About: Hi! I’m Bree. I’ve always had animals in my life, and I genuinely love being around them. I currently have two cats of my own, and I’ve lived with several roommates’ dogs over the years, which means I’ve spent a lot of time caring for different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve learned how to read their moods, understand their needs, and make them feel comfortable and safe. I also have a close friend who is a professional pet trainer, and I often ask them for advice whenever I want to make sure I’m doing what’s best for the pets I care for. Because of that, I get the benefit of expert insight along with real-world, hands-on experience. My approach is simple: I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own. I’ll talk to them, I’ll be patient with them, I’ll respect their boundaries, and I’ll make sure they feel loved and listened to. Whether it’s a gentle walk, a playful outing, or some quiet company at home, I’ll show up for them every single time. I work part time and go to school part time so I have mornings & afternoons free Monday-Thursday and after that I do attend school from 5pm-10pm those days. I work 4-10pm on Fridays -Sundays and I am available before and after those hours. I can follow any instructions needed to optimize care for your fur family. I will make sure all doors and cabinets to places they shouldn’t be in are secured and they are always safe.
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have always been comfortable caring for animals. I’m familiar with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m new to professional pet sitting, but I’m dependable, patient, and happy to follow each pet’s specific routine and care instructions. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate house sitting, daytime visits, walks, and varying pet-care routines. On weekdays, I do school drop-off in the morning and school pickup between about 3:00 and 4:00 PM, so I may be briefly unavailable during those windows. Outside of that, I have plenty of flexibility for pet care, visits, walks, and overnight stays. I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for pets in a client’s home. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, crate, and household instructions, and I’m mindful about keeping doors, gates, and leashes secure. I also respect each client’s home and privacy and will treat their space with care. I’m happy to send regular photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: My Animals have been my life from an early age! All Furry Friend's receive the utmost Secure Care, Love and Affection Given with Pure Joy. Friends and Family rely on me for safe, worry free care for their Furry Babies while they are away. Your pet is my entire focus on Monday through Sunday, full time. It is my joy to be available morning and night! Their safety and comfort is my priority. I have a very Pet Friendly Home with everything needed for your pet's care and safety, with a large fenced in safe and secure back yard.
“If we could give a 6 star review we would! She is awesome. And Max is in love with his new Aunty. Sheryl communicates multiple time daily with photos and updates. When we returned Max was calm and looked well taken care of. Thanks Cheryl for looking after him!”
“Emma is so wonderful!! I don’t trust many people with my puppy but I would pick her over and over to watch him. She is thoughtful and attentive and gives many updates on how my puppy is doing! I cannot say enough good things about Emma! We love her!!!”
About: Apart from always caring for my own dogs, I have loved walking my old neighbors pups as well. I am average build but strong for my size so I can handle the tugs from the bigger dogs like husky’s. I have an almost 3 month old who I stay home with so I am available for around the clock care for pups, children, or any elders who need assistance. Me and my baby would love to have your fur baby join our walks and play time! When boarding at my home, all we ask is to please bring your pup washed, thank you! p.s. tips are never expected but alwaysss appreciated;) I am a stay at home mom to a very chill and quiet baby. Our days consist of his nap times, sitting on our enclosed balcony, and going on long walks. We live in a condo with a balcony that has no escape route, and a medium size patio/backyard. It does not have grass but we have a 47x32in. artificial grass mat for potty breaks. The condo has stairs as well.
“Alexis was great with our dog. Brie was extremely excited to see her again! She took excellent care of Brie and understood her needs for walking and car rides! Our house was clean upon our arrival home, too. Highly recommend Alexis!”
“Janet did a great job as our house sitter for the weekend. When we returned from our trip, our dogs were so happy to see us, but I could tell that they were occupied and cared for while we were away. The way they acted, it felt like they had a small vacation, too, and that is more than what I was expecting. I would definitely recommend her for any services.”
