“Rachel was such an incredible sitter! It shows in everything she does that she loves and cares about animals. Every time she visited my cats I got several pictures of them looking happy as well as pictures of replenished water, food and litter boxes. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Deborah is a passionate pet sitter who loves animals and is dedicated to caring for pets. I had forgotten to call the gate about her coming in the first night and she was so kind and understanding about having to come back a second time the same night to care for our kitty. She is very responsible and sent lots of photos!”
“Novia cared for our 2 cats while we were gone on an international trip. She was incredibly responsive, responsible, and clearly cared so well for our little fur babies! She sent really detailed notes about all her visits, and left my husband and I confident that our cats were in good hands.”

About: Hello! Thank you for considering me as a caregiver for your furry family member! I am deeply passionate about pets and through Rover I am excited to open my home and heart to your dog. Nothing brightens my day more than the companionship of a happy pup. As a devoted dog owner myself, I truly adore providing the security, boundless affection, and dedicated attention that every pet deserves. I am committed to being as accommodating and flexible as possible to ensure your family receives the absolute best of care. I bring responsibility, open communication and a genuine love for animals. I will ensure your fur baby is treated like a member of my own family! I am flexible on the time of day or night for your pet's day care or overnight needs. I can also arrange for pick-up and drop-off of your pet. Your pet will feel at home here! I follow strict instructions and I am flexible to your pet's needs. I have a block fenced back yard and I also allow small dogs on furniture if you wish.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats for years and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, basic routines, and giving pets plenty of attention while their owners are away. I’m active, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care fits easily into my schedule, and I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and spending quality time with your pets. I can adjust to their normal routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they’re used to. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep pets secure during walks and visits, and make sure they’re comfortable and safe at all times. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how they’re doing.
About: Hi, I’m Courtney! I’m based right in CDM steps from Crystal Cove, and I absolutely love what I do. My days are spent walking the coast, hiking the trails, and giving dogs the kind of attention and care that actually makes a difference. It’s genuinely my favorite part of my day. I’ve had dogs of my own for 15+ years and have experience with a wide range of breeds I can read body language, understand what a dog needs in the moment, and adjust on the fly. I have a special love for working breeds and high-energy dogs who actually want to do something on a walk. I work from home running a wellness business, so your dog gets real time and presence not someone rushing between jobs. Walks with me mean actual coastal adventures: Crystal Cove trails, Little Corona Beach, tide pool paths with ocean views. I’m an early riser, I keep a consistent schedule, and I pay attention to how your dog is feeling that day. My home is calm, clean, and non-toxic that’s just how I live. Good energy, no chaos, and plenty of cozy spots to decompress between adventures. You’ll get photos and updates so you always know they’re happy and well. I keep my roster small because I actually want to know your dog their quirks, their favorite spots, what makes them light up. Whether you need a reliable daily walker or someone to love on them while you travel, I’d love to meet them! 🐾 Working from home in my fitness & nutrition business means pets get constant attention and care. It's a daily dose of exercise and joy that complements my healthy lifestyle. Walks, fetch, or just quiet moments, pets make my day and yours brighter! When it comes to pet care, it's all about their turf. I'm a firm believer in maintaining their routine at home, where they're comfy and happy. I seamlessly fit into their schedule, whether it's mealtime, playtime, or cuddle time. Rest assured, your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities!
“Irina took great care of our two kitties while we were out on a trip. She was very responsive over chat, meticulously took notes for our feeding/cleaning instructions during our meet & greet, sent photos and videos each visit, and graciously cleaned up after one of them had an upset stomach while we were away. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I have always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends. I’m dependable, patient, and truly love spending time with animals—whether it’s for an outdoor stroll, engaging playtime, or relaxing together on the couch. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Thursday, but I’m often available for evening walks or drop-ins during the week. From Thursday night through Sunday night, I’m available for overnight stays or extended visits at your home. I’m not able to host pets in my own home since I have a cat who prefers to have the space to herself, but I’m more than happy to care for your pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable.

