About: I have cared for pets of all kinds since I was 16, and we also have had a sweet baby 🐕 of our own for the last 8 years. When I lived near friends that all had dogs, I was always the go-to pet sitter. Our girl would love to have a playmate for a few days and I look forward to being able to dote on your dog with lots of walks and outside adventures, if they like! My schedule can be highly variable, but I work from home a lot of the time. I can provide a lot of undivided and individualized attention to your dog, with regular outside time and walks. We have a small fenced backyard and a decent-sized lawn out front. There is a large park nearby and we love going for walks in the neighborhood. We have 1 very sweet and shy 30-lb dog that loves to play (and especially loves puppies).
About: Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and pets of all kinds. I rescued my dog, Clayton, 14 years ago, and he recently passed away in February 2026 at the incredible age of 15. Through that journey, I gained firsthand experience caring for a pet through every stage of life, from the energetic younger years to the extra patience and attention senior pets need. I understand the patience, consistency, and love animals deserve, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were part of my own family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, administering routines, or simply providing companionship, your pet will be in caring and reliable hands. Living in an apartment has given me a strong understanding of the importance of regular potty breaks, exercise, and maintaining a consistent routine for dogs. Before leaving the house, I always make sure dogs get at least two potty breaks, followed by no fewer than three additional outings once I return home. Pets in my care are treated like family and are welcome to relax comfortably throughout my apartment, including on the couch and bed. I also enjoy taking long walks around my neighborhood and would love to bring your furry friend along for fresh air, exercise, and extra attention throughout the day. During the week, I split my time between two office locations — one in Anaheim near Honda Center and the other in Corona del Mar near Fashion Island. My typical schedule has me away from home from about 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, while Fridays are fully remote and offer much more flexibility. If your pet has specific needs, routines, or requires additional attention, please let me know. I’m happy to coordinate flexibility within my work schedule whenever possible to ensure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve.

“Lisa was perfect for our 3 cats. She updated us whenever anything odd or important happened, or the cats had any issues. She sent us lots of updates and photos, so we could see how they were doing. She maintained their bowls and boxes wonderfully, and played with them a lot. The cats did great while we were gone, and we were so happy with how happy they seemed.”

About: Hi, I’m Talia! I’m a huge animal lover with lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve fostered both dogs and cats and have experience with behaviorally complex and reactive dogs, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and needs.

I’m also experienced with reactive and behaviorally complex dogs and understand the importance of following each pet’s routine, boundaries, and individual needs. For drop-ins and walks, I’m careful to keep pets secure and closely supervised in their own home and neighborhood.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I've cared for my own dogs from playful puppies to their senior years, giving them love, structure and companionship every day.

About: For the past fifteen years I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs. I’ve been available to family and friends to walk, feed, and house their pets while they travel. I work full time, but I’m home in the evenings and weekends which leaves plenty of time for play time and long walks with your fur babies.

About: From small, shy cats to big, boisterous dawgs, I provide detail-oriented, specialized care by applying my former experience as a data scientist and my boundless stamina gained from my hobbies in various martial arts and combat sports.

I've have a love for dogs since childhood and learned to love cats as well, through helping an extra spicy cat grow into a cuddly, purr-filled one. I'm available for Drop-in Visits on Saturday from 9am-11pm. Wednesday availability is 9am-5pm. Friday availability is 1pm-11pm. Please reach out for any questions! The safety of your pet is my priority! Awareness and avoidance(as needed) of other people or dogs on walks, clearing and watching out for certain foods, plants, materials etc. that are unsafe for consumption, double and triple checking locks and that doors are properly closed, especially on entry and exit. My first mission with your pet will be to ensure safety and build trust so that they know that I am their temporary caregiver and permanent friend!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Orange
Raquel was an amazing sitter for my cat Tater Tot! She was communicate and proactive before the visits to get all the details. On her visit days she spent lots of time, followed all the instructions, went above in beyond in getting my shy cat to interact. She kept me updated and gave me real peace of mind while I was out of town. I highly recommend her!!
Kirsten was amazing during her drop in visit with my pup! She made sure to give her extra special care and attention while I was away and kept me updated with excellent communication. I really appreciated how well she took care of my girl and would definitely book with her again!🐾
Best sitter I had so far! Very meticulous and detail oriented; got a daily detailed rover card that includes what was done for that day with multiple photos (20+ photos)! My cat looked very comfortable throughout the visits. Even brought her own trash bag to clean the litter out daily to keep the house clean throughout. I felt very reassured that my cat was in good hands!! Would definitely hire again next time when I need a sitter!
Emma is one of the best sitters I've found on here! She is attentive, punctual, and very detail oriented. My cat doesn't give an eff for strangers, but she took to a liking with Emma almost immediately! It made the trip away super easy knowing that Emma was taking amazing care of my furry idiot.
Mel was such a blessing to us! She helped us out in several last-minute situations while we were staying at an RV resort in Orange, and we’re so grateful we found her. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Winston was with someone who was trustworthy, reliable, caring, and genuinely kind. She took wonderful care of him, and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her hands. We would absolutely love to have Mel watch Winston again the next time we’re in the area. It’s such a great feeling knowing that when we come back, we have someone we can depend on. Thank you so much for everything, Mel! ❤️🐾
Tessa provided great care for my cat during daily drop-in visits. She took care of food, water, treats, litter box, and play time. I really appreciate the daily updates and photos left with each check-in on the app. She followed directions very well. I would highly recommend Tessa’s services!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Orange is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 12,857 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Orange. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Orange. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
