About: I have been around dogs my entire life and have experience with both small and large breeds. I currently have two dogs of my own, a German Shepherd mix and an Australian Cattle Dog mix. As the owner of a reactive dog, I am experienced in handling reactive dogs. I also have experience working with high energy dogs, no dog is too much for me! In fact, I prefer dogs with a ton of energy, as it makes every experience more fun! I love crazy dogs, the crazier the better! got a high energy breed? bring them to me! My background allows me to provide the best care for your pups ♡ Currently, I’m a college student who is taking online classes at the moment making me available for your pups any day of the week. 😊 I ensure your pets stay on their usual routine, receiving the same care they’re used to. I will make sure their needs are met, whether it’s feeding, exercise, or training.
About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my entire life, including dogs, and cats. I previously worked as both a kennel technician and veterinary technician throughout high school and after graduating, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I currently work for an equine supplement and nutrition company, so animal health and wellbeing continue to be a huge part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable administering basic care, recognizing signs of discomfort or illness, and providing patient, attentive care to each pet’s individual needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and reliable presence, I’ll treat them like my own while you’re away. I’m currently on maternity leave with my first baby and working toward becoming a stay-at-home mom while still helping support my family financially. Because of this, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times, as reflected on my calendar. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my daily life, and I enjoy being active, outdoors, and spending time with pets. I’m able to provide dependable care, walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. Animals have always been a big part of my home and daily life. I currently have three indoor-only cats, seven backyard chickens, and my horse is boarded at a separate off-site stable. Because I care for a variety of animals, maintaining a safe, clean, and structured environment is very important to me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications if needed, and any specific instructions provided. My background as a kennel technician and veterinary technician has taught me how to safely handle animals, recognize signs of stress or illness, and provide calm, attentive care for pets of all personalities and energy levels.
“A big thank you to Alex! She did an amazing job watching my two cats and keeping them safe and happy. I loved the regular picture updates she sent me too. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: First pets were dogs and I’ve never looked back. Walks, pets, food, love all guaranteed, if they need extra medical care as well I will do. Their better health is important to me. I have a part time job Tuesday-Friday 9am-4pm with Tuesday being a night shift 4pm-9pm. I’m a college student and I get around on bike so I’m only able to take work in town at the moment. Thank you so much for considering me and I’ll always do my best to make sure your pets are cared for the best way possible. I live in a home with one lazy cat. I’ve volunteered in local cat shelters and on top of having pets throughout the years I’ve walked and looked after family and friends pets even having to take in some friends pets in emergencies when their living situations were not in order. I’ve walked and picked up my family’s big dog when he got too lazy to walk back so no matter how heavy I’ll be able to get your best friend back home.
About: I have worked with all types of dogs for many years for family or friends. I love all types of dogs and all the unique personalities they all carry with them! I am a full time student in high school. And I work at Jets Gymnastics for various times after school. But I can go during lunch and after school to play and cuddle with your loving companion. I have a dog that loves cuddling and being around people. She also loves being outside. So if your puppy loves the same things I can work with them with ease.
“Marie is always so great with our pets. She communicates with each drop in visit and sends the best candid pics of our little ones. We feel so lucky that we found someone like her to take care of them.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Mia was outstanding in the care and communication she provided. She's smart, polite and responsible. She cared for my 2 cats for 11 days while i was out of the country. She's a university student so you know she's able to follow detailed instructions and problem-solve. She handled ant infestation and cat regurgitation without complaint and said she'd be happy to return for another pet sitting. That's a good work ethic! I thanked her generously and highly recommend her.”
About: I've had pets in the home for as long as I can remember. Dog breeds from Dachshunds to Great Danes to Pit Bulls. I love them all. I have had a dog with extreme allergies so I am familiar with medication administration. I very open on schedule for the most part. I do not have a full time job like most. I am free alot of the time. I treat all pets as my own. I love giving cuddles and love to any and all animals that allow me to give them the love.
“Timothy was amazing! He came through for us with reliable and caring visits with our cat Bash while we were out of town. We feel lucky we found him and would absolutely book Timothy as a petsitter again!”
About: I was an animal care manager for the largest non profit in North Dakota souris valley animal shelter, i can provide med and care for all types of animals and conditions. No size or shape is too much! I currently work night shift at 840pm but in flexible and can accommodate most schedules, as well as most needs for your animals! We can figure out your needs as we go! I treat all animals the same as if they were my own, lots of love, care, and attention. I’m okay with giving medicine or any type of special treatment or care needed also.
“Delightful! Our cats are pretty shy so we weren't expecting much but Dayna was able to get pictures of them without a problem. She was very flexible and made us feel much better about being away from our pets for a week. Definitely at the top of our list for next time!”
“Excellent communication and feedback. We really appreciated that Manvir made time to meet with us prior to our booking and the photos she shared of our pups. Will definitely book again.”
About: When I moved from Texas to California back in 2013, I have owned, cared for, fostered and rescued pets for the past 7 years. I strive to own my own affordable doggy daycare/boarding/training facility within the great community of Lompoc so all community members can afford and feel at ease if they needed someone to watch and care for their furbabies. I have a current goal of being Vet Tech certified and attending the AHC Vet Tech program. I have past experience working at board/train facilities, vet clinics, and working with rescues. I treat all animals/pets as if they were my own, because that is I have open availability and a flexible schedule since I am becoming self-employed to have more focus on school and business planning for the future. I have a fenced and secured yard with ample of space to zoomie all around and play in. My house is also in a safe, quiet neighborhood where there isn't high traffic or a lot of outside noises to worry about. I always provide water throughout day and have it readily available. When it is cold, animals stay inside with me because I believe if I am cold then the animals are too. As for caring in clients' homes, it all depends on the home and the specific care that is needed. I will be sure that working in clients' homes that animals are always secured from getting loose when entering and leaving the premises. On walks, I make sure all leads, leashes, etc. are secured and fastened properly before heading outside on walks. I also will follow any strict feeding schedules and diets, since I already have experience with my pets.
“Great first experience with this app. Ellen was awesome with Hera. She read the signals Hera gave from start to finish and handled her well. Very pleased with Ellen’s services and professionalism! Would definitely book with Ellen again.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was very young. I'm a trusted, seasoned, reliable, friendly, and very loving pet sitter I currently work from home part-time and will be able to take the best care of your furry loved ones. Whatever the client needs I will make happen! :) I live near many parks, including a fenced-in dog park. I have a small and very friendly dachshund to keep your pet company and will always be present in the house to watch and take care of your pet.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mission Hills
We couldn’t be happier with the care Dayna provided for our pets while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and gave us peace of mind from the very first visit. We loved receiving the updates and knowing our cats and dogs were well cared for. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a house that was just as we left it. It’s clear that Dayna genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter! Thank you, Dayna, for treating Benelli, Mac, and our cats like they were your own. We truly appreciate everything you did for our family while we were away!

This was my second time with Anabella watching my cat and it went well! She let me know that my cat ate all his meals even though he would hide from her. Eventually he even started coming out of hiding to come meet her! She responds quickly and took great care of my Mr Muffins.
Alex consistently goes above and beyond expectations. Even after her paid time had concluded, she followed up to ensure we arrived home safely and that our pets were continued to be cared for. Her dedication and professionalism are so greatly appreciated, and I highly, highly! recommend her.
Stephanie is a life saver. She watched Koa last minute and took great care of her. She got along with her instantly. She took great care of her. She constantly checked in and sent photos. Highly recommend Stephanie to anyone needing to watch their dogs while they are away

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Mission Hills on Rover is $22.2 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 319 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mission Hills. 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 Mission Hills 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 Mission Hills. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
