Very knowledgeable and thorough. My cat was very unimpressed when we got home, simply because she was very relaxed and at peace being taken care of by T.J.

Alicia has been our sitter for a few weeks now, coming to the house twice a week while I’m at school—and she’s done a wonderful job! She’s reliable, quick to respond, kind, and clearly loves what she does. I always come home to a happy, relaxed Lassie. Alicia goes above and beyond to make sure Lassie gets plenty of fetch time and potty breaks. I highly recommend her!!

About: (I Speak English & Spanish) I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have years of experience caring for pets belonging to friends and family as well. From walks, feeding, and bathing to bottle-feeding puppies, I truly love and care for pets of all ages. We have a fenced yard where your pup can safely run and play while always being supervised. I’d also love to take your fur baby on walks around our 20-acre property - we can walk down to the barn, explore the land, and enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise together. I’m currently a student at the University of Kentucky, and I schedule all of my classes on just two days a week, so I’m home most of the time. My husband also works from home, which means your pet will always have company and will never be left alone. During your pet’s stay, I’ll send plenty of pictures and videos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I’ve also completed dog training classes and would be happy to practice basic commands or even teach your pup a few fun tricks! My schedule is very flexible, so whether you need care planned in advance or last-minute help, I’m here for you and your fur baby. 😃 I’m currently a student at the University of Kentucky and attend classes only twice a week. My husband works from home, so there is always someone at home. Because of that, we’ll have plenty of time and attention to give your pups, making sure they’re well cared for, played with, and loved while they’re with us. I have a fenced in yard, and they will never be without supervision. I have a friendly Golden Retriever to keep you fur baby company as well. I also have crates, so if needed or if you would prefer, the crates are accessible. If you have a pet in heat, and you need to go out for a while, no worries just let me know and I can accommodate to make sure your fur baby has fun and is also kept safe.

Elena is AMAZING!!! She is so sweet, kind, caring, patient and very accommodating. Our dog, Sydney is very shy and nervous around people, but she quickly warmed up to her. Elena took great care of Sydney. She gave detailed feedback, updates and pictures of Sydney during each visit. I will definitely rebook with Elena again. I highly recommend and trust her! Elena is the BEST!!!

About: I have experience with puppy training basics, including house training reinforcement, crate training, leash manners, and maintaining consistent routines. I’m patient, calm, and positive, which helps young dogs learn while feeling safe and confident. For senior pets, I provide attentive, compassionate care, including administering medications, assisting with mobility, sticking to specialized diets, and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. I understand that older pets need extra patience and gentle handling, and I make their comfort a top priority. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and trustworthy care while keeping owners updated and worry-free. I am currently staying at home due to a lapse in full time work! Taking care of my pets is naturally in my daily routine as well as working on commission based art work. When it comes to taking care of pets in home, I am able to safely separate them from my other pets if need be. All of my pets are vaccinated! I do not have a fenced in yard, however I do have a gated porch! If your pups need walked they will be safely walked on a leash or they can be placed in my outside kennel if requested by you! :) pets are allowed on furniture!

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was born, I love playing, walking and just handing out with them! Also i know the hardships it takes. I am a very available person, I do have a part time job but other than that I’m very free. I usually work a few hours every other day. I love going on runs which I enjoy very much to take a dog on, this could be a short walk or a hike! I’m very active but always love bringing animals with me even if it’s just to get a pup cup or play at a park!!! I currently have 3 dogs, and I watch my sister dog on occasion. My house has a fenced yard of an acre letting the 3 of them run freely. I’m very much for making an outside environment for dogs. But also believe in rest time. I usually spend time watching tv with my dogs or just laying with them

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—I’ve never known a home without a dog. Growing up, I had the opportunity to care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic Jack Russell Terriers to loyal Labrador Retrievers and loving Pitbulls. I was always involved in their daily care, whether it was taking them on walks, feeding them, or making sure they stayed up to date with vet visits. My love for animals has only grown over the years. Two years ago, I adopted my dog, Russell, from a shelter, and he has been my loyal companion ever since. I also have two cats, Chief and Reid, who keep life interesting and have taught me even more about pet care. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I love making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. As a part-time Graduate Assistant, I have plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for and play with your pups, especially on the weekends! As a dog owner myself, I know what it's like to worry about your pet while gone. I will ensure pets are fed, exercised, and groomed according to their needs. I provide loving companionship, and follow specific care instructions for each pet’s well being and comfort.

Emily was just wonderful taking care of our two older dogs. She came to our home prior to our trip to meet me and our dogs - and I instantly knew that Emily loved animals and would care for ours like her own. She sent multiple pictures every day of our dogs outside walking and playing. When we came home they were happy and healthy. Thank you Emily!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs practically my whole life. It’s one of my greatest passions and most of my life I would dogsit for anyone who would let me growing up. I would love to make sure all of the animals are safe and well cared for while their owners are gone. I currently go to school and work part time, but there is most certainly time for me to fit in helping these families with their animals when they need it. I do live in an apartment complex but I have many years of experience with walking dogs of all kinds so I could walk it when needed. As for as toys, a crate or bedding at my apartment, I don’t have much of that, but could get some if needed.

I recently moved from NY to KY and was in need of someone to help care for my four dogs. I had spoken to many people and wasn’t comfortable with anyone as I had my prior dog walker in Ny for over 10 years. I found Tanika and she and I hit it off right away: she was super accommodating to my ever changing schedule. I was nervous to have my one rescue dog meet anyone because he could be unpredictable. Tanika came armed with treats and was relaxed and so easy going with all the dogs that he took to her first!!!! Tanika had been above and beyond amazing . She helps with my dogs that have medical issues and she is always there when and if I need her. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own and I’ve never had to worry about them when I’m away. She is an absolute god send and I highly recommend her!

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in dog sitting and walking, I bring a deep love for animals and a strong sense of responsibility to every pet I care for. I’ve been around animals my entire life—dogs, cats, and more—and currently have a sweet dog of my own who keeps me active and inspired every day.

In addition to pet care, I have 2 years of experience babysitting children, which has helped me build strong communication skills and a reliable, nurturing presence that both pets and people can trust. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, one-on-one attention, or a safe place to stay, I’m here to provide compassionate, dependable care you can count on. i am a stay at home college student who does side jobs during the week to tend to all of my animals. there is nothing that makes me happier than caring for any fury little babies. i’m free just about any day. :) I live in a very safe and secure neighborhood. i have a fenced in yard. As well as a wooden fenced in cage area outside that is about 900 square feet for zoomies and training. There is no length i won’t go to keep your animals safe and happy:)

Selah did a fantastic job. This was our first time using rover and she did not disappoint. She kept me well informed of messes, updates and earned our dogs trust. She even picked up our trash cans when the wind blew them over. Highly recommend using her to care for your fur baby.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Irvine on Rover is $23.31 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 131 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Irvine. 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 Irvine 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
