“Kristie has watched our doggies a few times and she has been wonderful to both our Bob and Roxy. We have a very anxious older dog and she has been so patient with her. She is always on time and provides regular updates/pictures which makes me feel at ease. She always makes sure that our dogs are calm before she leaves them at the end of her dog sit. We appreciate her so much.”
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with German Shepherds, a Cocker Spaniel, and a mixed-breed dog. Later, when I started my own family, we welcomed Fiera, our Labrador Retriever. She grew up alongside my children—they were like siblings and partners in crime. If you’ve ever had a Lab, you know exactly what I mean. 😁 When Fiera was about five years old, Glitch, our little Shihpoo, joined the family. Fiera crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 13, and we still miss her every day. 💗 Making your pup feel safe and cared for is my priority. If your dog isn’t acting like themselves, isn’t eating normally, or just seems “off,” I’ll notice and I’ll let you know. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions, whether it’s feeding routines, walks, medications, or special care. I have experience giving oral medications, eye and ear medications, topical treatments, and subcutaneous injections when prescribed by a veterinarian. When I’m caring for your dog, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages. While you’re away, I’m also happy to bring in mail and packages, water indoor or outdoor plants, rotate lights if requested, and help keep your home looking lived-in. Just let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to help. 🐾 Health & Safety For the health and safety of all pets in my home, dogs staying with me must be free of fleas and ticks and current on veterinarian-recommended vaccinations, including rabies as required by law. I understand that some dogs may be unable to receive certain vaccines or use flea/tick preventatives for medical reasons. Please let me know in advance so we can discuss your veterinarian’s recommendations and make sure I can safely accommodate your pet. If fleas or ticks are discovered at any time during your pet’s stay, I will contact you immediately. Any necessary treatment will be discussed with you first and must be appropriate for your pet. Any treatment expenses and additional cleaning costs resulting from fleas or ticks will be the pet parent’s responsibility. I’m currently completing professional training from home, so I spend most of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship for the pets in my care. Our home is shared with our small dog, Glitch, and our indoor cat, Vinnie. Both are important members of our family. Glitch enjoys having canine visitors, and he has always done well with dogs in our home. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, I carefully introduce dogs and only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. We have a fully fenced yard. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s normal routine, including using a crate if they’re already crate trained and comfortable with it.
About: I’ve always been a total cat person! Whether it’s a playful kitten or a seasoned nap champion, I genuinely enjoy getting to know each cat’s unique personality. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of feline friends: energetic, shy, purr machines, and everything in between. I understand that each cat has different needs…whether that’s active playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone who knows how to give the perfect chin scratch. My goal is always to create a safe, loving, and low-stress environment. I keep their routine consistent, from feeding schedules and litter box care to making sure they have clean, cozy spots to relax. I’m also a bit of a neat freak, so their space stays fresh and tidy (no stinky boxes or spilled kibble here!). I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, and I’m quick to notice if something seems off. You’ll get updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is doing well and probably living their best life. Cat sitting, for me, is more than just a job. It’s a chance to bond, provide comfort, and be a trustworthy stand-in while you’re away. I genuinely love being part of their day and making sure they’re not just safe, but happy, relaxed, and completely spoiled. I babysit or run errands occasionally during the week, but I’m just five minutes away. It’s easy for me to stop by as needed. I have plenty of time to give your cat attention and care when it matters most. Your cat’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel relaxed and at home. I’m mindful of keeping doors and windows safe, removing any hazards, and ensuring they always have fresh water, a clean litter box, and their favorite cozy spots. I pay close attention to their behavior and health, and I’m quick to notice if something seems off. Whether they’re playful or prefer quiet time, I tailor their care to make them feel safe, seen, and loved.
“Daniel took great care of our dog, Olive, while we were away. His check ins were punctual and he always sent updates and pictures to let us know she was happy and healthy!”
“Caroline showed up on time and was very attentive to my 3 cats needs. She even came over and met them prior to her visits. Best of all my cats love her and we’re out for pets even though they are very shy and skittish. She is definitely great with pets.”
“Rose is absolutely amazing!! She really saved us when we had another sitter quit, mid booking. She is very trustworthy and responsible and great at communicating! We are so happy to have her care for our pets!”
