“Katherine was amazing, especially with my senior dog! She gave him his medication at the correct time, took him on lots of walks, and dealt with his separation anxiety well. I could tell she really cared and that they both enjoyed each other's company. She sent tons of cute pictures! She also did a great job of feeding my cat, who predictably decided to hide every time Katherine visited. But she wasn't alarmed by the lack of cat sightings and just reported on her feedings and how much food she had eaten between visits. I would definitely hire Katherine to petsit again! She was great!”

About: Great to meet you! I have over 14 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from dogs to cats to snakes, bearded dragons, and even ants (yes I know)... and the list goes on! Ever since I can remember, I've always loved animals (dogs especially). To fulfill my wish to have a pet, I began volunteering at a local animal shelter and would frequently visit just to spend time with some of the animals and give them some love. There, I was able to learn how to better care for our furry friends, both elderly and young. Being able to play with them was just a bonus for me! While your dog is with me they will have access to a big fenced yard to play in and enjoy. If you'd prefer them to stay in their natural environment, that's fine too! Whatever makes them most comfortable, I'm happy to provide. Every pet's needs & wants are different, which I take the time to acknowledge when caring for them. My top priority is making sure your pets are safe, loved, and content while you're away. Feel free to message me if you have any questions and I'd be happy to help! Thanks for considering me! I love to start our mornings off with a nice hike or walk at my nearby beach, typically about 2 miles. The afternoons will do a shorter walk and have some outdoor playtime. Ultimately, our day will be reflective of what your pups specific needs are. Working from home, your pets will get plenty of time and attention in my care! While boarding, they will have access to roam and play about in a fenced in yard under my supervision. Rest assured, I will take care of your babies as if they were my own. Making sure also to give you daily updates so you know your pup is well cared for!

About: I’ve had multiple pets throughout my life whom I loved and took care of well through all stages of their lives. I’ve worked with dogs on basic commands and cared for my dog that passed from years of cancer. Most of my care was toward my own pets, but I love all animals! I am currently home for the summer, and I have a pretty open schedule to walk, check in on, and pet sit! My schedule is very flexible to work with whatever time I’m needed. I have a fenced in yard with grass, as well as a pool in the backyard. I no longer have any pets of my own, but many toys!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I take the time to learn their individual personality, routines, and needs rather than treating every pet the same. I’m patient, attentive, comfortable with both cats and dogs, and experienced with keeping pets on their usual feeding, play, and potty schedules. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I work part-time, typically between 10 AM and 6 PM, which gives me flexibility before and after work for pet care. I’m able to plan visits around my work schedule and provide consistency. In my home I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at home. For dogs, I have a fenced in backyard where they can safely play, run around, and get some fresh air. For cats, I have a cat tree, cat beds, and plenty of toys for enrichment and stimulation. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine and care instructions as closely as possible, making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their own space.

About: I've lived with dogs since I was four, and have seriously cared for dogs since I was 12. My first dog lived to a grand age of 18, with loving care and judicious pet care. I currently care for 3 dogs at my home, one of whom is a large breed, and trained her from a stubborn attitude (Anatolian Shepherd-Great Pyrenees mix). My partners and friends all trust me greatly with their pets and rely on me for pet care. I currently work part time, and can work my hours around when you need me. I can stay all day with your dogs and provide necessary attention. I am comfortable with dogs of various sizes and temperaments. I can provide necessary attention, walk, crate, and clean up after your pets. I can also administer oral medication.

About: I had a dog since I was in 2nd grade, for around 15 years. I have experience in young puppy care and senior dog care. Just getting into the Rover business, but eager of learn and would love to help! So I’m currently a 3rd Resident Physician at the hospital, so I do have more time on weekends to do sit ins and walks. I miss having a dog and taking care of one so this is my way to give back! I also can do late night sit ins or walks after my shift which usually ends at 630pm. I have an apartment with a doggy park and a pet cleaning and bathing area. The doggy park is fenced with toys and water. I’m great at following instructions and will take great caution and care in others home.

About: I have always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs and other pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I am responsible, patient, and dependable. I enjoy feeding, walking, playing with, and giving pets plenty of attention and love while their owners are away. I will make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! As a Division I student-athlete at the University of New Haven, I have learned how to manage a busy schedule and stay organized. Between classes, practices, games, and studying, I make sure to plan ahead and set aside specific times for pet care. I’m responsible with my time and understand the importance of being dependable, so I only accept pet-sitting jobs that fit into my schedule. This allows me to give each pet the attention and care they deserve while still balancing my responsibilities as a student-athlete. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone in your home and with your pet. I will always treat your home with care and respect, following any instructions you provide and keeping everything clean and secure. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, while also giving you updates so you can have peace of mind. My goal is to provide reliable, respectful, and trustworthy care every time.

About: Ive grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve cared from everything dogs and cats, to reptiles and small mammals to now backyard chickens! Skills I succeed in would be caring for high energy or anxious dogs. I am looking to fill more of my schedule with fur friends walks and visits! I’ve had plenty of experience caring for animals of all kinds and dogs of many breeds. I know how stressful it can be leaving your dog with someone new to the both of you. My goal is to treat yours like they’re apart of mine. Ensuring we both have a loving, productive visit! Offering fun or productive walks in safe environments. I am comfortable administering medication if needed. Not offering boarding at moment, but I can do drop in visits. The visits will be more than just a drop in. They will receive all of the attention, playtime, enrichment and care they’re used to receiving from mom or dad at home❤️

About: I’m great with all kinds of dogs — active pups who love playtime outdoors and calm dogs who enjoy peaceful, relaxing moments. I adjust my care to fit their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I am usually pretty free during the week, but send me a message and we can find a time that works for both of us! I keep each pet’s care as consistent as possible with their normal routine. I also make sure every dog gets extra attention so they always feel safe, happy, and comfortable.

Chris has been absolutely great with our great Danes. We have three, all of whom, take some time to warm up to strangers and Chris was able to build a level of trust with them during the initial meet and greet. They respond well to him when he is visiting for our drop in services. We've used Chris' services about four times and the level of trust we were able to build with him is by far what makes us feel confident to re-book when we are traveling out of town. Highly suggest you consider Chris whenever you need someone to care for your loved ones while youre away from home.

Heather was phenomenal! Jasper warmed up to her right away, which is surprising! Jasper gave me a kiss when I came home so I guess he doesn’t want to trade me in yet! The litter was clean and Heather took the time to vacuum up the litter and fur that Jasper inevitably leaves all over. We are so pleased with the care she took and the love and time she took with him. Thank you so much Heather!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Orange

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Orange is $28 per visit as of October 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 October 2026, there are 3,415 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 .

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 , 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:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
