“Sarah did a great job watching our two cattle dogs. She was very communicative and left our house better than we left it! She took them on great adventures and sent us some awesome pictures. Highly recommend her!”
“Summer was fantastic and filled a super last minute request! My husband and I were at the hospital so Summer was able to accommodate for us! Griffey seemed so happy when we got home and would recommend to anyone for house/pup sitting.”
“Sarah did an excellent job with Soli over three days while we were in the backcountry. She even cleaned up an accident Soli had in the house. Thank you Sarah. We’d love to have you take care of Soli again.”
About: Pet care experience What sets me apart? My deep understanding and experience with dogs, especially thanks to my 16 1/2 year old TruMan who passed away 2 years ago I have a lot experience with seniors and understanding their needs and can administer medications. I am a dog mom to 3 dachshunds Forester , Baxter & Whitney . I have 30 years experience with taking care of dogs of my own and for friends. I offer a nurturing, personalized approach to pet care, focusing on: - Puppy Training 🦮: I can help with basic commands and socialization. - Tailored Attention: I treat each pet as if they were my own, with customized care routines and plenty of love to keep them happy and comfortable. - Active Playtime I am a runner ( ultra marathon runner) and my dogs run with me as well . I have tons of energy and I love exercising dogs by walking running or a good game of fetch , your pets will enjoy engaging activities and exercise with me . Or if they are older and not active I’m good a giving doggie massages and pets . Your furry friends will receive not just care, but a warm, loving environment where their needs and personalities are truly understood. I’m a stay at home dog mom , so I have a flexible schedule. I run 7 days a week training for my ultra marathon races. I typically run with my dogs in the morning and do my long runs after . I am super flexible so I can work around the schedule of your pets needs . Let me know what special needs your doggy may have and we will take care of everything. Making your furry family member comfortable is important to me! Also Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. For example, scares of other dogs, and what he/she likes or not. I can take your dog on long walks along the canal and to the dog park to play.
About: I've been helping take care of friends' dogs, cats, hamsters, and bunnies since I was a kid. Lately, I've been a go-to for many friends in the eastern Sierra area and have been really enjoying loving their floofs! I'm currently working from home full time so my schedule can be very flexible, but I also have the ability to get up early or drive later in the evening if necessary or requested by any of the people I am working for. In my clients home, I like to ensure that the animals being cared for have enough food, water, access to a liter box and play time. I think taking care of an animal does not just include making sure all the basic necessitates are covered, but also ensuring that they feel loved and have time to get their energy out in a healthy way (walking, ball throwing, etc) while their owner is away.
“Mel responded quickly to my last minute request and was very good with our shy pup. He doesn't usually approach strangers, and I saw him go up to her 3x in the first 15 minutes she arrived so I could tell he would be comfortable with her. Thank you, Mel!”
“We were very happy with Tanya! She kept us updated with lots of pictures, which we love. She took the pups to do their favorite things and gave the kitties plenty of loving! The house looked great and the babies were happy upon returning home. We will definitely be booking with her again 🙂”
“Liz was great with our dog and easy to communicate with. She asked great questions about our dog and our routine and kept us updated with pictures and texts. Highly recommend!”

Sarah was fantastic with our dog, Brody, and super flexible with our schedule. She was genuinely invested in making sure he was well taken care of, adjusted her schedule for what was best for us and Brody, and really made us feel like he was in good hands! Also sent a ton of pictures and great communication! Would absolutely recommend and will use Sarah again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bishop on Rover is $38.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 15 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bishop. 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 Bishop 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 Bishop 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 Bishop 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
