“This was my second time with Rachel! Love how thoughtful and transparent she is! Already have my 3rd visit scheduled with her to take care of my cat while I’m away and will continue to use her services! She’s the best!”
“Kylie did a great job taking care of my 2 cats. Sweet, punctual, responsive and overall easy to communicate/work with. I will not hesitate to reach out to her again when I need someone to care for my orange boys.”
About: I have had my maltese, Milky, for fifteen years and unfortunately had to say goodbye to my childhood dog back in 2023. I would love to meet some new dogs and spend more time with some new friends! I have experience working with dogs as I worked at a dog grooming salon. I had always wanted a dog when I was younger and felt a strange connection to dogs, wherever and whenever I saw them. I have also worked with No Stray Left Behind which is an organization that helps adopt abandoned dogs. I’m currently working part-time so have plenty of time to look after or walk your pet! (: My schedule is pretty flexible so it shouldn’t be hard to find availability! I have a fenced backyard that is definitely safer than just letting the dog outside and also live in a cul de sac where I can safely walk the dog if needed!
“Nancy is amazing! Even though my cat is wary of people and hid when Nancy stopped by, she still went above and beyond during every visit. She made sure my cat had everything she needed, always leaving plenty of fresh food and water and checking the litter box. Nancy was easy to communicate with and even took on the extra task of watering my plants when a heat wave rolled in. I’m so happy I found her and will absolutely be using her again in the future!”
About: My name is Alec, and I do a lot of things, mostly here in South OC :) Many people know me as a local performer and teacher. I have also enjoyed house sitting and pet sitting, for many years. I understand the importance of and have experience with administering medication (such as insulin), giving your pets their normal amount of food and the water of your choice, having litter boxes as fresh as possible when you return home, and giving your fur family as much normalcy as possible while you are away. I also understand the need to feel safe and secure about your home and/or your furry family members, while away. I have lived with and cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, bunnies, and bats (my favorite comic character might have influenced that last bit). As a full time single father of a toddler, I usually have a very flexible schedule, so I'm able to be away from home as needed, and check in on pets if necessary, during the day. My son goes everywhere with me, so I only take on clients with dogs who are safe around small children, and breeds that are not notorious for doing a lot of damage when aggressive, even though I know that some of those breeds, when raised right, can be total sweethearts. I love animals, love people, and love work that involves filling someone's need. Day to day life for me over the years has included a variety of things, all involving people...I was a Swing band leader, Ballroom and Tap dance teacher, actor, massage, concert producer, and I have worked as a naturalist for grammar school field trips at the Donna O'Neill Land Conservancy, and taught children chess through a local after-school program. I have had a live scan/background check, and can provide many client/character references :) As a full-time father of a toddler, my schedule is pretty open and flexible, aside from pet sitting bookings, and occasional teaching of ballroom/social dance in private lessons around OC. I mainly do overnights for clients, providing more attention to your fur family than drop-in visits can offer, and more security for your home. Day visits can be available as needed, for an additional fee. I am generally gone in the daytime, tending to the needs of my toddler and our own pets at home. For overnights, I arrive in the evening, and leave in the morning or early afternoon. I am usually present for 12 hours or more, providing lots of company and attention to your fur family.
“We needed a cat sitter for two a day visits while we were on vacation. We met with Dawn prior to leaving to get to know one another and to go over our expectations. Our cat, Molly, is typically shy with strangers. Dawn took her time with Molly and she let Dawn pet her, give her chin scratches and brush her on each visit. Everything was well taken care of, the house was clean and we received regular texts and pictures to let us know how everything was.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud Doberman mom, caring for dogs is something that is genuinely personal and meaningful to me. I have 6 years of experience dog walking and dog sitting, along with years of experience caring for dogs in my own family. Growing up, I helped care for my family’s small dogs, and now I have firsthand experience caring for my own large dog. Because of this, I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, needs, and comfort level. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care because I experience that same feeling whenever I entrust someone with my own dog. Your pets aren’t just animals—they’re family. I take that responsibility seriously and want every owner to feel confident that their dog is being treated with the same patience, attention, and love I would want for my own. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or simply someone reliable to keep them comfortable while you’re away, I’m happy to provide loving and attentive care. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule and love being able to make time for pets! My availability can change from week to week depending on my work schedule, but my weekdays are typically very open, especially during the daytime. Feel free to reach out! My typical availability: * Monday: Available after 11 AM * Tuesday–Friday: Typically very flexible, with the most availability during the daytime * Weekends: Usually available during the day; evening availability varies depending on my work schedule * Evenings: Often available during the week, with weekend evenings depending on work I’m currently in school for nursing, so I set aside time for studying, and I also work part-time at a brewery with a schedule that varies each week. Because of this, advance notice is always appreciated! It helps me plan around school and work and make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m happy to consider last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows, so please feel free to reach out even if you need someone on shorter notice. I’m always happy to see if I can make it work! I currently offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and daytime house sitting. I’m also willing to travel throughout Orange County to care for your pets. I know how much trust goes into leaving your pet in someone else’s care because I feel the same way with my own dog, Jade. I want every pet parent to feel comfortable knowing their baby is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for while they’re away. How my care for your pet is unique: * Getting to know them: I love learning about your pet’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and happy. * Following their routine: I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, treats, playtime, and any special care they may need. * Respecting their personality: Every pet is different. Some are ready to be best friends right away, while others need a little time to warm up. I’m patient and let each pet get comfortable with me at their own pace. * Prioritizing safety: I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and anything else that could potentially put your pet at risk. I never want to take unnecessary chances with their safety. * Respecting your home: When caring for your pet in your home, I treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll clean up after your pet, keep their things organized, and make sure everything is secure before I leave. * Keeping you informed: Communication is really important to me. In my previous dog-walking and sitting experience, I’ve made a habit of leaving a printed visit summary after each visit. I fill out the appropriate details, including whether your pet ate, potty details, treats given, the duration of the walk, and an overall description of how the visit went. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can see your pet while you’re away. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel like they’re spending time with someone who genuinely loves and cares about animals—not simply someone stopping by to check a box. I know how reassuring it is to receive those little updates when you’re away from your pet, and I want to give you that same peace of mind. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety always come first.
“Samantha was very nice and accommodating for me and my uber shy cat. I even had to extend my stay overseas and she took on a few extra days for me. This might not always be possible, but I'm glad it was in this case. Thanks Samantha!”
“Parnian was a great cat sitter to our two fur babies 😻😻. She gave lots of pets and tended to all their needs while we were away. She is very reliable and would rebook her if needed.”
“Thank you so much Kaitlyn! You are above & beyond! I appreciate how caring you are with my baby girls. And thank you for being so thoughtful in helping with anything extra that was needed at my house. You’re truly amazing!”
“Our cat couldn't get more attention and care. He's very social and loves attention, amd she gave it! Proof was in the amazing pictures we received. Battlecat is super special and our fur baby, so this means a lot. Its heartbreaking to leave him, but when we do, we know he is treated so well by MacKenna. ❤️”
“Homeira “Mae” was an excellent caregiver for my senior cat. He was safe and well cared for and showed no signs of stress upon returning home. Mae is a lovely person and I would trust her again with my cat. I can 100% recommend her for your sitting needs.”

