“Such a relief finding Jessica! My husband and I recently moved to the Valley and have been looking to find reliable options when we go out of town to babysit our 2 cute young cats. We don’t have human babies so these are truly our babies! I immediately felt comfortable with Jessica and I could tell our girls were comfortable too. Our home was left tidy and I’m sure Mavis and Margaux appreciated having a loving sitter while we were gone. Looking forward to booking again ?”

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, and dogs have always been a central part of my home and my heart. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, so I’m comfortable handling everything from daily routines to those moments when a pup isn’t feeling their best. I take pride in making sure every dog in my care gets plenty of walks, playtime, and the kind of attention that keeps their tail wagging. Whether your dog needs a calm companion or an enthusiastic play session, I’m here for all of it and will treat them like my own. I’m retired and home all day every day, so your dog will always have someone around. I’m around morning, afternoon, and evening love having a pup by my side throughout the day. I live in a condo with access to a fenced yard, so there’s a safe spot outside for fresh air and playtime whenever your pup needs it. I have a dog of my own at home, so your dog will have a buddy to hang out with as well.

About: I've been a lifelong animal lover and currently care for my two beloved cats, Leo and Bella. They have taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each pet's unique personality. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I will treat yours with the same love and care I give my own. I am dependable, responsible, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. I currently work full-time in hospitality, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care before or after work and on my days off. I'll always communicate my availability in advance and make sure your pet receives the attention, love, and care they deserve. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions (if needed), and any special requests. I'll keep your home clean and secure and send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. As a proud cat mom to Leo and Bella, I understand how important it is to care for every pet with patience, kindness, and respect.

House was left in the same condition as when we left. Dogs and cat were well-cared for; we were delighted with our choice in Rhondee. She did great by us. Certainly reasonable; did not take advantage of the holidays for house sitting.”

“Jonathan was absolutely amazing. He took wonderful care of both of our dogs, and it was clear from the start how much he truly loves animals. The house was impeccable when we returned, and our pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. In fact, they now run to the front gate every day, waiting for him to come back! We will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend!”

About: I provide personalized attentive care for dogs with both private boarding in my home and house sitting in yours. For boarding, your dog stays as my only guest in my quiet private home-an alternative to kennels, commercial facilities, and high volume boarding. For house sitting, I care for your dog in the comfort and familiarity of your own home while respecting your routines, property, and privacy. I maintain established feeding, walking, sleeping, and medication schedules and provide regular communication while you are away and always mindful of your time. I have a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals and bring a calm, dependable approach to every stay. My focus is simple: individualized attention, consistency, safety, and the reassurance of knowing your dog-and your home- are being cared for thoughtfully. SCHEDULE I currently enjoy a fully flexible schedule, making me available whenever you need me most — including last minute requests, weekends, and holidays if I am available. Whether you need recurring visits or spontaneous coverage, I am ready and happy to help. ENVIRONMENT Because your dog is my only boarding guest and I can pay close attention to the small things - its normal routines, appetite, energy, behavior, sleeping preferences and the signals that tell me whether it is completely comfortable and settled. Feeding, walking, medication and other established routines are followed carefully and consistently.

“It's so difficult when you have a new pup in the house: the dog is still getting used to new surroundings and can easily become fearful when the new "hooman" is away for longer than usual. Matthew stepped in for me and Buddy felt immediately comfortable with him. I returned to no separation issues at all. Matthew went above and beyond while I was away. He is very calm and that rubbed off on Buddy. My Buddy just LOVES Matthew!”

“Our dogs loved Kimberly from the moment that they met here. She is truly the best sitter for two dogs with way different personalities. She kept in touch with darling photos, and the dogs were sorry to see her leave. Our house was spotless and the bed linens were changed. We are so grateful to be able to leave our four legged family with such a wonderful kind person. We can't thank her enough.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes since I was a young girl, and animals have always been a natural part of my life. I’ve rescued dogs throughout my adulthood and loved every breed, personality, and quirky soul that’s come my way. Even cats — despite my allergies — tend to walk right up to me, which always makes me smile. I’ll still care for them with love (and a little help from allergy meds). I’m an empath with a deep, intuitive connection to animals. Nervous, shy, senior, or sensitive pets usually relax around me quickly. I read their body language, respect their boundaries, and create a calm, predictable environment where they feel safe and understood. I also bring professional caregiving skills to my pet care. As a retired massage therapist and longtime caregiver, I can offer gentle pet massage, calming touch, and support for aging, compassionate end of life care and support or anxious dogs. I’m comfortable providing wound care, administering medications, and injections for diabetic animal when needed. What truly sets me apart is the combination of lifelong love of animals, my experience, intuition, and genuine compassion. Your pet will be cared for with patience, warmth, and the same steady presence I’ve brought to every animal I’ve loved. When I am caring for your loved one I commit to your Pet only. No other side jobs. No leaving to walk or feed another animal. I serve one family at a time whether that is 1 pet or 3 or more Your family is my priority always. I create a calm, predictable environment where pets feel safe, understood, and cared for in my Home or Yours. I will respect your home, your space, your privacy and the trust you placed in me.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for animals and my eagerness to learn. While I may not have a lot of experience, I'm dedicated to providing a safe and caring environment for your furry animals. I'm patient and attentive, making sure to follow any specific instructions you have. I’m excited to bond with your pets and ensure they feel loved and comfortable while you’re away! I work part-time, pet care fits right into my daily routine! I love making time for walks, playtime, and feeding. I usually set aside specific times for walks and play sessions, making sure pets get plenty of exercise and attention. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to make sure the pets feel at ease. I stick to their feeding schedules, walk times, and any other specific instructions given by the pet owners. I also make sure to keep the home tidy and respect the client’s space.

I was in town celebrating a birthday weekend with friends. I was staying at a hotel and didn’t want to (nor could I) leave my girls alone. Karaleah responded to my request quickly and was very responsive throughout. She stayed with them during the evening hours I was with friends, and had peace of mind knowing they were in good care. Karaleah was delightful and a pleasure to work with. I would hire her again when in the area.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cahuilla Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Cahuilla Hills on Rover is $69.93 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 533 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cahuilla Hills. 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 Cahuilla Hills 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 Cahuilla Hills 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 Cahuilla Hills 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 Cahuilla Hills. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
