About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was a teenager, and I truly love spending time with animals—it feels like such an honor and a privilege. While I don’t currently have pets of my own due to my travels, caring for other people’s pets helps fill that void until I can adopt a furry friend of my own! I work from home with a flexible schedule. I pet sit and dog walk for friends and family whenever I can because I love it. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. I always make sure the environment is secure, free of hazards, and suited to the pet’s needs. I follow any specific instructions from the owner, including dietary restrictions, medication schedules, and preferred routines. When walking dogs, I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoiding unsafe areas and extreme weather conditions. In a client’s home, I ensure doors and gates are properly closed, and I respect the pet’s space while providing plenty of attention and care. My goal is to create a stress-free, comfortable experience for both pets and their owners!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of pet sitting experience and a lifetime of caring for dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have my own pup, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and loving to care for your pet. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, companionship while you’re away, or extra love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m experienced with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved! I work from home on my own flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care, walks, and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m able to be reliable, attentive, and flexible to your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I treat both with the same care and respect I would my own. I make it a priority to follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions to help them feel safe and comfortable. I also love providing updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! Thanks for checking out my profile, here’s a little about me. My family has had at least 1 dog and 1 cat in the house since I was 8 years old. My family currently has 2 dogs (yellow lab and black wire-haired dachshund), and 1 cat (Siberian). I used to be an equestrian, have watched many different animals (including guinea pigs), I’ve volunteered at dogs shelters, and recently cared for a 2 month old puppy. As you can expect, I am very comfortable with animals and attuned to their unpredictability and unique needs (potty training and feeding schedules, gentle socializing, chew-proofing the house, reading their moods and managing the energy of multiple animals at once. I’m a very sensitive person, so being around cats and dogs especially brings me joy and peace! They definitely sense that because whenever I visit my parents all my pets follow me around like tails! If I didn’t travel often, I would get a pet of my own. On a more personal note, I love being outdoors and finding any green space possible (especially in NYC), so your dogs will enjoy walks with me! I’m very attentive to garbage eating/smelling/stepping on walks, especially in NYC, so your dog will be safe with me! I’m currently working part-time with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to watch your pet! I am based on Long Island but can easily come into the city for longer care. I’m in the New York area until July 15 and in NYC between 2-8 July, if you need someone to watch your dog over the 4th July weekend while you’re away! If boarding on Long Island, we have an unfenced yard and beach access, perfect if your dog likes swimming. Bonus is my 2 family dogs, so yours won’t be lonely!

About: With a lifelong love for animals, I bring years of hands-on experience to pet care. Since I was 11, I’ve been pet sitting for neighbors, walking and caring for their pets like my own. I have a dog and a cat at home, and I understand how much pets mean to their families. My goal is to provide them with all the love, attention, and care they need while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, which gives me plenty of time to care for pets and give them the attention they need. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can usually adjust my schedule depending on the pet’s routine and the owner’s needs. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any house rules. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and are never left in an unsafe situation.

About: Hi, I’m Daisy! I have three cats of my own—Hehe and Haha (15) and Toto (1)—all of whom I’ve raised since they were kittens. I come from a big cat-loving family and have years of experience fostering cats of all ages. I'm familiar with everything from senior cat care and administering special diets to keeping playful kittens engaged and happy. Whether your cat needs extra cuddles, medication, or just someone to keep them company while you're away, I'm here to help! I currently work full-time as a research associate, but I love spending my free time with animals! Pet care fits perfectly into my evenings and weekends, and I’m happy to do early mornings or drop-ins depending on your pet’s needs. Caring for animals is a joyful break from the lab! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I give my own. With experience caring for senior cats, young kittens, and pets with special diets, I understand the importance of being attentive and gentle, especially when meeting new animals. I'm very clean and organized, and I make sure to leave your home just as I found it. I take the time to build trust with each pet at their own pace, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

When my husband and I brought home our puppy, Bridget, our biggest concern was how she would be cared for while we’re at work. Alice and Trey alleviated any worries and then some! They are communicative, attentive, and treat Bridget like one of their own. I can go to work with total confidence and peace of mind that she is well cared for and enjoying fresh air, exercise, and socialization. They have been nothing short of a blessing for us as our pup grows!

