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!!

Jazmin is amazing. She had excellent communication before and after visits with my kitty. She took photos and wrote the most detailed and sweet notes after each stay. I knew my kitty was safe in her care which gives me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future! Thanks so much!

We used Emily for a daily drop in for our cat while we were in Hawaii. We were temporarily staying in an RV park in Chula Vista and she was very accommodating. She was great with our kitty and gave her lots of love and affection. She sent lots of pictures every day which we really loved. We highly recommend Emily and would use her again in a heartbeat!

About: I have grown up with dogs in my household all my life and love all animals. I have my own rescue mutt and extensive experience working with all types of dogs. I would love to help out any families and make sure your animals are taken care of and comfortable! I work for the schools and I’m on summer break now and would love to help look after your pet. I have my own car so transportation will not be an issue. I have 1 dog and take her on multiple walks a day, to parks, beaches, and out on various outings. I am a very flexible person who wants to make sure your animals are comfortable and getting the attention they need. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, hikes, going to parks, being outside, and giving them cuddles.

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: 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: 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!

About: I have always loved animals and currently have a pug named Finn, who is a huge part of my life. I previously had two dogs and have had many other pets throughout the years as well. I have some experience pet sitting for friends and family and have also fostered three dogs in the past. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I am reliable, responsible, and will care for your pets as if they were my own. My schedule is very flexible at the moment, and for the next few weeks I am available every day before I leave for travel and my upcoming move. I am happy to work with your schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including drop-in visits and walks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions carefully and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and make the experience as stress-free as possible for both pets and their owners.

I’m so glad Stass and I found Christine! She is so sweet, detailed and communicative. I travel a lot for work, and it brings me such peace of mind to know that Stassi is in great hands while I’m away. I am so grateful for the care and consistent updates she always provides. I 100% recommend her and have even asked to be a recurring client of hers! Thank you so much Christine!

Sara is the best of the best. She was the first person to ever watch our cats and now we feel very comfortable going on trips and having her watch our babies. Our cats LOVE Sara and they have so much fun when she’s there. Sara goes above and beyond with their care. She knows exactly what they need with their feeding schedules, routines, playtime, and giving them much needed attention and cuddles while we’re gone. Sara has excellent communication skills and responds very quickly. What I love is that she takes so many pictures during each visit and writes a very long and detailed note of how the visit went. I could not recommend her enough and will definitely book with her again!

Joanne was a huge help when she came to check in on my dog while my family was at Disneyland. Even though it was a relatively late booking, she still went above and beyond to accommodate our requests. She came to check on him twice throughout the day and even sent me photos from their time together! I can't recommend her enough!

First time Brittany did a drop in for us for our 2 doggies who are very protective and take a while to warm up. Brittany even did a meet and greet prior which was super helpful so she could meet us and the dogs and feel everything out. Brittany’s communication and care is top notch and is truly appreciated.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Emerald Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Emerald Hills on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 9,094 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Emerald Hills. 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 Emerald Hills 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.

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
  • 95% 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.

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.
