Victoria was great! Quick/easy to communicate, check ins were on time and as discussed, and she seemed to take great care of my cat while I was gone! I will use her in the future.

About: 🐾 Trusted, Experienced Pet Care in San Diego 🐾 Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover, dog owner, and experienced pet caregiver serving San Diego. I share my home with one friendly adult dog and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other pets for friends, neighbors, and family. I also bring extensive equestrian experience, giving me confidence with animals of all sizes and temperaments. As a retired law enforcement professional, I value safety, reliability, and clear communication. You can feel confident your pets and home are in responsible, attentive hands. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and flexible care tailored to your pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or a calm, steady presence, I provide dependable care and regular updates for your peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I have recently retired from the law enforcement profession so I have plenty of availability and flexibility to work with your individual pet care needs. I have a fenced in yard and one resident adult dog who plays well with others. I believe our pets are part of the family so they will spend most of their time indoors with me and my pup. I’m happy to crate your pets and even accept puppies.

Stephanie went above and beyond to take care of our disgruntled pit bull. In the process of switching sitters and our dog was not being friendly at all when Stephanie showed up, despite the previous meet & greet. Scary to have a pit growling and barking at you but Stephanie was able to win her over. Relieved and impressed, will be rebooking Stephanie regularly.

About: I've watched my families dogs for years and have a dog of my own! She is a toy poodle and is full of energy and love. She is currently visiting family and we miss her very much. I am currently unemployed, so have lots of time to tend to your babies! Mainly looking to do dog walking, occasional drop in visits and if things work out well also boarding in my home! Im very flexible with days and times. So lets chat and work something out! I have a fenced in backyard and am able to crate your dogs if necessary. Whatever you do in your home can easily be mimicked in mine.

Ra-Chel was phenomenal. She went out of her way to meet with me the night before her visit to meet Oliver and help alleviate some of my anxiety. She took time to play and and out with Oliver and made sure he was fed and happy before putting him in his bed.

Tally was wonderful with my last-minute request to look in on my dog and take her for a walk when I needed to be away for most of the day and night. She took good care of my dog and took care to secure the house. I happily recommend Tally as a reliable pet care professional and I will use her services in the future if she is available.

About: I have been a cat owner and dog owner for the majority of my life. I have extra time now as I have just retired and would love to help you care for your pet when you are unavailable. I have a few enjoyable activities that I do each day, and would love to add caring for your SINGLE pet to my daily routine. The pets that I have had in the past have been part of my family, and I take the utmost care to make sure they are safe and comfortable and loved.

I have three very picky kitty cats. I set up a meet and greet with Sara knowing full well that all three of the cats would scatter and she might not see them at all that day. Boy was I wrong instead of running two of them came to the door to greet her. The third cat didn't run away and even let Sara come pet her! I think it is safe to say that Sara does have some magic or charm that my kitty cats fell in love with. I felt secure and safe having her taking care of my cats, going above and beyond even. I felt at ease giving her the key to our house knowing everything would be okay. I also love using Rover because that is an extra measure of protection for my home and pets. Thank you Sara and Rover!

About: Hi, I'm Eda! I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My grandpa had a beautiful farm in Temecula, where I grew up helping care for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, ducks, and even one very mean buck. From an early age, I also looked after my neighbors' pets, and I loved every minute of it. My family is from Turkey, where there's a deep appreciation for animals, especially dogs and cats. In my culture, animals are considered part of the family, and that's exactly how I've always treated them. That mindset has stayed with me throughout my life. I'm the friend who always finds the pet at the party, stops to admire every dog on a walk (with permission, of course), and can't resist saying hello to my neighborhood cat. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet companion, I'll care for them with patience, attention, and lots of affection. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in kind, reliable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and work part-time from home. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the animals in my care, whether they need regular walks, playtime, feeding, enrichment, or simply some extra companionship throughout the day. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I work from home part-time, giving me flexibility to provide attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and crate preferences. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

Karmelita was amazing! Zippo can be kind of skittish with sitters, but had no problem coming out for her. Our cat needs medication regularly twice a day and Karmelita had no problem giving him the medication or with the schedule. And even stayed to play with him for a bit! She was an amazing communicator and took lots of photos. I highly recommend Karmelita and hope she is available next time we need someone to watch our cat!

About: As a cat owner myself, I understand that cats have unique personalities, routines, and comfort levels. I’ve cared for many cats over the years and know the importance of providing a calm, stress-free environment while maintaining feeding schedules, litter box cleanliness, playtime, and plenty of affection on their terms. I pay close attention to behavior and habits, making sure cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your cat is social and playful or more independent and reserved, I’ll respect their needs and provide attentive, reliable care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. As a cat owner, caring for a pet is already part of my everyday life, and I make time for feeding, play, exercise, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m an active, outdoors-oriented person, so I enjoy taking dogs on walks and giving them the exercise and attention they need. I also understand the importance of consistency, so I stick closely to each pet’s routine, whether that means regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or simply providing companionship. My schedule allows me to be dependable and give every pet the time, care, and attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications (if needed), favorite toys, and any special instructions. For dogs, I provide plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and positive interaction to keep them happy and active. For cats, I maintain a clean litter box, fresh food and water, playtime when they want it, and give them space if they prefer a quieter environment. I treat every home with respect by keeping it clean, secure, and following any instructions left by the owner. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is receiving reliable, loving care while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs for most of my life. I currently have a cat and a dog of my own, and I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and attentive to care for your pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I have fostered a dog and successfully helped her find a loving forever home. I have experience with walking, feeding, bathing, administering medications, and providing plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets, I treat them as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and comfort to ensure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, long walks, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’m committed to providing reliable and compassionate care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work as a teacher, so I would be mainly available after 4:00pm on the weekends. During the weekend, summer, spring break, and winter break, I am available anytime. I live in a house. The backyard is fenced, there are food and water bowls, litter boxes, dog/cat beds. I have 1 dog that is the sweetest and loves to play. I have 3 cats that would not bother the dog. If the need medication, I of course give them their needed medicine. I talk my dogs to the beach, for a walk around the neighborhood, and they love car rides! They love toys!

About: My name is Tara, and I am a nurse by day. I have two cats that are my children, and am always looking to love on other fur babies. I am available to walk dogs, do drop in visits, house-sit animals in a client's home, and administer medications. I can clean after pets and care for puppies and kittens as well. I have previously volunteered at animal shelters and worked with many different animals. Other than pet care, I love being outdoors and staying active in nature. I absolutely love to travel in my spare time. I am also available for farm animal care as well- although I don't have any experience in this I would really love to learn. Thank you for reading! I am taking a break from nursing for a couple months and my schedule is pretty flexible/open! I am happy to provide care during this time of transition. I am reliable, friendly, and safe in my interactions with pets. Regardless of the temperament of the animal, I can read animals body language well and know how to make them feel safe.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Lemon Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lemon Grove on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 9,043 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lemon 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 Lemon 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 Lemon Grove. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
