“Anthony did an amazing job caring for our dog and our home. Our dog is very shy but he took the time to build a great relationship with her. He even bathed her and left the house spotless! He provided is updates during our trip and really did an amazing job. We would love to have him watch her again in the future!”
“Ariana was very kind, caring, resourceful, and responsible with my beautiful Husky-mix Lily Rose, under very difficult circumstances. She is very much worth your consideration when you are looking for someone smart and caring to trust with your much-loved, four-pawed family members. If I had the need, I would hire her again. Thank you, Ariana.”
“Second time we’ve had Jeremy watch our boys and already scheduling with him for our next trip! Great communication, sends lots of pics and our house was clean when we arrived home. Our boys were also very tired which is a sign they had a great time 😊”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 8 years through nannying, with the last 3 years being full-time pet sitting. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—big or small, young or old. I also have experience with senior and disabled dogs and understand how important it is to be patient, attentive, and consistent with their routines. I always follow care instructions closely and make safety a top priority. I genuinely love being around animals and make sure every pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for, just like they would at home. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine since I have an open and flexible schedule. I’m available during the day, evenings, and overnight, and I’m able to plan my day around a pet’s needs rather than squeezing them in. Whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, meds, or just hanging out and keeping them company, I make sure they get the time and attention they deserve. I also have a reliable car, so getting to and from visits is not a problem. I care for pets in their own homes so they can stay comfortable in a space they know. I’m very respectful of both the pet and the home and always follow care instructions exactly as they’re given. I pay close attention to routines, safety, and any special needs, especially with senior or disabled dogs. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and never stressed, and I always aim to keep things calm, clean, and familiar. I treat every pet like my own and want pet parents to feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
“Ellie did such a great job taking care of our high-energy puppy while we were away for a couple days. She was very responsive, provided regular updates, and left our house in excellent condition. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Larry was great with Pringle. He is very professional, punctual and knowledgeable about dogs. He took great care of Pringle while I away at work and made sure she got lots of attention. It’s clear he really understands and loves working with dogs. I highly recommend.”
“Jacqui was very responsive and timely with all communications and visits. Our dog liked her from the very first visit and so did we. She sent us pictures and updates often, which was helpful and reassuring. We felt our pup was well taken care of while we were out of town. We will definitely use Jacqui again in the future and would recommend her to others!”
“Jennifer was an absolute lifesaver. She took great care of our pups and home. She was very communicative and sent updates. She even helped us out when we were running late and needed some additional time from her. Would highly recommend her, and I will definitely be requesting her again. Thanks Again!”
“We love Jade! She is absolutely incredible and made me feel as if I never left my baby. She provided updates and sent plenty of beautiful pics. My babygirl loved her and brought her so much joy while I was away. We will be booking again and again!”
“Lexy is an excellent and dependable dog-sitter! I’m certainly booking her again next time. She gives regular and detailed updates with many photos. My dog is about 80 lbs and causes lots of mischief, and she handled everything with ease. Highly recommend!”
“Taylor was a pleasure to work with! She was very communicative and kept us updated with our pet's needs. Letting us know if they were eating properly and how they were doing on their walks. Taylor was great with our dogs and sent wonderful pictures. She was very flexible when our dog had to have eyedrops given last minute right before we left. Her positive attitude and dedication gave us peace of mind while we were gone on vacation for a week. We knew our dogs were getting well cared for and wouldn't hesitate to use her again! We highly recommend her!”
About: Hi, I’m Julia! I’ve been a dog sitter for 10 years and absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds. I have two dogs of my own and lots of experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve cared for pets with a wide range of needs, including: • Puppies, kittens, and senior pets • Dogs recovering from cancer or amputation • Dogs who experience seizures • Pets with limited mobility or arthritis • Dogs with chewing habits and anxiety • Medications and following special routines I’ve also watched cats and would love to gain more experience with them too! Above all, I truly love caring for animals and want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I always keep communication open and send regular photo updates, so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I am available for only boarding/house sitting during the work week (Mon-Fri) and available for all care including drop ins, walks, house sitting and boarding on weekends :) With my extensive experience of watching dogs I’ve learned a lot about keeping animals safe. I’m constantly keeping an eye on them and looking out for any potential hazards. I always create a safety plan with the pet parent beforehand so if anything ever did happen we can get your pet the care it needs as soon as possible .
“Went above and beyond to make sure that I felt comfortable, followed all directions and was very attentive and very flexible. Will definitely use her anytime. I’m in vegas thank you so much Cyndi .”
