Letting someone into your home take care of your oets is a nerve-racking experience. We are so grateful to have found Vy. She was very thorough on making sure she understood what our pets needs were before, even stopping by before the term started. She was a great communicator, letting us know every time she stopped by with photos and we felt like we were there real time in terms of updates. It really put our minds at ease. We’ll definitely be rebooking with her next time we head out of town!

About: As a dog groomer for over 5 years, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and sizes. I especially enjoy working with old timers. I love seeing their spunky and winning personalities. I give them the extra TLC they need and wait patiently on them. I work full time as a dog groomer, but cannot get enough of dogs. This will also allow me to get my steps in. I’m bottom heavy, so it’s tough for a dog to topple me over I can feed, water, and play with pups when at your home. I have experience changing diapers and cleaning up pee and/or poo accidents if they happen.

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, and my experience as a pet owner has taught me how important it is to provide patient, reliable, and loving care. I previously owned three dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, basic care, and understanding, different personalities and needs. Caring for them every day help me become confident handling dogs of different temperament and energy levels. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, lots of playtime, or a calm and comforting companion while you’re away, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved. I carefully follow each owners instructions and do my best to maintain your pets regular routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in carrying hands. My goal is to provide a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pet. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including most weekends. I enjoy spending quality time with pets and can adjust my schedule when possible to provide consistent care. If you have specific timing or care requests, feel free to reach out - I’m happy to discuss availability and find a schedule that works for both you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions to ensure they feel safe, uncomfortable. I carefully follow, feeding schedules, exercise, routines, medication instructions ;if needed), and any house rules you provide. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through patients, consistency, and open communication. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is resting receiving attentive, loving care. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and positive environment, where your pet feels comfortable, love, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have been a lifelong dog lover and owner! Growing up, my home was always filled with pups of all shapes and sizes, from a small Bichon Poodle mix to independent Shiba Inus and a high-energy Husky. I am incredibly comfortable with all breeds and energy levels. I also have plenty of experience handling the chaotic puppy phase; I raised a pup who thought everything was a snack, so I am highly vigilant about safety and keeping a clean environment. As an active person, I love giving dogs plenty of exercise and playtime, while strictly adhering to your specific feeding schedules and house rules. Your pup will get a perfect balance of structure, safety, and endless love! I am currently working 2 part-time jobs. My work schedule is not set yet but I work 5 hours a day. The time depends on which shift I get assigned to. My schedule is pretty flexible so I am willing to shift things around to make it work! My main goal is just keeping your dog happy and comfortable in their own space. I'm totally cool with following whatever house rules or specific routines you have set up, you know your pup best! I'll keep them company, make sure they're well fed and exercised, and send you some fun photo updates so you can see they're doing great.

About: Hi, I’m Tommy! I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and animals have always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends, friends of friends, and extended family. Whether it’s for a quick walk, a daily drop-in, or an overnight stay, I genuinely enjoy caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. Whenever I travel, I even volunteer to help transport rescue dogs so they can find their forever homes—it's one of the most rewarding things I do. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always take time to learn their routines and preferences to make them feel as comfortable as possible. You can count on me for reliable, loving, and attentive care. I treat every pet like family, and I’d be honored to help care for yours! Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays—even on weekends and holidays. Whether it’s early mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I can adapt to your pet’s needs. Being home-based means I’m fully present and able to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my focus is always on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions—so they feel comfortable and secure. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and routines, keeping things clean and organized while making sure your pet is happy and well-cared-for. In my home (if applicable), I provide a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of attention, play, and rest. I keep a close eye on pets at all times and prioritize their well-being, including administering any medications if needed. My goal is always to make your pet feel relaxed and loved while you're away.

Nicole took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. Not only did she walk and care for our dog daily, she communicated regularly and checked in whenever she had questions. She is personable, attentive to details, and a total natural when it comes to caring for pets. We would totally ask Nicole to care for our pet again and highly recommend her to other pet owners.

