“This our third time using Chelsea and she is nothing short of magic. We’ve trusted her in our home. We have trusted her with our most precious fur baby. She’s been kind, loving, on time, professional and someone we can call a friend. Thank you, Chelsea.”
“MeiLing responded to texts, sent pics of our dogs, and we returned home to 2 happy dogs and a clean house. Was friendly and the dogs seemed to really take to her. Would definitely use her again in the future!”
“Cailin was a great sitter for my dog Koko. I came home to find him happy and relaxed. She walked him and fed him just as I had requested. She not only took care of Koko but also helped take care of with my bird.”
“Esther was wonderful with our Kiki. She was nice, clean, responsible, and took great care of our dog and house. It was the first time we were on vacation from our puppy and Esther sent us updates and videos so we knew Kiki was in good hands. Highly recommend Esther for your dog sitting needs.”
About: While I’m new to Rover, I’ve been caring for pets and homes for over 15 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, senior pets, medication administration, and multi-pet households. I’m excited to bring that experience to Rover and build lasting relationships with local pet families. (: FUN FACT: I have the same birthday as Caesar Milan, so I’m kinda like a dog whisperer 🤪 I’m a housewife with no pets or children of my own. I do theater every now and then but overall my schedule is wide open and ready to share the love and care necessary for your furry companion. I’m not sure why Rover says I don’t allow animals on the furniture. I don’t mind unless it’s a rule within your home to keep them down (: I will honor all of your wishes with caring for your loved one and treat them as if they were my own. I have a fenced backyard and safe neighborhood for walks. Your furry friends will be protected and their comfort is always going to be top priority whether in your home or mine. (:
“Jade took great care of our senior GSD for 6 days. She communicated with us about Buzo's feeding schedule and made sure that he's fed on time. I'd highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. :)”
About: I am a responsible, dependable, and caring person who loves being around animals. Having grown up with two different sets of Shih Tzus, I love learning each animals’ unique personality and bond with them. I have previously cared for both family friends and friends pets and looking to expand! I am confident in my ability to follow instructions and provide attentive care. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, and I am willing to take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am excited to provide reliable and trustworthy services to both pets and their owners. I typically have a flexible work schedule. When I don’t have to travel for work, I am working from home. I have the ability to both provide care at my house as well as travel to yours to help reduce stress on your pets! I have a small fenced in patio for business to be taken care of, as well as access to parks/dog parks within my neighborhood if your pet is comfortable with that. I have a gate to block the stairs (at my house) in case your pet likes to wander, and have the ability to let them roam throughout the house. Whatever your pet is used to, I try to accommodate that!
“Kaylynn stayed overnight and took wonderful care of my two BIG strong breed dogs- Pitt Bull and Bull terrier. —-she loves animals! Also took great care of my home and cleaned dogs dishes. Highly recommend her.”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog sitter with over 20 years of dog ownership experience and 2 years of home-based dog boarding experience in the San Francisco Bay Area. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for nearly 100 dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities! I recently moved to Fullerton and am excited to welcome new furry friends into my home! 🏡 A Loving Home Away From Home I live in a spacious 3-bedroom house with a fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and relax. I also have private rooms available for dogs who prefer their own quiet space. 🐾 Small-Scale, Personalized Boarding I accept a maximum of 4 guest dogs at a time, so every pup receives plenty of individual attention, affection, and care. I believe in quality over quantity! 🐕 Experienced With Dogs of All Sizes As a proud dog mom of two large dogs, I’m especially comfortable caring for big breeds. I also have experience with senior dogs, shy pups, and dogs with different routines and care needs. ❤️ What Your Pup Can Expect • Daily walks, playtime, and plenty of attention • Regular photo and video updates • Personalized feeding and exercise routines • Separate feeding and resting spaces when needed • A clean, comfortable, and loving home environment I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet & greet. 🐶❤️ Currently I work at home and have much time to stay with pets. I will take them go out for at lease twice a day. When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of the family. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment, with plenty of love, supervision, and one-on-one attention. I also make sure they get the right amount of activity and downtime based on their personality and needs.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 6 years old. I have been able to successfully train multiple dogs and my cats are on a well managed schedule. I have learned about the importance of nutrition of animals. I used to also volunteer at an animal shelter. I have a lot of patience and understanding of an animals needs. I currently work remote with flexible hours. I have my own form of transporting and can go work anywhere. I am usually at home most days. My dog is very welcoming with other dogs, she likes to play. I do live in an apartment but I work remotely so my schedule is flexible. I am very detail oriented and follow directions well.
“She was absolutely incredible! Watched our cat and dog with the upmost care! Kept me updated every day and let me know if anything was up with the pets and even our home! And the fur babies just loved her company! Made them feel very comfortable and safe! Played with them, walked and fed in a timely manner. Just hands down one of the best sitters! Highly recommend hiring her!!”
