“Ali was great to meet and so sweet with my dogs right away. She got down to their level and stayed kind and patient, even when one of them kept barking at her now and then. They both warmed up to her so quickly, which says a lot! She asked thoughtful questions that made me feel like she really understood their needs and genuinely cared about them. On the day of the sit, she was very communicative about her arrival and departure times, which I really appreciated. She also sent lots of photos and videos throughout the day which I appreciated as someone who tends to always worry!”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur baby. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also enjoy keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages for extra peace of mind! My schedule allows me to provide pet care on Wednesdays and weekends, when I have plenty of free time to give pets my attention and care. I work Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays until 6 PM, so I’m also available for evening visits and walks on those days. I’m organized, reliable, and happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their pets’ needs. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow their usual feeding schedule, provide fresh water, take them on walks, and make time for play, cuddles, and attention. I respect each pet's routine and personality, keep their space clean.

About: I adopted a dog when I was 8, a pomeranian, took care of it and raised it since he was 1 month old. Now I don't have access to him since we moved out, someone else adopted him because we didn't have the ability to keep him. Them adopted other two puppies, huskies, the same story happened as we tend to move a lot. 1 year ago I adopted a frenchie and currently raising it, on a healthy 24 pounds and very active and energic, trying to work on his hyperactivity so I won't be able to take him with me if requested. I'm a Uber driver, so I would always be able to attend any reservations outside of this times: ●Monday to Friday 11:30am - 2:30 pm, 5:30pm - 6:30 pm. ●Weekends negotiable, standard would be 11 am to 3 pm. I feed mine twice a day, depending on activity of the day I might rise the amount he eats just a little to make up for it. Then daily training of 10- 30 minutes with split treats to not over feed.

About: Hello! My name is Dylan and I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I’ve been around animals my whole life, such as tortoises, rabbits, and goats, but the majority of my experience is with dogs and cats. I have experience working with senior dogs, dogs with rear wheelchairs, brachycephalic dog breeds, and nursing cats, as well as administering topical and oral medications and bottle feeding. I’ve worked with dogs from 6lbs to 110lbs! Additionally, I am Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. Leaving a pet with someone new can be stressful for you and your pet, so I do my best to make both of you feel comfortable by sending daily photos and creating accommodations for your pet. I work Monday through Wednesday, so I typically only board dogs during weekends, but I board cats Monday through Sunday. During weekends, I can take dogs out as often as they need, whether that be twice or five times—whatever meets your pet's needs! I have experience with both visiting clients and boarding pets in my own home. Every pet is different, so specialized care is my priority, along with respecting your property. In my own home, I allow pets on furniture and the bed to maximize their comfort. Most pets love my bean bag chair! When I am pet-sitting in your home, I have a "leave-no-trace" policy and try to leave it cleaner than when I arrived if applicable!

“Allen was great! Our rottweiler is usually timid with new guests at first but he loved Allen instantly. Our other puppy also grew to love him and we would love to have him sit again in the future! He made our weekend away so peaceful knowing our pups were in great care. He sent pics and video updates as well. Couldn't be happier!”

Sent us photo updates with how our dog was doing, and even went above and beyond by cleaning the sheets and towels so we got home to an already clean bed after a long day of travel. Definitely recommend”

About: Im a life long pet owner with experience sitting all sorts of animals. Ive taken care of the smallest puppies to giant breed dogs as well as indoor and outdoor cats. I have fostered future service dog puppies, guinea pigs and rabbits too! I know when owners leave the house it can be stressful for the animals, thats why I stay at the owners house so the animals have the least amount of change possible. I love animals and am so excited to work with your pets! I am a college student who takes most of my classes online. This makes my schedule pretty flexible and only requires me to go to school two days a week. This allows me to be with your pets for the remainder of the time and give them all the love and care they need! I am available all major holidays but book up fast! I'll take care of your pets in your home. I know that leaving home can be stressful for both you and your pet that why I aim to keep your pets schedule the same as much as I possibly can. I will also update you about how your pet is doing a couple times a week so you know your pet is getting the best possible care!

