About: I’ve cared for many family pets in the past, mostly smaller dogs. Because of my love for dogs, I enjoy doing research about different or watching videos, so I have a deep understanding of dog behavior, body language, and care. I’m also very active and would love another reason to get out and run! Hello, my name is Taylor and I’m currently a college student! I’m available pretty much any time of any day, especially in the early afternoon. First, I respect the routine the pet already has and would like to know all details about their current routine. I also find it important to know any injuries, medications, allergies, etc. to make sure they stay as comfortable as possible.

About: I love pets very much, I love everyone as my own and I will do it with pleasure and joy. I've had cats all my life. but when the war started - I took the puppy who was two months old because they were going to throw him out into the street. I took my baby when he was two months old, I taught him some commands, taught him to be clean, loving and polite to other people or animals❤️😌 My dog ​​has always been with me everywhere. I left him for a maximum of 4 hours a day, but gave a lot of games with food in return ;) I always watch them, see what they are doing, where they are going to go. on the street I control that they do not pick up anything in their mouths and do not flirt with other dogs (this is not always safe)

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and understand that every pet has unique needs at every stage of life. I helped care for my family’s West Highland Terrier for nearly 18 years, giving me experience with everything from energetic puppy years to the extra patience and attention senior dogs need. I also have experience caring for my parents’ young dog, dogs in my extended family and am comfortable keeping up with playful, active pets. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind that they’re in caring, dependable hands. I work as a public school music and performing arts teacher. I also teach private music lessons in the late afternoons (typically between 4:00 and 7:00 PM, Monday through Thursday), but I’m happy to work with clients to find times that fit their pets’ needs. Depending on location and scheduling, I may also be able to accommodate visits between lessons. I also have availability on Fridays and weekends, making it easier to provide reliable, consistent care. I believe communication is key and will always do my best to be flexible while ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is helping them feel comfortable by keeping them in their familiar routine. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other preferences you have for your pet’s care. Whether your pet enjoys lots of attention or prefers a quieter approach, I’ll tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own, ensuring everything is left clean, secure, and just as I found it. After each visit, I’ll send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

She played with Luna, kept the litter tidy for her, made sure her food plates were cleaned out and rotated. She has been very responsive in her communication and handled everything well while I was away on vacation. I came back to seeing everything neat and clean in the house as well.”

About: Pet care experience What sets you apart from other sitters? Be sure to include any special skills like training puppies or senior care. Book me it’s worth it. I am currently a teacher in Newark. So I am done at 4:30. To make sure I am there in time, 5:30 works best for me everyday during the weekdays. I provide reliable, attentive care by following each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of affection while keeping them safe and comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Orange on Rover is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $48 per visit. 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 27,651 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:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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 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.
