“Sabrina came and played with Finn all day! She sent me updates and pictures. She had no problem helping out with all of Finn’s wacky food schedules and puppy demands. Sabrina was great!”

“Gretchen was amazing with Ava and took great care of her and our home while we were away! She was especially great at communicating with us and sharing frequent updates, which is always much appreciated! We came home to a clean home and a happy dog. Would highly recommend Gretchen!”

“My husband and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving away from home and it helped knowing Mallory was watching over our fur baby. Charlee loved her right away so it was very comforting knowing she was in good hands. Mallory took care of our home as well. We will definitely be calling on her again.”

About: I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I take the time to ensure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as I prioritize time for walks, feedings, and play sessions. I work a very flexible remote job throughout the week and have a lot of spare time! Their needs are naturally integrated into my day, allowing me to provide attentive and reliable care. I prioritize safety and trust by following these practices: respecting the home, following instructions, regular updates, and emergency preparedness. Building trust and ensuring the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment is always my priority.
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a child. I had two senior dogs of my own that I have had since they were both puppies. Two older cats and one kitten have made it into our lives. I used to work at a doggy daycare center where I would watch, feed, and bathe any dog there. I currently work at a vet clinic and can administer any medications necessary for your pets health. I currently work full-time at a vet clinic in Ventura. I work from 7:40am to 5pm. I can do boarding and sitting any day of the week as long as you give me a few days notice. For walk-ins and drop-ins, I am also available in the morning before 7am and after 5pm. If you reside in Ventura I can provide a midday drop in or walk as well. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room for your fur babies to roam around. If your pet needs any kind of medication or any special care, I will be more than happy to be able to do that for you while you are away.
“Lisa was incredible and the best dog sitter we’ve hired!! She showed up for the meet and greet on time, and the dogs LOVED her. My dog Koda is happy to see you and then typically runs away but with Lisa, he cuddled right up to her. When she stayed in our home, she made sure to send lots of pictures that were professional quality of both of the pups and send daily updates as well. She was very responsive and texted us back right away. I wasn’t worried about a single thing while she stayed at our place. She was very kind, respectful, & I honestly couldn’t even tell that anyone had stayed in our home with how neat she kept it. I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa. She is passionate, caring, & truly loves on your animals as if they were her own. I can’t imagine booking with anyone else. She’s simply the best!”

About: I am a huge animal lover (often times more than a human lover) and find such happiness in caring for them. I treat every pet as if they were my own with treats, pets, and the occasional selfie. I have experience in training puppies, caring for elderly dogs, and of course the sass of caring for kitties as well. I hope you consider me to be a friend to your pet! I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home caring for my own pets. Because of this, I’m very used to daily routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and checking on animals throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting, and I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. I take safety and comfort very seriously when caring for pets. I’m very attentive to animal behavior and make sure pets feel calm, safe, and secure in their environment. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully for feeding, routines, and any special care. I also have experience with multiple pets in a home, including my own cats and dog, so I’m comfortable managing different personalities and making sure every animal gets the attention they need.
“Sara is excellent pet sitter. She was very easy to communicate with always on time. When we returned home our dogs where very relaxed and they were very happy. Highly recommend.”

“Well we popped her cherry for her first time dog sitting g. She was outstanding. She came to our hotel and hung out with Stash all evening. Sent pictures and Stash was very content and happy later in the evening. Not a stressed out crazed puppy. She will definitely be a great addition to the rover team!”

About: Hi, my name is Arielle H. As I’ve grown up, I’ve rarely ever not had a pet in my house. I have loved dogs ever since my first dog at the age of 2! I have been working and volunteering with animals for years!I will maintain any schedule changing and will make sure your dog gets extra love and care while being away. This grants me opportunity and I absolutely can’t wait to meet you and your pets and take great great care of them! I work on the Port Hueneme base, so I’m available after 4 PM on weekdays. On weekends, my schedule is open and flexible to meet your pet’s needs! When caring for pets, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness.

I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable in their own environment, so I provide lots of love and attention while respecting their space and unique personalities.
“We had an absolutely incredible experience with Sage, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. This was our first time using Rover, and we were honestly a bit nervous going in. Our cat, Lily, is very old and can be a little grouchy and skittish around new people, which added to our concern. From the very beginning, Sage put all of those worries at ease. To our amazement, Lily warmed up to her very quickly, something we’ve rarely seen. Her professionalism and communication were outstanding. She kept us consistently updated (daily photos and FaceTime on request), which made being away so much easier, and it was clear in every message how much she genuinely cared. Sage has an intuitive understanding of cats that’s hard to put into words… she truly is a cat whisperer. On top of that, Sage took wonderful care of our home while housesitting for over a week. We didn’t know what to expect having someone stay in our house for that long, but she was incredibly respectful and left everything in perfect condition. It felt like our home was in thoughtful, capable hands the entire time. Sage didn’t just meet our expectations, she blew them away. We would trust her again without hesitation.”

About: We’re a dog-loving household based who recently relocated to Ventura, we settled into a cozy ground-floor one-bedroom in a super walkable neighborhood near the college—perfect for easy strolls and outdoor time.

“We were having a hard time finding someone to watch our dog Casanova for our wedding weekend. He was in the county shelter for over a year before we adopted him and he can be very picky about who he likes. He’s a big boy and can be intimidating as well. Leanna and Julio were amazing!!!! They were so great with him he just loved them both. They came for a meet and greet and Cass almost immediately crawled in their laps. They have such good mellow energy and they definitely made him and us super comfortable. They sent us a ton of pictures over the weekend to give us updates too which was great as well. We will for sure be using them as our go to sitters from now on and cannot recommend them highly enough!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Channel Islands Beach
We were more than happy with our experience in using Rebecca to take care of our dog, Charles. Our original plans to have someone watch him fell through (not through Rover) and we needed to find someone ASAP. We were able to meet her and our family instantly felt comfortable with her watching the house and our dog. She made a potentially stressful situation into a positive one. She was great about giving us updates and pictures. Charles loved her and we could tell he was happy with her giving him both walks and lots of cuddle time. She left the house in great shape. We would use her again without hesitation!

Jessica and John were wonderful dog sitters for Roxie. I received daily photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Roxie looked so happy and well cared for in every picture. When I returned home everything was spotless and it was clear she had been in good hands. Thank you both so much for taking such good care of her. I highly recommend Jessica and John to anyone looking for reliable caring pet sitters!

FAQs for House Sitting - Channel Islands Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Channel Islands Beach on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 1,460 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Channel Islands Beach. 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 Channel Islands Beach 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 Channel Islands Beach 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 Channel Islands Beach 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 99% 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.
