About: Hello ! I have professional experience working with dogs as a former Jr dog groomer and currently have two dogs of my own. I also have experience with puppies, adults, and senior dogs as well as basic training and knowledge of overall health due to personal experiences. I currently am not working right now so my schedule is pretty flexible so I’m able to attend, play, and spend time with your fur baby(s) 🐶🐱 I am very good at following directions so if you have a specific instruction on how you’d like me to take care of your baby, I’ll do exactly as I am told.

We would give 10 stars if I could! Our Annalie & Thi Ctook care of our two puppies for an entire week, and we couldn’t be more impressed. She was always on schedule, right on time, and kept everything running smoothly while we were away. When we got home, our dogs were in excellent condition—happy, well-adjusted, and clearly very well cared for. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and it shows in the way she treats the dogs. Don’t waste your time with anyone else—she is absolutely worth every penny. Highly, highly recommend!

About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have been trusted with my family’s, neighbors and friends pets since I was a child. I have experience with big dogs, small dogs as well as senior and disabled dogs. My schedule is pretty flexible. I currently work part-time and primarily at nights, so day-time and morning are relatively free for me during the week. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they will be treated as if they were my own. I understand how much your fur babies mean to you and my care reflects it. I am reliable, have a deep sense of responsibility as well as excellent communication skills. I am here to ensure your pets receive the care and attention that they deserve.

About: I’ve had the fun of having had a variety of pets over the years. And lots of interesting experiences with puppy and kitten litters. Playful pets and those who love to run around or just loungers will have plenty of room to do that at my house, inside and out. Whether your pet likes to cuddle or is aloof he/she will receive lots of love and attention. I know leaving a pet for any length of time can be stressful. That’s why I started Caring for pets in my home. The family can know their “Special friend”is well cared for while they are away. Our pets are very special and that is how I treat them. It’s exciting to meet new pets (plus their family) and get to know them. I know I can provide a safe and loving environment for your special friend. My husband and I are retired. This allows for ample time to get to know and care for your pet. Playing fetch or just relaxing together at your pet’s own pace. My yard is fenced and rather large. Plenty of space to run, roam, sniff around explore. The patio is covered and there are trees to provide plenty of shade.

About: I currently work at a grooming salon and love working with dogs!! I have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors and have a special place in my heart for the seniors ❤️ I have potty trained the puppies while babysitting them. I have experience ministering medications to the dogs, as well as insulin. I am working part time currently so I have times in the early afternoon after work and all night to come life on your babies: I’d love to also help take care of your babies over night and before work. I have a fenced yard with a very friendly dog for your babies to play with. Finn loves having friends over and loves to “help” me dogsit. When with a front and back yard, I still provide walks atleast 2d a day.

About: My skills are only taking the dogs a bath and taking them on walks, and I play with them as well I give all my attention to them. I start my morning early and that’s when I start my walking, then I come back and have my breakfast, so I will have plenty of time to care for a dog. The care I would give is just giving them attention and making sure their area is always cleaned. Taking them on walks and playing with them!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 20 years, with 10+ years dedicated specifically to dogs. From tiny Chihuahuas to large, strong German Shepherds, I’ve worked with breeds of all sizes and temperaments. I’m also a lifelong cat owner and have cared for cats with a wide range of personalities, from playful and social to shy and reserved. I understand that each pet is unique, with their own quirks, needs, and routines, and I make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. Animals seem to sense my genuine affection right away, and most warm up to me quickly. I bring calm yet positive energy that helps even timid pets feel at ease. I treat every pet like my own, offering attentive, protective, and responsible care. Whether it’s providing enriching playtime, keeping up with special diets, or just offering extra cuddles, I go above and beyond to make sure your furry family member feels happy and secure while you’re away. As a music teacher, I currently work only three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to devote to pet care. From Wednesday through Saturday, I have ample time and energy to focus on your pet’s needs whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. My schedule allows me to give your furry friend the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. I primarily provide care in my client’s home, where pets can stay in their familiar environment and feel most comfortable. This helps reduce stress and maintain their normal routines. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules to playtime and exercise, and always give extra love and attention. In certain cases, I can also care for pets in my own home, especially small dogs or cats. In my home, they will have a safe, clean, and comfortable space, along with plenty of affection, supervision, and enrichment.

