About: If you’re not covered in dog hair, your life is incomplete. Hi, I'm Analissa! I'm a dedicated and compassionate animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and farm animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free experience while your pets are in my care. I offer pet sitting, drop-in visits, and daytime care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, or simply companionship and a consistent routine, I tailor my care to their individual needs. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I prioritize communication by providing updates, photos, and prompt responses throughout every booking. I am also committed to continuing my education in animal care and I am CPR and Pet First Aid certified as of June 27, 2026 to further strengthening my ability to provide safe and responsible care for your pets. I proudly welcome all families and am LGBTQ+ friendly. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your pet's specific needs, please feel free to send me a direct message. I look forward to meeting you and your furry, feathered, or scaly family members! Caring for pets is a natural part of my routine. I keep my schedule open so I can be flexible and adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or extended care. I prioritize consistency, safety, and giving pets plenty of attention so owners can feel confident while they’re away. I care for pets by following their routine as closely as possible while maintaining a safe, calm, and clean environment. In my home or a client’s home, I start by reviewing feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and any behavioral notes provided by the owner.
“Kaitlyn and Jesse were absolutely wonderful!! They cared for our sweet dogs as if they were their own!! One of our adopted dogs has a hard history and Kaitlyn and Jesse were so good with him…he warmed up to them and trusted them over the course of the booking. They were so good at letting us know each day how our sweet dogs were doing and sent fun pictures!! We also live in the countryside and had a scare with some local fires. Kaitlyn and Jesse were quick to make contact with us and tentatively plan for how to keep our dogs safe! They are so kind and friendly!! We were so happy we got connected with them through Rover and will look forward to booking with them for future times!!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for many years and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine. I provide a safe, calm, family-oriented environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I will keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, and do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is for both you and your pet to have peace of mind. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and strive to make their stay feel like a second home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. For everyone’s safety, I only accept friendly, non-aggressive pets that are comfortable around children. I provide a clean, calm, family-oriented home where pets are treated like part of the family. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding, medication, exercise, and sleeping instructions to help keep your pet’s routine consistent. I supervise interactions, provide plenty of love and attention, and will send regular updates with photos during your pet’s stay. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about each pet’s personality, routines, and any special needs to ensure they’re a good fit for my home.
About: Although I do not have professional pet-sitting experience, I have cared for my own dog and nine cats for many years. I am comfortable feeding pets, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, providing exercise and playtime, and ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need. I am dependable, patient, and love working with animals. I work as a behavior technician on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the mornings. I am available for pet care visits in the afternoons and evenings on those days, all day on Saturdays, and Sunday mornings. I am not available on Tuesdays or Thursdays. I strive to provide dependable, consistent care and follow each pet’s regular routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and following the owner’s instructions. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication directions, exercise routines, and any special care needs. I respect your home and work to maintain your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you are away. My experience caring for my own dog and multiple cats has taught me to be attentive, patient, and responsive to each pet’s individual needs.
“Maureen is amazing! She drops in and checks on my Daisy girl. She is so flexible with her time as well.I definitely have peace of mind knowing that she is attentive to the dogs when she is at the house.”
About: Hello! I have years of experience with family and friends’ dogs, but mostly at an animal shelter ! I volunteered there for 2 years, walking, feeding, and cleaning up after different sized dogs. :) I now have a 7 year old husky named Khoda (in the picture!) that I rescued from the shelter 2 years ago. All I’ll say is huskies have lots of character, so I’m used to all of it ! Haha. With that said, I know how much energy (some) dogs can have. I would be happy to have a quick play session with your best friend ! I have also had a puppy and understand the attention it takes! I’m generally available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays and love helping pet parents with walks, drop-ins, and pet care during those days. Tuesdays and Fridays are usually dedicated to my regular work schedule, though there may occasionally be some flexibility depending on the week. If you have specific dates in mind, feel free to reach out—I’m always happy to check my availability and see how I can help! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. The safety and comfort of every pet in my care is my top priority. I will follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I am also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and receiving plenty of attention.
“Kelly was an excellent pet caregiver for my 4 dogs! She came over the week before I left to go over everything and took detailed notes. She communicated any questions she had and responded quickly if I had any questions. She offered and helped take my trash cans out for trash day. I would highly recommend Kelly and I will definitely use her again. Thank you Kelly!”