About: I’ve been an animal lover ever since I was a child. When I got my dog in 2020, it increased my skill in fostering closer relationships and love with all kinds of animals. I’ve trained my dog when he was a puppy (potty training, wait & sit, tricks, etc) and have taken care of birds, cats, guinea pigs and even lizards. Caring for pets is my passion. I have lots of experience and I have an immense amount of love for any animal I encounter! I’m on my summer break, so I will most likely be flexible with time. I can do mornings and evenings, just need to be informed a few days beforehand! I can be playful, chill, patient, anything a pet needs. Backyard? Play! Sleepy? Chill and cuddle! Studious? I’ll teach some tricks and manners! I can practice a wide range of practically anything.

About: I love dogs and dream about getting my own. I’ve pet-sat for families since I was 10 and grew up with my two Goldendoodles, who I absolutely adore and consider my babies, named Olive and Cedar! I’m comfortable with daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, medications, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and love being active with dogs—whether that’s going on walks, giving them attention, or just making sure they feel comfortable and happy. I currently work 1–2 days per week at the hospital as a pediatric oncology CNA, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. On my days off, I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. I’m able to be consistent with routines like feeding, walks, and playtime, and I enjoy spending my free time being active and caring for animals. My schedule allows me to be reliable and fully present when I’m caring for pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication needs if applicable, and any specific care preferences the owner has. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, especially walks for dogs to help them stay happy and calm while their owners are away. I also focus on creating a safe, clean environment and making sure pets feel secure and not stressed in their owner’s absence.

About: I love all animals big and small. I've taken care of dogs, cats, rodents, and more. No animal shall be left uncared for. I am the type of person to go find the pet of the house at a party. I ran track since i was little so if theres ever a need to chase your pet trust that i will keep up with them.🙏 I am able to offer basic training to dogs and puppies and if theres anything special you'd like me to try let me know! My schedule for the most part is completely free for the summer. So I will be able to do long stays as needed without leaving. What things will look like booking me: Safety First: Secure the home, keep dangerous items out of reach, and follow the client’s instructions carefully. Routine is Key: Sticking to the pet’s regular feeding schedule, exercise routine, and medication times helps them feel safe and comfortable. Plenty of Play and Cuddles: Providing enrichment through playtime, walks, and affection is essential for a pet’s well-being. Cleanliness: Scooping litter boxes, cleaning up messes, and refreshing water bowls. Communication: Regular updates and photos to reassure that your pet is happy and well-cared for.

Armand is always communicative and sends plenty of pictures and video (exactly what every pet parent wants to see while on vacation!). He also pays special attention to our cat’s medical needs, which reassures us that he’s receiving the care and attention he requires. Thank you, Armand, for always taking such great care of our cats. It’s clear how much they love you, and hearing how excited they get when you arrive says it all!

Kimi took amazing care of my 18 year old cat with stage 3 CKD while I was away for a week. She visited twice a day and handled everything so patiently and compassionately, including feeding her, giving subcutaneous fluids, cleaning the litter box, giving pills, and helping with the extra challenges of a senior cat who is picky with food and struggles with constipation. She was incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive, and I could tell she truly cared about my cat’s comfort and wellbeing. Because of her, I felt so relieved knowing my cat was in such good hands, and I was actually able to relax and enjoy my trip. I’m very grateful for her help and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend Kimi, especially for pets who need extra patience and care.

Selena did a great job taking care of my dog, BB. Before coming over, she asked about his routine, personality, and my preferences, which immediately made me feel comfortable leaving him with her. She made sure BB was fed, comfortable, and not lonely, and she actually spent time playing with him in the backyard and giving him attention instead of rushing through the visit. I felt really at ease trusting Selena in our home (which means a lot with all the horror stories you hear). She sent updates and plenty of photos, and BB looked happy and relaxed the whole time.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Buena Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Buena Park on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 21,436 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Buena Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Buena Park stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
