“Kristen was amazing! We came home from our vacation to a clean house and very happy pup! She was very easy to communicate with from the very beginning, and she sent several updates throughout the stay. We felt so comfortable leaving our fur baby in her hands, and we absolutely plan to book her again in the future!!”

About: I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including my own two Bloodhounds, who each weigh around 115 pounds, and a Great Pyrenees. Caring for large breeds has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each dog’s individual needs. I’m also experienced with farming and caring for animals, so I’m comfortable handling larger animals and working in outdoor environments. I’m dependable, attentive, and passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I care for dogs every day, making sure they receive proper attention, exercise, food, water, and companionship. I also have experience cat-sitting for three cats each year, including feeding, refreshing their water, cleaning litter boxes, and spending time with them. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I do my best to keep them comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m committed to being dependable and treating every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routines to help them feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while their owners are away. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime, and a clean environment. For dogs, I provide regular walks, outdoor time, and companionship. For cats, I take care of feeding, litter box cleaning, and playtime while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I strive to provide reliable, loving care while keeping owners updated on how their pets are doing.
“I am so pleased with the entire experience. Charish is kind, punctual and professional. She communicates well with us during her time here. Best of all, our dogs loved her. They were very content when we got home.”
About: I’ve grown up with animals and have my own dog and cat at home, so caring for pets is genuinely my favorite thing to do. I’m completely obsessed with dogs and puppies—if there’s a pup around, that’s immediately who I’m hanging out with! Having my own pets means I totally get how much they mean to you and how important it is to keep their routines consistent. Puppies especially hold a special place in my heart—I love their goofy energy, and I have zero problem keeping up with their constant play, extra supervision, and endless curiosity. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch until they’re tired out, giving endless belly rubs, or just hanging out keeping them company, I treat every pet like my absolute best friend. You can totally relax knowing your fur baby is getting all the love, attention, and fun they could ever ask for while you’re away! I have watched dogs before, both dog sitting at their house and taking dogs for walks as well! Because I’m currently in school and don’t have a full-time job right now, my schedule is super open and flexible! Having that extra free time means I can give your pets tons of one-on-one attention, adapt easily to their specific daily routines, and never have to rush through a visit. I easily balance my schoolwork with pet care, so I'm around to offer steady companionship, frequent pot-ty breaks, and long walks throughout the day. Whether your pup needs midday play sessions to burn off puppy energy or your cat just wants someone hanging out nearby while I study, my open schedule allows me to give them all the time, love, and focus they deserve. I am pretty avabliable most afternoons after 12 and in between in the mornings when I dont have class and am defiently open to dog sitting at your hosue as well overnight! Because I live on campus, I don't host pets in my own place, but I absolutely love doing house sitting and drop-in care right in your home! Staying at your house is the best setup for your pets because they get to stay in their comfortable, familiar environment without any of the stress of moving around. When I stay at your home, your pet's happiness, routine, and comfort are my top priorities: Keeping Their Routine Normal: I follow their exact schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and bedtime so everything feels completely seamless for them while you're away. Tons of Quality Time: Since my schedule is super flexible, I spend plenty of downtime at your home hanging out, studying, and giving your dogs, puppies, or cats all the play, affection, and belly rubs they could want. Respecting Your Space: I treat your house with complete care and respect, leaving it just as neat and tidy as I found it. Regular Updates: I always send photos and quick check-ins so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing.
“Destiny was so amazing!!! She waited longer than the booking so Cassidy wouldn’t be alone at home until I could get there. Would highly recommend her to watch your loved pets anytime!!”
About: Hi, I'm Carley or most know me as Angelina! I have been caring for furry fiends all my life! I have had a several goldens, yorkies, and my current little guy is a german short haired pointer! I absolutely love getting to play, walk, or snuggle with any pet of any size! I definitely believe the saying that a dog is a mans best friend and believe that we should treat our animals as such.I as a fellow dog mom understand how important it is to have someone you can trust watching a member of your family. I believe spending just a few hours with an pet (or human, in their case) can change the whole mood for the day. I am fairly flexible and willing to work with you to make sure your family member is cared for! From walking and check ins, to pet sitting, or even spending your day out with your four legged friend, I know your little friend will be loved and happy in my care. I feel comfortable feeding, playing with, walking, and even taking your pets on outings! My work schedule is a set one, so I can stop by before work, during my lunch break, or after work and anytime during the weekends. If you need something a little bit different let me know and I am happy to accommodate your needs! I have a huge yard that all dogs love to run in and I live in a private neighborhood that is perfect for walking in.
About: Caring for animals is a big part of my life! I currently work at a veterinary clinic and have experience caring for many different types of animals. I know how much your pets mean to you, and my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and give them plenty of personal attention. I’d love to become someone you and your pets can count on! I work a couple of days a week at a veterinary hospital and I get 2 hrs for lunch so im available to care for your fur babies as needed I available to care for your pets as you would and my goal is to keep them happy and healthy and on schedule that you provide me with.
“This was my first time ever using a dog sitter for my three babies. She was absolutely pleasant, and loved my animals. Took very good care of them for the duration while I was away. I do believe that my fur babies loved her too. You can always tell from their reaction when they were introduced to her and when I returned home. I would definitely recommend Sonya and will definitely use her again when needed .”
About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs my whole life. Friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets when they are out of town. I’m currently working part-time from 4am-8am and I have plenty of free time to give your pet the love that they deserve when you are at work or on vacation. From my house to your house your pet will be loved and taken care of. I love hikes or just seating at home and petting your loved one.
“She took great care of our two dogs. One of them has tons of energy and Laura played lots of ball. I felt great peace of mind that they were being well loved and cared for while I was gone.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I’ve been watching my friends and my friends families animals for a few years now while they vacation or anything comes up. I’ve done the walking, the repetitive throws back and forth, and the quick check in during a storm just to make sure they haven’t chewed the house to pieces. I’m naturally an early bird so checking in earlier then my normal 6-3ish work schedule isn’t an issue and anytime after I’m usually free I have a fenced in run area for free running if they’d like. My porch is screened in so they can have the outside time without getting out.
About: I’ve always had a pet as long as I can remember. I love dogs but allergic to cats. I spoil and treat them like family!!! I currently work full-time out of the home as a clinical assistant t for a Pediatric practice. Im definitely willing to spend my weekends loving on your fur baby. I live in a gated apartment community with a spacious dog park. Taking as least 2 walks a day is my norm, more if needed.

The average cost of House Sitting in Chatsworth is $59 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $89 per night.

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 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.
