About: I love dogs and have been taking care of them for 10 years. I would treat and take care of any dog as if they were mine. I always make time to play and take care of dogs. Even working out after the gym I go on runs with them all the time. Dogs need their exercise too! Depending on the service Im always willing to accommodate to make client and dog feel comfortable and happy. No matter the situation the dog will always come first and be safe with me.
“Daniela was wonderful with my cat and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter. She stayed for two nights in my home while I was away. She was respectful of my space and left everything in great condition when she left. My cat was well looked after and I received plenty of updates and photos from Daniela which gave me great peace of mind. :) Overall Daniela is kind, thorough, communicative and most of all really cares about animals and knows how to take care of them. I felt my cat was in great hands!”
“This is our second time using Emily and she is just fantastic! I cannot recommend her enough, she is so caring and thoughtful and provides such excellent care for our fur baby. She sends daily updates and pictures and also took great care of the house since we had her stay at the house for the duration of our vacation as well. Highly trustworthy and responsible, we would continue to use her again every time!”
About: I have always enjoyed being around animals ever since I was a little kid. I have owned and cared for rabbits, dogs, fish, turtles and parakeets. I work full time as an educator so most of the year I am only available weekends. However I am currently available during weekdays due to spring break. I would be happy to care for your pet in my home or at your home if that is your preference. I have one dog at home which would be kept in a different area.
About: I have always been a dog owner my entire life, this is actually the first time where I do not have a dog, I am waiting for the right moment, but I would love to be around dogs and being able to be a huge help for all pet parents :) I work full time and am a student. Pet sitting would help so much in earning extra money. I love animals and would be happy to meet new ones. I will always make sure your pet is within my sight, I will ensure doors are not left open and when outside I will always ensure the safety of your fur baby.
“Farrah is a wonderful sitter. I was out of the country for 2 weeks and she took great care of my cat. He can be a handful sometimes but she did great. She regularly updated me and was very communicative and responsive. Will book with Farrah again!”
About: I have been a pet owner my entire life and have experience caring for a wide range of breeds, from small to large dogs. I also have experience with senior dogs, special-needs dogs, and administering medication when needed. I’m very patient and attentive with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and completely at home while they’re in my care. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. I currently have full availability for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-in care. My partner and I both work from home, which means pets staying with us get plenty of attention and are rarely left alone for extended periods. Because we’re home throughout the day, I’m also able to accommodate frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication schedules, and pets who may need a little extra companionship or supervision. I live in a spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom townhouse in a gated community with a private side yard, giving your pup plenty of room to relax, play, and feel comfortable. Our neighborhood is great for walks, and there is also a dog park just up the hill for pups who enjoy some extra exercise and outdoor time. There’s plenty of indoor space for beds, toys, crates, and quiet areas for dogs who prefer having their own space.
“Kim was super nice, friendly and professional and she was great with Nala! Made sure to send me pics and keep me updating while I was gone and Nala seemed really happy and taken care of. I would definitely work with her again! 🫶🏼”
About: Ever since I was little I’ve always had an unbelievable love for animals. I have been caring for pets since I was 12 years old, watching family, friends and neighbors dogs. I have also been working as a Veterinary Assistant/tech since 2021 and have my degree in Veterinary Technology. Caring for animals has always been my true love in life. I treat every pet as if they are my own, ensuring they receive love, attention, and the care they deserve, including never ending belly rubs. I’m committed to providing a safe and enjoyable experience not only your pets but you as an owner as well. Whether it’s an energetic pup or a senior pet who needs a bit more patience my goal remains the same. Need a cat sitter? I would love to watch your fur baby, do drop in visits or whatever else you may need. I understand the boundaries cats may have with touch and new people. I would love to meet you and your pet! I am currently working at an animal hospital in Encino and typically work Sunday-Wednesday 8am-7pm. Depending on the distance, I will be able to check in your pet during my lunch break at work. I am pretty flexible on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I want not only your fur baby to be comfortable and feel safe but I want you as a pet owner to feel the same. I will treat your home with the utmost respect.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, but my biggest experience comes from raising my two Blue Heelers from puppies. My oldest is 15 years old and my other is 7, so I’ve had years of experience learning how different dogs can be at every stage of life. Blue Heelers are smart, energetic, and definitely have their own personalities, so raising them has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, exercise, and understanding a dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with high energy pups that want to play and stay active, but I also know how important it is to slow things down and give older dogs the extra attention and patience they need. What I think sets me apart is that I don’t see dog sitting as just feeding a dog and taking them outside. I actually enjoy getting to know each dog their personality, their routine, what makes them comfortable, and what makes them happy. I’ll give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else, so my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pup is being treated like family while you’re away. I work a part-time job, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to give dogs the attention and exercise they need. I’m available any time on weekdays and weekends, which gives me plenty of time to play, walk, feed, and spend quality time with them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I really enjoy being around dogs. When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I treat their home and their pets with the same care and respect I would my own. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep their pets on their normal routine, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, food, and fresh water. I also keep the space clean and secure and provide updates so the owner knows their pets are doing well.
