“Second time we’ve had Jeremy watch our boys and already scheduling with him for our next trip! Great communication, sends lots of pics and our house was clean when we arrived home. Our boys were also very tired which is a sign they had a great time 😊”
“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!”
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.
About: I have always been surrounded by pets and am very comfortable around them! My grandfather, who was a veterinarian, and my grandmother, who was a veterinarian tech, passed their love and passion for animals down to my dad and then to me. Growing up, my dad instilled how to properly care for animals and ensured I was always surrounded by pets, making me feel extremely comfortable taking care of animals. I’m a graduated medical student studying for exams, so my schedule is very free, allowing me to spend more hours with your pet if needed! I love being surrounded by animals and would love to have your best friend as my study partner! Pet safety is extremely important to me! I am able to make accommodations to make your pet safe; just let me know what they need!
“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!”
“Austin was wonderful. He really knows his way around crazy puppies as well as senior dogs. Our dogs were very happy having him sit with them while we were gone for the day. We highly recommend Austin.”
“Elizabeth was amazing! My dog was taken care of the entire time I was gone and I was sent a ton of images to stay up to date. I will 1000% keep rebooking with her in the future to watch my dog.”
“Krista took such amazing care of our 130 lb dog while we were out of town. She didn’t just “watch” him, she truly loved on him, played with him, and treated him with so much kindness and attention. Coming home to a happy, relaxed, tail-wagging dog says everything about the care he received. She also watered our plants, kept us updated with lots of pictures, and went above and beyond by watercoloring a beautiful portrait of our dog as a parting gift. It was incredibly thoughtful and meaningful. Krista is dependable, caring, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with animals. We would trust her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pets and home.”
About: I am a full time house/pet sitter! I love the life of taking care of people's homes and beloved animals. I raised my family with tons of pets - dogs, cats, frogs, fish, lizards, snakes, hamsters, etc. I now care for others' in the same way as if they were my own - with complete care and love. I have been on a different app with over thirty 5 star reviews. I am new to this one! You won't be disappointed by giving me the opportunity. :) I work remotely for an organization that specializes in walking alongside foster care youth that are aging out of the system. I can be anywhere to do my job! So I have lots of time to be present for your animals. I am very flexible - accommodating what I do to be in line with the pets' routines and needs. Giving medicine, caring for aging animals with gentleness, lots of play time and cuddle time. I also leave a home as clean (or often more clean!) as when I arrived. Being respectful of others' privacy comes naturally to me and it is something I take seriously.
About: With lifelong experience caring for dogs, horses, and cats, I'm an animal lover and horse whisperer. I train my pets, provide energy healing, and enjoy daily walks. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and have the flexibility to design my own schedule. As an energy healing practitioner, I prioritize mindfulness and balance, which extends to my pets. I incorporate playtime, walks, and training when needed into my day, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. During breaks from my meditation and yoga sessions, I find joy in spending quality time with my pets, fostering a nurturing environment. Their companionship enhances my work-life balance, and I often use sound healing techniques to create a calming atmosphere for both myself and my furry friends. Caring for pets in my home is a thoughtful process. I have a fenced yard where your dog can play safely alongside my sweet 15 year old boxer, who loves companionship. I welcome only dogs that are friendly with cats, as my 4 year old indoor cat enjoys their company. I feed all dogs outside, right in front of my kitchen, ensuring a clean and pleasant environment. Cats are fed separately in the kitchen, with their food placed on furniture to keep is safe from curious dogs. For hydration, I have a water fountain for the cats and a water dispenser for the dogs, both inside and outside for the dogs. When needed, I can easily crate your dog at night; my boxer is crate trained but prefers to sleep freely now. I require that you bring your dog and cat with their own bed, food, and treats, ensuring they feel comfortable. Additionally, It's essential that all pets have a collar with a tag and a leash for safety. This structured approach helps create a harmonious atmosphere for all furry friends in my care.
“I was a first time Rover user! I was very nervous to allow a stranger into my house to watch my furry babies for such a long period of time while I was completely across the country. Zoe was so wonderful at our first meet and greet and even agreed to come over a second time to make sure she had everything covered before we left town. She was communicative and sweet with both of my elderly dogs (I'd categorize them both as high maintenance for different reasons). I would definitely recommend her for dog/house sitting. She was terrific - five stars. :)”
“As someone with 4 creepy herding dogs who aren’t usually interested in bonding, I cannot recommend Kailey enough. She made going out of town so low stress for me and like a vacation for them - she will 100% be my go-to pet sitter from now on! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
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.
“Lindsay was a great dog sitter for our dog. She shared lots of pictures! She was in good communication with us if needed. We came home to a clean house. She even washed the sheets and towels. I would differently use her again.”
“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 have fostered cats since 2020 and have volunteered at my local animal shelters since 2018. I am familiar working with cats and kittens of all ages and needs (bottle feeding - seniors) and can confidently give medicine and clean pets with extra needs. I have worked with small dogs throughout this time (helping stimulate/play and clean them up) and have taken care of young puppies <1 year overnight with around the clock care. I am completely free on weekends from 4am-10pm and am flexible with my hours especially if overnight care is needed. I work full time on weekdays and have a flexible schedule which allows me to work remotely from 7am-4pm. I am free for visits and caregiving 4am-6am and 4pm-10pm on weekdays. I am comfortable and willing to respect your animal’s boundaries where needed, and I will do whatever I can to ensure your pet is safe. I understand some pets are shy and some are more social, and am comfortable working with all types of personalities to cater to their needs as necessary. I can supervise eating/bathroom use as necessary and provide extra stimulation and play time whenever needed.

Stevie was absolutely wonderful. We. Could tell or two crazy aussies were very well taken care of. She sent us tons of posts and they seem so happy when we got home , we will definitely be calling her for our next trip. Thanks again, Stevie for making our vacation, extra relaxing, knowing our babies were taken care of.🐶🐶
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.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
