“Tiffany was incredible!!! I felt so comfortable leaving my babies with her for the night. So so grateful knowing that all 3 of my dogs were taken care of!! Thank you so much Tiffany”
“Richard is just great! He took wonderful care of Infinity. His pictures of the two of them show how much Infinity enjoyed spending time with him. She almost seemed to be smiling in the pictures. I highly recommend Richard to anyone looking for dog care.”
About: I started cleaning kennels at my local animal shelter. I started to spend more time with the animals. I would come in everyday to walk the dogs. I dog sit for my family friend and my track coach’s. I also foster cats. I love being around animals and treat them like my own. I am graduating this summer with my vet assistant degree. I currently work at companion animal clinic and I work 8-5:15 most days but am free most weekends. I am also free most evenings after work. I am able to come to your house and do whatever your pets are comfortable with. I like to keep the pets in and environment they are used to.
“Rachel was fantastic with Emma! She took such amazing care of her while we were away and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. She was incredibly accommodating, helpful, and kept us updated on Emma every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“First time using the Rover App. We were worried how Mochi would do, but Sophia sent us pictures of him every time she went to visit him and he looked like a happy boy. She also gave us updates and kept in constant communication while we were gone. Sophia made us feel like Mochi was in very good hands so we will definitely be repeat customers. If you need someone to care for your fur family member, I highly recommend Sophia.”
About: I’m patient, attentive and committed to making your pet feel comfortable while you’re away. I have 2 years of experience taking care of a Rottweiler ( Bear ). With love and care I made sure that he was the happiest dog alive. I also have grown up with my childhood dog; Hazel! And I can say that she is the bestest dog. I have an open schedule.

“First time using Rover & Megan was wonderful and made me feel so comfortable that my Lu was in great hands while I was away. I will definitely rebook her for any future needs!”
About: Residents in my home are myself and my 15 year-old son and my 20-year old son. They are both attentive and gentle with our dog, Luca, and love all furry friends!! As the main caregiver in my home, I am a responsible and reliable individual who has a genuine love and passion for dogs. I have over 10 years of experience working with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am very active and able to provide plenty of exercise and playtime for your dog. I understand the importance of consistency and routine for dogs, and I will make sure to follow any specific instructions you have for their care. I am punctual and will always arrive on time for scheduled walks or visits. I will also keep you updated with your dog's activities and behavior and make sure to address any concerns you may have. I am dedicated to providing the best care for your furry friend. I currently work from home and intentionally build in time each day to take my loveable Irishdoodle for his mid-day walks, as well as ensure he has his feeding and potty breaks on time! I am a homebody and most nights I am home, given small amounts of time to run errands or take my son to practice. Luca (my Irishdoodle), and I take daily walks together and have weekly visits to the dog park so he can run and play with others. Luca is allowed on furniture and beds, and so are his friends. He gets lots of play and belly rubs, and any furry visitor will be showered with the same love and attention!

Rachel was fantastic with Emma! She took such amazing care of her while we were away and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. She was incredibly accommodating, helpful, and kept us updated on Emma every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!
Olivia was wonderful! I could tell right away that she took great care of my boys and kept everything so clean. I know my cats can make quite a mess around their food and litter every day, so coming home to those areas spotless was such a nice surprise! She was very punctual, and I loved receiving their little daily report cards and photos. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. I will definitely hire Olivia again!
Jessica was amazing! She took such great care of Berries and sent us lots of updates and pictures. You can definitely tell how much she loves dogs—my puppy loved her from day one! I was very anxious about leaving my puppy with someone else, but after meeting Jessica, I felt so relieved and knew Berries was in good hands. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Berries! :)
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! ❤️🐾
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

FAQs for Pet Sitting - San Luis Rey
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in San Luis Rey is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $35 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 7,422 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across San Luis Rey. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in San Luis Rey. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