About: Hello! My name is Layla and I am currently a full-time college student with extra time on my hands, my schedule can be extremely flexible on the days that I am available. I feel being a pet sitter suits me because a. I love animals, b. I’m very attentive and organized, and c. Earning a wage by hanging out/taking care of your fur babies sounds like a dream! I currently have two big dogs and one cat that I care for almost every day. I take the dogs for walks, play fetch with them, and take them out to go potty. I love spoiling my cat with new stimulating toys, cat trees, and lots of cuddles 🥰 I’m currently a full-time student with some spare time, a part-time job seems too much for me to handle while also engaging in school. I adore animals and it would be amazing to earn money while spending time and caring for them 🥲 A list offered of how you want me to care for your pet is preferred. I understand pets can have different quirks and I’m totally adaptable to anything that’s thrown at me. I love animals and their unique personalities! I’d like to follow your routine to care for your animal, just like you never left!

About: I’ve been loving and caring for cats and dogs for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors always rely on me to drop in, feed, and play with their pets while they're away. I have plenty of experience with all ages, from tiny puppies and kittens to sweet seniors. I love keeping pets active with fun enrichment games and can even help teach them new tricks!

Since I work a steady 9-5 schedule during the week, your pet will enjoy a wonderful, predictable routine! We kick off our days with an energetic morning walk so they can completely relax, and I love setting them up with fun puzzle toys to keep their minds active. As soon as I'm off the clock, my full attention shifts right back to them for dinner, an evening walk, and plenty of couch cuddles.When the weekend hits, I am completely free! This is when we dive into longer adventures, extra-long walks, and much more enriching activities to really spoil your furry friend. It’s a loving, consistent rhythm that keeps pets feeling safe, happy, and right at home! When I’m staying at or visiting your home, I stick closely to your pet's normal routine to keep them happy and stress-free.

About: For over a decade I have honed my knowledge of how to care for cats and dogs in both a volunteer and professional job setting as a Kennel Attendant. Now I wish to use those skills to make sure your pets are pampered and healthy whike life takes you elsewhere! Its important for animals to stick to a routine so I make sure food, water, enrichment, and exercise are given everyday! During summer and winter holidays i'll be available full time. During spring and summer semester I'll have classes in the afternoon but excluding those few hours a day and making sure my own animals are cared for I should be available to make your animals the priority! Household rules differ so Id love to receive instructions on what you specifically want and need for me to prioritize! By default.I will feed and water your animals, provide company and enrichment, allow regular acess to restroom areas and provide at least two walks a day though I am welcome for requests for more!

About: I absolutely love bonding with animals and am eager to care for any furry friends! In my dog-sitting experience, I make sure dogs are fed their food and water consistently to keep them active during fun walks. From my experience dog-sitting my relative’s dog, I am reliable, flexible, and observant. Your pup’s happiness, safety, and well-being are my top priorities! I’m currently a full time college student, booked mainly Mondays-Thursdays. I am ideally free on the weekends, but I am also flexible with Monday and Wednesday availabilities. When caring for dogs, I follow a list of tasks or special requests assigned to me. If I have any questions regarding, I will be sure to effectively communicate and ask. If it’s a service where I am watching the dog and told to take care of its basic needs, I will take care of them according to their schedules (when they eat, need to walk, etc.) I will be following a similar format when caring for cats.

Jenn took EXCELLENT care of our girls while we were away on vacation! One of our girls has chronic kidney disease and Jenn administered her medication correctly and consistently. Additionally, Jenn followed all instructions for our girl's kidney-friendly diet. Both girls were walked consistently and well taken care of. They're obsessed with Jenn and get excited every time they see her!

Can we do 6 stars? Denger was an absolute dream and took such amazing care of our fur babies while we were gone. I actually think our pups were disappointed when we came home that Denger wasn’t going to be staying! The puppies absolutely have a new best friend in Denger. They sent multiple pictures each day, fun updates throughout the day as well which made us feel so at ease. If and when they had questions, they didn’t hesitate to ask either. When Denger came over for yhe meet-and-greet I knew right away that we were leaving our puppies safe hands: they had a clipboard with multiples pages worth of questions and notes to make sure all bases were covered. We can’t wait to have Denger come and stay with us again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Bellflower

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Bellflower is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $66 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 14,915 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bellflower. 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 Bellflower 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 Bellflower 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 Bellflower 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.
