“Kaitlyn did a great job watching my cat for me while I was gone for a while. He was happy and healthy when I returned. I received photos twice daily when she checked in and it was great!”
“Best Rover experience ever! Loren is amazing and flexible. I was impressed with how quickly Loren connected with my needy and special 100+ pound dogs. She sent lots of updates and pictures and allowed me to truly relax while on vaca, knowing they were cared for.”
“Great repeat sitter for our almost 5yo dog and 15yo cat. Came home to our tupperware we used for the pet food washed and out in the drainer. Thank you. Will definitely use again.”
“Andrea is my go to sitter when I need help with my 2 pups when I'm not around. It's hard to find people you can trust so it's puts my mind at ease knowing Andrea will show up and love on them.”

“Audrey was so amazing with Bear! Very attentive and took such great care of him while we were away! I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative pet sitter! Looking forward to asking her to watch our pup again! 💕”
“Alexis is the absolute best. She visited our cat Carter a couple times while we were on vacation. And it gave me such a peace of mind. She sent lots of pictures and he was happy as can be. Alexis played with him and let him spend time on our balcony (which he loves) and gave him some of his wet food (again which he loves haha) and cleaned his liter box. She just did everything and more. So I would highly recommend Alexis caring for your beloved pets! I know I will from now on. This was my first time using Rover.”
“Amber was absolutely awesome. My 2 Dobermans felt so comfortable with her, she gave me updates every time she was there feeding/walking them, also sent updated pictures of them. We are so grateful and happy to finally found someone to care for our pups while we are away. 10 ⭐️”
“Michelle was amazing! She was super attentive and clearly cared so much about my pets. She kept me updated and sent the cutest pictures, which made me feel really comfortable while I was away. I could tell my babies were well taken care of and happy. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter :)”

About: I'm very accustomed to all kinds of dogs! From pups to elderly dogs, small to large I'm the right guy for the job. I've raised all 3 of my dogs from puppies along with helping friends with theirs. I have tons of experience in cleaning and keeping them busy so I am more then happy to help with watching pups! I also have experience with elderly dogs that require medical treatment, as long as I get a detailed explanation on the steps to help I'll be able to follow them perfectly. I also live with very large dogs so I have all the experience with how to handle them no problem. I'm currently in College studying Mathematics. While I am still in the area I am a lot more busy on weekdays so as long as you are ok with me leaving for a little bit for classes then I'm down to help out. I have 2 very friendly dogs while my third is pretty territorial so while I can make sure your dogs are safe and acclimate them to the others, I feel it would be best to stay at your house.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in high school. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. I also have a 12 year old malti-poo of my own that hangs out with me, and take on walks everyday. I’m currently working Mon-Thurs so I have a flexible schedule on the weekends, and lots of time to play with your pups, plus a malti-poodle of my own to play with your fur friend. I have a fenced back and one 20lb dog to help keep your dog company. I can also crate your pup if you need me to.
About: I’ve had animals all of my life and I love meeting new fuzzy friends! I’ve had experience with all types of animals! I have two cats of my own and take care of them dog my sisters two cats and our family dog! I work for a senior care company but because it’s not super reliable in terms of a set schedule I’m looking to help pet parents whenever I can! I’m very reliable! My regular job is a in-home healthcare for seniors so I’m always in their homes cleaning their houses and stuff like that, as well as as if they have pets taken care of those as well. I care for all of my pet clients just like I with them. I respect the houses that I work in like they are my own!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Santee
Lara did an excellent job taking care of my two 🐈 .She was always on time and very reliable, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated the regular updates she provided after each visit—it was reassuring to know how my cats were doing and that they were in good hands. She was attentive, caring, and clearly experienced with pets. My cats were well taken care of, and I could tell they were comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend Lara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter!
Michelle was amazing! She was super attentive and clearly cared so much about my pets. She kept me updated and sent the cutest pictures, which made me feel really comfortable while I was away. I could tell my babies were well taken care of and happy. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter :)
Victoria was amazing with our cat! She was prompt and came at the same time everyday to feed and play with our girl. I got tons of videos/photos, along with very detailed notes about how she was and how the visits went. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and encourage you to reach out to her for your fur babies! Thank you so so much again for everything!
Shelby and Dalton were amazing! They did an initial meet and great with our cat prior to the scheduled drop in visits. They were thorough during the visits and were very good sports when our cat was being feisty. They even brought out/in our trash bins when asked. Would definitely recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Santee on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,211 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Santee. 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.

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.
