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 have six years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have a genuine love for animals. The bond between people and pets in incredible special. Even without words, animals have an amazing way of expressing treat, affection, and companionship. My priority is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. Pet care naturally fits into my routine because I have a flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available for walks, drop ins, and overnight stays. My goals is to provide dependable care while keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I follow each owners instructions closely. I also make sure to update owners with messages and pictures so that you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being well cared for.

I have class Monday and Tuesday from 3-7 pm, and Thursday from 4-5pm, but can work around it. I live in a an apartment in a safe community, with a gated yard.

“I can't say enough good things about Victoria! I had to leave town for eight days, and my original sitter bailed last minute, so I was scrambling. Victoria stepped in on super short notice, and she went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she take excellent care of my cats, but she also vacuumed, cleaned the litter, and even checked on them an extra time to make sure they were okay (she seriously went above and beyond). It can be really nerve-wracking leaving your pets alone for so long, but Victoria made the whole experience so much easier. She’s hands down the best Rover sitter we’ve ever had in LA, and I’m so grateful for how thoughtful and reliable she was. Highly recommend!”

“This was our first experience with hiring a cat drop-in sitter. Ashley was dependable and personable, with tons of cat experience. We hit the jackpot! She kept us informed about our kitty children with texts and pictures. She went beyond the call of duty to help us out with an unexpected pest problem. It was great piece of mind knowing she was checking in on our felines.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15, and I currently have two of my own, along with my mom’s dog, whom I care for on weekends. I’ve raised both my dogs and my mom’s dog from puppies, handling everything from potty training to managing resource guarding. My shelter dog presented a unique training challenge, but with patience and dedication, he’s become a wonderful companion. As the family’s go-to pet sitter, I manage pet care during vacations and offer boarding in my home. Working from home allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day, ensuring your dog gets consistent supervision and affection.

Inside our home, we’ve installed gates that separate the main living area from the front door and garage, providing extra security to ensure our dogs are always safe and sound. We ask that all dogs be up-to-date on vaccines and on a flea & tick preventative to ensure the safety and health of all the pets in our home, including our two dogs. To make sure everyone gets along, we’ll arrange a meet & greet before any stay. This way, we can ensure your dog is comfortable with our pets, and everyone feels at ease.
“Britney is amazing. She was very responsive and accepted a same day booking. I was traveling so we didn’t have a meet and greet. She adjusted the times as needed for my dog. Britney introduced herself to my dog until she was comfortable going out with her. Highly recommended and will be booking with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Santa Paula
A+++ Dog Sitter!! We give Flor 5 stars because that’s what she totally deserves! ⭐️ This is our third time using her and she is now our “go to” because of the special care she gives our fur babies! Great communicator and very friendly and positive attitude!
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!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Santa Paula is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $37 per visit.

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.

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.
