“Lexy was so helpful watching our kitty while we were out of town! Our shy kitty warmed up to her quickly, and Lexy followed all of our instructions to a T. We would highly recommend her and will definitely be recurring customers in the future!”
“Easy to schedule, reliable and my shy cat even came out to say hello after a few visits! Highly recommend and will rebook myself next time we need someone to check in on our cat :)”
“Thank you Miss Tiffany for all the care, love, attention and daily updates on BB. You are a kind person. We are so happy plus lucky to have found you on Rover! See you again sometime in the future. Bruce and Linda (Oceanside)”
“First time for us using rover but needed someone to take check in on our dog during our short 4 day trip. We were nervous about having a stranger come over to feed our indoor dog. Makenna made this service very easy. She was very responsive and made us feel comfortable every step of the way. She even brought in some Amazon packages for us and went out of her way to shut off a water hose we left running (by accident). We were very thankful to have found both rover and Makenna. Would for sure hire her again (and already planning on it next month). Highly recommend”
“Zsana is awesome! She was easy to communicate with, and she took such good care of my old pup on a last minute trip. I plan to book with her regularly and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Savannah is always great with our two cats! They aren’t the easiest cats to watch, and she does a great job. She is our go to sitter any time we are going out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Eric was absolutely amazing not only was he great at communicating, sending photos, and overall greatness he also was available last min and I truly appreciated it! Thank you Eric will definitely use again!”
About: I grew up around animals and have always been comfortable caring for both dogs and cats! In college, I ran a pet-sitting business, gaining hands-on experience with walks, feeding routines, playtime, litter care, and making sure pets felt safe and comfortable while their owners were away. I am calm and attentive and have the ability to adapt to different pet personalities and needs, whether energetic puppies or more relaxed, routine-oriented pets. I focus on building trust with animals so they feel secure and cared for, not just watched. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! As a full-time teacher, I have a structured daily routine during the school year, which allows me to plan pet care responsibilities around mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m consistent and organized with my time, so I’m able to reliably provide care before and after work, as well as give pets focused attention during my free time. During the summer when I’m off, I have even more flexibility and availability for longer stays or more frequent care. Overall, I’m used to balancing responsibility and routines, which translates well into providing dependable and attentive pet care. I care for pets by keeping their routines as consistent and comfortable as possible in their own home or mine. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and any special needs, and I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. I’m very mindful of each animal’s personality—some need extra activity and stimulation, while others prefer a calm, quiet environment. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for so their owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I provide personalized care for each dog, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and pets needing extra attention or special routines. As a full-time college student and part-time worker, I carefully schedule pet care around my classes and shifts, ensuring reliable, attentive care for your dog. I create a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets feel comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize trust, routines, and loving care.
About: As long as I can remember I have always loved animals. As I’ve aged I’ve come to like bugs and reptiles too! Over the past year friends and family have requested I watch over their furry family and I’ve happily obliged. I have some experience with reactive dogs (ability to read their body language, having a calm energy and meeting them where they are). My experience has covered, a newer kitten with a special diet, a multi-cat home + dog and a senior cat with special medication requirements. I also am a pet parent to a small dog whom I adore. Since I work part-time, my schedule is pretty flexible, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. Currently, I only house-sit on days I do not work out of home, so my priority is you furry family. I’m pretty flexible depending on each individual pets needs. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, my priority is making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and as relaxed as possible while you’re away. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s usual routine and will follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special requests exactly as provided.
“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. :)”
“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.🐰🐰🐰”
“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!”
“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!”

Jenna was absolutely wonderful! This was my second time booking her, and she took such great care of my three cats for three weeks while I was away. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She sent me lots of pictures and updates every day, which I loved, and it was obvious from the photos that my kitties were happy, comfortable, and really enjoyed their time with her. She was attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring—even giving them brushies, Churus, and some outdoor patio time. 🥰 It meant so much to me to be able to enjoy my trip without worrying about them. I’m so grateful to Jenna and will absolutely continue booking her whenever I need a sitter. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur babies! ❤️🐾
Tiffany was so amazing, she was super communicative and treated our fur babies so well. It was our first time using Rover so we didn’t know how the experience would go, but Tiffany was amazing and we will definitely schedule drop ins as needed in the future with her for fur babies. Thank you so much for being so communicative and thorough! :)
Megan is absolutely wonderful. We know our kitty, Scoops, is always in good hands and well taken care of when we go out of town. It makes traveling so much easier knowing we have someone like Megan checking on him. Thank you for the wonderful care and peace of mind you provide. We appreciate you!!
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!

As of September 2026, there are 3,328 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.

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.
