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.

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and caring pet sitter with 8 years of experience providing dependable, loving care for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior dogs who need a little extra patience, comfort, and attention. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I make it a priority to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away.

When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I follow each pet’s feeding, walking, playtime, medication, and bedtime schedule as closely as possible so they feel safe and at ease in their familiar environment. I give plenty of attention, affection, and playtime while also respecting each pet’s individual personality and needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies and kittens who need extra supervision, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, additional patience, or special care. I also treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I keep things clean and tidy, make sure pets have fresh food and water, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident that your pets are in good hands while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Santa Clarita
Hire Cordelia. Full stop, you found the one. Communicative ✅ Goes above and beyond ✅ Great with multi-pets✅ My pets were running out of food and it was delivered mere hours after I left for the airport. She not only refilled their containers, but set the box up for my cat to play in. Scooped and refilled the litter box and gave real solid play time to both. A real gem in NoHo/Burbank. I will be hiring Cordelia again, 1,000%
We had a wonderful experience with Allisa! This was our first time having her care for our dogs, and we were absolutely delighted with the experience. It was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and took wonderful care of ours. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and thoughtful, detailed reports, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We could truly see how much attention and care she gave our dogs. We’re so happy we found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and trustworthy dog sitter!
Accommodated a last minute request for help with kindness and professionalism. She was flexible in working with our tight schedules and met every request with exceptional care. I really appreciated her detailed check in reports with numerous pictures of our cat. It helped relieve my anxiety about our cat staying hidden and isolated rather than interacting. Will definitely ask for her again in the future, and highly recommend to others!
Gabriela is so great! She's conscientious, reliable, and totally trustworthy. She visited my cat every day when I was out of town for a week. Gabriela fed her, cleaned up, and sent me photos and text updates -- even alerted me that a smoke alarm needed a new battery. I felt safe going out of town. Gabriela had everything handled! I will book her again, for sure. I highly recommend her, no question.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Santa Clarita is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $50 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 14,011 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Santa Clarita. 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 .
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.

- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% can help with daily exercise

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 .
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.