Depending on what your pet needs I am more than happy to help and make sure you as a pet parent feel happy and comfortable with your pets well being and safety.
About: Outdoor enthusiast that thrives off of being active each and every day. Weekly Jogger, Hiker, Longboarder and drummer. Located in Irvine, right next to Irvine Great Park. 2 years, off-booked dog walker in NJ and former Wag! Walker. I spent 2 months fundraising at Ocean County Animal Shelter in my senior year of high school, which started my affection towards assisting our loveable best friends. We raised money to help out my alma mater's high school band program, and connected multiple animals with affectionate families. Availability is always open for discussion, normally between the morning hours, to afternoon/dinnertime. I've been comfortably trained in dog-walking/dog-sitting/house sitting/overnights and drop in visiting. I'm ready to be working for Rover part-time and I couldn't be more excited to meet furry faces in familiar places. I currently work from home, so I have full access in being around your loved one 🤙 My workflow starts around 9:30AM, I'm usually up by 7AM the latest, so we can start the day with breakfast together and a sweet morning walk! I have an open yard backyard, a walking path down to Fairview Park, and an adventurous leash-trained cat at home 😺 I can provide comfort if your loved one needs to be inside a crate at home.
About: With six years of experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities, I provide attentive, compassionate care to each animal’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special requirements, and I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I follow care instructions carefully, keep their routines consistent, and pay close attention to any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. My genuine love for animals and commitment to their well-being sets me apart, giving you peace of mind that your furry family members are in capable and caring hands. I’m a nursing student with a part-time schedule, so I can give your pets plenty of attention and care. I’m available Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays until the end of January, and I’ll have a clearer schedule around the first week of February. I enjoy walks, playtime, and I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can also follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether in your home or mine, I prioritize a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet. I follow all care instructions carefully, provide fresh food and water, and supervise pets at all times. I remove hazards, give pets plenty of attention, and make sure their needs are met so you can feel confident they’re safe, happy, and well cared for while in my care.
About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs and cats for 5 years and also have my own cat! I’ve also grown up with them since I was 11 so feel very comfortable providing a safe fun environment for them. I’m currently working part time as a dance instructor so I have plenty of time to care for your pets day or night! I am available for house sits as well. I can work with your home set up. I won’t be able to host pets in my home due to living in a tight space.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Trabuco Canyon
Lauren watched my cat Lola for 10 days. From the start she was quick to respond to messages. Lauren always left detailed Rover cards with plenty of photos for me to view each day. I could tell Lola was happy and healthy! She even swept up Lola’s kitty litter tracks in the living room. I would happily book with her again.
Lisa did an amazing job caring for my 3 cats and 2 Bunnies who need specialized care. I have been struggling for a long time to find someone who I trust to take care of all of my animals for a while now, and I am so glad that I found Lisa. She was responsive and communicative, showed up when expected, and was very thorough in following my (admittedly extensive) instructions on how to care for my pets including medications for one cat and multiple supplements for the bunnies. She showed good decision making when I was temporarily unable to answer questions, and genuinely seemed to care about the care and well-being of my pets. I can't wait to book her again for our next trip!
Nancy is amazing! Even though my cat is wary of people and hid when Nancy stopped by, she still went above and beyond during every visit. She made sure my cat had everything she needed, always leaving plenty of fresh food and water and checking the litter box. Nancy was easy to communicate with and even took on the extra task of watering my plants when a heat wave rolled in. I’m so happy I found her and will absolutely be using her again in the future!
Sabrina & Marc were great! They visited at the scheduled times and made sure to send us plenty of pictures so we knew Peaches was happy and being well taken care of. I highly recommend Sabrina & Marc and will definitely be having them watch Peaches for us again when we go out of town.
Shahla was incredible! She watched my cat and rabbit for about a week and sent me constant pictures, videos, and updates. I only expected her to clean the litter box and feed them, but by day 2, she was playing with them and giving them love. I was surprised because both animals are very shy to new people, but they must have sensed her natural instinct and warmed up to her immediately. I’m so grateful for her and will definitely use her again.

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 .
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.
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 .

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.

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.