About: I grew up with dogs (2 poodles and a golden doodle!) and a cat (Siberian) and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for years through friends, family, and neighbors, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality. I provide dependable, high-quality care tailored to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s long walks, structured routines, or extra attention for anxious or senior pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work remotely so I have a very flexible schedule to take care of your pets! I am available for walks and care whenever needed. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and comfort level. I aim to keep your pet’s environment as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions closely, while keeping your home clean, secure, and respected. I’m very communicative and provide updates as frequently as you would like.
“Camille has watched Cookie and Snickers multiple times and we couldn't be happier! They LOVE Camille's visits, which put us at ease having to be away. When we leave the dogs with Camille we're 100% confident that they are being loved and cared for. And we love all the pictures and videos that are sent to us showing their fun times. Camille is the best!”
“Louie and Emily had a good day together. I really appreciated the frequent updates and felt very comfortable leaving him for a long day. Emily is very knowledgeable about aging dogs and showed him only kindness and belly rubs.”
“Mandi saved the day! After another person cancelled on us last minute, Mandi jumped in! She was very punctual to both the meet n greet and overnight stay. She followed all of instructions and was easy to communicate with. The girls enjoyed her… we could see that through the pics she sent. Thank you Mandi!”

Debi was absolutely wonderful! She was extremely professional, trustworthy, and went above and beyond. Chloe absolutely adored her, and even our neighbors had nothing but wonderful things to say about her! We felt completely comfortable knowing Chloe and our home were in such great hands. We would absolutely recommend Debi and would love to have her sit for us again!
Stephanie took care of our very high energy dog, overweight cat and house including watering yard and greenhouse. She did an excellent day and kept us updated but did not send unimportant notices. We recommend her if you are looking for services in the Graeagle / Portola area. No hesitation to use her in the future!
Juliette was absolutely amazing! She's so kind and considerate of my animals! My dog has really bad separation anxiety and she really helped him through me leaving for the work day! She loved on my cats as well and treated them as her own! She was so good about potty breaks, feeding time, taking pictures, keeping me updated and just overall very responsive and just so kind! I definitely recommend her to anyone who needs their fur babies watched or checked in on! Absolutely loved having her stay with my babies and plan to utilize her services in the future!
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Isabelle! She stayed overnight in our home and cared for our three dogs for nearly two weeks, and from the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. Isabelle was incredibly responsive and kept us updated throughout our trip, regularly sending photos and letting us know how the dogs were doing. Our dogs also require medications, and she had absolutely no problem administering everything as needed. At one point, one of our dogs had an unexpected emergency, and Isabelle handled the situation like a total professional. She was responsible, caring, attentive, and genuinely wonderful with our dogs. It’s clear that she truly loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. We are so thankful to Isabelle for taking such great care of our dogs. Highly recommend her!
Emily is the best! She was very kind and understanding with both our dog Ender (who loved her) and me (not very organized). It was an absolute pleasure to relax knowing she had everything under control - walks, food, play time, snacks. She's very conscientious and trustworthy. She communicated as much as we wanted and sent pics. Overall Emily is a beautiful soul I would count myself lucky to be able to book again.
We are so grateful to have found Cheryl. She took wonderful care of our pet family, and was communicative and attentive while we were away. She took the time to understand the “ecosystem” of our home, and each animal within it. We look forward to working with Cheryl again soon!
Summer was absolutely fantastic! I was apprehensive about finding a new dog sitter, but she made those concerns melt away almost immediately. She was warm, attentive, dependable, and clearly cared about making sure my dogs felt comfortable and well taken care of. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire stay, and she provided updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. It was obvious that my dogs were happy, relaxed, and in great hands. I would highly recommend Summer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. I will absolutely be booking with her again!
Hannah was great with both our dog and cat! They both got lots of love and attention. We felt very comfortable leaving our pets in her care, and came home to our house looking exactly as we left it. We would definitely book her again for house and pet sitting.

FAQs for House Sitting - Capistrano Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Capistrano Beach on Rover is $69.93 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,511 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Capistrano Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Capistrano Beach walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Capistrano Beach maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Capistrano Beach choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