“Ozzie took an INSTANT liking to Emma and I’m not surprised. She is gentle, caring and an absolute natural with dogs. Emma looked after our home as if it were her own, provided great communication in advance and during the sit and sent us some great photos whilst we were away. I’d have absolutely no hesitation in leaving Ozzie with Emma again.”

Helen was a wonderful and caring sitter for our kitties. She was responsible, attentive, and an excellent communicator throughout her sitting. We felt very comfortable knowing our cats were in such good hands. We highly recommend Helen to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Anthony did an amazing job caring for our dog and our home. Our dog is very shy but he took the time to build a great relationship with her. He even bathed her and left the house spotless! He provided is updates during our trip and really did an amazing job. We would love to have him watch her again in the future!
Caitlan was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter for our anxious dog, Alfie, and our cat, Roland. Caitlan made Alfie feel very calm and loved, and from the first moment they met I knew she'd be a great fit for an anxious doggo! Caitlan followed our requests to a T and went above and beyond with a checklist noting his meds being taken, and walks 2x a day. Alfie struggles with leash aggression with other dogs sometimes, and Caitlan really helped him with this behavior...he definitely seems to have improved! Roland, our cat, also struggles with wanting nighttime feeding and she managed to help him reduce his 'poking' for food behaviors down to just 1x a night. We didn't realize when we booked Caitlan that she is not just a dog/cat sitter but something of an animal therapist as well, lol! Caitlan communicated often about how they were doing, sent photos etc. We knew they were in such safe and loving hands with her! To top it all off, when we got back after three weeks she had washed her bed linens and sofa throw, and made us the most delicious banana bread. Caitlan was uber professional but most importantly she really connects with animals and intuitively seems to know what is best for them. We are definitely going to book her again for any future trips!
Brianna was amazing with our 10+ year old fur baby who has significant medication needs. She administered eye meds 3 times a day and gave him his night time allergy meds without fail. We came home to a very happy and healthy dog. Would highly recommend her services.
Jeremy took incredible care of our bullmastiff, Bernie, who can definitely be a handful! He kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, left our home spotless, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely book him again. Highly recommend!
Bruna was absolutely amazing with my cat Carl and French Bulldog Daisy. I needed a sitter with less than 24 hours’ notice over the Fourth of July holiday, and she stepped in without hesitation. At the time, Daisy had just undergone surgery and required constant supervision along with medication administration. B handled everything flawlessly and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She sent frequent updates, photos, and messages, which meant so much given Daisy’s condition. Most importantly, it was obvious that both Carl and Daisy adored her. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for in her hands. I would not hesitate to book Bruna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter.
Hallie was amazing! It was our first time using a pet sitter for our boy, so we were a little stressed. But Hallie took care of Ace just like we do. She took him on so many long walks, which he absolutely loves, and he was so happy with her. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We will definitely book with Hallie again. Highly recommend!
Arielle did an incredible job house sitting our 3 pets over the long weekend. She was professional, attentive, and a joy to our 2 dogs and cat. Updates every day with pictures and a report on the days and evening activities. We knew our pets were safe and happy with Arielle watching them. Would and will try to rebook with her again!
Samantha was an AMAZING dog sitter for our sweet boy Wallace. We came home to a sweet and calm boy, and we could just tell how loved and attended to he had been during our time away. We appreciated her communication and she sent a few pics of our sweet boy, to let us know how he was doing. BONUS - she did an amazing sketch/doodle of him that I DO plan on framing bc it’s so incredible. Would recommend her to anyone!
Antonia deserves 10 stars! She is lovely,kind, competent, and clearly loves animals. This was my first time having a petsitter in my home to watch my two little dogs and I must say I was a bit nervous. But Antonia washed away all of my doubts. For those of you who will be first-time petsitter users (and future users as well) Antonia is the way to go. Shes really a gift. Took excellent care of my pups and fed and walked them exactly as directed, gave them treats. She let them sleep in the bed with her. My pups fell in love with her. And she left my home immaculate! Also - she sent frequent videos of the pups so I could see how they were doing. I highly recommend Antonia to sit for your pets. They will be in great hands. I’m looking forward to working with her again in the near future. So glad I found her. Thank you, Antonia!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Calabasas
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Calabasas on Rover is $55.14 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 11,813 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Calabasas. 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 Calabasas 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 Calabasas 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 Calabasas 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.

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.
