needed, and in a browser, it is usually stupid to search by line.
The extension may be. But even if not, it's pretty easy to do. I made an extension, but not for searching on the page, but for highlighting Google search results that match the regular expression by URL (either the color or the redirect can be configured there). All in all, an easy task. So if you really need it, order freelance. It takes two hours, plus or minus.
