“Zsana is amazing and we are so grateful to have found her! She was wonderfully flexible and accommodating, working around our changing travel schedule.

Can’t thank her enough and will absolutely be booking again!””

She is my go-to, and I’m looking forward to rebooking with her in the new year!”
About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have over 31 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I've raised puppies, cared for adult and senior dogs, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive, and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your beloved companion. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or extra care, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a very flexible schedule and can provide care throughout the day and evening. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship, and I'm also available for overnight house sitting in your home. I'll make sure your pets receive dependable, loving care and plenty of attention while you're away, keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I do my best to keep their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I'll follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully, give them plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship, and make sure they have fresh water and a clean environment. I also respect my clients' homes, keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it.
“Claudia is great. My Maine Coon has warmed up to her more quickly than he has with anyone else, myself included. 😌 She has good intuition when it comes to animals, and I’m grateful to her for her help.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets around my whole life. Dogs and cats specifically but fish and reptiles too! I even have a gecko of my own. With my years of experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I can provide safe, loving, and dependable care for your pets too! I have a very free schedule at the moment due to taking time off of school. I am available weekdays and weekends, mostly afternoon and night. Some morning availability. I make sure to focus on patience when working with new pets to ensure they are comfortable with me in their environment. I treat each home with respect and communicate clearly with owners so they feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Victoria was such a pleasure! We communicated. It was really a last-minute drop in request for our three Dalmatians. We did a meet and greet and the three dogs immediately took a liking to Victoria, and they are very picky and a lot to handle!! Victoria showed up on time fed our three dogs took them potty and spent some time and sent pictures after! She did an amazing job is a great person and we would definitely book her again and highly recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - San Luis Rey
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!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in San Luis Rey on Rover is $26.56 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,297 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.

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.
