Amy took wonderful care of our kitty while we were away. Everything looked great upon our return and our kitty was happy and content. She provided pictures and updates at every visit (2 visits a day) and we couldn’t be happier with everything. She genuinely cares about doing a great job and it really comes through.

About: My love for pets stemmed from a young age. I grew up owning many dogs and I now currently own a handsome cane corso who I rescued. I had been a Vet assistant for a little more than 3 years, working with all kinds of dogs and cats from various ages. I also have plenty of experience with pets who may need a special diet, medication, or routine ! Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to my vet assistant job not too long ago due to me leaving for the military. I’m available whenever and anytime as I am always free now. Needed something more flexible for the time i’m still here ! I have pet sit for clients in their home before, many clients from my last hospital would need pet sitters and my team and I always would lend a hand. I have also cared for many friends and families pets as well while they are away. I always follow the needs of your home and pet !

Rachel is amazing and wonderful. So glad we found her to check in on our 3 dogs. All our dogs are comfortable with her and enjoy her company. She is detail oriented and makes sure our dogs are well taken care of. She takes pictures and videos of them when she drops in for a visit. She is also super flexible and understanding when we have change of plans. Pick Rachel as your go to Rover person!

Angey did a really good job of keeping me updated on my cats and was even able to capture some pictures of my reclusive girls which gave me comfort knowing they were OK. I felt confident knowing they were being checked on and given fresh food and water.

We couldn’t have ask for better pet caretakers with Syndie and Jack! This was our first vacation away from our kittens and we couldn’t have been luckier to have them care for our precious little gems. From day one, they were punctual, friendly, and thorough with our kittens. They took plenty of cute pictures and left thoughtful notes with every visit, quickly easing our worries. They were super responsive and caring. It’s so obvious they are true animal lovers and are a rare find. To top that off, we came back from our vacation to discover a heartfelt, hand-written card and treats for our cats! We can’t believe this is our first experience with pet sitters as I don’t know how anyone else will ever do a better job! We can’t say thank you enough and we hope we will be lucky enough to have Syndie and Jack care for our cats in the near future! Five stars all the way!

David is a patient, kind, and lovely human. He has been working with our protective and reactive dog, Momo, for a few months, and after being rejected by more than one doggy hotel and more than one dog sitter, we are so so happy to see Momo’s progress with David. Momo had her first successful, stress-free weekend by herself with David dropping in and taking her on walks. We are so thrilled and thankful to David for staying patient with Momo’s sass-itude and having his help has improved Momo’s life and our lives significantly! 🩷

About: The reflection of a person reflects how a domesticated animal will come to be. Thoughts like these make me want to understand more of why we were put on this world. Animals make me happy. They do things so flowingly and naturally and it’s so unique because it’s so simple. They don’t want to do it, they just do it. Each dog and cat all have their quirks and differences which is why they are so special to me being that all animals are special as well. These thoughts and experiences help me into exploring more of what I want to be as a person with animals and how this could help me to become what I aspire in being and beyond. I go to the gym almost everyday about an hour and a half. I go out most of the weekends usually between 2pm to 1am. 3 adults also live in our household and they already take care of most of the pets in our household. Every single moment counts as animals are in every single moment as well since they are being. To this moment I am still learning to understand all of my pets, they all have their differences and that is what I love so much. I have be different with each one. Adapting is such a big challenge for me because it can require a vast amount of patience and effort. Sometimes things will not go the way you want it to and that’s ok. There will always be another moment to try. These thoughts and reasons are what I want to apply when I’m studying new animals and how I can gain their trust.

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with family pets and am currently a dog aunt to a Dutch Sheperd named Ali! My friend is an animal trainer so I learned how to both train with treats and redirect behaviors. I love cuddling and advocating for pets and hope to get to hang with more! I’m currently between jobs and working to get to grad school for psychology so I have a lot of time to help with pets friends I make sure that the environment is in the client’s home and look to see if there’s anything a dog can get over. I also make sure I know where leish (and treats are with permission) and build trust with the dog before taking it for a walk.

Taylor was absolutely AMAZING! It was our first time going out of town so we were particularly nervous how our cat would take it. Taylor put our minds at ease. She was punctual, professional, kind, and is clearly passionate about her work with animals. Shes an absolute gem! We will definitely use Taylor next time we go out of town. Thank you Taylor!!!

About: I have lived with animals all my life, usually a combination of cats and dogs. I always ensure the pets I take care of feel safe and at home. I have also owned a hamster and a frog so far! Im currentlly between full time jobs, so I can make taking care if your animal my full time job if needed! I still plan on sitting once I get settled because I love caring for animals anyways. I am immensely patient, and will try my best to ensure trust can be built between myself and your pet when caring for them. I love playing with pets and my past dogs were always hard leash pullers.

Emelia took wonderful care of my 3 cats while I was away. She came by to feed them, but also took the initiative to bring a brush and a toy so that she could engage with them. In the pictures she sent, they appeared very comfortable and happy. She was successful at getting even my most distrustful kitty to play with the feather-on-a-string, When I returned home, the kitties looked content and everything in the kitty room was super clean. I highly recommend her and hope that I can use her services again in the future.

I was really impressed with Kelsey's kind and sweet ways with my Sammy! He doesn't warm up to easily, and this would have been the very first time I would have left him with a sitter. I have got to say Sam liked Kelsey very much, and came and laid by her, and ate his treats, and really warmed up to her and made me feel oh so comfortable for when I do have to leave him in the future. Kelsey sent me notices when she was on her way here and had wonderful conversation with me once she got here, since I was unable to attend my trip. She was so caring, I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again to take care of Sam, especially now that I have gotten to know her, and was able to see her interact with my precious Sammy. Kelsey was Great!

Shannon took the best care of our four pets. We have a senior dog who is an escape artist, two crazy kittens, and a big dog who can really be scared of new people and Shannon was amazing with all of them. Each pet took to her so naturally and she handled all the little nuances of special feeding needs and general pet chaos perfectly! We will use Shannon for any future pet needs

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Denise for taking care of Gemma (& all the house hiccups) this past holiday week! She kept our minds at peace while we were back East thousands of miles away. Perhaps the best compliment I can give Denise...I have had about a dozen sitters over the past 10 years and Gemma was the most calm and like herself upon our return out of any sitting experience I have ever had. So grateful for you, Denise!

The best cat sitter I’ve ever had. She was extremely attentive and my cats loved her. When I came home it was as if I never left. Cats were not stressed or needed. They were very loved and well taken care of. She even notified me when cats had an accident called me for clean up and did a check up. Very thorough and attentive. I would highly recommend Kirra and she will Be my Permanent pet sitter. 5 star.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - San Juan Capistrano

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in San Juan Capistrano on Rover is $22.2 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 3,168 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across San Juan Capistrano. 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 Juan Capistrano. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
