William went above and beyond caring for my dogs. I have two high energy large breed dogs, a German shepherd and a Labrador retriever. William handled them very well, my dogs love him and I can tell he really cares about them when he’s baby sitting them. He sends me pictures and communicates about their visit. He is very trustworthy, made sure my dogs were safe and comfortable and made me feel very comfortable leaving them under his care. I am very glad to have found him and will definitely be hiring him again!

Paige was great! We came to San Diego with our pups on a trip and wanted to spend extra time away from our airbnb. She gave them some company and let them out. She sent me pictures while she was there and made us feel comfortable being away from our babies longer. Thank you!!

About: I have no specific pet care experience but I have had many dogs, cats, reptiles since I was young. I have an incredible love for life which extends to animals highly. I work as an independent contractor so I have a completely open schedule and love being around animals note than humans at times. I have a natural warmth that almost all animals can sense and immediately create lifelong friendships. Always positive and plan to give your pets the most exemplary sitting experience known to man. I am willing to study or brush up on specific requirements depending on the animals in my care. I am very active and love to run. So I can run with your dogs or walk them, whichever you prefer. Also have tons of energy to play and make them sleepy and relaxed. Currently I work as an independent contractor building a financial brokerage and do Lyft on the side in my free time. So my schedule is my own and would love to find regular clients who have pets that would want some love and attention when their owners have work or trips that they can’t bring them along for. My roommate has own dog personally who I always look out for and make sure he is taken care of with water and food if necessary. HI’s girlfriend who lives here with us as well has two smaller dogs and two cats as well that I make sure are all in well standard of living when I am home and notice they need something. Both of them are great pet owners but life can be busy so I’m always there making sure they get anything that might go unnoticed at times. We have a large fenced in backyard where all the dogs can play and run around as well as use the restroom at will. I also take them on walks if my roommate does not have time with his mobile mechanic business.

About: I’ve had pets and taken care of them since I was a kid. Whenever I’ve had pets I always have treated them like if they were my babies and I don’t just care them as animals. I love treating them really good and making them happy. I currently working every day except Thursdays and Fridays. I always get out as 6 and I don’t have a lot of daily after work activities so I just spent a lot of time at home with my own fur baby. I have a cat of my own and he’s very playful so he would make sure your own fur baby is never feeling alone and has fun playing with him. I have various space for playtime.

About: Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a stay at home mom providing a safe, comfortable, and attentive home environment for dogs while their families are away. Our home is set up with dogs in mind, including a large, fully enclosed backyard where they can get fresh air, play, and explore safely. We also have Luna, our friendly 7 year old dog, who enjoys the company of other dogs and can provide companionship for pups who are comfortable around other dogs. I’ve had dogs most of my life and have experience caring for dogs through all stages of life. I previously had my dog Cal from puppyhood through his battle with cancer, which taught me the importance of patience, medication management, special care, and paying attention to each dog’s individual needs. Because I’m home full time, your dog will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and won’t be left alone for long periods. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’ll work to keep them comfortable by following their normal schedule and preferences. Whether your dog loves playing in the yard, going on walks, relaxing at home, or simply having someone nearby, I’d love the opportunity to care for them. I’ll treat your pet like they are part of our family while making sure you receive updates and feel confident they are safe and happy.

About: Hello! I’m Raquel, the pet Nanny! I have been so lucky to have been a Pet Nanny to so many Furry Friends! I can’t wait to keep extending the fur family! I am available for both Dog walking and drop in visits depending on your pet's needs. About Me: I have been in the animal care field sense 2004. But have been an avid pet lover and equestrian my whole life! I started my animal career being a pet sitter/walker and then started working in the boarding kennel (assistant manager) and then become a Vet tech! For fun I like to competition train my dogs with my husband and do various dog sports with them! I’m also an AKC canine good citizen evaluator! I am fully trained vet tech and skilled in recognizing and handling emergency situations when it comes to your pets. Commutation is #1 in my book. I believe that it is absolutely necessary in order to provide excellent customer service. Throughout their stay, I will make sure to send you pictures and keep you updated on how your pet is doing. With commutation being my #1 goal owner can have peace of mind while they are way and letting their furry baby live their best life! Why I love Pet sitting: I have always been an animal lover and have even made a career out of it! Being a house sitter is one of my favorite parts of being a pet sitter because it allows pets to feel more at ease, have less separation anxiety, and feel comfortable sticking to their normal routine. You'll come home to the happy and healthy pets you had when you left! My experience administering medication * Giving your pet oral medications (pills or liquid) * Giving injections - SQ fluids, Insulin, ect. * Applying medications in your dogs eyes and ears * Applying topical medications, flush and cleaning wounds * Recognizing, Understanding, and Handling Emergency situations Caring for pets is what I do full-time! As a bonded and insured professional pet sitter, my days revolve around caring for dogs and cats. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, medications, or overnight stays, your pets receive my full attention and personalized care while you're away. I truly treat every pet like they're part of my own family. I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes through dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I believe pets are happiest and least stressed when they can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. During each visit, I follow your pet's personalized care instructions, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, litter box or yard cleanup, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of affection. My dog walks are one-on-one, allowing me to give each dog my full attention while keeping them safe and engaged. For overnight stays, I maintain your pet's daily routine from evening through morning, providing companionship, regular potty breaks, meals, medications, and lots of love while you're away. After every visit, I send detailed updates with photos so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind. As a bonded and insured professional with years of veterinary experience, I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and respect I would give my own.

About: I am a Dog lover!!! I have experience with my dogs, and I take care of my friends and family dogs when they go out or travel. I would treat your baby like it was mine. Also I would send you an upgrade and pictures so you can see how much fun your dog is having. I think dogs are the best gift a human can have, and that is why they deserve the best care, attention, and Love!! I can provide that to your dog. Sometimes can be overwhelming for them to spend so much hours alone, without attention or without playing, so I would love to be part of that happiness, to take them for a run or walk, go visit them, pet him and play with him. Dogs are our best friends in life, so they deserve to have always the best!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Emerald Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Emerald Hills on Rover is $26.75 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 4,012 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Emerald Hills. 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 Emerald Hills. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
