“Leslie watched my cat for 3 nights. He is very shy and scared and she made sure he was comfortable in his own little area without having to worry about the other pets in the house. Although they slowly gained his trust and he cuddled with her adorable, sweet cat. I felt my cat was safe and in great hands from the moment I left him. She provided pictures and updates which was wonderful to receive. Thank you so much Leslie and to your family for being so caring and loving. And for the patience of trying to win over our little shy guy so he could get pets and cuddles. I would recommend her 10/10 to care for your pets.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets around my whole life. Dogs and cats specifically but fish and reptiles too! I even have a gecko of my own. With my years of experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I can provide safe, loving, and dependable care for your pets too! I have a very free schedule at the moment due to taking time off of school. I am available weekdays and weekends, mostly afternoon and night. Some morning availability. I make sure to focus on patience when working with new pets to ensure they are comfortable with me in their environment. I treat each home with respect and communicate clearly with owners so they feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Makenna is great, especially for shy kitties! She got my cat to warm up to her quick, and took great care of her while I was gone, including by going above and beyond when some ants found her food. She was also available on short notice, which was a godsend.”
About: I’ve looked after neighbors dogs and family friends dogs for years. I’m knowledgeable in canine body language so I can read their comfort levels and ensure they aren’t getting overwhelmed. I am very proficient in bathing dogs, I get dogs with double coats deshed and curly coated dogs brushed out. I am currently working part time at a dog grooming facility, but I have few hours. I would have plenty of time to play or lounge with your pups depending on their needs. If your dog is low energy, I would be more than happy to just hang out and play low impact games with them. For my high energy buddies, I would be happy to (with pet parent permission) take them on a trail hike or play ball.
About: I've had dogs and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I'm retired now, and I have all the time in the world to hang out with yours! I'm retired, with nothing to distract me from taking care of your pet. I have a nice yard to entertain your dog during the day, or I can come over and hang out with your pet. Either way, I'm your guy! I have a fenced yard and all the time in the world to hang out with or entertain your pet at my house or yours.
“Alexandra was wonderful! She was very attentive and communicative and was flexible when my little guy needed to start a medication at the last minute. Would definitely ask her again!”
About: I have over 20 years of veterinary medical experience and am a Registered Veterinary Technician. I specialize in taking care of senior pets or pets with special needs. I have taken care of everything from dogs and cats to reptiles and salt water aquariums. I am passionate about giving you a peace of mind when you leave your pet in my care. I am currently a stay at home mom to my 3 kids and have a very flexible schedule. I am available for drop ins and walks. I can care for pets in your own home. Pets are creatures of routine so keeping them in their own home and environment is the best way to avoid stress, especially if you are out of town.
“Aimee is so so wonderful! She is great at communicating and my cat loved her! All my expectations were exceeded. I felt like even being away from my cat Aimee made me feel like I was still with him! :) I appreciate her so much for taking care of my little one”
“Best sitter I’ve had! Marilyn watched my 2 cats, one of them who was freshly recovering from a urinary blockage. She was able to ease my anxious mind while I was away on my trip. My cats LOVED her.”
“Kylie was so helpful during my weekend away. She did a great job stopping by to take care of my cat and I will definitely rebook her! She made my time away from my cat less stressful since I knew he was in good hands 😊”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and rabbits for neighbors and friends since I was 10. I grew up with dogs, and loved helping train them. I have found great success with force free training! I am a student, so I have time during the week for dog walks and at home check ins! I may have occasional weekend availability as well, but will be able to help out most on weekdays. I don’t offer care for pets at my home, but I am happy to work with whatever requests you have. I am very flexible and happy to accommodate specific rules if needed, I know every pet has their own quirks :)
About: Dedicated and compassionate Pet Care Professional with over 5 years of hands on experience providing exceptional care for pets, including feeding, walking, administering medication, and ensuring overall wellbeing. Passionate about building trusting relationships with both pets and pet parents. Known for reliability, strong communication, and commitment to creating a safe and loving environment for all pets in my care. I am currently pursing educational goals while contributing to work in a field I truly love. Pet care is my strong suit and passion of mine. I look forward to forming long lasting connections with pet friends and pet parents. I’m familiar with dog walking, pet visits, and pet sitting (overnight & 24 hour). With gathering as much information in regards to your fur baby’s routine the better!
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, so I'm naturally comfortable with their everyday needs. I've sat informally for neighbors before and I'm happy to walk dogs as well as care for them at home. I may be newer to formal sitting, but I bring patience, attentiveness, and a lifetime of comfort and experience with dogs. I currently go to school Monday through Fridays in the morning but I have free afternoons and weekend! I am not available for boarding but am more than happy to take care of a home as well as some adorable animals! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for a pet. Since I offer care in the client's home, I follow your routine closely, feeding schedules, medication if needed, and any house rules you have. I double-check that doors and gates are secure so pets can't get out, and I stay attentive and present during the time I'm there, whether that's a visit, a walk, or overnight care in your home. I treat every pet with the same calm, genuine attention I'd want for my own, and I'm always happy to check in with updates so you have peace of mind while you're away.
“Sally made the whole Rover experience easy and knowing someone would be in to check on Puzzles while I was out of town made me feel less guilty about leaving. Plus getting updates about the visit was as well!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and small pets since childhood and have 7 years of formal pet/house-sitting experience in San Diego, including daily walks, medication administration, and senior-pet care. I’m calm, punctual, and used to following detailed routines and owner instructions while keeping homes clean and secure. As a certified calisthenics trainer and wellness coach I bring stamina for long walks, reliable energy for active dogs, and a respectful, low-impact presence in homes; I’m happy to provide references and a video call before booking. My schedule is flexible, and I can give pets consistent care throughout the day. I’m usually available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, with enough time for walks, play, feeding, and check-ins. I prioritize a calm, clean, and safe environment for every pet. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, respect home rules, and make sure pets feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Jewels took care of our 1 year old kitty, Lewis, for the weekend and she was fantastic! Lewis had a blast with her and she took great care of him. She was easy to communicate with and sent us lots of pictures and updates.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Bonsall
Sarah was incredible. We were pretty apprehensive about leaving our cat, Felix, for 10 days, but we couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for him. She went above and beyond multiple times when she didn’t have to, and it was clear she really cared about him. That gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, healthy cat and couldn’t be more grateful. We would book Sarah again in a heartbeat. If we could give her more than five stars, we would!
Sarah was a joy to work with! She did drop in visits for my cats while I was out of town and I returned home to happy cats. She even got my very shy cat to make an appearance, something friends who have been coming over for years haven’t been able to accomplish. Would recommend and book again!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Bonsall is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 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.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