“Alexa is a great find! My scared kitty that rarely lets anyone see her let Alexa pet her every day we were away. Alexa followed directions perfectly and we were very pleased with her reliability. Thanks so much for taking the stress away so we could enjoy our vacation”
“Paula was absolutely amazing!!!! An angel for my family and I! It was the first time we ever used this app, and when I first met Paula I could tell how sweet she was and my dog right away liked her. She visited him three times a day, was so sweet and patient. Sent me videos, photos and updates each time. I could not recommend her more! I could tell that Matix was happy and loved her! He is older and very nervous around people but not with Paula! I loved her and had so much peace of mind! She even cleaned up all his poop in the yard. I couldn’t believe it! Thank you Paula! We will definitely rebook if she is willing! So so so very thankful to find her!”
“Air was available at the last minute; I booked her less than 48 hours before the first visit and she happily took the job. She showed up on time each day and provided pics as requested. Very happy with her.”
“This was our first time using Elaine and we (Cleo and us) are pleased to say it’s a win! She was here on schedule, and Cleo took to her right away so that’s the biggest thing for us. Happy to have her watching over Cleo while we are away, gives us piece of mind. Highly recommend her!”
“Kathleen has been really great with our two kitties. This was our second Rover booking with her, and she really gave our guys some extra TLC while we were traveling. We'll definitely book with her again!”
About: I will be the person you don’t have to worry about with your pet while you enjoy your time away. I know that feeling. I am big on communication. I also will take pictures and keep communication going as well. I am retired and have an open schedule so very flexible. I am also helpful with special needs. I take my own dog on walks, so routines are good. I have a fenced yard, and also will pet sit at your home. I have a huge doggie bed and your pet will have lots of love. I will make sure your pet has walks and any special needs.
“Saige did such a great job watching our cat Church! She kept us in the loop the entire time and even sent picture updates of Church. We felt we were in good hands with Saige the entire time and will definitely use her services again.”
About: I have had dogs of my own all my life. I’ve adored dogs of all sizes/colors since I was small. I understand the sacrifice and care that is required to care for your fur babies. And I will treat your dog as if they were my own, I assure you they will be in good hands if I am given the chance to do whatever you need whether it be dog sit or take your dog for a run or even just stop by and make sure that your dog has enough to eat and drink. I hope you consider me to be your pet sitter in the near future and I look forward to caring for your dog if you believe I am a good fit. I’m working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pups ! I am available both weekends and weekdays at most times. I am very diligent when it comes to pets schedules and will follow them to a T. I have two pups of my own and I understand how important it is to treat dogs with love and care.
About: I have had plenty of experience not only with my own pets, but with my neighbors who needed help with medication for their dogs and with helping out any friends in need in watching their new puppy and apartment! I love animals and this is more of a fun opportunity for me rather than me looking at it as a job! I am grateful for any chance I can get to help someone and to take care of an adorable pet!!! Pet care isn’t just a weekly routine, it’s apart of me everyday life. I always have my dog buddy with me at night and I try to take him out on fun trips like to get a pup cup or go on walks when I can and if not he just follows me around the house and we do everything together. Taking care of him isn’t a chore, it’s just taking care and hanging out with my bestfriend. I care for pets whether it’s giving them meds, taking them potty, whether it’s walking them or just playing with them or even giving them a bath. It’s never too much of a task to hangout with a pet, it’s something I look forward to!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Calimesa
This was my first time hiring a sitter because I’ve used kennels in the past but my cats need more interaction than the kennels provided and the emotional trauma of being away from home. I wasn’t sure what to expect with hiring a sitter, but Kelly was so absolutely incredible that there’s no doubt in my mind I’ll be hiring her over and over again. Her daily updates were always so thorough, she includes every little detail of her visit, and they’re so sweetly personal that I actually looked forward to reading them every day. Also, her photography was amazing. I know that sounds like a strange compliment, but if you book with Kelly you’ll see what I mean. Thank you again Kelly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Calimesa on Rover is $14.43 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,346 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Calimesa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Calimesa. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
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.
