About: I’ve been a dog person for as long as I can remember. We got our first pup when I was 5, and I’ve been obsessed ever since. I’m always the person who finds the dog first at someone’s house, and my camera roll is probably 90% pictures of animals. I’ve lived with dogs for about 30 years and have been around all kinds of personalities, from high-energy pups to sleepy seniors. I’m especially comfortable caring for multiple pets at once and making sure each one gets the attention, routine, and care they need. I’m comfortable following your pets’ normal routines at home, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, enrichment, basic commands, and training. I’ve worked with professionally trained dogs and am familiar with e-collars and other owner-provided training tools when those are already part of your dog’s routine. I’m a remote designer and small business owner, so my schedule is very flexible and I can spend a lot of time with your pets while you’re away. I’m also naturally tidy and respectful of other people’s homes, and I’ll treat your house like it’s my own. Whether you have one pup or a whole little crew, my goal is for everyone to feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re gone, and for you to be able to relax knowing your pets and home are in good hands. I work remotely and run my own small business, so my schedule is super flexible. I can work around your pet’s normal routine and I’m around a lot during the day. Walks, meals, potty breaks, playtime, or just hanging out while I work all fit pretty naturally into my day. I try to keep things as normal as possible for your pets while you’re gone. I’ll follow their usual routine, feeding schedule, house rules, and anything else you normally do with them. I’m also really respectful of people’s homes and always want you to feel comfortable knowing both your pets and your home are being taken care of.

About: A natural born caretaker, I’ve taken care of Dogs, cats, birds and kids most of my life. I was also a full time Realtor for 10 years so I’m familiar with navigating households in a professional manner. I live a sober, simple, happy life and if we seem to be a good fit, I would love to help care for your pets and your home as if they were my own. 🙏💕✌️ My availability is open right now. I am new to the area but have my own transportation so I’m more than willing to travel when and where needed. I would care for pets in YOUR home. I am confident in my abilities to both pet and house sit as I was a housekeeper/mom for 25 years, a realtor for 9, and business owner so I’m very respectful of others and their homes. I have been a pet owner most of my life. Also did pet sit regularly for my moms 2 dogs for past year and LOVED it 🥰. I very naturally keep a neat home, follow a schedule and tend to others needs easily.

Charles took our booking last minute as we had exhausted our options for care for our older reactive pup, he knew what he was doing when it came to the meeting and knew how to handle Avi, Avi loved Charles, and Charles paid close attention to our little needy situation with Avi and executed everything perfectly, will definately book again as im afraid Avi will wonder what happened to his new friend 😁

I was lucky to find Alexis and Adam to take care of my Malinois. I’d never used Rover before but I needed someone to care for her, walk her and stay with her while I was out of town. They sent me a lot of updates and pictures and I knew she was happy. I’ll definitely use them in the future :)

Stella went above and beyond when caring for our pups. We were very nervous about leaving our dogs for an extended period but Stella eliminated all worries immediately and exceeded expectations. It is obvious that Stella genuinely cares for and loves animals, from the way she talks about her own dog to the way she consistently showed up for our dogs. In addition to the day to day routine, Stella took our dogs to the beach, bathed them, and left the house in immaculate condition. She is a fabulous communicator, sending photos and updates daily as well as letting us know if she had any questions or concerns which we really appreciated. Coming home to a clean house and happy pups is a great feeling! I would recommend Stella to all and look forward to booking with her in the future (I know my dogs do too)!

About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 14 years. Friends, neighbors, family, friends of friends, I’ve spent 20+ weekends a year house/pet sitting, and have averaged 3 dog walks a week for the last 3 years. I also have my Dog, Cat, and Pet First Aid Certificate as well as my Pet CPR Training Certificate from American Red Cross. Right now, I’m taking online courses for my profession. In between classes I would like to take breaks by taking care of animals. It’s both a stress reliever and something I love to do. I keep an eye out for any safety concerns or measures that need to take place to ensure the safety of your animals. Safety is key!

About: I’ve spent my whole life around pets, caring for them with love and dedication. After my own dog, Techa, passed away, I realized I still have so much love to give, even if I’m not quite ready to adopt again. That became part of my own journey with pets, and it’s why I opened my home to welcome and care for other families’ dogs. I don’t just stay home with them, I take them out, observe them closely, and tune into what they need and what makes them feel happy and safe. I have a natural intuition with dogs and pay close attention to their behavior and energy so they feel understood and comfortable. I also love sending lots of photos and videos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away, just like I would want for my own dog. . Be prepared for some cute photo bombing! Because I work remotely, your dog will have constant companionship, care, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m available for weekends and extended stays, and I always send daily photo and video updates for peace of mind. I have a fenced yard with a small garden, and there are no other animals in the house, so your pet will receive my full attention. I believe animals need daily outings to stay healthy and happy, so I offer at least two walks a day, either short or long depending on their needs. Playtime and affection are also essential parts of my care routine. If I care for your pet at their home, I make sure to follow their regular routine, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also send daily photos and videos to owners so they can relax knowing their furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for

FAQs for House Sitting - Boulder Oaks

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Boulder Oaks on Rover is $24.42 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 2,811 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Boulder Oaks. 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 Boulder Oaks 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 Boulder Oaks 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 Boulder Oaks 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 Boulder Oaks. On Rover:

  • 92% 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.
