About: I worked in a Doggy Daycare/Sitting Business called Bark & Purr, so I already have experience taking care and training many different dogs and cats. I am currently doing a side hustle job in landscaping! But the hours are very flexible, so I am free nonstop, especially during the afternoon - evenings. I have two huge parks and a fenced dog park to bring your fur baby to! The apartment is very spacious and dog friendly so you don't have to worry about your dog feeling stressed and claustrophobic.
“Danielle was just amazing! She was house sitting for us and took wonderful care of our 13-year-old dog and 2-year-old cat, giving them lots of love and attention while we were away. She kept us updated regularly, which allowed us to enjoy a worry-free vacation. I would definitely ask for her help on our next trip. Highly recommended!”
“Domenica stayed with my dog Kosmos for three nights. I can only recommend her services. She was very responsive, sent me updates, and took great care of him. Kosmos often gets anxious when I’m traveling, which I can see based on how he acts while I’m away and right after I’m back. But this time he was completely relaxed and happy, which is entirely Domenica’s accomplishment.”
“Manny is an incredible pet sitter. He is responsive and checks in regularly. I was so nervous to leave Stanley, who has special needs, in the care of a new pet sitter but Manny quickly allayed my fears and did a wonderful job. Stanley loves him and looks forward to hanging out with him again.”
About: I have always been an animal lover. I believe all animals deserve respect including the smallest mice. I have 10 years of experience with dogs and cats and i’m looking to make it more! What makes me stand out is I genuinely bond quickly with even the grumpiest dog or cat. I’m currently a stay at home mom looking to bring in some extra money for our family so I can go to school for interior design. At the moment I have an open schedule specifically for mornings, afternoons. I can work with evenings and nights as well if you let me know in advanced. Although I live in a pet friendly apartment complex, we have a giant park and dog park right next to us. Dogs deserve to have outside time and explore just as much as we do.
“Samantha was so great with our last minute request for some dog sitting! She kept us updated with pictures and what our pup was to. It felt great knowing we were leaving him in good hands!”
“Angelina took such good care of our boy! She sent photos to update us and did a great job communicating and keeping us in the loop. She followed our instructions to a t and made sure Günther was comfortable, cared for, and entertained!”
“Jorge was great! He came out to meet my dog before staying with him for 3 nights. He took my dog on great walks and sent pictures and videos. He also came back to give Walter an extra walk when I realized I put in the wrong end time and was so nice about it! Will definitely book again!”
About: As a dedicated dog owner since 2020 and a current medical student with flexible hours, I bring a high level of responsibility, attentiveness, and genuine compassion to pet care. Having managed my own dog’s health, routines, and daily needs for years, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to look after your furry family members. I always prioritize your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness, which is why I only prefer walking or sitting one dog at a time! Whether they need a high-energy walk to burn off steam or gentle companionship while you are away, your pets will be in safe, loving hands. My routine with school allows me to be flexible with midday walks, feeding schedules, and play sessions, ensuring your pups get all the attention and exercise they need right when they need it. While I prefer bookings ahead of time, I can do my best to accommodate last minute walks/care! Your dog’s safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities. I do not overlap bookings to provide undivided attention and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and vigilance I would give my own pet. I am careful with secure leash handling, attentive to environmental hazards, and strictly follow any dietary, medication, or behavioral guidelines you provide. You can count on reliable communication, prompt updates, and peace of mind while you're away.
“Tatiana was great! She was communicative throughout her stay, kept us updated on our dogs, and left our home spotless. Most importantly, our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for when we returned. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
About: I have 4 years of personal pet care experience and 1 year in professional experience with pets, from dog walking to doggy daycares! I’ve dog walked many senior dogs, as well as dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’ll be sure to follow any requests needed to bond with your fur baby and make sure they have the best time! I’ve worked with many companies from daycares to walking businesses. But I’ve been a personal dog walker for around a year now and I’d love to form a strong bond with your pups when needed! I shower my dogs with cuddles and loads of pet time at home. Once I can build a special bond with your fur baby I’ll be sure to treat them like my own!
“Aidan was so caring and professional when it came to my pitbull mix, Base, sending plenty of pictures. I came home to a happy, healthy boy. Aidan was also so sweet to me and respectful of the space he was staying in. As we needed a last minute sitter, I am so so grateful that he was available and really came through. I look forward to hiring him again in the future.”
“We are happy and satisfied with the three days that Keka has been house-sitting our pawlove Hazel. Sure they had quality time playing around the house and outside during their walk. On top of that she got to provide Hazel with some Training that she needed. We appreciate so much the time she spent with our Hazel. We will surely recommend her to our other paw parent friends and surely it won't be the last for Keka & Hazel.”
“Highly recommend J for overnight and extended stays! He stayed at our house for over a week to take care of our dog, Joey. Sent regular updates and was quick to respond to messages. Came home to a clean house and a happy dog!”
About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I've learned that great pet care goes beyond feeding and walking. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and little quirks, and I take the time to understand what makes each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a special appreciation for senior dogs and understand that they sometimes need a little extra patience and attention. Whether it's shorter, gentler walks, keeping an eye on their mobility, following medication schedules, or simply providing a comfortable place to rest, I make sure their individual needs are never overlooked. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being cared for like family. You can expect plenty of affection, companionship, playtime, and attention to their usual routines. I also love keeping pet parents involved, so expect regular photos, updates, and little glimpses of your pet's day. I want you to feel just as comfortable leaving them with me as they do staying with me! I do my best to keep my schedule flexible around the pets in my care. I believe pets feel most comfortable when they can maintain their familiar routines, so I prioritize their regular feeding times, walks, playtime, medication schedules, and rest. I make sure they receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout their stay, while also respecting their need for quiet time and space. My goal is to make their time away from home feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, even when their family is away. Before each stay, I take the time to learn about your pet's personality, daily routine, preferences, and any special care instructions. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, especially when caring for senior pets who may need additional supervision or a gentler approach. I never believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or simply enjoys lounging around, I'll respect their individual needs and let them settle in at their own pace. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet's comfort. I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in caring hands.
“Maria became me and Zeppy's guardian angel. Zeppy suffered a medical emergency while I was in another country and Maria took her to the ER and did not leave her side until I was able to return in the evening the next day. Her updates were consistent, thorough (and with precious photos). She kept me updated during every step big or small and was just genuinely loving and compassionate, navigating everything at the vet. I am so grateful that Maria was Zeppy's sitter and would recommend her to anyone for watching their pet.”

