“Lisa was great and obviously cares about animals. We couldn’t be happier with her services and will have her over again next time we travel! She’s a great person and I highly recommend her.”
“Phenomenal engagement with both of my pups and very comfortable with them considering they are big dogs. Would absolutely have him come and dog sit with my pups again. I know they enjoyed their time with him.”
“Marx took great care of my senior citizen pup while I was away and communicated effectively when he had questions, or needing clarification. I also got sick while on my travels and Marx so graciously was able to stay another day so I could recover and enjoy the remainder of my trip. My dog seemed happy and well taken care of when I returned home. I would definitely use and recommend Marx again to others.”
“Letitia has hung with our dog a few times now, and it always goes great! She just did an overnight for the first time, and went above and beyond by comforting our dog through a wind storm in the middle of the night. She is very responsive and friendly, and we’re so thankful for her.”
“Wendy took such good care of my cats. I have a new kitten in addition to my two adult cats and she had to maneuver feeding them in 3 areas and spending time with each cat. They were happy and well cared for when I got home.”
“We are so grateful for Amirah! She stayed with our dogs, Maggie and Zara, for almost two weeks, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. She treats our girls like they’re her own—she even brings them little gifts every time she visits, which is such a thoughtful touch (and the dogs absolutely love her for it!). What really stands out is how attentive she is to both of their needs. Amirah does separate walks to accommodate each of the girls, making sure they get exactly the kind of attention and exercise they need. We always feel completely at ease knowing our pups are in her hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and genuinely caring, look no further. Amirah is wonderful, and we’re so lucky to have found her! 🐾💛”

“Kellar took great care of our pups (and house) while we were out of town! Kellar was great with updates and pictures, and was quick to check in when our old lady, Maggi, wasn’t eating (don’t worry, she was just holding out for the good stuff). Both pups were relaxed and happy when we got home - we would definitely ask Kellar to stay with Raffles and Maggi again!”
“Charlotte took such great care of my two pups! We were gone for 5 days and she cared for the pups like her own. She kept us updated throughout the whole time, sent pictures, made sure the dogs were fed, and gave them all the cuddles and belly rubs! Our flight home got delayed and charlotte was willing to stay a bit longer to keep the dogs company. She even fed them their dinner and let them out before we got home so that we didn’t have to worry about it when we got back. So grateful for her!”
About: I come from a genuine position of wanting to understand how the animal is feeling and what is motivating their behavior. I have experience with cats and dogs from growing up with them and from pet sitting as a kid. I also worked at an animal sanctuary so I have experience with the animals such as pigs, chickens, ducks, and goats. I treat all animals with compassion and care. They are like children in that they each have unique personalities, and deserve autonomy, while at the same time needing to be cared for and protected. I am always learning about how to better communicate with animals and understand their needs. From watching videos to taking classes and reading books, I seek out new perspectives on animal behavior because it is an ever-changing field of study A couple years ago, when my dog started peeing in the house, punishment was not on my mind, I could see from her body language that she felt bad and wasn't doing it on purpose so I had her checked out and learned it was a medical problem not a behavioral one. This is the type of care I will bring to your pets. I'm currently working part-time with flexible hours so I'll be able to stop by multiple times or even stay with your pet for hours or days. I have a fenced yard and quiet neighbors. I am respectful of other people's homes, I leave things the way I find them and do my best to understand the unique needs, routines and personality of every animal.
“Anthony was so patient with our boy. He tried everything to get him to take his meds, walked him and hung out with him, establishing trust. We were very nervous about having a new sitter. And 13 dog doesn’t adapt well. But Tony did a great job.”
“Jubilee and I were very happy with Isabella! She took great care of her. Food, meds, walks and backyard play. There were end of the day pictures and updates on what their day consisted of. My home was also well take care of; clean and just the way I left it when I returned. Thank you Isabella! I’ll definitely request you again!”
“Taryn was amazing with our pup, Zelda! She was very communicative and went above and beyond by staying with Zelda the entire time. Zelda has extreme separation anxiety, so knowing she was never left alone gave us peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciated how caring and attentive Taryn was and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable sitter. We will definitely book with her again whenever she’s available!”
“Rachel was absolutely amazing from start to finish! She was very prompt with her response to my initial query, quickly scheduled a meet and greet, and came prepared with questions. She is very professional, reliable, and absolutely loves animals. Buster had a great time with Rachel! She stayed with him for three days and I came home to a spotless home and a happy dog. She reviewed all the instructions in depth and consistently provided me with updates and cute little videos of Buster. I will absolutely be using Rachel again in the future and can wholeheartedly recommend her to others.”
“Shanise is going to be the best sitter you’ll ever have. She followed every instruction, sent us photos on every feeding/walking/potty time and updated us on how my dog is doing. She really helped relax our nerves while we were away from my baby boy. As long as she’s available, I would hire her to take care of my dog for the foreseeable future.”
“Zoe did an AMAZING job of watching my two kitties (and my house) for TEN DAYS! My house was clean and, more importantly, my kitties were safe and happy. She kept me up to date on everything every day. I would HIGHLY recommend Zoe (and her b-friend) with whom to entrust your pets and house. Very trustworthy, clean, communicative, and honest. Will hire them many times more, if I can.”