“Sheree was phenomenal!! My cats adored her and her step son. She was attentive, gave great photos/synopses, and went above and beyond. I came home to happy babies who never felt alone. Sheree is my go-to sitter from now on. Thank you so much!!”
“Anu checked in on my dog multiple times for a few days. She was so sweet to him and made sure he had everything he needed. Her updates to me were detailed with a lot of great photos that ensured me my dog was in great hands! Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Mackenna was awesome! I felt total trust and confidence in leaving my dog in the care of Mackenna know that Sami, my husky, would be well cared for. Mackenna went above and beyond in providing extra care, cuddles and was very attentive.”
“Jamie is awesome! We spent the day in LA and needed somebody to watch the pets while we were gone. She came over to meet our doggos beforehand and they immediately liked her. Jaime dropped in and took care of the dogs twice, and even spent a little extra time because one of our dogs is a little shy. I highly recommend her!”
“Ailen was a wonderful pet sitter for our cat and 2 dogs! She was able to watch our pets for a week on short notice and was extremely thorough with her care for them. She is an exceptional communicator, and kept us up-to-date on all things happening while we were away.”
About: We love doggies! I never thought I would be a dog mom but after fostering multiple dogs we finally adpoted! We have a beautiful boarder collie, golden, chow mix named Sammie. She is perfect! I love dogs, they give so much love and are apart of the family. I cant wait to meet yours! I am currently available most of the time. I work remote so I am flexible. Just reach out and I can work with you! I love to walk and I love to see animals, they fill my cup so it all is a win, win! I have a fenced yard and my animals have a separate area but are also great with other animals. Each pet is very different so we can discuss what your pet prefers when we book the boarding.
“She is the most caring and sweet person. In addition, the four dogs loved her and felt an immediate bond. Please use Saeedeh without reservation. I’ll definitely be asking her to watch my pups again. Love the videos too!”
“We love Laura! She’s our favorite kitty sitter!! Do yourself a favor and have her take care of your fur babies while you’re away - you won’t worry at all with her in charge!! ♥️🐾♥️🐾”
About: I have owned and cared for animals since I was four years old, and began caring for others’ pets around the age of eleven or twelve. I have experience in anything from dog walking to administering oral medication to making a pet feel at home with me. I will go the extra step to care for and protect your animals of any size and breed, and am more than excited to get to know and love all kinds of great pets. I am currently on summer break but working a part time job with variable hours. I more than likely will be able to fulfill a request, please just let me know what works best for you and I will respond as soon as possible. I have lots of experience with all kinds of animals including snakes, fish, birds, cats, and dogs. I will make sure to meet whatever needs you seek and will use everything in my knowledge to make your pets feel at home and well taken care of with me. Additionally, I am more than willing to look after the security of your home and do tasks like mail pickup and moving garbage if you request.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ladera Ranch
Riley was a huge help. She was very responsive and was able to watch our pups last minute. Our pups were treated so well. She checked in with us periodically and made sure they were taken care of through all the check ins. Highly recommend, will definitely rebook!
Dawn is absolutely incredible. She was able to hunt down our very tricky cat and successfully give her the medication she needs. Pet sitters we've used in the past we're not able to do this. She let us know about a leaking pipe outside and was there to troubleshoot. We can't imagine traveling without her.
Ailen was a wonderful pet sitter for our cat and 2 dogs! She was able to watch our pets for a week on short notice and was extremely thorough with her care for them. She is an exceptional communicator, and kept us up-to-date on all things happening while we were away.
Kimiko is absolutely amazing. I have three dogs one being an older dog fishing 10 years old and two just turned three years old and very high energy.. Kimiko did amazing with all three of them. Kimiko was very prompt on timing and the request we had. She fulfilled and exceeded on all of the things we asked. Most of all she did extra that was not asked, annd our dogs felt very comfortable with her. Thank you again so much.
We've trusted Nikki with our cat several times and she is always wonderful. She takes great care of him and sends the most amazing photos and videos, which make being away so much easier. We always come home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty and feel very lucky to have found her.
Anu checked in on my dog multiple times for a few days. She was so sweet to him and made sure he had everything he needed. Her updates to me were detailed with a lot of great photos that ensured me my dog was in great hands! Will definitely be booking with her again!

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 Ladera Ranch 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 Ladera Ranch. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
