“Baileigh did a wonderful job with our cat Babette! Babette's mood was warm and happy when we returned. She warmed up to her right away. Baileigh kept us updated with cute pics and our place was just as we left upon return!”
“I would recommend Karlee to anyone looking for a sitter. While she watched our Golden Retriever, she stayed in communication with us while we were away, sent photos with updates, took her on walks, left our space clean, and she took really good care of our girl. With our permission, she even took her over to her house during the day to play with her own dog. We had a great experience with Karlee and would book with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of doggies of all kinds (big to small, puppy to senior) for most of my life. When I was younger I was trusted by many in my neighborhood whether it was staying with their dogs, having them stay with me, or getting them out for walks! I have also cared for a family friend’s three dogs for two weeks at a time on multiple occasions, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets and keeping up with their routines. I have a pup back home named Scruffy, he just celebrated his sweet 16🐶. My schedule is very flexible right now, so I’m able to give your pets lots of attention throughout the day and keep them company. I am happy to care for them in my home or come to yours, whatever makes you and your pet most comfortable! Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. My home has a fenced-in yard, which gives dogs a secure space to get outside and play. I’m also happy to follow any specific feeding, walking, or care instructions to make sure each pet feels comfortable and right at home.
“Catrine “Cat” was everything I could have asked for. My regular sitter cancelled a month before my vacation and I found Cat on here. We did a meet and greet and my boys were comfortable with her, which isn’t always the case. They can be selective. Leading up to the booking Cat reached out to offer to come over the morning before I left to make sure she had all the information she needed, which I appreciated. While away she kept in daily contact with text and pictures assuring me the boys were safe, well taken care of and having a great time. She was concerned my one dog was looking a bit skinny because I had changed his food and asked if take could feed him more, for her to notice and ask was a great feeling knowing she was paying attention to them. My other boys takes medication and she had no problem giving him his “pill pocket” twice a day. My dogs have a walker and she texted me commenting on how happy the boys seemed to be with Cat. She was respectful of my home and it was neat and tidy and the bed sheets and towels were washed and folded, above and beyond. If you want to leave your animals in caring, loving hands then Cat is your person. She will definitely be my go to for future sitting during my vacations.”
“Liz did a wonderful job watching our kids. We have one large dog and one small dog. Liz did a great job of catering to each of their needs. We could see through the pics that she sent with updates that they were happy and well cared for making it easy to relax while on vacation. And we came home to a clean house and happy dogs. We will definately reach out to her again when we need a sitter.”
About: I'm Fear Free certified, which means I'm trained to keep pets calm, comfortable, and stress-free, especially the anxious or shy ones. My clinic background also means I'm comfortable giving medications, noticing when something seems off, and knowing when a vet visit is needed. I have a special soft spot for senior pets. Older dogs often need a slower pace, extra patience, gentle handling, and closer attention to their routines and health, and I'm happy to give them all of that. Whether your pup is a rowdy youngster or a sleepy senior, they'll be treated like family. I live in Bountiful with my own little mixed-breed sidekick, Monty, who also loves meeting new friends (if your pup is social!). Send me a message. I'd love to hear all about your pet and set up a meet-and-greet! I'm usually available weekday mornings & evenings (mid day if it’s close to Bountiful for a potty break), and anytime during the weekends. I plan my day around the pets I'm caring for so meals, walks, and meds happen on time. For overnight or boarding stays, your pet won't be left alone for long stretches, and I'll always let you know my plans ahead of time. Message me with your dates, and I'll do my best to make it work! When I care for pets in your home, I treat your space and routine with the same respect I give your pets. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, litter boxes, and any house rules, and I keep things as close to normal as possible so your pet feels secure. Using Fear Free techniques, I let shy or anxious pets come to me at their own pace and keep the environment calm and quiet. My vet clinic background helps me spot changes in eating, bathroom habits, energy, or behavior, and I'll contact you right away if anything seems off. I'll also tidy up after your pet, bring in mail or packages if you'd like, and make sure doors are locked when I leave. You'll get updates and photos throughout so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Zoe was amazing! Our German Shepherd is typically an anxious dog around new people but Zoe made him feel comfortable almost immediately. We felt very secure knowing that he was being well taken care of. Plus we got lots of pics and updates throughout our time away. We will definitely be having Zoe over again to watch Obi!”
“Natalie is simply amazing. She is kind, attentive, and responsible. She put us completely at ease so that we could enjoy our vacation without having to worry about our dog. I will DEFINITELY use her again in the future.”
“We have never left our pets for this long before so we were a bit nervous beforehand. Everything went great! We returned home to happy, well cared for pets. Thank you!!!!!”
“Mechelle is the best! She sent photos and updates everyday. She definitely spoiled our dog while we were away. Finally had a vacation where we didn’t stress about our dog!”
