“Josh was a life saver for us! We just moved to California and needed someone we could trust to watch our cat and he was exactly what we were looking for! He was so helpful to us, allowing us to still be able to travel and do what we need to do and know that our cat has a friend to look after them while we are away. So grateful for Josh, he is a must book, you won’t regret it!”

“Kevin did such an excellent job caring for our cats while we were gone for the holidays. He gave our cats plenty of attention and love. He even sent us videos of them even though we didn't request them. I would absolutely rebook with Kevin. I recommend him 10/10.”

About: I grew up in the small town of Valley Center and have been around animals all of my life. From dogs and cats to horses and sheep, I have worked with them all. I love animals of all sizes and would love to show care and love for your animal when you need it. I have raised puppies and had senior dogs. Worked with all types of livestock. I was in FFA in high school and raised cattle and sheep and was an officer. I work a job 5 days a week but will work around my main job. I start that job early at 5 am, so I'm open to early afternoons and evenings. Can do very early if needed, and closer to on my way to work. I will treat everyone's home like my own or like my best friends or sisters home. every pet will be treated as my own and get to know them so we both can be safe and happy.

About: I have over 15 years of experience walking and pet sitting, and I truly love what I do. Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer stay, I make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I run my own dog walking and pet sitting business and care for multiple regular weekly clients, along with one-time and occasional visits. Reliability and communication are very important to me, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Over the years, I’ve raised 9 dogs of my own, so dogs have always been a big part of my life. Your pup will be safe, loved, and well cared for with me. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life. I run my own dog walking and pet sitting business, so my schedule is built around the pets I care for. My weekdays usually include regular walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I make sure to leave space in my day so I’m never rushed. I plan my week around my clients so each dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and love. This isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s what I do — so I’m able to be reliable, present, and fully focused on the pets in my care. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and any special instructions. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and send updates and photos so you know how they’re doing.

About: I have volunteered at the humane society for about 2 years in total. I have had pets since I was 3. I was going to school to become a vet but schooling just got too spendy. I will love your babies as if they are my own I swear to you. I currently am unemployed so I am available to house sit, walk, play, or do anything you need me to for your pets whenever you need!! I have a fenced yard with fake grass. I live with one dog and two cats. I will feed them according to whatever you tell me but with my own pets they usually get small meals throughout the day. My cats are indoor only as well but can go outside with supervision.

About: I am an all around animal lover. I grew up in Hawaii with a connection with all animals and have a deep connection and respect for wildlife and nature. I have lived in Colorado, Tennessee, and now California. I have two large breed rescues of my own and have lots of experience with all size dogs, cats, birds, and exotic pets. I am extremely comfortable with medication administration, reactivity, heavy pullers, training reinforcements, situational awareness, animal body language, and animal welfare. I am available for drop in visits, walks, overnight stays, and any animal needs. I am currently a full time student and dog dad with time in between my dogs routine to help other fur babies through their day. I am a responsible and trustworthy animal friend who understands the importance of following through with individualized care to ensure furry friends and their owners are protected and supported in their day to day.

About: Hello! I am a Registered Veterinary Technician with decades of experience caring for animals of all kinds. I have recently stepped away from full-time veterinary work to pursue my passion for behavior as I study to become a professional dog trainer. Caring for pets of all kinds has always been my passion, and I treat every dog as if they were my own! Whether your pet is young, senior, or has special needs, I can be counted on to provide safe, attentive, and loving care. My goal is to help your pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved when they are in my care. My experience and training offer owners piece of mind, while updates and photos keep you up to date on your pet's care. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend(s)! -Juliette I am currently working part time "per diem" but have scheduled workdays on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am available Saturday - Tuesday all day. If you need a visit on Wed, Thursday, or Friday, please reach out and I can let you know what I can offer! Every walk or stop-by is tailored to your individual pet's needs, energy level, and routine. Your pet will enjoy safe, loving, and engaged visit full of attention, positive reinforcement, and time to sniff and explore (for pets where this is applicable). After each visit (or at the end of the day for multiple visits in a day) you will receive a summary of the visit with an update of the fun we had!

Josh was great and I booked last minute since I just moved to the area. I had a bad experience with a previous pet sitter which left me traumatized and Josh understood that and ensured he would take good care of my cats. I appreciate the check ins and pictures and it helps put me at ease when I am away from home. Overall it was a good experience especially being so last minute and despite a few of my cats being very shy he tried to make sure they all were fed and well taken care of.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Valley Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Valley Center on Rover is $17.76 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 4,421 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Valley Center. 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 Valley Center. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
