“Bree is awesome! She did great with my two dogs, and earned the trust of our shy Doberman, which is major. Bree communicated clearly and responded to messages quickly. I would definitely book again!”
“Gretchen was really great with Suni and spent some time with him outside. She sent photos and updates during the hour and put up with the process to kennel him when she was leaving. We would definitely book with her again.”
About: "THE GREATNESS OF A NATION AND ITS MORAL PROGRESS CAN BE JUDGED BY THE WAY ITS ANIMALS ARE TREATED". -GANDHI --------------->>Hablo Español<<-------------- Important fact about me: "I treat all animals with dignity, respect and care". -On that note, I will say the following: I am a life-long dog owner. Being a dog walker and sitter really does sound like the perfect PT job. My current job does not involve working with animals, although I wish it did. What I do for a living is in the arts field, I am a graphic designer who also does custom wood work on the side. -I do have pets of my own, 1 dog and 1 cat. I have always had a pet companion by my side. You can rely on me to take care of your dogs as if they were my own. I am very patient, loving and responsible towards other living creatures, specially dogs. -I can always send you photos and videos of your furry friend while we're out for a walk. Thank you, please consider me as your dog walker and sitter. =) PS I like to keep fit, so if your dog needs more of a run than a walk, I can do that too. I work full time but get home early, I am able to take dogs out for a run or a walk as it keeps me moving and I get to spend time with dogs which I love. My 13 year old labrador passed away not too long ago and miss having a dog at home. I have 2 cats at home right now, I understand the different psychology between dogs and cats, I like to think that they understand me and I understand them. If I am at a clients home, I first make sure I close every door behind me. I am very detail oriented and great at following instructions.
About: I have had pets my whole life and I have learned to feed them and take care of them. Neighbors and friends have trusted me to walk their dogs and also watch out for them when needed. I currently do not have a job so I will be available any day to walk or take care of any dogs. Things might change once I get a job but for now I am available any time. I have a fenced yard and many treats I give to my dogs when needed. I have care with food and water bowls as well as dog walking experience.
“Sahba is great! She really cares for my cats and makes an effort to pet and play with my shy cat who’s always hiding, first person ever to actually try! She’s very sweet with them and gives them real quality time and love. I would not trust my cats to anyone else!”
About: I have 10 years experience with dogs and 3 with cats, I’m passionate about exercise and extend this to pets! I’m able to do home visits or take care of them at my apartment. I’m a UW grad student. I’m available Thursday-Sunday for pet care. I enjoy working with small to medium sized dogs and can take cats that aren’t afraid to meet new people (me) or that can warm up to me. I have a private 1 bedroom apartment for myself. My living room features a cat tree and many cat toys for needed stimulation. For dogs, I have toys and fidgets as well and enjoy taking them on walks or runs for me to achieve my daily move goals as well.
About: As a former veterinary assistant with five years of hands-on experience, I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. My background has given me the skills to recognize changes in behavior, handle pets safely and confidently, and provide compassionate care—even for anxious or special-needs animals. You can trust that your pets will be treated like family, with plenty of love, patience, and attention on every walk. Currently I work full time but I’m looking for a side hustle. I’m open to checking in on your pets after 5pm Mon-Fri if needed and I’m off on weekends so I can be available all weekend. I provide reliable in-home pet care by following your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and keeping their living area clean while you’re away.
“Words cannot express how thankful and happy we are with Erica and the care she gave for our fur babies!!! We came home to not only happy pups, but she went above and beyond my expectations! Thank you for the beautiful photos and very sweet dog toys!!! You are amazing!!!”
“Jayna was fantastic with our 10-month-old boy! She’s wonderful with him. She was professional, communicative, followed our instructions carefully, and even went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable while we were away. Jayna is truly part of the family now, and our pup loves seeing her. Thank you for everything, Jayna — you’re the best!”
