“Such a great cat sitter! She took tons of picture, gave many updates and handle my kitten well. He still has crazy kitten energy and she was such a good sport about it. Very responsible/communicative and you can tell she loves animals. This was my first time leaving my kitten for more than a few hours and she made me feel so comfortable! Would recommend her 1000% to take wonderful care of your beloved animals.”

About: I love all animals sooo much, but especially cats. ❤️ I have a calming demeanor that animals are attracted to. Especially when I call there name or names they come right to me I currently am working with horses during the week and would like to add a little pet sitting to my weekends. I enjoy walking dogs or playing with cats. The most important thing is following the owner’s instructions. I understated all pets are different and have different needs. I am reliable and trustworthy.

“Garrett was amazing. He was patient with my puppy and even was able to put her harness on, of which I couldn’t do without a fuss. Now she sits and lets me put it on no problem. I will definitely hire him again and again. Highly recommended him to anyone.”

About: I absolutely love animals. I have always been good with dogs especially. I have always had a family dog growing up and my roommate currently has one that I take care of when she needs me to. I am a very good with schedules so your animal will be good hands. My availability does vary because I have a full time job but I am more than able to do morning and night visits and all day visits on the weekends. I am very outgoing and trustworthy. Your animals will be snuggled and loved while you are away. I am also to do over night watching, but will have to leave for work in the morning and return after work. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing pets! I currently work 6:30-3 pm Monday - Friday. I am happy to help with short and longer term care. I am available for overnights if needed. This is not applicable as I do not currently have pets of my own. I unfortunately live in a rental where pets are not allowed on the premises.

She played with her and gave us updates on how much she was eating. Our girl is shy and she warmed up to Miranda very quickly. We felt at ease knowing she was in great care while we were away.

“We’re so grateful to Irina for taking such wonderful care of our two cats while we were away! From the start, she was kind, communicative, and clearly experienced with animals. She made sure our cats were well-fed, comfortable, and got the attention they needed. One of the things we appreciated most was that she sent us pictures and a little report after each visit — it gave us real peace of mind and always brought a smile to our faces. We came home to two happy, relaxed kitties — and a tidy home too! We highly recommend Irina to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter.”

“I am so grateful for Bennie & Jennie! While I was out of town for 2 weeks, they provided me with such detailed updates on a daily basis. It gave me such a peace of mind to receive a thorough recap of how each cat did, along with photos & videos. They are very communicative and respond very quickly. The set-up they created in their house is wonderful. It is cat-friendly, full of toys & cat furniture, and safe. When I went to go pick my cats up, it was obvious that they had the time of their lives! They were so healthy and full of energy. Thank you so much for all that you do!!!”

About: Hello! My name is Reimi. Thank you for visiting my profile! I am an absolute animal lover with over 13 years of pet care experience! In Japan, I raised 3 female cats (a Scottish Fold, an American Shorthair, and a domestic mix), and I currently live with 2 sweet tabby boys in the US. I also have experience raising hamsters, so I am very attentive to small details when caring for pets. While I don’t currently own a dog, I have plenty of hands-on experience helping friends and family with their dogs—including walking, feeding, playing, and going on outings together. I love all kinds of animals and breeds, and I’m very comfortable with different personalities, whether they are shy or energetic! I provide attentive, stress-free care in the comfort of your pet’s home. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, brush grooming, and fun playtime. Please note that I do not offer bathing or nail trimming services to keep visits calm and comfortable. As a pet owner myself, I know how important peace of mind is while you’re away. I will always send quick updates and photo reports after every visit. I look forward to meeting your furry family members! My schedule is flexible, with just a few routine activities: • Mon / Tue / Thu: Part-time work (3-4 hours during the day) • Tue / Thu: Dance classes (around 3 hours) • Saturdays: Errand/shopping time and evening shift Since these are all short absences, I have plenty of time to care for your pets! Once you submit a request, we can discuss the exact timing and details that best fit your pet's routine. I ensure a safe, comfortable, and reliable environment for your pets: • Service Focus: Specializing in House Sitting (1–2 nights at your home), Drop-in Visits, and Dog Walking (No boarding at my home). • Safety First: Strict adherence to your home rules, routines, and secure locking of all doors and gates. • Pet Experience: Over 13 years of caring for pets with a gentle, attentive, and patient approach. • Constant Communication: Frequent photo/video updates and quick messages for your complete peace of mind.

“Megan did a house-sit for 10 days for us. She's very professional with check in's every day and updates on our kitty and the house. When we got back, we couldn't even tell that she was here. Our kitty was happy to see us and she did not display an anxious behavior which tells me that she was super content with Megan. I am really happy that Megan was available for this sit because she put me at ease with being away for so long and so far away. I could just relax knowing everything at the house and our fur child was being taken care of. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who's looking for a dependable and trustworthy person to care for their pet (and house).”

About: My career started at my church when my pastor had to go out of town and needed someone trust-worthy! I love all animals and treat them as they were mine. I give a lot more time then most and charge much less. I have 12 years of experience, with excellent references. I m available for a walk while you work, 3 walks a day or overnight; at your home. My service is much better then boarding and your fur baby feels much safer! I devote about 75% of my life to pet care. The other 25% is devoted to church and volunteer activities. I love my job and am fulfilled by caring for pets. I DO NOT normally host pets in my home. I have a cat, 4 turtles and a beta fish. If the pet is small and can be crated I would consider that. I can drive small pets to vet or other activities

Mabel did an amazing job watching our cat while we were away on an international trip. She was super responsive, provided frequent updates, and left us feeling reassured that our cat was in the best possible hands. At one point we had a mishap with our auto feeder and Mabel helped us get things sorted seamlessly. Our cat loved her and yours will too!

Isabella was fantastic! She stopped by twice to check in and play with our cat, and you could tell she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after.. not just a quick in-and-out. Our cat was happy and well taken care of the whole time. Isabella had no issues getting into our apartment while we were not there which was so amazing and stress free!! Would absolutely recommend Isabella to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive cat sitter, and we'll definitely be booking her again

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Santa Ana Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Santa Ana Heights is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $42 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 October 2026, there are 4,304 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Santa Ana Heights. 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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Santa Ana Heights. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , 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.
