About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for most of my life, but I have especially strong experience with dogs and daily dog care. Growing up, I helped care for a German Shepherd named Kobe, who was part of my family for many years. From that, I learned how to handle larger dogs, stay calm and in control on walks, and work with dogs that can be reactive or easily overstimulated. I’m comfortable with regular walks, feeding routines, playtime, and sticking to whatever structure a dog is used to. I pay close attention to my surroundings on walks and always prioritize safety, especially when walking dogs that may be nervous around other dogs or people. I understand that every dog has a different personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes them comfortable. I also have a lot of experience caring for cats, including fostering kittens and living in a multi-cat household, which has made me very attentive, reliable, and detail-oriented. Overall, I take pet care seriously and treat every animal like my own. I always aim to provide dependable, low-stress care so pet parents feel comfortable and confident while they’re away. I’m currently in school during weekday mornings into the evening (8am-4pm). Tuesday and Thursday I am more flexible as I only have one class in the morning so I am free after 12pm! I’m also available during the weekends day and night. This allows me to be flexible with dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet care while still giving each pet my full attention. I plan my schedule carefully and make sure I’m on time, responsive, and consistent with every visit. So please contact me if you are looking to book at least a day before. If you need me immediately I can try accommodate please reach out I will do my best! I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I always follow instructions closely, including feeding schedules, leash preferences, and any special care needs. On walks, I stay alert to my surroundings and use secure leashes and harnesses as instructed. I keep pets in clean, calm environments and make sure doors, gates, and supplies are secure. I respect clients’ homes, provide updates when requested, and treat every pet with patience and care so they feel safe and relaxed.

About: With deep love for animals and years of experience from my very own pets, I provide dedicated, attentive care tailored to each pet's unique routine. I am well versed in managing different life stages and behaviors, from high energy puppies to senior dogs needing a gentle touch. Whether it is maintaining a strict feeding schedule, reinforcing basic commands, or ensuring your dog gets plenty of physical and mental exercise, I treat every pet with the same patience and affection as if they were my own. I currently take online classes at home as a student so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have plenty of time to walk pets multiple times per day as well. When caring for your pets in my home/your home, I treat both our spaced and your animals with the utmost respect, structure, and attentiveness. I strictly follow your established schedule for feedings, walks, and medications to keep your pet's routine consistent and stress free. Safety is my top priority, so I constantly double check that all doors, windows, and gates are securely latched, scan the floors for potential hazards, and always supervise outdoor backyard time. I also make sure to keep your home pristine by wiping muddy paws, scooping litter boxes daily, and taking out the trash. Throughout my stay, I will send you regular text updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets and your home are in safe, loving hands.

About: We recognize Our pets are our family and they will be treated as such. They may have special needs and they certainly have unique personalities. Once you have shared the characteristics of your pet with us, we will be transparent about any questions or concerns, limitations we have. All our family members are comfortable and capable with animals, especially dogs. Naturally we enjoy being around them and utilize positive reinforcement in managing any pets in our house and care. I will communicate my availability and we can work out the logistics together. Our own precious "Sage" is a Maltese mix known as a Biewer. She either bonds or ignores other dogs. A meet and greet will quickly reveal how well they will get along. We look forward to speaking with you. Boarding hours: Based on a 24 hour period. Pick up time from drop off time, plus 1-2 hours extra (if needed) . Daily daycare rate will apply after the 24 hour period. Day care hours: 7:30am-7pm, plus 1-2 hours (if needed) no later than 8:30pm. Fenced yard. I have 2 friendly pups to provide your baby hours of entertainment. AC/Heat unit throughout the house to make your pet comfortable in extreme summer weather and cold winter days.

I’m available for boarding from 11am to 6pm weekdays and weekend and always available via call/text. Your pet will receive lots of attention and get at least one 30 minutes walk a day. I have a spacious, fenced backyard and a mini poodle to keep your dog company. Dogs are free to roam the house and sleep where they are comfortable.

About: I have had cats and dogs as pets for years I have had small and large dogs. My daughters have mice and guinea pigs so I am very knowledgeable with all kinds of animals. I work part-time so on my days off I'm available to go for walks as well as home visits for your pets. 1 to 2 days notice in advance would be great, but also available for same day as well. For walks I can always go to a nearby area or even to a specific location that you're pet loves. For home visits I can make sure they take any medication they need and make sure they don't get into things, as well as maintaining the schedule you've dry for them.

This applies for both week days and weekends. I am very aware of my environment especially when responsible for pets. Scanning any dangers or possible risks where a pet may escape or be harmed is my top priority.

About: Hi! I’m Gemma, a proud cat mom to my daughter Angel (the black cat in my pictures)! I love her so much. Being a pet parent myself, I know what it’s like to trust someone else with your whole world. I miss my pet child SO MUCH when I’m away, so I love taking and sending lots of pictures and updates to give you that same peace of mind! I love my cat so much i have her tattooed she is my muse. I also grew up with a Pomeranian-Terrier mix for 15 years and have experience overnight sitting for a friend’s husky & golden doodle. I’ve always been a huge animal lover and would love to give your pets the same love and attention I give my own! I’m also an avid rollerblader and have found that energetic dogs love a speedy walk or run! I work M-F 8-4 with T W TH being optional to WFH. Outside of that I have a good handful of freetime I'd love to fill with this side hobby/hustle. Weekends are great for me too! With provided resources I intend to keep a close eye on cleanliness for your pet and make sure to clean up after their bathroom activities at all time, while preventing any possible personal item damage.

About: I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know their needs and follow care instructions carefully. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages and temperaments. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention and care. I'm patient, reliable, and committed to keeping pet owners updated with photos and messages, so they can have peace of mind while they're away. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. Because I'm home during the week, pets are rarely left alone and can enjoy regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship. On weekends, my family is also home, so there is always someone available to supervise and care for your pet. This means your pet will have company and attentive care seven days a week, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home where pets can relax and feel secure. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs to help pets feel as comfortable as possible. Because I work from home, I can provide regular supervision throughout the day and quickly respond to your pet's needs. I introduce pets to new environments at their own pace and always use secure leashes and safe handling practices during walks. I also send regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: I voulunteered at an animal shelter and took care of small dogs by playing with them and make their life happy because all day they spend inside the kettle. It makes me sad that most of them wait longer than others to be adopted. So I make their experience outside of their kettle the best days of their lives. This includes fetching toys, gradually teaching tricks, and giving the best cuddles. I used to have a Labrador retriever named Tyson, but it was actually my previous roommate’s dog. Most of the time, she would neglect him, so I stepped in to take care of him. It saddened me that my previous roommate treated Tyson so poorly, but I was not going to let this take a toll on his life. As of now, I currently volunteer at a cat lounge in Downtown Long Beach and spend my time taking care of our cats, clean their litter, and feed them. I also answer guests questions regarding the adoption process and specific cats they are seeking. I am currently working part-time from Mondays through Fridays from 9am to 1pm. Some weekends I can be available to take care of your needs. I make sure that the dog’s environment and protected and safe for them to run around in. This includes the structure and sturdiness of their fences and the inside condition if the client’s home.

Ivi was beyond amazing! Bart loved her from the start during the meet & greet which made me feel great. She was extremely thorough and intentional with each step of his process, taking many pictures and writing long recaps! I was nervous as this was the first time other than us giving him his medicine (which is orally via syringe and he needs to be put in a little blanket burrito) but she did great!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Garden Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Garden Grove is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 per visit. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 14,728 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Garden Grove. 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 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:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