About: I’ve lived in Newport Coast for over 32 years, raised three children, and have spent decades caring for dogs as beloved family members. I’ve had three dogs of my own, each with different needs — including a blind dog, a very active dog, and one who experiences anxiety — which has given me a deep appreciation for patience, gentleness, and consistency. I’m a loving, attentive, and reliable caregiver with a calm presence. I enjoy being outdoors and truly value the one-on-one connection that comes from walking and caring for dogs. Available weekdays. Weekend mornings only, before the sun goes down as needed. Please message me to confirm availability — I’m happy to accommodate when possible. For safety and comfort, I provide services exclusively in your home. This includes dog walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits. I do not offer boarding or care in my home.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and responsibility I bring to every pet. 🐾 As both a mother and a pet mom, caring for others is already a huge part of my everyday life. I understand the importance of trust, patience, safety, routines, and attention to detail. Your pet will be cared for like part of my own family with plenty of love, playtime, and attention. I currently work part-time and remotely, which gives me the flexibility to be present and attentive to your pup’s needs throughout the day. 🐾 Whether it’s potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, walks, or simply some extra cuddles and companionship, I’m able to provide consistent care and attention while your pup is boarding with me. I have a cozy, secure space and two small furry friends of my own who are friendly and enjoy the company of other pets. 🐾 I also have young adult kids who are animal lovers, so your little critter will have plenty of extra love, attention, and helping hands during their stay. Your pet will truly be welcomed as part of our family! ❤️
“Nichole was amazing to work with! We used her last year when we came to town, and I was excited to be able to work with her again. My two pups love her! I had peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of so well. One of the best things is how well Nicole communicates. I had to make some modifications throughout the week and she was so quick to reply and very flexible. I look forward to working with her again.”


About: Hello! My name is Ella and I’m an animal lover and graduate student in Irvine. I would love the opportunity to watch your pets! I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, including my own cats since childhood. I currently have two cats that I adopted two years ago. I have extensive experience with cats, including senior kitties who need medication and extra support. While I specialize in cat care, I have also cared for many dogs as a pet sitter since middle school. As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule and can check on your pet frequently. I am available on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. I’m reliable and detail oriented, and will make sure to follow care instructions precisely. I will keep your home safe and clean for your pets while you are away.
“Polina has taken excellent care of my cat, Christof, who has complex medical needs including requiring insulin injections. She is very detail oriented and provides wonderful updates complete with photos/videos every time! Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and pets throughout my life and understand how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust with a member of your family. I’m attentive, active, dependable, and comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I enjoy walks, playtime, exercise, companionship, and giving pets plenty of individual attention. I’m also patient with animals who need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, routines, behavior, safety, and the little details that help pets feel secure while their people are away. My goal is simple: I want you to feel confident knowing your pet is safe, cared for, loved, and getting plenty of attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active. I’m able to make time for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and companionship without rushing. I like giving pets consistent attention and keeping their normal routine as comfortable and familiar as possible. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, walks, playtime, medications, doors and gates, and any special needs or behaviors. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, keep everything clean and secure, and provide updates so you know your pet is being well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’m confident your baby won’t miss mommy and daddy while in my care. We’ll spend quality time walking, running, and hiking as much as they’d like, plus plenty of cuddles in between. We can do this as my partner and I both work from home. I know exactly how hard it is to leave a pet behind, so I make sure every pet parent gets regular updates and cute photos to ease separation anxiety (I have one with my pets😉🤣). I’m also a skilled photographer, so you’ll get great shots of your baby having a blast. I’m a huge animal lover, the kind whose feed is entirely animals, including species some people find intimidating. I’ve had all kinds of pets over the years, and every one of them outlived its expected lifespan under my care. I’ve looked after family and friends’ dogs since I was a kid, and for the past several years I’ve spent a month annually caring for my aunt’s elderly dog, who is deaf and blind and only trusts me with her care. Since I’m almost always home and only leave to exercise, I can play and cuddle with your pet all day long. Being athletic myself and having easy access to great trails and walking routes nearby makes me an ideal dog walker. My partner, a former tennis player, is also an expert at fetch at the park right next to us. I work from home and barely go out because I am a homebody who loves cuddling and playing with animals all day. I love running and walking near my place and can do it as much as needed. My place is a third-floor townhome plan, and it’s 1,500 sq ft. I don’t leave my place for three hours a day unless there is a special occasion. We have three cats at home who are shy but sweet and wouldn’t ever bother the dog. They are all fully vaccinated, including rabies. We have many hiking trails, beach walks, and parks near our place, so we can go to entertain the dogs as much as they want:) If you allow us, we can take the baby for a beach day too!😉

