“If you’re looking for someone you can fully trust with your pets and home and babies book Jovi !!! She came through for us super last minute and once again completely exceeded expectations. The house was spotless when we got home, everything was taken care of, and you can genuinely tell how much she cares about the animals. Our cats absolutely love her and are always so comfortable around her, which means everything to us. She goes above and beyond every single time and has truly become someone we trust completely. Couldn’t recommend her more 🥹”
About: Hi! I’m a 26 year old dog lover, grad student, and proud dog mom to my 6yr old doodle mix. I work part time as a SLPA at Rady Children’s Hospital while attending grad school, which gives me flexibility to spend time with your pups on Tuesday afternoons, Wednesdays and Fridays. I also have experience fostering through The Animal Pad, a local non profit organization. I’d love the opportunity to give your dog some extra love and attention while you’re away! Whether they need a walk, a potty break, some playtime, or simply a little company and cuddles. I know how much our dogs mean to us, so I’ll treat your pup with the same patience, care, and love I give my own. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family member ☺️🐾🤍 I work part time as a SLPA at Rady Children’s Hospital while attending grad school, which gives me flexibility to spend time with your pups on Tuesday afternoons, Wednesdays and Fridays. Your pets safety and comfort will always be my top priority! I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a beloved member of your family. I will always be respectful of your home, follow any house rules, and pet care instructions you provide to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable throughout my visit. I’m attentive to their needs and will take time to understand their routines, personalities and anything they may need extra care with. I’m happy to set up a meeting appointment to make sure I’m the right person for your pet/family 🥰
About: I have had pets for 17 years and so far I have 2 cats and 5 very friendly dogs. I know every behavior and jests at them or if they feel sick I am at home full time. The only time I go out is to go to the market and the occasional medical appointment. The rest of the time I will be caring for and raising your little loved one. My house has a secure fence, a yard to run around in. They will have fun meeting new friends. When they get tired they will sleep in a bed or blanket if they want.
“Heather was awesome! She took great care of my cats and kept me updated with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and had total peace of mind while I was away. I’d definitely book Heather again and highly recommend her!”
“Jaime was great with our cat Wilson! She saved the day when we had an issue with a different sitter and was very communicative. Will definitely be booking with Jaime again!”
About: Caring for animals is a lifelong passion, rooted in growing up around farm animals and currently sharing my home with my own dogs and cats. Over the past five years, I have dedicated myself to providing reliable, compassionate support for pets of all kinds. From energetic dogs and curious cats to horses and farm animals, I treat every companion as if they were my own. My approach centers on maintaining a consistent, stimulating routine while strictly adhering to dietary needs and safety protocols. Having grown up with farm animals and hands-on experience with both young pets and senior animals, I know how to tailor my care to every stage of life. Whether I am managing high-energy play or ensuring a calm environment, I prioritize your pet's comfort and happiness above all else. I remain calm and responsible during any situation, keeping you informed every step of the way. I truly love witnessing the unique quirks that make your pets special, and I would be honored to provide them with the dedicated care they deserve. I'm currently working part-time at another company, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets or take them for walks in the mornings. My schedule would be from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Friday. I could come on weekends, but that would be on an as-needed basis and only in the mornings. I take great care of my pets and others as if they were my own. I understand that they have needs just like people do; they are beings that require attention and good nutrition, which is why I like to take them for walks, play with them, let them rest peacefully, and feed them well.
“Tyler is the best we’ve ever had for our dog and it’s only been two weeks! At his initial meet and greet, you immediately get the sense that he is very passionate and knowledgeable about dog care. If his incredibly high ratings don’t say enough, I’ll tell you from the source that he is the right choice for you!”
About: I have owned dogs the majority of my life from big to small. I have had 2 cats in my life for the past 9 years as well. I am very knowledgeable in training and taking care of animals as its a big passion of mine to connect with animals, a long term goal is to become a Marine Biologist! I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I work part time at Chuze Fitness for about 3-4 days a week. I go to the gym about 3-4 times a week for 2 hours for each session. I enjoy exploring foods a lot and going to the movies! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I feed my dogs and cats twice a day. I usually take my dogs out on an hour walk a day when it’s not too hot for them. I try and take my dogs to the dog park 2-3 times a month for some friendly exposure. My cats are indoor cats so they just play around with their cat tree and sleep as they don’t enjoy being outside.
