“Rich was outstanding with our dog! This is the first time using Rover service . I was nervous but am so happy with how it went. Rich took extra time to allow Thor to warm up to him. He was very communicative with me & always sent photos. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats mutually coexisting, ever since I was little. I have worked with family and friends who are in need of pet care. I help with my mom’s art business from home. My weekdays and weekends are usually always open, which makes my schedule easy to work around. I will patiently work with your pets however needed, with whatever instructions are given. If a mess is made I will make sure your home stays clean.
“We have had Nadine come and watch our fur babies before and she was just as awesome this time! She sent photos of all 5 pets. They were all very happy! Nadine is a super star to our pet family and us”
“Heather is an excellent pet sitter and gives your fur babies the best care. I highly recommend her. I can’t say enough nice things about her. She has excellent communication while you are away too. You are in good hands with her!”
“Sofia is such a sweetheart and wonderful with my senior pup! She took the time to come meet Skippy a couple days prior to our booking and he immediately went right up to her which he’s usually reluctant to do. I’m very picky about who I have watch Skippy and I feel so safe and at ease when Sofia is taking care of him. I highly recommend Sofia!”
“Amy was amazing and I will definitely book with her again in the future! My dogs can be shy around new people and Amy really made the extra effort to make sure they were comfortable. She sent tons of photos and great updates throughout her visits.”

About: I’ve grown up with cats my whole life and I am also a big dog lover and have experience dogsitting and walking as well! I have also volunteered at pet shelters and love being able to help the pets and community. I just love animals and am so happy to take care of them 😁 I’m a college student on summer break and I am currently very open and available most days and weeks. I will keep my calendar updated with availability :) I am not able to offer pet boarding in my own home because of my cats but will happily watch your cats and dogs in your home. I will stay the night and perform all the care duties requested and spend some good time with your pets!
About: I've taken care of many dogs for my friends and family! They've relied on me to dogsit them overnight and care for them for many days! I work remotely so my schedule is pretty flexible and so I'll definitely have time to play with and care for your pets! Would love to keep your fur baby company! I live in a very pet friendly apartment complex with many pet owners. There’s large grass areas and lots of room to run and walk around. Can’t wait to explore the areas around you too!
About: I have been taking care of dogs from all various age ranges since I started dog sitting and walking at the age of twelve. While I don't have any professional training, I can easily connect with dogs on personal level because of my warm and friendly personality. I have two large dogs of my own and have an understanding of what it takes to care for bigger breed dogs. I love to spoil my own pets and will do the same for my current and future clients. I currently work as a teacher so I'm available to take care of a clients pet in the early mornings and anytime after 2PM. I'm more available on the weekends and will usually take the pet out for longer walks as my schedule permits. I have never taken care of another clients pet in my own home, I always get offered to stay in my clients homes. The clients always introduce me to the pet before I take the job, to make sure I will be a good fit and am trustworthy to be in their home. All clients I have house sat for, leave detailed written instructions as to what their pets daily needs and routine are. I make sure to follow all directions exactly how they are written and I keep the client up to date on how the animal is doing plus I send check in pictures whether they are requested or not.
About: I’ve had 3 years of dog sitting and dog walking all different types of breeds of dogs from as small wiener dogs to as big as a Great Dane. That’s not including all the years of caring for my own animals from horses, kittens, chickens to even piglets. I’m a stay at him mom so Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, including feeding, walking, and playing with my furry friend. Weekly tasks include grooming, vet visits, and stocking up on supplies. Depending on your animals temperament I make sure I do all I can do to make sure all pets are it in their most comfortable environment.
About: As an owner of two large dogs myself I understand how difficult it is to leave them alone. I’m here to help keep them loved on, exercised, and busy during whatever takes you away from home! As a work from home dog parent I have plenty of time to stop by and take care of your dog or cat! We are a dog park family and enjoy long walks Currently not offering in home care but always willing to come help another dog/cat parent out! During the stay the dogs are monitored and during any stay in another persons home we are always respectful

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fountain Valley
Samantha was very professional and thoughtful throughout the entire process. She responded promptly to the booking request and was highly communicative as we set up the meet and greet as well as the drop in visits. Samantha took excellent care of the kitties, who were happy and relaxed around her. We are so glad we connected with Samantha!
This was our first time booking a cat sitter through Rover, and Andrea made everything very easy for us. She was reliable and followed our instructions well. She sent us pictures during her check-in with our pet. We will definitely be rebooking Andrea in the future!
Amy went above and beyond for my senior cat. I reached out to her just hours before I had to leave for a last minute trip and she responded immediately. Throughout her care I received tons of pictures and videos. He was so happy and well cared for on my return. Such a great sitter and clearly cares about the pets she takes care of.
Sarah has been an amazing sitter for us! She's been flexible and accommodating to our cats as well our sitting needs. We looked forward to her wonderful drop in updates every day we were gone. She was even able to coax one of our more shy cats out of hiding for some pets! Highly recommend Sarah for your pet sitting needs!
Heather checked in on my kitties over my 4 day vacation and I could not be happier with how she took care of them. She was great with communication throughout and shared great photos/overview of each visit. Her experience with animals definitely shows in her interactions with pets and I feel truly at ease knowing my kitties are in great hands with her. :)
Nadine did a wonderful job dropping in to care for our pets while we were away on vacation. She fed our dogs and cat and administered medications they need. Our dogs loved going for walks with her each visit, and we really appreciated getting her updates (with photos). We were able to enjoy our time away knowing that our pets were in great hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fountain Valley on Rover is $22.2 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 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 .

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.

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.
