About: Dogs have always felt like family to me. I grew up with them, caring for, training, and learning that dogs need more than just supervision. They need patience, structure, and a home where they feel safe. Since I work from home, I’m around most of the day to give your dog steady walks, companionship, and attention. Whether your dog is high-energy and needs structure or anxious and needs patience, I’ll meet them where they are and help them feel comfortable. I’ll follow your dog’s routine closely, treat them like my own, and keep you updated so you always know they’re in good hands. I work remotely, so caring for dogs fits very naturally into my day. Since I’m home most of the time, your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches and will get regular attention, supervision, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I'm available most days – even holidays! Just let me know what dates you're interested in booking and I'll do my best to accommodate your pup into my schedule. I keep my home clean, calm, and safe so dogs can settle in and feel comfortable while they’re here. I know every dog has their own routine, so I follow your instructions closely, including meals, walks, crate time, medications, exercise needs, and any special care requirements. I’m comfortable with crate training when needed, and I always make safety the priority, both at home and on walks. I’ll also send regular updates so you can relax and know your dog is happy, cared for, and doing well.

We were so fortunate to find Ang! She is just a lovely person and so patient with our kitties. We have one cat who is hard to get along with and Ang had her purring, kneading dough and giving her kitty kisses within 2 days. She also helped collect our mail and sent beautiful pictures of all the cats. We felt so comfortable knowing that our fur babies were in good hands while we were gone. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future help!

About: I've worked with dogs and cats since 2008 where I started at the humane society. After working there for four years I worked at at animal hospital for ten years and also owned my own pet sitting business during that time. Being around animals is second nature to me! I am currently a stay at home mom. The only times I am really unavailable is when dropping off my own children at school in between the hours of 730-8am and school pick ups between the hours of 130-230. I have a large fenced in yard. I have a sliding glass door that has a built in doggie door so they animals all have access to enter the home or head outside at their own will. I also have a side yard that is fenced away from my large yard for those animals that need extra time to adjust or would prefer to be on their own instead of with the pack. The side yard has half artificial grass and half concrete that is fully shaded.There is AC in the summer and a heater for the cold winters that your pet can enjoy.

About: We both grew up loving and taking care of our family dogs. When I was in college, I often worked as a dog sitter for neighbors and friends. I was able to build a network who trusted me with their precious pooches. We are still in the process of trying to find a pup of our own but in the meantime, while working from home, we have plenty of time to care for your pet. You can expect lots of snapshots and frequent updates (as often as you’d like) to keep you posted. Whether your furry friend prefers to lounge on the couch or go exploring and running around, we're happy to do what makes them happy! We love hiking, exploring, and discovering the gems in our city! I work from home full time so have the ability and flexibility to be available for your pets needs. Since I am still looking for a dog of my own, it's a great way to love on pups and get my fill of activities with walks or downtime snuggling on the couch. When staying at my home or a client's, I will always follow their guidelines and rules in terms of what is allowed. Mine is a very dog friendly home so they are always welcome on furniture or in the bed as they see fit.

About: I have experience training puppies, bathing, grooming, and taking care of older pets with medical conditions. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, rabbits, reptiles, and aquatic friends. I currently work part-time and I’m studying for the MCAT with plenty of time to look after your pets and housesit. I only work a few hours a week in after school care, so I can dedicate most of my time to ensuring your pets are well taken care of. I understand separation anxiety while you’re away may affect some pets more than others. Keeping them comfortable at home would prevent adding on more stress to your pet and you. Thus, I would prefer to stay overnight and pick up where you left off with their routine. I’m very calm, reliable, know how to handle emergency situations, and I’m an animal whisperer :)

About: I have grown up with a love of taking care of animals. In 2020 I officially started watching pets for more than just family, animals of all types and sizes. I have helped by checking in on pets throughout the day, taking them on walks, overnight watches, and I have even worked with families to train their fur babies. I currently am a full time student and work part time but since I have decided to enroll in more online classes this semester it has left me with more free time. I live in a gated community with a small fenced front patio and access to a dog park down the street for some much needed time outside.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dog breeds since age 15. I previously volunteered in the dog training school at the Humane Society in Minnesota, training puppies through adult dogs in basic skills. I have owned two large breed dogs into their senior years and currently have a pandemic pup who is now 6 years old. I will walk short and slow walks or energetic and longer walks as needed! I’m recently retired and have plenty of time now to help fellow dog owners with busy schedules keep their dogs exercised and happy. I walk daily and would love to have your pup join me. I have a smaller fenced yard and a 55 lb pup of my own. Most of her exercise is walking out in the neighborhood and if the dogs are good together we can all walk as a group. We previously had a second dog, a St Bernard, so our current pup is used to walking with other dogs.