Kahmayah took my request last minute and literally saved my vacation as I would not have been able to go without her. I received pictures and videos daily and my pets were so happy and relaxed. Kahmayah even went out of her way to get here and to grab some food midway through the stay. I will rebook her again next time I go away! I highly recommend her.
After Alex walked Georgie once, and we met to confirm a longer stay, I had full confidence that he could handle my senior, diabetic, almost blind dog. I was right! Not only did I need someone who was caring, patient and responsible, Alex had to make sure Georgie got his insulin shots on time every day, twice a day. I interviewed several dog sitters before I came across Alex. Don't hesitate to hire Alex...you can rest assured he will take wonderful care of your pet.
Danielle was absolutely wonderful. We have 2 German Shepards one working line and young that has a lot of energy and 6 year old large showline male who needs a moment to settle before being introduced. She listened to how we help him feel comfortable and within moments he was relaxed around her. She asks great questions to be sure your pets have everything they need. We also have a 15 yr old cat and she was great at spending quality time with him as well. She is an excellent communicator, gets back to you promptly, took amazing care of our home while we were out. We felt so at peace knowing she was there with them and she made sure they had a great time too. We are so grateful we found Danielle and look forward to her caring for our pets again!
Lesly is the best!!!!! I’m so glad we found her. Our boys are normally very slow to warm up to new people but with Lesly, they were cuddled on the sofa and playing within minutes. She left our home spotless and was so attentive to our boys’ needs. We hope that she’ll be a regular sitter for us!

The average cost of House Sitting in Alpine is $78 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $78 and $78 per night.

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 Alpine 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 Alpine 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 Alpine 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alpine. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