“Christine was a fantastic sitter for us! We appreciated her great communication, all the attention she gave our pup, and how well she took care of our place. We will be sure to check if she is available next time we are out of town 😄”
“Karla was very helpful and considerate to Jonah while stopping by and watching him. She frequently informed me of whenever she walked him, fed him, and played with him. Highly recommend if you have a dog with trauma!”
“Ashley is absolutely wonderful! She has the sweetest, most caring demeanor, which is exactly why we felt so comfortable trusting her with our puppy. She would be amazing with any dog, but I was especially impressed with how confidently she handled our 8-month-old German Shepherd—she had no problem with her at all! I also really appreciated Ashley’s flexibility when our flight was delayed an entire day and we had to return the following day. She was so accommodating, confirmed everything quickly, and we were able to rebook her within minutes. That kind of flexibility meant so much to us! What I loved most was the communication. Ashley sent us photos and updates every single day so we knew exactly how our girl was doing. As a dog mom with anxiety, leaving my fur baby behind can be really nerve-wracking, but Ashley made it so much easier because I knew she was in good hands. ❤️ We would absolutely trust Ashley with our puppy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, reliable, flexible, and truly wonderful with dogs! 🐾💕”
“Nathalia is the best! This is my first experience on Rover and she did not disappoint! She kept my 2 month old puppy entertained which can be tough so i’m so grateful for that! She made sure to update me on how my puppy was doing and did everything I asked perfectly. So nice and would definetly have her house sit again!”
About: HELLO! I have 2 cats, 2 dogs, and 3 guinea pigs, all wonderfully cared for!! My passion is animals and I am working towards a career in veterinary medicine and research! I may be young but I have worked for a dog walking/ sitting business before (in Williamsburg, VA) for around 2 years. I have had years and years of experience with my own pets and helping out with others!! I am currently away from my home in Ogden (living on campus) and I would love to continue to make an impact in animal lives! (Don’t worry my fur babies are being cared for by my lovely parents while i’m away). I will always prioritize your pets comfort and happiness and am great with flexible schedules and spontaneous events! If you need to cancel or you need an on demand pet-sitter, i’m your girl! I go home each weekend on friday and stay through Sunday morning to visit my family and my pets! When i’m home, I am mostly on-duty for my animals. I always put them first and then when they’re ready to nap I can do schoolwork! I have no problem getting down and dirty with cleaning up messes as cleaning is another thing i enjoy! While i’m here, pet care fits in for me in between my classes and in the evenings! I’m pretty flexible with my schedule! I will provide walks, play time, feeding, treats, and clean up!! My favorite thing is a happy animal, so I will work hard to ensure this happens!
“Heather was able to do a last minute meet and greet and watch my dog when my other dog sitter cancelled the night before I was supposed to leave. So grateful for her responsiveness and coming to help quickly. She did a great job taking care of my dog who liked her immediately when we did the meet and greet. I came home to a super clean home and happy dog. I would definitely book her again and recommend her to someone else for pet care.”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a child. Was that kid that tried to take in strays but of course my parents wouldn’t let me. I’ve taken care of dogs on and off during my life. Family, friends etc. and found since I can’t have one at this moment in my life, would love to be around them as much as possible. I’m a Medical professional and work full time but on my off time I would love to take care of your doggies when I am available. I will take care of your dog like I would take care of my own. With all the care, exercise & play time they need.
“Jai's attentiveness and responsiveness made me feel completely at ease about being away from my dog for the first time in a long time. My senior dog Cooper is a nervous wreck without me but he did not appear to miss me. I came home to a very relaxed dog and perfectly clean surroundings. Jai gets my golden stamp of approval 5-star rating. I'm excited to travel again knowing I have my home base covered. Thank you SO much Jai.”

Nichole is a top notch dog sitter. She stayed with our older greyhound in our home for five nights. She provided updates and was excellent at communicating. Our dog was happy and well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely have Nichole stay with him again!
Tiffany was the best kitty babysitter! She sent us so many photos and videos of our babies while we were gone. One of my cats got scared of the fireworks and Tiffany sat in our unfinished basement with her to help her feel safe. She kept our home clean and did exactly as we asked. The cats were happy when we arrived back home. We will definitely work with Tiffany again in the future!

Thankful for the availability, communication and response time in finding a sitter for the dogs. The meet and greet was nice with Trista beforehand and for her to feel comfortable with the dogs/home. It looks like food got mixed up during the weekend and I also had to deep clean upon return home for some pet messes. I'd consider Trista for when we are in a pinch but with better written instructions.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Arcadia is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $50 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 October 2026, there are 2,607 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.
<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 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

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.
