So glad we found Holly!! She is super reliable and came on time for our drop ins every day. I left super specific instructions and she followed them perfectly! Our pup is slow to warm up to new people, but she spent extra time with him to make sure he actually went outside to stretch his legs and do his business. She left very thorough post visit notes and uploaded so many great photos. I truly felt that he was in great hands while I was away. We will be using Holly’s services again!

About: I had a boston terrier and doberman as pets. Though I don’t have professional experience in taking care of dogs, I love taking care of people and pets. I’m open to learning, observant, communicative. I’m a nurse who works 3 days a week, studying part time and I am seeking for tasks I can do during my free time. I currently do not have pets at home right now. I have more interest in walking pets and drop-in visits. I also have the patience and strength to wall bigger dogs as I had a doberman who was 1-2 yrs old.

About: For the past 5 years I've pet sat for family and friends, especially during the summer. Many have suggested I venture out to pet sit on the side because they love how I care for their pets. Pets are part of the family and I understand the importance of a trusting pet sitter. Your pets safety and well being will always be my priority! Hi pet parents! 🐾 To make sure I can give your fur babies the best care possible, here is a quick update on my current availability and my upcoming schedule: Current Work Days & Late-Night Walks On the days you see blocked off on my calendar, I am working my day job from 7:00 AM to 7:30 PM. Need a late-night walk? Please still reach out! I am happy to accommodate later evening walks or drop-ins on my work days once I wrap up. Upcoming Fall Schedule (Starting August 31) I will be starting my nursing school classes, which means my weekday availability will shift a bit: Mondays & Tuesdays: Unavailable 8:00 AM – 11:35 AM Thursdays & Fridays: Unavailable 6:30 AM – 2:55 PM Note: Outside of these specific class blocks, I am highly flexible! If you need care on these days, send me a message and we can easily work around my school hours. Looking forward to seeing your pups and kitties soon! 😊 My priority is the safety and well being of your pet! I thoroughly review all the information provided of your pet and communicate any questions I may have. I make an effort to know feeding schedules, potty preferences and activity schedules before meeting your pet. My goal is make sure your pet feels at home with zero disruption to their routine.

About: Hi! My name is Alexis, and animals have always been one of the biggest joys in my life. I absolutely love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have two dogs and five cats of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and commitment that pets need every day. If you know me, you know I’m the person who gets excited every time I see a dog on a walk or a cat lounging outside. I’m always the first one asking if I can pet a dog, and I never pass by a stray animal without trying to make sure it has food, water, or a little kindness. My love for animals is genuine, and spending time with them never feels like a job to me. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for my own pets when they’ve been sick. Whenever one of my cats or dogs needed medication, special care, or extra attention, I was usually the one making sure they got what they needed. Because of this, I’m comfortable following care instructions and being patient with pets who may need a little extra support. In addition to my experience with animals, I work in healthcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to pay attention to details, follow routines, and provide quality care—skills that I bring with me when caring for pets as well. I’m often the go-to pet sitter for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable to care for their pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, medication administration, or simply keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work night shift, which means my days are usually free and very flexible. Because of that, I have plenty of time and availability to dedicate to walking, drop-ins, and spending quality time with pets during the day. I actually love that my schedule allows me to be fully present when I’m caring for animals—I’m not rushing between work or distracted by a 9–5 schedule. I can give pets my full attention, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, feeding routines, playtime, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. My routine also makes it easy for me to be consistent and reliable with scheduling. I’m used to balancing responsibilities and working odd hours, so I’m very organized and good at sticking to care instructions and time-sensitive routines. Overall, my flexible daytime availability makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle, and I really enjoy being able to spend that time doing something I genuinely love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as relaxed as possible while their owners are away. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can keep things consistent and familiar for them. I approach every visit with patience and calm energy, letting pets warm up to me at their own pace. Whether it’s feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just spending quiet time together, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following instructions. If a pet has a specific feeding schedule, medication routine, or special care needs, I make sure everything is done exactly as requested. I have experience administering medications and caring for pets with extra medical needs, so I’m comfortable handling those responsibilities with care and reliability. While I’m in the home, I also make sure everything stays clean, respectful, and as you left it. My goal is not only to care for your pet, but to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands and your home is being respected. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own—always with love, patience, and attention to their unique personality.

Hector was the best taking care of my cat! He was extremely responsible and careful and followed all my instructions to take care of Kitty. I had to travel to my home country for a couple of weeks, and having Hector around made me feel comfortable. He was super responsive to the texts and always made sure he posted an update for me for every visit. He kept my place clean, brought in any packages that were outside of my apartment and took care of everything I asked him to do. I could also see how well he treated Kitty, and how he played with her and pet her. My cat really adores him. He was also super polite with me and it was a pleasure dealing with him. I will definitely call Hector next time a need a sitter, I know my cat will be on the best hands! Thanks a lot, Hector, you are the best! :-)

About: Hi there! I'm Joanna. I have experience in training puppies as well as watching over senior dogs. I can say I have a lot of patience and I understand how some dogs can be timid at first, but no worries I'm here to help bring out their confidence! I have always spent my time with dogs from a very young age. My dogs enjoy it when we go out for a hike, walk, or play dates at the dog park and I can definitely provide that for you if requested. Trust is one of the most important things and I know I will be able to provide that for you and your fur baby. I am a full-time student, but since the classes I'm taking are online, I can still be attentive to your fur baby at any moment! I currently only live with my small-sized dog, Archie. He is super friendly and enjoys going on walks, especially when he walks with other dogs. I understand how important they are in our lives and I definitely consider my dogs as my children so I would treat your pets just as how I would treat mine! I understand how every dog is different and they have different routines, but booking with an experienced dog sitter will ensure they get their needs met while giving you peace of mind!

Mayra was great! She met with me before the engagement to meet my dogs and make sure she knew what they needed, and communicated after each walk. Best of all, both of my guys were relaxed and happy to see me without being frantic when I got back. That's the real sign of a great sitter. Will definitely use again.

I booked Ana to take care of my cat while I was away and it was my first time using Rover. She was very communicative, the meet and greet went well, and my cat totally trusted her off the bat. She paid close attention to detail while following my pets regular routine and my pet felt right at home while I was away. Would definitely trust Ana to take care of my cat again, she was great!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - San Fernando

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in San Fernando on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 7,455 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across San Fernando. 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 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.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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.
