“Emma is one of the best sitters I've found on here! She is attentive, punctual, and very detail oriented. My cat doesn't give an eff for strangers, but she took to a liking with Emma almost immediately! It made the trip away super easy knowing that Emma was taking amazing care of my furry idiot.”

About: I pride myself on being exceptionally patient, calm, and observant. I know that every pet has a unique temperament—some love non-stop belly rubs, while senior pets or shy dogs need a gentle touch and extra time to feel comfortable. ​I excel at keeping daily routines consistent, giving plenty of individual attention, and making sure pets feel safe, secure, and loved. I’m super reliable, prompt, and keep pet parents updated every step of the way! Because I have a flexible daily schedule and full open availability 7 days a week, pet care is my primary focus. Whether your pet needs an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or evening care, I’m available to give them full, undivided attention whenever they need it. Being so flexible allows me to stick strictly to your pet’s regular routine and schedule without rushing. In my home, your pet will be welcomed as part of the family in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I keep a close eye on all pets, ensuring they get plenty of affection, outdoor time, and structured playtime balanced with cozy rest periods. I stick closely to the feeding, potty, and medication routines you set so they feel right at home. My goal is to make their stay feel like a fun, relaxed home-away-from-home experience with lots of photos sent to you daily.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always been known as the animal lover in my family and friend group. I’ve had more than seven dogs of my own over the years, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I’m also the person my friends and family call when they need someone they trust to care for their pets. I’ve cared for multiple dogs in my home and have experience with potty training and teaching basic commands. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make each pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals, taking them outside, playing with them, and making sure they receive plenty of attention. I’m available during the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in home and a clean, secure yard where dogs can safely get fresh air, play, and take potty breaks. I keep a clean environment and make sure pets are supervised and have a comfortable space to relax. I’ll also follow any specific instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, routines, or special needs. Most importantly, I treat every pet in my care the way I would want someone to treat my own. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.

About: While I don't have much traditional dog-sitting experience, growing up, I had 2 dogs, a Maltese and a Maltese Shih Tsu mix. My last dog, Oreo, was a Maltese-Shih Tsu mix, who passed away from old age when I was in college. I was always diligent about training him, and I often bathed him myself. He was fully potty trained by me with the help of google, and he knew plenty of cute tricks. He also had a tendency to run off every chance he got, but I was always able to find him easily and bring him home safely. I also had regular play dates with my cousins' dogs, and sometimes I would dog sit for them. I'm pictured with my cousin's elderly yorkie, Roy, who was rocking his sunglasses in his little bag because he was incontinent, couldn't walk any more, and needed 24/7 care. I didn't want to get another dog after Oreo because of my busy class schedule and then I travelled for work. Now, I've recently become unemployed, and I am looking forward to spending some time with your fur babies while hopefully raising some money to adopt my own! Ive recently become unemployed, so I my schedule is highly flexible! If I don't have any Rover appointments, I am usually working on my dog training certification, or going to workout classes in the early mornings. On Monday evenings, I have bible study with my mom. If you trust me to enter your home, I assure you I am responsible and respectful of other's property, and I try to leave things better than I found them, if I absolutely have to move or borrow something. Im great with following instructions, so I can accommodate any special requests and respect and unique boundaries. I am also respectful of your pets space, and I will always start with a cautious introduction. I understand dogs and cats body language, and Im confident that I can establish a positive relationship with your fur baby, to make sure your absence, and my strange presence has as little stress on them as possible! I also understand that it can be difficult to be away from your fur baby, so I am willing to keep you updated however much you need to feel comfortable, especially the first time we work together.

About: I have experience taking care of senior dogs, including administering medications and eye drops. I've also taken care of younger dogs and can keep up with high-energy puppies. I currently spend most of my time studying at home and taking care of your pet would be a wonderful break for me. Sometimes, my schedule can be variable depending on what my study schedule can look like, so I would love to talk ahead of time to figure out what's best for us and your fur baby! I completely understand the responsibility and trust needed to leave your fur babies and your home to someone else, and I will work hard to preserve that trust and take care of both. I will send regular updates so you can be at ease that things are going well.

Thank you Jungseo for taking great care of Leah! She was patient when our cat was being difficult and moody, and proactive in communication. Best of all, Leah went from refusing to interact during the meet and greet (our own fault, he thought he was going to the vet) to warming up and playing with Jungseo within just two visits.

He kept me updated and sent pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Tustin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Tustin is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 11,190 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tustin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tustin. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
