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.

About: I've lived with dogs my whole life growing up around multiple and even aiding in the birth of a 12 puppy litter into my own family. Which some of those puppies have stayed with us ever since. As well as caring for older dogs as they get into their later years and pass on. I love all kinds of pets either way, from giant wolf dogs my grandfather used to have- to our very own English and French bulldogs that need just as much care as they give in love! I have not has as much experience with cats, but I'm always willing to spend some time with them. Any pet is like part of the family, and they always deserve that love! I currently have a part time job with a changing schedule- however if I am booked at least 2 weeks in advance, I can make sure that I have certain days and times available. A heads up is all I need! I care for pets in others homes just as they would. It can be a big sign of trust to let someone into your home with a pet, and my intention is to leave the way I came in, with the only change being a happy pet!

Misty was such a wonderful pet sitter! She took warm and thoughtful care of our cats, and was so kind and considerate when any small concern popped up. Even our more timid cat warmed to her, and we felt so comfortable while we were away. We would definitely book with Misty again in the future 😊

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.

Sydney showed up at 8am before we left for our day to Disneyland. We acquainted her with our two dogs and they took to her right away.. Sydney really has a way with dogs. They both loved her so much, immediately. Our dog situation isn’t easy. We have a four year-old American bully and a one year-old very energetic pitbull who’s so much fun however, for the time being we’re keeping both dogs separate and Sydney kept both of our dogs, safe & clean, and even though Henny had an accident, Sydney cleaned up everything & was even able to feed her and get her back in her crate safe safely. Our family is so grateful to Sydney for taking such incredible care of our family dogs! Thank you!

Safety always comes first, I ensure a pet-friendly environment free from hazards. While caring for a pet in a client's home, I treat the property with respect and leave it in the same condition as I found it.

Jeanne was great with our 3 kitties when we were out of town for several days and she visited twice a day. She has a clear comfort level with cats and seemed to genuinely enjoy them. Most importantly, she was able to give our diabetic boy shots twice a day with no issues, which was our primary concern and she totally managed it. She also spent time socializing with them all, sent us detailed updates, photos, and videos as we requested, and left the space tidy. We would definitely have her help with our babies again!

About: I had many animals growing up. From dogs to cats to bunnies & hamsters. I have always loved pets and taking care of them. They are all so precious to me. I was a nanny years and I had to take care of their animals as well as the children. I’m currently bartending part time so I spend a lot of my time at home or at the gym in my apartment . I have the flexibility to provide substantial care for pets. Cuddles are a must if they are needed. I can walk, feed, bathe, and give them all the love and attention they need. They will be my #1 priority.

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.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of five wonderful dogs throughout my life, I’ve been caring for pets since I was 11 years old. I’m currently a full-time college student, and spending time with animals is one of my greatest joys. Whether it’s going on energetic runs or playing a game of fetch, I make sure every pup gets the exercise, engagement, and love they need. I always treat the pets I care for as if they were my own, because I understand just how much they mean to their families. I’m happy to accommodate any special needs your dog may have and follow all instructions closely. Long walks and attentive care are guaranteed, though I can’t promise I won’t sneak them an extra treat or two! As a part-time college student, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just offering some calm companionship. My availability allows me to give each pet the attention and care they deserve, without feeling rushed or distracted. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure to follow all routines and instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, administering medication, going on walks, or giving them playtime and attention. I keep the space tidy, respect your home, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

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. She continues to check in and is just so sweet. I could not recommend Mimi enough!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Vista

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Vista on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,415 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
  • 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.
