“Sidney was awesome we needed someone last minute as our original pet sitter backed out and she really helped us out. We could t really tell her an end time and she wasn’t worried about it. Our buy is 16 and takes a little extra care and she really did awesome with him. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and friendly person to watch your pet!!!!!”
“Tatum was great with our pups! We met with her beforehand so she could get to know our boys and their routine. She sent us pictures everyday while we were away and kept us updated on everything that was going on! Would absolutely love to have her watch our pups again!”
“Keirstan watched my 3 dogs for the weekend and I would definitely have her house sit again! She always made sure to keep me updated, sent pictures/videos, took them to the dog park, and made sure they were always comfortable and tucked in for bed. I’m always nervous leaving my dogs but I felt at ease with her staying there and watching them. Will definitely be requesting her services again!”
“Eva was wonderful! We had a relatively last minute request and I’m so thankful to have found her! She is incredibly professional, scheduling a FaceTime call ahead of time to ask thoughtful questions to make sure we’re on the same page. During the stay, she was so sweet and took great care of our fur baby. She is also extremely commutative, sharing thorough daily updates and photos. Would definitely recommend her and already looking forward to working with her again!”
“Neysha was amazing, we have some picky animals and they all loved her! She kept us well informed for the entire duration of her stay sending pictures and updates I can’t anything negative about her. Highly recommend.”
“Maricarmen did a great job taking care of my dog while I went out of town. She sent lots of communication and pictures so I would know Bindy was ok. I highly recommend her and will not hesitate to bok again”
About: I've been a pet owner for half my life. I could not imagine life without a furr baby. They bring joy to my life. They are part of my family. I work from home so it makes it easy to attend to the needs of taking care of your pet. I can work on a flexible schedule. I have a fenced yard with plenty of running space. I have one small shihtzu who would enjoy the company. They are free to roam in the house as well.
About: ❗️If your house has any signs of fleas, do not book with me.❗️I have always grown up with pets in my house hold, i have always token care of them when no one else did and gave them the love they deserve. We are with them their entire lives, while they are with us for only a portion. I will be gentle and patient with them until they gained my trust. I can bathe them and play with them too, i cannot groom though. But i can make them smell all yummy! College student! I do go to college all year, even in the summer! I don’t have an outside job, so the only thing taking me away from your furry family is school! I’m always open and i can always get to your fur baby’s when needed! I have 1 doggy of my own and she has fear aggression towards other people and dogs, i’ve learned to work around her personality and to go forward. I bathe my dog by hand inside my home every 1-2 months (depends on if she gets dirty, she’s got a self-cleaning coat) and she gets fed every night! (she eats at her own pace so i just top off her bowls) She is trained to sit, paw, talk, wait, and lay down! She is my first daughter and my soul dog! I love her to death!!
“I was introduced to Rover by my co-worker, who recently used the service and told me his positive experience. So, I decided to try Rover service and selected Alexadra as our pet sitter to take care my 2 loving dogs and my kitty. She kept me informed of their activities around the house and sent me pictures of them while playing. I'm very happy and satisfied with Alexandra services. Most definitely I will book again with her.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was a teenager. From 20 year old chihuahuas, nursing day old kittens, and 80lb king German shepherds.. I’ve volunteered at a few animal shelters. Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. My work schedule is 7-4, Monday- Friday and have evenings and weekends free. Over the weekends I am available all day and evening. For week days I can visit your furry baby any time after 4! I have a big fenced in yard and have two loving and playful dogs that enjoy making friends. I have 2 cats that are incredibly friendly but also leave my dogs alone. I have crates available and my neighborhood has sidewalks that are perfect for dog walking.
“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our 12-year-old dog. She actually house that for us and we could tell our dog was very happy and comfortable when we got home. She was very clean and tidy around our house, sent us updates with pictures every day and replied to any text that we had very timely. We appreciated her, taking care of our fur baby and our home. We will definitely book her again! Highly recommend her.”
“Teri is simply the best! She’s been such a great part of my pups life as their favorite pet sitter. She’s a dog mom too so she knows how hard it is to leave your fur babies but she makes it so easy for me. I don’t know what I’d do without her. My girls just love it when she’s there and I feel so comfortable leaving them in such great hands.”
About: I have 1 to 1½ years of experience working in veterinary and kennel environments, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands when you’re away. I have two dogs of my own, and I would treat your dog with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own pets. I know it can be stressful when you’re traveling, working long hours, or simply need an extra set of hands to help care for your furry family members. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time and will soon be attending school part-time as well. Despite my schedule, I have flexibility throughout the week and am fully available on weekends. I understand that pet owners often need reliable care while working, traveling, or managing busy schedules, and I am committed to providing dependable care when you need an extra helping hand Creating a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment is very important to me. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and care so they can feel secure while their owners are away. To help build trust and ensure the best experience for everyone, I prefer to meet your dog before the first walk or pet-sitting visit. This allows me to get to know their personality, routine, and comfort level, while also helping your pet become familiar with me. Every dog is different, and taking the time to establish trust beforehand helps create a safe and positive environment for both your pet and myself.
“We are grateful for Kimberly’s patience and care she had for Daphne. Daphne is a sweet girl with arthritis and some dementia. Kimberly was the perfect caregiver for her. We knew Daphne was in good hands. Thank you, Kimberly”
“After I had to leave for a family emergency, Michelle was able to watch my dogs within hours, and did such a great job despite my lack of in depth instruction. My boys looked happy in every picture and knowing they were well taken care of gave me the peace of mind that allowed me to be present in my situation. I cannot thank her enough”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Arcadia on Rover is $46.06 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 1,399 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arcadia. 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 Arcadia 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 Arcadia 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 Arcadia 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.

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.