“Went above and beyond to make sure that I felt comfortable, followed all directions and was very attentive and very flexible. Will definitely use her anytime. I’m in vegas thank you so much Cyndi .”
About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds and have much experience helping friends and family with their fur babies. I currently live with a fur baby and would do anything for her. I would love to continue helping others in anyway I can. I am very trustworthy and will do anything to help leaving your fur baby easier for you. I am currently working a part time job so I have plenty of time to help and dedicate my time in anyway I can to play with the fur babies and make you and your pet comfortable. I am very trustworthy and will respect any and everything for the home of the pets. I am very respectful and believe I can make you and your pets very comfortable. I will send update pictures and videos as we play and wait for owners to come home.
“Jessica did a great job watching my pup. We received multiple pictures and quick replies to messages. Ana seemed super tired when we got home, which is a plus in our book because we know she got the proper exercise and love while we were away.”
About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. Cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time. My responsibilities included walking, playing, feeding and even reading to them (which I have on good authority was very adorable). I'm very excited to take care of your fur babies for you! Fear Free Leader in Animal Wellbeing graduate. *Ask me about Active & Running services* **Ask me about Pet Portraiture Add-ons** I am currently taking online classes and looking forward to being with animals when I can part time. I am looking forward to meeting new pets and taking care of them in between bouts of homework and studying. I am available for most services! Including drop-in check-ins, letting dogs out to do their business or go on walks or play with your pets. I'm also available to pet-sit and keep them company while they relax in their space. After meeting your pets and learning their specific and unique needs, likes or dislikes, I am available to feed, walk, play most days.
About: I got my puppy in high school and potty trained her, bathed her regularly, and took her on walks for as long as she wanted. I love staying active and will happily keep your dog moving. I also have years of experience with cats and kittens, including bottle feeding, monthly baths, grooming, playtime, and keeping their litter areas fresh and tidy. I pay close attention to each pet's moods and tendencies, so I can tell what they need and adapt to their routines. I treat every pet like family❤️❤️ I currently do not work except for some weekends that I officiate volleyball. Overall, I’m very free on weekdays and on most weekends. I have a reliable car and am flexible with mileage/minutes. I care for pets in a safe, fun, and spotless environment. I'm a type A person who loves cleaning and keeping things tidy, so your home and your pet's space will always be left neat and organized. I have two friendly cats of my own, so I'm comfortable around animals and know how to keep them relaxed, safe, and entertained.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chatsworth
Yana stayed at our home and took wonderful care of our Charlie girl during our six-day trip! She sent photo and video updates that gave us so much peace of mind. When the power went out at our house, she handled everything with ease, taking Charlie to her home and even moving all of Charlie’s frozen food to her own freezer so it wouldn’t spoil. We were so grateful for her thoughtfulness and flexibility! Her husband was also very kind and helped when we picked Charlie up. Yana truly went above and beyond, and we would happily book with her again!
Julia spent a full week with my two small dogs while I traveled. She was incredible. They are timid rescues. She won them over! She is so patient and gentle. She took the best care of them, walked them, and communicated with me all week long. She sent videos and photos daily. My dogs adore her and so do I
Sky was incredible with our pups and with our home. She navigated several challenges seemlessly which included our pup having some loose stool, house repair men arriving throughout her stay as well as getting one of our very picky pups to eat. She left our house extremely tidy and washed and made the guest bedroom perfectly. It was a joy to come back to happy pups and a clean home! She communicated with us throughout our trip the exact right amount. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sky! She is a gem and we feel very blessed to have found her for all our pup care needs.
I appreciated Emily’s observational skills and calm response to my dog being sick while I was gone. She took good care of her and used good common sense in caring for our dog. Our dog was happy and seemed fully recovered when we returned home. The house was clean and she went beyond to make sure everything was back to normal when we returned. Thank you.
Bouvier was above and beyond communicative and caring of our 2 senior Golden Retrievers, one with medical needs and the other that developed a medical need while we were gone. We felt in the loop the entire time although we were a Continent away. She took over sitting in between another sitter’s stay and was more than willing to communicate personally with her about the status of the pups. We are grateful to Bouvier and look forward to having her our pups in the future.
Absolutely outstanding care of my young rescue. Jasmine took the time to come to my home before the actual sitting date to ensure it would be easier on my dog when staying with a new person. Jasmine stayed for close to an hour until my dog calmed down and engaged in play with her. She brought her own treats. My dog adores her and I will definitely request Jasmine in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Chatsworth is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $67 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Chatsworth 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 Chatsworth 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 Chatsworth 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.
