About: I taken care of and trained my own dog, a sweet Pembroke Welsh Corgi. She has passed and now I want to continue spending time with pets. I am currently working full time but am available in the evenings and weekends. On the weekends I am available all day to assist with pet care. I can follow any instructions to keep your pet safe in your home. I take precautions and try to read body language if the pet does not feel secure.

Flor was reliable, gave good updates, and was very attentive to our cats. She made suggestions on what else she could do to support our needs. Would highly recommend her and will book her for future services.

About: I was born into a family with Saint Bernards, and over my lifetime have owned seven Saints plus an English Mastiff, a pittie mix, a cat, birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I've been described by friends and family as a dog whisperer, and I can't help but make friends with any dog I see. I've been dogsitting for friends and family on the side for years now, doing overnight visits, extended stays, and drop-ins for potty, walks, and meals. I love cats and dogs of all sizes, but I've always had a soft spot for the giant breeds. I was a cross country runner and still live an active lifestyle, so long walks and runs are no problem. I can also do transportation to vet visits, doggy day care or walks at dog parks, etc. I'm looking forward to taking care of your furry family members! I am widely available for scheduling. I have a few steady clients with regular visits, but I can work with you and figure out the best schedule! As a lifelong animal owner, I understand the needs of many animals, as well as the feelings that owners have towards their furry friends. My initial clients were friends, but through the established trust and word of mouth recommendations, that list has grown. When doing overnight or extended stays, I will always bring in the mail, take out the trash, and perform any other household duties you may need. I've cared for sick dogs, handled emergency situations, and taken care of urine and other medical samples for my clients. Whatever you need, I can accommodate.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, so I have years of experience with animals of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to older pets who need extra patience and love. I currently have two dogs and a cat, and I’ve raised them since they were young, so I understand the attention, training, and care every animal needs. I’m an athlete and love going on walks, so I can keep up with high-energy dogs or take long, leisurely strolls with older pets. I’m also comfortable handling feisty or shy pets, and I always focus on building trust, keeping pets safe, and making sure they feel happy and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just companionship, I treat every animal like family and adapt to their unique personality and needs. I’m willing to go the extra mile (literally and figuratively) to make sure your pets feel cared for, safe, and comfortable. I just finished school and currently work as a waitress for about 4 hours a day, which leaves me with plenty of free time. I’m looking to spend those off-hours doing something I genuinely love caring for pets. My schedule is really flexible, so I’m able to fit in walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day and week. Whether you need regular visits or last-minute help, I’m happy to make it work around my shifts. When I’m caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so their pet feels safe and comfortable. I stick to feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions you leave. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality whether they’re playful, shy, or extra cuddly and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and reassurance while you’re away. I also respect your space by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. When caring for pets in my own home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and explore safely. My dogs are kept in my garage during visits so your dog has full freedom to roam in the yard or, if they are an indoor dog, stay inside the house comfortably. I already have two dogs and a cat, so I’m used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels safe and happy. Walks, playtime, and lots of love are always part of the day. No matter where your pet is, my goal is always the same: to keep them safe, happy, and loved just like they’re part of my own family.

About: From a young age I would house sit for neighbors and would take care of their pets, whilst they were on vacation. I've taken care of older dogs that had special needs as well. I have been walking dogs for the past 5 years as a hobby, and as a way to stay healthy. When my friend's shoulder was dislocated I walked his Grey Wolf/Husky mix for him while he recovered. I am available most days, I have full availability on weekends, and late nights (10-11pm) all week for those dogs whom prefer cooler temperature walks. I am unable to host your dog at my home currently. I'm experienced in giving older dogs their medications including pills and Insulin. I can house sit and watch your pets while you are at work, on vacation, or even if it's just date night.

About: I have taken care of my family and friend’s dogs over the years. I work from home thus hang with my cats. I love taking pets on walks, playing with them, and showing them love. I’ve also lived with cats throughout my life. I currently have a cat that I’ve taught to sit and high five. I would take my late senior dog on walks in the morning, afternoons and evenings. I’m experienced with giving dogs/cats medication such as pills or liquids with syringes, if needed. I currently work from home so I have flexibility to play with your dog and take them out on walks, if house sitting. I can housesit on weekends especially and avalible during the week. I can do prolong stays at your home to take care of your pets or to check in on them. I can take care of your dog and/or cat. I’d be glad to take them to the park or beach to get them to run around and play. Let me know if there is any special things your dogs need.

Valerie was a life saver for me over the weekend when I didn’t have someone to watch my cat. She was prompt and kind and accommodating. I didn’t have to worry about my boy while we were away, and she sent a bunch of photos of him. When I could not make it home on time, she happily agreed to help me out with another house visit. I would definitely call on Valerie again when I travel.

About: I am very active and love being outdoors. I am almost always available given enough notice. I love to be at the park, beach, and going on long walks. Very friendly. Absolutely love dogs and playing fetch with them. I grew up around dogs and cats and other small animals my entire life. I enjoy being around mostly dogs but I love all pets. I am comfortable with grooming, feeding, walking, potty breaks, walks, extra long walks for more energetic dogs, and giving lots of attention! For overnights I do have small children in my home who also have a love for animals. They are very friendly and energetic, very helpful and love to be involved in taking care of dogs and any pets they encounter. I am available to walk dogs morning afternoon and night time. I can typically get drop offs/pick ups from 5 pm to 9 pm. Depending on the day. As soon as I wake up I will take the dogs for a walk then when we get back ill make sure to feed them. I do like going to the park often as well.

About: What sets me apart is my comprehensive approach to animal care, blending patience with practical expertise. I am highly comfortable with both the high-energy needs of puppies—including reinforcement of training routines—and the gentle, attentive monitoring required for senior pets. Whether it is ensuring a complex medication schedule is followed to the letter or simply providing the extra time and comfort that older or younger animals need to feel safe, I offer a reliable, compassionate presence that prioritizes your pet's long-term health and daily happiness. My schedule is highly structured, ensuring that every pet in my care receives consistent attention, timely feedings, and enrichment. I prioritize a routine that mimics their home life as closely as possible, allowing for designated play sessions, scheduled outdoor time, and plenty of rest. By maintaining a reliable cadence, I help reduce anxiety and ensure that every pet feels secure, comfortable, and well-cared for throughout their stay. In my home, I maintain a strictly pet-safe environment that is clean, organized, and monitored. I take great care to ensure that all household items, plants, and cleaning supplies are secured out of reach. When visiting a client's home, I respect their space by adhering strictly to their specific house rules, security protocols, and care instructions. I prioritize transparency and trust, providing owners with regular updates and photos so they can feel completely at ease knowing their pets are safe, happy, and thriving under my dedicated watch.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Flor pet sitting for us. She took such great care of both our bunny and our cat while we were away. Not only did she make sure they were well-fed and comfortable, but she also spent quality time playing with them, which gave us so much peace of mind. One of the things we appreciated most was her consistent communication, she sent photos during every visit, and it was so reassuring to see our pets happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We came home to two very content pets, and we couldn’t be more grateful. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Santa Paula

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Santa Paula on Rover is $16.05 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 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 July 2026, there are 1,353 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Santa Paula. 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 Paula. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
