“Jace is the absolute best dog sitter in the Fresno area especially if you have a dog that needs a little extra attention, has a specific routine they need, or some detailed instructions that they need followed like our dog Sissy. When Jace came to meet the dogs they came prepared having read the instructions we shared via the app. They also came with questions and took careful notes to make sure they had a clear understanding of everything that the dogs would need. While we were away, Jace checked in regularly with photos and updates about what they were doing. They were proactive and asked about some of our dogs needs that weren't clarified in the instructions we left. Jace also quickly followed up when we had questions about how things were going. Jace was also an incredibly great guest in our home. They kept up with their own dishes and left our home as tidy as we left it. Jace is an absolute professional when it comes to pet care and you will not be disappointed. The level of thoughtfulness, consideration, and care for our animals was unparalleled and second to none. Its clear our dogs Barks and Sissy made a new friend in Jace and are likely looking forward to the next time they will spend with them! I would recommend Jace to anyone!”

About: Since I was young, I’ve always had dogs and cats. I grew up as the neighborhood pet sitter and have always adored being around animals. Now, I’m a dog groomer and I spend my free time volunteering for the SPCA and Happy Trails. I’d love to meet your wonderful pets and assist you in taking care of them. I am currently working part time as a dog groomer, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! My schedule is generally 12p-4p on Tues-Fri and 8a-4p on Saturday. Otherwise, I’m free to pamper your pets! I am very patient and compassionate so I’m very willing to work with pets of all personality types. I love big dogs, shy dogs, and all bully breeds. I’m also calm and considerate for nervous kitties.
About: I’m passionate about providing the best care for pets, no matter their age or needs. From my experience caring for Paris, who required medication on a schedule, I’ve learned the importance of attention to detail and consistency. I’m adaptable and enjoy creating a safe, enriching environment for pets to feel at home. Whether it’s taking a walk, giving medication, or offering companionship, I treat every pet with the love and respect they deserve. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets I care for by creating a flexible, loving environment. My schedule is designed to ensure that every pet receives the attention they deserve—whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles. I make sure to stick to feeding, medication, and exercise routines to keep pets feeling comfortable and secure. Each day, I dedicate time to ensure that each pet feels like they’re getting the best care possible, no matter what their specific needs are. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. At my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure, pet-proofed areas for play and rest. I keep all harmful substances out of reach, and my space is designed to be cozy and calming for all pets. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, including their preferences and any special requirements. When caring for pets in their own homes, I maintain their routine as closely as possible, ensuring a familiar and stress-free environment. I communicate regularly with pet parents, providing updates and reassurance. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved every moment of their stay.

I will follow instructions given and ask any questions before being left alone with your baby. I strongly believe in communication between us to report any issues or follow up questions in a timely manner. I value punctuality, whether it’s providing medications on time or arriving from a walk. I will clean up after them and ensure their used areas are clean!

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs while growing up since I was 7. I learned how to feed, walk, bathe the pets I had. And learned more things about dogs when I had my dog Oreo in 2020.

Pet sitting at someone's house I'll be respectful and responsible, making sure your fur babies is in the best care on my watch.
“We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive. Our cats are typically very anxious and don’t warm up to new people easily, but she was incredibly patient and gentle with them. By the end of our trip, they were comfortable and even snuggly with her, which really says a lot. She treats your pets like her own and consistently goes above and beyond what’s asked. As anxious pet parents, it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She also provided regular, detailed updates, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave our pets and will definitely be using her again. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets, understand their quirks, and keep you sane while you’re away—she’s it. 10/10, no notes.”
About: I’ve had pets since I was 10 so taking care of animals is something I’ve always been used to. I’ve looked after puppies, senior dogs, and all kinds of cats over the years. Every pet has their own personality and I try to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re with me. I currently work part time M-F 2-6pm (Wednesdays 12:30-6:00pm) I do have the holidays off since I work at a school. So I am available. For a safe and trustworthy environment, I always listen to and follow any rules or instructions the owner leaves. I’ll also ask questions whenever needed to make sure your pet gets the best care possible.

FAQs for House Sitting - Calwa
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Calwa on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 564 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Calwa. 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 Calwa 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 Calwa 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 Calwa 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 Calwa. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
