We had a great experience with Cindi. She was great! We look forward to using her again in the future. Nellie loved her and we loved the photos of him having fun on their walk.

Melanie was super friendly and super attentive with our cats. She took great care of them, and the house was very clean when we returned home. We will definitely use her again for our next trip away from home. Our cats warmed up to her well and I enjoyed that she seemed to spend some quality time with them besides just feeding them and changing their litter box. Thank you again Melanie!!!

Exceptional Care for Two Special-Needs Cats Jennifer provided outstanding care for our two cats during a three-day trip, and we couldn’t be more grateful. One of our cats is diabetic and requires glucose monitoring along with insulin injections twice daily. Our other cat has chronic kidney disease, so careful observation of food and water intake, litter box habits, and overall behavior is extremely important. Jennifer handled every aspect of their care with professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine compassion. She kept us informed with regular updates, closely monitored both cats, and quickly noticed even subtle changes in their routines and behaviors. It was clear that she treated our pets as if they were her own. Knowing that our diabetic cat was receiving accurate glucose readings and insulin injections on schedule gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Caring for senior cats with medical needs requires experience, reliability, and dedication, and Jennifer exceeded our expectations in every way. We returned home to two happy, healthy, and well-cared-for cats. We highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and compassionate pet sitter, especially for pets with medical conditions. We will absolutely be booking with her again. — Valerie & Family 🐾

About: I have had several dogs in my life through their entire life span. I recently lost my soul dog. Not ready to get another but because they bring me so much joy, I would love to take care of others. I have the time because I am retired. I also know the feeling of worrying that they are in the best care! I can assure you that they will be! I am retired for the most part. I teach yoga a few hours a week but I have plenty of time. I can take your dog for several walks, AM or PM. I do not have a fenced in yard but do have a very long leash to allow freedom in the yard. I also live in a great neighborhood with lots of dogs. My dog recently passed but we used to take lots of daily walks and had lots of interactions.

Jenna was very responsive. She respected my home but more importantly she took care of my 2 kitties for about 10 days. She made sure all their needs were cared for (fresh water, food and clean litter). I felt good about leaving them with Jenna.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me! My mom is a veterinary technician, and between her experience and having five dogs of our own (plus fostering dogs!), I've had the opportunity to be around all kinds of personalities, ages, and energy levels. I've also been dog sitting for over 10 years for friends, family, neighbors, and other pet owners. As a recent college graduate with a degree in Early Childhood Education, I'm responsible, dependable, and pay close attention to details. If your dog has a specific routine, I'll make sure to follow it! Whether it's feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, or extra cuddles, I'm happy to provide the care your pup is used to. I'm spending the summer living at the beach, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the dogs in my care! I truly love spending time with animals. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I'll treat your pup like family and do everything I can to give you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work part-time at a gym with flexible hours, and my shifts are usually no more than five hours long. This gives me plenty of time to provide your pet with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve! I care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable and can maintain their normal routine. I follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special requests. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away, while also giving you peace of mind knowing they are in reliable hands!

About: I’ve been taking care of and handling a variety of dog breeds since I was little. I’m actively working at a grooming salon, giving me reoccurring, daily, hands-on experience with a mixture of different breeds and sized dogs. I grew up with three dogs, and throughout the years I’ve done pet-sitting for numerous different sized dogs. I’m an active volunteer for an animal shelter, and have been with them for around 8 years. I have first aid/CPR certification for both cats and dogs! I’m currently working part-time, which leaves me available past 2pm every weekday for any pet services you may need! Weekend availability varies depending on the dates. I’ve been handling dogs and cats for many years. I am also First Aid/CPR certified for dogs and cats by Red Cross. Your fur babies safety is my top priority. I’m flexible with accommodating to any special requirements some pets may have in order to give them the best and safest experience possible.

Jennifer did an amazing job taking care of our elderly girl for an extended period of time. She kept us up to speed every visit with details about the visit and photos. We did not have to be concerned at all as we truly knew she was taking wonderful care of our dog. Jennifer went above and beyond helping us while she was at the house so we could relax and enjoy our trip. 10 out of 10 Highly recommend

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Ocean View

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Ocean View on Rover is $18.87 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 485 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ocean View. 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 Ocean View 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 Ocean View. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
