“I can't sing enough praises for Dana, who stayed looked after our home and pets or a whole month while we were out of the country. Throughout our time away, Dana kept us updated with the perfect balance of messages, and let me tell you, her updates were more than just routine check-ins. They were filled with anecdotes and little details that showed she truly got to know our pets. Her fun responses made it clear that she was spending quality time with them, making sure they felt loved and cared for in our absence. But it wasn't just our pets Dana took care of; she treated our home with the same love and respect. Coming back to a house that was not only well taken care of but also perfectly clean was amazing! It was evident that Dana went above and beyond to ensure everything was just right. Finding someone you trust to look after your furry family members is no easy feat, but with Dana, we hit the jackpot. Knowing that she's there to take care of our pets gives us such peace of mind when we're away. If you're searching for a pet sitter who will treat your animals like family, look no further than Dana – we couldn't have asked for anyone better!”
“Karli was great! From the time we met her and throughout the sitting she made us feel at ease that our babies were in good hands. Thank you so much Karli! We will be rebooking with Karli next time!”
“Laurie was amazing! She was very accommodating and sent photos of my fur babies while she watched them on my wedding day. She took them for walks and was very patient with them all. She was a real life saver and I would recommend her to any one in need of an amazing dog sitter. 🩷🐶”
“Kristen was everything we could have hoped for and more for our fur pups while we were away. I am always nervous leaving them but she had the best communication sending videos and pictures with updates. I could tell that they were happy and well cared for. We came home to a very clean house and pups and we will definitely be asking for Kristen again. Thank you for the best time for us all during our vacation. :)”
“Samantha was amazing. Only thing I would change would be how I prepared the house for her. She did exactly what I asked to take care of my baby Nipsey and I had zero worries coming back to my home after a business trip.”
“We had a last minute cancelation for a dog sitter. Holly was able to house and dog sit with short notice while we were out of the country. Our fur-babies were well taken care of. Will use Holly again!”
“Nicolas did a great job with our 60lb German shepherd mix while we were gone over the weekend. He got lots of walks, treats, and attention -- his 3 favorite things. Will definitely be keeping Nicolas on the roster for future trips!”
“Belinda is one of the most incredible dog sitters EVER! She communicated effectively, followed every instruction on caring for our two little puppies, and ensured that they were loved and well cared for during my wife’s and I family vacation! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable professional dog sitter.”
“This is our second time booking with Yajahyra and we are very happy, again! We feel very comfortable leaving our two dogs with her, she sends photo updates and lets us know how things are going. Definitely continue to recommend her!”
“Michele and David were great! We booked them pretty last minute and they were willing to stay the weekend with our Lux and Link! Luxy was/is stuck in a cone right now and needed medication administered as well. They were patient with the unique needs Lux has right now and kept us updated throughout the stay. Thanks for taking care of our fur babies!”
“Our animals had a great time with Maji! She is very responsive and took excellent care of our pets. Maji was great about sending photos and keeping us updated while we were away. She followed all of the instructions we left for her and was very clean and respectful of our space. She even knitted cute little coasters for us to come home to :) We will definitely use Maji again and highly recommend you use her!”
“I can’t recommend Yahaira enough! She is honestly so sweet and treated my puppy, Souei, like one of her own babies. On top of that, she’s an amazing trainer and gave me some awesome peace of mind while I was away. I’m so glad I found her. will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I've had dogs and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I'm retired now, and I have all the time in the world to hang out with yours! I'm retired, with nothing to distract me from taking care of your pet. I have a nice yard to entertain your dog during the day, or I can come over and hang out with your pet. Either way, I'm your guy! I have a fenced yard and all the time in the world to hang out with or entertain your pet at my house or yours.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover who understands that pets are family members, not just animals. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, an energy-burning walk, or extra attention while you’re away, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have been around dogs my whole life, all ages and love all from the young energetic puppies to the elderly who may need medicine and extra attention. What sets me apart is communication and consistency. I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed summaries so you always know how your pet is doing. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routines, and preferences because every pet is different. I’m currently working a part time flexible schedule so pet care fits in at all times! Let me know when you need the help! I do not currently have any pets at home so your puppy will have the most attention! I am very respectful of your home’s boundaries.
“We were very happy with Noemy, the cats are not used to us not being here and she actually sent pictures of them and they did not hide the entire time (this is huge!!!!!) Will definitely be a repeat customer”
“Isabel communicated well and arrived on time despite having car trouble. I appreciated that, plus she got the mail and took Angel for good walks. Already booked her to come back again!”
“Camryn did a great job caring for our weim & house sitting while we were away! She was super flexible when our return flight was delayed, sent us pictures, and was patient with our dog’s early morning wake-up. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Michael was our first rover experience, and was able to watch our 9yo Husky and 8mo golden retriever on short notice. Michael came ahead of time to meet the dogs and learn our routine, and then communicated when he’d be at the house, sent lots of pictures, and spent plenty of time with the dogs. Really appreciate how easy this was, when we would otherwise have to board our dogs, coordinate pick up times, etc. Will definitely use Michael again!”
“Have hired Laurel two times now and will continue to rebook with her! She does great with both of my cats, one of them being diabetic. Super sweet and quick to respond/communicative. Would recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bonsall
There aren't enough words to describe Victoria's level of care, commitment and compassion for animals! Victoria took excellent care of our dogs while we went away for a special occasion. One of our dogs has complex medical needs and required emergency medical care while we were away- a nightmare for any pet owner! Victoria was on top of it, communicating quickly and always responsive. I worried less knowing our fur babies were in good hands. She also went above and beyond to befriend both dogs and our typically fearful dogs both love and trust her thanks to her patience and amazing level of care. We truly can't thank her enough! Anyone would be lucky to have Victoria care for their animals
Victoria was amazing with my large crew! It was my first time leaving them with someone who wasn’t family and I was concerned with how they would react to someone new in their space, but she quickly won them all over - even my grumpy old Rottweiler and the anti-social cat! Thank you so much for taking such great care of them! ❤️
Victoria is truly the most amazing dog sitter we could have asked for. She took exceptional care of our five dogs, including our Great Dane, and it was immediately clear how knowledgeable, confident and loving she is with dogs of all sizes. The entire time we were away, we felt completely at ease knowing our pups were in such capable and compassionate hands. When we arrived home, Victoria went above and beyond in the most thoughtful of ways- she surprised us with homemade cookies and salt dough paw prints of each of our dogs. It was such a heartfelt, unforgettable gesture! We cannot recommend Victoria highly enough! She is trustworthy, kind, attentive and truly special. Any pet family would be incredibly lucky to have her care for their pets!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bonsall on Rover is $44.4 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 5,753 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bonsall. 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 Bonsall 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 Bonsall 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 Bonsall 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 Bonsall. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
