Janet was great with the pup. She was able to meet up before the scheduled visits for intros and to answer any questions. She was very accommodating and provided plenty of updates while looking after the pups. Would definitely recommend and would be happy for her to look after our dog again!

Lily did a great job taking care of my cats! She handled some unexpected issues that came up and kept me updated the whole time. I was able to take care of what I needed to without worrying about my pets, knowing that someone trustworthy was looking after them.

Our cat couldn't get more attention and care. He's very social and loves attention, amd she gave it! Proof was in the amazing pictures we received. Battlecat is super special and our fur baby, so this means a lot. Its heartbreaking to leave him, but when we do, we know he is treated so well by MacKenna. ❤️

Cailin took great care of Tia when we went to Disneyland. We received plenty of photos and updates during her visit and she was flexible with our schedule. We would definitely use her services Cailin if we come back for another visit to Anaheim.

About: Apart from always caring for my own dogs, I have loved walking my old neighbors pups as well. I am average build but strong for my size so I can handle the tugs from the bigger dogs like husky’s. I have an almost 3 month old who I stay home with so I am available for around the clock care for pups, children, or any elders who need assistance. Me and my baby would love to have your fur baby join our walks and play time! I am a stay at home mom to a very chill and quiet baby. Our days consist of his nap times, sitting on our enclosed balcony, and going on long walks. We live in a condo with a balcony that has no escape route, and a medium size patio/backyard. It does not have grass but we have a 47x32in. artificial grass mat for potty breaks. The condo has stairs as well.

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.

About: I grew up caring for dogs and have two of my own, Ruby and Hazel, who taught me a lot about patience, routine, and understanding different personalities. Because of them, I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks to managing feeding schedules, giving plenty of playtime, and keeping a calm, safe environment. I’m used to working with both puppies and older dogs who may need a little extra support. I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and habits so owners feel confident that their pets are understood and cared for. What sets me apart is the level of communication and care I provide. I always keep owners updated, share photos, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and loved while you are away. Pet care is already part of my daily routine because I care for my two dogs, Ruby and Hazel. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving them lots of attention throughout the day. Adding walks or drop-ins fits naturally into my schedule, and I make sure I have enough time set aside so every dog gets proper care without feeling rushed. On a weekly basis, I plan around the pets I’m responsible for, whether that means regular walks, check-ins, or longer stays. I’m consistent, reliable, and comfortable building a routine that keeps each dog happy and supported. When I’m caring for pets in my home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and safe. I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest so they feel at ease. I keep a clean space, monitor them closely, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection, just like Ruby and Hazel do every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect the owner’s rules and the dog’s normal routine. I make sure feeding times, walk schedules, and any training habits stay consistent. I give regular updates, and make sure the dog feels secure in a familiar environment. My goal in both settings is to keep each pet happy, calm, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

About: I am a deep lover of animals of all kinds, my experience ranging from pigs, lizards, cats, horses, and everything in between!! I have trained my once very food driven and possessive pitbull rescue to wait for the proper commands and be able to regulate her emotions. I truly believe having patience and love towards all creatures always results in growth, and I’m determined to help in any way I can! It fits in at every moment because it is a way of life. Coexisting with our creatures and being able to give them a happy and fulfilling life is a blessing in itself and done any time I can. Before work walks, cuddling and playing through the day, running errands together, giving them treats. I give each animals plenty of attention, kisses and affirmations. I take them on walks, play games (my pitbull loves tug of war), let them sniff and take their time when needed, keep them safe and in environments they can thrive in, maintain regular feeding schedules, clean up and provide proper care at all times.

About: I’ve grown up with many different pets since I was a very little girl, and have found that each of them have taught me new and helpful experiences. I’ve worked with animals from hamsters to horses since I was very young. I’m a college student who is back home for my summer break, and I’m looking to spend my free time with some lovely critters. My schedule is pretty flexible and I can work around anyone’s schedule. In my home, we make sure that my pets are always giving love and affection, that they get plenty of exercise inside and outside, and always have access to freshwater and food. This will also be the same in my employers homes.

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 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 3,092 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:

  • 91% 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.
