What a cat sitting job in Jurupa Valley actually involves
Most Jurupa Valley cat homes are detached houses, 23,423 of the city's 29,248 units, so a visit means a driveway and a key left in a lockbox. Another 1,783 homes are mobile homes, where the park gate is the first thing to sort out. Sitters cross Pedley and Rubidoux by car, since only 275 residents commute by transit.
Keys and access
Most Jurupa Valley owners hand over a spare key, a lockbox code or a smart-lock code at the meet-and-greet. Agree where the key lives and how you get in if the code fails, and confirm it before the owner leaves town.
The visit
Fresh food and water, the litter box scooped, a look at the cat and a few minutes of play or a brush. You note anything off, like a skipped meal or a hidden cat, so the owner hears it from you first.
The update
A photo and two lines in the app after every visit. Owners who cannot see their cat for a week live on those messages, and a sitter who sends them without being asked is the one they rebook.
