About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up around dog sitting gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. As an online college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Growing up helping with my family’s dog sitting business has given me years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Whether your pet needs company during the day, overnight care, walks, feeding, or playtime, I can work with your schedule to make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I strive to be reliable, communicative, and accommodating to each family's unique needs. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. Growing up in a family that has been involved in dog sitting gave me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I'll treat your pet like they're my own, follow all care instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they're happy, safe, and loved.
About: Hi! I’m Abbey, an active-duty Marine officer and lifelong animal lover living in San Diego County. I currently care for three cats of my own and understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, a calm companion, medication administration, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I’d want for my own pets. You can expect regular updates, plenty of photos, and peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. As an active-duty professional, my schedule can vary from week to week, but I keep my Rover calendar updated and communicate promptly about availability. I offer pet care during my off-duty hours, weekends, and approved leave periods. I am often available for early morning and evening visits during the week, with additional flexibility on weekends. When I commit to caring for your pet, you can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and fully present. I currently share my home with three cats and understand the importance of creating a calm, safe environment. I carefully follow each pet’s routine and take introductions and safety precautions seriously. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide attentive supervision, respect your instructions, and send regular updates so you’ll always know how your pet is doing.
“Lexy was awesome! Even though we only expected her to take our dogs for a potty break in the backyard, she took them on a walk. She took such cute pictures and gave a thorough update. 10/10 would recommend :)”
“Callon has an amazing connection with rabbits! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic! He truly cares for them and did a great job communicating and sending pictures to me while I was away. He went above and beyond to care for our bunnies, bought them extra fresh food and helped get supply’s for our new babies. My bunnies had a great time with Callon and I will 100% hire him anytime I need help with my rabbits.🐰🐰🐰”
“Amanda is a natural with animals. She connected right away with our German Shepherd, and was meticulous with her care. She followed a consistent care schedule and gave us wonderful details in her care reports. We can't wait to schedule her again!”
“Allison has been amazing with my boy Andre during her daily visits! I have been using her services for a few weeks now and she has showed to be very reliable and affordable. I'm not sure what I would do without her help, as I work long hours away from home. Having her come midday and spend time with Andre has made me feel so much better about leaving my boy. Highly recommend Allison!”
“Yajahyra is a wonderful sitter! I have scheduled many drop-in visits with her for my dog Star over the last few months. I am picky with details and she’s always communicative, positive and accommodating. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and truly understand the joy, comfort, and companionship they bring. I currently have a two-year-old Bichon mix and a 14-year-old Yorkipoo, so I’m very familiar with caring for both energetic young dogs and senior pets with special needs. Now that I’m semi-retired, I’ve chosen to spend my time doing something that genuinely fulfills me—caring for animals. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and understanding their individual needs, routines, and quirks. I have a naturally caring and attentive nature, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know they’re not just pets—they’re family—and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in my hands. I am currently semi-retired and my schedule is pretty open. I’m available for immediate drop-in’s or pet walking. I usually just need a 1-2 hour window I will come to your home with a loving heart, ready to care for your sweet pet(s). My goal is to make each animal feel safe, secure, and truly cared for while you’re away. When walking your dogs, I make sure their leashes and harnesses are properly fitted for both comfort and safety. I also value any personal information you can share about your pet—the more I know, the more attentive and responsive I can be to their unique needs, routines, and personality.
About: I’ve been watching dogs for several years and genuinely love spending time with animals.

I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic or prefers a calm presence, I’ll provide dependable care and a lot of attention! My schedule is flexible and I am open to last minute services. I work from 5am-2pm so I am available my days off (which change) anytime and my work days I am available after 2pm. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I value communication and will keep you updated with photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for! Your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority.

“This is our first Rover experience and loved working with Anna! She got us in the day before we needed her so our family could go out and celebrate Father’s Day. Will be happy to work with Anna again!”
About: Hi! I'm so excited to get to know your pet. I work from home full time and have a fully fenced-in backyard. I have experience with senior dogs (including my own 16 year old puggle!), administering meds, and puppies I work fully remote Monday - Friday, so I'm able to spend plenty of time with your pet based on your needs. Whether your pup loves long adventurous walks or snacks snuggles at home, I'm ready for it. I have a fenced in back yard and a walking trail right outside my house. My senior puggle gets along with any dog, cat, and human she's ever met!
“Kylie had visited Mocha three times now and she's always been awesome and super communicative! She took very good care of Mocha while we are away at work, drained Mocha's excessive energy out and kept Mocha a happy and tired dog. Would recommend her to take care of your fur baby while you are away. :)”
About: Hi! I’m Anna, I’ve been a total dog lover my entire life! For years, I’ve been the go-to person for family, friends, and neighbors whenever they need someone to watch their pups. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs, big and small, and I absolutely love getting to know their different personalities. I know your pup is a true member of your family, and I promise to treat them like part of mine—with tons of affection, playtime, and love! I work part-time from home for just two hours every morning, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate the rest of my day to taking care of your pets. Because I am home for the vast majority of the day, I can provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of playtime to ensure your pup feels right at home. Safety and happiness are my top priorities. We have a big, secure yard where dogs can run, play, and burn off energy in a safe environment. I believe in treating every guest like a member of the family, providing a comfortable indoor space for relaxation and constant supervision. In the event of an emergency, the closest 24/7 animal hospital is VEG (Veterinary Emergency Group) located at 2224 South El Camino Real. I am also BLS certified, ensuring I can stay calm and helpful in the event of any unexpected situation.
About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life. I grew up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, even that weird teenage phase where I decided to adopt a rat. I am patient and can read your pet’s cues. Last minute bookings are ok! I work from home full-time and make my own schedule. I am pretty much always available unless already booked. I work as a writer and make extra income doing what I love - taking care of animals. I am extremely mindful and tidy. Whether it’s a drop-in or overnight stay, you can trust me to keep your home clean, and your pet happy.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - San Luis Rey
Mary is a wonderful choice for a pet sitter. She took great care of my senior cat. My cat is usually pretty shy, but she instantly warmed up to Mary, and I received several lovely photos of my cat playing and getting some loving attention. I look forward to rebooking with Mary, and I would recommend her to anyone!
Absolutely fantastic drop in sitter for my cat. 100% recommend & she will remain my #1 choice when I go out of town. Her professionalism was my first impression. When she came to my apartment to get the key and meet my cat, she brought a notebook to keep track of all the info she needed to remember. My cat also decided it would be "funny" to play a game of hide & seek in my house while I was away. Victoria genuinely cared enough to check everywhere (including with neighbors) & even changed her schedule to find her just in case my cat had become lost outdoors. She notified me quickly about the situation and was fully transparent about what had happened. (Thankfully, my girl eventually came out of hiding when her name was called!) There are not enough genuine and trustworthy people in the world whom you could trust with your beloved pet but Victoria certainly is one of them!
Callon has an amazing connection with rabbits! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic! He truly cares for them and did a great job communicating and sending pictures to me while I was away. He went above and beyond to care for our bunnies, bought them extra fresh food and helped get supply’s for our new babies. My bunnies had a great time with Callon and I will 100% hire him anytime I need help with my rabbits.🐰🐰🐰

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in San Luis Rey on Rover is $26.64 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 3,219 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across San Luis Rey. 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 Luis Rey. On Rover:
- 94% 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.