Cary is a lifesaver!! She made sure my pets were taken care of when I was away at a wedding all day. Multiple check ins, plenty of photos, lots of cuddles given and she even got to spend time with my very shy cat. It is evident she cares seriously for your animals and provides the very best of care. She’s a very kind and sweet woman too! Thank you so much for helping me!

About: My friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk & care for their loved puppies/dogs ever since I could remember. I have been a devoted animal lover my entire life, and enjoy connecting with them on such a personal level :) I’m currently on an extended summer break and I am free of a full time job so my schedule is very open throughout the week to spend lots of time with your pets! I care for pets at my clients home by following their instructions thoroughly. I want to give pets companionship, while also feeding, walking, entertaining, and cleaning up after them.

About: Hello! My name is Cecelia and I am so excited to get to know you and your pet! Growing up, I have always had a dog in my house and all of my extended family members have pets as well. I love going to parks and finding exciting and fun places. I love taking walks and am able to handle any sized pet. I have my own transportation so errands are not a problem. When not at work, my schedule is very flexible and I am a very easy going person. I work in biotech M-F and have weekends off. I will always send pics of your fur baby and as many updates as you’d like! I have a mini goldendoodle (30lbs) named Ollie who is such a love bug and gets along with any sized dog. Cant wait to meet your fur baby :) M-F I work in office for about 9 hours a day and am home no later than 4pm most days. When home, I love to take my dog on walks around the neighborhood or take him to a park. On the weekends, I bring my dog to get coffee with me and we take a walk on the beach. I love being as active as I can with my dog and would love for your pet to join us! I provide a safe, calm, and enriching environment with plenty of exercise, attention, and supervision. I live in a dog-friendly condo community directly across from a park, so dogs enjoy regular walks, potty breaks, and outdoor time throughout the day. We also take neighborhood walks on the many nearby sidewalks, and sometimes stroll through One Paseo for new sights and smells (with owner approval). On weekends, I’m typically home, so pets receive lots of companionship and aren’t left alone for long periods. When I do run errands, I often bring dogs along if we’re visiting pet-friendly places. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while keeping their routine as close to home as possible.

About: I have been a dog owner and animal lover my whole life! I am loving, compassionate, trustworthy and responsible. Your pets will receive a lot of attention, playtime and love from me! They will be treated as one of the family. I have raised my own puppies and cared for my senior dogs. I have fostered dogs for Norcal Golden Retreiver Rescue (where I rescued one of my dogs) and I have also volunteered at Pets In Need for both dogs and cats. Many friends call on me to help walk, feed and pet/housesit for them when they go out of town. Over the last 7 years, I have worked as a Personal Assistant/Home Manager for many high level executives and have cared for their homes and pets. I have over 30 years experience with cats as well. I raised my own kittens and would be happy to care for yours as well! Sadly, I lost my 12 year old Golden Retriever, Jax, in October 2024, so I have a lot of extra love to give. I'm currently home working on small personal projects and available most weekdays, so I am very flexible and have plenty of time to care for and play with your pet or pets! I'm available most weekdays and some weekends as well. I have a safe, fenced in yard. We live on a quiet cul-de-sac and live in a very dog-friendly, loving home. All pets are treated like family :) Your pet's safety and happiness are very important to me.

Marla was an incredible sitter!! She was kind, communicative, and went out of her way to help care for our diabetic kitty and our home. In the heat of summer we had some ants show up and wildfire scare while we were away. Marla was so thoughtful. Our kitty loved her and was happy when we came home. Thank you!! 💕🫶

Chunli was an amazing cat sitter! She followed all of our instructions carefully and always left detailed updates after each drop-in visit. She took wonderful daily photos of Oreo, and it was clear from both the pictures and her updates that he really took a liking to her. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about his well-being. We also really appreciated that she noticed and shared changes in his bathroom habits. We would absolutely book Chunli again and hope she’s available the next time we’re out of town. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Nycole was fantastic. One of the best pet sitters we've had. Our cats are friendly, but can be somewhat reserved to strangers. They took to Nycole immediately, even letting her hold them. Nycole was responsible, timely, and professional. She spent a good deal of time playing & entertaining the cats during her visits. Nycole asked if we needed any small extra efforts, such brining in patio furniture before an upcoming storm. Nycole is 5 stars all the way!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Solana Beach on Rover is $21.4 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 4,561 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Solana Beach. 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 Solana Beach. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
