Devenee was so wonderful and she was able to win my cat over very quickly despite my cat being super shy to new people. The photos she sent of my cat are some of my favorites of her now. I'll be rebooking with her for future travels as long as she is available to watch my cat.

About: Hi, my name is Candace and I have been a member of Rover.com starting March 21, 2012 from Dog Hosting to my current position as Dog Walker. As a recent college graduate with experience as a home care aide, I am eager to use my skills to provide dedicated pet care, ensuring your furry companion receives the attention and care they deserve while you maintain a balanced lifestyle, and I am available on weekends and holidays to integrate into your daily or weekly routine. My belief is dogs are family and I will treat your dog similarly to how I treat my own dog who is the apple of my eye.

About: i have great experience working with dogs because of my work volunteering at the humane society for several years, and will develop a great connection with pets as if they are my own! I am a freshman playing so my schedule may be unpredictable at times but most weekends are open and afternoons work better than mornings for me. I work to develop a great connection with the pet, while giving them my full attention and making sure they are staying safe healthy, and happy.

About: As a certified energy healer of people and pets (especially dogs and cats), I deeply connect with them and feel and understand their love and empathy. I truly believe that they are angels and therapists and I love to spend time with them. I look forward to receiving your trust to love and care for them. I have a flexible schedule and can work around the time that I am caring for my family and pets etc. during my available hours. It depends on which service is requested while always strictly adhering to Rover policies as well as the client’s needs. Will send regular updates and photos.

About: With me your pet will be a family member, one of us. He or she will go to places with us instead of staying home alone. I got my first dog at the tender age of eight. Been a pet lover all my life. I have provided pet sitting services since 2016, been taking care of both dogs and cats. Everybody in my small family loves pets and cares for animals. We live in a house in Newport Beach, in the middle of parks and greenery where there is plenty of space for walks and runs. In our home pets are allowed on the furniture and in the bed. Please have your pet potty trained. Looking forward to taking care of your pet. Thank you.

This was our first experience using Rover. We have a new puppy and I was nervous, however Ashley was amazing, on time to each drop in visit, great communication and updates. My request for help was very last minute and Ashley was quick to respond and help us out. I know we'll be using rover a lot more and this first experience gave me great confidence. Thank you Ashely!

About: I can monitor pills needed since I took care of my dog when he was sick and I can feed, walk, bathe and tend to any zoomies. I’m currently a part time student and working part time. I can make time since my schedule isn’t full. I prefer early mornings or late afternoons I have a fenced dog and a senior dog who is very mellow and well trained. Unfortunately I don’t offer boarding just something I wanted to put out there.

About: After losing my beloved fur baby of 13.5 years, Jax, to a massive tumor, I decided to leave Corporate America and embark on a soul-searching journey through South America. Along the way, I connected with so many wonderful dogs who filled my heart with love and comfort. Now that I’m back home, I’m focusing on writing a book about my journey and enjoying the flexibility in my schedule. Though I’m not ready for another dog of my own just yet, I would love to be an "auntie" to yours. Friends always joked that I treated Jax better than most people treat their children—we were inseparable! We’d go on outdoor adventures, especially to the beach, which was our happy place. During the last year of his life, I cooked him healthy meals and found natural supplements to help him through his battle. I’d love to care for your pup while you’re off on your own adventures, either in your home or mine. I have a passion for yoga, self-care, travel, live music, good food, and sunsets—so your fur baby will be in good company on our little adventures. I'm super flexible with my schedule, so your pup can join me on walks in the Back Bay or the Beach—two of my favorite spots! If they prefer some quiet time, they can hang out with me while I’m writing my book, or we can just snuggle on the couch and relax together. Whether it’s outdoor adventures or cozy downtime, I’m happy to give your fur baby the care and love they need. To ensure your pup’s comfort and safety, it’s important to know about their temperament and preferences. Understanding what they enjoy, their routine, and any specific needs they might have helps me provide the best care possible. While I may prefer to host them at my place, I’m open to staying at your home if it feels right for everyone. A meet-and-greet beforehand is ideal to ensure there’s compatibility and comfort for all parties involved before committing to a stay.

About: Will keep in communication with owners - sending photos and updates! I'm a remote worker and can provide attentive at home love and care. I enjoy an active lifestyle and will exercise with your animal to whatever extent they need. I've dealt with energetic dogs and cats who needed long walks and play as well as older animals who enjoy a calmer attention. In my 15 years of pet care, I have provided animals with oral as well as topical medication. As someone who's always been an animal lover, I look forward to getting to know your animal. Providing your pet a staycation while you're away! I currently work remotely so will have plenty of time to provide love and attention to your pet! I usually go on a long walk or run in the morning and can go on a few more throughout the day if needed. I make sure to be aware of the animal's behaviors beforehand in order to properly supervise them. I ensure they feel as little loss as possible when their family is away by knowing their routines, favorite things to do, and more!

About: Hello! I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid and got my first pet. We have had three cats and two dogs that I have grown up with and helped to take care of. Both of my dogs were rescues and I have fostered dogs from the Humane Society so I am familiar with the extra TLC that may need to be given to rescue pups due to some having difficult backgrounds before being rescued. I helped my family train both dogs when they were little. I love all kinds of dogs big and small. I also am very familiar with cats and have had a ton of experience with them as well having helped my family raise 3 cats. I am unable to adopt any animals where I am currently living so I would love the opportunity to treat your animal like it was my own and love on them because I miss having that in my life! My schedule is very flexible and is mostly work from home. There are a few days that I need to report to the job site. I can make sure your pet gets to stick to its normal routine in your home and will ensure that they are well taken care of!

Very good first meeting. Jordy loved Tina. She's very good with big dogs and ours has separation anxiety. He had no trouble going out with her alone and I could tell he was very comfortable with her.

Miranda was great with taking care of our 6 year old cat. She was very communicative and sent us lots of photos of our baby during her visits. 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. Thank you! 😻

Nancy was simply wonderful. I am so glad to have found her because she took such good care of my cats and made me feel very comfortable about leaving my cats for a couple of weeks. She was extremely professional, communicative, and I could tell she was great with pets because my very shy cats came out to greet her… so unlike them and a great sign. I would not hesitate to book her again. Thanks Nancy!!!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Santa Ana Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Santa Ana Heights on Rover is $23.43 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 4,238 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 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 Santa Ana Heights. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
