“Lyndsay is so fantastic! She was able to stop in to check on my pets. My dog takes some time to warm up to people, and Lyndsay gave him the time and space he needed to get comfortable with her. She made sure he ate, got to go outside, and sent pictures and updates and followed his routine perfectly! My very shy cat even came out of hiding to say hello too - highly recommend and would absolutely have Lyndsay watch my pets again!”

“Thank you so much Megan for helping with our two cats. We had never left the baby alone and he was quite the terror, but you were super professional and took care of all of their needs regardless.”

“Desiree is a wonderful dog sitter! She is extremely knowledgable, enthusiastic, and kind. She is an excellent communicator, always letting me know exactly how my puppy did, what commands they practiced, and when she arrives/leaves. I have peace of mind that my puppy is in great hands when I’m nor there. I love that she helps him practice leash-walking and his commands, plays with toys, and even sets up developmentally-appropriate games with him.”

“Fabi is kind and patient with my reactive and scared dogs. It is hard to find a sitter for my dogs because they are not “fun” and need a lot of patience. Fabi accepted the challenge and did a great job with them on her first go. I am booking her weekly.”

About: I have a dog of my own, and I’ve taken care of many people’s dogs over the years. From puppies to older dogs, and dogs with medical needs. I’ll make sure that your fur babies are well cared for! I’m finishing up college, my classes take place in the morning and are relatively short. The rest of my classes are online. So my schedule is pretty much open anytime. I’m big on pet safety and will follow in instructions given to help care for your pet. I’m not currently doing boarding for cats or dogs.

About: I have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own, I am used to all types and kinds of animals. I have experience with calm, slower/older pets that require medication administration. I have experience with young animals or loud hyper animals as well. I have helped on agricultural farms as well in school setting. I fortunately have a job as a nurse at night time (12hrs 3x week schedule) that allows me a lot of time in my week to play and care for my pets and others. I find this side job nice to spend time with fuzzy friends and exercise them/ myself lol. I would feel more comfortable to sit pets in the safety and comfort of their own home. They are familiar with that space and I think for myself as the sitter and pet it would be most appropriate.

About: I've had pets my whole life, a Boxer when I was little! So big dogs don't scare me. I also have experience with cats. I have one super sweet kitty back at home and one... not so much. I get how to handle all kinds of personalities! I'm good with puppies, teaching them the basics, and I'm really patient with older pets. I'll make sure your fur baby is happy and gets all the love while you're gone! So give me a text or call. Pet care totally fits into my daily and weekly routine! I'm used to the whole feeding, litter box cleaning, and playtime routine with my cats. I'm super responsible about it. And growing up with a dog, I'm used to the whole walking, feeding, and poop-scooping thing as well! I know how important it is to keep things consistent for pets, so I'll make sure to stick to their regular schedule and give them lots of attention. When I'm caring for pets in my home I make sure they have a safe and comfy space set up just for them! I know my cats like little beds so I always make sure they each have their own or more. I'll keep them on their regular feeding schedule and make sure they get plenty of playtime and cuddles. If I'm caring for pets in your home, I'll follow all your instructions super carefully. I'll make sure to keep everything clean and tidy, and I'll send you updates and pics so you know your fur baby is doing great! (Not available anymore since I am in a dorm)

About: I have been responsible for pet care since I was a child, I grew up in a house with 3+ dogs at any given time. I was taught to treat animals with the kindness and respect that you would a human being! I adopted my current dog 2 years ago! I am a student at Cal State Fullerton currently on summer break, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your cats and dogs! I have always been a very cautious and cleanly person, and leaving your home and your pet better than how I found it it my top priority! I have no trouble cleaning up after animals and it’s important to me that I treat your pet and your home with respect.

“Monica is a great sitter and animal lover, she's good at following instructions and was great with my kitties while I was away. Tallulah responded well to Monica and enjoyed her visits, Precious is always shy, but eventually got used to her visits. Communication was mostly great, but could be improved. I arranged an emergency sitter for one visit due to a lack of communication/slow response. Overall, Monica was a reliable sitter and the cats would be happy to see her again. I would recommend Monica and would hire her again, so long as she's clear about availability and visiting times.”

About: Besides being the proud dad of a 2 year old Pitt Bull mix, I have grown up with dogs and raising them from puppies even to when they are old puppers. I have seen and lived with all dog ages and stages. Also with Cats, at one point I lived with 13 of them. No kidding, my parents are big cat lovers and they cared for them as if they were their own children. I am thankful to my parents for providing me a rich life with animals, I have learned countless lessons and experienced much because of the love of animals and humans I am available Monday through Friday at any time you may require help. Let me know what works for you, thank you so much for trusting me with the care of your furry loved one. I personally believe animals of any species, furry or scaly or even with eight eyes, deserve to be treated with the same respect and care as humans do. I love my two cats and my dog as if they were my own children, so you can rest assured that your family will be treated with the utmost care and respect.

About: Every time I visit my friends I spend (at least) 10 minutes catching up with their pets. As an owner of multiple dogs, I understand the patience, firmness and delicacy that goes into caring for a pet. Your children will be in responsible hands! I work Monday nights & Saturday/Sunday mornings. The remainder of my time will be dedicated strictly to nurturing your pets! I will walk them every morning and night and make sure they feel loved while they’re parents are away! I will walk the dogs at least twice a day (morning & after dinner) to make sure they’re staying active and cared for. I will feed then as necessary and spend tons of quality time with them!

About: I’ve had three cats almost my entire life, and have watched friends’ and neighbors’ cats so I am well versed in making sure they have the care they need! This past year, I got a handful of dog sitting gigs including two hyper golden retrievers and a senior terrier. I’m currently a full time college student home from break looking for something to do to help pay for school! I have full availability open! I am a big rule follower! Please let me know what care your animals need in your home and I’ll follow it to a T.

We had a good experience with Akiera while we were away on vacation. She was friendly and engaging with our cats, making an effort to get to know them and interact with them during her visits. She provided photos and updates throughout our trip and also helped bring in packages. We appreciated having someone check in on our kitties each morning and make sure they were cared for while we were away!

Yerim was amazing with our cat while we were on vacation. She was so thoughtful and caring with our shy cat! You can tell she really loves animals! Our cat is shy but by the end of the trip he was greeting Yerim at the door purring! She is also great at communicating and responds very quickly. We loved all the photos and videos she sent of our kitty while we were gone! We knew he was in great hands while we were away. I would 100% book her again!

Sarah was AMAZING!! So communicative and eager to go above and beyond for my kitty. My cat doesn’t like new people and Sarah was extremely patient and understanding of her needs. She gave a play by play of what was going on, and offered to clean up the litter and hairball/vomit which happened while she was checking on my cat. Will absolutely book again, and I’d recommend Sarah to anyone needing a drop in sitter.

Chandler took excellent care of our senior cat Chonky. She was very attentive to Chonky's needs. She gave him amply play time, brushed him and pet him. She also took care of feeding, giving him water top ups, taking out the trash, cleaning the dishes and litter boxes. She also vacuumed the tracked litter off the floor. We definitely recommend Chandler for your cat care needs!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Placentia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Placentia is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $37 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 2,423 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Placentia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Placentia. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% 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.

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.
