“Averie did a great job pet setting for our 18 year old dog Remy. She provided a calm, nurturing presence for him that made him feel comfortable. I would highly recommended Averie for house sitting/pet sitting.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I grew up on a farm and we had a wide range of animals. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart and are my happy place when I’m down. I have experience with every size dog and am comfortable with puppies and senior dogs. I have experience with administering medications and shots. I have three small dogs of my own, one of whom is trained to smell my blood sugar, another is a survivor of trauma. The last is just a goofball. I work full time in a hospital, but only three days a week. My work days are Friday through Sunday. Monday through Thursday are completely open. I hardly ever go out except for errands, and dogs are more fun than people, so I’d rather spend time with them. My yard is not fenced, but I have plenty of time to go on walks with them and three fur babies to keep them company. I have a crate if needed, a puppy play pen from when my babies were little, and plenty of pee pads in case of accidents. Plus a big comfy bed to cuddle in.
“Adam was able to accept a last minute overnight job which was a vacation-saver. He is the best dog sitter! He took Arnie on very long walks, followed all my instructions to a tee and was communicative with texts and pictures. He will be my go-to Rover sitter from now on!”
“Carolyn is so great with my pups. They totally love her and love to just chill with her. They always get excited when she walks thru the door. Thank you for always taking such good care of them. 😊”

“Kaylah was awesome with both our cat and dog. She was very attentative and had much concern about our cat not eating the first 24 hours. But, the situation resolved with Kaylah’s attempts to make the cat comfortable with her. 😃 She is the first to follow feeding instructions and found our home very clean. She is highly recommended that I’ve already booked her for our next trip.”
“Maureen came a few days ahead of time to meet my two dogs. She is very good with large dogs like mine. The day of the dog sitting she was on time and sent me lots of photos of my dogs. She is very nice and kept in touch with me on the day she sat with my dogs. I would book with her again!”
“Abbagayle did great pet sitting for our super senior dog Remy who is almost 18. She was kind, gentle, and trustworthy. She has a gentle presentation that’s comforting for pets and Remy seemed to really like her. We have highly recommend her as a sitter for any pet.”
“Ayla did an amazing job watching my dog. She took great care of him at my house, kept me updated, and he was super happy and relaxed when I got back. You can tell she really loves animals. Highly recommend her!”
About: I've dog sat for friends for several years and had a variety of pets growing up. I'm good at following directions for a specific pet's care. I work part time remote, so I'm flexible for house sitting or drop-by services. If you happen to have a bird, I can take care of them, too! I have a parakeet who lives in a large cage inside -- he doesn't know how good he has it, LOL! I also cared for a variety of pets growing up.
“Did a great job with my fur babies. She sent me pics and updates of them. My dogs loved her and I would definitely rebook her for the next time I have a trip away. She did a great job!!”
About: I started out walking dogs in my neighborhood when I was 13, I have been dog walking/sitting since. Making sure pups have fun and are safe/taken care of is my top goal. My schedule is pretty all over the place, but I can always try to work with clients in terms of times and days i’m available! A list of allergies, scheduled meal times, and special care instructions are required, as I strive to carry the same routine you have with your pup while you’re away.
“Kevin was great with our two Great Danes. Our two giant dogs get anxious without their daddies and Kevin understood that right away. He observed their behavior and adapted his care to their personalities and needs. We highly recommend Kevin and we would definitely hire him again.”
“Malia was so great to my furbbys. She played with and spoiled them while i was gone😍. They warmed up to her real quick. Definitely recommend Malia and will be booking her again.”
“Melinda came and introduced herself and met our pups before the start of her house sitting dates and we really appreciated it! She continued to give us updates on how or dogs were doing. And our lab had an accident while she was with them in his kennel and she cleaned him up and his things, and kept an eye on him to let us know if he showed any symptoms of something more seriously wrong. Couldn't have asked for a better sitter to keep an eye on our boys while we were out. Definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs ❤️”
“Louie was an amazing sitter! My dog, Chevy, takes some time to warm up to people and is anxious. Louie was very patient with him and got him to be comfortable with him very fast! He took the time to update me and send pictures which made me feel even more at ease! He also left my house in great condition. I highly recommend Louie and will definitely be using his services again.”
“What a great lover of the Animal Kingdom with intelligence and the perfect touch to be cared and trusted taking her responsibilities as part of her life, you can’t go wrong with a person of this value”
“Cassidy is great. A true animal lover, and this was notable within the first few minutes. You wouldn’t want someone who is not. Very communicative and sent daily pictures of my fur babies. She’s highly recommended.”

Averie was perfect and accommodating and did a wonderful job with both Fiona and Buck. She spent time with both of them. We had a challenging space with construction going on and she handled it very well. We got lots of pictures and we truly believe our pets were very happy with her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Banning on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,407 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Banning. 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 Banning 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 Banning 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 Banning 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.