“Gabby did an amazing job dog sitting for our little fur baby Romeo. This was the first time we used Rover and I contacted Gabby based on her location and profile. Turned out to be the best decision I could’ve made for me and my wife. We were traveling with a pooch to catch some games in Anaheim and Gabby was available to take care of our little guy Saturday and Sunday. Gabby was very attentive, she sent pictures and videos and really made the experience special and worthwhile. If you need the services and you’re in Orange, California, try to book Gabby you won’t be disappointed.”
“Kirsten is a godsend! She handled my 2 needy dogs and 4 cats without any problem! I felt totally relaxed knowing my babies were well taken care of ! I highly recommend her 😊”
“Can’t say enough good things about Sarah! Loved her interaction with my fur babies, loved her desire to learn about my dogs and ask questions, love the pictures and communication….. and absolutely love her professionalism . I believe Sarah will succeed at anything she chooses to do because of her great work ethic. Will definitely use her again!”
About: I genuinely love building bonds with the pets I care for. I treat every animal like they’re my own and give them plenty of affection and attention. I am very reliable, communicative and respectful of owners instructions and I always make sure pets feel safe, loved and understood. I offer pet walking and pet sitting services for both dogs and cats, and I'm committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. While I haven't owned a dog or cat myself, I've had a guinea pig and have experience caring for my friends' pets, including feeding, walking, playtime, and giving them lots of attention. In the past I have watched my sisters cats multiple times while she’s been away and friends have asked me to watch or walk their dogs when they are unavailable. I understand how important it is to follow routines closely and respect each pet's unique personality and needs. I am currently a full time student in university, but I have free time on certain weekdays which includes Tuesdays and Thursdays after 2:30 or before 11am where I will have plenty of time to do drop in visits. I am completely available on the weekends from Friday to Sunday. When I’m in a clients home I am respectful of their space and make sure to leave everything just the way I found it. I keep pets on their usual schedule, I always spend time giving extra attention and comfort so they don’t feel lonely while their owners are away. I send regular updates and photos so owners know they are in good hands.
“I highly recommend Laura! She was so nice and took great care of Koa! She followed our care instructions to the T and we came home to a tidy home. She went above and beyond in taking care of our home and sending us updates. Thank you so much, Laura!”
“Shhelby recently watched my dog when I was out of the country and did an amazing job. My dog was having tummy issues and Shhelby handled it so well, was very conscientious, and sent me thorough and frequent updates. She left my place cleaner than she found it and most importantly I could tell she really cared about my dog. Strongly recommend her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Anaheim
Lyndsey was so sweet and communicative! She kept us updated on Chewy with pictures and videos and went out of her way to make sure he felt comfortable with her. Chewy loved her, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
Stephanie was great! She stayed at our house with the dogs for a few days and was really attentive and caring. She sent photos while we were away, and it was clear the dogs really liked her. She also took great care of our home, and everything was spotless when we got back. Would definitely have her stay with them again!
Lucy was great with Phoebe and Diesel! She was reliable, caring, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving them with her. Both of them were happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would definitely recommend Lucy and would happily have her watch them again!
Tritia is just wonderful! She's very warm, friendly, communicative, and clearly a pet lover. My dogs have never been so cared for. She stayed the night with my pups and they were perfectly happy; I don't think they missed me at all. I'll be booking with her in the future!
We went out of state for 5 days and had never left our cat so I was wanting someone at the house with her and so the house would not be vacant - We were very happy with Kelsey! She came over to meet with us first and we really liked her. She took good care of our cat, fish and even the outside animals / birds as I requested which meant a lot to me (not a typical request but she was great about it!) We loved how she asked questions when she had any via text. She also sent us a lot of pictures which was great! We recommend Kelsey!
Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home and took such great care of our dog Mookie and our house. From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable and knew Mookie was in good hands. She was responsible, communicative, respectful and sent lots of updates and photos. We would absolutely trust Stephanie with our home and dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

We were very happy with Dahlia. We could tell from her updates, photos, and videos how much she really loved our dog. Dahlia played all of Shadow's favorite games, kept to her schedule, and cuddled with her. I think Shadow might actually be happy the next time our family leaves for a vacation because she enjoyed Dahlia so much!
Emylie is absolutely wonderful! Very caring with my little baby. She frequently sent me pictures of Freyja and the status of her wellbeing. If you want a lovely human to care for your furry family member, Emylie is your girl. Thank you so much, Emylie for making Freyja feel safe and happy while I was gone. 🙏🏽

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Anaheim is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $96 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 12,342 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Anaheim. 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 Anaheim 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 Anaheim 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 Anaheim 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 Anaheim. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