About: Hi! I'm Renae, a lifelong animal lover with a calm, gentle personality and a genuine passion for caring for pets. I know how important it is to feel confident and worry free when you're away, so I focus on safety, communication, and lots of love. I care for pets the way I care for my own, with patience, attention and respect for their routine. I would love to meet your pets and help make your time away easier and stress free. I've designed my schedule around providing reliable, loving attention to every animal I look after seamlessly integrating walks, feeding times and playtime into my flow. I can dog sit 2 pets from same household. Pet care naturally fits into my daily and weekly routine because it blends seamlessly with the rhythm of my home life. Each day includes dedicated time for feeding, fresh water, walks, play and simple check-ins to make sure pets feel calm, comfortable, and loved. I structure my schedule so that pet visits are spaced throughout the day, allowing me to give each animal my full attention and unhurried care.

Sara did an incredible job staying with my 2 dogs for nine nights while we visited family back East. She sent lots of updates, was extremely communicative, and kept our place super clean for our return! We will absolutely be booking her again for future trips :)
We were gone for 12 days while Rachel took great care of our 2 Golden Retrievers. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs. She’s mature, professional and an excellent communicator. She messaged us daily with updates and lots of pictures. We very much appreciated that she walked and brushed the dogs daily and kept them safe. Rachel took the time to try to understand any concerns we had and she asked lots of questions and we explained they were each on a different food as one is on a prescription diet. She also brought them a ball which was very thoughtful and sweet. We can highly recommend Rachel, we would hire her again.
Taryn was amazing with our pup, Zelda! She was very communicative and went above and beyond by staying with Zelda the entire time. Zelda has extreme separation anxiety, so knowing she was never left alone gave us peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciated how caring and attentive Taryn was and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable sitter. We will definitely book with her again whenever she’s available!
Charlotte house set and watched my cat for almost 2 weeks while I was out of the country. She was very communicative and kept me well updated with pictures and videos! Also was really flexible with us the day before when my cat had a bit of a medical situation which resulted in her needing a bit of extra attention and medical care while I was away.
Melanie was wonderful with our dogs! She made sure they were well cared for and got plenty of playtime, and we loved getting photos and videos multiple times a day — it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. She's warm, caring, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for dogsitting!
Lily is wonderful as always! She is the only one that my kitties always feel comfortable around, they really love her. I can always relax on vacation knowing that she is taking care of my kitties. She sends the best pictures and updates as well. Always highly recommend her!
Thank you Kellar for taking such good care of our senior pup! We were nervous about going away for the weekend and leaving our dog at home since he is starting to show his age. Kellar was great about sending us updates and taking extra special care of our dog when he had some anxious nights while we were gone.
Marx took great care of my senior citizen pup while I was away and communicated effectively when he had questions, or needing clarification. I also got sick while on my travels and Marx so graciously was able to stay another day so I could recover and enjoy the remainder of my trip. My dog seemed happy and well taken care of when I returned home. I would definitely use and recommend Marx again to others.
Myra was able to handle my crazy calicos and my chinchilla with no problem! I have yet to find a pet sitter who is so detailed, care oriented, and well versed in exotic pets. She even gave my cats a nice groom! My medium haired looks fluffier than ever :). As for my chinchilla, I usually have to sweat over the fact that people have never even seen one before. She knew exactly what to feed him, pet him, clean his cage, and he was the calmest I’ve ever see him post trip. Left the apartment and litter boxes immaculate! Will be booking again.
We recently had Charlotte stay in our home for four days to watch our dogs, and overall we had a positive experience. She’s a young college student, very sweet, and affordable, Our dogs were clearly well cared for and kept company all weekend. She sent daily pictures of the pups and when we got home, the dogs were happy and completely exhausted from all the attention and activity! The house was left clean, and she even made the bed before leaving, which was a thoughtful touch. Overall, she’s a great sitter who kept our pups happy. 💕 We’d recommend her to anyone looking for an attentive in-home sitter that gives dogs lots of companionship.
Simply put LIANNA IS THE BEST!! I totally forgot to leave Lianna a review the first time she cared for my beloved pup for me but on both occasions she has been exceptional. She is so accommodating, responsive, responsible and trustworthy. My dog adores her and it’s clear to see from the videos she takes for me. I feel so lucky to have found Lianna, you couldn’t ask for a better sitter. If you’re reading this, look no further and just do yourself a favor and hire Lianna!
Dana and her boyfriend Tom were great. Our dog, Sadie, was very comfortable with them and it was obvious that they liked her. Dana is very easy to talk to and was willing to do whatever we asked of her. I recommend Dana to anyone without reservations. We will definitely book her again if we need a sitter for Sadie. It was our first experience with Rover. It was a little confusing for us when we first tried to book Dana but with Dana's guidance it worked out fine.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Claremont on Rover is $48.84 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 10,862 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Claremont. 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 Claremont 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 Claremont 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 Claremont 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Claremont. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
