About: I’m a dependable and attentive pet caregiver with experience caring for dogs and cats of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I’ve handled daily walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, playtime, and overnight care while making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m especially good at adapting to each pet’s personality — whether that means keeping up with high-energy dogs or being patient with anxious or senior pets. My goal is always to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring and responsible hands. I’m currently a student and have a very flexible schedule and will be happy to accommodate you. Please feel free to reach out to me. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment with lots of supervision, exercise, and interaction throughout the day. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and energy level to make sure they feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.

Tami is a wonderful sitter! Our pup Shadow is skittish with new people, but she’s patient, calm, and comfortable with him. Communication is easy and frequent - we really appreciate her and will absolutely keep using her services.

About: Hi I'm Nita! Over the last 23 years I've had the pleasure of caring for the pets of loved ones, neighbors, and even my own. I'm experienced in short and long term sitting, walking services, medication management and injections, and of course playtime. Your pet's wellbeing is my priority and you can leave them in capable hands and enjoy peace of mind knowing they're receiving the love, attention, and expert care they deserve. Contact me today and ask any questions regarding availability or care for your furry friend.🐾 I'm currently a freelance worker and work mostly remote meaning that I can be available to pet sit or walk with the flexibility that you're seeking. I am extremely respectfully of others' property and dwellings. I want to create a comfortable environment for your fur babies, which is why I prefer to do onsite pet sitting at the clients' homes.

About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. They had cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time. My responsibilities included walking, playing, feeding and even reading to them (which I have on good authority was very adorable). I'm very excited to take care of your fur babies for you now! *Ask me about Active & Running services* **Ask me about Pet Portraiture Add-ons** I am currently taking online classes and looking forward to being with animals when I can part time. I am looking forward to meeting new pets and taking care of them in between bouts of homework and studying. I am available for most services! Including drop-in check-ins, letting dogs out to do their business or go on walks or play with your pets. I'm also available to pet-sit and keep them company while they relax in their space. After meeting your pets and learning their specific and unique needs, likes or dislikes, I am available to feed, walk, play most days.

About: I've had two dogs and a cat in my lifetime. I also have 2 years of pet sitting experience for some of my family friends! I have trained my two dogs and can spend hours playing with animals! I am currently unemployed, and searching for work, so my schedule is flexible, and I am looking for ways to make some extra money! I thought this would be an excellent way. I have an apartment, but it's well kept and has plenty of space for animals to play around. There is also a grassy area outside for dogs to play. As for a clients home, I will always make sure to keep it clean and avoid touching anything that isn't meant for me or your beloved pet.

About: I've worked with special needs animals all my life from tri-pawds, deaf, and blind animals to those with dietary restrictions, behavioral issues, anxiety, and sensitivity to stimuli. Currently I am also employed by a farm that has working breads for dogs and barn cats. I work with a changing and flexible schedule and three days off per week, leaving me plenty of time for checking in on your furry friend. My animals have special dietary needs along with special care for allergies and sensitive skin. They receive joint supplements, specially vetted foods, special bathing requirements, and seasonal medications. I'm well versed at the care special needs animals require because of this.

About: I truly love animals, and animals naturally love me back. I live in a spacious home with a large, secure backyard — everything is fully fenced with a tall gate, so your pup will always be safe. I work from home and stay here all day, which means pets are never left alone and always get plenty of attention. Our neighborhood is very quiet, with cul-de-sac streets and no through traffic, making walks calm and stress-free. Just ten steps from my home there is a big, safe park where many friendly dogs love to play. Pets in my care enjoy plenty of space indoors and outdoors, peaceful surroundings, and most importantly — lots of love, comfort, and attention every single day. I work from home full-time, so I am always around to give your pets attention, care, and love throughout the entire day. This makes it easy for me to keep a consistent routine with feeding, walks, and playtime. Your pup will never be left alone and will always feel safe and cared for. I live in a spacious home with a fully fenced backyard and a tall gate to keep pets safe at all times. Our neighborhood is quiet, with cul-de-sac streets and no through traffic, which makes it perfect for calm walks. Just steps away there is a large safe park where many friendly dogs play. Pets enjoy both indoor comfort and outdoor freedom, always in a safe and loving environment.

Gabriela was wonderful! We had never used Rover before and we were a little nervous about it, but then we did a meet and greet with Gabriela and we’re instantly comfortable and knew she would be great for our dog and cat. She was so friendly and professional, punctual for every visit, very kind and attentive to the animals and followed oyr instructions perfectly. We would happily recommend her to anyone and look forward to having her pet sit for us again soon!

About: I have owned animals my entire life including dogs, cats, horses, snakes, tortoises, and turtles. I have helped take care of even more including a bunny, a goat, a pig, chickens, a leopard gecko, and a bearded dragon. I have experience with dogs ages 0-12+, and cats ages 0-16. I also have experience giving dogs medication including insulin shots. I have additional time between caring for my own animals, and animals that I am taking care of for family/friends to help out whoever needs it on days that I don’t also have work! I always treat every animal I come in contact with like they are my own, and I do everything I can to make sure that every animal is taken care of to the best of my ability. Even if I am just doing a drop in or a walk, I will use any amount of time I have to build trust with your pets.

About: I've grown up with many MANY dogs and cats, and am as used to caring for them as I am brushing my teeth. Very secure in loving and handling smaller dogs, as having grown up with three boston terriers. However, I have been a dog walker for small, medium, and large puppers. I take about 3 walks a day outside on my own, and could walk with a dog for hours if needed. Not afraid to clean any animal excrements and get my hands dirty ;) I am almost always free! I cannot do night walks (past 6PM), but am still available for house/pet sitting. My weekends are also almost always free. Starting the end of August this might change, but for now I am basically all yours! As someone who used to have a very anxious dog, I am experienced in creating a stress free environment. For example, I can easily notice when a dog becomes stressed, such as hackles and drooling. I am conscious of the importance of leashing, the importance of constant awareness during walks, and the importance of continued affection. Ready to clean up after any animal, feed any pet on a specific schedule, and also clean a home free of fur. Bonus: I love to give dogs a good bath; Cats too if they let me :)

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Santa Clarita

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Santa Clarita on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 14,181 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Santa Clarita. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Santa Clarita stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Santa Clarita. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
