“We are so grateful for Austin’s taking care of our Doberman Fred. From the very beginning Austin was super responsive, came over to meet our dog to make sure they are a right match. Afterwards Austin returned to observe Fred’s habits couple more times and to walk him with me. During our 1 week trip he remained in contact with us with frequent updates, helping us with our separation anxiety. The dog and the house were in one piece upon our return (even with some treats left for Fred and us, along with a sweet note ). We would recommend Austin to any dog owner wanting to have a peace of mind during their absence and looking forward to having him over dog sitting again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Julia and dogs have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with an Old English Sheepdog that I miss dearly, and caring for her showed me how amazing it is to have a strong bond with a pet. Over the years, I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors to care for their dogs. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have a flexible schedule and would love the opportunity to help care for your pup! I’m an online graduate student, so I have a fairly open schedule. I'm available most weekdays and weekends, allowing me to provide flexible care for your pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal with the same care and attention I would give my own. I strive to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether we're going for a walk, playing, or simply keeping a routine, I focus on making sure your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Stevie was aaaaamazing! She and Wolfie got a long like they had known one another forever. He was exhausted when I got home, which made mommy very happy. She had taken him to Malibu farmer market where he was adored by all. Thank you!”
“I can’t say enough about what a wonderful help and a great communicator Courtney has been during our time away! She took such great care of our two dogs, sent updates and pictures regularly and was always extremely thoughtful. Our house was spotless and she will highly recommend her services.”
About: I have had a pet dog or cat ever since I was born. I have had experience with pets at a variety of ages, including very young, and super seniors, such as 20. Depending on the times that you may need sitting, I am available to come early in the morning, feed to your specifications, and do a variety of other pet caring chores. If your pet requires lots of play to get energy out, that is something I more more than happy to do. I have helped care for a variety of age groups and energies. Theres a big difference in the work required for an active puppy, and an aging friend.
“Marty was amazing! She took care of our pets and home like they were her own! She was great with communication always keeping in touch and sending updates! Would highly recommend Marty if you don’t want to have any second guessed while you are gone as she holds it down! We have 3 dogs - 9 month old puppy, an 8 year old frenchie and a 15 year old Pomeranian! Each dog has specific needs from play time to medication and she takes care of it all with absolutely no problem! Thank you again Marty!”
“Jeremy was great with our boys! They can be quite the handful but we came home to two happy and tired pups! He communicated well thru the whole stay and sent plenty of pictures!! We already have our next house sit with him scheduled 😊”
“Hailey is a wonderful Petsitter. She took care of our 2 dogs and 1 cat, staying overnight at our house for 4 nights. She made sure the dogs had fun in the backyard and pool, and gave all 3 furries plenty of cuddles. Frequent communication via text with photos and video. Highly recommend Hailey!”
“Hilda house sat and walked by our dogs while we were away over New Years. She has a calm, warm presence that was perfect for our two girls, one of whom is quite skittish. She was conscientious about our instructions, communicative before and during the stay, and even helped us with training for leash walking. We definitely will use her again…. We felt confident while we were away and could just focus on our vacation.”
“Went above and beyond to make sure that I felt comfortable, followed all directions and was very attentive and very flexible. Will definitely use her anytime. I’m in vegas thank you so much Cyndi .”
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I work from home! We have a huge double fenced in yard. Animals are therapy. I had farm animals for years and ready to just give love to dogs and cats. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect while maintaining a calm, clean, and secure environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible while you’re away, giving you complete peace of mind.
About: I love dogs and have had dogs all of my live, and had taken care of them when they were puppies, so potty training, playing and keeping and eye on them, and also when they were sick and old, so giving extra attention to their wellbeing. Pets are family members that need to be cared for, treated with respect, as well as provide them with some fun play time. I’m currently working part time so I have time to spend with your pet during week days and can provide visits twice a day in case that is needed. I would keep them on their leash whenever we are outside, always keep the door closed to avoid them running away and follow the house rules.
“Madelyn is now our 4-mo-old puppy's favorite person! She gave up her Thanksgiving to stay with Ziggy at our house, but it wasn't just a "stay." Madelyn played with her and give her so much love and attention. It was just what Ziggy needed and we were so happy to trust her with our puppy! We're also very happy that Madelyn will be coming back to stay with Ziggy again in a couple of weeks. Thank you, Madelyn!”
“Whitney is a dog whisperer! Our dog is anxious around anybody but her immediate family & Whitney had her curled up next to her after one day. Absolute miracle. Whitney was very communicative the entire time and very respectful with our house. Thank you so much Whitney!”
