Allison has been amazing with my boy Andre during her daily visits! I have been using her services for a few weeks now and she has showed to be very reliable and affordable. I'm not sure what I would do without her help, as I work long hours away from home. Having her come midday and spend time with Andre has made me feel so much better about leaving my boy. Highly recommend Allison!

Claudia did an amazing job with Fuji during his drop-in visit! My biggest concern was leaving him home while I was at work all day and worrying that he would feel anxious or not get enough exercise, but she completely put my mind at ease. She was so caring, attentive, and made sure he got the activity and attention he needed. Fuji was happy and relaxed when I got home, which says everything. I really appreciated the updates and knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Claudia to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!

About: I have over 7 years of hands-on experience as a dog owner, providing daily care including walks, feeding, and lots of love. I truly enjoy being around animals and am comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like part of the family. I am currently not working, so I have plenty of time and flexibility in my day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I am fully available to give pets the attention, walks, and care they need. I take care of pets in their own home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get regular walks, and receive plenty of attention and companionship so they feel comfortable and secure.

About: I have had dogs for my entire life and am very experienced with all levels of care from walking and feeding, to administering medication and light obdience and potty training. I am highly attentive, comfortable with all sizes and breeds, and dedicated to maintaining your dog's regular routine so they feel safe and loved while you're away. My schedule is currently wide open for the summer, so I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pups. I do ask for some advance notice, but I am open to accommodating same-day requests when possible. I provide a secure environment for pets in my home with at least 3 walks a day and plenty of engagement. I have a doodle who loves to have "sleepovers" with new friends. Safety is my top priority, so I can easily crate your dog if needed. I am fully able to accommodate any specific feeding schedules and administer any medications if required. I can provide the same level of service in your home as well, except I'll leave my doodle at home ☺️

About: Hi! I'm so excited to get to know your pet. I work from home full time and have a fully fenced-in backyard. I have experience with senior dogs (including my own 16 year old puggle!), administering meds, and puppies I work fully remote Monday - Friday, so I'm able to spend plenty of time with your pet based on your needs. Whether your pup loves long adventurous walks or snacks snuggles at home, I'm ready for it. I have a fenced in back yard and a walking trail right outside my house. My senior puggle gets along with any dog, cat, and human she's ever met!

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.

About: I’ve always loved animals and currently have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and know they often need extra patience and individualized care. I’ll treat every pet like they’re my own by providing lots of attention, affection, exercise, and following their routine as closely as possible. I already care for my own dog every day, so pet care is a normal part of my routine. I make sure he has food, fresh water, exercise, attention, and a safe environment. I’m comfortable sticking to schedules and enjoy spending quality time with animals while making sure they feel happy and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll follow your routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions. I’ll keep a clean, calm environment, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they always have fresh water and feel safe while you’re away.

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.

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 July 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 July 2026, there are 4,342 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.