About: Hi, I’m Aaliyah! I have loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets taught me very early on that every animal has a unique personality and specific needs. I know how important it is to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away. Because I currently work part-time, my schedule is incredibly flexible! This means I have plenty of open daytime hours, flexible breaks, and open days to dedicate entirely to your pups and pets! I strictly follow familiar daily routines, maintain open communication with regular photo updates, and treat the client's home with the utmost cleanliness and respect so everyone feels completely at ease! :)

About: I grew up with dogs and cats being a member of the family! Every pet has a unique personality so whether yours likes to nap, run, nap, cuddle, hike bark at things, go for car rides, get lots of pets, sniff the same spot for 10 minutes, play fetch, or just have someone to hang out with, I'm happy to meet them wherever they're at. Pets have always been a constant throughout my life, and I've had my own 90lb German Shepard mix for almost 14 years. I'm very comfortable with all ages, quirks, special needs, mobility needs etc. I'm reliable, communicative, I'll keep you as updated as you want to be, follow your routine closely and care for your pet with the same love I care for mine I work from home most days of the week, have a very flexible schedule and can almost always work around whatever is needed for your pet Your pet's safety and personality always come first. Catering to whatever their needs are, I always pay close attention on walks, I'm well vetted with dogs and cats who might be escape artists, and I'm very comfortable with sticking to whatever routine you have for them

About: Hi! We’re Karlee & Jordan, a dog-loving couple who believes every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and at home while their family is away. We understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, which is why we treat every dog who stays with us as if they were our own. Because we work together, your pup benefits from two dedicated caregivers instead of one. We prioritize boarding in our home, where we can provide a calm environment, plenty of companionship, and nearly constant supervision. Whether your dog enjoys playing at the nearby park, relaxing on our private patio, or curling up on the couch for snuggles, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved throughout their stay. Animals have always been a big part of our lives, and caring for them is something we genuinely enjoy. Together, we have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities—from tiny companion breeds to large, energetic dogs like German Shepherds. Karlee has experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, reptiles, fish, and birds. This experience has taught her how to recognize different temperaments, adapt to each animal’s unique needs, and provide patient, attentive care. Jordan has years of experience caring for both dogs and cats and is especially comfortable establishing routines, providing exercise, and helping pets feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. Together, we make a great team, ensuring your pet always has plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. We know every dog is unique. Whether your pup loves long walks, endless games of fetch, quiet cuddle time, or simply sticking to their normal routine, we’re happy to tailor our care to what makes them happiest. We’re also comfortable administering oral medications, following feeding schedules, reinforcing training routines, and accommodating any special instructions you provide. Our goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your dog is being cared for with the same love, patience, and attention we’d give our own.

About: I am kind and loving and gentle but firm when needed. Years of experience raising various pets and kids. What you out in is what you get out when it comes to your pets I’m home other than running and hiking and being a mom taxi. I have a lot of free time during the week. I attend hikes on so long runs on Saturday mornings and I attend church on Sunday mornings and serve in kids ministry I currently have a beloved cat, so I do not offer boarding in my own home. I provide care in the client’s home where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow feeding, medication, exercise, and routine instructions.

About: I have been taking care of pets for years, and I love spending time with all animals. I help friends and family when they are gone on vacations or even close neighbors who need their pets taken care of. I honestly have so much love for animals and believe they are the best friends for hoomans. I lost my old man in 2025, and definitely have a soft spot for the older ones, but enjoy the way puppies have so much energy as well. Whenever I had to leave my little guy with someone I just wanted to trust he was being loved and taken care of as I would if it were me, and that is what I strive to do for all animals I sit/walk for. People want to know their pet is safe and having a good time so they can enjoy their time and not need to worry, and that is my goal. I currently am working from home and have to occasionally meet clients outside of my home. My schedule is very adaptive to being able to walk, feed, play, or whatever is needed. I have a fenced yard and my house is very dog friendly and in my opinion they run the home. That being said if there are rules for your dog I will adhere to them as to not break any training they are currently in or have learned.

Olivia was wonderful! I could tell right away that she took great care of my boys and kept everything so clean. I know my cats can make quite a mess around their food and litter every day, so coming home to those areas spotless was such a nice surprise! She was very punctual, and I loved receiving their little daily report cards and photos. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. I will definitely hire Olivia again!

Rhonda took great care of our cat. She kept her food and water bowls clean, and kept the litter box area clean also, Plus, she and our cat seemed to enjoy one another's company. This made us happy, because our cat is a social, loving creature, and she would have been lonely without Rhonda.

Mimi went above and beyond caring for my sweet, super senior girl. She is very experienced and knowledgeable and noticed right away when something was off with my baby. She took her straight to the vet and her quick actions have given my baby the best chance to recover from a sudden medical emergency. She kept me updated on everything.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Vista

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Vista 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 4,475 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Vista. 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 Vista. 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.