About: I love all animals and have had dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, hamsters, birds, honey bees, a turtle and fish.... oh my! I am currently a life-coach specializing in health and wellness and because I do this remotely, I have the great opportunity to also be able to help others out by taking care of their home and animals while they are away. I raised a daughter as a single mother and when we went out of town I paid sitters to stay at our home in Aspen and Los Angeles and care for it and my animals while we were out of town, so I thoroughly understand what is expected of a home and animal sitter/walker. I love all animals of all sizes and I would love to help you out caring for your animals and/or home. You can visit my website to learn more about me and my business. My website is KimberlyLynnWilliamsdotcom Because health and wellness is my life, I do not smoke, drink, or do any kind of drugs, or even medication’s for that matter. Because I’m so healthy, I am chemically sensitive. I am only available to sit in homes that use fragrance-free detergent and fabric softener, natural cleaning, products, and do not use any kind of plug-ins, or air fresheners. I don’t have a problem with 100% pure essential oils at all. I do have a little 5 pound toy sized Maltese- Pomeranian dog named Rosie that travels with me. I used to have Rosie and two Newfoundland’s but when I lost my newfies, Rosie needed to be with me 24 seven. She’s 12 years old. She doesn’t care anything about cats and leaves them alone. If you’re interested in connecting, I would be happy to come and meet and see if it feels like a fit. I have my own business and I work from home, which frees me up to health care for your pets in your home. It’s an ideal situation. I only sit in your home as I currently do not offer sitting in my own home. I find that this is more comfortable for the animals to be in their own home anyway.
“Sierra did such a wonderful job house sitting and taking care of our dog and cat. Our dog is deaf and can be very timid around new people- Sierra was very patient and caring with her and provided us with pictures and updates. We would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”
“This was the first time we've ever had someone stay at our house to watch our dog. We are so happy with the results. We felt so much better knowing Kobe was in a familiar environment for the 5 days we were gone. Zoe did a great job watching our rascal(!) of a dog. We will definitely go this route the next time we go on vacation.”
“Hannah was very communicative, arrived promptly, and most of all, our two year old lab adored her! She made friends with him quickly (and he usually is a little hesitant with new people). Otis felt comfortable with her and it was obvious that she knows how to care for, and speak to, dogs. We will definitely use Hannah again! Otis has a new best friend and her name is Hannah!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Agoura Hills is $65

Julia took great care of my 2 huskies and cat for 3 days and nights. They got plenty of attention while my family was away allowing us peace of mind to enjoy our vacation. She gave our dog medicine daily and helped monitor her uti symptoms for us while still upholding their daily routines. I would book her again and recommend her for anyone who needs specialized care for their pets.
Having Avery petsit was a joy as always! This is our second time using her and the longest trip we have ever taken! Avery was professional, attentive and my cats absolutely love her! I can not praise her enough! I will absolutely be using Avery whenever she is available for all of my future pet care needs.🥰
Sam & Solene are absolute *dream* pet/home sitters. They are so kind, communicative, and professional. We didn't worry once while we were away and we came home to very happy and calm pets. They also left our house SO clean. They really go above and beyond, and we are so grateful to have found them for future pet/house sits! Thank you, Sam & Solene! 🌺
This was my first time having a sitter come to my house to watch my puppies and I could not have made a better choice than Taylor. Her attention to detail, professionalism, follow up, and her love for her job and animals are top notch. This is a testament to her superior work ethic. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing fully well my 2 dogs are well taken care of. When I came back home, my dogs looked very happy and the house was in pristine condition. If you’re looking for a a reliable, trustworthy, professional animal lover, Taylor has my highest recommendations.
It is so clear our Ellie was cared for with genuine love and attention the entire time we were away. Dee Dee kept us well‑informed with updates that gave us total peace of mind, We can tell Ellie felt safe, happy, and completely at home. We’re incredibly thankful—and we’ve already booked her for our next trip because she’s truly amazing.
Jezrah-Valerie was a great sitter for my little bad boy, Bu. Bu is a Portuguese water dog, which means that – – even according to the books – – he can be expected to be willful and quarrelsome. He has a bark that you can hear in China. And he knows what he wants and when he wants it he is very opinionated, but he also is the cutest little dog you’ve ever seen all 72 pounds of him and also one of the strongest dogs you will ever find. And also, he is very mouthy, which means that he will run his teeth along your hand, never ever wanting to bite you, but just to let you know that he has teeth just in case you didn’t know. He will not use his teeth on you unless you physically attack him, which is unlikely in a Dogsitter. The only time he ever has used them that I’ve seen was a giant Cane Corso, with close-clipped ears and quite an attitude attack attacked him. And so Bu defended himself admirably, flying through the air to avoid being bitten himself. At any rate,, Jezrah is always thinking. She is proactive and very bright. She loves dogs. She has a charming smile which never disappears. She is sweet. She loves dogs. She is generous. She is cheerful. My little bad mischief-maker was all smiles, even though I had been gone for 9 hours. I boo is not a dog who wants to be on his schedule. When he has to pee, he will tell you. He eats at regular times, but sometimes he is not hungry then so he does not eat. He gets hungry later and wants to eat so he tells you when he is hungry. You either have to have a Dog’s mind, or being in sync with his personality, or pay close attention to him to know when he is hungry and when he has to go out. I have had him since he was little.l, and mamas know these things. But other people might not. Just figured it out pretty quickly. And boo was a happy camper when I came home. I loved her personality and her attitude and the way she took care of BU. I told her she should raise her prices, but she hasn’t done it yet. I would say, if you can get her, and she has the time availability, you should definitely grab her when she is available. She comes up with her own ideas on how to do things sometimes and they work just great. I will definitely be using her again… just don’t take her on the night or days that I need her., please. Ha, ha.

FAQs for House Sitting - Agoura Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Agoura Hills on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 11,359 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Agoura Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Agoura Hills walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Agoura Hills maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Agoura Hills choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Agoura Hills. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
