“Mike took good care of our two older dogs. They were happy and healthy apon our 5 day return and the house was great as we left it. He got packages from outside that werent supose to be delivered so that was great too. He showed up on time and stayed until our agreed upon touch down of flight very late the last night. Knowing he lives in the town we do also is nice. We will definitely get him to stay again if he's free next time we need a sitter. He even fixed our tv remote/sound bar connectivity issues. Thanks Mike! Dana”

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and believe they deserve the same patience, attention, and care we would give our own family. As a dog walker and pet sitter, I focus on making every walk and visit a positive, comfortable experience while keeping your pet’s safety and routine a top priority. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog as an individual. I take the time to learn their personality, energy level, favorite activities, and specific needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether your pup loves a long walk, needs extra cuddles, or simply wants a calm companion, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m dependable, communicative, and attentive to the little details. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your fur baby is happy and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel safe, loved, and excited to see me again! 🐾 I currently not employed and have alot of flexibility. I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of love throughout the day. I’m also flexible and understand that every pet has a different routine. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime schedules so they feel comfortable and at home. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Most importantly, I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs so they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. 🐾

About: Hello! My name is Jennell and I am an energetic, kind, and fun person. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy the outdoors. I have a big heart for animals, experience with various types of animals, and my own fur baby at home, an indoor male cat. I've always had pets in my home, my current cat, and previous dogs, birds, fish, hamster, frogs, and snakes. I care for any other animals as I would want mine cared for. I've pet sat many times, different animals for different people. I work during the week but have breaks throughout my day and my workplace is down the street from my house only 2 minutes away. My weekends are free and spent at home with my fur baby or in the great outdoors. I have a large, fenced grass yard area to relax in and huge open field on my property to play fetch. I love going hiking and to the beach and have a car to transport animals in if you would like them to go on adventures too. Extra scratches and cuddles will also be included! I work during the week, but am available in the morning, mid-day, and evening to come home or go to your house to visit before or after work and during my breaks. I am available full day on the weekends. I care for pets with love and kindness. I will treat them as I would want mine to be treated. I am a very genuine person and love animals.
“Jaclyn was great! Our old girl who doesn't usually give strangers the time of day liked Jaclyn instantly so we knew it was a good fit and happily trusted Jaclyn with our home and "kids". She was attentive to our babies' needs, flexible for ours and sent us plenty of adorable pictures along the way. We're already planning to rely on her for the next adventure.”
“Samantha did great with our dogs. We live in a camper and that didn't bother her at all, some people are apprehensive about that but not Samantha! We plan on using her several more times while I am working in the Gilroy area.”
“George is everything you want in a dog/house sitter: capable, dependable, thoughtful, and communicative. By asking all the right questions about temperament, feeding, our home in general, etc., George made us feel very comfortable leaving our babies with a sitter for the first time in nearly two years. George stayed with our two large dogs overnight, one of whom is a recent adoption, so duties included feeding, administering meds to both dogs, regular potty breaks, as well as making sure the dogs remained friendly with each other. One of our dogs can be stubborn when it comes to meds and mealtime, and yet George handled it all without any problems whatsoever. We received regular updates with photos, and we returned to happy dogs and a home that was possibly cleaner than we left it! We highly recommend George, and we've already booked another weekend away!”
“Coralee was absolutely incredible. She was very communicative and sent beautiful pictures. She really understood my sensitive baby, and he warmed up quickly to her and clearly felt comfortable and safe. Coralee also was patient and responsive when our travel plans got disrupted, and kept my baby company much later than we originally planned. I very highly recommend her.”

I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry family members and give them lots of love and attention while you’re away! I work remotely. I have time to give pets extra love when needed + easier to bond with them. I can wake up early for feeding + play time In my clients home, I don’t rush them. I extend my hand out first so they can smell me and get to know me by my sent. I follow their routines by the T! So they know we are gonna do their favorite things and we could build trust.

About: I have 20 years of family pet care experience, deeply rooted in providing daily, personalized care to a variety of family pets. From feeding routines to grooming and creating a nurturing home environment, I’ve handled each aspect with dedication. My experience includes monitoring health and behavior, recognizing early signs of issues, and administering basic first aid or medications when necessary. I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal needs, ensuring each pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, which has strengthened my skills in attentive, compassionate animal care and their wellbeing. Their lives are just as valuable. I am currently a Full-Time Store Manager in retail, which makes my schedule very flexible and easy to manage. I always do my best to move things around to make more space and time for my clients and their pets if our schedules do not align right away. I care for another person’s pet with the same level of dedication and compassion I would for my own. When in their home, I prioritize creating a safe, comforting environment for the pet, following their usual routines to minimize stress. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific care instructions provided, ensuring continuity of care and familiarity. I’m mindful of maintaining cleanliness and respect for the home, and I always keep an eye out for any signs of discomfort or health concerns, addressing them promptly. My goal is to provide peace of mind, knowing their pet is in capable, loving hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Carnadero
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,409 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Carnadero. 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 Carnadero 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 Carnadero 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 Carnadero 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Carnadero. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
