I have never felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies behind. Dakota made sure that they were well cared for and comfortable. She kept me updated and worked hard to make the transition as easy as possible. Highly recommend!

Everything you want from a rover dog sitter! She took amazing care of not only my pets, but also my house. She did a flawless job of communicating, sending updates, and taking care of my pups. We had to come home early from our trip and she was very understanding and kind. Couldn’t be more appreciative of her!

Julia was great and very professional. Both of our GSD’s took to her immediately. She continuously sends updates which was very reassuring. I am grateful that we found her. We can now take more vacations and know that they will be in safe hands.

About: Hi! I’m Grace, a recent graduate living at home before going to a post-grad program in the fall! I absolutely love all dogs and have had them my entire life, training two of them since they were puppies, and I even brought one with me to college! I’m flexible and happy to help in any way needed! Thank you so much for considering leaving your pups with me, they will be in wonderful care!! As I am a recent graduate, I do not have any other responsibilities than your pups! I’m flexible in this way and can rearrange my schedule in any way needed. I prefer to care for your pups in your own home, so that they can feel comfortable in their own environment. In terms of drop-ins and walks, I will always make sure to work with you to schedule a time where the weather (heat especially) is safe for your dog.

About: I have grown up with pets all my life, from cats and a dog, to a lizard! I have experience with pets with medical conditions (medications + some special care), from my own pets, and pet sitting for others. I have been pet sitting for my neighbor’s 2 young corgis for the past 2 years, as well as another neighbor’s 2 cats here and there as needed. I treat everyone’s pets as if they’re my own, and give them ample amounts of love and play time. My family currently has a senior dog (springer spaniel) and older 2 cats, with 2 of them being on daily medications, so I truly know the importance of a routine and how to convince them to take a pill! I am open to care for any animal that comes my way, but I definitely have a soft spot for kitties :). I am currently free most days, so I have plenty of time to fit in your pet(s)! I also have my own car, so I’ll always have a reliable means of transportation to and from your home. I care for other’s pets as if they’re my own. I start out slow and cautious to learn the pet’s behaviors and boundaries, and then venture into different types of play and experiences. Just let me know what your pet needs, and I will happily oblige!

About: I previously worked with an animal sanctuary training dogs, and have fostered dogs for over 5 years. I absolutely love animals and would love to help anyone I can!!😊😊 I work part time, with lots of flexibility to play with your pets! I do not currently do boarding as I do not live alone, but am available for overnight stays, stop-in’s, or even just a quick walk! While I do not offer boarding, I take all animals as seriously as my own and can guarantee nothing but safety and the best care.

About: I’ve had the wonderful privilege of caring for animals over many years. My experience has not been related to a professional, service-based company, but instead was gained through personal care of my own pets, as well as the pets of friends/family. I have lovingly cared for puppies/dogs, kittens/cats, rabbits, and a ferret. I am confident in the knowledge I have gained, and I am always open and eager to learn more. Caring for animals has brought tremendous joy to my life and sunshine to my days. I am currently unable to have pets in my home due to both allergy and sensory issues of family members. For me, the next best thing was to pivot and find that same joy providing dependable, loving, pet-care services for others! I'm truly grateful for this opportunity. I look forward to developing great, working relationships with individuals/families, while treating their pets with all the attention, love and care that I would give my own. I look forward to all the walks, cuddles and playtime! I have lots of love to give!

Allison was amazing with our pittie mix rescue who was a stray for 2 years and can be anxious and skittish. She immediately loved Allison (more so than she even loves us, I was joking with my husband) and even went to sleep while Allison was watching her which is unheard of for our dog. Highly recommend, Allison is truly a dog whisperer!

About: Hi there! I’m someone who truly believes dogs make life better. I’ve had dogs in my life for 25 years, and while my own two pups are with me part time, my house feels so much fuller—and happier—when they’re around. That’s why I’m excited to open my home and my time to care for your dog as if they were my own. I’m recently divorced and building a new chapter for myself, one that centers around doing what I love: spending time with dogs. I work from home, which means I’m able to give pets lots of attention throughout the day—walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just good company when they want to relax. I have extensive experience with large dogs, but I’m comfortable with pups of all sizes and personalities. I pride myself on being highly attentive, reliable, and communicative—I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. If you’re looking for someone caring, responsible, and genuinely dog-loving, I’d be honored to be that person for you and your pet. I am an early riser who works from home so meeting the needs of your pet will be an easy addition to my current routine. I have a fully fenced back yard and a finished basement that allows plenty of space inside and out for your pet to explore, play and feel safe. I have a large dog crate if that is your preference but my dogs sleep on the couches.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old!! I love all animals honestly. I’ve walked dogs, cleaned litter boxes. I’ve also bathed pets. Also cuddles are a must! Also play time is important! I would love to pet sit anytime! Pet care would be during the week in the evenings. The weekends I’m free to anything! I can do overnight stays on the weekends, I can walk, feed, and bathe pets. Depending on which service I’m doing, I do have a yard which your dog can play in. I also can bathe pets and feed them, and if you have a cat I can clean litter boxes and play and brush them!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats in home settings. I’ve watched dogs for multiple days, including both weekdays and weekends, handling feeding, walks, and maintaining their normal routine. Occasionally watched over more than one dog at a time. I also have experience with watching cats and ensuring they are taken care of multiple days at a time. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of both your home and your pet’s routine. Since I work full-time during the day, I’m best suited for pets that are comfortable being alone during work hours and thrive with consistent morning, evening, and overnight care. My goal is to keep your pets safe, relaxed, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I work full-time during the day, so I focus on providing reliable morning, evening, and overnight care. My mornings and evenings are structured and consistent, which allows me to stick closely to your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and attention. On weekends, I have much more flexibility and can spend additional time with your pets while maintaining their schedule. I keep my calendar organized and only take on a limited number of clients to ensure each pet receives dependable, consistent care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping everything as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, and care instructions carefully to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. I provide morning and evening care, along with overnight presence when booked for house sitting. I also make sure your home is respected and kept clean while you’re away. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

We are very pleased with the care Alexis gave our dog and our home. We were away for two weeks and during that time she communicated with us several times (which we managed with a 6 hour time difference!) including photos of our dog. She followed our directions to a T regarding our pet and our house. We returned to a tidy home and happy dog. Knowing he was comfortable, cared for, and stress free in our home added that extra bit of ease to our vacation. We highly recommend Alexis for petsitting and hope to hire her again in the future.

My dogs were will taken care of! She kept me in the loop and sent me pictures regularly which put my mind at ease. It's middle of summer and super hot: but despite the weather and the fenced in yard and doggy door, Briana still took them on walks most days which Lulu loved! She gave Lulu her medicine regularly and most importantly spent time cuddling them and giving them the love they need while I was gone. The house was neater than when I left. I really appreciate everything she did.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bel Air

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Bel Air on Rover is $60.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,639 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bel Air. 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 Bel Air 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 Bel Air 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 Bel Air 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bel Air. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
