About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life. They are my passion. I have watched family and friends pets from all ages and species. Im currently a part time college student, and I have 2 pets of my own. I have an extremely flexible schedule, since my classes are online. I love going for long walks and building trust with animals! I also love to just keep animals company so they’re comfortable while their parents are away!!
“She is very kind and caring and did a fabulous job taking care of our Star while we were out of town. She was also very responsive and we will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“Pamela was great! She was responsive via text and left the house in perfect shape. We felt reassured knowing our pups were in good hands while we were away for a whole week!”
About: I have professional work experience taking care of clients’ animals! I have worked with pets of all kinds, and I always love meeting new animals! I am a full time student, but my classwork is fully online. Over the summer, I will have lots of free time to dedicate to caring for pets! I know exactly how important pets are to their families, and I am dedicated to providing the same level of care I would for my own pets. I want to make sure all pets are able to get the care and love they deserve!
“Martie was amazing! It was our first time being away so long and having someone house sit and care for our elderly dog and energetic cat. We received so many pictures, and so many good ones! She put our mind at ease. And she was so responsive with communication. Should we need this service again there is no doubt we would want her!”
“She was amazing. Our trip came at not the best time for our pets. We had just blended our families and our pets were still getting use to each other. She was able to help them become friends and learn to live with each other. She sent pictures every day and they were all very happy. I highly recommend her and will use her again”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better house and dog sitter! She took wonderful care of our three dogs over the past four days, and we returned home to happy, well-loved pups and a house in perfect condition. She was highly communicative throughout our time away, providing updates that gave us complete peace of mind. She handled a few unexpected challenges with professionalism and ease, which truly speaks to her reliability and dedication. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I can’t say enough great things about her—she was absolutely fabulous! We would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dependable and compassionate sitter.”
About: I am an experienced house sitter, and I love helping animals feel safe and comfortable! I have a lot of energy to give to pets that need it. I was on a multi-month hiking trip, but had to come home early due for personal reasons. That leaves me with extra vacation time at home, and I would love to share that time with your pets! I am very detail-oriented, so I will make sure I follow instructions and schedules accurately. I respect the privacy of homeowners, and will gladly communicate with the client as much as desired.
“This was our first time using Rover, and Emma made us feel at ease with our meet and greet, and overall process. She was reliable, our dogs seemed to love her, and she was very communicative. We will definitely try and book her again in the future. Thank you, Emma!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and animals hold a special place in my heart . I’m currently a Pre-Veterinary student at the University of Central Missouri, and for the past five years, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant at Pleasant Hill Animal Clinic, where my dad is a veterinarian. I’ve also been pet sitting for the past two years, caring for pets of all ages—from playful 10-month-old to sweet 12-year-old seniors. I have experience administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic dogs, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I truly consider the dogs I care for as part of my extended family, and I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend and give them the same love and attention I’d give my own. I currently work part-time as a veterinary assistant, and I’m typically available every day except Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. On those days, I occasionally have morning or afternoon availability, and I’m always available after 6 PM. I offer in-home care, boarding, and drop-in visits. Even on my busiest days, I always have a lunch break, so I’m never away from pets in my care for more than six hours at a time. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority, and I strive to provide dependable, loving care at all times. I have a fully fenced yard and one friendly Great Dane who can be easily kenneled or separated as needed. My home also features a dedicated, dog-proofed room that’s perfect for free roaming and playtime. Whether your pup prefers quiet relaxation or active engagement, I’m able to provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to their needs.
About: I have had experience with cats my whole life, dogs about half. I own two cats and have had them since I was born, but I have had friends and family with dogs along the years. I pet sit often for my Uncle and Aunt for their three dogs, and other family members for their dogs and or cats. I have plenty experience walking dogs, taking them outside, cleaning up after both animals (litter boxes or not), as well as both playing and feeding them! I am currently working part time, so I will have a decent amount of time to care for your pets! My timeframe does vary, but I am very punctual and flexible with my times. I am unavailable most every Sunday, but I will always let you know what works best for me so I can help you out! I love getting to know their personalities and sitting or playing with them, no matter how mellow or how excited! It is very important to me that I learn their boundaries and behaviors so I can give them my best care, like offering my hands out for them to smell or standing or sitting a certain distance away from them until they are comfortable with me.
“Katy was exceptional with our anxious boys. It's such a relief to know we have a fantastic person to watch our dogs and house! The pics showed they were happy and having a blast. It means the world to us to know they are in such great hands with Katy. Thank you so very much!!!”
“Alexandria did a great job when we went out of town. I have huge protective dogs and they took to her beautifully. She had the skill to know what they were thinking and manage it. She sent me tons of photos and asked questions when needed. I came home to happy, healthy pups. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”
About: Medical & Special-Needs Care I'm comfortable administering various types of medical care including oral medications, injections (such as insulin), and managing senior, recovering, or anxious pets. I understand the importance of careful observation, consistent routines, and timely communication with homeowners about any concerns. Training & Behavior With experience in dog and puppy training, I provide consistent reinforcement of commands, boundaries, and leash manners. I respect the training methods you've established and maintain the structure your pets need. Farm & Livestock Care I have hands-on experience caring for chickens, goats, and similar farm animals, including daily feeding, cleaning, and barn routines. I'm well-suited for rural properties or mixed residential/farm settings where animals require knowledgeable, capable care. Hi! I'm Chip - a U.S. military veteran and senior remote professional who works from home full-time. That means consistent companionship for your pets and a safely occupied, well cared-for home. My style is calm, structured, and detail-oriented: I follow your routine closely and I communicate clearly. I'm not house sitting for vacation or social purposes. I'm a dedicated professional seeking a quiet, well-maintained home where I can work productively while providing excellent care to your pets and property. What sets me apart is being the "adult in the room" — someone who respects routines, follows instructions carefully, and treats your home with the same care I'd give my own. What homeowners appreciate: • Military veteran background with ingrained sense of responsibility • Quiet, structured lifestyle with no parties or guests • Detail-oriented with careful attention to your specific instructions • Security-minded approach to home protection • Mature judgment and calm demeanor

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,302 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Baldwin Park. 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 Baldwin Park 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 Baldwin Park 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 Baldwin Park 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.