About: Hi! I’m a current veterinary student and lifelong animal lover with professional experience in veterinary medicine since 2019. Over the years, I’ve worked in several vet med roles and gained experience handling pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve also fostered animals and volunteered at local shelters, which has strengthened my passion for providing patient, compassionate care to every animal I meet. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. With my veterinary background, you can feel confident knowing your pet is in knowledgeable and caring hands! I’m completing a few externships this summer, but otherwise I’m available most days and have a flexible schedule until I return to school in mid-August. I’ll care for your pet in your home by following their regular routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 19 years and understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, including administering medications, following special feeding instructions, and providing extra patience and attention for older dogs. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pet. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I'll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm attentive to details, reliable with communication, and happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I currently have a flexible part time job that allows me the freedom to care for your pet on my off days! My job fluctuates weekly but is flexible on requesting days off so I could easily work around that to ensure I have time to spend with your furry kids! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize safety, patience, and kindness at all times. I’m attentive to routines, comfortable administering medications if needed, and happy to provide updates and photos throughout each visit. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free. I have a fenced yard but also would be able to take them on walks as needed.

Sofia took wonderful care of our dog, August, while we were away for three days. She was responsible, punctual, and amazing with our anxious pup, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated and was always quick to respond. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We can’t wait to book with Sofia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

About: I have a large dog of my own for reference he’s a german shepherd, pitbull, mastiff mix. He is a big boy as you can imagine and I have had him for 9 years and know how to handle dogs from small to big. I am not scared of dogs in the slightest and can handle large dogs on walks. I work part time as a server so I have plenty of extra time on my hands. I love to get out and be active and what better way then to walk pets in the mean time. My dog has his own fenced yard to get activity in but we also take him on morning and nightly walks. He gets enrichment all the time but his favorite is to take a long nap which fits him well since his name is spud like a potato.

This was my first time using rover and honestly I was super nervous. Those nerves went away so fast with Andrea. She asked a ton of follow up questions when meeting my cats to ensure she would be able to take care of them properly. That really eased my mind when I was leaving. During my trip she sent constant updates and pictures of the state of the kitties and my apartment. I was able rest easy knowing my cats and my apartment were in amazing shape. I am so incredibly grateful for Andrea's communication and care skills. If you need someone to take care of your pets with the same care you do Andrea will do just that

I very pleased with Elizabeth’s kindness and attentiveness! I am beyond neurotic when it comes to my fur babies lol and I have incredibly high expectation of their care and safety - They are my children. I found Elizabeth’s profile and although it’s always nerve wracking to entrust someone with your “kids” you just met, I had a good feeling about her in our messages. we arranged a meet and greet prior to our first Christmas Day evening visit and she was just wonderful. She listened closely to their routine at our meet and greet, and was very sweet and personable. She sent many photos during their Christmas Day visit which is always appreciated; She coaxed our pup who is a picky eater to eat more of his dinner which was a win and our very shy young cat even came out to say hi to her which never happens! I had notated in their care notes to stay in well lit areas on the walk with our pup due to coyotes and I could tell from the photos and map in rover she did exactly that- It means the world that she paid attention and customized their visit with our requests. I can tell She has a kind heart for animals and I am grateful we found her. We came home that night to two happy, well fed and content babies- already planning their next visit with her in January. Thank you Elizabeth!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Garden Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Garden Grove on Rover is $27.75 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 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 July 2026, there are 15,188 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Garden Grove. 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 Garden Grove 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 Garden Grove. On Rover:

  • 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 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.
