Letitia did a wonderful job sitting for my two dogs Kelso and Max. She was very attentive to their needs and gave me regular updates. She was excellent at communication. One of my dogs is elderly It takes medication and she made sure he was well taken care of. I would absolutely work with her again. Leticia was a fantastic sitter!

Jaxon was great with my dogs and they loved her very much. She was able to stay with them during 4th of July so they weren’t scared of the fireworks. She was very helpful and maintained communication with me at all times

I also am able to water plants and any other house care duties needed while you are away on vacation. I have experience with giving pets medication and pets with special needs. I love all animals big and small. I am available in Wrightwood, Pinon Hills and Phelan. I am very reliable and can provide a reference if needed.

If I could leave 10 stars for Amirah, I would! She communicates very quickly, her personality is so incredibly sweet and helpful, her voice is pure puppy love!! even though we booked last minute because the other person fell through Amirah was ready and so easy to work with. She put us at ease just a few days before our trip. She did a meet and greet was very flexible with the schedule. She offered additional perks, brought doggy snacks, and toys. Sent me pictures and videos and just went above and beyond. I told my friend about her service and without even vetting her , wants to use her for our next trip ! thank you so much Amirah you made it possible for us to relax and not worry about the dogs. I got to enjoy myself because I could see how happily the dogs followed you out for walks. Normally we have to beg and plead for them to go outside for a walk, but we could see they followed with tails wagging. Till we meet again! Do not hesitate, and if you’re on the fence and want additional feedback about Amirah please reach out

Mariah did an outstanding job house sitting for me for my puppy Doberman that can be a handful to most people. Her attentiveness and care towards my dog was like if it was her own. Followed all instructions provided well and an excellent timely communicator. Will definitely book her again in the future should I need the services. Extremely satisfied with the overall experience!!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for years through my own pets and fostering experience. I have two 9-year-old dogs that I’ve raised since they were puppies, so I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks and playtime to maintaining routines and recognizing when a pet needs extra attention. I also live in a home that fosters cats of all ages, giving me hands-on experience caring for kittens, adult cats, and those with different personalities and needs. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they feel comfortable and cared for like family. I work remotely during the week, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or overnight care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment and take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and needs. I follow all care instructions closely and ensure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel safe and at home while you’re away.

About: I’ve lived with several types of dogs for all my whole life. Multiply at the same time from family members to mine and I have learned how different breeds have different personalities and how even when they’re different they all just need patience and love and space to grow. making sure that they are paid correctly fed correctly to healthy owner wants it to be. I’ve pet it for many of my family members and have always taken care of my dogs so I know with puppies sometimes you have to help potty train and teach trick tricks as well as as for senior animals or dogs you need to be very specific where they sleep how they’re bathe how they are overall taking care of as well if they need any pills to be incorporated with their food. As well as their meals need to be made special that can be arranged. Like many college students most of my time is usually at home studying or the library so my schedule is very flexible, whether you need me to go to you’re home at at any time with enough time in advance. I have a fenced house so the animal can’t get out and then a small wooden fence that is if the dog wants to be separated from my other dogs but I’m much more comfortable making sure the pet is in their own home due to my dogs because they aren’t friendly with others pets

About: I grew up with bunnies, chickens, and dogs! When my neighbors would go on vacation they'd always ask me to take care of their pets even as a child. I love hanging out with animals, their energy is my favorite and I love to cuddle with them. I wanted to learn more about horses so I volunteered to muck stalls just for a chance to learn how people care for them, that's the type of person I am. I also worked as a CNA for a number of years in the medical field so I feel comfortable administering medicines as directed and staying on top of puppy care, elderly care or just general medical dog care as directed. I'm currently looking for work so I'm flexible and free to stay with pets all day and overnight if you are comfortable with that. Whatever you are comfortable with. I know how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pet. I'll respect your home and follow instructions carefully and try to keep to your pets routines so that they don't feel stress from a different person being with them.I'm attentive with walks and always ensure that gates are closed. If you like to receive regular photo updates I can send them as well to show how your pet is doing.

About: I’ve worked with pets of all kinds for more than 20 years. I’ve worked with cats, dogs, birds, fish, lizards, snakes, gerbils, hamsters, rabbits, toads, hermit crabs, and snails. I do charge slightly more for snails because while slow, they are slippery little suckers. I am very organized. I focus on having a routine for the animals because they need it and appreciate it. I know most animals appreciate predictability and attention. I only go to a client’s home. I would rather see the pet on their turf and follow their rules as opposed to taking them out of their safety zone.

FAQs for House Sitting - Big Pines

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 2,119 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Big Pines. 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 Big Pines 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 Big Pines 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 Big Pines 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 Big Pines. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
