“Tyler was absolutely the best choice for our dogs! She made us feel comfortable during our entire trip by sharing photos each day, and quickly responding to our inquiries. I highly recommend Tyler! She is a wonderful find! We would definitely use her again!”
“Mona was fantastic! She stayed in touch with me while was gone and provided me with updates, videos and photos of my kids. As a very nervous dog dad Mona made me feel very comfortable while I was gone. I would hire her back anytime and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and dependable dog/house sitter.”
“Once again, Rhondee did an excellent job of taking care of our "girls" and our home. She is quick to respond to texts and addresses any issues promptly. We always feel confident that she will do a great job.”
“She was wonderful in making sure our dogs and cats all got their attention from her especially our Ash. She took our swimmer out many times throughout the day to let her swim. Sent photos and updates. House was clean as well as the linens she used were washed and put away. She was great! Highly recommend”
About: There's nothing quite like having a dog in the house! I genuinely enjoy their companionship, their individual personalities, and all the little things that make each one special. When your dog stays with me, they're my only guest. That means plenty of personal attention, affection, and a comfortable place to feel right at home. Because I work from home, your dog will have companionship throughout the day. Whether they love walks, playtime, relaxing on the sofa, or simply being nearby, I'm happy to follow the routine that makes them feel happiest. I understand how important it is to know your dog is in loving hands while you're away. I'll follow their usual feeding, walking, medication, and sleeping routines, and send photos and updates so you can relax and enjoy your time away. My home is clean, peaceful, and welcoming. I've also completed Rover's enhanced background check for your peace of mind. I welcome a meet-and-greet before a first stay so we can get acquainted and make sure your dog feels comfortable. I also offer house sitting for dogs who are happiest in their own familiar surroundings. One dog. One home. Lots of love and attention. 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.
About: My uncle used to own a boarding and grooming facility in Tucson, Arizona and I worked for him. This included feeding dogs and cats as well as cleaning litter boxes and kennels. I also administered medication’s. Since being in the Coachella Valley, I’ve also done pet/house sitting for a family that had four dogs and three cats & another family that had four dogs & a blind orange cat. I have one small and spunky multi poo that has to have three medications that she will not chew so I have to physically administer it with a feeding syringe. I have one cat now, but at one time I had five that were all rescues and lived out their old age with us. I work full time, but I’m able to request time off if I get to pet/house sit. I’m also available before & after work & on my days off. I will carefully follow all instructions for the pet & home I will sit for. Everything from dietary needs, medication and walking. I will even bathe your pet.
About: I've been a pet owner my entire life. From being raised on a dairy farm, to owning a small hobby farm, dogs, cats, chickens, goats, and horses have all been a huge part of my life. Transitioning to a "snowbird," lifestyle, I have more time to spend loving on my own Frenchies and other people's pets as well! I have a lot of experience with dogs that need special attention to diet, allergies, specific schedules etc. Would love to meet you and care for your animals treating them as if they were my own! I'm retired and have a flexible schedule. I'm active with several hobbies but also available most days unless otherwise noted. I exercise a lot so love to walk and play with pets as much as possible. I prefer to care for pets in your own home, keeping it simple for you and your dog to be comfortable in their own environment.
“Mara was so good with my 3 girls. She sent me photos and videos throughout the day to update me. My dogs loved her. She even put Bluey on the TV for them to watch. I will definitely be booking Mara again.”
“Mikayla was absolutely perfect for our first time ever leaving Woody! It was so nice for Woody to be in our home, safe and sound and in his normal routine. Mikayla was a perfect fit our rambunctious puppy! She took everything in stride, communicated openly and despite us both labeling Woody as Wild Woody she agreed to come back ?? She is a lovely young woman that has an obvious love for animals and a patient, gentle way of showing it!”
“Don was great with both my dog, Neko, and my Cat, Teri. He sent videos regularly and keep me informed about Neko and especially how Teri were doing. Also, Don went out of his way to care for Teri, my cat. Teri has kidney disease and requires hydration with a saline solution every day. Don was wonderful with Teri by injecting the solution under his skin. This was accomplished by placing a needle under Teri's loose skin and slowly allowing the saline solution to flow under his skin. Don is very personable and I recommend him very highly for caring for your pet.”
About: Hi! I’m Vic! I have 4 years of hands on animal care experience, including working in a shelter medical department and caring for dogs and cats with a variety of needs. I’m comfortable with medication administration, feeding routines, senior pets, nervous animals, and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently looking to build my Rover clientele, so I’m especially excited to meet some new furry friends! 🐾 I’m available for pet care primarily in the evenings and on weekends. I keep my schedule organized and make sure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m very attentive when caring for pets and always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I pay close attention to appetite, behavior, bathroom habits, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I’m used to working with all kinds of personalities and will take the time to learn what makes each pet feel secure. I’ll follow their routine and care instructions closely, keep their environment clean and calm, and treat your pets like they’re my own ❤️
About: I had an English Setter Callie, and loved her as if she were my daughter. After she passed, it was not the same and I really missed her and the unconditional love and happiness she brought into my life. The past two years I've been house sitting for several people all over the United States, which began with an uber driver asking me if I'd look after his Belgian Malinois Berta while he went on a cruise. The experience was great and I realized how much I miss being around animals. I have done dozens of house sits since then, met amazing pets from dogs, cats, lizards, and frogs. I've met some great people in that time as well who I'd help in a heartbeat again should the need arise. On March 2, 2026 I found a chihuahua, Sweetie abandoned walking towards the road while I was house sitting for a customer. I saved her, she wasn't microchipped, no collar, nobody claimed her despite my listings. She is family now and an unbelievable gift in my life. She is 4 years old, very friendly with people, dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. Shes a total sweetheart and I bring her with me on sits, and have been impressed with how different pets interact with her and how they motivate and teach each other little things. I work remotely in financial services as a life insurance, mortgage protection broker. Plenty of schedule flexibility, I schedule all my own clients and appointments. I'm very health conscious and enjoy getting outside hiking, walking trails, or going to the gym to stay fit. Treat pets and homes as if they're your own. Leave things as found or better than when you arrived. I like to keep owners updated consistently usually every 2 or 3 days, with photos and an occasional video of something funny if you catch pets in the act.

Melanie is absolutely amazing! We’re returning customers and continue to be so happy with the care she provides. We’ve used her for both drop-in visits and house sitting, and she is always reliable, attentive, and wonderful with our pets. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing they’re in such caring and trustworthy hands while we’re away. We always come home to happy pets and a well-cared-for home. We highly recommend Melanie and will definitely continue booking with her! 🐾❤️
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.
Jessica was fabulous! She confirmed our appointment and was punctual. Our dogs were very comfortable with her and we were able to take our trip without worry, which was both a huge relief and tremendous comfort. We most definitely recommend Jessica to care provide pet care, she is the best!
Alexis was great! She was very careful with our diabetic cat (who requires 2 shots a day / 12 hours apart) and always let us know after each injection that the shot had gone well. She also stayed in touch and sent photos of our boys. We’d definitely book her again!

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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
