“Karl is the absolute best! He’s cared for our two dogs multiple times, and we always feel completely at ease leaving them with him. He’s reliable, communicative, and treats our pups like his own. They’re always so excited to see him, and we love the updates and photos he sends. Highly recommend Karl to anyone looking for a fantastic sitter!”
About: Hiya! I’m the quiet attentive home you’ve been searching for—whether for a puppy, a senior dog who requires medications, or a fearful pup who needs peace, or reassurance during the workday. I’m home full-time and have been a certified veterinary technician since 2009, with 20 years of experience in veterinary medicine, behavior, and humane reward based training. I also hold a certification as a Fear Free Practitioner and a Animal Reiki practitioner. I’d love to welcome your dog into my home or visit yours and provide whatever they need while you’re away—extra puppy potty breaks, medication administration and monitoring, or simply a calm, loving environment where they’re treated like my own. I keep my home peaceful and serene, so I only host one dog at a time to ensure individualized care and attention. The needs of those under my care are prioritized. I will do my best to accommodate your pets schedules needs. Just let me know how to help! The pets that I keep in my home are prioritized, while your baby is under my care they are treated like my own! Bring whatever makes them feel more cozy
“Amanda was awesome! She took really good care of our puppies and our pig! She gave them lots of love, played with them, and made sure they were happy and well fed. One of our puppies has had two spinal surgeries so requires one to be really careful with steps and care. Amanda did a great job of being careful with her, and making sure she was safe.”
“Venessa was nothing short of amazing. We last minute needed someone to stay with our dogs for a day while we were at work and she answered the call! I was sent pictures of my 3 fur babies all day with constant updates and communication. I will without a doubt be calling on Venessa again when we need someone to stay with the dogs.”
About: My own dog recently passed away at the age of 20, so I am an expert in care for Senior Pets and Special Needs (blindness, deafness, etc), and a calm and patient sitter for anxious dogs. I am very experienced with medication and specialized diets. Your pet will have a wonderful time in my care! I run my own businesses and am very flexible at the current time to care for your pets! I can even bring my work with me on occasion if needed. I am very respectful of your space and often take dogs out to the park or somewhere outdoors to play if there is no yard. Your animals will get plenty of playtime and love, and I value staying in close communication should any issues arise!
“Susan and Ian were lovely and took great care of my 4 cats while I was out of town for a few days. They both checked on the kitties and sent lots of pictures of them being loved on. I felt very comfortable being away which was nice because I was nervous about leaving them! I’ll definitely be booking with them again in the future :)”
“Lena is wonderful! We have a very timid German Shepard who has a hard time with strangers. Lena put our minds at ease, took wonderful care of our home, and made our nervous doggo very happy while we were away. Thank you, Lena!”
“Brooklyn was so good with our pups. They’re both older now and require more care. She handled all their needs so well and was always responsible about communicating with us as needed. Also appreciate how many photos she sends of our dogs through the days. Definitely recommend her services if she is available.”
“Tabitha was kind, caring, and loving of our pets! She was very attentive to their personalities and sent us lots of photos, which we always appreciate when away from home. Would 100% recommend Tabitha to anyone!”
“Sasha did a fantastic job petsitting my two dogs! Super responsive, easy to chat with, excellent with the pups, and kept the house super clean. She was also flexible and able to extend a day when I was gone longer than expected!”
“Jennah was fantastic. Our pets absolutely love her and she sent us regular updates and pictures of them which was wonderful. She is our number one go to person to help take care of our pets and I highly recommend her. Thank you so much Jennah for taking such good care of our fur babies”
About: My partner (Chip) and I have completed over 5 pet-sits on the platform, Trusted Housesitters. We both grew up with dogs and live a very active lifestyle, so rest assured your dog (or cat) will get plenty of attention and exercise! My partner and I both work from home, so we have plenty of time and bandwidth to care for your pets! We can take for walks, potty breaks throughout the day, and give them plenty of attention while we are working on our laptops. We only have an apartment, so no fenced yard but have easy access to Cathedral Park, Pier Park, and Peninsula Park. We're also right across from Forest Park, so if your pet likes to hike, we can take them on a forest adventure!
“Johnna was a great dog/house sitter! She was able to watch my dog, Rocco, on very short notice and still came to meet with both of us before watching him. She sent me frequent pictures of Rocco and other updates while watching him and left my home as clean as when I left! I will be booking again :)”
“Lindsay was amazing with the dogs! She sent tons of photos and was very communicative. She went way out of her way and even washed the dogs blankets when the puppy had an accident on them. I will definitely be rebooking! Thank you for watching the kids while I was gone!”
“Frank has been great. Even after our dig gave them an enthusiastic love bump in the nose! Mojie was safe and sound and extremely well cared for. House was also in excellent shape after our weekend away. Thank you!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 3,747 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chapman. 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 Chapman 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 Chapman 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 Chapman 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.
