About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life and caring for them is something I genuinely love!! I previously worked at an emergency and specialty hospital for animals where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide variety of personalities, needs, and temperaments. That experience taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and understanding are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m comfortable around young, energetic, nervous, shy, senior, and high-maintenance dogs. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior or anything that may indicate a pet isn’t feeling like themselves. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’m happy to follow their usual schedule and give them the individual attention they’re used to. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care like they’re my own. I want both pets and their owners to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re apart. I currently work a part time job at a restaurant in downtown Oceanside and my shifts are only up to 5 hours at a time. So I have a pretty flexible schedule that can be easy to work around! When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep them comfortable and maintain the routine they’re already familiar with. I’ll take the time to learn their normal feeding schedule, walk and potty routine, personality, preferences, and any special instructions from their owner. I’ll provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and companionship while making sure they’re safe and comfortable in their own space. I’m also very attentive to changes in behavior or anything that seems unusual, and I’ll keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel reassured while they’re away. I want your pets to feel like they’re spending time with someone they can trust, rather than simply being checked on while you’re gone!
“Sophia was professional, responsive, and so kind to our doggos! I got updates and photos regularly, and she helped us trust that the dogs were taken care of so we could enjoy our weekend away.”

“Where to even begin! While my husband and I were away, Yajahyra stayed at our place to take care of our Frenchie baby Remy. I received detailed updates with pictures and videos and she left the cutest little poloroid picture of him. Remy was definitely missing her after she left! We can't wait to book with her again in the future.”


“We had Nicolas come and house sit and watch our dogs while we were out of town. He was extremely communicative, providing updates daily on the dogs and our house. He is easy going, respectful and a great dog and house sitter! We will be using him for all future trips as he made us so comfortable and gave our dogs all of his attention and time. I’d book with Nicolas without any hesitation!”


“Karli was absolutely amazing with our little Bentley. She loved him like her own and made sure he was always having fun. She was great with updates while we were gone and left our home looking great! I know we’ll be going to her for future puppy sitting needs.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life, growing up with family dogs and now loving and caring for my own cat. Over the past few years, I have regularly house sat and dog sat for friends and neighbors, handling everything from feeding schedules to long walks. I am deeply comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I specialize in giving high-energy dogs the active exercise, walks, or runs they need while keeping their owners' homes perfectly clean and secure. I work a standard daytime schedule during the week, so my availability is tailored for dedicated weekend care and weekday evening visits. For house sitting, I am fully available to stay at your home from Friday evening through Sunday afternoon. For walks and drop-ins, I am available anytime on weekends and starting at 6 PM on weekdays. This allows me to give your pet my undivided attention when I am on the clock. Your pet’s safety and the security of your home are my top priorities. Having base access means I have passed rigorous background checks, bringing an extra layer of trust and reliability to every booking. I am incredibly respectful of your living space and will always leave it exactly as I found it. During our first Meet & Greet, we will walk through your pet's specific safety routines, emergency contacts, and home security preferences so you can travel with complete peace of mind. I also provide frequent photo and text updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe.
“Heidi was a literal rockstar when it came to watching our anxious dog, Kona. This was Heidi's first stay with Kona and she was really flexible in coming over for a meet and greet beforehand. The key exchange went very smoothly as both me and my husband could not exchange in person. All was going well for the first two nights, until our neighbor in the adjoining row house had a fire in the early morning hours. Heidi got Kona out safely, thankfully no one was injured, and was in constant communication with me, my husband, our emergency contact, even the fire restoration team that showed up later in the day. As you can imagine, with an anxious dog and a new sitter, we were really worried about the situation. Heidi had to relocate with Kona to her boyfriend's house as there would be no water for the rest of her stay. Given the situation, we had our emergency contacts take Kona for the last night of Heidi's scheduled stay; we were pretty concerned about her 'delicate disposition' (i.e. Kona is a basketcase who does not handle change and new people well). We are so thankful that Heidi was there for Kona - and us - with the constant communication, flexibility, and overall care and concern she showed for our little girl. Several of our neighbors mentioned to us that our dog sitter did an excellent job keeping Kona calm while first responders addressed the situation. I think it's safe to say that Heidi is an exceptionally trustworthy individual who can more than adequately care for your fur babies - no matter the circumstances - when you're out of town. Thank you Heidi!!!”

“My husband and I used Shari to watch our dog and cat while we were away for the day. She is responsible, kind, intelligent and, most importantly, we felt comfortable trusting her with our home and pets. She texted pictures and provided updates on our animals. We will definitely book her for future pet sitting needs.”

About: Hi! My name is Isabella! Im a college student and have been around dogs my whole life. I currently walk dogs through a company, and have been for a few months! Everyday I walk dogs, feed them, and make sure they are taken care of. I also do overnight stays where I have to walk, feed, clean, and make sure i give medicine to the dogs! Working with dogs and animals is my passion so your fur baby will be in great hands! Pet care fits into my daily routine since I have my own dog to take care of. She’s an older chihuahua and requires specific medicine day and night. I administer her medicine, walk her, feed her, and make sure to give her lots of love and cuddles! I have lots of experience in taking care of animals. I have been responsible for making sure they get their medication, they get fed properly, and that they go on their walks. I always want to make sure that the dog i am watching is comfortable and happy!

