About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for years through pet sitting, dog walking, fostering kittens, and running cat adoption events. I have also taken care of a variety of different animals, and with all my various experiences, I am a reliable and confident caretaker. My goal is to take care of your pet with love and care, and prioritize your expectations! Pet sitting and walking is my current job, so my schedule is always open! I have time every day to either walk dogs, do checks in, and watch pets overnight and/or for extended periods. I always keep a watchful eye on any animal in my care. I never let dogs go off leash (unless that is specifically asked of me), and I make sure to spend quality time with pets.

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: 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 !

About: Hi! I’m Bree. I’ve always had animals in my life, and I genuinely love being around them. I currently have two cats of my own, and I’ve lived with several roommates’ dogs over the years, which means I’ve spent a lot of time caring for different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve learned how to read their moods, understand their needs, and make them feel comfortable and safe. I also have a close friend who is a professional pet trainer, and I often ask them for advice whenever I want to make sure I’m doing what’s best for the pets I care for. Because of that, I get the benefit of expert insight along with real-world, hands-on experience. My approach is simple: I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own. I’ll talk to them, I’ll be patient with them, I’ll respect their boundaries, and I’ll make sure they feel loved and listened to. Whether it’s a gentle walk, a playful outing, or some quiet company at home, I’ll show up for them every single time. I work part time and go to school part time so I have mornings & afternoons free Monday-Thursday and after that I do attend school from 5pm-10pm those days. I work 4-10pm on Fridays -Sundays and I am available before and after those hours. I can follow any instructions needed to optimize care for your fur family. I will make sure all doors and cabinets to places they shouldn’t be in are secured and they are always safe.

About: Tons of dog-sitting experience! I'm the go-to dog-sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. (Walking, feeding, meds, treats, etc.) Your furry little friends never cease to bring a smile to my face and I'll do my best to keep them happy too. :) I'm a part-time student right now, so I have plenty of free time to give my undivided attention to pet-sitting. I love getting outside and taking long walks too so dog-walking fits right into my schedule. :) When dog-sitting in your home, I'll ask plenty of questions to get to know what's standard and appropriate for the routine around the house, where I can find necessities for your pet, etc. Whenever I'm over, caring for the pet, I'll ensure the environment is still safe and the pet has access to anything he/she may need. I'll also make sure I have an emergency number on hand, and will be looking out for signs/symptoms of a doggo who isn't feeling well.

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.

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!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - 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.
