About: Hi there, I'm Alisa. Currently booking for the holidays. I'm new here, but not new to pet and house sitting. I have perfect reviews on Trusted Housesitters giving overnight care to over 18 dogs and cats (plus chickens and reptiles!). I've also watched 8 different animals for repeat sits from word of mouth. I'm offering a lower rate because I'm new here and want to gain your trust. I love animals and I know they feel calm around me. While I make them feel loved and comfortable, I also take my pet care very seriously and always make sure their walk, exercise, and feeding schedule is exactly how the owner asks. I also send updates and glamour shots of the animals ;) Hope to hear from you! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can work with your schedule and stay at your home. I'm also available for several drop in's or walks a day. I take pet-sitting very seriously and make sure I do everything the owner/client asks for. Making sure the animals get the perfect amount of exercise/play and of course meals at the designated times and lots of love!

About: I have many years of experience with dogs & cats of all sizes. I am very skilled at reading an animal’s comfort level & energy. I would love to help look after your pets! I take some classes at the local college, but otherwise I work from home so I have a good deal of flexibility. I would love to pop in on your pets & take care of them! I am currently only offering drop-ins & walks because I have two cats of my own at my home that I don’t want to stress out as they are skittish. I am happy to take your dogs for walks as well as visiting your place to spend some time cuddling, feeding, and caring for all your pets.

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud cat parent to two cats of my own. Over the past several years, I've helped care for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors, including feeding, walking, playtime, and companionship. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and independent, I'll provide patient, attentive care tailored to their needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always provide photo updates so you can feel confident they're happy, safe, and well cared for!!! Message me your cuties! I would love to meet you and your loves! Pet care is already part of my daily routine since I have two cats of my own. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, evening, and weekend visits. I make time every day to provide reliable care, exercise, playtime, and companionship for pets. I always communicate clearly with pet parents and provide photo updates during visits. Message me if you have any special requests. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions before providing care. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to their needs and surroundings to ensure a safe and positive experience. I treat every pet as if they were my own and keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.

About: I’ve cared for dogs belonging to family and friends since I was 15. I work from home, so your pet will receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m organized, dependable, and genuinely love animals. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, keeping them active, and following the routine they are most comfortable with. My husband and I also have a friendly dog named Sol, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My husband and I both work from home, so someone is usually available to give your pet attention throughout the day. I occasionally have field visits, but I create my own schedule and offer flexible weekday availability based on your pet’s needs. We have a fully fenced, private yard where dogs can enjoy supervised playtime and potty breaks. Pets are never left outside unattended. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and maintain their dog’s regular feeding, walking, and sleeping routine.

We loved seeing all of the photos and videos of them playing and it was so comforting knowing they were so well taken care of, played with, loved on and cleaned up after!

“Lyndsay is so fantastic! She was able to stop in to check on my pets. My dog takes some time to warm up to people, and Lyndsay gave him the time and space he needed to get comfortable with her. She made sure he ate, got to go outside, and sent pictures and updates and followed his routine perfectly! My very shy cat even came out of hiding to say hello too - highly recommend and would absolutely have Lyndsay watch my pets again!”

“I'll start with a big WOWZA! My little Lemon tend to be pretty shy, but she immediately took to Morgan in a way that I seldom see her interact with people she's just met! I was out of town for five days, but I did not worry about my babe once. Morgan sent photos and videos every time she visited Lemon, and I could feel her warm heart radiating through each message. I love my girl, but it's always so heartwarming to see someone else love and care for my girl. I will definitely return to Morgan the next time I am going out of town. Lemon demands it because she just LOVES HER!!!! 10/10 A++++!!!”

About: All times there has been a dog in my household. I have easily made connections with different dogs throughout my life, even if it was a short-term foster dog. Taking frequent walks, eating on time, playing, and snuggling. Fully available 24/7 to watch and take care of your pet, I attend school online from home. I am very active and like to be outside. I would protect and make sure your pet has everything they need. I will make sure there is nothing your pet can get into that is dangerous or harmful to them.

About: I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs, and have 2+ experience petsitting dogs with special needs. I'm the mom of two whites tree frogs, so I'm also well versed with reptiles and other exotic pets! I'm comfortable with all sorts of critters, not just fur-babies! Reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and arachnids are all included and well loved in my care. I work part time, usually nights, and take classes during the week day. Friday-Sunday I am almost always free full time to watch your pet. If care is needed weekday, depending on how much time is required, I can visit before, after, and between classes to feed, check in, and let out for the bathroom. I'm well experienced with feeding schedules, administering medication, potty breaks/cleaning litter boxes, and keeping spaces clean and tidy! I strive to leave homes I visit better than I found it. I'm also known for taking lots of silly pictures of your pet to send alongside daily updates.

Amber is amazing. She was very attentive during the meet and greet and paid close attention to all the extra details when it comes to walking our two seniors pugs, one of whom is blind. On the day of the actual walk, she was punctual and communicative. Both pugs seemed very happy and well fed when we got home. Thanks, Amber!

I’m so grateful to her for taking care of my two cats for almost a month while I was away. When I came home, both cats were happy, calm, and doing just as well as they normally do, which gave me such peace of mind. She also handled an unexpected accident when one of my cats vomited a hairball on the bed blanket, and she took care of it without any hesitation. She was always kind, dependable, and very accommodating whenever I had a special request. I truly appreciate all the care and attention she gave to my cats. I would absolutely book her again the next time I need a cat sitter. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my cats! ❤️🐱🐱

Kristina is very patient and loving with our senior once feral cat. Scamper is very wary of people and slow to trust. However, Kristina never gives up on trying to make that connection with Scamper. Scamper was born on Mother’s Day in our backyard. She has just started trusting us enough to come into the house in the last two years. Kristina works with Scamper to build the trust between them. She is soft spoken and takes her time with Scamper. I trust that she will do the very best for Scamper. I appreciate her so much!

Emily was wonderful from the very first meet and greet. Loki and Freya loved her immediately, and that set the tone for the whole stay. She sent the most beautiful photos of my cats, and you could tell they were genuinely happy and well cared for. She fed them exactly the way they like, including their toppers and spent so much time playing with them. Loki and Freya were playing, relaxed, and even showing affection to each other. That meant a lot. I felt completely at ease leaving them with her. Highly recommend Emily if you want someone kind, attentive, and truly great with cats

Dhalia was an absolute dream to work with! I was a bit nervous because I had never used a drop in service before but Dhalia’s professionalism and willingness calmed my nerves. I felt safe with her in the AirBnB with all the unexpected dog activity near Biscuit. Biscuit isn’t a cuddler in general and to hear that she felt comfortable enough to hang as such with Dhalia was a testament to how well she was with anxious pets. I LOVED her report card they were so detailed and all the pictures and videos of her wiggly little butt were soooo awesome. If I am ever in the area again with Biscuit I will 💯 will be using her again!

Very happy with Tonia's care of my somewhat cantankerous orange tabby. Drop in photos were provided daily with some of the best pics ever! Communication about visits was timely and very thorough. I really appreciate the details she provided about how my cat behaved during each visit. Tonia is patient and calm and developed a rapport with my pet at his own pace. I returned home to a very calm cat with no drama or isolating behaviors. This tells me he trusted Tonia and liked her care for him.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fullerton on Rover is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $39 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 20,013 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fullerton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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.

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