About: I absolutely love taking care of my dogs and I treat any pets just as I do my own. I was especially drawn to Rover after long-term dog sitting these 2 wonderful Dobermans, it made me want to create even more special bonds just like that. I am genuinely so happy spending time around animals… I have always taken up dog sitting opportunities for family or friends and now I would like to extend my love out to your pets as well!🩷🫂 I am dedicated to giving your pup the best care possible. I am super flexible and currently offering dog walking, drop in visits, and house sitting during the week and on weekends!! Check my calendar for specific availability. I am used to incorporating 1-3 dogs + a cat into a daily routine (for several years). I really enjoy long walks and playing outside or even napping with my dogs. I have unconditional love ready to give to any pet… you are doing me a favor by allowing me the opportunity to get to know and love your fur baby🥹🫶 I will always make sure that your pet and I are both respectful of house rules while still having fun. I do try to work on small behavioral training such as sit and stay on a daily basis. I will always be on top of it to make sure your dog stays on schedule and give endless cuddles so they stay happy as well.
About: I have grown up my whole life with dogs, and have raised my own for the last 15 years! I love animals of all kinds, and spend my free time bringing my dog wherever he can go- the beach, hikes, parks, you name it! I would treat your beloved fur babies the same way I treat mine. My dog also gets along great with other dogs, just happy to have someone to play with. My neighbors in my courtyard also all have dogs, and they often all play outside together. I am a teacher, so I get home before 4pm every day. My days are quick, and I'll be home with the dogs for hours on end. On the weekend, I will spend my time outside reading, while the dogs play and bask in the sun. I live in a new apartment building in El Cajon. Im a teacher so I’m home for the summer, and I love bringing them on long walks.
“Alanis took such great care of my anxious older cat. She followed all my instructions (even those super specific ones we all have for our unique pets?), and she was wonderfully communicative before, during, and after all of her check-ins. I arrived home to a very happy and content kitty who'd clearly had all her needs met while I was away. Thank you so much, Alanis!”
“I’m so happy we stumbled upon Narges profile. She was super communicative from the start. She happily hopped on a facetime with us so we could be crazy cat ladies and explain the idiosyncrasies of feeding our cats. Every text exchange felt like it was with a friend …She sent pictures of our cats to us which made us so happy on vacation. 10/10 recommend Narges! :)”

About: Hi, I'm Eda! I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My grandpa had a beautiful farm in Temecula, where I grew up helping care for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, ducks, and even one very mean buck. From an early age, I also looked after my neighbors' pets, and I loved every minute of it. My family is from Turkey, where there's a deep appreciation for animals, especially dogs and cats. In my culture, animals are considered part of the family, and that's exactly how I've always treated them. That mindset has stayed with me throughout my life. I'm the friend who always finds the pet at the party, stops to admire every dog on a walk (with permission, of course), and can't resist saying hello to my neighborhood cat. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet companion, I'll care for them with patience, attention, and lots of affection. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in kind, reliable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and work part-time from home. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the animals in my care, whether they need regular walks, playtime, feeding, enrichment, or simply some extra companionship throughout the day. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I work from home part-time, giving me flexibility to provide attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and crate preferences. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Calavo Gardens
Charlie did a fantastic job visiting our 10 year old Maine Coon. It was a last minute booking because we needed to do an unexpected overnighter for a family matter, and our regular Rover wasn't available. Charlie was very punctual, sent us photos, and even did a few minor chores for us while she was here. She's very personable and friendly. Everything was great when we got back. We would not hesitate to call on Charlie again.
This was our second time asking Sahba to take care of our cats, and once again she did an amazing job. Sahba asked questions whenever something came up, which gave us peace of mind. She also sent us lots of photos and videos of our cats while we were away. We felt completely comfortable leaving our home and our cats in her care. We highly recommend her!
I’m so happy we stumbled upon Narges profile. She was super communicative from the start. She happily hopped on a facetime with us so we could be crazy cat ladies and explain the idiosyncrasies of feeding our cats. Every text exchange felt like it was with a friend …She sent pictures of our cats to us which made us so happy on vacation. 10/10 recommend Narges! :)
Positively amazing! Met with me on short notice and took care of my pup later that same week. Good communication throughout and even went the extra mile to come back and let my dog go to the bathroom later in the evening at no extra charge! Would recommend 10/10 dog sitter! She is a life saver
Grace was absolutely amazing! She is so kind, warm, and easy to talk to. She was incredibly patient with my Mia, who can be a little anxious and scared around new people, but Mia really warmed up to her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Mia was happy, safe, and genuinely well cared for. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Calavo Gardens is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $27 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 8,915 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Calavo Gardens. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Calavo Gardens. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