About: Animals have been huge part of my entire life. I genuinely love caring for all pets and understanding their unique personalities, needs, and individual quirks. I’m available weekdays and Saturdays during daytime hours, making pet care a natural part of my routine. I’m dependable, flexible, and committed to providing attentive care. I have experience caring for all dogs, cats, horses, bunnies, ducks, fish, turtles, hamsters, and reptiles, plus AKC Yorkshire Terrier breeding, training, and canine behavior.
About: Though my main career is based in healthcare for humans, I do have 2 years experience working as a veterinary technician! I’m familiar with both dogs and cats species, as well as many breeds. I’m very familiar with monitoring the health and behavior of your pets and am also trained in administering medications if necessary. Knock on wood that training won’t need to be used, but rest assured that your loved ones are in good hands! PLEASE NOTE: At the moment I do not have any dogs with me here, they currently live with my sister. If having other animals in the home concerns you, rest assured that will not be a problem. I’m available for the mornings and latter part of the day I can be available for your last-minute trips and weekend needs! Need to take your kids to practice? Leave your loved one with me! Have to visit family over the weekend? Don’t worry I’m around! I’ll follow your instructions to the letter and leave your pets and your home in the exact, if not better way than you left it.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - San Joaquin Hills
Kailyr did a great job taking care of our two cats this weekend while we were away — When she came over to meet them before we left, she asked great questions and took a lot of notes, and our kitties warmed up to her immediately. While we were gone she sent lots of pictures and videos and gave us detailed notes on how they were doing and how they were during the visit. She has a lot of experience taking care of animals and is responsible and communicative — Very much recommended!

Miranda was great with taking care of our 6 year old cat. She was very communicative and sent us lots of photos of our baby during her visits. She played with her and gave us updates on how much she was eating. Our girl is shy and she warmed up to Miranda very quickly. We felt at ease knowing she was in great care while we were away. Thank you! 😻

Nancy was simply wonderful. I am so glad to have found her because she took such good care of my cats and made me feel very comfortable about leaving my cats for a couple of weeks. She was extremely professional, communicative, and I could tell she was great with pets because my very shy cats came out to greet her… so unlike them and a great sign. I would not hesitate to book her again. Thanks Nancy!!!
Deborah is a passionate pet sitter who loves animals and is dedicated to caring for pets. I had forgotten to call the gate about her coming in the first night and she was so kind and understanding about having to come back a second time the same night to care for our kitty. She is very responsible and sent lots of photos!
Isabel was a fantastic pet sitter. She sent informative daily updates along with adorable pics of our three cats. They seemed calm and happy when we returned home. Their food and litter areas were clean and organized. We so enjoyed meeting Isabel at our meet and greet and had no doubt that our beloved boys would be in capable hands while we were away.

Ziran took such wonderful care of my cat OJ while I was away. I got thoughtful updates and adorable photos every day, which reassured me a lot. When I came home, OJ was relaxed, well-fed, and his space was clean and tidy. It’s obvious that Ziran truly cares about animals and treats them like their own.

Christy was wonderful with my four cats! They are not used to being sat and some of them have particularly medical needs, but she was able to make sure they got their meds and some love while we were gone. I will definitely be asking her next time I need a sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in San Joaquin Hills on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,952 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across San Joaquin Hills. 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 Joaquin Hills. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
