“I’m so glad Megan was available to take care of our shy, curious cat. She was great with the special instructions we had for our cat and plants. Sebby always hides from new people, but he really warmed up to her! Even when we were on vacation, we were eager to read her extremely well written updates. At the end, she said thanks for the chance to spend time with him. So thoughtful! Would definitely ask if she’s available the next time we need a sitter.”
“Jenn was great with our cats! Would definitely hire her again. She came and met us and the cats early so she knew where things were. She cleaned the litter boxes. She took time to send pictures everyday. She played with the cats.”
About: Hi, Carson here. For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had a passion with animals. Since I was a kid, I’ve never had a day without a pet accompany in my life. Over the past 30 years, I had 4 dogs and 3 cats, and currently with my wife Casey we have 2 cats. All of our fur babies were either strays or coming from shelters. We always wanted to do more for the animals and with years of experience in taking care of animals with all ages we think this is a good place for us to take the first step of our calling. I am a business consultant who works from home so my schedule is very flexible and can accommodate your schedule during the weekdays as wells as weekends. As fur parents, we understand how anxious and uneasy it can be when you have to travel away from your fur babies. We assure you that we would treat your pets like our own and take good care of them so you can have a peace of mind and enjoy your time away worry free.
“I booked Anne last minute to drop in on my cat Louise a couple times over a weekend I was away, and she was truly a lifesaver! I didn’t have to worry about Louise one bit. Anne was timely, communicative, and clearly loves and is comfortable with animals. Highly recommend!”
“I highly recommend Chelsea for any pet owner lives in Orange. She is a warm, friendly and thoughtful person. When we're gone, she sends us updates and photos and is very responsive to our texts. My cat and dog have very well cared. I am very happy that I found Her in Rover and very grateful for her work!”
“Ashley is a dream come true. She is attentive to details, kind, helpful, and amazing with communication! Our kitties loved her and she sent helpful daily updates. She asked what toys they like, got to know their unique behavior, and juggled their probiotics/fiber regimen with ease. Ashley was also flexible and was available to extend the booking when we ended up having to prolong our trip. Although we had to leave town for a family member's medical emergency, Ashley's kindness and fantastic communication meant less stress for us because we did not have to worry at all about our pets. Will 100% rebook Ashley the next time we need a pet sitter!”
“Wendy did a wonderful job watching our 2 little dogs Theo and Owen. They require special food preparation and supplements and she took extra care to see that it was done properly. She sent many photos throughout our trip which made us feel connected and confident that the dogs were well cared for.”
“Today’s was Mairas first time doing a drop in it visit with canelo while I was at work and she did great she sent me pics and he seems very happy playing with her , she fed him and even gives her his paw. The first time she walked him canelo seemed to instantly trust and like her and today’s drop in visit just further proves it. We will definitely continue you booking with Maira.”
“Sarah took such great care of my cat while i was away! Sarah is very friendly and a great communicator—even my cat warmed up to her immediately. I am so happy that I can trust my cat is in good hands!”
“Christina is wonderful to work with. She cared for our cats as if they were her own. She was attentive to the cats (we have 3) played with them, gave them treats, and love. Although we have one cat that she never go to see because he is a super shy guy, she did get to see the other two. We got daily updates and check-ins. I highly recommend Christina and will continue to use her every time we go out of town.”
“Shea is amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my baby while I was out of town. I met with her and her spouse prior and my cat took to them right away. I received multiple pictures, videos and daily updates with how things were going. Shea was even willing to stay extra time to help should I get have any travel delays, luckily that didn't happen. So happy to have someone my little pixie was so happy to have watch her and also trust checking in on her when I dont have anyone. I dont know what I would do without you!!! I wish I could give more stars!”
“Berto did a terrific job watching my cat Manny. He is reliable and has a warm demeanor that made Manny comfortable enough to not hide under the bed like he usually does with visitors. That’s an impressive achievement. Berto was communicative and shared great photos and a video of Manny from his visits. I highly recommend Berto for your pet.”

Just finished our first pet sit with Jenn, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided for our three kitties! She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire week, which we really appreciated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our cats also seemed very comfortable with her, which means a lot to us. We’ll definitely be requesting Jenn’s services again in the future and highly recommend her!
We always turn to Ashley first for pet care for our two cats! She is extremely reliable, communicative, kind, reassuring, and proactive. It bring so much peace of mind when she is caring for our cats because we never have to worry, and her communication and thoughtfulness are incredible!
Mirae is the cat whisperer! My kitties are so shy that they hide from everybody. The minute someone comes to the door they are just streaks diving under the bed. But they let Mirae pet them and even asked for attention. Mirae was faithful to the times I requested and sent pictures so I could see how good the kitties were.doing. I will definitely be using Mirae’s services again!
Yermin did a great job with my kitty and dog. She had no problem "job sharing" with a friend of mine, who came by twice a day to walk the pup and Yermin came by each evening to make sure kitty and pup were fed and got him out for his last pee of the day before bed. She was very responsive when contacted and she was always in communication. Also sent lots of photos, which I love!
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!
We went on a trip for a few days and Karyn helped us care for our 5-year old cat, Luna. Karyn is compassionate and loving, who takes great care of Luna. Karyn communicates well and is very responsive. We are 100% satisfied and we would recommend her service to friends.
Akiera was absolutely exceptional. From the start, she was professional, responsive, and clearly experienced with cats. She kept us updated consistently with photos and detailed messages, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our cat was calm, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her presence. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. I would confidently recommend Akiera to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and attentive cat sitter. We will definitely be booking her again.
We truly can’t recommend our pet sitter enough. They go above and beyond every single time they care for our pet while we’re out of the country. They are incredibly flexible, highly responsive, and always keep us updated, which gives us so much peace of mind. You can genuinely tell they truly care about the animals they look after. We feel extremely lucky to have found someone so reliable and compassionate. Thank you for everything!
Absolutely fantastic job! I was super nervous at first because this is my first car ever and he is very new to the household, but Angelica did a fantastic job with her check in. She gave tons of updates, photos and videos. She cleaned his litter, played with him a bunch and gave him tons of attention while I was gone. Huge recommend!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Placentia on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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 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.