About: I have taken care of many different dogs and cats over the years and always go above and beyond to make them and their parents happy. I have worked with small and large dogs, and can care for multiple pets at a time. I love animals so much and watching them is always the best part of my day! I have my own business so I am able to leave and walk a dog whenever I need to! When doing doggy day care or boarding I will often bring the pup with me to the gallery so it can hang out. I am very attentive and any time I am walking a dog I make sure to be very aware of our surroundings. Even when I let them out in a backyard I make sure to keep an eye on them. I always make sure everything is okay before I leave (checking there’s no food out, making sure they have enough water, triple checking there’s door is closed and locked!)
About: I'm from Oregon originally and I grew up with my own dog and would look after all my friends and neighbors dogs growing up. Now that I'm in California, I miss having a dog that I can take care of, so I would love the opportunity to help you with yours! I'm very laid-back and I understand that things come up last minute, so cancellations or last minute requests are always more than welcome. I can't wait to meet you and your wonderful pets! I work from home full-time and would love some company while I work, or a welcome break for a walk and/or play time with your pet! I love to show my pets attention, let them rest, and make sure that they are safe at all times. I have my own set of guidelines that I follow, but I’m always willing to learn more and implement whatever you need for your pet.
About: I grew up on a farm with horses and have taken care of all kinds of pets including dogs, cats, horses, bunnies, and goats. Neighbors, friends, and family regularly rely on me to watch their pets. I’m available for walks on weekday evenings and have flexible availability throughout the weekend. I’m also happy to dog sit either at your home or at my home, as long as your pup gets along well with my dog. When staying with me, your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention, including a morning walk, an afternoon/evening walk when I finish work, and another walk before bed. I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I have one dog who typically gets along with other pets. In my care, pets are treated with patience and love. They will get everything they need and more.
About: Hey there! I have lived my entire 30 years with dogs. From growing up with two golden retrievers to getting my own dog louie at 17- and seeing him through his senior years all the way up until his passing this past February. We still have his sweet loving sister Nala who is 5, a tender gentle girl who lives for fetch! She may be timid at first meet but is just a submissive gentle girl who eventually opens up for fun loving play if the other dog will have her :) I have dog and cat sat for family and friends since I can remember. I absolutely love animals and take care of them with immense responsibility and care as I know from my own experience they are often some of the most important beings in our life. My husband Louie (my dog Louie came first they just happened to have the same name! lol) is also an animal lover and instantly adopted my babies upon meeting and has always treated them with tender and diligent care. We are responsible loving and caring pet parents who take the responsibility of looking after your loved one very seriously! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. We look forward hearing from you. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule that I create with plenty of time to work around the needs of the animals I am caring for. We currently live in a home with an enclosed deck space, however whenever we aren't home we keep the windows and doors completely shut and locked.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes for most of my life and would love to have an opportunity to bond with your little or big critter. I have a flexible availability on most weekends and early mornings & evenings on weekdays. As long as we communicate with each other scheduling shouldn’t be a problem. I’ve had personal experience with working and caring for pets with a fenced and un fenced yard. It all depends on the circumstances needed to accommodate your pet.

“Katherin was amazing! My dogs absolutely loved her, and it was clear she kept them happy, entertained, and well cared for throughout her stay. She communicated promptly and respectfully, provided regular updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. To top it all off, she even left our house cleaner than we left it! I highly recommend Katherin to any dog parent looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We would happily book her again.”

Once again, Selina was the perfect dog and house sitter. This time, without missing a beat, she took care of Stella's medications, which have become much more complicated... While we were away, Selina was very attentive to keeping us in the loop on how Stella was doing and sending daily pictures. Highly recommended!

Karli was wonderful with Storm during his four-day stay. She was caring, responsible, and very attentive to his needs. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands while I was away. She kept me updated and took great care of him and my home. I highly recommend Karli and would absolutely have her stay with Storm again!
Savannah was absolutely wonderful with out two dogs. We booked last minute while visiting town and she was able to come watch the dogs. She communicated the whole time and our dogs warmed up to her immediately. We’ve had plenty of dog sitters and Savannah truly stands out among the rest!
Noemi took care of our boy Luthor once again and once again did an amazing job! She stayed in our home for 5 nights, which we appreciate greatly as it means Luthor gets to be in his space and feel safe. She took him on walks and even brought him a toy 🥲. Thank you so much Noemi for treating our boy so well.

Dog handlers don’t just take care of fur babies, they also take care of the clients as well. And some of us are worse than the dogs. I’m one of those. My dogs are my obsession and I’m very particular in their care. For the first time ever, I left my dogs in the care of someone who wasn’t me (1st in five years). My anxiety was through the roof. Joel was EXCEPTIONAL. Joel handled my crazy and the dogs with grace and kindness , and I’m suspicious that Axel and Harley may like him better than me. Both of my dogs are German Shepherds and require a strong, confident handler. They aren’t couch potatoes. Joel was fantastic and took their leads without hesitation. He was mindful of Axel and Harley and thoughtful of my personal stress. I would absolutely recommend his services and will be using him again in the future.

This was my first time working with Malia. She came in for a meet and greet and it was immediately a wonderful fit, not to mention my car Koa having an instant liking to her. Malia took the time to understand Mia and Koa’s elaborate routine and asked questions. The day of Malia was attentive to detail and communicative throughout the day which helped me feel good knowing Mia and Koa received the best care possible. I could tell she was also enjoying her time getting to know them and spending time with my lovely voids!

Stephanie is great! We have 2 older high anxiety dogs with heart problems and a cat that doesn’t like anyone. She was extremely attentive to their needs and made sure they were super comfortable. Usually when we get home, they have a lot of anxiety. This time, it was like we never left!

The average cost of House Sitting in Camp Pendleton South is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $59 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Camp Pendleton South 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 Camp Pendleton South 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Camp Pendleton South 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.