About: I have had pets since I was born. I raised small breed dogs (family dogs) when I was younger and went in to raise 2 large breed dogs at my current age. I have trained my dogs since they were puppies and have often received compliments on their behavior. They enjoy time outside, snuggles on the couch, and homemade treats. All of which I’d offer to any dog in my care. I have a spacious home with plenty of room to run around. I am skilled in giving medication to all sizes and ages. My Aussie is not keen on meds so I’ve had to learn ways to get around that. I love all animals and someday hope to have a farm once my husband retires from the Navy. I do not work. My husband is the worker. I’m the homemaker. So I have plenty of time to do drop ins, check ins, etc and will not leave your dog for long periods of time. I have my own car, so I’m able to make it from point A to B without issue. I also have a routine that my own dogs follow, so I’m up everyday by 8am. I have 2 crates already located in my home. I hsve 2 dogs of my own. A female pitbull (Erza) and a male Aussie (Killua). I have a garage that I allow them to run around in for exercise (I’m working on making it into a doggy play room for my dogs, but it’s large so it’d fit up to 8 dogs). I have have 3 Furbo cameras in my home, so on the off chance I have to not be home I am able to view them on camera. I can also send recordings as needed.
“Did a great job taking care of my boys, took them out potty, fed them and cleaned up their accidents! Arrived on time, has showed great communication, and reliable. Will rebook her in the future!”
“Madeline was awesome! I planned poorly and so booked super last minute and she immediately set up a meet and greet. She sent so many pictures of Salvador and was so responsive. I came home to a happy kitty and a clean litter box. 10/10 recommend!”
About: Animals are and will for ever be part of my life, they are a huge source of happiness for me, even if I’m not their owner and only have them for a few minutes, I will love them and respect them as if they where my own. I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats, and other different pets and have the experience needed for knowing what they want and how to treat them. I am available to take care of your pets any day of the week even weekends! This mostly during breaks, I am a college student so during school semesters the availability can change depending on my classes, but I’ll usually change that in advance on the app. I also can do nights, or we can arrange something that will work for both sides, I’m very open to talk and help in any way possible! Most services are offered, I can walk them, feed them, spend time with them and pet them of course! I can stay nights, the day or even a few hours or minutes at your place and they are also welcome to my home any time. Safety is important on both sides, if pets are aggressive or bite please let me know in advance, if they have conditions or medical issues please let me know, I’ll take care of them with all the safety needed and provide them with a loving, caring and safe environment.
“Amber has been watching our new 4 month old puppy this week. She comes in for a 30 minute visit once per day. Amber had been great! We leave instructions that she had followed perfectly. She leaves detailed report cards so we know exactly what occurred during the visit.”
About: As a proud dog mom, I understand that pets aren’t just animals — they’re family. Caring for my own dog has taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of routine, exercise, and lots of love. From daily walks and playtime to recognizing subtle changes in behavior, I’m attentive to every detail that keeps a pup happy and healthy. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — with safety, affection, and reliable care at the forefront. I’m currently in the military so my schedule is very unpredictable. There are times when I have significant time off allowing much flexibility or there are times when my availability will become much limited.That said, I’m big on communication and keeping my calendar updated. I only take bookings when I know I can fully show up and give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. If I commit to you, you can count on me! When I’m caring for a pet in their home, safety is always my top priority! I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure before and after walks, and I’m careful to prevent any escape risks. I follow all instructions exactly as given — feeding routines, medication schedules, crate use, and house rules — to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I’m mindful of potential hazards like foods left out, small objects on the floor, or anything that could be chewed or swallowed. During walks, I use secure leashing practices and stay alert to surroundings, other animals, and traffic. I also provide regular updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. Your home will be respected, and your pet will be cared for like family. ((:
About: Whether it’s scooping poop or chasing squirrels I’m there with the extra care. With a dog and cat of my own I know they deserve the world and more. Additionally the time I spent working at a dog kennel helped me to realize giving dogs the love they deserve is truly something special. When it comes to extra play and extra pats, trust that their paws are in good hands. I am currently on winter break for college and am available whenever needed. You say when and I’ll be there making sure your pet is happy and safe. I keep my dog indoors typically but my house has a doggy door for easy access to the backyard when needed. It is safely enclosed with sturdy fence so they can get their outside time while staying safe. Additionally human food is put away at all times and all house materials including plants are pet friendly.
“New sitter and Melissa was fantastic !!! Took lots of notes during our meet and greet, very thoughtful and thorough. Comfortable right off the back with our furbabies .. Found us a new sitter ! Very greatful”
About: I have been a pet-sitter for nearly a decade. I was working with Peace of Mind Pet Concierge in Long Beach before they moved out of state and sadly closed their business. I have learned from the best and am always ready to care for pups and kitties anytime. I am comfortable with providing medication and giving the best care all animals deserve. I have my own pup and kitties, so I know how important it is to make sure my clients know their babies are good in hands with me. I work part time at the Crooked Duck and District 4 Pizza. So I’m always around in the neighborhood. Maybe you’ve already seen me at the restaurants!! 😄😄 I still pet sit on the side from families I already work with outside of Rover. I have also volunteered at Long Beach Animal Care Services at their Pet Food Express location in Bixby Knolls. I have ample time in my day to help with petsitting in and around my area. I care very much about the safety of pets and abide by all rules for which families have in place to ensure their pets stay safe. Some families have requested cats stay in certain parts of the home, while dogs stay in another. I am aware, respectful, and always follow the instructions of families’ requests.
About: As a lifelong dog owner with experience caring for a pet with many medical issues, I understand the importance of specialized care. With my full-time availability, I provide personalized dog sitting, boarding, and walking services to ensure your furry friend receives the attention and care they need. Your dog will be in good hands with me! With my flexible schedule as a self-employed professional working from home, I am available all day for dog care, walking, and boarding. Your pup will receive personalized attention and care while you're away, giving you peace of mind. I love to send photo updates! Home is a sanctuary, and I understand the importance of respecting your space and keeping your pet safe while visiting your home. If your pet is in my care at my home, rest assured that they will be in a clean, secure environment with a dedicated potty area, fenced-in front and back yards, and no access to anything that could be harmful to them. Your pet will be kept separate from mine in different areas of the house, and I will strictly follow their feeding and walking schedule to maintain their routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Imperial Beach
Heather took great care of our 2 cats and pet hen while we were away. Our cats quickly took to her kind and calm demeanor during the meet and greet. She provided a written note with fun pictures for every visit. We looked forward to the updates, which helped alleviate stress of our travel. She handled a couple requests that came up and was very responsive throughout. We arrived back to happy, well cared for pets and a tidy home! We highly recommend Heather, and absolutely will re-book in the future.
Jaime was such a heaven sent! She was so accommodating to my requests (even a last minute request to drop in a day extra) and sent our family so many photos of our animals! She responded super quickly to my texts and gave me such peace of mind. Prior to booking she came and did an initial visit to meet our animals so they would be comfortable with her presence. Our animals, with all their quirks, took to her so quickly and looked full of joy when she was visiting. She even helped with obedience training for our dog so her schedule wasn’t interrupted! Our family will definitely be rebooking Jaime on our next trip so we know our animals are safe, provided for, and loved while we are away. Thank you so so much Ms. Jaime!!
Andrea is the BEST! She makes my cat feel so comfortable and always takes great care of him. She is the only person I book when I leave town and ill use her services every time she is available. Very reliable and kind. Great communication so you always know what's going on while youre away. I recommend her every time!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Imperial Beach on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 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 .
As of September 2026, there are 3,859 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Imperial Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Imperial Beach. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
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.
